Chapter 261: Trouble
Juyun Inn occupies a more prosperous area in Luan City, but when Zuo Feng came to the door, he could hardly see anyone. Seeing such a deserted appearance, Zuo Feng didn't care at all, and after Kang Zhen's explanation, he already knew that this inn was owned by the Kang family.
Walking slowly up the steps and just stepping into the door with one foot, Zuo Feng saw a back that made him disgusted, this person Zuo Feng already knew the identity of the other party as long as he saw his back, the puppet Lingmen Shao Sect Master Puppet Xiang, one of the people Zuo Feng didn't want to meet in Luan City.
Zuo Feng's footsteps paused slightly, and the puppet of the puppet spirit sect young master puppet Xiang also immediately had a sense, and gently turned his face to look at the door. When Puppet Xiang saw that the person who came was Zuo Feng, the expression on his face was slightly cold, but then his gaze fell on Zuo Feng's hand, and he smiled slightly and said, "Who am I, it turns out that Master Shen is famous for his wine-making skills." ”
Although Zuo Feng was silent on the surface, his heart sank slightly. He had already seen that the cultivation of this puppet was the sixth level of the bone refining period, and such cultivation was completely out of Zuo Feng's eyes, but the person behind the puppet Zuo Feng was a little jealous, two martial artists in the early stage of tempering, plus an old man who he couldn't see through the cultivation.
This old man Zuo Feng had also seen it, and he had been sitting next to the puppet during the auction before, and he seemed to be the highest cultivator in the group of puppet spirits. This old man is the puppet Rong, the old man who is called "Rong Lao" in the mouth of the puppet, and it is precisely because of this old man that the master of the puppet spirit gate is relieved to let the puppet lead the team to Luan City.
Zuo Feng's gaze swept over the people on the other side one by one, and his gaze stayed on the puppet for the shortest time. It's a habit of his, and the more it makes him feel dangerous, the less he'll pay special attention. But Zuo Feng was actually secretly keeping an eye on the changes in the old man, but he relied on his extremely keen senses.
"It turned out to be the eldest son of the Puppet Spirit Gate, I didn't expect to meet you here by such a coincidence. ”
At this time, Kang Zhen, who was sitting opposite the puppet, had already stood up, but the smile on his face was not like others, it was an extremely sincere smile, and it gave Zuo Feng a sense of relief.
Zuo Feng was a little puzzled when he saw this, but he didn't want to ask much in front of the other party. It is conceivable that these people must have been embarrassed by Kang Zhen before he came, but Zuo Feng didn't know how his arrival would help him.
"It turned out to be Shen Feng's little brother, I had been thinking about you before, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself, which really flattered me. ”
Although Zuo Feng was puzzled, he was a little overly enthusiastic about Kang Zhen, so he had to smile and said, "I also came to see Uncle Kang, here is a gift from a senior for me to send to you by the way." ”
Kang Zhen was a little stunned, and it was only at this time that he noticed what Zuo Feng was carrying, but he was also a fine person and immediately understood, and said with some excitement: "That's the case, then I must thank my seniors, and I hope that Shen Feng Xiaoyou will help convey my thanks." I still have a little matter on my side, so Shen Feng Xiaoyou can go upstairs and wait for me first. ”
Zuo Feng nodded slowly, he hadn't thought of anything before, but when the puppet paid attention to the things in his hand, he immediately felt that something was wrong, so in a hurry, he suddenly remembered to move Yao Xun out. It was at this time that Zuo Feng finally figured out why Kang Zhen was so happy to see him, because the situation in front of them made both of them think of the same person at the same time, Yao Xun.
Zuo Feng didn't know if Yao Xun at this time would sneeze there for no reason, but the two of them did have a tacit understanding, and you led your questions to Yao Xun without saying a word.
The puppet Xiang listened and watched the answer between the two coldly, although he thought to himself in his heart, but he didn't say much else. But at this time, when he saw Zuo Feng swaggering upstairs, he couldn't sit still anymore, and said with a smile.
"Master Shen, please stay, why are you in a hurry to leave as soon as you see me, is it because my puppet is so unwelcome?" The puppet Xiang's words were meant to be sarcastic about Zuo Feng, but after Zuo Feng listened, he paused and turned his head to cast an inquiring look at the puppet.
Zuo Feng was so silent, but seemed to acquiesce to what the puppet said before, which made the puppet's face instantly become ugly. But after hesitating for a moment, he still suppressed the fire in his heart and continued with a smile.
"What Master Shen is holding in his hand is not the 'forget worries and get drunk' that the people of Luancheng are talking about, you must know that I have been longing for this wine for a long time, can't I let my puppet Xiang also taste it, and our puppet Lingmen will naturally not drink your wine in vain." ”
Regarding what the puppet said, Zuo Feng had already rolled his eyes several times in his heart. The notorious top wind of the puppet spirit gate can float from here to Yancheng, this puppet is a famous hooligan of the Luancheng generation, what he said "will not taste in vain" Zuo Feng believes that it is more true to hear it on the contrary.
