Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 538: Corpse Puppet Problem
Zuo Feng and his two companions returned to the inn without any trouble. Compared with last night, the entire inn seemed to have become much quieter. However, this was all within reason. Such a big change happened on the first night Zuo Feng entered the inn. It was normal for many warriors to be attracted to investigate.
But after that, everything suddenly calmed down, as if nothing had happened before. This also made many people gradually lose interest in this matter, and leaving here was also a normal reaction.
Sometimes people are like this. When something happens, they will follow the trend and act in unison. Of course, everyone hopes to get a bargain. But when this trend passes, everyone will withdraw in unison, fearing that something bad will happen if they are left behind.
Zuo Feng was already accustomed to this. Looking at the empty lobby on the first floor of the inn, he found a seat and sat down casually. The inn's waiter was bored and saw Zuo Feng sitting on a table and greeting him, so he hurried out from behind the counter.
He was very familiar with Zuo Feng and Amber, the waiter, but the boy sitting with them was very unfamiliar. However, as a waiter, he naturally did not dare to ask any more questions. It was like there were two men and one woman before, but suddenly there were three men in the morning, and now there were four men. He could only mutter in his heart.
Zuo Feng ordered a few kinds of food casually. Amber and Duan Xia did not seem to be too picky about the food, and Zuo Feng did not make any other requests, just hoping that it could be served as soon as possible.
As a result, after Zuo Feng Empire sent a few silver coins, the waiter immediately left quickly and told the cook to prepare.
I don’t know if Duan Xia is a little hungry, or because he talked too much before, he became much quieter at this time. Amber didn’t like to chat with strangers, and he was even more reluctant to say a word when Duan Xia was around.
Zuo Feng looked around boredly and saw that there were only three tables of guests in the whole hall, including them. Just when Zuo Feng was about to retract his gaze, he suddenly saw a beautiful figure appear at the door. The woman was very tall and looked to be in her twenties.
From the outside, the woman can be regarded as beautiful and charming. Although she is not as beautiful as Duan Yueyao, she is definitely as beautiful as she is without makeup. Zuo Feng is not a pervert. He just glanced at her and immediately retracted his gaze.
It seems that Zuo Feng was just curious to see this woman, but for some reason, Zuo Feng felt very familiar with this girl who just appeared. Amber is the kind of person who is always vigilant. Of course, she also looked at the girl as soon as she appeared, but she saw that there was nothing special about this girl, so she retracted her gaze.
Duan Xia was here at this time. Although Zuo Feng was very concerned about this woman, he couldn't say much. Otherwise, this unrestrained Duan Xia might say something.
Although it was just a brief glance, Zuo Feng's observation was so sharp that he almost engraved the entire appearance of the woman who just appeared in his mind. He was sure that he had never seen this woman's face, but the other party could give him a very familiar feeling.
Zuo Feng thought hard for a long time but didn't come up with any clues. In the end, he could only helplessly put it aside temporarily.
The woman seemed to not care about everyone present, and found a corner to sit down. The waiter had come out from the back at this time, and saw a guest coming in, and hurried over.
"Miss, what would you like to eat, or do you plan to stay here for one night? We have a lot of rooms available today, and there are a few rooms on the top floor left."
The waiter wiped the already very clean table in front of him enthusiastically, and kept introducing the situation in the store.
The woman seemed to hesitate for a while, and then said: "I don't know if there are any rooms below. I'm not used to living too high."
The waiter was obviously stunned, and Zuo Feng's heart was also moved and then he listened carefully. Because Zuo Feng and the waiter had the same idea, this woman's dress was definitely not that of an ordinary family. Even if she was not a child of a noble family like Su Ya who regarded money as dirt, she was definitely not from a small family.
Such a woman would generally not be willing to live in a low-grade guest room where good and bad people mixed together, especially since this woman was alone, and her cultivation level seemed to be only in the middle stage of bone refining.
Although this kind of cultivation is not that powerful, it is not enough for her to have no fear.
After hesitating for a while, the waiter said, "There are empty rooms on the second and third floors. I wonder which floor the lady wants to live on. I will ask someone to prepare it for her."
The lady directly pointed out that she wanted to live on the second floor, and ordered two random dishes. The waiter responded and turned away. As he walked, he kept muttering.
