The structure of Xiaoleizhou City is completely different from that of Gaoxiang City, and if you look at it from above, you can see that it is a huge city in the shape of concentric circles.

The rune wall was built with the central city as the center, and outside the rune wall of the central city was the inner city, and the inner city also built a circle of rune walls, and outside the rune wall of the inner city was the outer city, and the outer city also built a rune wall to prevent foreign enemies.

Zhou Fan passed the inspection of an outer city gate before he really entered the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion.

The inspection of the outer city gate is also the final inspection, in order to improve the operational efficiency of the Xiaolei official family, when there is nothing to do in normal times, the three cities are unimpeded.

Only in times of crisis will the gates between the three cities be placed under martial law.

The area of each city in the outer city, the inner city and the central city is about the same size as the high elephant city, among which the outer city is inhabited by civilians and some small merchants, and the inner city is mainly inhabited by small and medium-sized families, medium and large merchants, and the central city is inhabited by medium and large families, large merchants and various official institutions.

The class is clear, and the degree of wheel security is naturally the highest in the central city, followed by the inner city, and the worst in the outer city.

It was already afternoon, and Zhou Fan had changed to a carriage after passing through the outer city gate, and when the groom sent him to an inn in the inner city, it was already dark.

Zhou Fan stayed at the inn in the inner city, and got up early the next morning, and after he finished breakfast, he left the inn with his little sister and Zhou Momo, who was invisible to others.

He came to the state capital mainly to learn the Tao in Xiaolei Academy, and today he naturally had to report to Xiaolei Academy.

Zhou Fan got into a carriage.

"Where are you going, my lord?" asked the groom with a hearty smile.

"Go to Xiaolei Academy. Zhou Fan waved his hand.

"Where?" said the groom, "What academy?"

"Xiaolei Academy. Zhou Fan said again.

"Xiaolei Academy?" Ma Fu asked with an embarrassed look on his face, "Where is the Xiaolei Academy that the adults are talking about, and in which city in the state city or in what other town?"

Ma Fu didn't know where Xiaolei Academy was...... Zhou Fan was stunned, this was a little different from what he thought.

The academy is famous all over the world, such as Gaoxiang Academy, it is impossible for the people of Gaoxiang City not to know where it is?

Could it be that this horseman has only recently come to the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion?

"But I don't know. Zhou Fan coughed dryly.

"Wait a minute, sir, I'll go and ask someone for you. Unwilling to give up the business, the groom said immediately.

Zhou Fan nodded in agreement, and he watched the groom communicate with the other grooms.

It's just that soon the groom came back with a strange face, and he smiled bitterly: "My lord, are you mistaken? Our state capital has never had any Xiaolei Academy, but there are academies in the five counties of Xiaolei......"

Zhou Fan was a little stunned for a moment, it would be strange if a horseman hadn't heard of Xiaolei Academy, but so many horsemen who drove carriages for a living hadn't heard where Xiaolei Academy was......

Zhou Fan could only get out of the carriage and stood aside thinking about why this happened?

Is it because Xiaolei Academy has never been open to the public, and no one will recognize it for many years...... Zhou Fan quickly came up with a reason that he thought was reasonable, but he soon felt that it was not very reasonable.

Because even if Xiaolei Academy is not open to the public to recruit students, there should be a specific address, and there should be a plaque hanging from the academy, so there is no reason why no one should know about it...... Zhou Fan scratched his head and didn't think much about it, when he came over, he never thought that there would be such a situation where he couldn't find Xiaolei Academy.

Zhong Tian and Huang Bujue didn't remind him that there was such a thing.

Now the key is to find Xiaolei Academy first.

It's not that there is no way, if you go to Xiaolei Yiluan's Mansion, you will definitely know the location of Xiaolei Academy.

But going to the Xiaolei Yiluan Si Mansion now is bound to waste more time, and he doesn't want to go to the Yiluan Si Mansion so soon, otherwise he may be sent on an errand.

He could delay for a short time, and prepare to step into the Dao Realm wholeheartedly or have a way to step into the Dao Realm before reporting to the Yiluan Division's Mansion.

Zhou Fan thought for a while, then he turned back to the groom and asked, "If I want to live in a place that no one else knows, who do you think will know?"

"Do you still want to find Xiaolei Academy?" said Ma Fu with a thoughtful expression: "If you want to be familiar with the state capital, it must be the official family, but if you go to the mansion, if you don't have a way, you will probably be kicked out...... Ah, by the way, I know a man who has lived in the state capital for decades and claims to know everything. ”

"Usually if we don't know much about something, ask him for help, and he can point it out for us right away. ”

"Who is he? Take me there. Zhou Fan said with a happy face.

"My lord, you have to pay for the road to him. The groom hesitated for a moment and said, "And it's not cheap, it's about the same as the fare for our trip back and forth to the town, why don't I find someone else to ask for you?"

"Didn't you just ask? Ask for the fare, and take me to him. "Zhou Fan doesn't care about this little money, as long as that person knows Xiaolei Academy, this money is nothing.

Zhou Fan said so, and the groom had no problem, he quickly drove Zhou Fan out of the inner city, and found the person he was looking for in a street market ten zhang at the outer city gate.

The man the groom took him to find was a blind man.

The blind man, wearing a round hat and a short beard of black and white, sat at a square table, and leaned on the side of the table a gray banner with the inscription: I can't count the affairs of the world, and I can't see the number of human lives.

Blind fortune teller.

Zhou Fan glanced at the gray banner and thought it was quite interesting, ordinary fortune tellers are eager to say that they are omniscient and omnipotent, but this blind man is very modest and honest.

"Old blind man. The groom shouted with a grin.

"Zhang Laosan. The old blind man was a little annoyed and said, "I'm sleeping, what are you shouting loudly?"

"I'm here to bring you business. The groom smiled and said, "My lord, this is the man I told you." ”

"This lord, do you want to tell fortunes?" The old blind man smiled, raised his head slightly in Zhou Fan's direction and asked: "You can ask about karma, good luck, and future, and you are not allowed to ask for money." ”

With gray eyes, he seemed to know that Zhou Fan was standing there.

"Old blind man, don't lie here, the state government knows that your fortune telling is the most unreliable, and this adult is here to ask you for directions. The groom laughed and scolded.

"Do you know where Xiaolei Academy is?" Zhou Fan asked expectantly.

"Xiaolei Academy......" The old blind man frowned slightly, "What are you looking for it?"

"Studying. Zhou Fan understood that the old blind man must know, otherwise he wouldn't have asked him what he was doing with Xiaolei Academy.

"Did Zhang Laosan tell you? Asking me for directions is equivalent to asking me for fortune telling, but asking for money. The old blind man laughed.

Zhou Fan took out the money, put it on the table and said, "He told me about this, this is for you to ask for directions." ”

The old blind man stretched out his hand and touched the copper coin, he just weighed it and said: "This lord, you are looking for me to find the right person, there are very few people in this state capital who know Xiaolei Academy, and I happen to be one of them." ”
