Duan Yueyao stood at the bow of the ship, looking towards Zuo Feng with a faint smile on her face. When she saw Zuo Feng looking towards her, she couldn't help but nod slightly.
When they were in Tushan Town, Duan Yueyao came over specifically to remind a few people to be more careful about Cheng Tianhao. What happened later proved that this woman was indeed doing it for the good of a few people. Zuo Feng also clasped his fists with both hands and shook his head towards the bow of the ship.
Duan Yueyao from the office gave a gift.
Zuo Feng also sincerely expresses his gratitude to those who sincerely help him.
"Hmph, this woman is really haunted. She can't pretend to be polite."
These words came from Su Yan's mouth at this time, making Zuo Feng and Amber a little bit dumbfounded. The look of a little woman was clearly revealed. Zuo Feng didn't bother to pay attention to Su Yan's appearance, but Amber looked at Zuo Feng and then looked at her thoughtfully.
He looked bare-faced, but didn’t say much else.
The speed of the boat was much faster than walking. When they saw Duan Yueyao's boat docked on the shore from a distance, the three of them walked down the hill. From this, it can be inferred that Duan Yueyao's boat probably only set off at noon, but in the evening
We arrived at Tushan City in about 1 hour.
Zuo Feng now has a certain understanding of water transportation, and is no longer as curious and confused about traveling by boat as when he first came to the Xuanwu Empire.
From Tushan Town to Tushan City, we can walk down the river and get there in half a day even if the wind is not favorable. However, if we walk from the mountains instead, we will not only take a lot of unnecessary steps because we are not familiar with the terrain, but also all the time.
The time spent was almost a day and a night.
When the three of them dragged their tired bodies to the outside of Tushan City, the sun had slowly set, but fortunately, the three of them entered the city before the city gate closed.
The gate of Bald Mountain City is the same as what a few people saw from a distance. The city wall, which is less than three feet high, is in dilapidated condition. From the mottled marks on it, it is not difficult to find that it is not like this because of the attack, it is just the pure years.
Corrosion brought about by changes in the city walls.
It's a joke to try to stop Zuo Feng and the others with such a low city wall. However, the three of them are not here to cause trouble. Naturally, they still want Yi Xun to enter the city through regular channels. They all know that all cities, no matter how big or small, will be registered.
, they naturally don’t want to cause trouble everywhere.
After a busy day, the guard registered the three people and gave each of them a small copper ball. This small ball had vague patterns on it, and it seemed that it had been used for a long time.
When the guard registered the name "Chen Feng", he unconsciously raised his head and looked at it carefully, and said with some disbelief: "Are you the young man who was promoted in Tushan Town?"
Unexpectedly, he still had some reputation here. Zuo Feng said without any concealment: "Well, yes, I am Shen Feng who just participated in the Tushan Town competition. I don't know when the Tushan City competition will start."
The guard looked at Zuo Feng carefully again, with a look of surprise on his face. He hesitated and said: "Our Tushan City's competition will be held in two days, and someone from the city lord's palace should contact you in the next few days.
"
After hearing what was said later, Zuo Feng didn't say much, just nodded to express his clarity, and then walked through the city gate and headed into the city.
Suyan chased after her and looked around before saying, "Did you see anything wrong?"
Zuo Feng squinted his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something. Hearing Su Yan's question, he just nodded subconsciously.
Su Yan turned back and glanced at the guard at the city gate. At this time, the guard turned his head and stared at Zuo Feng and the other three people in the distance. Su Yan turned around, looked at Zuo Feng and said: "The city lord of Tushan City is the one with that surname.
Did Lin's guy return to Tushan City so quickly? Your news spread too quickly, as if someone deliberately did it."
Although there was no change in Zuo Feng's expression, she didn't miss a single word of what she said without makeup, but he was still thinking about another issue now.
'Cheng Tianhao's action yesterday was a complete failure, but will Cheng Tianhao accept this fact obediently? If he still doesn't give up, what crazy move will he make next?'
These thoughts emerged in Zuo Feng's mind, and I have to say that what he was considering was not completely impossible. Originally, Zuo Feng thought that since the few people had successfully arrived at Tushan City, the matter should be considered to have come to an end, but
After seeing the soldier just now, he immediately had a new idea.
The soldier guarding the city knew that there was nothing strange about him. At most, the old man surnamed Lin had returned to Tushan City as Xue Yan said. This actually did not prove anything else.
But if you think about it on a deeper level, even if you deliberately want to spread such news, I'm afraid it won't be possible so quickly. The soldier even knows that Shen Feng is a young man.
