After listening to the old man's self-introduction, Zhang Lisheng learned that he was a deputy inspector of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Gate of Death's guardian of the Three Great Mountain Gates of Witchcraft's Life, Death, and Sacrifice. A complicated expression crept upon his face.
The young man became silent for a while before asking even though he already knew the answer, "Oh, so it's Senior Ouyang. Since you also have a Chinese official identity, just like Consultant Zheng, then is it possible that you've come to Shrimp B1 Island to perform some 'special mission'?"
"Yes and no," Ouyang Boxiong's eyes flickered as he replied in an ambiguous manner. "It's all thanks to these inexplicable foreign worlds that our witchcraft has finally seized the opportunity to turn from the dark to the light. We no longer have to hide anymore but we're still used as cannon fodder by the government.
However, nobody can stop our luck when it comes. A few months ago, a few witchcraft's disciples were sent to this island to pretend to be US devils to search for something. In the end, they found the source of the witchcraft's prosperity … "
When the old man reached here, his tone unknowingly became excited. "Forget about the poisonous insects and strange beasts on this Shrimp Island, the most important thing is that there's actually the Emperor Molasses here. Not only that, the Emperor Molasses can really catalyze the mountain beasts to give birth to a Gold Core and transform into a demon.
The foundation of the witchcraft's Gate of Death and Sacrifice's witchcraft's witchcraft's witchcraft's Gate of Death and Sacrifice is completely determined by the quality of the soul and insect refinement. To us, this island is simply a God-given treasure. It's time for our witchcraft to prosper. By then … "
"But Senior Ouyang, this Shrimp B1 Island is now the US's territory. Can the witchcraft's witchcraft take it away by force?" Zhang Lisheng's words stopped Ouyang Boxiong's imagination and said realistically.
The old man's expression changed right away. The air in the cement room seemed to have condensed. Fortunately, at this moment, another tall and fat old man with a big belly who looked like a Millionaire Buddha chuckled. "Young man, don't think that just because our Three Great Mountain Gates of Witchcraft's Gate of Life, Death, and Sacrifice have been lurking in the dark for thousands of years, our strength must be weak.
That's actually all because of those mongrels from the Daoist School. They're restrained by the Heavenly Dao's rules and can't stretch their hands and feet. Since they claim to be righteous, they've always been willing to be the dogs of the government and work together to suppress us. Otherwise … Hmph …
Of course, it's not appropriate to forcefully seize the island from the hands of those American devils. After all, the power of these rockets and missiles is not to be underestimated. It's better to have a long-term plan. "
The fat old man sounded like he had said a lot, but when you thought about it carefully, the content was very empty. Ouyang Boxiong clapped his hands and said, "Brother Zhu is right. Did you hear that, kid? Everything must be planned carefully.
The most important thing right now is that although our group of people is strong, most of us don't understand the foreign language. Now that we're on the island, even if we have the ability to reach the heavens, we won't be able to display it … "
"You don't know English?" Zhang Lisheng said in a dumbstruck manner, "That means you don't know English?
Then how did all of you manage to sneak into Shrimp B1 Island? Right now, it's still a place where only US citizens are allowed to enter! "
"Young man, you're so rude! How can you interrupt the words of your elders again and again?" Ouyang Boxiong showed a dissatisfied expression but still explained, "Of course, it's the Chinese government who arranged for us to enter the island. Originally, they also followed along with the translators but they're not witchcraft people after all. This time, we're plotting something secretive so we could only let them have an accident."
After saying so, the old man's mouth trembled slightly. The cement floor in the corner suddenly turned over again. Not long after, like taking a scenic elevator, a few middle-aged men who had a strong foreign flavor and looked like they were foreign Chinese emerged one after another from the soil.
"Tsk, it's these few men and women. It's said that they're all international students who graduated from foreign universities.
Sigh, speaking of which, if they're willing to be used by our witchcraft, we might still be able to keep their lives. It's a pity that they've turned into living corpses now. Even though there's the word 'living' in their name, they're indeed dead! " Ouyang Boxiong pointed at the group of living corpses and stared at Zhang Lisheng as he uttered these threatening words. It really complemented his sinister tone, causing one to shudder with fear.
The old man's alternating between being soft and hard, tempting and coercing, caused Zhang Lisheng's expression to change for a long time. In the end, he asked an irrelevant question, "Senior Ouyang, I've read from the ancient book that when the living corpses commanded by the Grand Wizard don't have their souls attached, they should have spiritual wisdom but why do they only look like a lifelike skin bag now?"
This question was out of everyone's expectation. Ouyang Boxiong was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter and pointing at Zhang Lisheng. "You're actually able to ask such a question at this moment? You're really a fool, young man! It's such a pity that you're a seed that has fallen into the hands of the heretics.
Forget it, I'll answer your question first, then I'll let you answer my question.
It's true that making a breakthrough to Rank-12 Wizard and reincarnating can make the living corpse lose its intelligence but the world has its own way of making up for damage. In order to preserve the living corpse's intelligence, the wizard will have to pay some of his own spirituality as a price.
