Listening to Vanessa's words, a glint flashed in the eyes of the senior members, but they quickly bowed their heads and said, "Obey, I'll go and prepare a horse for you!" ”

It didn't take long for Vanessa to ride her horse and leave the stronghold of the Phidian Brotherhood from the cave.

The senior members graciously sent Vanessa outside the cave and watched her back fade into the wilderness, the smile on her face fading away.

The senior member pulled out a small cage from his bosom, and a black moth was held inside. He opened the cage, and the moth immediately rushed out, flying in the direction of Shining Gold and Stormwind, and disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye.

The senior member carefully hid the cage and muttered proudly: "Lord Earl should get the news soon, the reward he promised me will be honored soon, hehe......"

Vanessa didn't know that her most trusted subordinate had been bought. She was bent on rushing to Baishi Village as soon as possible to witness that magical new thing - the female leader of thieves thought for a long time before she remembered that this kind of thing was called cement.

As the daughter of a stonemason, Vanessa is no stranger to building walls and paving roads. In her mind, both of these were huge projects that required a lot of hard work.

Because of this, even many great lords could hardly afford to build the walls. Many lords' castles were built gradually after several generations or even more than a dozen generations of efforts.

In the case of Shiraishi Village, the majestic walls were built in a short period of time, and even the paving of the road was started at the same time, which was never heard of before.

That's why Vanessa ventured out of the Phidean Brotherhood's lair to see for herself. For her, it was a big deal and she had to figure it out.

It was not close to the White Rock Village from the lair of the Phidian Brotherhood, and even if Vanessa had a horse to travel on her behalf, it would take five days to reach the vicinity of Shining Gold Town.

Vanessa then followed the path that connected the town of Shining Gold to the village of White Stone, heading to the small village that was rumored to be a god.

The distance from Shanjin Town to Baishi Village was much closer, and Vanessa, who was riding a horse, only walked for half a day before she saw a group of people busy on the road ahead.

One of the dwarves shouted loudly, ordering the others to do this and that. A little boy saw Vanessa from a distance, waved his hand at her and said loudly: "Construction is underway ahead, please take a detour to pass through the side of the road, thank you for your cooperation!" ”

The same content is also written on the roadside billboard, which makes Vanessa feel a little new. She didn't come to look for trouble, but she pulled her horse away from the road and walked slowly on the grass by the side of the road.

Vanessa soon found herself near the busy dwarves, and saw that they were laying a sticky "mud" on the road. In an emergency, a few people scraped the road surface with thick iron sheets, and the whole process was very fast, and in a short time, a large area of road was paved.

When the mud had dried a little, the dwarves instructed the men to cover the pavement with some "carpets" made of dry grass and sprinkle some water on them, which was done.

Vanessa watched the work of these people with great interest and found it very interesting. To this day, she still did not believe that a road paved with this kind of mud could really pass a fully loaded carriage.

Seeing that this woman had been observing the paving work, Copperbeard waved his hand impatiently: "Aren't you in a hurry, why don't you stay here and not leave?" ”

Vanessa laughed, "I just think your work is new, what the hell is this mud?" ”

Copperbeard glanced at Vanessa coldly, and said expressionlessly, "Lord Lord said, keep it secret!" ”

Vanessa's answer was a surprise to Vanessa. She had the impression that the dwarves were like to brag about how good they were, and if she gave them a drink, they would talk even more.

According to the dwarf's temper, something as long as paving a road with mud, even if he didn't ask, he should take the initiative to say it. But this dwarf was completely different, and he actually knew that it was going to be kept secret, which made Vanessa's heart sullen, knowing that it was impossible to ask him for the secret of the mud.

Vanessa had intended to pin her hopes on the other workers, after all, with her beauty and means, it was easy to ask what to get from the mouths of these men.

Vanessa, however, soon discovers that the workers don't dare to look at her, leaving her with no means to play.

What Vanessa doesn't know is that all the people who are qualified to pave the way with Copperbeard are the group of people who are most likely to become official villagers in Baishi Village. These people are holding back their energy to fight for higher points, how can they reveal the secret of concrete to her?

Seeing that no one cared about her, Vanessa had no choice but to urge the horse to move on.

Copper beard also did not forget to remind loudly in the back: "The road with the sign is not dry yet, you can't walk on it, you must remember, otherwise you will be fined!" ”

"Hmph, no one in this world dares to fine me for money!" Vanessa walked away indignantly, but she didn't deliberately step on the undry roads until she avoided unnecessary trouble.

Vanessa walked a little further, and finally saw the road that was already dry. At first glance, the pavement is indeed rocky. However, if you look closely, you will see that the road surface is not spliced at all, and it is much smoother than the rock. Even though Vanessa was riding a horse, she could feel much more comfortable walking on such a road than on those uneven dirt roads.

At this time, Vanessa finally believed that after the "mud" she saw before solidified, it would indeed turn into something like a rock, which made her even more curious about Baishi Village.

After a moment of progress on the flat road, Vanessa finally saw the legendary city walls. As her subordinates said, there is no trace of the wall being spliced, it is completely a whole, and you don't need to try to know that such a wall must be very strong.

Thinking of the time it would take to build this wall, Vanessa couldn't help but secretly marvel that whoever mastered this technique was simply equivalent to being invincible on the mainland.

Over the next few days, Vanessa tried everything she could to figure out the secrets of White Rock Village.

However, the other party did a very good job of secrecy, not only was the village forbidden to enter, but even the mines in the mountains were not allowed to be approached by strangers, so Vanessa did not get much useful information at all.

All she knew was that there were people mining leponica in the mountains, and at the same time limestone. Three nearby kilns burn non-stop all day long, and black smoke is emitted all the time. There are also many people digging sand and smashing rocks by the river, but there is no valuable information other than that.

This makes Vanessa depressed and decides to sneak into the village in the hope of finding more information. For Vanessa, a veteran thief, this doesn't seem to be a difficult task.

However, the truth was completely different from what Vanessa had thought, she had just approached the city wall, and a playful voice sounded behind her: "This beautiful young lady, your curiosity is too strong!" ”

Vanessa quickly turned around and saw a dark-haired man standing not far behind her, looking at her with a smile.
