Looking at Leng Zijiao's gloomy face and feeling the cold air emanating from Leng Zijiao's body, Bai Wan'er didn't need to hear the answer. The memories left behind during those days must be unbearable to look back on.

"We are at the beach. We need to discuss how to get to Beiyuan, but before that, Wan'er wants to see if there is any seafood that we can try."

Leng Zijiao smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai still pays so much attention to the appetite."

Bai Wan'er raised her eyebrows: "There is a folk saying called delicacies from the mountains and the sea. It can be seen that the delicacies in the mountains and the fresh delicacies in the sea are the best choices for delicacies. Since we are at the beach, how can I miss it!"

Bai Wan'er quickly changed the topic, dispelling the gloom in Leng Zijiao's eyes.

While they were joking, the two of them were already standing on the rocks beside the beach.

The brilliant sunset on the sea, the setting sun slowly setting in the west, and the sea with sparkling golden waves, Bai Wan'er was immersed in it for a while, feeling extremely happy physically and mentally.

"Master Liu, Master Liu, please, please let us go. Going to sea after dark will kill people. We will pay you back the money we owe you."

"The coral island is too dangerous. My son will die if he goes fishing for pearls. I will work for the master to pay off the debt. Please let my son go!"

"We didn't destroy the ship, we were just fishing for pearls. Master, please, be kind. Spare our lives."

A group of people were walking from a distance. The leader was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. He was directing his men to tie up a few people with ropes and drag them towards them.

Several old men, women and children in ragged clothes nearby were bowing and crying for help.

"Snapped"

A middle-aged man slapped a gray-haired old man on the face. The old man staggered and fell to the ground.

"Stop nagging, you untouchables, if you don't go out to sea to collect pearls today, I will sell your whole family."

The middle-aged man grabbed a young girl and said to the tied man: "If we can't find pearls this time, we will sell your daughter to a brothel. Although she is an untouchable, her daughter is not bad and should be worth a few dollars."

After saying that, he reached out and touched the girl's body. The girl was so frightened that she shivered.

"Don't touch my sister!"

A child rushed over to stop him, but was kicked to the ground by the man: "Don't worry, your father and brother can't collect beads, so you still have to sell them."

The four or five men who were tied up with ropes struggled to rush forward, but were firmly held down by the servants next to them.

"As a pariah, you still want to resist. I'll kill your father first. Let's see if you still dare to disobey."

The fat middle-aged man walked over and stepped on the old man's neck.

The old man struggled, his eyes bloodshot.

Seeing such a scene, Bai Wan'er couldn't help it. Just as he was about to take action, the fat man flew straight up and plunged into the sea with a "plop".

The servants immediately ran into the sea to get to him.

The strange thing is that the seawater only covered the fat man's waist, but the fat man's head was buried in the seawater and could not be pulled out, and his body twitched and shook.

The servant held hands and hugged the waist, but could not pull the master out of the sea.

The fat man swayed a few times and fell into the sea water, motionless.

The servants took the man out of the water, but it was too late. The fat man's eyes could not move.

"What the hell, what the hell!"

The servants panicked, and when someone screamed, they were so frightened that their legs became weak. They didn't even look at the person who was tied up, and they carried the fat man and ran away. The girl and boy quickly went to untie those people.

"Dad, brother. The gods are protecting us!"

A group of people knelt down and kowtowed to the sea. Then they supported each other and walked to the shore.

Bai Wan'er looked up and saw Leng Qingqing standing not far away, watching the group of people leave.

"Your senior sister helped, right? Are they your tribe?"

When Bai Wan'er saw the girl's attire, she found that she had some similarities with Leng Qingqing's attire.

"They are our tribe. In our time, we lived by the sea and were good at diving, fishing and pearl hunting. Unfortunately, our status is low, we have no land, and we cannot own our own boats. We can only pay to rent them. If there is an accident in the sea, we will be arrested. Sell ​​it to pay off the debt." Leng Zijiao said bitterly.

"So that person who bullies the border residents deserves to die!" Leng Qingqing appeared next to the two of them. Seeing Bai Wan'er's gloomy expression, she said, "Do you think Fellow Daoist Bai thinks what I did is inappropriate?"

Bai Wan'er nodded: "It's inappropriate. Fellow Daoist Leng will not only fail to help the tribe, but will actually harm them."

Leng Qingqing's face flashed: "I have already executed the evildoers, and the clan members should have escaped disaster. How could I harm them? Do you think Fellow Daoist Bai can't stand what I'm doing?"

"Senior sister, don't be anxious. There must be some truth to what Fellow Daoist Bai said. Please listen to me, senior sister." Leng Zijiao quickly dissuaded Leng Qingqing.

Leng Zijiao has seen how Bai Wan'er interacts with mortals, and knows that Bai Wan'er is well versed in worldly sentiments, so there must be a reason for saying this.

Bai Wan'er sighed.

These immortal cultivators can settle things just by killing people instantly with their powerful magic. The injustice in the world cannot be solved so easily.

"The man who died just now looked like a wealthy local man, maybe he was a local snake. And the border residents who were bullied just now must have owed him a lot of money, so he forced him to go to the sea to fish for pearls at night."

"Now the man drowned in the sea inexplicably. Apart from his servants, the only people left at the scene were these border residents. The man's death is extremely strange."

"Those servants can't explain clearly and are afraid of taking responsibility. It is entirely possible that they frame the matter on these border residents. If so, these people are afraid that their end will be even worse."

"Even if the servants did not frame the matter to the border residents, it is natural for them to repay their debts. After the incident, the master's family will be even more upset with these people. They feel that the man's death must have nothing to do with them. If they are pursued, they will beat him up."

After Bai Wan'er finished speaking, she glanced at Leng Qingqing.

Leng Qingqing stopped talking. There was an awkward silence.

Suddenly Leng Qingqing turned around and wanted to fly away. Leng Zijiao quickly stopped her: "Sister, where are you going?"

"I'm going to kill the man's family and be in peace."

"Sister, please don't be impulsive. Let's listen to what Fellow Daoist Bai has to offer, right?" Leng Zijiao winked at Bai Wan'er.

Bai Wan'er said nothing.

It was Leng Qingqing who was too impulsive and acted inappropriately. She didn't ask for help, so let her clean up the mess by herself.

Leng Qingqing stopped and turned to look at Bai Wan'er, but did not speak.

Leng Zijiao bowed his hand to Bai Wan'er and saluted: "Fellow Taoist Bai is the most insightful of the world's human feelings. In this matter, I would like to ask fellow Taoist Bai to help me find a safe way to save the clan members below."

Seeing Leng Zijiao's humble and polite request, Bai Wan'er couldn't refuse. Originally, she couldn't stand it and wanted to help.

Bai Wan'er lowered her head and thought for a while, then said, "It's better to do this..."
