"Who were those people who came in just now? Do you seem to care about them?"
After those strangers walked over, Yang Yan asked.
"They might be those strangers among the people." Li Fan thought for a while and said to her.
Yang Yan asked strangely: "There is no distinction between humans and ghosts here, how can you be sure?"
"Anyway, I have a way."
"If that's the case, you might gain something by pretending to be a demon and talking to them or eavesdropping on their conversation nearby."
"That's right. At the moment, the imperial court's search is still lagging behind these folk strangers who were accidentally involved here. Some of them may have been here a few times and are familiar with the situation."
Immediately, he went to a secluded corner and asked Yang Ju to fix the illusion of the illusion, and then followed him quietly.
After a while, several strangers were led to the window sill on the other side, where they happened to see the scene of the stage below through the specially opened viewing gallery bridge here.
Like Li Fan and others, they rejected Turtle Gong's recommendation and started discussing on their own.
These people knew each other and therefore chose to act together. The man named Wang Jian seemed to be the liaison organizer and temporarily occupied the position of leader.
"Brothers, we meet again."
"Brother Wang, don't talk nonsense. Is what you said last time true? There are indeed many strange people like us in this world. Even the imperial court has a demon-suppressing department that specializes in managing strange people. Once the private secrets among the people are discovered, If you hide rare treasures and master strange arts, you will be particularly targeted?"
Peng Bao said impatiently.
It seems that he has just stepped into the circle of aliens not long ago, and there are still many things that are unclear.
Tang Qiu and Gao Pu remained silent, but their eyes revealed a bit of desire for knowledge.
What the new aliens lack most is this common sense, even if it has long been ruined in the eyes of insiders.
It is not easy to integrate into this circle. If you don’t know something, you really won’t know it for the rest of your life.
This is why they temporarily regard Wang Jian as their leader. In a treacherous world, secrets are very valuable.
Wang Jiandao: "Of course it's true, and I'm sure that besides us, there will be others who will get the key tickets this time and come in to take advantage of the opportunity.
Maybe, someone will be lucky enough to get an exotic treasure in the lottery after the Oiran competition, and control it to become a strange person. "
"Then let's..."
"We'll wait and see, figure out what it is, and get them together!"
After hearing this, several people's expressions changed slightly: "Brother Wang, what exactly do you want to do?"
"The imperial court has expressly prohibited forming parties and running societies. Official laws are indispensable. You can't disobey them with just a few tricks!"
Wang Jian sneered disdainfully and said, "Look at how cowardly you are. You have been a docile citizen for so long that you don't even know what capital you have?
Let me tell you the truth. Sooner or later, the imperial court will recruit strangers like us among the people. We will be given various benefits, including murder and arson and being recruited. Even those bandits and bandits can be officials. Why can't strangers like us?
What's more, there is no need to take risks at all, just pick up the group and wait with peace of mind for the court to send someone to contact you! "
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but hesitate: "Is this really possible?"
Wang Jiandao: "Don't worry, this is not a crime, and it is impossible for the imperial court to send experts to exterminate it.
And if we have a large number of people, even if the Demon Suppressor wants to move us, we have to weigh it. Isn’t this the only way to have bargaining conditions!
An ordinary alien who joins the Demon Suppressing Division alone is, at best, a small eighth-level Demon Suppressing Envoy, but when a few of us form a team, it's definitely different!
To put it bluntly, the court sometimes behaves like a mean person. The more loyal and patriotic you are and an obedient citizen, the less valuable you will be. If you can threaten the court and have the ability to make certain people lose their positions and heads, then you can be recruited. the value of.
Of course, we don't really want to go against the imperial court, but after all, we can't be fooled into it so easily. Do you think this is the right thing to do when we become Nao Shizi's demon-suppressing envoy? "
This is not a closed box. Yang Yan has used the magic contained in Qian Huan Bao Pupil to hide herself and Li Fan, and even the sound is blocked, so she can hide on the other side and hear their conversation.
Li Chuan sighed secretly: "This Wang Jian seems to know something about the affairs of strangers, and his calculations are also very shrewd."
Yang Ju quietly reminded: "Don't forget, there are also inheritances from strangers in Caomang Jianghu.
These are from the group of foreign masters who did not join the imperial court seventy years ago, but were not exterminated. Of course, they know the conditions and approximate price of the imperial court's recruitment. "
Li Chuan nodded.
Many masters have indeed been born in Caomang Jianghu.
It can even be said that the number of strangers in the entire Caomang Jianghu is far greater than that of the imperial court and the Demon Sect.
However, most of the time, folk aliens are just a bunch of scattered knights and knights. Many of them even mistakenly believe that they are evil and see ghosts because of their background and experience, and they are in constant fear all day long.
It wasn't until evil spirits became more common, and a lot of news spread, that the court had to advertise widely, recruit wizards, and use them for its own purposes, that a correct understanding was gradually established.
Today's Wang Jian and his group are just repeating what happened seventy years ago.
But the gangs they can maintain are at best in groups of three to five, and few can reach more than ten people.
If you really have that ability, in reality, if your family has a big business, it will be easy to expose your target and be targeted by the court.
Li Chuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he thought of Wang Jian's shocking words.
Someone as knowledgeable and lucky as Wang Jian must not be a thing in the pool.
At this time, he knew how to organize people and form gangs. After Wei Wei's revival, the court had to delegate the power of governance and send a large number of strangers to maintain local stability, and he would become a powerful man in the new era.
This is like when the world is in chaos, and several Zhuangzi unite to train their troops and protect themselves. They will become powerful in the future.
If the imperial court cannot withstand the impact of the strange resurgence and the rule collapses, they may even form a team to separate themselves and rule the roost, which cannot be said to be the behavior of princes.
This can definitely be called a hero in troubled times.
However, Li Chuan looked back on himself and felt that the Marquis of Wu'an would inevitably embark on a similar path of separatism in the future, because in troubled times, the rule of the court could not be as stable as in the Taiping years. In many cases, those warlords in history were the best. comparison.
In troubled times, warlords and vassal towns were divided. They were originally powerful men or generals who took advantage of the chaos and had great advantages. However, they took advantage of them even more than those heroes who came from the wild rivers and lakes.
