Chapter 347: In Vain
After repelling the Wuqi tribe, the situation on Jinsha Island and its surrounding areas temporarily became stable and calm.
Although this is likely to be a prelude to the coming storm, at least people living on and off the island can take a breath.
As the waterway was reopened, merchant ships appeared at the dock of Jinsha Island again.
Brought a large amount of supplies.
Of course, there were also people who were not optimistic about the prospects of the Jinsha Gang and left this troubled place with the help of merchant ships.
But more refugees ran over.
For a while, the situation on Jinsha Island changed, and people were waiting in anxiety and uneasiness.
That afternoon, Zhang Yuan was practicing martial arts in the yard, and Wang Wu, who had gone out to inquire about the news, hurried back.
He excitedly reported to Zhang Yuan: "Master, there is news about the White Wolf!"
Hmm?
Zhang Yuan immediately asked: "Where is it?"
Zhang Yuan has been in Damengze for a month or two, and has not found any clues about the White Wolf.
He once suspected that this celestial being who sneaked into this world may have left Damengze.
Go somewhere else.
I didn't expect that there would be news now.
"On Qingzhu Island."
Wang Wu swallowed his saliva: "I brought the person who found the white wolf here, he is outside."
Zhang Yuan said without hesitation: "Let him in!"
Wang Wu quickly brought a thin young man to Zhang Yuan.
The other party was in his early twenties and looked very smart.
As soon as he saw Zhang Yuan, he immediately bowed and saluted: "My Lord!"
"No need to be polite."
Zhang Yuan waved his hand: "Tell me the situation in detail."
The man brought by Wang Wu is called Xiao Liang, a Xia people living on Qingzhu Island.
He is also a first-level Mingjin warrior like Wang Wu.
Qingzhu Island is nearly a hundred miles away from Jinsha Island. It is a medium-sized land island within the sphere of influence of the Jinsha Gang.
There are tens of thousands of residents on the island, which is relatively prosperous.
Although Qingzhu Island has also been harassed by the Wuqi tribe in the past period of time.
But it has not fallen.
Xiao Liang was a local tyrant on Qingzhu Island. He had been in the lower class for a long time and often did some sneaky things.
Just three days ago, he met a man in white on the street.
Because he looked like a fat sheep, he had the idea of touching him.
As a result, Xiao Liang was discovered by the man in white just as he was about to make a move.
The other party smiled at him.
At that time, Xiao Liang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he was cold from head to soles.
Most of his souls and spirits were lost!
Especially the other party's eyes were very scary. Although he had a smile on his face, his eyes were extremely cold and cruel.
Xiao Liang felt that he was going to die!
Fortunately, although the man in white gave him a great shock, he did not really make a move.
When Xiao Liang came to his senses, the other party had disappeared in the crowd.
Later, Xiao Liang returned home and suddenly remembered Wang Wu's reward.
He turned out the portrait from under the bed, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the other party was likely to be the person Wang Wu was looking for.
Although the appearance of the man in white was very different from the portrait.
But the look in his eyes was really similar.
And Wang Wu also said that the other party was good at changing his appearance.
It happened that the Jinsha Gang drove out the forces of the Wuqi tribe during this period, so Xiao Liang hired a boat to come to Jinsha Island and asked someone to pass the message to Wang Wu.
Then Wang Wu, who received the message, rushed to the outside of the island and brought him back in the name of Zhang Yuan.
Otherwise, Xiao Liang would not be qualified to go to the island.
And this Xiao Liang also brought a portrait he drew himself.
Although his painting skills were very poor, he roughly depicted the appearance of the man in white he met.
With the specific description, it was clear enough.
"Let's go."
After listening, Zhang Yuan said decisively: "Let's go to Qingzhu Island now."
He also told Wang Wu: "You don't have to go with you, stay here to look after the house."
Wang Wu naturally had no objection.
So Zhang Yuan took Xiao Liang and took a speedboat to Qingzhu Island.
Zhang Yuan personally rowed the boat, and the boat reached the destination before sunset.
After landing on Qingzhu Island, he took out two gold bars from his arms and handed them to Xiao Liang: "This is a reward for you. If you catch the person, there will be another big reward."
Zhang Yuan did not need the other party to lead the way or anything.
No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
But he made an appointment with Xiao Liang to let the latter mobilize his connections on the island to search for the whereabouts of the man in white.
Once there is news, notify Zhang Yuan immediately.
In order to increase the probability of finding the person, Zhang Yuan personally searched on Qingzhu Island again.
In fact, at this time, Zhang Yuan has another choice.
That is the tracking talisman brought by the stimulation.
The tracking talisman given to him by Huizhi has an effective range of fifty miles, which is enough to cover Qingzhu Island.
But Zhang Yuan thought about it and did not use this talisman that can only be used once for the time being.
Because he could not be sure now that the person Xiao Liang met was Bailang.
If it was wrong, this precious tracking talisman would be wasted, and it would be extremely difficult to find the target again.
So Zhang Yuan suppressed this tempting idea.
According to the previous agreement with Xiao Liang, Zhang Yuan first stayed in the inn on the island.
Then he strolled around outside from morning to night, or went to restaurants, teahouses and other crowded places to try his luck.
At the same time, Zhang Yuan also controlled the red-eyed crow to search for uninhabited areas on the island.
Qingzhu Island is rich in bamboo for building houseboats, and a large part of the land island is covered by bamboo forests.
If the white wolf is hiding in it, it will be difficult to find it even with the red-eyed crows.
But Zhang Yuan felt that a celestial being from another world, who was also a violent and perverse person, would not be able to live a hard life in the bamboo forest like a hermit.
Therefore, the focus of the search was still in densely populated areas.
As a result, for three consecutive days, Zhang Yuan did not encounter the white-clothed man who was suspected to be the white wolf mentioned by Xiao Liang.
As for Xiao Liang, he also did not find the target.
The other party seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth.
After searching for another two days, there was still no result.
Zhang Yuan, who had tried in vain, was completely disappointed and had to choose to leave.
After all, he could not stay on this land island forever.
Of course, Zhang Yuan did not ask Xiao Liang to stop.
But he felt that hope was very slim.
With a bit of resentment, Zhang Yuan returned to Jinsha Island.
The next morning, he sailed out to find trouble with the Wuqi barbarians.
Although the Wuqi tribe was repelled, the Jinsha Gang did not withdraw the bounty for the barbarians.
In the past period of time, foreign warriors including Zhang Yuan dealt a heavy blow to the Wuqi barbarians.
Others did not have the strength of Zhang Yuan, so they formed a hunting team to hunt down the Wuqi barbarians everywhere, and the results were quite rich.
Now that the situation has changed, it is not easy to hunt the Wuqi barbarians again.
It is necessary to go to a farther place, and it is more dangerous!
