Chapter 384 Amber's Past

Zuo Feng seemed to have great difficulty speaking, as if he had used up all his strength.

However, Zuo Feng's eyes were always paying attention to the changes of the two young men in front of him. Although he could quickly know which one was Li Yuan from Su Yan's mouth, Zuo Feng believed more in what he saw with his own eyes, and he also wanted to test the depth of Li Yuan.

At this time, there were two men and one woman standing in front of Zuo Feng. The two men were about 25 or 26 years old, and there was almost no big difference in their clothes. One of them had slightly loose hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked handsome. A long sword of good style was hung on his waist.

The other young man had his hair neatly tied into a bun. He was a little shorter than the average person and had a short gun on his back. The young man had an extremely ordinary appearance, and his eyes were small but very sharp, just like the tip of the gun exposed on his shoulder.

Zuo Feng had a little impression of these two people, but the impression was not too deep. However, this is more in line with the characteristics of people like Li Yuan. As a qualified spy, the first condition should be to be easily ignored. The less attention is paid, the more convenient it will be to act.

Zuo Feng remembered that there was this man with a gun on his back who followed Kang Qiao at the beginning. His strength was indeed not familiar, and he could be placed in the category of warriors in the muscle-hardening period.

Zuo Feng's words really surprised the two people, and even Su Yan pretended to be surprised at this time. It must be said that Su Yan is really good at this. Even when no one pays attention to her, she still plays very well, and is much more experienced than Li Yuan.

Because Zuo Feng has now seen that the handsome young man with a long sword hanging from his waist is 90% the man called Li Yuan.

When Zuo Feng said that he would stay for a while and needed a few of them to stay with him, the two young men were stunned for a moment at the same time. But then the two of them showed different reactions at the same time. The man with a short gun on his back looked back at Su Yan, and then turned his head to look at the old man named Amber.

However, the handsome young man looked at Amber first, and looked at Amber up and down for a long time before looking back at Suyan.

Zuo Feng could explain this detail as that the young man with the pistol had made arrangements before, and asked him to obey Suyan's arrangements in everything, so when he saw that Suyan did not express anything, he did not express anything at the right time.

The handsome young man looked at Amber first, and he first wanted to confirm whether Amber had any problems. This suspicion of Zuo Feng from the bottom of his heart just showed that he had always had such an idea in his heart. I believe that the third elder must have reminded him to pay attention to the condition of Zuo Feng's injuries.

Zuo Feng just saw all these, and while laughing in his heart, he did not say anything, but appropriately threw the right to speak to Suyan. Suyan has the highest status in the Kang family here, and Zuo Feng's words just now cannot be taken as accurate, but Suyan's words will be equivalent to Kang Zhen's meaning.

Su Yan frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Since Mr. Shen's injury is so serious, staying here temporarily is the only choice now. I will tell the young master, and you two will stay here with Zuo Feng for the time being.

If Mr. Shen's injury improves tomorrow, then we can set off together to return to the family. If we really have to stay for a few days for treatment, let's see if the young master and his friends can stay in Xinjun City for a few days."

After saying this, Su Yan turned and walked outside. The two young men watched Su Yan leave, but they didn't say anything from beginning to end. They were also quite cold to Zuo Feng and the others, but Amber was very enthusiastic and invited them to rest in the guest room at the back.

Zuo Feng had to pretend to be seriously injured and dying at this time, and didn't pay any attention to the two people who left. However, Zuo Feng's ears always followed the two people to the back. It is believed that it was Kang Zhen's idea to arrange the two people together, so that it would be more convenient to monitor Li Yuan.

Lying on the cold bed, Zuo Feng was not sleepy at all. He had slept for a long time in the cabin before. Now Zuo Feng has a strong interest in this new county city. The main source of this interest is the beast pattern that has not yet shown any signs.

The main purpose of coming to the Xuanwu Empire is naturally to get the antidote for the soul-transforming liquid, but Zuo Feng also needs to improve his cultivation during this period. This way, he can not only deal with all emergencies, but also when he returns to Ye Lin again, it is time for him to personally deal with Lin Lang.

Not long after, Amber returned to the house. Zuo Feng did not act pretentiously in front of the old man, and sat up from the bed board. After looking the old man up and down for a while, he said, "Uncle An is a pharmacist, right?"

The old man named Lu Xiang'an was slightly stunned and said, "You little guy is really a ghost as Kang Zhen said. We have only met for such a short time, how could you guess that I am a pharmacist?"

Zuo Feng felt that there was a kind of temperament in Uncle An, which was somewhat similar to Zhuang Yu, making Zuo Feng feel very kind, so he said without hiding it, "Uncle An, you have a special smell when you use the flame crystal to mix medicine. Although the smell is very light, you can smell it clearly when you are close to me."

