Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 521: Complex and Difficult to Understand
As soon as Zuo Feng said this, he already felt something was wrong. Even if it was Su Yan, he would not question the other party like this again, not to mention that Su Yan was not here at the moment. This time, the two of them came to ask for information, and the other party had every reason to refuse to pay attention, and even casually threw out sporadic useless information.
But this middle-aged man not only revealed all the information, but also did not throw away the details of these important information. This can be said to have given face to the two, or to the Su family.
But Zuo Feng's questioning would be difficult for ordinary people to accept, not to mention that this middle-aged man was still a member of the Xie family. He, Zuo Feng, was not qualified to talk to others like this. It was not like asking for help from others. This was completely the attitude of interrogating his subordinates.
Amber might be the one who could understand Zuo Feng the most, because he knew why Zuo Feng's attitude had changed so much. Because according to Zuo Feng, the person who commanded the action last night and came to the inn in person was City Lord Lin. Just now, the middle-aged man mentioned that City Lord Lin entertained important guests in the City Lord's Mansion, but it seemed to completely erase City Lord Lin's suspicion.
Sure enough, after Zuo Feng finished speaking, the middle-aged man behind the counter looked up at Zuo Feng with some displeasure. However, he did not do anything else as the two had guessed, and did not even say a word of blame.
Just because Zuo Feng interrupted his train of thought, the middle-aged man paused for a moment, as if he wanted to find his train of thought again. Although Zuo Feng was surprised, he still hurriedly said: "It was the junior who was reckless just now. I hope you don't mind. It's just that this news is very important to us now."
The reason why Zuo Feng chose to use the word "we" is of course to let the middle-aged man know that Su Yan was also among those who were shocked by this.
Nodding with a gloomy face, the middle-aged man spoke again: "Because the host yesterday was the leader of the Qingtuan, one of the five Yangtuans of Baitai, and there were also several people with quite a background, so this news is almost certainly true."
After a slight pause, as if seeing that Zuo Feng attached great importance to this news, the middle-aged man finally added: "Although we know that they probably talked about the selection of this competition, we are not very clear about the specific content. We know that these people probably left at about ten o'clock in the morning, and Lord Lin went out after dawn, and then returned to the mansion and never left again."
Nodding slowly, Zuo Feng indicated that he understood, and also expressed his gratitude. In his heart, he was thinking, 'It is estimated that he left at dawn when he came to see me, but did he do anything else besides seeing me. He needs to confirm my situation in person, but why did he have such a strong murderous intent when he came in the morning. '
Zuo Feng couldn't help but think of the situation when he met Lord Lin this morning. In addition to the murderous intent that was faintly revealed, the anger that he carried could not be completely concealed. This shows that he was very depressed about the failure of last night's operation, which is also an important reason why he was very likely involved in it. Zuo Feng was more certain that the man last night was City Lord Lin.
It was like when everything was already in his hands, he suddenly found himself ignorant. The shock was unimaginable for ordinary people. Especially now that Zuo Feng was in Tushan City, and there were powerful enemies around him, if he didn't understand the situation, he and Amber would be in danger of their lives.
Now he felt that Su Yan's departure was the right choice. If he still stayed with him at this time, it would be a very dangerous choice.
The middle-aged man saw Zuo Feng's expression constantly changing, but he didn't rush to speak, as if he was giving Zuo Feng time to digest everything he had just said.
When Zuo Feng looked up at him again, the middle-aged man continued calmly: "It can only be confirmed that the chaos last night was not caused by one force, and I think you should know the purpose of their coming to Yuanshan Inn. But what happened later was more strange. Many warriors' things were stolen, and it is impossible to find out which party did it, but it is certain that it should not be done by one or two people."
When the middle-aged man said this, his eyes unconsciously swept over Zuo Feng and Amber. Both of them could clearly feel the suspicious eyes, but they did not show any unnaturalness. After all, neither of them was a fledgling boy.
Zuo Feng understood that this confidential station must be collecting intelligence everywhere. According to their inference, Zuo Feng and Amber had a lot of suspicion, but once these suspicions were pressed on them, they would become very unreasonable.
First of all, among the warriors whose items were stolen, one of them had reached the initial and middle stages of muscle hardening. Such warriors are very alert when practicing. Once someone approaches, they will be aware of it. Moreover, moving things around is more difficult than secretly killing these warriors.
