Under Lei Xiao's signal, all the subordinates got up from the sofa, ready to go to the businesswoman Eya again.

Without any warning, the whole room suddenly felt an unexpected vibration.

In an instant, the square plate on the coffee table and the teapot and cup next to it trembled slightly, making a crisp sound of objects colliding.

While being a little surprised, Lei Xiao noticed.

This sudden vibration, although not strong, was far from reaching the level where it was difficult to stand firm.

But it went from weak to strong at the beginning, and then from strong to weak, until it lasted for about a minute, and then it stopped completely.

Until everything returns to normal.

Without hesitation, Lei Xiao signaled the subordinates beside him to be more vigilant.

At the same time, he asked the sassy female knight beside him, "Lin, is the situation just now consistent with what happened to you before?"

On the other side, I saw Lin Lue pondering for a while, and then responded: "My lord, it is almost completely different from the one I met before.

One reason is that this time it lasted longer, but the degree of trembling has weakened.

The second is that there is no sound accompanied by sharp objects breaking through the wall. "

"I see."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and murmured in his heart: "It seems that there is little possibility of a connection between the two.

At this stage, it is better to investigate the source of this sudden shock as soon as possible. "

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.

Boom boom boom!

There was a rushing sound from the door not far away.

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao motioned to Hu Zhang and others who hadn't shown up before to put on the invisibility cloak again, while motioning to Lin to open the door.

Immediately afterwards, when Lin cautiously opened the door.

The figure of the chunky businessman appeared at the door, his greasy and fat face was full of panic and he said: "Your Excellency, it's not good! We are trapped here!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a look of awe, and immediately asked: "What happened?"

"Your Excellency, you...you should come and see for yourself."

The chunky businessman was obviously shocked, and after a few seconds of gesticulating with his two fat hands, he didn't know why.

He had no choice but to gesture to Lei Xiao to follow me, and then hurriedly walked ahead to lead the way.

In this way, close the door, follow the footsteps of the other party, and move forward in the hotel corridor covered with red carpets.

Not long after, Lei Xiao and his party came to the open-air balcony on this floor.

Because at this location, you can just see the entrance of the Shanjing Principality, which is the scene of the pass.

In addition, this hotel is taller than ordinary buildings.

Therefore, Lei Xiao noticed the abnormal situation there immediately.

Observing intently, I saw outside the towering city walls.

It has already been covered by a thick layer of sand and dust, and the scale is astonishing.

At first glance, it looks like a giant sandstorm has occurred.

Seeing this scene, all the subordinates on our side couldn't help showing surprise, and began to look at each other in blank dismay.

Undoubtedly, this sudden change obviously greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.

However, things are far from simple.

Next, Lei Xiao, who narrowed his eyes slightly, noticed further.

Amidst the sand and dust in the distance, a large number of mountains and rocks have been piled up, forming a solid roadblock, blocking the road connecting the Principality of Shanjing to the outside world.

This giant barrier made of rocks was even much higher than the ten-meter-high city wall, undoubtedly completely blocking the only way out of the city.

Of course, a roadblock of this scale would not have any effect on Lei Xiao and his party, who were all third-tier powerhouses or above.

However, it is obviously more than enough to block ordinary ordinary residents.

"It turns out that this is the real reason why the room trembled just now..."

After a moment of astonishment, Lin standing beside Lei Xiao, her slender eyelashes flickering, couldn't help showing a thoughtful expression.

"Your Excellency, there has been such a severe landslide here.

It seems that we will not be able to leave for a while. "

On the other side, the mood of the chunky businessman also gradually calmed down a bit.

Immediately he sighed heavily and said, "Oh, it's just a disaster for us to catch up with this kind of natural disaster."

"My lord, when I came here just now, my subordinates have already observed carefully.

The mountain structure here is compact, the vegetation is densely covered, and there are no traces of groundwater erosion.

Therefore, the subordinates judged that such a severe landslide should not be caused by natural disasters. "

Immediately, Lin's sassy voice came to Lei Xiao's ears again.

"So, if it's not a natural disaster, is it a man-made disaster?"

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and murmured in his heart: "I have to say, this kind of sudden change is really unexpected.

It seems that there is a great possibility that we have been involved in some kind of dispute inexplicably. "

"Man-made disaster?"

Hearing this, I saw the short and fat businessman on the side, with a frightened expression on his face, and tremblingly said: "Your Excellency.

You mean...someone purposely sealed this place off from the outside world? ! "

After finishing speaking, the short and fat businessman swallowed subconsciously, and then said: "So, what exactly is the other party going to do?

You know, as far as I know, compared with the powerful Cold Flame Kingdom and Holy Night Kingdom.

Although the strength of the Shanjing Principality is negligible, it also has a garrison force of 5,000 people.

It is impossible for anyone to plan to fight against such a force, or even prepare to capture this city, right? ! "

"At this stage, the specific situation is still difficult to determine." Shaking his head slightly, Lei Xiao responded.

While speaking, his eyes moved and landed on the street under the open-air balcony.

At this moment, the street that was still bustling just now has become deserted.

Only a few teams of heavily armed young soldiers in light armor trotted past with dignified expressions.

It appears that the entire city has entered an emergency state of total martial law.

Noticing this, Lei Xiao took a step towards the room and said to the short and fat businessman, "Okay, let's go back first."

In this way, all the way back to the room just now, Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and said to the chunky businessman who was still trembling: "At present, everything is still unclear.

Tell the people in the caravan not to step out of the room, and leave the rest to me. "

"Understood, please be very careful!" On the other side, the chunky businessman nodded immediately, and trotted all the way back to his room.

