Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 178: Golden Silkworm Shedding its Shell
Just as Zuo Feng said, the only person he could trust and ask for help was Ding Hao. If the situation was not so urgent, he would have settled his parents down himself, but now that the situation was so urgent, he had no choice but to give up his original plan.
Just now, Zuo Feng subconsciously thought that Ding Hao was the only one who might have leaked his whereabouts, but this was purely logical. At present, the only one who knew that he had returned to Yancheng, apart from the people present, was Uncle Tian, whom he had met today. But if Uncle Tian wanted to capture Zuo Feng, he would not have to go through so much trouble, so Zuo Feng came to this conclusion completely based on logical analysis.
But in a moment, Zuo Feng thought that it was impossible for Ding Hao to betray him. Although Ding Hao had many opportunities to leave secret codes when he entered the city with him. And during the time when he and Zhuang Yu went to the City Lord's Mansion to treat Anya, he also had the opportunity to take advantage of Zuo Hou not being contacted.
With so many possibilities in front of him, Zuo Feng still stubbornly believed that the news would never be leaked from Ding Hao. He believed in Ding Hao, and there was no reason to talk. Just like when the two of them were fighting on the fourth floor of the spiral tower, when Ding Hao threw the wine pot over, Zuo Feng drank it without thinking too much. He trusted Ding Hao, just like he trusted everything he saw with his heart's "eyes".
Since Ding Hao had already agreed, Zuo Feng didn't say anything else, but followed Mo Tie out of the shop. Shortly after Zuo Feng and Mo Tie left, Zuo Hou and Ding Hao also brought Qin Xiao, who was dressed exactly like Zuo Feng before, and the three of them went in another direction after leaving the shop.
Zuo Feng followed Mo Tie, and his rough figure and the huge saber on his shoulder almost completely covered Zuo Feng behind him. But even so, after leaving the Zuo Family Mountain Goods Shop, Zuo Feng still felt several sharp eyes around him looking at him.
These eyes could make Zuo Feng feel sensitive, which also proved that although the person who was peeping in the dark had a good cultivation, he had not reached the level of the Tempering Tendon Stage. Zuo Feng didn't have to worry about his second-level cultivation of the Bone Refining Stage being easily seen by these people.
The two walked out of the side street at a leisurely pace. Zuo Feng found that those eyes lingered on him for a while and then automatically retracted, which also made him relax a little. At the same time when the two left the side street, Zuo Hou and the other three also left the store.
In contrast to Zuo Feng's situation, the three of them immediately alerted the people who were watching outside as soon as they left the store. Although Ding Hao noticed that the situation around him was very special, he did not show any emotion at all. The three of them had only one task at the moment, which was to wander around the city with these tails.
Mo Tie took Zuo Feng to the main street deliberately. At this time, the pedestrians on the street were gradually becoming sparse. After all, it was close to curfew time, and everyone needed to rush back home or to their respective inns.
At this moment, on the top of a hill less than five miles away from Yancheng, a middle-aged man in a green shirt stood on a large stone. The middle-aged man in a green shirt had a conspicuous light green hair crown on his head. This person was Linlang, the governor of Dongjun. The middle-aged man in green shirt narrowed his eyes and slowly said, "Is the news reliable?"
Beside Linlang in green shirt, a short dwarf also imitated him and kept looking into the distance, sneering and saying, "Don't worry, my spies are one of the best in Dongjun. Although I'm not sure that the woman is Zuo Feng in disguise. But the young man with a big hood is Ding Hao, and the other boy with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks should be Zuo Feng's friend from the same village."
"I hope the information is accurate this time." Linlang's voice was cold, and the two golden armored warriors behind him couldn't help but shudder. Because they didn't find any trace of Zuo Feng before dark, Linlang was furious and executed one of the golden armored warriors on the spot.
Coincidentally, this unlucky guy who was killed as a chicken to scare the monkeys was the golden armored warrior who led people to search the hut where Zuo Feng stayed, but left without finding anything. From this incident, it was not wrong for Linlang to kill him.
But not long after this guy was executed, the spies of the dwarf Meng Zhen in Yancheng made new discoveries, which were what Meng Zhen had said before. Although it was impossible to confirm that the woman was Zuo Feng in disguise, Linlang also roughly guessed that she had killed her subordinates by mistake, but his character would never admit his mistakes. Instead, he issued a more stringent order, "If Zuo Feng escapes again this time, everyone will be executed together."
So at this time, the two golden armored warriors beside him were a little scared, and at the same time they were constantly looking forward to other companions to catch the boy named Zuo Feng, otherwise with Linlang's character, it is really possible to kill them all in anger.
