Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 1832: No flaws revealed
Zuo Feng pretended to have just woken up, shook his head and barely supported his body, and slowly sat up.
After rubbing his eyes, he suddenly "discovered" that the shopkeeper was beside him. Zuo Feng immediately turned over to greet him, and then looked around as if to identify where he was.
When he saw Shu Suo standing not far away, Zuo Feng immediately said angrily: "Please ask the shopkeeper to make the decision for me, brother, Shu Suo poisoned me, and I was poisoned by him."
Although Zuo Feng's performance was a little artificial, it was very normal when he thought about it carefully, which was exactly the performance of a wronged person.
"Third brother, I still use this name now because the shopkeeper showed mercy and gave you a chance to confess. If you still want to help yourself, I advise you to tell the truth, and the shopkeeper will naturally save your life."
Shu Suo looked up at Zuo Feng, his eyes slightly narrowed, with an expression that he had won Zuo Feng.
On the surface, Zuo Feng seemed to be unaware of the situation, but he had never lost consciousness. Not only did he hear all the previous conversations, but he had also been thinking about solutions and ways to gain trust.
Since he had infiltrated the Shu family, he had experienced several tests. Whether it was Shu Suo in front of him, Shu Kun, or the big shopkeeper and Yanzhi, none of them really believed in him.
Amber, who had also infiltrated the enemy, had been lurking smoothly until now. Except for the initial test, he had not seen any trouble like himself at the moment.
Of course, Zuo Feng also knew that he had never been trusted, mainly because his performance was a bit special. Whether it was the progress and talent of cultivation, or the attainments in rune formations, he was much better than his peers, although this was the result of Zuo Feng's concealment.
Maybe in another occasion, Zuo Feng could calmly say "If you are not envied, you are mediocre", but the current situation is "If you are envied, you will have many troubles."
Shu Suo and Shu Kun could never really accept him, mainly because of the word "jealousy". They were worried that he would be able to climb above them one day, thus affecting their future development in the family.
The big shopkeeper and Yanzhi were different. They were full of doubts because of Zuo Feng's excellence. After all, even if the people of the Mu family were selfish and domineering, they would not let such a good talent go without using and cultivating him.
Zuo Feng knew all this in his heart, but on the one hand, he had not found a suitable opportunity to clear himself of suspicion. On the other hand, he hoped to keep a low profile for the time being, so that at least some people's attention could be reduced.
But now it seems that it is difficult to keep a low profile. Although the crisis is imminent, the great opportunity to clear suspicion is right in front of him. Zuo Feng knows that he must make good use of it this time.
With a plan in mind, Zuo Feng looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "I don't know what the shopkeeper wants to know and what he wants me to say. I proposed this action, but I am willing to take the risk to go to Zui Xiang Lou for the sake of the Shu family, not the Mu family. Please believe me, shopkeeper."
"Hmph, I believe you!" Shu Suo snorted disdainfully and said with a sneer.
But as soon as Shu Suo opened his mouth, he saw the shopkeeper looking at him coldly, and he quickly swallowed the rest of his words.
Zuo Feng did not seem to notice the eye contact between the shopkeeper and Shu Suo, and said to himself, "Please believe me, shopkeeper, my heart for the Shu family is known to the world. The shopkeeper has been very kind to me, and giving me the name Shu Tianle is equivalent to giving me a life. I can only repay him with my life, so how could I have two hearts?"
Zuo Feng said these words in a sonorous and powerful way, which also showed his calmness in his heart. Shu Suo curled his lips secretly, but this time he did not dare to say anything more casually.
The shopkeeper's face did not change at all, but he said calmly: "Just now Shu Suo said that you have a problem. When you stepped into the middle of the flying corridor, there was a change. Tell me why you triggered the formation."
When this question came out, although Shu Suo did not show it, he secretly said "Okay" in his heart. The shopkeeper asked this question intentionally to guide him. If Zuo Feng's answer was slightly wrong, more flaws would be revealed later.
Maybe if it was someone else, they might panic at this time, but Zuo Feng already had an idea in his mind. The shopkeeper did not believe it at all when he talked to Shu Suo before, and this time he was just using deception to test himself.
Knowing this, Zuo Feng calmly raised his head and chest and said, "The one walking in front was the eldest brother Shu Suo, and the one walking behind was the fourth brother Shu Liao. I walked in the middle of them. No matter what I did, I could never avoid them.
And I had no idea about the formation beforehand, because when Shu Suo introduced the situation of Zui Xiang Lou, he did not mention the existence of the formation on the flying corridor at all."
Slowly turning his head to look at Shu Suo, seeing him pursing his lips and nodding, the shopkeeper's expression eased slightly. Zuo Feng knew that the shopkeeper's expression changed not because of Shu Suo, but because of himself.
When he looked at Zuo Feng again, he still had that calm face, but Zuo Feng could vaguely feel a change in his eyes, that was his expectation for himself, the expectation that there was nothing wrong with him.
