Dark night, silent hilltop.

The walls of the city, made of crumbling boulders, looked like a huge black dragon crawling in the clearing at the top of the hill in the middle of the night.

Zuo Feng carefully concealed his body behind a tree, and spread out his telekinesis to carefully probe every part of the city wall. The eyes were no longer of much use, so they simply closed the two tightly, so that they could better concentrate on sensing everything on the city wall.

But after a quarter of an hour had passed, Zuo Feng was already feeling a little tired again, and such a non-stop careful investigation was still a little unbearable for him now. But he was already certain that there was not a single life fluctuation on the wall.

After a little hesitation, the left wind had already made a decision, and quickly sprang out from behind the trees, speeding all the way to the ground. The place where he was hiding was on the edge of a jungle at the top of the mountain, and a few dozen feet beyond was an open field, where it was difficult to find shelter to hide his figure.

Zuo Feng had to lower his body as low as possible, and his knees would almost touch his chest slightly when he raised his legs and walked. If you stand on the city wall and look down, you will vaguely see a black figure like a whirlwind, turning left and right and moving towards the city wall.

In this way, if another person suddenly appears in the city, it is difficult to lock it with a bow and arrow. Although it had been determined that there should be no one on the city wall, after the previous changes, Zuo Feng did not dare to be careless.

Soon he came to the city wall, the city wall was only about three or four zhang high, and he did not dare to blatantly walk through the city gate, he could only carefully climb up along the city wall. Fortunately, the stones used to build the city walls are of different sizes, so there are inevitably gaps that can be used to climb, and with the skill of the left wind, that is, in a few breaths, you have reached the city wall.

He cautiously bared half of his head and looked at the city wall, and when he saw that there was no one, he jumped up. There was hardly the slightest sound of his feet landing on the rough city wall, and after landing on the ground, Zuo Feng immediately leaned down and looked around, and he immediately saw two corpses lying on the ground not far away.

Zuo Feng gently moved his footsteps to the two corpses, the corpses already had a faint smell of decay, and it seemed that they had been dead for a few days. Judging by his dress, he should be the thief in charge of the sentry in this cottage, and after checking the surrounding environment, he found no traces of a fight, which means that the two were attacked and killed by someone when they were sentry.

Seeing this, and thinking of the corpse of the bandit hanging on the stake outside Zuojia Village, Zuo Feng was already more sure of his previous guess.

After a brief walk around the city walls, a total of six bodies were found in the same dead state. Seeing that there were no other clues, Zuo Feng would not waste time here, Zuo Feng glanced at the layout in the city wall, determined the direction and floated down from the city wall.

It takes a bit of effort to climb the height of this wall, but if you jump down from here, the left wind is still very sure, and only a stone with a protrusion is picked in the middle, and after a buffer, it falls safely to the ground.

After landing on the ground, Zuofeng immediately dodged into a hut that he had been optimistic about before, and as soon as he entered the hut, Zuofeng smelled a smell of rotting corpses.

Zuo Feng chose to enter this hut first for his purpose, the hut was located next to the city wall, and it looked like it was supposed to be used by the city wall guards to rest after their shifts. From the windows of the hut, you can clearly see the other three directions, so that if something changes, the left wind can also notice it immediately.

These were all planned in a short period of time after Zuo Feng came to the city and saw the layout below. He firmly believes that only by being careful and careful can he live for a long time, after all, his cultivation is not high, and his experience is not rich. Then you need to rely on your own calm analysis and careful action in order to survive in this harsh environment, and he thinks so and does so.

After a brief examination in the house, there was nothing but three corpses, and it was supposed that the three people who had died were killed in their sleep. Zuo Feng's mind had already appeared that the three of them had come back from a shift change, and they had just fallen asleep, when several gray figures sneaked into the house and killed the three of them silently.

All three of them were killed with a single knife and the knife was neatly stabbed, and they were obviously veterans in this area, and their wounds should be the same as those of the six people on the city wall. If you can kill these people without realizing it, the cultivation of the killer must not be low, at least the strength of the tempering period.

After looking out of the window for a while, he probed again with his mental power to make sure that no one was lurking in the shadows, and then Zuo Feng went out of the hut. After inspecting several houses one after another, the people in the houses were basically killed in their sleep, and Zuo Feng did not check it as carefully as before. It seems that the people here must have been killed, and the killer must have been gone for some time.

Jumping onto the roof, Zuo Feng took a closer look at the surrounding buildings again, and a courtyard several times larger than the other houses came into view. He knew very well that this should be the place where the leader of this group of bandits was, and if he could still find something, he would probably only be here.