When they were trained, they were supposed to deal with the hidden hands of other empires. But they also knew their mission, which was used by Linlang to eliminate dissidents. But after the confrontation with Xing Yezui in the Commander's Mansion, Linlang also found that not only were his arrangements under the eyes of others, but the other party's preparations were obviously much more sufficient than his own.
So now if these people cannot complete this mission for Linlang, they have lost the value of existence.
"Mr. County Magistrate, I still feel that your strategy is somewhat inappropriate. If Zuo Feng and his men fail to escape successfully or encounter other misfortunes, then wouldn't we be doing a great favor to the Tenth Elders and their men?"
As soon as the dwarf finished speaking, a murderous aura emitted from Linlang's surroundings, and the two golden-armored warriors felt that the hairs on their bodies suddenly stood up. Then Linlang's voice sounded again, but there was a hint of resentment in his tone.
"Hmph, you know nothing. If you had tried that boy's power with your own hands, you wouldn't have asked such stupid questions just now. You can beat a strong man like Zhang Yu, who is at the first level of Qi Sensing Stage, like a sandbag. , do you still have that idiotic idea just now?”
These words were not polite at all, but the dwarf did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he put on a smile and said: "Yes, yes, how can I catch up with the county governor? These things are probably only Only the Sheriff can see so clearly. I am here..."
"That's enough. Stop talking about your nonsense. How are the arrangements?"
The muscles on the dwarf's face trembled, and it was clear that his heart was not as peaceful as it looked on the outside. However, the cultivation level of a dwarf is generally only at the second level of Qi Sensing Stage. With such strength, it is still a bit reluctant to serve as a city lord. But he has been relying on flattery and adapting to the situation, and has made it to today without any surprises. So when Linlang treated him like that, he could still control his expression and tone very well, without showing any trace of dissatisfaction.
"The Sheriff is strategizing, and I have also followed your instructions and arranged my people around your ten groups of people. They can echo each other from a distance, and at the same time, they can protect the entire periphery of Yancheng from wind and rain."
After hearing these words, Linlang's expression finally softened a little, and she looked at the Yancheng Plain in front of her again. There is a vast plain outside Yancheng. Any small movement will be exposed to the observation posts on the city wall. Therefore, Linlang and the dwarf Meng Zhen could only place the ambush troops in the dense forest outside the plain.
But wherever there are disadvantages, there will definitely be advantages. Although they cannot get closer to form an encirclement, this plain is also within their sight. Even if there is a little trouble, it cannot escape the eyes of these people.
At this time, Mo Tie and Zuo Feng had arrived at the western city gate. The reason why they chose this place is because it is the closest to the east county city or the imperial capital when leaving Yancheng. Of course, the defense here is also the most lax. of.
If there is really an enemy invasion, they will attack the east gate or south gate first. Therefore, the soldiers stationed at the west gate can be regarded as the most laid-back team in Yancheng.
Before the two came to the city gate, the city gate was already closed. The night guard at the city gate shouted loudly: "Get back from the forbidden area of the city gate. The city gate is not open after nightfall. Get away from me quickly."
The guard didn't even see the person coming clearly, he just saw two black figures in the distance and shouted loudly.
"Hey, isn't this Jia San? Why are you so angry today?"
Mo Tie walked forward as he spoke, and the guard finally saw the two people coming over clearly, and said with some surprise: "Ah, isn't this Brother Mo? Does the Lord of the City have any instructions? You know what happened recently. Most of the time, no matter what the order is, I need to see the city lord’s token before I can execute it.”
Mo Tie smiled naively and said, "Why are you putting Brother Jia in trouble? The city lord asked us to go out of the city to do some urgent things, and he hopes to make it convenient for us."
As Mo Tie spoke, he took out a jade plaque from his arms. While Mo Tie handed it over, Zuo Feng also took a peek at it. This jade tablet is crystal clear, with a faint smooth flow on it, which is obviously not ordinary. Moreover, there is a word "xiong" engraved on the surface of the jade tablet. I think this is the token of the city lord.
The city guard named Jia San took the jade token, looked at it, and immediately handed it back to Mo Tie with a smile. At the same time, he loudly said a code word to the city gate. Soon after, there was a sound of stirring iron chains above the city gate, and the huge city gate began to move slightly.
"Miss Qin turns out to be here too. Hey, Miss Qin seems to have lost a lot of weight in the past few days!" Jia San looked up and down Zuo Feng with a lustful light in his eyes, seeming to feel that the "Qin Xiao" in front of him was different from his impression. It was different. Apparently Jia San had secretly paid attention to Qin Xiao.
"Brother Jia San, we still have something urgent to do. Let's talk when we get back." Mo Tie walked towards the city gate. Just as he walked past Jia San, he happened to see Jia San staring at him with twinkling eyes. Hold on to the left wind.
Gritting his teeth, Mo Tie pressed his hand on the huge hilt of the sword.
