After a while, Huang Hao and the three came to the mouth of a cave in the back mountain. The two men in brown short-clothed men guarding the entrance of the cave hurriedly knelt on the ground when they saw the arrival of Huang Hao and the others, their expressions were very cowering and cautious, as if they were about to face a catastrophe if they were not careful. Huang Hao ignored the guards kneeling on the ground, and walked into the cave quickly, and Zhang Dajiang and Sun Hanchu also walked into the cave quickly with gloomy faces.

The two men in brown who were kneeling on the ground looked at each other and stood up. The young man on the left whispered to the bearded middle-aged man beside him, "Brother Xu, what's going on?" The island owner, Elder Zhang, and Sun all had dark faces, did something happen?"

Brother Xu, who was full of beard, whispered in frustration: "What else can it be, it's not the trouble caused by the kid from the Qishan faction who escaped last few days." ”

"Wow, the Qishan faction kid is so good! can you sneak out of here?" said the young man with a look of surprise.

Brother Xu glared at the young man angrily and said, "That's your kid's fate, and he just went out of the island with Elder Chu to buy and was not on duty, otherwise there would be no good fruit to eat." ”

The young man looked shocked and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Well, I don't know if it's heavy or not, but I haven't seen them since that day. ”

"You won't be put to death, will you?"

Brother Xu whispered with a frightened expression: "It's okay to be executed, it may have turned into a stake." ”

The young man looked at Brother Xu with fear on his face when he heard this, and it took a long time before he spit out a few words: "Won't it? That's my own person!"

Brother Xu said helplessly: "What are your own people? Don't you know the methods of the island owner and the elders? They don't treat us as human beings, as long as someone who doesn't go along with him will either be executed or maimed." If you want to live longer, keep your mouth shut and don't be too high-profile. ”

The young man's expression was straight, and he bowed slightly to Brother Xu and said, "Knowing Brother Xu, I won't talk too much, I must be low-key." ”

Brother Xu nodded and said, "If it weren't for the friendship with your brother, I wouldn't have told you this." Hello, do it. ”

"Yes, yes, it's Brother Xu, I'll be cautious. ”

......

In the back mountain of Juling Island, under the operation of the Huang Hao brothers for many years, a main cave and many small caves have been excavated in the back mountain. Previously, the disciples of Djinn Island lived in these caves, and the main cave was very spacious and could accommodate more than 100 people, which was originally their meeting place. Hundreds of small caves are their dwellings. A few years ago, the island of Giant Spirit was attached to the dark forces in black clothes, and the mansion in front of the mountain was built. These caves were also used as captivity stakes, which were used to refine medicine people. The stump in the mouth of the disciples of Giant Spirit Island is really a living person. Most of them are fishermen who go out to sea to fish, and a few are martial arts people with martial arts.

At this time, Huang Hao was sitting on a mahogany Taishi chair in the center of the main cave, flipping through the scrolls on the mahogany book case with a gloomy face. Zhang Dajiang and Sun Hanchu shrunk their waists and stood in front of the big bookcase, looking at Huang Hao with fearful expressions.

A young girl walked over with a wooden tray and a cup of Ming tea on the tray. Zhang Dajiang cleverly took the teacup on the girl's tray, bowed over his hands and served it, and said flatteringly: "The island owner, please drink tea." ”

"Well, put it down. Huang Hao replied without raising his head, and continued to flip through the scrolls in his hands.

Zhang Dajiang carefully whispered: "Island master, the temperature of the tea is just right. You always drink first, moisten your throat and then look at it. ”

Huang Hao glanced at Zhang Dajiang with a gloomy face, picked up the teacup on the bookcase, and took a sip of Ming tea. Yin Sheng said: "Why is the survival rate of piles with martial arts lower than that of ordinary people?"

When Sun Hanchu heard this, he hurriedly bowed his body and responded in a trembling voice: "The island master, the subordinates don't know, probably because the pile wood without martial arts is more malleable than the pile wood with martial arts, right?"