Not long after, Zuo Feng's table of food was served. Naturally, the three of them would not be polite and each of them let go of their stomachs and ate heartily. Now it was noon. Zuo Feng originally wanted to take this amulet around in the afternoon. With Duan Xia by his side, he was not too worried about safety issues.
But for some reason, after the woman appeared, he didn't want to take any action anymore, just wanted to stay quietly in the inn.
When Zuo Feng and the other two had almost finished eating, the woman's food was served. Zuo Feng took a casual look and found that the woman ate very slowly, and it seemed that she didn't want to eat anything. This behavior made Zuo Feng even more suspicious. She was not hungry but ordered food. Sitting here made Zuo Feng feel as if she was monitoring him.
When thinking of this, Zuo Feng's heart could not help but move slightly, and suddenly thought that this woman might be sent by the enemy to monitor him. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was unlikely. Although the person who was monitoring him just now did not see clearly, he could feel that the other party's cultivation was at least close to the middle stage of tendon tempering.
But the cultivation of the woman in front of him was only the middle stage of bone refining. There was a full level difference between the two. Moreover, after the assassination this morning, although the enemy did not see Zuo Feng's true cultivation, he should also understand that sending such a person in the middle stage of bone refining to monitor him was a joke.
For a moment, Zuo Feng felt that he had entered a dead end. Originally, Zuo Feng thought that his intelligence was far beyond the ordinary people, but now he felt that he still lacked experience.
If I were Duan Yueyao now, I believe she would definitely consider more possibilities and then choose the most credible one from all these possibilities. But the possibilities I can think of are really pitiful, and these so-called possibilities can be completely overturned without too much thinking.
In fact, Zuo Feng didn't feel that he was really incompetent. In fact, the more adversity he encountered, the more he would be stimulated to think. And the more dangerous the environment around him, the more it would inspire his own fighting spirit. Zuo Feng is the kind of person who is more courageous and stronger when facing strong opponents.
When he faced the pursuit of the Yancheng gang, he not only successfully solved those people, but also made great progress in tracking and stealth. Later, in the confrontation with the bandits of Jinshan Mountain and the Yintuan of Fengtian Dynasty, Zuo Feng not only made great progress himself, but even buried an important team of the Yintuan on the outskirts of Tianping Mountains.
What Zuo Feng himself didn't realize was that he was not as smart as Duan Yueyao. Generally speaking, it was because he had too little experience, and his grasp of human relationships and human nature was not as thorough as the other party. But there are reasons for all this, because she was born in a great family, with innate conditions and acquired training, she naturally understands the ways of the world better than Zuo Feng.
But Zuo Feng was born in the mountains. Before he was thirteen, he had hardly seen what people outside looked like except those in the village.
He also learned to observe and judge, reason and make decisions in various things in less than two years, and was able to reach the level he is today. In fact, Zuo Feng's intelligence is not much worse than Duan Yueyao.
However, Zuo Feng is also free and easy. Since he can't figure it out, he won't deliberately go to extremes. He now chooses to stay in the inn, so that he can minimize the opportunities for the enemy to take advantage of, and to respond to changes with the same, which is also the best strategy now.
Do more and make more mistakes, do less and make fewer mistakes, and not doing anything is the wisest choice. He believes that although he has not figured out what's going on with this woman, if the enemy doesn't move, he has no way, but once the enemy moves, he will have the possibility of spying on everything.
After figuring this out, Zuo Feng leaned back in his chair leisurely, as if he had eaten a full meal and was ready to rest. Amber has been paying close attention to the changes of Zuo Feng. Just now, she saw Zuo Feng with a heavy face, but when she turned around, she found that he showed a look of relief.
Duan Xia ate the food on the table heartlessly. Perhaps among all the people present, he was the only one who ate the most happily. Seeing Zuo Feng finish eating, he swallowed the pile of food in his mouth and said, "You only eat so little, so the rest will be wasted. Oh, by the way, why doesn't your big friend eat? His appetite should be amazing, right?"
Zuo Feng's heart moved slightly, but he smiled and said, "He has been too fat recently. If he continues to be so fat, he will have problems fighting with others in the future. So he has eaten very little recently, only two meals a day."
Although he said this, Zuo Feng was thinking that the two siblings seemed to be deliberately reminding him. Duan Yueyao first told him that he had problems controlling the movements of this corpse puppet. Now his younger brother Duan Xia told him that this corpse puppet did not eat or drink, and if someone was interested, he would definitely notice some problems.
