Chapter 545 A glimmer of hope

"You, what do you want to do?"

The waiter finally recovered from the shock, looking at Zuo Feng with wide eyes and a hint of anger. He had recognized the young man who was carrying him like a chicken, the guest who had stayed in the inn for a few days.

Although the two sides did not talk much in the past few days, the waiter was particularly impressed by him. After all, the city lord had specifically instructed that the top floor room be reserved for the person in front of him. And the person in front of him did not appreciate it at all, and paid for the cheapest lower-class room out of his own pocket.

At the beginning, Zuo Feng showed that his strength was only in the early stage of bone refining, but seeing that the young man was carrying him around like a weightless thing, he was no longer the young man with low cultivation at the beginning.

What made the waiter even more frightened was that the young man's eyes were fierce as if he wanted to eat people. With his years of experience in dealing with various guests, the young man now had some murderous intent. And the young man was no longer as gentle as before, this was clearly a fierce demon possessed by a demon.

Zuo Feng's momentum had completely overwhelmed the guy, like a kitten crawling at the feet of a tiger. The guy's mind was blank at this time, and he even forgot to shout loudly.

Zuo Feng spoke slowly and coldly: "Let me ask you, which room does the woman who came in with us yesterday at noon live in?"

When Zuo Feng asked, the strength in his hand was slightly relaxed, because it was not as suffocating as at the beginning, and the guy regained consciousness. After thinking about it for a while, he immediately understood who Zuo Feng was asking about. Since yesterday, almost no one has moved in, so when he mentioned the woman who moved in yesterday at noon, he immediately remembered who the woman was.

He raised his trembling hand and slowly threw it towards the second floor. He said: "She lives on the second floor, in the second room on the right."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Feng's ghostly figure rushed out. After more than ten floors of stairs, Zuo Feng took three steps to reach the corridor on the second floor.

"Dong"

After a low sound, the closed door was kicked open by Zuo Feng. Although the door was bolted from the inside, the stick, which was not much thicker than a thumb, could not withstand Zuo Feng's full-strength kick.

After the door was kicked open, there was no one inside, only gusts of cool wind blew in through the open window. The room was very clean, as if no one had ever lived there.

Zuo Feng looked around and saw a piece of paper quietly placed on the table. The two lines of words on the paper were clearly visible in the moonlight, but Zuo Feng's face became even gloomier after seeing them.

"My master admires Mr. Shen very much, but he is afraid that the young master is unwilling to accept the invitation to meet him, so he specially takes your friend away for a gathering. I believe that you will go there after you see this letter. Don't hesitate, your friend's life is completely in your hands."

The two lines of messages were very polite, but Zuo Feng's hand holding the letter had unconsciously clenched hard, and his joints turned slightly white because of excessive force.

This line of words has no beginning and no signature. There is only a small tripod painted in the lower right corner of the letter. The tripod is so vivid that it seems to jump out of the paper. If ordinary people see this small tripod, they may hesitate for a while, but Zuo Feng knows it best. This is the medicine tripod used for refining medicine.

When he saw this medicine tripod, Zuo Feng calmed down. When he saw these words before, he had already realized that Amber was not in danger for the time being. Now after seeing this small tripod, he knew that the enemy was deliberately trying to lead him over.

Since the enemy must have planned to do so, it must have been planned in advance, and now it seems that they deliberately left a message. What else could it be if they were not afraid that he could not find it. It was because he figured it out that Zuo Feng became calmer at this time.

Since Amber was used as bait to hang him, if he ignored them, all the enemy's arrangements would fail. But Amber's life would be difficult to protect. But how could Zuo Feng really abandon Amber? Putting aside the fact that both of them were from the bottom of society and had a very deep relationship with each other,

After leaving Xinjun City, Amber stood by him no matter what happened, and was even willing to take risks to stay here to accompany him to participate in the selection. He could never give up on him.

After Zuo Feng calmed down, his thoughts became active, and the whole thing completely emerged in his mind. First of all, this was the premeditated plan. The enemy might have locked on Amber from the beginning, that is, they knew that Duan Xia was with him, so they avoided Duan Xia and attacked Amber.

In this way, even though Duan Xia was there, they still couldn't stop their actions. I calculated everything, but I missed that they could still attack Amber. Of course, this was not a miscalculation by Zuo Feng, because the enemy's target was always on me, and there was almost no point in attacking Amber.