Huang Hao slammed the file in his hand on the bookcase, and shouted in a deep voice: "Didn't you do an investigation?"

When Sun Hanchu saw Huang Hao angry, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he said in a trembling voice: "Subordinate...... The subordinates have investigated, that is...... It's just that the reason can't be investigated. "The sound behind it is inaudible.

"Say what, be loud!" Huang Hao glared at Zhang Dajiang angrily and shouted.

Sun Hanchu's legs were weak and he knelt down with a 'plop', and said in a trembling voice: "Island Master, subordinates...... Subordinates have ...... If you have done a survey, it is ...... It's just not ...... No cause was found. ”

"Rice buckets, they're all a bunch of rice buckets. Huang Hao stood up angrily, glared at Sun Hanchu and asked, "Did you feed you medicine according to the recipe given to you by this seat?"

Sun Hanchu replied in a trembling voice: "Yes, they are all fed according to your old formula." ”

"All the same dose?"

"Yes. It's all the same dose. Sun Hanchu said affirmatively.

Huang Hao sat back in the Taishi chair in silence.

Zhang Dajiang stepped forward in cringe and said, "Island owner, if there is something unclear among your subordinates, please ask the island owner to analyze and make a judgment." ”

Huang Hao looked at Zhang Dajiang angrily and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The subordinates found that these piles that exceeded expectations were all martial arts. Although those ordinary fishermen have a high survival rate, they are generally not very ideal, even if they become medicine people, their attack power is not enough, and they do not pose a threat to second-rate masters in the martial arts. On the contrary, the medicine people made of the stakes with martial arts have quite amazing attack power, and they can directly threaten the first-class masters in the martial arts. Zhang Dajiang said carefully.

Huang Hao looked at Zhang Dajiang and said, "Why have you tested it?"

"Lord Yu, before February, the Holy Envoy came and took away ten medicine men, including four medicine men made of stakes with martial arts and six ordinary stakes. After the holy envoy used these medicines, there was a message coming over, and his subordinates knew about it. There is a flying pigeon under you to pass a letter to the island owner, haven't you received it?" Zhang Dajiang said in surprise.

Huang Hao also looked at Zhang Dajiang in surprise and asked, "Did you pass the book to me?

"That was two months ago, after the Holy Envoy took the medicine man. The subordinates will fly the pigeon and pass the book to you old. I haven't seen you reply to the letter, and my subordinates have mentioned it to Elder Sun. Zhang Dajiang said and looked at Sun Hanchu and said.

Sun Hanchu also bowed and said: "Yes, more than a month ago, my subordinates asked the island owner for something, and they released carrier pigeons three times in succession, but they didn't wait for your old instructions, and their subordinates talked to Elder Zhang privately. Elder Zhang also told his subordinates about reporting to you that the Holy Envoy had taken away the ten medicine men, but he did not receive your elder's instructions. ”

Huang Hao looked at Sun Zhang and the others with a gloomy face, and said, "In the more than half a year since I left the island, how many times have you sent me letters?"

Zhang Dajiang hurriedly said: "My subordinates send it twice a month on average, I don't know if Elder Sun sends it every month?"

Sun Hanchu bowed and hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates have passed a letter to the island owner on the first day of the new year every month, and if there is an emergency, I will send it several times." ”

Huang Hao asked with a gloomy face, "Then have you ever received a letter from this seat?"

Zhang Dajiang looked at Sun Hanchu and said: "My subordinates have received the second transmission from the island owner, but it was the month when you first left the island, and you never received it later. I wonder if Elder Sun has received a letter from the island master?"

Sun Hanchu looked at Zhang Dajiang and said, "No, if you receive a letter from the island owner, I will definitely read it with you." ”

"What's going on? Could it be that those carrier pigeons got lost, or were they intercepted halfway?" Huang Hao thought of this, his eyes flashed fiercely. Said to Zhang Sun and the others: "You guys go down, this seat will study the formula of the medicine man carefully." ”

Zhang Sun and the others bowed their waists and hugged their fists and said, "Yes, the subordinates retired." With that, he turned and walked out of the cave.