When the figure of the chunky businessman completely disappeared in front of him, Lei Xiao and Lin also put on the invisibility cloak one after another, and triggered the hidden aura of the hidden ring.

So far, the eight people currently in office are all in a state of invisibility.

"My lord, the situation here seems to be getting more and more complicated."

A rough voice sounded, and I saw Hu Zhang bowed slightly, and then said: "When I was on the open-air balcony just now, my subordinates checked carefully.

It was found that there was no other new powerhouse's aura around. It seemed that the unknown opponent had obviously used some means of hiding his aura. "

Speaking of this, I saw another awe-inspiring look on the face of the knotweed stick, and clasped his fists and said: "However, please rest assured, my lord.

No matter what ghosts and monsters come, the subordinates will completely smash them to pieces. "

On the other side, Ye Cang, Chao Yan and the others also nodded their heads one after another, with firm expressions on their faces.

"Very good." With a slight nod to the subordinates beside him, Lei Xiao closed the door again.

At the same time, he said to the subordinates beside him: "Okay, according to the original plan, let's go and see what the businesswoman Eya is doing."

After leaving the hotel, Lei Xiao immediately asked the location of Xiao En and other members of the Pterosaur Knights team by reading aloud.

It was learned that they were looking for the traces left by the sky pterosaurs and headed all the way to the deep mountains. The distance of nearly ten kilometers had already left the surrounding area of ​​the city.

Therefore, the vibration and sound of the collapse of the mountain were not noticed.

"Understood, continue to concentrate on the work of taking over the mount. If there are other arrangements, I will inform you as soon as possible."

Just when Lei Xiao had just turned off the reading.

Zhaoyan's voice came over with some doubts: "My lord, Xiao En and others are still far away from the pass, and they can't hear the sound of the mountain collapsing, so it's normal.

But we were so close to the incident just now, but we still didn't hear any sound.

The sound insulation effect of the building here is a bit too good, right? "

"That's right, my lord, my subordinates have also discovered this." On the other side, Lin also echoed.

"It seems that the buildings here can not only hide the breath, but also isolate the sound."

Nodding his head slightly, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a thoughtful expression again.

He murmured in his heart: "What is this remote country in the mountains hiding?"

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao, who was wearing an invisibility cloak, focused his eyes on the surrounding streets again.

At this time, under the bright sunlight, the huge street was already empty.

There are only some stalls that have not been cleaned up, and the garbage on the ground, which is still there, and it looks like a mess everywhere.

When Lei Xiao saw this, his party had already arrived at the corner of the street, in front of the mottled signboard of the Shuguang Exquisite Trade Fair.

I saw that the door here is still open, which is quite different from the surrounding shops with closed doors.

"My lord, there is no aura in this shop." Immediately afterwards, the sound of the knotweed came to Lei Xiao's ears.

"Let's go in and have a look first." Wei Wei nodded, surrounded by his subordinates, Lei Xiao stepped into the door of the shop.

After entering it, Lei Xiao noticed.

In this slightly dim shop, everything is no different from before, and there is indeed no aura.

Although it looked tattered everywhere, it was cleaned up quite cleanly.

It's just that the dilapidated wooden table that his side had sat on before, and the wooden chair fell on the ground at the side where Eya was.

"My lord, judge based on the situation at the scene.

The local young businesswoman seemed to be walking in such a hurry that she didn't even notice that the chair was upside down and the shop door was open. "

Immediately, Ye Cang said thoughtfully while pushing the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Indeed." Lei Xiao lowered his body to lift up the wooden chair, and said in a deep voice, "Other shops are closed with their doors closed, and they don't go out.

However, Eya chose a completely different approach. It seems that we have found another basis for our speculation that she has other special identities. "

"My lord, come and see!"

Immediately afterwards, Bai Wei's crisp sound of surprise came not far away.

When he got closer, Lei Xiao found out.

At the far end of the store, a large container has been moved aside.

In the original position of the container, the gap between the floor tiles and the side is different, which seems to be a hidden door.

"My lord, there seems to be some special smell here."

At this moment, Bai Wei was lying on the ground, her big fluffy white tail raised high, she was sniffing carefully with her snout.

"I didn't expect that there is another mystery here."

Surprised, he first signaled Bai Wei to stand up again, and Lei Xiao nodded to the burly man beside him: "Knotweed, open it."

"Obey, my lord."

On the other side, Polygonum cuspidatum strode forward and fumbled on the ground for a while.

It just snapped out a metal pull ring, and then easily pulled up the cleverly hidden basement door.

Looking intently, Lei Xiao noticed.

This underground door, which is about one meter square, can be said to be very thick, with a thickness of nearly 20 centimeters, like a safe door for a vault.

Next, after the two of them, Hu Zhang and Ye Cang, went in to check and found nothing unusual.

Surrounded by Chao Yan and Bai Wei, Lei Xiao went straight down the steep stone stairs and entered the hidden basement.

Arriving on the flat ground again, under the light of the light spar, Lei Xiao's dark eyes moved and began to look around.

It is found that the area of ​​this basement is not large~lightnovelpub.net~It is only about 20 square meters in size, and the overall shape is square.

It was empty, like a rough house without windows.

However, the most striking place.

It is the walls, the ground, and even the ceiling here.

There are traces of different shades all over, and in some places, there are even pits the size of fists.

Moreover, the traces of these deep ravines look very regular from a local perspective.

It looked like it was scratched by the sharp claws of some kind of beast.

"My lord, the subordinates seem to know the secret of the Shanjing Principality."

At this time, Bai Wei first picked out a bunch of gray-black animal hair from a crack in the ground, and after sniffing it carefully for a while.

A look of enlightenment suddenly appeared on the fair and delicate face.