Jumping off the roof of the house, the left wind let go of all the speed, and it only took a few breaths to reach the outside of the walls of this farm. The wall of the village is not too high, and when he stepped on the soles of his feet, his body shot at the wall like an arrow, and he only paused at the head of the wall, and saw the largest house in the village, and quickly swept towards this house.

It was a small two-story building, about the same size as the small building where the eldest lady of the City Lord's Mansion lived, but it looked a little shabby and rough. Stepping into the hall of the small building, he just entered a pungent smell of blood, accompanied by the smell of rancidity, which made Zuo Feng feel nauseous.

As far as the eye could see, there was not a single piece of furniture intact in the hall, and the walls and pillars around it were covered with traces of fighting and blood splattered on them. At this moment, the blood stains had already turned into black-brown blood scabs. It seems that they have not been able to carry out the assassination as successfully as before, and the bandit side has put up a desperate resistance here.

Walking towards the hall, Zuo Feng carefully looked for a place to stay, because it was full of corpses and severed limbs, and Zuo Feng endured the strong smell of blood and rancid smell around him, and carefully checked everything on the ground while walking towards the hall.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank slightly, and he ran towards a corner, grabbing a short sword from the side of a bloody corpse. Although this short sword style looked very ordinary, after he slowly took out a short sword from his arms and put the two together, Zuo Feng's gaze immediately became solemn.

In his right hand was a delicately shaped short sword, this short sword came from the package of the little six sons he had killed before, and the short sword in his left hand, although the surface shimmered with a miserable white metallic luster, but the two could still be vaguely identified, but the body of the short sword in his left hand was a little thinner.

It must have been the weapon used by the group, but it had scraped off the iconic double blood groove on the sword. Zuo Feng made up his mind in his heart, he was almost certain that everything here was done by the group of gray-clothed people, and to be able to determine the identity of the perpetrator so well, Zuo Feng's trip was not worth it.

Following the traces of the fight, Zuo Feng continued to walk inside, where there were fewer and fewer corpses, but it could be seen that the intensity of the fight had not weakened but intensified.

It seems that several masters of the bandits are desperately trying to protect something and prevent this group of killers from rushing into the back room. When a corpse leaning against the wall appeared in front of Zuo Feng's eyes, Zuo Feng was also slightly stunned. Because this person has turned purple all over, his eyes are much bulging outward, but there is very little blood on his body.

Being able to become like this after death, which Zuo Feng has seen before, is the result of using Violent Qi to disintegrate. Zuo Feng guessed that this bandit should be cultivated to a high level, and he did not hesitate to use his violent qi to disintegrate to stop people, so his interest in the inner room was even greater.

Walking towards the inside again, there were few corpses here, and the traces of the fight were gradually decreasing. It shows that the strength of the remaining warriors is relatively low, and they are no longer able to stop the killer's progress. Soon Zuofeng entered the inner room, which contained a study-like room and a staircase leading to the second floor.

After a little hesitation, Zuo Feng still chose to go to the second floor first, because the traces of the fight extended towards the second floor, and it seemed that the killer's target should be on the second floor. After a dozen steps, the left wind came to the corridor on the second floor, and at a glance, he found that the area of the second floor was obviously much smaller than the first floor, and it seemed that the second floor should be the bedroom of the owner of this small building.

Entering the largest of the rooms, there was no sign of a fight in it, but it seemed to be very messy as if someone was looking for something. After searching Zuofeng carefully and finding nothing, he continued to enter the second room.

The second bedroom is obviously arranged and decorated in the appearance of a woman's boudoir, Zuo Feng recalled carefully, from entering the hall downstairs until here, no woman's body was found, so this represents a message. This cottage, more precisely, has female survivors in this building. After searching the remaining rooms, Zuo Feng found that there was more than one female bedroom on the second floor.

This is supposed to be the residence of the leader of the bandits, so if these female boudoirs are not the rooms of his wife and concubines, they should be the rooms of his daughters, and he has not found any female bodies, so it is possible that these women have fled from here. Could it be that the purpose of those killers is that these women can't succeed, Zuo Feng feels that this possibility should not be very large.

Returning to the first floor again, entering a room that looked like a study that he hadn't entered before, it was hard for him to imagine that a bandit leader could recognize a few words, and there was such a small study.

A male corpse in a brocade robe lay in the corner of the wall, the corpse's eyes widened with a shocked and inexplicable expression. Zuo Feng just glanced at it with disgust, and then focused on the other objects in the room.

The books in the study were thrown around, and the desk was also a mess, Zuo Feng only glanced at it and didn't notice anything special, so he was ready to leave immediately.

But just as he turned around, he suddenly paused, took a closer look at the corpse in the brocade robe again, and then his gaze froze slightly, looking towards the position of the corpse's finger.
