Chapter thirteen The storm of returning to the village
Zuo Feng gently raised his slightly handsome face, and everywhere he looked around, he no longer looked like before.
Whether it was the flowers, plants, trees nearby, or the mountains in the distance, they were all so brightly colored. This was a feeling he had never had before.
It was as if all the scenery around him could be distinguished by subtle differences in his eyes. He lifted his nose and smelled it gently. Amidst the strong blood, he could actually distinguish the subtle differences in smells between different flowers and plants.
His ears twitched slowly for a few times, and the sounds of insects and birds around him, as well as the subtle sounds of wild beasts moving about more than ten feet away, were clearly reflected in his ears.
At this time, Zuo Feng felt that his facial features seemed to have evolved. His eyes, nose, ears and even his skin were like a mirror, clearly reflecting all the subtle changes around him in his heart.
Zuo Feng felt all these changes in himself, and was both surprised and excited. He had never felt that the world was so colorful, and he had never realized that the world he was in was so mysterious and moving.
"You guys, I'm happy to know that you have achieved a breakthrough in cultivation, but don't make such a coquettish expression to irritate us both."
After listening to Zuo Hou's words, Shen Die couldn't help but frown slightly, obviously not liking Zuo Hou putting the two of them together.
"It must have taken me a long time to achieve this breakthrough."
Zuo Feng chuckled. He had long been accustomed to this good brother who spoke openly.
"Isn't that right? It actually took you more than half an hour to break through the cultivation level this time. I heard that it usually only takes such a long time to break through from the strong body stage to the bone refining stage."
Zuo Feng was shocked, 'It seems that my mysterious technique is very special, but the two of them don't have enough experience and cultivation to understand the mystery.'
But I have already made up my mind to try not to break through in cultivation in front of others in the future.
I secretly tried to run the mysterious "unnamed skill", and sure enough, another acupoint was opened during the operation of the skill.
By observing the movement of energy in the chest bulge, he already knew that this mysterious technique ran through three different meridians. It coincided with the three levels of body strengthening, bone refining and tendon tempering in the body refining technique.
Although I don’t know what will happen if I continue to practice, looking at the changes in myself just after waking up, I can already confirm that this is definitely a rare skill in the world.
"I almost forgot to ask, how did you two get here?"
Chen Die suddenly remembered something and asked.
Zuo Feng and Zuo Hou looked at each other. The former didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, Zuo Feng spoke up.
"We have a hunting team that lost contact the day before yesterday. We are all sent out to investigate. After hearing what happened to your Shenjia Village, I'm afraid they..."
Zuo Feng hadn't finished what he said, but Shen Die had already understood what he meant. Zuo Feng's expression was a little gloomy. Teng Li's group might have encountered bandits who were about to attack Shenjia Village. Maybe it was what the woman said.
"Those rats in the Fengtian Dynasty", no matter who they are, will probably be in trouble.
"If you have nowhere to go, why not follow us back to Zuojia Village first."
Zuo Feng saw Chen Die's conflicting mood and said softly. When Zuo Feng said this, Chen Die was stunned for a moment, then forced out a smile and said.
"I really don't have anywhere to go. I hope I won't cause you any trouble."
"Wherever there will be trouble, our two villages have always had a very good relationship. Now that you are in trouble, we should help you."
Shen Die nodded gratefully and thanked her. For the first time, she had some affection for this boy who looked funny but had a fiery heart.
"Do you need a rest? You must be quite tired from the battle just now."
"I asked you, you lunatic, why are you so concerned about beautiful women? Don't forget, it took you half an hour to break through the cultivation level just now."
After listening to Zuo Hou's words, Zuo Feng smiled awkwardly, and a touch of red appeared on his fair face. The fact that he cared so much about Shen Die in front of him was indeed inconsistent with his past style. Thinking about this, he couldn't help but glance at Shen Die. , seeing Shen Die's face flushed and lowering her head silently.
"Smelly monkey, you are the only one who talks nonsense. Let's leave now. We should be able to get back to the village before dark."
The three of them walked in silence, and everyone along the way had a tacit understanding of keeping silent. Shen Die felt sad because his family was destroyed, and Zuo Feng and Zuo Hou were worried about the situation in the village, so they were no longer in the mood to gossip. The few jokes they made were just to lighten their depressed mood.
One advantage of this kind of hurrying is that it improves the efficiency of the operation. Several people only stopped once in the middle, took a short rest and ate dry food, and then continued non-stop to Zuojia Village. Fortunately, Zuo Feng's senses are sensitive, and he often encounters They will always stay away from wild beasts.
It was much faster than Zuo Feng expected, and when a few people arrived at the village, the sun was still slanting in the western sky.
Seeing the outline of the village from a distance, Zuo Feng and Zuo Hou didn't say anything, but they felt relieved at the same time. They were actually very scared. When they returned to the village, what they saw was a ruined building. Scene. Fortunately, at a glance, the village still stands peacefully surrounded by mountains.