He secretly said "good" in his heart, knowing that the shopkeeper had begun to trust him now. Although he only had a little idea, it was definitely a good start for him. Perhaps the other party values one's talent in formations and runes, but having a good impression is naturally better than having no good impression at all.
With a slight "cough", the shopkeeper continued to ask: "The magic rope led the opponent's strongest person away, why did you deliberately separate from the magic staff to escape?"
With almost no hesitation, Zuo Feng said immediately: "I don't know if the technician has made it clear. When we were escaping, we encountered someone intercepting us. At that time, there were interceptors in front of us and pursuers behind us. The situation was very bad. In order to create an opportunity, I let The technician escaped smoothly and faced most of the warriors on the opposite side."
These words were not mentioned when Shusuo was introduced. When the chief shopkeeper heard what Zuo Feng said, he immediately looked at the technician coldly. Glancing under the scorching gaze of the great shopkeeper, the technician hurriedly replied: "He, he, he is right, that was indeed the case at that time. Most of the strong men were stopped by him alone, and I had a chance to escape. "
At the same time as he let out a cold "hum", the big shopkeeper glared at Shusuo fiercely, his dissatisfaction with him was already obvious. Seeing this scene, Shusuo knew that he could never remain silent any longer, otherwise the "third brother" would be fine and he would be disgusted by the big shopkeeper.
Thinking of this, Shu Suo hurriedly said: "The big shopkeeper didn't know something. It was just doubtful that he escaped separately at the time, but later he chose to go in the direction of Zuixiang Tower. This may have made him a suspect. "
"Um?"
The big shopkeeper turned to Zuo Feng in confusion. Although he had already believed what Zuo Feng said before, his face suddenly turned cold and he said firmly: "What do you have to say?"
Shusuo's words really surprised Zuo Feng, because he didn't expect that the other party actually noticed the direction in which he was escaping, and judged that it was towards Zuixiang Tower. Logically speaking, you can escape in any direction, but choosing the direction of Zuixiang Tower is the most questionable.
Facing the aggressive gaze of the big shopkeeper, Zuo Feng's heart beat wildly, but he was not frightened and didn't know what to do, but he was happy because the opportunity came so quickly and so naturally.
Thinking of this, Zuo Feng immediately clasped his fists and said, "At that time, I noticed that so many people came out to arrest the three of us. I guessed that Zuixiang Tower must be empty, so I chose to take the risk and sneak in to find out what was inside Zuixiang Tower." situation within.”
Hearing what Zuo Feng said, not only Shu Suo and his staff were very surprised, but even the chief shopkeeper, who had always been calm and unfailingly calm, looked slightly gloomy.
"You are talking nonsense. You said you lurked in Zuixiang Tower. What proof do you have that you have been there? How do you prove that you have obtained information? Don't say that you have been in Zuixiang Tower for more than an hour!"
Shusuo obviously didn't believe it, and he was also the first to ask. However, this time the big shopkeeper didn't stop him, he just looked at Zuo Feng coldly, obviously having the same idea as Shusuo.
Clearly knowing that this was the best opportunity, Zuo Feng did not hesitate at all. He took a deep breath and said loudly: "Zuixiang House is divided into three houses, brothel house, gambling house and restaurant. The warriors headed by Captain Lin There are about four hundred people. Although they are more than us in number, they are much inferior in terms of cultivation. Most of them are in the muscle-tempering and Qi-sensing stages, and there should be no more than twenty people in the Qi-receiving stage. "
Narrowing his eyes slightly, the big shopkeeper uttered two words "continue" in a deep voice.
Zuo Feng continued without hesitation: "Captain Lin is the leader, followed by two deputy captains, one named Ren Huo and one named Yu Xiao. They mainly gather in brothels, restaurants and gambling houses. Less, they can prove it."
"Hmph, is that all?" Shusuo said disdainfully, because Rouge had actually obtained this information.
Ignoring the magic rope, Zuo Feng said calmly: "Among the four hundred warriors, about forty people are special. These people seem to be under guard and placed on the top floor of the brothel. These people's freedom is completely restricted." limit."
Zuo Feng seemed to be introducing the situation seriously, and he had been observing the subtle changes in the big shopkeeper. When he introduced the more than 40 people, the big shopkeeper's expression changed obviously.
Then the look he looked at Zuo Feng was very different from before. Only Zuo Feng could feel this change most clearly. But Zuo Feng did not stop, but continued to introduce.
"Captain Lin's warriors are now divided into four squads, patrolling the three buildings almost day and night. The alert has reached the highest level, and it will be extremely difficult to sneak in again.
However, I already have a general understanding of their personnel arrangements and the routes patrolled by the guards. I believe this is provable information. "
"Okay, okay, very good, you make me very satisfied!" The big shopkeeper showed obvious joy on his face and praised without hesitation.
Although Zuo Feng looked disappointed after being cleared of his grievances, he was relieved in his heart. He knew that this time there was no loophole in clearing the suspicion, and he could truly be accepted by the big shopkeeper.
