The middle-aged man sitting opposite Zhang Yuan is named Chen Qi. His name is ordinary, his appearance is ordinary, and his figure and temperament are even more ordinary. They belong to the category that is most likely to be ignored among the crowd. Perhaps it is because of this characteristic that Chen Qi is not only the person in charge of the secret agents sent by Han Zixun to Damengze, but he has also been stationed here for ten years. For ten years, he passed a large amount of information to Xia Xu. Including news about Yan Wushuang. The information Zhang Yuan had read before basically came from Chen Qi! After exchanging passwords and confirming each other's identities, Chen Qi handed Zhang Yuan a few pieces of paper. Zhang Yuan took it and browsed it quickly, frowning involuntarily: "Missing?" Among the documents the other party just gave him, there was very little about Yan Wushuang.
To put it simply, Zhang Yuan's goal in coming to Damengze has disappeared for a year. No matter how hard the spies try, they have been unable to find out any news about Yan Wushuang. "That's right." Chen Qi smiled bitterly and said: "You can't see anyone alive, and you can't see a body after death. For the time being, it can only be considered missing." Damengze is a vast territory and the environment is even more complicated. It is most common for a person to die here. Chen Qi really hopes that Yan Wushuang is really dead. In this way, he can end his mission and return to life in Xia Xu. However, Han Zixun did not believe that Yan Wushuang would die at all, and once again sent experts to hunt for Damengze. Zhang Yuan pondered: "What do you think?" Chen Qi hesitated. This question is really hard to answer. After a moment, he said cautiously: "I believe that Yan Wushuang should still be in Damengze. As long as he is alive, he will appear again sooner or later." "But when it will appear, I can't predict it!" Zhang Yuan nodded thoughtfully: "Then we have to wait slowly." Chen Qi agreed: "Yes." Yan Wushuang is not an ordinary person. If such a person wants to hide, it will not be easy for others to find him unless he digs up all of Damengze. "I see." Zhang Yuan flicked the paper in his hand: "Brother Chen, I have to trouble you with one more thing." Chen Qi quickly replied: "Your Excellency is serious. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. As long as it is within my ability, I will do my best to complete it!"
Zhang Yuan smiled: "It's not a big deal." After a pause, he continued: "I plan to live here for a while and wait for news. Please help me find a place to stay. As long as I can live there, I don't need to pay too much attention." Zhang Yuan's original idea was to arrive at Damengze, find the target, and use full firepower to capture it in one fell swoop. Many times the simpler the plan, the more effective it is and the more successful it will be. In this regard, Zhang Yuan has a huge advantage. Because his cultivation level is at the fourth level, and he is still a Qi warrior who has just entered the fourth level. In terms of realm strength, there is no possibility of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. But if others treat Zhang Yuan as an ordinary fourth-level person, they will definitely get a huge surprise! Who would have thought that he could also drive super? Zhang Yuan relied on this information gap to defeat powerful enemies time and time again. The problem now is that the target cannot be found. Even if Zhang Yuan had great abilities, he could only do nothing. This task was obviously more troublesome than he expected. But once you come, you will be at ease. Zhang Yuan does not want to go back home, and is ready to wait here. Anyway, he was alone, so he could practice living in Xiaxu, or he could go to Damengze. "No problem!" As for Zhang Yuan's request, Chen Qi agreed without hesitation: "I'll leave this matter to you. I just don't know if you want to live on the mainland or in the waters outside the island?" Zhang Yuan thought for a while and replied: "Anywhere close to Dachen Island is fine." For Zhang Yuan. Living on the water is more comfortable and safer than living on an island. If he encounters an irresistible danger, as long as he dives into the water, who in the entire Damengze can stop him? Chen Qi agreed readily and worked very efficiently. The next afternoon, he found a stilt house on the water near Dachen Island for Zhang Yuan. This house is only about half a mile away from the mainland island, and it is not within the main residential area of the floating family. The nearest neighbor is a hundred paces away. It can be said that it fully meets Zhang Yuan's requirements. According to Chen Qi, he has already bought this house, and Zhang Yuan can live in it as long as he wants. This kind of stilt house on the water is not expensive. All the materials required for construction are available on the mainland and the island. It just takes a little more labor and can be set up very quickly.
If Zhang Yuan is not satisfied with his stay, Chen Qi can even find someone to rebuild it where he likes! Zhang Yuan didn't think it was necessary. He lived on the water for two days and quickly got used to life here. It is now the time of spring and summer, the weather is not hot yet and the temperature is very pleasant. The biggest trouble is the mosquito nuisance. However, the fish oil lamps used in every household have the effect of repelling mosquitoes. If you light a bunch of dried mugwort indoors, this problem can basically be solved. In the following days, Zhang Yuan practiced "Rightness Jue" in the house during the day and accidentally went to the island to buy some daily necessities. At night, he dives underwater to explore the surrounding area. It is just that large fish are rarely seen in the waters around Dachen Island. It is estimated that they have been fished out by people. In fact, there are not even decent fish schools in the water, and you need to go to farther places to find them. Most of the people living here make a living by fishing and breeding water chestnuts. Water chestnuts grow in water and can be harvested twice a year. The rice grains are large after shelling, and the purple skin and white core taste good. This kind of rice can not only fill the stomach, but also be used to make wine. It maintains the survival of countless people in Damengze! Zhang Yuan likes to eat it very much. Time passed day by day, and it was midsummer in a blink of an eye. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, but there was no news about Yan Wushuang. Zhang Yuan met Chen Qi several times. The other party was also helpless. But Zhang Yuan had enough patience. Zhang Yuan planned to stay in Damengze until the end of the year. If there was no news about the target by then. Then he would return to Xiaxu. This would be worthy of the "Xiaoyaoyou" given to him by Han Zixun. To be honest, Zhang Yuan felt like he was on paid vacation during this period! However, Zhang Yuan's life in Damengze was not always peaceful. A young man often came to visit him and brought him river food such as fish, shrimp, turtles and eels. This young man was naturally Shuisheng.
Interestingly, every time the young Shuisheng sent something, he insisted on not taking the silver from Zhang Yuan. In order to avoid being forced by Zhang Yuan, he even threw it directly onto the boathouse. Then he quickly disappeared into the water.
