Chapter 506: City Lord Visits

When Zuo Feng withdrew from the perception of his own spiritual realm, the sky had begun to brighten.

After a busy night, the inn finally began to become a little quieter, especially the second floor, which seemed to exist in a forgotten corner.

Originally, this place had nothing to do with the accident that happened last night, and the people living on the second floor had no qualifications and courage to participate in the robbery last night. 　So after Amber and Zuo Feng returned late at night, the second floor of the inn became a place that was somewhat out of tune with the entire inn.

But at this time, a sound of footsteps pulled Zuo Feng back to his thoughts. If it was an ordinary footstep, it would not attract Zuo Feng's attention at all, but this sudden footsteps immediately aroused Zuo Feng's vigilance.

It was almost difficult to hear any sound from these footsteps. Even with Zuo Feng's sharp ears, it was difficult to distinguish that the subtle sound was the sound of footsteps landing. But even so, Zuo Feng was still sure that the footsteps in the corridor were the footsteps of a warrior, and the other party was still a mid-level master.

Moreover, Zuo Feng guessed that the other party should be a little uneasy, otherwise, with this person's cultivation and ability, it would be impossible for him to be noticed by him. I am afraid that the other party may not feel it even when he walks to the door.

The imperceptible sound slowly approached, and the other party did not seem to have any hesitation, but came straight to him. The footsteps only paused slightly when they reached the door of Amber, as if they hesitated there for a moment.

At this time, a tall and thin figure with white hair and beard had already appeared in his mind, and the three words "Lin City Lord" almost came out of his mouth, but Zuo Feng still suppressed this impulse. Such a high-profile shouting that he already knew the other party's arrival and guessed the other party's identity was very disadvantageous to him, and Zuo Feng finally gave up this impulse.

A moment later, Zuo Feng's door was knocked by someone. Zuo Feng deliberately paused for a while, and then slowly said: "Come in, the door is not bolted."

Zuo Feng deliberately spoke so casually, just to make the other party think that he regarded the trickster outside the house as a waiter of the inn.

The door was slowly pushed open. Zuo Feng deliberately did not turn his head to look, his eyes still fell on the courtyard of the inn outside the window. He said lightly: "Is breakfast ready? Go next door and call my friend over."

Zuo Feng spoke in a calm tone without any emotional fluctuations, but he could feel a pair of evil eyes staring at him, making him feel like a thorn in his back. He knew that the other party was closely observing his every move. If the other party saw any problems, it was not impossible to take action here.

He could feel the aura of opposition slowly rising, and the dangerous feeling of a bowstring fully drawn and aimed at him kept lingering in his heart. But if he kept his back to the other party like this, he was afraid that the other party would notice the problem more after a long time.

Thinking of this, Zuo Feng secretly gritted his teeth, and his expression immediately turned slightly dissatisfied. He turned around and said, "Didn't you hear what I said? Didn't I tell you to go over and call my friends to get up? Uh, it turned out to be the Lord of the City. Excuse me, excuse me!"

Originally, his face was full of dissatisfaction, but after seeing the other party, it immediately turned into an extremely embarrassed smile.

"I didn't expect that it was Lord Lin who came. I was still thinking about taking time to visit you today. It's the junior who should go to visit you. Please sit inside."

The moment Zuo Feng turned around, the other party's knife-like eyes were faintly filled with murderous intent. Zuo Feng felt that he was not wrong. If he didn't deal with it well, the other party might really take his life.

Fortunately, Zuo Feng turned around decisively, leaving the other party no chance to brew the murderous aura in his heart. Zuo Feng's performance was still natural, because this was the result he had just practiced several times in his mind, and he thought he could still barely get away in front of this old fox.

Although the killing intent on City Lord Lin's face was restrained, the aura in his body was still surging. Zuo Feng could naturally sense that the other party still had the intention to kill him at this moment.

After a slight hesitation, Zuo Feng pretended to be surprised and said, "Look at the city lord's anger. I think the city lord must be angry because we didn't live in the upper room as you arranged. I also thought that I was a little presumptuous in Tushan Town before, so I didn't dare to be too unruly here.

The city lord reserved the upper room for us because he loved the younger generation, but the younger generation couldn't go there shamelessly. I hope the city lord won't bother with us young people."

Zuo Feng said this generously and appropriately. He first brought up the fact that he and others didn't live in the upper room, and at the same time used this method to ease the awkward atmosphere between the two sides.