The spirituality of a Grand Wizard is closely related to the appearance of the wizard gu that he transforms. Unless it's an ancient strange insect that he transforms consecutively, otherwise, how can he possibly have enough spirituality? In short, the path of cultivation has always been a closely linked thing. As the saying goes, 'one wrong step leads to many wrong steps'. You must be careful in the future. "
"I see. These few living corpses are just ordinary people so it's no wonder that you're not willing to preserve their intelligence." Zhang Lisheng's eyes lit up as he nodded in realization.
"Actually, now that I think about it, I don't know whether it's right or wrong to let their intelligence dissipate at that time." An imperceptible wry smile crept upon Ouyang Boxiong's face as he said, "Young man, it's my turn to ask you now. Are you willing to work for my witchcraft or not?"
"Now that things have come to this, Senior, do I still have a choice?" Zhang Lisheng looked around at the gazes that were staring at him and shrugged as he replied.
"Alright, no matter what, you're considered to have joined the gang now." Sitting on a big wooden table on the right side of the cement room, the burly man with a full brown beard who was the first to notice Zhang Lisheng's strange phenomenon in the lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel on the island said loudly, "Finally, we don't have to kill for no reason anymore. Brother Ouyang, I, Yang Tianyun, have made a contribution again, right?
In the future, don't ask me to go out and do the hard work of scouting. "
"Hehe … Who asked you, Mr. Yang, to look like a foreigner the most and learn the bird language the best too? In my opinion, you'll have to be the one to go out and investigate in the future …" Upon hearing the burly man's complaint, a man who looked like a rat beside him suddenly ridiculed him in a funny tone.
When Zhang Lisheng saw that the moment he agreed to work for the Gate of Witchcraft, most of the people in the room immediately returned to their original state of disunity, he could not help but secretly curl his lips.
However, he did not know that the reason for such a situation was because of the importance of seizing the Shrimp B1 Island. For this reason, the Three Great Mountain Gates of Witchcraft, Life, Death, and Sacrifice were competing to send their powerhouses to the island first. In this way, they had become a group of dragons without a leader and nobody could really take charge. However, it was not because the Three Great Mountain Gates of Witchcraft was not strict enough.
"Everyone, stop making a fuss! Don't let the junior who has just entered the sect become a joke!" Upon seeing the mess, Ouyang Boxiong patted the wooden handle of the rattan chair and said loudly, "Since Little Brother Zhang has entered the sect and Brother Tianyun doesn't want to go out and inquire about the news, I'll make the decision and change the person.
Min Lan, you're a girl, so it's not too eye-catching for you to walk with Little Brother Zhang. In the future, the two of you will go out and inquire about the news. "
"Yes!" In the room, a young woman who looked refreshing but was still far from being beautiful stood up and answered.
"Young man, here are some strange trees and strange stones that we've dug out in the wild. Last time, when we saw others selling them at a high price, we could only stare at them and pile them up in the room as garbage." Ouyang Boxiong nodded and shifted his gaze back to Zhang Lisheng. Pointing at a pile of junk in the corner, he said, "Pick up a few valuable ones and sell them with Min Lan to buy some food."
"Yes! Senior, you can just call me Zhang Lisheng from now on!" Zhang Lisheng replied and ran to the corner to search for a while. After picking up a few ores and carrying them, he walked out of the cement door together with the refreshing girl.
Looking at his disappearing silhouette, Ouyang Boxiong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We've finally taken down this boy who knows everything about the US. Otherwise, we'd have to risk the danger of being bombarded by torpedoes in a few more days and we'd have to use our omniscient abilities to cross the ocean naked. If we really reach that step, things would've gotten out of hand."
"Actually, if you want to talk about things getting out of hand, it's already gotten out of hand when your Brother Ouyang refined the four interpreters sent by the government into living corpses.
Otherwise, the country wouldn't have gone so far and ignored us for a few months. It's obvious that they're just waiting for us to die! " Upon hearing the old man's words, a dignified middle-aged man who was more than two meters tall in the cement room suddenly said with a fake smile.
"Brother Xu, what do you mean by that? It's not my own idea to get rid of these interpreters back then. Since they've found out that we're plotting to seize the island, it'll be a disaster sooner or later …"
"Plotting to seize the island? Plotting to seize the island? If we don't snatch it by force, it'll be like a tiger that has no place to eat! Isn't it just a waste of effort to use us smelly cobblers as Zhuge Liang?!"
"Snatch it by force? Do you think the US devils are that easy to bully? If we really kill all of the US people on the island, it'll mean that we're invading the country and starting a war. By then, we'll become the target of the 'atomic bomb.'
Actually, if it really comes to that, we don't even need to wait for the US 'atomic bomb to come down. I'm afraid that the Taoist masters and … Hmph, they won't be able to tolerate us … "
"What are you snorting for? Just say 'Old God' if you want to. Who would sell you out if you don't even mention your name?
Speaking of which, we're just the vanguard who's here to explore the way. Other than losing face, there's nothing else for us to do if we just go back with our tails between our legs … "
The Grand Wizards from the Three Great Mountain Gates of Witchcraft's Life, Death, and Sacrifice who had actually fallen into a dead end in the cement room argued for a long time but still could not come up with any clue. At this time, Zhang Lisheng, on the other hand, had already exchanged the few ores for a stack of brand new 100 dollar bills.
