Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 111: Painful Journey
Zuo Feng followed Uncle Tian, and what surprised him was that the direction they were walking in was not towards the City Lord's Mansion. It wasn't until Zuo Feng followed Uncle Tian out of Yancheng and saw three figures waiting outside the north gate that he understood a little bit.
The three of them were all around seventeen or eighteen years old, two boys and one girl. The woman's appearance was not extremely beautiful, but her voluptuous figure and pair of slender legs made her look extremely attractive. Paired with a dark outfit, it gives people a wild beauty.
Two other men stood on his left and right respectively. A man was dressed in extremely fancy clothes. If someone accidentally saw this man from a distance, they would probably mistake him for a woman. The other man had an unusually tough appearance and was also extremely tall. Even though it was already autumn, the man still had his upper body exposed.
The two men were pretty normal. When they saw Zuo Feng following Uncle Tian, they both nodded politely. Only the woman glared at Zuo Feng with an extremely unkind expression. After snorting softly, she turned her back and never looked at Zuo Feng again.
This made Zuo Feng somewhat confused. He seemed to have never known this woman before, so why did she seem so hostile to him when they first met her.
"Okay, we don't have much time, so let's all set off as soon as possible. You have plenty of time to get to know each other along the way, so I, the old man, won't introduce you to you."
After listening to Uncle Tian's words, the four of them nodded silently and followed Uncle Tian to the north. While moving forward, Zuo Feng secretly observed several other companions. There was an extremely exaggerated sword hanging from the back of the naked man. Although it didn't look very sharp, Zuo Feng could vaguely guess from its size that its destructive power should be great.
Seeing that Zuo Feng was interested in the sword on his back, the naked man smiled slightly and said, "My name is Mo Tie, his name is Lin Xun, and that girl's name is Qin Xiao. The little brother looks very young, he should be less than sixteen Years old."
The big man showed his white teeth when he smiled. Judging from his personality, he should be a cheerful man. As he walked forward, he introduced himself and the other two people, and casually asked about Zuo Feng.
Zuo Feng smiled slightly and said, "My name is Zuo Feng. I am indeed less than sixteen years old this year."
"Hmph, this brat who hasn't even fully grown his hair yet dares to come and participate in the Spiral Tower Trial. Mo Tie, you have too many things to do. Why do you care about such a dragster?"
Hearing what the woman named Qin Xiao said, Zuo Feng couldn't help but frown slightly. It was definitely the first time he had seen this voluptuous woman, but where did her hostility towards him come from, which made Zuo Feng extremely puzzled.
"I can't blame you. Qin Xiao has a twin brother named Qin Xing."
"Huh? I don't know her or her brother. What does Qin Xing have to do with me?"
After Zuo Feng heard the introduction of the man named Mo Tie, he asked again with some doubts. The big man named Mo Tie smiled slightly and continued.
"Those of us were selected after the last trial, and we have endured all kinds of hard training in the past few years. But just over three months ago, the Lord of the City suddenly informed that Qin Xing's qualifications had been Cancel it. If I say this, you can probably guess why Qin Xiao is so hostile to you. "
When Zuo Feng heard this, he finally understood. He smiled helplessly and shook his head, as if muttering to himself: "It turns out that there are still these inside stories. If it weren't for the repeated requests from the City Lord's Palace, I really wouldn't want to wade into this muddy water."
Hearing what Zuo Feng said, the man named Mo Tie couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and even the man named Lin Xun, who was wearing fancy clothes, also quietly glanced this way.
"Hmph, you're just pretending. Could it be that the city lord is an old fool and let such a brat replace my brother?"
When Zuo Feng heard what the woman said, he just smiled casually. Seeing Zuo Feng's behavior, the woman named Qin Xiao obviously aroused her hostility again, but before she could speak again. Uncle Tian's deep voice sounded coldly at this moment.
"If it's nonsense, stop talking. If you can't control your mouth, you can go back now."
Uncle Tian's words were obviously directed at the woman named Qin Xiao. When the woman heard what Uncle Tian said, the expression on her face became extremely ugly. Later, she also realized that what she just said violated a taboo. The majesty of the city lord was definitely not something that she, a junior, could comment on. In the end, it was worth giving Zuo Feng a hard look and no more words.
The few people walked all the way north and soon entered the mountainous area. Zuo Feng also understood at this time why the few people were not riding horses. Even horses on such rugged mountain roads were of no use at all.
As time passed slowly, the sun gradually moved closer to the center of the sky. Soon after, several people discovered an interesting phenomenon. The naked man was walking behind the team with a little difficulty because he was carrying a heavy and huge sword. But Zuo Feng, who seemed to be carrying no weight, was hanging at the very back with such difficulty.
At the beginning, these people didn't pay too much attention, but as time went by, everyone gradually discovered some problems. The big man's dark skin was slightly red at this time, and he was constantly sweating. He was naked and didn't care, but his breathing was slightly heavy.
