Chapter 0355: Investigation (2 more subscriptions)

The sudden sound of footsteps that suddenly disappeared made him feel slightly startled.

Suddenly, he turned around, but there was nothing behind him.

A breeze blew, and dust was kicked up on the empty streets, and some tattered pieces of cloth were flying.

Yao Qian frowned, his eyes wandered around like an arrow, but he still didn't find any clues.

"Could it be that I have just woken up from my contemplation and have a delusion?"

He stood under the gates of the city, and did not move his steps, but listened.

For a while, there were still no footsteps, not even any sound!

His brow gradually relaxed, and then he looked up at the castle tower, which was still quite intact, and even the city gate was not damaged, and it seemed that the beast had not left this place.

When he came to the city gate, he followed the steps and went directly to the top of the city tower.

The same is true on the castle tower, all of which are kept extremely guaranteed, but some weapons, spears, and shields are thrown on the ground at random, which should be left behind by the soldiers defending the city when they escaped after seeing that the general situation was gone.

After walking around the city wall, he still didn't find anything, and after a cup of tea, he walked down from the tower again.

Woooooo

On the street, a gentle breeze blows.

In my ears, there was no sound other than the slight sound of the wind.

He searched for so long, but he didn't even find a single living mouth.

It's weird!

It's even a little weird!

It stands to reason that no matter what, there shouldn't be even a ghost shadow in the entire city.

Even if there is no human life, even if there are some fierce beasts, he can understand it, but now not only can he not find the living mouth, but even the dead body has not been found.

The entire Nanyuan City is like a mirage, all illusory!

He looked around, his five senses were fully opened, and soon, he noticed the breath of the other three teams.

No more, no less!

In three directions, the three teams seemed to be searching, stopping and stopping, and there was no other breath either.

Obviously, they, like themselves, have nothing to gain.

Retracting his perception, Yao Qian once again radiated his perception within three meters of his surroundings, and no wind or grass, even the crawling of ants, could escape his perception scan.

Coming down from the castle tower, he slowly crept through the avenue and into the path.

On both sides of the avenue are all kinds of shops in Nanyuan City, and walking inside is where people live.

As soon as he walked into the living quarters, he immediately felt a cool air hit him.

Bang Bang Bang ......

The breeze swept in, blowing and rolling the fallen leaves on the ground, and the doors of several houses that were not closed and the windows of the upper floors made a 'squeak' sound under the breeze.

I walked into several people's homes in a row, but they were all empty, and there was no blood stains, but there were still items on the ground, and a thick layer of dust had been piled up, and it looked like they hadn't been cleaned for many days.

Seven or eight houses were gone, and every family was like this!

This made him a little incomprehensible, or there was only one possibility, that is, Nanyuan City had already arranged for the people to evacuate before the fierce beasts attacked the city.

But this reason really does not stand up to scrutiny.

No one knows better than him the attitude of those officials of the imperial court towards the people.

It's always like a leek.

Besides, even if the prefect in charge of Nanyuan City is a great lord of the blue sky, if he wants the people of the entire city to evacuate together, it is also a fantasy.

People are cheap when they leave their hometowns!

Displaced!

This is simply unthinkable for many people who have never left the village in their lives.

Moreover, in the cognition of the people, there is a homeland complex.

Even if you die, you have to die in your own home!

And don't want to leave your hometown, and then die in a foreign land, becoming a lonely ghost!

"But in addition to this reason, what is the possibility that the people of the entire city can suddenly disappear cleanly? So far, I can't find the slightest breath of a living creature, and judging from the situation of entering the city just now, Nanyuan City has definitely experienced a bitter battle with the fierce beast, and has suffered heavy casualties. ”

All sorts of thoughts popped into his mind.

At this point, the last rays of light on the horizon also disappeared below the horizon.

The whole sky was a dark color, and a burst of gloom enveloped the entire city.

He frowned, unconsciously searching even faster.

It's getting dark!

As soon as he walked out of more than a dozen doors, he didn't go in to search, but just swept his five senses and left after making sure that no one was there.

After a cup of tea, he had already arrived at the gate of the Nanyuan City Mansion.

I saw that outside the palace, there was a hedgehog stone beast on the left and right, the size of a zhang, like a behemoth, under the shadow shroud, it looked one-horned hideous, full of horror.

He frowned, looked at the red lacquered door of the mansion, and walked through so many portals, only the door of the mansion was closed, which made him feel a little curious.

And he also wants to see, what is going on in this Nanyuan City?

Maybe there will be some gains in the government.

Moreover, with his understanding of the government office, there are enough rooms in the back office for them to rest, and if there is no danger inside, it is a good choice to stay in the government office tonight.

Before coming to the red lacquer gate, it was covered with rivets, sharp protrusions, two people high, stretched out his hand and pushed, making a hoarse squeak, but it was locked from the inside, and it was not pushed open at all.

His eyes moved slightly, and he came to the side of the stone beast and the pig, and his feet were already on the horns of the stone beast and the pig, and he jumped over the wall in front of the government office close to Zhangxu, and jumped inside.

With his feet firmly on the lawn, Yao Qian looked around the mansion, and it was still calm, without the slightest movement.

Walking out of the lawn, there is a bluestone courtyard, and beyond that, there are mansions.

In the center is the main hall where the case is handled.

He didn't even think about it, and walked straight towards the main hall.

After a few breaths, he came to the main hall, but what made him frown was that the main hall was a mess, and countless papers filled with his own words were randomly scattered on the ground, and even the plaque of 'Mirror Hanging' fell to the ground and broke into two.

I picked up two pieces of paper with handwriting on the ground and looked at them, both of which were notices advising the people to stay at home, not to go out, and to close the door.

This made him even more confused.

If you follow the contents of such a blank paper, the people of the whole city will not suddenly disappear at all.

And he had already entered the doors of no less than a few houses, which were all thick with dust, and it didn't look like a sign that someone had been in the house for a long time.

It's like leaving all of a sudden!

He felt as if a thick veil had been cast over him, making him unable to see the truth of the facts.

I searched the main hall for a while, but found no more useful information.

Coming out of the main hall, he searched several side houses, but still did not find the slightest.

However, the whole yamen is still quite well preserved, and there is no danger, but it is a good place to stay.

He stood outside the door and was about to give a signal to the others to come to the palace.

Suddenly, there was another terrifying sound of footsteps behind him.

Pedal, pedal, pedal!

The footsteps rang out in unison, causing the ground to tremble faintly, as if a large group of men and horses were moving in unison.

"How is this possible?"

The sudden sound of footsteps made Yao Qian's face change, and he couldn't even believe it.

He had basically searched the entire mansion, not to mention the shadow of the team, and he didn't even see a single ghost.

How could there be so many footsteps all of a sudden.

At this time, the sound of the footsteps was getting louder and louder, as if they were walking in unison in his direction, and the vibrations on the ground were getting louder and louder, constantly reaching his ears.

He turned his head to look.
