In the village, there was a three-story restaurant built from bamboo. It looked very primitive, but it had the charm of a tavern.
Lu Qingshan had already inquired about it. This was the restaurant with the most customers in White Flower Snake Village.
Restaurants and brothels had always been the best places to inquire about information.
Lu Qingshan found an empty seat in the restaurant and sat down. He casually ordered a few dishes and wine, minding his own business as he ate.
Interestingly enough, at the table next to him sat a middle-aged brawny man. He wore a gray headscarf and had a ferocious appearance. His nose was actually empty. It should have been shaved off because there was a long scar there. It looked very frightening.
However, what was even more frightening was that the middle-aged brawny man ordered a bottle of strong wine called Green Bamboo Leaf. After pouring it into a small wine cup, a small green snake that was as green as jade came out of his sleeve.
The middle-aged brawny man carefully placed the wine cup in front of the small green snake. The small green snake immediately stretched out its scarlet tongue and licked the wine in the cup.
However, the surrounding people did not seem to be surprised by this scene.
It seemed to be a characteristic of the shaman tribe. Although the diners in the restaurant were all mortals, Lu Qingshan had already seen seven or eight people who carried poisonous snakes with them.
However, Lu Qingshan's attention was on a pair of young men in the corner.
One of the two men had a scar on his face, while the other had a black mark on his neck that looked like a centipede. They wore brown headscarves on their heads. According to Sang Ku, they should be people from the Palace Guard Division.
"Big Brother, this White Flower Snake Village is really getting more and more lively." The knife-scarred man sized up the scene in the restaurant and muttered in a low voice, "Who would have thought that this White Flower Snake Village was almost destroyed half a year ago and declined from then on."
"They were lucky. They were already on the verge of destruction. In the end, the Black Tip Shaman was able to turn the tide at such a dangerous time and refine a spiritual medicine.
Not only had he saved the lives of nearly ten thousand people in the village, but he had also brought about a great turnaround for the White Flower Snake Village. It had only been half a year, but it had already developed to such a lively state. It could be considered as a blessing in disguise.
According to this trend of development, the White Flower Snake Village would become a large tribe in a few more decades. Thinking about it, it would be smooth sailing.
Because of Granny Golden Snake, the Spirit Snake Tribe has become the strongest tribe among the five tribes. Alas, the days of the other four tribes are getting more and more difficult! "The man with the centipede sighed helplessly.
"When the Five Tribes Alliance was established, it was clearly to allow the five tribes to better protect each other. However, ever since this Golden Snake Granny became the Great Elder, she has not treated the other four tribes as people at all. She only wants to gather resources and benefits for the Spirit Snake Tribe and herself," the scarred man said angrily.
"Hush! Don't talk nonsense. You are in the territory of the Spirit Snake Tribe. How dare you talk about Granny Golden Snake so loudly? You are courting death!" The man with the centipede patted the scarred man's head and lectured him.
He turned his head and observed the surroundings. After he had made sure that no one was paying attention to them, he pulled the scarred man and said in a low voice, "The fist is the absolute truth. Granny Golden Snake is very powerful. She has become more and more powerful in each of the three Great Witchcraft Conventions. It is said that she has already reached the consummate stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
I also heard that in the last Great Witchcraft Convention, the other four tribes, apart from the Spirit Snake Tribe, seemed to have accumulated resentment for Granny Golden Snake's hegemony for a long time. So, they joined hands and tried to force her from the position of the Great Elder! "The man with the centipede said in a mysterious manner.
"Really?" The scarred man opened his mouth wide and exclaimed in surprise.
"Lower your voice! Why are you reacting so loudly?" The man with the centipede patted the scarred man's head again and continued, "Why would I lie to you? This is what my second uncle told me."
The scarred man didn't have any doubts anymore. The man with the centipede's second uncle was one of the Foundation Establishment Grand Magi in their village. He had a high position and power, so it was reasonable for him to know some secret information. "What happened after that?"
"My second uncle doesn't know the details, but Granny Golden Snake is still the Great Elder of the alliance. You should know what this means, right?" The man with the centipede said in a deep voice.
Hiss …
The scarred man gasped in shock.
Granny Golden Snake's fame had spread across the entire alliance of the five tribes. However, he didn't expect that Granny Golden Snake would be so powerful that even the joint forces of the four tribes couldn't force her from the position of the Great Elder.
"We are just two small Qi Refining cultivators. Why should we think so much?
The Spirit Snake Tribe is now an existence that we can't afford to offend. Let's just take the Spring Restoring Spirit Liquid back to the village.
With the help of the Spring Restoring Spirit Liquid, some of the poison in the village chief's body will be removed. This is the most important thing. We don't have to worry about anything else, "the man with the centipede warned.
The scarred man nodded, and the topic of the two gradually shifted to other topics.
However, the two of them didn't notice that a Golden Elixir Daoist was sitting at a table far away from them. Not only did he notice their whispers, he even stared at them.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, the two low-level cultivators of the Palace Guard Tribe stood up and left the restaurant.
Lu Qingshan's eyes flickered as he watched the two leave.
From the conversation between the two, Lu Qingshan had obtained a lot of useful information, but it was still not enough.
Not only did these two know a lot, but they also weren't from the White Flower Snake Village. Even if they disappeared, they wouldn't attract the attention of others for a short period of time. Weren't they the best targets to interrogate?
You're the ones who delivered yourself to my doorstep.
Lu Qingshan muttered in his heart.
…
The scarred man and the man with the centipede left the mountain stronghold and prepared to return to their village. The two of them were in a good mood.
However, a green light suddenly flashed, and a youth appeared in front of them.
The youth was very handsome and tall. He looked at the two of them indifferently, but the two of them felt as if they were rabbits being stared at by a fierce tiger. Their backs were drenched in sweat.
Those who came didn't come with good intentions. Moreover, the youth in front of them didn't look like a shaman cultivator.
Although many thoughts flashed through his mind, the man with the centipede didn't react slowly. He waved his right hand, and dozens of long black worms immediately appeared, pouncing toward the youth.
Lu Qingshan narrowed his eyes and glanced at the black worms.
These should be the poisonous worms raised by shaman cultivators. They were indeed rare, but they were just small cultivators in the Qi Refining realm. They were overestimating their abilities to dare to attack him.
Facing a cultivator of this level, Lu Qingshan didn't need to use his Origin Sword. He just stretched out his finger and lightly pointed.
A beam of sword energy flashed in the air and split into thin threads. It easily cut down all the black bugs that were pouncing at him to the ground.
It turned out to be a group of black geckos that were less than a finger long.