Zuo Feng seemed to be struggling more than the big man. At the beginning, there was nothing noticeable, but as he walked more and more roads. Zuo Feng gradually showed that he was struggling, and there were obvious sweat stains on his chest, back, and armpits.
Seeing Zuo Feng's appearance, the one who seemed most surprised was Uncle Tian. He once witnessed with his own eyes how Zuo Feng defeated an eighth-level and two seventh-level warriors of the same level when he was in the sixth level of physical strength. But the young man in front of him was obviously walking heavily, looking like he was a little weak in physical strength.
Thinking of this, the old man pondered for a while and then said: "Everyone, take a short rest here, and then we will continue on our way."
After Uncle Tian finished explaining, everyone else was doing better. However, Mo Tie and Zuo Feng seemed to be relieved, and they just found a dry place and sat down.
"Is there something wrong? You seem to be in a very bad state. If there is any problem, tell me as soon as possible. I have also brought a lot of medicine powder from the house."
Zuo Feng shook his head helplessly and said: "It doesn't matter to me, I just encountered a little problem in my practice recently... But my fighting strength is still barely able to maintain the original level. Uncle Tian, you can rest assured."
The "prison lock" on his wrist involved too many secrets, and once explained, it would bring even greater trouble to him. After careful consideration, Zuo Feng decided to hide the secret. But in order not to worry Uncle Tian, he also emphasized his current combat power level at the end.
Hearing Zuo Feng say this, Uncle Tian was slightly relieved, but before Uncle Tian could ask again, the woman named Qin Xiao said coldly to the side.
"Uncle Tian, your strength is worthy of representing the city lord's palace in battle. Look at the appearance of this sick man. Walking such a short distance is actually more strenuous than Mo Tie carrying a three-hundred-pound sword. That's it. I’m afraid if such a person goes, it will only increase the burden on the team.”
Zuo Feng didn't pay much attention to Qin Xiao's bitter sarcasm. On the contrary, Uncle Tian showed a displeased look on his face and said in a deep voice: "I think you know how important this Spin Tower Trial is to the city lord. Since Zuo Feng has been arranged to replace you My brother naturally has his own plans. If you can guarantee victory in the end, I will let Zuo Feng go back and replace your brother."
After listening to Uncle Tian's words, Qin Xiao's face turned red and white. After a moment, she remembered what she had heard before about the strength of the other participants in the trial, and she swallowed the words that came to her lips. But when she looked at Zuo Feng again, her eyes became even more unkind.
After Uncle Tian asked about Zuo Feng's situation, he walked away alone. The man named Mo Tie took off the sword from his back, put it gently in his hand, and said to Zuo Feng with a smile.
"I heard that you are the contestant specially selected by the city lord this time, and I heard that the other participants in the trial this time are much better than in previous years. What is so great about you, why not reveal it to me."
Zuo Feng raised his eyes and looked at the rough man beside him. He didn't expect that under his rough appearance, he actually had such a troubled character.
Shaking his head, Zuo Feng said with a smile: "What's so great about me? I'm just an ordinary warrior practicing body training like you. I don't know if the other forces in Yancheng have also set off in advance. We are not moving fast. , I should meet them on the road.”
Zuo Feng casually muttered a few words to the big man, and then moved the topic elsewhere. Mo Tie looked at Zuo Feng thoughtfully, and then replied calmly: "Although we are all going to participate in the Spin Tower Trial, we will not take the same route. We set out at almost the same time. But nothing like this happens on the road.”
Although Zuo Feng felt strange about this arrangement, he did not want to spend more energy thinking about the reason. Then the big man continued to chat with Zuo Feng for a few words, just to find out the details of Zuo Feng. Zuo Feng answered in random directions, and in the end the big man didn't understand Zuo Feng at all.
In the next day and a half, the five people in this group walked around, although Qin Xiao would occasionally complain deliberately to try to get rid of Zuo Feng. But Zuo Fenggen ignored him completely and just went about his normal way and rested.
This journey was like a hard training for Zuo Feng. Zuo Feng, who was carrying a heavy "prison chain", was undoubtedly the most painful among these people. It was not until near noon on the third day that the group finally arrived at their destination.
A continuous mountain range appeared in front of everyone. The mountain was not steep, but the mountains seemed to be wrapped in light clouds and mist all year round, making it impossible for people to get a full view.
Uncle Tian was obviously very familiar with this place. After leading the four people to turn left and right in the mountains, they came to a mountain col. There is a lonely stone house standing here. Looking beyond the stone house, you can see a path hidden in the mist in the distance.
After arriving here, Uncle Tian said very solemnly: "Everyone, take a rest for a while and come to the stone house in half an hour. I have something to tell you."
After saying this, Uncle Tian entered the stone house on his own, and then there was the sound of a heavy door closing.