When Zuo Hou could vaguely see the figures on the city wall, Zuo Feng could already clearly see the faces of those on the city wall. He knew that these were the benefits of his mysterious skills.
His eyes swept across the city wall, and a figure came into view, which made Zuo Feng frown suddenly, because that figure belonged to Zuo Peng who had deceived him into the Dongshan Canyon.
'This guy actually joined the team guarding the city wall. I'm afraid this is also to facilitate contact with the outside world.'
With Zuo Feng thinking like this, he became more certain about the identity of Zuo Peng's spy. Several people spread out their movements and reached the outside of the village more than ten feet away with little effort.
When Zuo Peng saw clearly that Zuo Feng was among the people who came, his face turned extremely ugly in an instant. His rather handsome face was as long as a bitter gourd. Obviously, he did not expect Zuo Feng to be alive. return.
Zuo Peng on the city wall was just stunned for a moment, and then quickly got off the city wall without knowing where to go, but Zuo Feng had already seen all this, and he already had a very bad premonition in his heart.
"It's that bastard Zuo Peng. Seeing how guilty he is, I must reveal his true face in front of the villagers."
"Don't act rashly. Since we have returned to the village safely, there is no need to rush to expose him. I think he is just a small character. There must be a bigger person behind him."
"You mean, Great Elder Zuo Lie."
Zuo Hou looked at Zuo Feng beside him with a shocked face, but Zuo Feng had a frosty face and did not answer his words, but Shen Die could not understand what they were talking about at all.
Based on Zuo Peng or Zuo Cheng's cultivation, it would have been impossible for them to sneak attack him by the pool back then, and he also vaguely remembered that the figure of the man in black was definitely an adult.
'I hope my guess is wrong. If the great elder is an internal agent of the bandits, then how can there be any secrets in Zuojia Village?'
Although Zuo Feng had already made the same guess as Zuo Hou, he still hoped that his guess was wrong. However, no matter what, he must find out who the spies were when he returned to the village this time, and he would kill them all. Pull out whatever is left behind.
Zuo Feng and the others entered the village smoothly without encountering any obstruction. Zuo Feng originally thought that Zuo Cheng would make things difficult for him and others when they entered the village, but the result was beyond his expectation.
But just when Zuo Feng was relieved, a very discordant voice sounded.
"Zuo Feng, where have you been? Several surrounding villages have been poisoned by bandits from Jinyan Mountain. You are still wandering out of the village in such a big way. Are you a spy of the bandits?"
The three of them followed the voice and saw that the speaker looked somewhat similar to Zuo Peng, but his waxy face and faint smell of medicine made it known that he was still recovering from a serious illness.
"Zuo Cheng, why, your injury is healed."
The person speaking was none other than Zuo Cheng, who had been seriously injured by Zuo Feng in the competition. It seemed that Zuo Peng came to him in a hurry to leave. When he saw it was him, Zuo Feng's words were even less polite.
Hearing Zuo Feng's words, Zuo Cheng's face became a little uglier. He wondered if it might have affected his injury. He glared at Zuo Feng coldly, his eyes swept over Zuo Hou's body, and finally stopped at Zuo Hou, who was dressed in white. On Shen Die.
When he saw Shen Die, he was obviously startled, with a hint of lewd smile in his eyes, but then he spoke righteously.
"You haven't seen each other for the past few days, and now you have brought back such a woman of unknown origin. You must give the village a reasonable explanation. Now follow me to the great elder to accept his questioning."
Zuo Feng raised his hand to stop Zuo Hou who was about to speak. At the same time, he turned his eyes to Shen Die and nodded slightly to tell her not to worry. Then he turned back and said coldly.
"Even if I want to be questioned, it will be the village chief who comes to inquire. Where is the elder's turn?"
When Zuo Cheng heard him mention the village chief, his eyes flickered slightly. He was about to say something more, but there were dense footsteps behind him. When Zuo Cheng heard the footsteps, a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
Only then did Zuo Feng realize that this guy didn't really want to take him and others to see the great elder, but was just delaying time.
Thinking about it carefully, 'The fact that I and others returned safely means that their conspiracy may have been exposed. If that were the case, of course I would not go with him to see the great elder'.
Thinking of this, Zuo Feng couldn't help but secretly blame himself for not thinking things through enough. Looking in the direction of the footsteps, he saw a group of teenagers coming towards him menacingly.
"Zuo Feng, you disobeyed the orders of the Young Regiment and left the village without permission. I will punish you today as the leader of the Young Regiment."
Listening to this harsh sound, Zuo Feng also saw the figure walking in the center of the crowd, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. The person who spoke was none other than Fujikata.
‘This guy really can’t stand up to the wall. His eldest brother has been in doubt about his life and death, and now he is being used as a tool. The village is in such a crisis, and he still has time to fight among himself.’
Zuo Feng couldn't help but think with anger rising.