After An was stunned again, he said seriously, "My friend is really amazing. I refined some liquid medicine half a month ago. I didn't expect that you can smell it after so long. But remember not to mention it in front of others, it will only hurt me."

Seeing Zuo Feng's expression of "Why?", Amber hesitated and then explained: "Young Master Kang Zhen told me that there is no need to hide anything from you, and strictly speaking, you are not I am a member of the Kang family, so it doesn’t hurt to tell you something.

In fact, my understanding of the Kang family is very deep, so deep that you can’t even imagine it, because I single-handedly raised the eldest young master Kang Zhen. "

This first sentence immediately caught Zuo Feng's attention. It was hard for him to imagine that the old man in front of him could be such an important figure in the Kang family. But a new question came, why did the old man leave the Kang family and come to live in this new county, and why he had to hide his knowledge of refining medicine from the outside world.

Amber continued: "Actually, I only served the master when I was young. Later, because I needed a trustworthy person to take care of the young master, I was sent to Kang Zhen, who was less than two years old at the time. Originally, I was always with him The scout, Master Kang, and my cultivation level was pretty good, so he took on the responsibility of protecting me.

However, I have been interested in refining medicine since I was a child, but the Kang family's medicine refining skills must never be revealed to people with other surnames. Master Kang was still very young at the time. When he was learning the art of alchemy, he later taught me some basic alchemy techniques. I also followed him out of curiosity.

However, the master found out about this matter in the end. If we follow the ancestral teachings of the Kang family, the heaviest punishment would be to kill me. But the master knew that I didn't want to steal the Kang family's alchemy skills, so he found another excuse to expel me from the family. This can be regarded as a kind of protection for me.

They said they were expelling me, but they actually secretly got me out. Later, the master paid for me to open this medicine shop here, and also taught me the method of acupuncture. I have been relying on this skill to make a living. "

This story sounded ordinary, but Zuo Feng saw that Kang Zhen was very much like his father, the kind of person who valued love and justice and did not stick to vulgar principles. From this, it seems that the current head of the Kang family should be able to support Kang Zhen to help him get the antidote. This is undoubtedly good news for Zuo Feng.

After Amber paused, he continued: "So don't worry, little friend, and the eldest young master has also told me that if you need my help in any way, just ask and I will fully cooperate with you. As long as it is for the eldest young master and The master of the house will serve you, old man, and I will definitely do it."

Zuo Feng was so smart. He understood from what Amber said that Kang Zhen didn't reveal much about this action. This is not because he doesn't trust Amber, but because he doesn't want Amber to be involved in this matter. Presumably, this is Kang Zhen's intention to protect Amber.

Zuo Feng understood this, and of course he agreed politely on the surface, but he knew that he could never take the old man out of the water.

After a slight hesitation, Zuo Feng changed the subject and asked with a smile: "Old man An knows how to acupuncture acupuncture points. I wonder if he also knows how to 'cut the pulse' with his fingers."

Zuo Feng also knew something about medicine. After all, he had followed Zhuang Yu for so long, and Zhuang Yu used this method to check Anya's condition.

The techniques of cutting pulses with fingers and needling acupuncture points have the same origin. When Zuo Feng heard Amber mention the method of needling acupuncture points, he naturally thought of this set of fingering techniques.

Amber was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Little friend, you think too highly of me, the old man. This method of acupuncture is just the most vulgar method of acupuncture to heal injuries and diseases. And 'Lian Zhi' "Qing Pulse" is related to the superb skill of "Silver Needle Crossing Acupoints". How could I learn such a miraculous skill?"

Hearing what Amber said, Zuo Feng couldn't help but sigh secretly. He was now very interested in that set of fingering techniques, and regretted why he didn't learn from Zhuang Yu in the first place.

Just listen to Amber continue to say: "The 'Finger Cutting Pulse' and 'Silver Needle Crossing Acupuncture Points' are one of the most superb skills of the Xuanwu Empire. I heard that only people in the empire with extremely good medical skills can use it. Outsiders can't use it." It’s rare to even see it.”

Zuo Feng was greatly surprised after hearing this. He never thought that this "pulse-cutting technique" could have such a big background. Moreover, he also vaguely guessed that Zhuang Yu might have used the method of crossing the acupoints with silver needles to delay the onset of Anya's poison.

Although Teng Xiaoyun once told Zuo Feng that Zhuang Yu was once from the Xuanwu Empire, Zuo Feng did not expect that Zhuang Yu also had such a terrifying background and had some connections with the highest level of the Xuanwu Empire.

I'm afraid I can only ask Zhuang Yu face to face when I have the opportunity to return to Ye Lin.
