Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 233: Don’t get involved in state affairs
Kang Zhen was wearing a long coat of soft material and coarse cloth today. With his handsome appearance, he looked like the kind of scholar who specializes in learning. Seeing Zuo Feng coming forward, Kang Zhen was overjoyed and ran down the second floor. Zuo Feng saw the opponent walking backwards to meet him, and hurriedly took a few steps forward to meet him.
Kang Zhen took Zuo Feng's hand and walked towards the second floor. This Juyun Inn can be considered a relatively large one in Luan City, but it is much smaller in scale than the three-story building owned by the city lord of Luan City.
As Zuo Feng followed Kang Zhen to the second floor, he couldn't help but look downstairs in confusion. This inn was not small, but there seemed to be no other residents or diners here. Kang Zhen seemed to have roughly guessed Zuo Feng's doubts, and said with a smile: "This 'Juyun Inn' is actually the private property of our Kang family. We usually receive some individual travelers here. It's just that during the annual auction, the inn will not be open during these few days." It’s open to the outside world.”
Only then did Zuo Feng realize that he had built an inn in such a remote place just to facilitate the annual auction. He couldn't help but admire the Kang family's strong financial resources.
The two went to the second floor, and Kang Zhen led Zuo Feng straight into a small hall. After Zuo Feng entered the house, he realized that this room was completely different from an ordinary guest room. The room they entered was more like a living room of a wealthy family. There was also a side hall next to it. Zuo Feng took a peek and saw that it seemed to be What the study looks like.
Kang Zhen explained with a smile: "This room is not open to the public even in normal times. It is my own private place to rest and practice. Of course, some old friends who come to see me will also gather here. Xiaoyou Shen must You’re not considered an outsider, so you don’t have to be cautious here, just treat it as if you’re back at home.”
Zuo Feng nodded lightly. Kang Zhen didn't need to explain. He had this guess as soon as he entered the room. The two of them were seated separately. After sitting down, Kang Zhen first smiled and said, "Young friend Shen Feng is not even eighteen years old, right?"
Zuo Feng smiled and shook his head and said, "I won't turn sixteen in a few months."
Kang Zhen originally guessed that Zuo Feng was young, but he didn't expect that Zuo Feng was not yet sixteen years old. After thinking about it for a while, he asked: "I think the clothes of little friend Shen Feng should come from Ye That’s right, Emperor Lin, I don’t know if there are any urgently needed items that I want to buy when I come to Luan City this time.”
When he told Zuo Feng's origin, Kang Zhen noticed that the young man in front of him was obviously nervous, so he continued: "There is no need to be nervous, little friend. I just want to see if there is anything I can do to help. Our Kang family You are still relatively small. If there is anything I can do, I will definitely help you. I will always remember the kindness of my friend who saved my little girl. "
After listening to his explanation, Zuo Feng's face softened again. Because he had experienced too many things before, Zuo Feng had to be extra careful now. There was nothing he could do about Yao Xun being able to guess his identity, but he didn't want the person he had known so recently to know too much about him.
Zuo Feng said with a smile: "I came out this time to gain some experience. Traveling around the mainland to expand my knowledge will also be of great help to my cultivation path."
Kang Zhen looked at Zuo Feng with a smile, knowing that the other party was still wary, but he could understand it. After all, it was understandable for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy to be cautious when he went out on his own.
Zuo Feng thought for a while and asked doubtfully: "Uncle Kang must have gained a lot from his travels. I'm curious as to why you can tell where I come from just by the way I dress?"
Kang Zhen smiled and picked up the tea cup next to him, and at the same time motioned to Zuo Feng not to be polite, then he slowly took a sip of tea and said: "The Yelin Empire is considered a relatively hot place on the mainland, so the people there are wearing thinner clothes. . And because there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in Yelin, people usually tie their trousers and shoes and socks together.”
As he spoke, Kang Zhen pointed at Zuo Feng's ankle. Only then did Zuo Feng notice a habit he had in dressing since he was a child. When he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Kang Zhen paused for a moment before continuing: "Most people from the ancient empire belong to a certain sect, and these people will have certain marks on them."
When Kang Zhen said this, Zuo Feng also immediately thought of the few people he met in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range and the few Xiaoyao Pavilion disciples who died in his hands. Indeed, one could tell the difference at a glance in their attire. Kang Zhen's voice sounded again and said: "In addition, the ancient desert empire was very windy and sandy. People living there liked to wear wind robes, and some clothes would even have a hood specially sewn on them."
Zuo Feng couldn't help but nodded slightly, because the "Huan Sheng" he had seen before came from the ancient wilderness, and her clothes were exactly the same as what Kang Zhen said.
"Our Xuanwu Empire has steep mountains and rocks, so a pair of gloves are usually sewn into our clothes to facilitate climbing over rocks without wearing out the palms. However, my clothes rarely have this feature, but the clothes worn by my servants do. It will be so.”
