Chapter 506: The City Lord Visits

readx;

When Zuo Feng withdrew from his spiritual realm, the sky had already begun to brighten. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After a busy night, the inn finally began to become a little quieter, especially the second floor, which seemed to exist in a forgotten corner.

Originally, this place had nothing to do with the accident that happened last night, and the people who lived on the second floor were not qualified and brave enough to participate in the robbery last night. Therefore, after Amber and Zuo Feng returned late at night, the second floor of this inn became an existence that was somewhat incompatible with the entire inn.

But at this time, a sound of footsteps pulled Zuo Feng's thoughts back, if it was an ordinary footstep, it would not have attracted Zuo Feng's attention at all, but this sudden footstep sound immediately aroused Zuo Feng's vigilance.

It was almost impossible to hear any sound from the footsteps, and even with a keen ear like Zuo Feng, it was difficult to distinguish that the subtle sound was the sound of footsteps landing. But even so, Zuo Feng was still sure that the corridor was the footsteps of a martial artist, and the other party was still a master.

And Zuo Feng guessed that the other party should be a little uneasy, otherwise, with this person's cultivation and ability, it would be impossible for him to detect it, and I am afraid that the other party would not necessarily feel it when he walked to the door.

The faint sound slowly approached, and the other party didn't seem to hesitate at all, but went straight to his side. The footsteps paused only slightly as they reached Amber's door, as if they hesitated there for a moment.

At this time, a tall, thin, and white-haired figure had already come to mind, and the words "City Lord Lin" almost rushed out of his mouth, but Zuo Feng still suppressed this impulse. Such a high-profile shout that he already knew that the other party was coming, and guessed the identity of the other party, which was very unfavorable to himself, Zuo Feng finally gave up this brother's impulse.

A moment later, there was a knock on Zuo Feng's door, and Zuo Feng deliberately sat down and paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "Come in, the door is not bolted." ”

Zuo Feng deliberately spoke so casually, just to make the other party think that he was treating the outsider as an innkeeper.

The door was slowly pushed open, and Zuo Feng deliberately did not turn his head to look, his eyes still fell on the inn courtyard outside the window. He said lightly: "It's breakfast ready, go next door and call my friend." ”

Zuo Feng's tone was calm and there were no mood swings when he spoke, but he could feel a pair of bad hunting eyes staring at him, making him feel awkward with a thorn in his back. He knew that the other party was closely observing his every move, and if the other party saw any problems, it was not impossible to do it directly here.

I can feel the aura of opposition slowly rising, and the feeling of danger like a bowstring being drawn at me has been haunting my heart. But always facing away from each other like this, I'm afraid that over time, the other party will be more aware of the problem.

Thinking of this, Zuo Feng secretly gritted his teeth slightly, and his expression immediately turned slowly into a slightly dissatisfied color, and said in his mouth: "Didn't you hear my words, didn't you explain that you used to call my friend to get up." Uh, it turned out to be the lord of the city, rude, rude,"

The look of dissatisfaction on his face immediately turned into an extremely embarrassed smile after seeing the other party.

"I didn't expect it to be the Lord of Lin City coming, I was still thinking about taking the time to visit you today, why should the juniors go to visit, please sit inside." ”

At the moment when Zuo Feng just turned around, there was a faint murderous intent in the other party's knife-like eyes. Zuo Feng felt that he had not guessed wrong, if he did not deal with it well, the other party might really take his life.

Fortunately, Zuo Feng turned around decisively, so that the other party had no chance to brew the killing aura in his heart. Zuo Feng's performance was quite natural, because this was the result of the rehearsal he had just rehearsed in his mind several times, and he thought that he could still barely fool in front of this old fox.

Although the killing intent on the face of the Lin City Lord was restrained, the aura in his body was still agitated. These Zuo Feng were naturally keenly aware that the other party still hadn't lost the heart to kill him at this moment.

After a little hesitation, Zuo Feng pretended to be stunned and said, "Look at the appearance of the city lord who seems to be angry, I think the city lord must have come because a few of us did not stay in the upper room according to your arrangement." I also considered that I was a little presumptuous in Bald Mountain Town before, so I didn't dare to be too unruly when I got here.

The city lord booked a room for us, which is the love of the juniors, but the juniors can't go cheekily, and I hope that the city lord will not worry more about our juniors. ”

Zuo Feng said this generously and decently, not only bringing up the matter that he and the others did not move into the upper room first, but also using this way to ease the awkward atmosphere between the two parties a little.

City Lord Lin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and walked towards the room. Although Zuo Feng still had a respectful smile on his expression, he exhaled a long breath in his heart.