In addition, the enemy's previous actions were all aimed at me, which meant that the enemy did not find out how good the relationship between me and Amber was in their calculations, and they did not think that they could use Amber to contain me. But now it seems that the enemy finally discovered the role of Amber, or just estimated that this possibility is very high.

Thinking of this, Zuo Feng already knew where his mistake was, that is, no matter what dangers he went through, Amber never left him. The most important thing was that today's assassination was so fierce, but Amber still chose to stay and did not leave, so the enemy was able to guess this.

I couldn't help but sighed softly. Amber was in danger because of me. How could Zuo Feng betray his friend?

Next, I need to follow the enemy's orders. If I continue to be passive, I will definitely die.

But when I thought of this, Zuo Feng suddenly felt that there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in this dead end, but I didn't know where this glimmer of hope was.

After reading the contents of the letter several times, Zuo Feng still didn't gain anything. He couldn't help but look up at the sky outside. He originally wanted to see the current time, because tomorrow is the day for the selection of medicine boys. Even if the enemy can't kill him, he can still achieve his goal as long as he delays him.

But when he looked at it, it was pitch black outside and he couldn't judge the time at all. Just at this time, the guy had come up from downstairs. Until now, he didn't understand why Zuo Feng suddenly became like this.

Zuo Feng had already determined who the person was from the footsteps, and said coldly without turning his head: "What time is it now?"

The waiter was puzzled by the question and subconsciously said: "I remember I heard the sound of the night watch before, it should be just after the second watch now."

After listening to the waiter's words, Zuo Feng's eyes lit up slightly, and he finally understood where his chance of survival was.

At this time, the waiter had seen the scene in the house, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Strange, the woman obviously lives in this room, how could there be no one?"

Zuo Feng didn't have the leisure to worry about his problem, and said coldly again: "Don't make the things here public, it won't do you any good, don't worry about the things here."

Originally, there were some guards with high cultivation in the Yuanshan Inn, but in the eyes of the waiter, these guards were not Zuo Feng's opponents, so he didn't wake up the guards now. Moreover, Zuo Feng spoke in a stern tone, not giving him any chance to refute, so he kept nodding mechanically.

Then the waiter turned around and left, but muttered in his heart, 'What's going on here? How do I know what happened here? And it's not a good thing at first glance, I guess I won't get involved. There have been enough things in the inn these days, will I cause trouble for myself? '

Thinking in his heart, the waiter had already made up his mind not to tell outsiders. Just as he went downstairs, Zuo Feng's voice came again behind him, saying calmly: "The young man in my room, remember to wake him up at dawn."

The waiter turned his head and agreed, then walked downstairs quickly. He didn't want to stay here for long, fearing that Zuo Feng would continue to make endless requests.

The sound of the waiter's quick departure fell into Zuo Feng's ears, but Zuo Feng had completely retracted his thoughts. Although what happened tonight put him in a dilemma for a while, Zuo Feng still found a glimmer of hope from it, which was the hope of amber and Zuo Feng.

The enemy left the letter not long ago, so even if the window was open, it still left a faint fragrance. This shows that the enemy's calculations were wrong. They thought that they would not find out until dawn, and by that time, they would definitely fall into the enemy's trap.

The enemy did not know that Zuo Feng had a sensitive sense that ordinary people could not match. Although he did not notice it because he was too focused when studying runes with Duan Xia, after calming down, Zuo Feng noticed that there was not even a normal panting sound in the next room.

Even if Amber was meditating in the room to refine Qi, she did not need to completely restrain her voice, so the lack of sound must have been a problem. Because of these discoveries, Zuo Feng also saw through their conspiracy earlier than the enemy expected.

At this moment, there were still two hours before dawn, which means that he now bought himself two hours of time. Although it was only two hours, it was an important opportunity for Zuo Feng to turn the tide.

After figuring this out, Zuo Feng did not rush to move, but walked slowly to the bed next to him, and then sat cross-legged in meditation. He had been at the peak of the bone refining period for a long time. If under normal circumstances, he only needed to wait patiently, and it would not take long for him to have the hope of improving his cultivation.

But now he really needs to improve his cultivation. If there is no opportunity under normal circumstances, it is difficult to improve his cultivation. But now he has some understanding of runes, he decided to try to improve to the tendon hardening stage by using rune handprints and rune pronunciation.
