After sitting in the room until dawn, Jiang Chiyu did not continue to sleep, and it was difficult for her to fall asleep again.

After seeing the blood-red figure's face, every time I closed my eyes, it was so terrifying.

Xue Yi came when he woke up in the morning. He was anxious to solve the case. Although he didn't care much about it, things here couldn't be delayed forever.

He handed over a thick pile of case files.

"They are all the identities of the deceased. Take a closer look. By the way, the city has been uneasy recently, so you should be careful."

"Ok?"

Jiang Chiyu flipped through it casually and frowned. She didn't recognize the words on the Eastern Sea.

They are all hieroglyphs, so I can only read them roughly, and it is extremely difficult to read them.

Xu Shi saw through her difficulty, but Xue Yi didn't find it troublesome and started to translate for her.

"They are all spreading rumors recently that the Sharman tribe came here for revenge. They are seeking revenge, so that's why so many people died."

"Revenge?" Jiang Chiyu repeated, "It's not like you destroyed the shark clan and is seeking revenge from you?"

Xue Yi was stunned for a moment, hesitating. After all, there are many secrets related to the eastern sea area that need to be considered before being told to an outsider.

Jiang Chiyu saw his embarrassment: "If it's hard to say, you don't have to say it."

"That's not true." Xue Yi just didn't know where to start. This matter was very mysterious. "It was a man who wiped out the family. That man was the high priest of the Eastern Sea."

Xue Yi looked around, his eyes filled with fear. Even he was worried that if someone knew about it, they would be talking behind his back.

To be punished.

There is faith in the eastern sea, and the Poseidon clan's dominance is really strong, and their high priest is also a being with extremely high cultivation.

But the destruction of the Sharman race back then had a deep relationship with the high priest.

"He is with the saint girl of the Shark tribe, and he deceives other people's feelings. I heard that this is what he said." Xue Yi lowered his voice very low, as if he was afraid of being heard.

That kind of fear is innate. No one knows when the minions of the High Priest of the Eastern Sea will appear.

"The saint brought home a man who was covered in wounds. After some treatment, he was revived. I wanted to ask him to leave, but the man wanted to repay her kindness and stayed with the Sharman tribe."

The Sharks are xenophobic and have always been wary of outsiders. The elders have come many times and urged the saint to send people away.

But he failed every time. The man was used to making misfortune, and he was also used to making the saint happy. Over time, they became friends.

Xue Yi said with emotion: "The saint is naive after all and has not had much contact with the outside world, so...she doesn't know what kind of person she has saved."

From then on, the relationship between them became deeper and deeper. The man promised her that he would always be by his side.

The saint also gave her whole heart, and she gave all her beauty to that man.

Unfortunately, things went against expectations. One day, the man left, saying he wanted to go back to the shore. The saint was reluctant to leave, but still let him go.

After that, there was no news from the man, and the saint naturally couldn't let him go. She went ashore to find the man, only to find that he was already engaged.

"He is getting married, but the bride is not him. How painful this is." Xue Yi shook her head, "Most of the cruel people in the world are men."

"Tsk, you are quite thorough." Jiang Chiyu said softly. Looking at Xue Yi's appearance, those who didn't know thought he was not a man.

Xue Yi smiled and said that he was not that kind of person.

"The high priest is getting married, and the pomp will be huge. The saint is watching the person she loves marrying someone else in the crowd. She is so angry that she vomits blood on the spot, but she does not go up to question her."

This is a story that is widely spread throughout the eastern sea. As for the specific details, no one knows.

Jiang Chiyu heard it, it was just some worldly stories.

She understands the sameness.

"The high priest hurt the saint and successfully tricked the shark into tears. What a pity..."

Xue Yi sighed.

"Because of that shark tear, the shark clan was destroyed, but the high priest was also seriously injured, and his whereabouts since then are unknown."

It was a lose-lose story, but the high priest did not receive the revenge he deserved.

It doesn't sound satisfying at all.

Jiang Chiyu thought like this: "It sounds like these stories are pretty much the same. Tsk, tsk, tsk, where is the high priest now?"

"Who knows, but the minions of the Poseidon clan are not joking. It's okay for me to tell you this kind of thing just for fun. You must never say it outside."

Xue Yi said that if he was captured by them, he would lose half his life.

"Although I am the government official, we are not in charge of the eastern sea area." Xue Yi said softly, "Okay, okay, let's get back to the subject. Just take a look. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."

It was rare for him to be so free, and Jiang Chiyu also finished reading.

"These deceased are all young and beautiful girls. Isn't it true that sea-married girls are popular here in your area?"

"!"

Xue Yi looked at Jiang Chiyu and wondered why this woman knew everything, even the secrets of pickling.

"Yes."

"That's not surprising." Jiang Chiyu closed the file, "They are all sea-married women. They sink to the bottom of the sea. There is no way to escape. Does this case still need to be solved?"

"But but." Xue Yi always felt something was strange, but couldn't put it into words.

Jiang Chiyu's words are true, the sea-married girl was sacrificed to the sea by the Poseidon clan.

From the moment they were thrown into the sea, they were destined to die, but these corpses were very tragic, and they all died before sinking into the sea.

They are all poisoned.

"Maybe they were afraid that they would struggle and be poisoned to death on the shore. It was the fault of the teacher." Jiang Chiyu looked at Xue Yi, "But you know, you can't touch them."

Even if he knew what the problem was, with Xue Yi's current status, how could he possibly fight against the Poseidon clan?

"Even if their high priest is seriously injured, you are no match for them, are you?"

Jiang Chiyu's words were too straightforward, piercing Xue Yi's heart like a sharp blade.

"Aren't you just trying to close the case? Just close it quickly."

Jiang Chiyu urged.

But this time, Xue Yi's eyes flashed with a different light.

He slammed the table.

“Who said that?”

"Hiss." Jiang Chiyu took a sip of tea and was a little surprised by Xue Yi's reaction, "I thought you would choose Mingzhe to protect yourself. After all, digging into this matter will not do you any good."

Xue Yi said softly: "There are sacrifices every quarter, and every time we choose a girl to marry from the sea. So many people have died, but we still can't get the peace of the sea."

Even someone as capable as the high priest cannot control this sea area!