Although the two of them seemed extremely calm on the surface, in fact, there was a dark tide surging under the calm appearance just now, and Zuo Feng knew that if he didn't cope well, he would be in danger of being shipwrecked. The moment the Lord of Lin City came here, he seemed to firmly believe that he was secretly playing ghosts, and at the same time, he also had the determination to erase himself at all costs.

But for some reason, this determination was shaken at a critical time. If Zuo Feng judged him, he should never be so dragging the mud and underwater without making a decision. Although Zuo Feng tried his best to hide his suspicions, anyone who looked at the situation last night, Zuo Feng should have played an important role in it.

Although he didn't have any substantial eight handles in his hands, with the strength of the Lin City Lord and those people last night, just if he was suspicious, he could directly kill and ignore the others. But now the other party obviously has no suspicions, but he is willing to stop fighting with himself, which makes Zuo Feng a little confused.

At this moment, Zuo Feng was a little unclear about City Lord Lin, not because the other party was too cunning, but because the other party was too easy to fool. Since the situation was very favorable to him, of course Zuo Feng would not say anything else, but continued to smile and beckon City Lord Lin to sit down in the house, and at the same time poured a bowl of water for the other party with his own hands.

He offered the water with the reason of the juniors, and said with a smile: "The juniors don't have any tea here, and there is nothing to entertain, so I will use this bowl of water to express my gratitude, and thank the city lord for taking care of the room for us." Although we didn't move in, we still appreciate this heart, and I hope that the seniors will not blame the juniors for their poor work. ”

Although the two sides are now friends and foes, since they have not yet taken the step to tear their faces, Zuo Feng is naturally willing to do enough work. Especially to say a few innocuous words here, there is no burden on Zuo Feng.

City Lord Lin's eyes narrowed, looking at the water in his hand, he couldn't help but look at Zuo Feng again, and after a little hesitation, he picked up the bowl and took a big sip. If you look at it purely from his face, it seems that the bowl is not water but Jiu, not even wine, but more like a night of poison.

Of course, Zuo Feng knew in his heart that the old man who had lost his wife and his troops in the battle last night could be said to have lost his wife and his soldiers. A third of the men sent over were killed by themselves, and the rest of them didn't know if they all left alive, at least as far as Zuo Feng knew, a few of them were not lightly injured.

In addition, even the city guards have been affected, although Zuo Feng is still unclear about these specific situations, but thinking about it will make him feel refreshed in his heart. Some people are happy, and some people will naturally be depressed, and the old man surnamed Lin on the other side is the most depressed one, but he has to pretend to be indifferent in the face of Zuo Feng, as if nothing has anything to do with him.

What's more important is that this Lin City Lord now has to pretend to be an adult, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou doesn't like to live in the upper room arranged by me, of course, he also has the right to choose, how can this old man blame him more." ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Actually, I am also an old friend with Mayor Gao of Balshan Town, and the matter of Balshan Town is just a misunderstanding. This time I prepared a room for you, and I also hope to be a peacemaker, so that you and the mayor can get rid of the past suspicions. ”

Seeing that the other party was still holding on at this time, Zuo Feng felt a little unbearable in his heart, and naturally there would be no change on the surface. Pretending to be stupid, he said: "Where did there be any misunderstanding, it's just that there were a little twists and turns in the selection, how can I blame the mayor of the town for such a thing, and please rest assured that the city lord of Lin is at ease." ”

City Lord Lin nodded heavily, and at this time he lowered his head to prevent Zuo Feng from seeing the change in his expression. In his heart, he secretly cursed, a small twist and turn, this little twist and turn in your mouth has almost looted Bald Mountain Town, and all valuable objects are used as compensation for gambling funds for you to loot out.

He said to himself in his heart, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think of his loss last night, and this old man, who was usually calm, couldn't help but tremble.

If he hadn't had too many scruples, I'm afraid he would have slapped the young man in front of him to death with one palm now, where would he talk nonsense with him here.

Sighing secretly in his heart, City Lord Lin put on a smiling face again, and said slowly: "I came here this time to see, Shen Gongzi rested well last night, this Far Mountain Inn is also one of the best in my Bald Mountain City, I didn't expect that Gongzi would find this place the first time he came." ”

These words obviously meant Zuo Feng's words, but Zuo Feng replied without hesitation: "That good brother of mine has been here a few times, so he knows a little about this place. He recommended this Far Mountain Inn like me, I originally thought the environment was pretty good, but I didn't sleep well last night, shouting and killing outside to catch bandits, and I didn't have much rest all night. ”

The corners of Lin City Lord's eyes twitched slightly, and Zuo Feng's words seemed to be unintentional, but they just touched his tense nerves. However, City Lord Lin's face only changed slightly, and he immediately regained his calm.