The two people in front of me are at the peak of the bone refining stage and the early stage of bone refining. How can they do the things just mentioned with such cultivation?
In addition, the things stolen last night are classified into various categories. Not to mention one person, it would be difficult for more than a dozen people to take them away secretly.
Of course, this suspicion is based on the premise that there are no storage crystals and other storage items. Who would have thought that this seemingly inconspicuous young man in front of me not only carries the storage crystals that warriors dream of, but also has the kind of nano crystals that only exist in legends.
Besides, Zuo Feng's strength at the peak of the Bone Refining Stage and his strange body movements were rarely seen, so it was difficult to pin these suspicions on the two of them.
So the middle-aged man's suspicious eyes only swept over the two of them, and then he spoke again.
"Afterwards, riots broke out in several places at the same time, and the warriors started fighting. Some people died on the spot, and some people's belongings were robbed. Although it was initially determined that the thieves were a group of black-clad men, many masked warriors appeared later, and they were also quite suspicious."
Zuo Feng knew a little about these situations, because later he wanted to muddy the water and then take off the City Lord's Mansion. Now it seems that his plan can be considered successful. Now even this confidential station is uncertain, let alone others. Don't think about what happened last night.
The middle-aged man was also a little helpless about this, because the chaos that happened last night was too wide, and it suddenly appeared in the middle of the night, so he could only get this little bit.
Looking up, the middle-aged man glanced at the sky outside the window, and then said: "The body of the first black-clothed man last night was left in Yuanshan Inn, which is the room you are staying in. The identities of two of the three people cannot be determined. Although some people say that they are a pair of thieves many years ago, this cannot be verified, and the two people many years ago should have died.
The other person has no identity at all, and there is no token that can be verified on him, so the identities of these three can only be temporarily determined as a member of a Yin group. Because only the people of the Yin group are the ones whose true identities cannot be found out."
Hearing what the middle-aged man said, Amber hesitated for a moment, and said respectfully: "We two also heard some rumors today, saying that one of them is a member of the Yang group. Is this rumor completely groundless?"
This time, Amber did not speak like Zuo Feng before, and was very polite, so the middle-aged man did not show any dissatisfaction this time. After looking at Amber, he nodded and said, "What you said is true. Although the body of one of the men in black had a facial injury, he could vaguely be identified as a member of the Yang Group.
However, soon someone discovered that the so-called member of the Yang Group appeared in an auction house, and the previous speculations were naturally shattered."
After listening to the middle-aged man's words, Amber and Zuo Feng couldn't help but look at each other, and they both saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes. Because Zuo Feng once mentioned that none of the three people killed last night had facial injuries, but the man just said that the facial injuries of one of them were enough to make his identity difficult to distinguish.
Zuo Feng slowly turned his head to look at the middle-aged man, and slowly said, "At first, I suspected that the deceased belonged to one of the Yang Groups. Which Yang Group is it? I wonder if you can tell me."
If according to the middle-aged man's previous speculation, the matter has reached this point and there is no need to pursue it further. Since the person himself has appeared, those suspicions will naturally be shattered. But Zuo Feng felt that something was a bit strange. Although he couldn't grasp the key point now, he still felt that this "resurrected" person might be a key point.
The middle-aged man stood behind the counter, and his eyes gradually became deeper when he looked at Zuo Feng, as if he wanted to see through Zuo Feng. After a long time, he slowly closed the book in front of him and said, "Qingtuan".
After that, the middle-aged man took a cup of tea from the side and held it up. Zuo Feng understood that the other party had the intention to see him off, so he had to clasp his fists and bow, and said softly, "Thank you, goodbye."
Watching the two figures slowly disappear outside the closed door, the middle-aged man's hand holding the tea trembled slightly, but a hint of intriguing smile flashed across his face.
But at this time, Fengsuo and Amber had already left, and they could not see the middle-aged man's expression at all. As the door closed, the sky outside began to gradually dim, and the quaint rice shop returned to calm again, as if it should be like this here, and Zuo Feng's appearance destroyed the atmosphere here.
"Can the middle-aged man's words be trusted? Why is it so different from what we know?" Amber finally couldn't help but speak.
Zuo Feng turned his head slightly and glanced at the tightly closed door of the rice shop behind him. After a long while, he replied, "Anyway, let's go back to the inn first. I'm afraid the situation in Tushan City is much more complicated than I thought."
