Chapter 52 Little Thief
Black Rock City is the closest city to Yunxia Sect and the only way to enter Yunxia Sect.
A few days later, at noon, Xu Han came to Black Rock City. After delivering some copper coins at the gate, he sat in the carriage and slowly entered the city with the caravan that entered the city.
Xu Han sat in the carriage, lifted all the curtains around the carriage, and couldn't help looking around, feeling the bustle and prosperity of Black Rock City.
Because it is located on the edge of the vast mountains, Black Rock City is a well-known place for trading medicinal materials.
There are all kinds of precious herbs, such as Cordyceps sinensis, thousand-year-old ganoderma lucidum, ten thousand-year-old divine wood, ancient ginseng, etc.; the remains, blood, bones, fur, and even the inner elixir of spirit beasts are also dazzling. It attracts merchants, Dan, pharmacists and other famous people from all over the world.
People come and go on the street, three teachings and nine streams, strange costumes, turbulent heads, arms one after another, very lively. The shops on both sides of the street run a variety of businesses, each showing their magical power and competing for beauty. Xu Han was stunned.
Although Black Rock City is an ancient city, the planning of the city is very reasonable. The streets are covered with bluestones, which are crisscrossed and connected in all directions, and each one is extremely wide, and the carriages walk their own way.
Although Xu Han also walked through many similar prosperous places in those years, and even some places were more prosperous than here, his identities were different and his feelings were naturally different.
In those years, he was a lonely wanderer, penniless, begging for a living, and the street scenery was more beautiful. No matter how prosperous the city was in his eyes, all this had nothing to do with him.
It's different now. Now he is extremely rich. As long as he wants, he can buy the whole Black Rock City at any time!
Just as Xu Han was intoxicated in the prosperous atmosphere of Heiwa City, suddenly there were bursts of shouts in front of him. A large group of gray-clad men with bright machetes in their hands shouted and rushed this way.
"Catch the thief!"
"Little thief, don't run!"
"Bad boy, stop!"
"Make way, get out of the way!"
In front of the group of gray men, a young man in a light blue gown desperately pushed away the pedestrians in front of him and ran this way in a panic.
There was a sudden riot in the crowd.
In just a moment, the young man came to the front of the carriage and saw that he had beautiful eyebrows, thin skin and tender flesh, white, holding a package tightly in his hand, with a mischievous smell in his panicked look.
Before passing the carriage, he hurriedly looked up and glanced at Xu Han. A pair of peach blossom eyes were charming and frighteningly handsome.
Then, he passed by the carriage and went straight to the back.
"This little guy is very interesting!" After hurriedly glanced at the man, Xu Han was so happy that he couldn't help laughing.
Soon, more than a dozen men in blue hurriedly chased after him, rushed from both sides of the carriage, shouting and chased away.
Looking back at the big man disappearing in the crowd, Xu Han smiled and ordered the driver to turn right at the intersection in front of him, leave the busy street and turn into a remote alley.
Xu Han has to admire the prosperity of Heiwa City. Even in such a remote alley, there are countless shops, and the most are inns!
Yunxia Sect is powerful, with deep roots and lush leaves, and masters like clouds. Xu Han is just a three-grade real-life cultivation. At this point, he knows himself and his life is at stake, and he absolutely dares not mess around. Therefore, this time he went to Yunxiazong to inquire about the information, Xu Han planned to start from the grassroots level and sneak in first.
When it rained last night, he spent the night in Chenjia Village and had already figured out how to start this matter. He decided to go to Yunxiazong as the son of the Xu family in Nan County, and show his true face. When he needed to do bad things, he used the change rune. At the same time, he also used secret techniques to hide his cultivation and pretend to be a kung fu expert. The cultivation is low enough to be seen by others, which is convenient for you to act.
Hidden cultivation is necessary, because no sect is willing to accept disciples with art, and a big sect like Yunxia Sect is even more so!