Hearing Kang Zhen mention the Xuanwu Empire, he was moved and said casually, "Although I used to live in Yelin, I have heard about a big shot in the Xuanwu Empire. I wonder if Uncle Kang knows that medicine hunchback."
Hearing the three words "Yao Tuozi", Kang Zhen's face instantly became serious. He hesitated for a long time before saying: "How could I not recognize this Yao Tuozi? No one living in Xuanwu doesn't know him, let alone Our family started by refining medicine.”
When Zuo Feng heard this, although he remained calm on the surface, his attention became more concentrated. Kang Zhen paused and then continued: "Because I am not from the Xuanwu Empire, you may not know that this medicine hunchback has been canonized as the national master of our Xuanwu Empire some time ago. He is not only skilled in refining medicine. , and the art of making poison is unparalleled in the world, but I don’t know why my little friend is interested in this person?”
Zuo Feng naturally did not dare to say that a friend had been poisoned by the "soul-transforming liquid", because the poison was so special. If Kang Zhen was determined to investigate the matters related to the soul-transforming liquid in the Ye Lin Empire during this period, I am afraid it would not take long for him to do so. I realize that I am the left wind.
Zuo Feng smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Kang, I don't know. I also like the art of alchemy. Although I have only just begun to get a glimpse of alchemy, I also hope to know more about these masters of alchemy."
After Kang Zhen was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help laughing "haha", and then he looked at Zuo Feng with deep meaning and said: "I'm afraid my little friend is not only extremely skilled in refining medicine, but also has reached the master level in wine making." Level it up.”
When Zuo Feng heard these words, his face could not help but feel hot. He himself knew best that whether it was the original "Wangyou Zui" or the "Wangyou Zui" improved with Yaoxun's help, these formulas and brewing techniques were not something Zuo Feng could develop by himself. Those who didn't know him were fine, but such sincere praise from Kang Zhen still made Zuo Feng feel a little embarrassed.
With a thought in his heart, Zuo Feng took out a porcelain vase from his arms and gently placed it on the table in front of Kang Zhen. Kang Zhen was slightly stunned at first, then grabbed it with excitement, uncorked the bottle, put it in the bottle and smelled it, with an intoxicated look on his face.
After a while, Kang Zhen opened his eyes, looked at Zuo Feng with some embarrassment and said: "Actually, I also heard about some things last night. The three major families plus one was punished by the Yinsha Gang, and it was spent on your side. I haven't even talked about it for a long time. I think this is the 'Wangyou Druid' that is spreading in the city now. I..."
Seeing Kang Zhen's appearance, Zuo Feng also smiled and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. The medicinal materials are not my own. I just put some effort into brewing them. Although I still want to give the uncle a few more bottles, But I only got this bottle."
Zuo Feng was also a little depressed. He spent a long time trying to get such a bottle from Yaoxun. Thinking about it now makes Zuo Feng a little angry.
"Enough, enough. This bottle has already flattered me. You also know that people like us don't care about the price anymore, but this wine is no longer something that can be purchased with money."
Zuo Feng nodded slightly and said, "Don't you want to try it, Dashu?"
Kang Zhen smiled and shook his head and said: "Although I also want to taste this wine, it would be too wasteful for me to drink it. I plan to wait until my Qiuqiu reaches the advanced stage of bone refining before giving it to her. I think It will be very helpful for her practice.”
Hearing this, Zuo Feng couldn't help but look at Kang Zhen in front of him again. No matter how prominent his status was or how rich his family wealth was, what people valued most was their children. At first, Anxiong did many extreme things for the sake of the county governor, but his temperament changed drastically after Anya was poisoned. Although Zuo Feng didn't see it with his own eyes, he knew something about it from the rumors.
Zuo Feng nodded and continued: "I wonder if Uncle Kang has ever seen this medicine hunchback with his own eyes. What kind of person is he?"
Kang Zhen saw that Zuo Feng cared so much about the medicine hunchback, and thought for a while and said: "I have only seen him twice from a distance, and that was when the Xuanwu Empire summoned various families to the imperial capital. I stood far away among the crowd. Seen from a distance.
This drug hunchback looks like he is in his fifties, but it is said that his actual age is definitely much higher than that. On the surface, this person seems to have a cold personality, giving people the appearance of not being able to enter with strangers, so we went to many aristocratic families together, but no one talked to him. "
"Then he still lives in the imperial capital?"
Kang Zhen shook his head and said: "Although Yao Tuozi's name is well-known in the Xuanwu Empire, few people really know where he lives. It seems that he will only appear in the imperial capital when there are special orders from the empire."
"Special mission?"
Zuo Feng said doubtfully, and Kang Zhen said smoothly: "It's nothing more than those assassinations..., well, this, don't talk about state affairs, don't involve state affairs!" When Kang Zhen said this, he seemed to think of something, and immediately stopped talking in embarrassment. .