But these words can only be thought of in the heart, but they must not be said to the face. Zuo Feng had already thought of how to deal with it, if the puppet made such a request as soon as he entered the house, Zuo Feng might be unable to think of a way for a while, and it was very likely that he would be blackmailed by the other party for a few bottles.
Now Zuo Feng has been in the house for a while, and he has also talked with Kang Zhen. Although they didn't say much, both of them were very smart, and they had already judged a rough idea from each other's eyes, tone, demeanor and other information, and now Zuo Feng had guessed that the puppet would have such an unreasonable request.
Showing an embarrassed expression, Zuo Feng said slowly: "The puppet eldest prince has a request, and it is said that I must also meet the eldest prince." But unfortunately, I'm just an errand runner, and this wine doesn't belong to me, so I don't say it doesn't count at all. ”
When he heard Zuo Feng's first words, the corners of the puppet's mouth were already grinning, but when he heard the latter words, his face immediately turned cold. Puppet Xiang is not an ordinary wine bag rice bag, after all, he is also the future successor of the puppet spirit sect, after a little stunned, he showed a sinister smile, and then turned his head to Kang Zhen's side.
Sneered and said: "I almost forgot what Master Shen said before, this thing was given to you at the time, since this is the case, I want to see if Grand Prince Kang can reward my brother thin noodles, or give our puppet Lingmen a face." ”
The puppet's face was still ugly before, because he didn't dare to really fall out with the seniors in Zuo Fengkou in Luancheng. These people didn't see the depth of Yao Xun's cultivation, but they didn't completely take Yao Xun in their eyes. However, they knew a thing or two about Yaoxun's friendship with the city lord, so although the puppet was arrogant, he didn't dare to snatch it from Zuo Feng.
Now that he turned the finger, he pointed at Kang Zhen, but Kang Zhen was a little caught off guard by the puppet. But Kang Zhen is a shrewd person after all, although he is a little empty in his heart, he only has some embarrassment on his face, and he didn't look at Zuo Feng at this time, because he knew that eye contact at this time would definitely attract the vigilance of the puppet.
Zuo Feng continued to speak unhurriedly, and said to the puppet: "I think the puppet son may have misunderstood, this wine is not for Uncle Kang. ”
The puppet narrowed his eyes, looked at the left wind again, and said in a somewhat unkind tone: "Misunderstanding, I heard you say it with my own ears just now." ”
Zuo Feng said in a good time: "The senior who ordered me to come over to deliver the wine, he actually has some private transactions with Uncle Kang. Uncle Kang's family promised to refine a pill for that senior, and the deposit paid in advance was these six bottles of 'Forget Worries and Drunks'. ”
"Oh, that's it!"
The puppet looked at Zuo Feng coldly, then turned his head to look at Kang Zhen again, and then said coldly. Although this was said to Zuo Feng, his eyes were fixed on Kang Zhen at this time, obviously he wanted to hear how Kang Zhen answered.
Knowing that Puppet Xiang did not fully believe what Zuo Feng said, Kang Zhen knew that if he did not give a satisfactory explanation at this time, he was afraid that Zuo Feng would also be taken off in troubled waters. So he hurriedly rubbed his hands and said, "Actually, the old-timer and I agreed in private, and these six bottles of wine were also finalized at that time. You also know that our Kang family has always said the same, so I have to hand over this deposit to the family, and this time I can only disappoint the puppet son. ”
Kang Zhen and Zuo Feng sang and harmonized, but when they had no ventilation before, they tacitly came up with such a set of rhetoric. Although Puppet Xiang didn't fully believe what Kang Zhen and Zuo Feng said, he couldn't think of any good way to debunk the lies of the two now.
The most important thing is that he didn't dare to alarm Yao Xun, which was the only way to know the truth of what the two said, but because of the relationship between Yao Xun and the city lord, he could only put down this matter for the time being.
The puppet rolled his eyes, but he spoke again: "Since Gongzi Kang refuses to let me taste this fine wine, then you must not refrain from my other request, otherwise I think my father will also be extremely displeased." ”
Zuo Feng didn't know what "requirements" the puppet said, and naturally he didn't know what he could do to help Kang Zhen break the siege.
Kang Zhen lowered his head a little bitterly and sighed, but then he quickly raised his head and looked at the puppet, Zuo Feng was extremely keen, and saw that Kang Zhen had thought of a solution the moment he raised his head.
Sure enough, Kang Zhen opened his mouth and said, "Our family agreed to help that senior refine the pill, so the two elders in the family have to act at the same time. And the quality of that medicine pill is not low, so we can't spare the manpower and time to help the puppet boy for the time being. ”
Zuo Feng seemed to nod subconsciously, and said casually: "A Xuanpin mid-grade elixir, I'm afraid it's really not something that any medicine refining family can complete." ”
The puppet looked back in surprise, and said in disbelief: "Xuanpin Intermediate Rank!" He didn't notice it at this time, and a trace of surprise flashed on Kang Zhen's face, but this look only disappeared in an instant. When the puppet turned around, Kang Zhen had already regained his original exclamation.