Cheng Tianhao comes from the Cheng family, and I and others do not know the strength of his hand, or in other words, we have only seen those who have appeared after finishing the work. The low-end combat power can be ignored. There are three warriors at the third level of the tempering stage, and the tempering stage
There are five warriors in the early stage of Jin, and their strength can be said to be very luxurious.
If you add that low-end combat power, it may not be impossible to deal with such a Tushan Town. Now that he has mobilized these people, does it mean that he may mobilize more people to deal with him.
Thinking of this, Zuo Feng had to be vigilant in his heart.
If it were just Cheng Tianhao, things might be simpler. After all, the three of them have now successfully entered Tushan City. If the three of them came to the city because they were too late to pass the city gate, then there might be trouble if they stayed outside the city, but entering
The city should be considered safe.
In fact, things are not so optimistic, because the relationship between City Lord Lin and Cheng Tianhao is very close. From some fragmentary information, it can be seen that Cheng Tianhao and others came to Tushan Town to participate in the competition at the invitation of City Lord Lin.
, and in the previous game, the old man surnamed Lin also obviously sided with Cheng Tianhao.
However, in the later stages of the competition, it became clear that Cheng Tianhao had no chance of winning the final spot, so the old man surnamed Lin turned to show a fair attitude.
Now I recall that when the last three people went to see Mayor Gao to ask for gambling funds, City Lord Lin would help Zuo Feng and say a few words from time to time, which greatly reduced the hostility of the three people at that time, including Zuo Feng.
Now imagine carefully, maybe City Lord Lin already knew about Cheng Tianhao's actions at that time, or he was secretly supporting Cheng Tianhao in doing this. That's why he deliberately wanted to stabilize a few people, and also hoped that they could reconcile with Gao Tianhao as soon as possible.
The mayor finished cleaning up the accounts and left Tushan Town.
Putting all this information together in his mind, Zuo Feng felt that things might not get better, but would become more difficult. Zuo Feng didn't take this Tushan City seriously at first, but now it seems that he should still be in a
In danger.
"Suyan, is there a contact point for the Kang family here? Didn't you say that there is a contact point for the Kang family in every city in Linshan County?"
Zuo Feng suddenly spoke. It could be seen from his tone that Zuo Feng was already a little anxious.
I understand Zuo Feng's character and know that Zuo Feng wouldn't be like this if it wasn't really an emergency.
He said without hesitation: "The Kang family only has capture points in some big cities. This Tushan City is actually very different from ordinary cities, so you can't find the Kang family's contact point here."
Zuo Feng, whose face gradually darkened, spoke again: "So, if you want to contact the Kang family, where is the nearest place from here and how far is it?"
This time, before Suyan could speak, Amber answered first: "The nearest big city from here is Jicheng. It's about a day's journey eastward from here. If we have a group of fast horses, we should be able to reach it in a little more than half a day."
Arriving soon."
After listening to this, the expression on Zuo Feng's face did not improve much. Instead, it became uglier. In his impression, the Xuanwu Empire was a relatively prosperous existence. There should be no distance between towns and cities.
It was too far away, but I didn't expect Linshan County to be so vast, completely beyond Zuo Feng's expectation.
Seemingly seeing what Zuo Feng was thinking, Suyan said: "Linshan County is the largest county in Xuanwu, and because the most famous elixir mountain range exists here, the distance between the cities here is very small.
A little further apart.”
Seeing Zuo Feng nodded with a depressed expression, Su Yan continued: "But there should be other ways in this Tushan City, but I'm not very sure."
Suyan's words immediately cheered up Zuo Feng, and he immediately said excitedly: "If you have any ideas, please tell me."
Smiling slightly, Suyan said: "I can contact the Kang family through the contact point here, but the time it takes is not much faster than finding someone to go to Jicheng."
Suyan's words made Zuo Feng even more confused. He had obviously been able to contact him, so why would it be as troublesome as sending someone to Jicheng? Wouldn't it be a bit contradictory to say so?
Of course, Zuo Feng would not be so unclear without makeup. Only insiders of aristocratic families like her and Amber would know the situation here, so Zuo Feng wouldn't laugh at her if she didn't understand.
After sorting out her thoughts for a while, Suyan continued: "The Kang family will not set up a contact point in a small town like this, and neither will our Su family, because it is a waste of resources. But here is the inner court of the Xuanwu Empire
The driver’s confidential station is here, and I can use the confidential station here to send out information.”
As she spoke, Suyan raised her hand and pointed forward. The three of them had been talking and walking before. At this moment, Zuo Feng and Amber followed Suyan's gaze and looked towards a dilapidated shop in the distance.
If Suyan hadn't pointed it out specifically, this dilapidated shop that seemed to be about to collapse would be such an important place. Who would have thought that a confidential station of the empire would look like this.