City Lord Lin hesitated for a while, then nodded and walked into the room. Although Zuo Feng still had a respectful smile on his face, he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

Although both of them seemed extremely calm on the surface, there was actually an undercurrent beneath their calm exterior. Zuo Feng knew that if he failed to handle it well, the boat would capsize and everyone would die. From the moment City Lord Lin arrived here, he seemed to be convinced that it was him who was secretly doing the trick, and he was determined to eliminate him at all costs.

But for some reason, this determination wavered at the critical moment. If Zuo Feng were to judge him, he should never be so sloppy and unable to make a decision. Although Zuo Feng tried his best to cover up his suspicion, anyone who looked at the situation last night would have guessed that Zuo Feng played an important role in it.

Although there is no substantial eight handles in hand, with the strength of City Lord Lin and those people last night, just because of suspicion, he can just go on a killing spree and ignore the others. But now the other party obviously has no suspicion, but is willing to stop fighting with him. This makes Zuo Feng a little confused.

At this moment, Zuo Feng was a little confused about City Master Lin, not because he was too cunning, but because he was too easy to fool. Since the situation was very favorable to him, Zuo Feng certainly wouldn't say anything else. Instead, he continued to greet City Master Lin with a smile to sit down in the house, while he poured a bowl of water for him.

Serving the water as a junior, he said with a smile: "Junior, there is no tea here, and there is nothing to entertain, so I will use this bowl of water to express my gratitude. Thank you, Lord City Lord, for taking care of the room for us. Although we I didn’t check in, but I still appreciate the kindness. I hope the seniors won’t blame the juniors for their poor behavior.”

Although the two sides are now enemies rather than friends, since they have not yet reached the stage of quarreling with each other, Zuo Feng is naturally willing to do his best. Especially if you say a few innocuous words here, there is no burden on Zuo Feng.

City Lord Lin narrowed his eyes as he pushed down the water at hand. He couldn't help but look at Zuo Feng again. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the bowl and took a big sip. If you just look at his face, it seems that what is in the bowl is not water but water. It doesn't even look like wine, but more like a night of poison.

Of course Zuo Feng knew in his heart that in the battle last night, the old man lost both his wife and his troops. One-third of the men he sent over were killed by him, and it was not known whether the remaining men left alive. At least as far as Zuo Feng knew, a few of them were seriously injured.

In addition, even the city guards were affected. Although Zuo Feng didn't know the details of these situations, thinking about them made him feel happy. Some people are happy and others are depressed. The old man surnamed Lin across from him is the most depressed one, but he has to pretend to be indifferent when facing Zuo Feng, as if everything has nothing to do with him.

More importantly, City Lord Lin now has to pretend to be an adult. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "My little friend doesn't like to live in the upper room arranged by me. Of course, he has the right to choose. How could this old man do it?" How much to blame.”

After a slight pause, he continued: "Actually, I have an old friendship with Mayor Gao of Tushan Town, and what happened in Tushan Town is just a misunderstanding. I am preparing a room for you this time, and I also hope to be a peacemaker and let you and Let’s clear up the past feud with the mayor.”

Seeing that the other party was still holding on for dear life at this moment, Zuo Feng couldn't help but laugh. On the surface, there would naturally be no change. Pretending to be stupid, he said: "Where did this misunderstanding come from? It's just that there were a few twists and turns during the competition. How can I blame the mayor for such a thing? City Lord Lin, please rest assured."

City Lord Lin nodded heavily, and at this time he lowered his head to prevent Zuo Feng from seeing the change in his expression. But he was cursing secretly in his heart, 'Little twists and turns, this little twists and turns in your mouth, Tushan Town has almost been looted, and all the valuable objects have been used as compensation for gambling. ’

He said to himself in his heart. At the same time, he couldn't help but think of his loss last night. The usually calm old man couldn't help but tremble all over.

If he didn't have too many scruples, he would probably slap the young man in front of him to death right now, and why would he talk nonsense with him here.

Sighing secretly in his heart, City Lord Lin put on a smile again and said slowly: "I came here just to see how well Mr. Shen had a rest last night. This Yuanshan Inn can be regarded as the best in our Tushan City. I didn’t expect that the young master would find this place the first time he came.”

These words were obviously meant to be used by Zuo Feng, but Zuo Feng replied without hesitation: "My good brother has been here several times, so he knows a little about this place. He recommended it to me I originally thought the environment of this Yuanshan Inn was pretty good, but I didn’t sleep well last night. There were shouting and killing and arresting bandits, which made me unable to get much rest throughout the night. "

The corners of City Lord Lin's eyes twitched slightly. Zuo Feng's seemingly unintentional words touched his tense nerves. However, City Lord Lin's expression only changed slightly, and he immediately regained his composure.
