Chapter 1092: Phantom Society
The shouting and shouting of confusion continued.
Zhou Fan opened his eyes and could clearly see the angry or frightened looks on the faces of those warriors.
But don't see any signs of weirdness?
Could it be that the strange attack quickly left after the attack?
Zhou Fan hesitated for a moment, and then carefully opened his ear sense, allowing his ear to spread to those camps.
The reason why he didn't open his ear sense immediately was because it was close to the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion, and among the travelers who traveled to and from the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion, there might be martial arts monks who knew the existence of the ear sense, and in order to prevent his secrets from being eavesdropped, there might be means such as talismans and tools that could detect the martial artists who opened the ear sense.
When the time comes, once it is discovered that there are warriors eavesdropping on their secrets, they will definitely not give up.
In short, eavesdropping on other people's secrets is a very jealous thing.
But in this chaotic environment, no one should care about this kind of thing.
Zhou Fan's ears spread out, discerning what the people in each camp were saying.
He listened for a while before frowning slightly, as if it wasn't a strange trouble.
The people in the camp are looking for people instead of looking for weirdos.
It seems that someone has stolen something important to them, and they are catching a thief.
Zhou Fan looked surprised, because in his eavesdropping, except for some camps that were woken up, three caravans and two warrior squads were stolen.
What kind of thief is capable of stealing so many camps in a short time?
Gangs of thieves?
But in the wilderness, the vigilance of the warriors will be very high, even in the Shuangchi Road, which is closer to the Xiaolei Prefecture Capital, the vigilance will be reduced, and some defensive talisman arrays will generally be arranged around the camp to prevent accidents.
What thieves managed to steal something without touching the rune?
Does not touch the rune ...... Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, he hurriedly lowered his head to check the things on his body, and he was relieved after confirming that nothing important was missing.
He was worried that a thief would be able to step through the defensive talisman and steal his things from his little sister's eyes.
However, when he thought about it, he also felt that the thief would not patronize him as a lone wanderer even if he wanted to, but would give priority to the caravan.
The chaos in the various camps continued, and it took a while for it to subside.
The people in the camp did not catch the thief, so Zhou Fan no longer paid attention to the matter, but continued to sleep.
The next day we continued on our way, and the people on the road were still discussing these things with angry faces.
Zhou Fan listened silently on the side, and he knew that those people had stolen a lot of precious goods last night.
"Don't let me catch the thief, or I'll kill him alive." ”
"Which thief do you say did it?" someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Who knows?" said a warrior with a roll of his eyes.
"I know. Someone said on the side: "Recently, there was a news circulating in the martial arts world of Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion that the Phantom Man would send someone to Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion to steal some heavy treasure. ”
"Phantom Person?" The warrior who had said that he was going to hack the thief alive suddenly shrunk his neck, and he swallowed his saliva, with a shallow fear on his face.
Phantom people will ...... Zhou Fan's face condensed slightly, as a martial artist of Yiluan, he had heard of the Phantom Society, which was a mysterious force that was recognized as an evil organization by the official family.
This force is said to have recruited chickens and dogs to steal and rob.
Of course, if it's just like this, it doesn't deserve the attention of the officials, the Phantom People Association not only does some petty theft, but also does a few big cases that shocked the mirror capital, and even preaches that they will one day steal the treasure of the Great Wei Town, Tongtian Mirror!
The official family was furious about this, and sent a master to completely defeat this evil organization, and it is said that many people were killed, and this mysterious force is still dead and not stiff, and has been tenaciously active in all parts of the Great Wei.
An evil organization like this will not only do chickens and dogs steal, they will sometimes not only steal precious things, but also steal people's heads.
That's why that warrior is so afraid.
"What kind of treasure are they trying to steal from the Xiaolei Prefecture?" someone asked in a low voice.
"I don't know. The man shook his head, a wary look on his face, and refused to say anything more, but talked about something else.
Zhou Fan was also a little curious in his heart that the phantom person would want to steal some heavy treasure from the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion, thinking that if he had the opportunity, he would inquire about it again when he arrived at the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion.
However, this phantom society may not be true, maybe it is just gossip.
In less than half a day, the double ruler road came to an end.
From the end of the two-foot road, you can easily see a long wall of pitch-black runes, and some pedestrians let out cheers.
Because this means that they have finally walked out of the wasteland and entered the realm of the Xiaolei Prefecture Capital.
The pitch-black rune wall surrounds the outer towns of the state capital, and there are twelve of them in the outer towns of Xiaolei Prefecture, and there are large and small villages in the outer towns, and the people of the villages are usually mainly responsible for farming and providing enough food for the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion.
Even if there are caravans that come and go in normal times to bring grain and grain, the cities of Great Wei must have the ability to be self-sufficient, otherwise if something happens to the caravan transporting grain, it will face the crisis of running out of grain, which will lead to greater problems, which is an experience that comes back at a heavy price.
Each of the outer towns has built a talisman wall, and anyone who wants to enter the Xiaolei Prefecture will need to pass through the guards of the gate under the city wall to prevent anyone from being possessed by strange people or infiltrating by unknown people.
There was a long queue under the gate, and when Zhou Fan saw so many people, he didn't line up, but took his little sister to the small door next to the gate.
"Outsiders are not allowed to pass here. Soon, a guard glanced at Zhou Fan and said.
"I'm from the Gaoxiangyi Luansi Mansion. Zhou Fan took out the Sifu token he was carrying with him and handed it to the guards.
The guards quickly confirmed the authenticity of the token, and they immediately saluted Zhou Fan and said, "My lord." ”
Originally, only some nobles of the big families and officials of official institutions could enter and exit this small door, and Zhou Fan naturally had no problem.
Zhou Fan put away the token, passed the necessary talisman array inspection at the city gate, and smoothly entered the town outside the state capital.
He hired a carriage at the gate of the town and asked the groom to take him to the Xiaolei Prefecture Mansion.
The carriage started slowly, Zhou Fan lifted the curtains, and looked at the market villages that the carriage passed along the way, the prosperity of the outer towns alone was comparable to the main city of the first level, and some caravans would not even enter the state capital, but they could complete the transaction of goods just by arriving at the outer towns, and then they would purchase a full cart of goods in the Xiaolei Prefecture and leave.
As soon as the carriage moved away from the crowded places of the market village and entered the official road, it sped up.
After that, all you see along the way are some rural scenery, and occasionally you will see patrol teams hurrying over on horseback.
After sitting in the carriage for half a day, Zhou Fan finally saw the majestic and towering city wall.
That's Xiaolei Prefecture City.
