Under the leadership of Zhang Shen, the three of them cut the queue to the last level of the inspection, which was much longer than the first two levels, and there were more people waiting in line.

The commotion just now also attracted a lot of people's attention, and now it still seems a little chaotic, but it has nothing to do with the few of them, because they didn't go there to be examined.

Following Zhang Shen, they passed through a secret door in the city wall and came to a sealed room, where there was no light source except for the candles hanging on the wall.

"Since a few of them were sent by Mr. Luo, then I won't have to go around the bush, we need to check the spiritual weapons on your bodies, including the items in the storage spiritual weapons. ”

Zhang Shen said this, almost so that Wang She couldn't help but go up and knock him out, how could he do this, it is understandable to say that he wants to inspect the goods, this inspection of personal belongings seems to be a bit excessive.

"Well, since this is your rule, we should follow it. ”

Wang She didn't speak, but Guo Chen, who hadn't said a few words behind him, did, the space they were in now was sealed, and they could do whatever they wanted.

This was supposed to protect their privacy, but now it seems that it is not the role of protecting privacy, but rather giving them a good place to act.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that they want to kill this person directly, although they don't have to kill him, but they can use illusion skills to make him think that he has checked it, and in front of the eyes of Nightmares, this is not a problem.

Moreover, if the Pupil of Nightmare is cast on northerners, the effect is definitely greater than that of other people, because they prefer to develop the physical body compared to the cultivation of spiritual power.

The cultivation of spiritual power is quite balanced, and part of the spiritual power obtained from cultivation is turned into self-cultivation, part of it is tempered body, and part of it is forged soul.

Since the north does not attach much importance to the cultivation of spiritual power, the improvement of spiritual power is naturally relatively weak, and correspondingly, the improvement of the soul is quite limited, and the effect of illusion skills is naturally better.

Two quarters of an hour later, the four of them returned to the passage, Zhang Shen said something to one of the guards, and then the guard came to show them the way, as for where to go, it was only known when they arrived.

Under the leadership of the guards, the three of them came to the nearest village, compared to the outside, the development of the north is much backward, there are not many cities at all, and there are still mostly villages.

"You can rest here tonight, tomorrow someone will be sent to trade with you, and I will take my leave. ”

The guard took them to a house, where they had everything to eat and drink, but there was no one, and before they could ask, the man said this and left.

I don't know why, since entering the north, all three of them have been feeling depressed, they don't know where this feeling comes from, they just feel very uncomfortable.

"No, it's not at all like the North a few years ago, and if the North was the same as it used to be, there should be at least one or two cities the size of the Old City now. ”

After the three of them repeatedly confirmed that no one was watching them, Wang She was the first to speak, according to his understanding of the north, the current north should not be like this.

"When have you ever been to the North?"

Guo Chen finally had a chance to ask this question, the last time the Red Saint Record appeared, it should have been a hundred years ago, could it be that there were still people who had cultivated the Red Saint Record during this time?

"You don't know, Xu Yang is from the north, I thought you knew about it. ”

Wang She answered his question truthfully, and then watched him sit on the blanket on the side, a purple glow flashed in his left eye, and he didn't know who he was contacting.

In fact, the answer to this question is not difficult to guess at all, there is no need for Shen Xuan and Ling Yunhao to contact each other anymore, and it is useless to find those two in the imperial city at this time, of course it is to find Luo Wenxiang.

At this time, Luo Wenxiang, who was still in the old city, heard Guo Chen's voice in his ears and said, "Have you traded with the northern tribes recently?"

As soon as Luo Wenxiang heard Guo Chen's voice, he immediately blasted everyone in his room out, leaving none of his sons and sons-in-law, and then began to reply to Guo Chen.

"I've done business a few times, and it's not bad, why do you suddenly ask this, have you been to the north now?"

"It's nothing, I just want to know the situation, do you know the details of the transaction, like how they met, how they collect money, who is responsible for this?"

After getting Luo Wenxiang's answer, Guo Chen hurriedly asked the next question, he felt that the current situation was very abnormal, if it was a normal transaction, at least let them know what to trade first.

But Zhang Shen, who should not be in charge of this matter, can make the decision to arrange their transactions when he sees the goods in the illusion, which is definitely problematic, plus what Wang She said just now, Guo Chen now feels that something should happen in the north.

"Everything is normal, a few people who came back last week also said that they went to the palace of the leader of the northern tribe, where they made a transaction and collected money in person, and it was their leader who was in charge of this matter. ”

Luo Wenxiang's answer once again deepened Guo Chen's suspicions, and now all signs indicate that something has happened in the north, but a week ago, there was also a problem at this time node!

If it was something that happened in the last week, why did those guards feel so skilled, thinking of this, a possibility suddenly flashed in Guo Chen's mind, and he began to send news to Luo Wenxiang again.