In the three years underground, Xu Han learned a lot of secrets, which were emphasized in the "Stealing Chapter" of Stealing. Xu Han did not dare to slack off and learned the basic secrets in the theft chapter one by one. Hidden cultivation secret art is one of them. After casting this secret art, practitioners below the realm of gods can't see through it at all.
This secret art of hiding its own cultivation is different from the self-sealing cultivation in the practice world, and other skills that inhibit their own cultivation. Whether it is sealing or inhibiting, there is a time limit, that is to say, after casting, its cultivation can never be used within a certain period of time. Xu Han's hidden cultivation secret can use his own cultivation anytime and anywhere, and then hide it again, which is very convenient to use.
It is very close to Yunxiazong. Yunxiazong must have completely controlled the city and laid a lot of ears and eyes here. In order not to attract attention, Xu Han planned to keep a low profile. Therefore, he did not go to the one of the largest inns in downtown, but chose to stay in a remote alley.
He plans to live here first, learn more about the geographical location nearby, and then plan well.
According to Xu Han's instructions, the coachman drove the carriage to the end of the alley and stopped in front of a dilapidated inn. The inn was called "Fulai Inn". The carriage parked in the courtyard of the inn was also an ordinary carriage. Obviously, there were all the poor people who lived here.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Xu Han stamped the floor of the carriage and said in a low voice, "Little female thief, there is no one here who can come out."
The driver was stunned.
But there was silence under the carriage.
Waiting for a moment, Xu Han was a little impatient. He raised his voice slightly and said, "If you don't come out again, I will shout to catch the thief!"
As soon as the voice fell, a light blue figure quickly climbed out from the bottom of the car.
The driver was stunned and speechless. After all, he has been in this industry for many years, and naturally knows when to speak and when to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
After drilling out from under the carriage, the handsome blue-shirted young man naturally stepped on his arm, patted the dust on his body, and then looked at Xu Han fixedly and said in surprise, "How do you know I'm under the car?"
Xu Han smiled and said, "Don't say he is a big living person, even if there is a little mouse lying under the car, I can see it."
The blue-shirted young man threw his eyes fiercely and said anly, "You are the mouse!"
Xu Han didn't say anything and looked at him with joking eyes.
The blue-shirted young man wrinkled his worried head slightly and asked, "How can you see that I'm a woman at a glance?"
Xu Han laughed dryly and said, "You are thin and tender, white and red, your eyebrows are like the moon, your big eyes are charming, your mouth is like cherry, your face is like melon seeds, and your throat is knotless, especially your chest is too rich and strong, which is not in line with your graceful posture. How can such a person be a man who runs up sweating and smokes down all sentient beings within a miles?
Stealing attaches great importance to people, because people dominate property, not property. If they don't understand that people want to steal things, they often end up in failure. Therefore, a lot of articles have been devoted to detailing people's surface characteristics, body language and inertia. Behavior, personality characteristics, etc., and even the voice of people have been analyzed in detail, trying to peep into people's inner world from various superficial phenomena.
Hearing Xu Han's words, the blue-shirted young man's face suddenly darkened.
Xu Han tilted his head, put his hands around his chest, and looked at each other with a joking smile on the corners of his mouth.
"You...hum! I'm so angry," the blue-shirted young man suffocated, stamped his feet hatefully and left.
"Walk slowly without sending!" Xu Han said to her back from afar.
"The prince has good eyesight. He can see so many flaws at a glance. I admire him." Seeing the little female thief going far away, the driver raised his thumbs up at Xu Han and exclaimed.
"Nothing, it's professional." Xu Han answered casually.
"Is... the prince's occupation..." The driver muttered.
"Hmm?" Xu Han stared at him fiercely.
"Ha, I'm sorry, young man, I made a mistake." As soon as the driver's face changed, he immediately apologized and quickly changed the topic: "Do you have any other orders?"
Xu Han paid for the car, sent the driver away, and then Shi Shiran walked into the courtyard of Fulai Inn.