"You tell me the list of goods that you have traded in the north a few times before, you don't need to be too detailed, as long as the approximate value is fine. ”

Luo Wenxiang sent people to the north to trade, usually bringing in goods from outside, selling them into gold coins or spirit coins, and then buying forged spirit weapons and ores abundant in the north from the north.

Then he got a list of goods, and if nothing else, in terms of value alone, they were about the same as what he had shown the guard with his illusion skills.

Since this is the case, the possibility that they are greedy because the value is too high is ruled out, then there is only one possibility left, and he immediately began to remind Luo Wenxiang.

"Be careful of the people from the northern tribes around you, something happened here, it's best to change it if you can, those people are likely to be undercover agents sent by the north in the past. ”

Although it is possible to say that this possibility is low, this can completely explain the current situation, the people sent by Luo Wenxiang may have been killed, and those who went back were northerners or puppets.

As soon as Luo Wenxiang heard this, he immediately panicked, many of his subordinates have been to the northern tribes, even his daughter-in-law is a northerner, and now the situation does not seem to be very safe.

"Don't worry, you are very important in the eyes of the northerners, they will definitely not do anything to you in a short time, you still have enough time, I will go and get busy first, you can prepare." ”

Guo Chen finally gave Luo Wenxiang a dose of reassurance, and then ended the communication, and said to Wang She and Guan Ying: "There is a problem here, quickly find the clansmen and evacuate quickly." ”

As he spoke, he had already taken out the compass in the scroll realm and left the house according to the instructions of the compass, but he didn't take a few steps before he went back, because he had just made sure that the last person was not around.

Back in the house, Guo Chen said to the two: "I'll go out and find someone to see if I can find the truth from their memories, you stay here, and I'll be back immediately." ”

Before Wang She could stop him, he had already gone out, and in desperation, he had to separate a "shadow" and let the "shadow" protect him in secret, so as not to have any accidents to him.

Guo Chen didn't go far, and went straight to the house next door, the situation here is basically the same as where they live, there is no shortage of anything, but no one lives.

From this point of view, this area may be inhabited by foreign merchants, and even if there are people in this vicinity, they will not know what the situation in the north is now, and they must go farther.

But he hadn't walked far before he felt that there were soldiers in ambush not far away, although his strength was not strong, as long as he walked over, even if he didn't die, his identity would be exposed.

Sensing this, he turned around and left, it seemed that it was no longer possible to go deep into the north to investigate this route, so he had to go to the city gate guards to have a look.

The existence of the Nightmare Pupil allows him to check other people's memories without being discovered by anyone, and it is no worse anywhere, anyway, the masters of the north are not here.

He found Zhang Shen, who said that he was going to check the things in the scroll realm, and said that he had just come out for a spin, and now he couldn't find his way back, and hoped that he could take him back.

This is an errand that can have a good relationship with Luo Wenxiang, how can there be someone in the north who is unwilling, that Zhang Shen shook off the work in his hand and began to lead the way.

At this time, Zhang Shen didn't know that the depths of his soul had been invaded by others, and the spirit of the northerners was indeed not very good, and he didn't spend much effort to successfully see the memory.

Then he discovered an astonishing fact, the north now is completely different from two years ago, and now the tribal leader is completely just a pawn.

It is the tripartite forces that actually rule the north, but Zhang Shen doesn't know much, and the name he knows is also the text of the northern tribe, and Guo Chen can't understand what it means.

But it doesn't matter, he can't read it, someone can understand it, the location where they live is not very far from the city wall, Zhang Shen quickly took him back to his residence, and then hurriedly retreated.

After Guo Chen confirmed that he was far away, he walked into the house unhurriedly, closed the door, and then hurriedly took out a pen and paper from the scroll and wrote down a few strange characters.

After he finished writing, he handed it to Wang She and said: "Do you know these words, this should be the name of the three forces, I remember that the pronunciation should be ......"

He imitated the pronunciation he heard, although it was not very similar, but Wang She understood, and finally understood it or understood, or both, then he didn't know.

"Does this have anything to do with where we are now?"

After getting the answer, Wang She did not say the answer immediately, but took the lead in asking such a question.

"If that Zhang Shen's memory is good, now the leader of the northern tribe has become a puppet of these three forces, and it is actually these three forces that really control the north now. ”

He pointed to the characters he had written and answered Wang She's question, and then he saw that Wang She's face became very complicated, as if he didn't know whether to say it or not.

Seeing this expression, he became more and more curious, what was the answer that could make Wang She so entangled whether he should say it.

Just as he was about to ask again, Wang She opened his mouth and said, "These three words, one is the Evil Alliance, one is the Demon Demon Hall, and the last one is the Blood God Sect. ”

As soon as these words came out, Guo Chen instantly understood why he was entangled, Guan Ying heard this answer, and the ornament in his hand fell directly to the ground, followed by silence.
