"The forces that we are investigating can be divided into two parts, based on internal and external factors. "I'll start from these two parts and tell you the clues we found. The main analytical aspects are me and the two of them, but there are still some parts that I don't fully understand."

As he spoke, he pointed at Zuo Qing and Zuo Jun, who were sitting behind him. Zuo Feng waved his hand casually and said, "We are good brothers who grew up naked, so don't throw out those courteous words again. We'll start with your investigation leads, and tell us your analysis as well. "

He still knew a bit about these friends of his. Although he had some unique advantages in investigation and detection, he was still lacking in analysis. But he really wanted to hear what they had to say about the clues they had discovered. That way, he could objectively voice his opinion.

Zuo Hou smiled and said, "Then we will start from the inside of Yan City, and we will naturally start with our old enemy, Zhang Yu. The Commander's Manor seems to be relatively quiet during this period of time. Aside from the routine of defense and training, there seems to be nothing else. However, we have carefully observed the people who have been entering and exiting his residence. "

Zuo Feng wasn't surprised by this. Although Zhang Yu showed hostility towards Zuo Jia Village, she still maintained an amiable attitude towards An Xiong on the surface. Zuo Feng did not interrupt him, but let him continue.

"They even told us to investigate the street where the old shop was previously located, and the few shops that appeared afterwards that specifically oppressed us did indeed come from Commander Zhang Yu's estate." Ever since we started the Zuo Yun Trading Company on this main street, the other shops on the side of the old store immediately closed as well. "

Zuo Hou paused for a moment, but Zuo Feng was not interested in what he had expected. Seeing that, Zuo Hou laughed awkwardly and continued.

"A new batch of people have come out of Commander Zhang Yu's residence. A few female members of the family and the person you told us to investigate earlier should be the same group."

These words made Zuo Feng a little interested. Since Zuo Hou was so sure of them, he must have seen one or more of them with his own eyes. It seemed that the remnants of the Mountain Bandits had finally fully met with Zhang Yu. He believed that it was impossible for An Xiong to not know of this information, but he did not understand why An Xiong did not tell him about it.

"It was because of the frequent activities of this group of people that we discovered that they were most likely from another force."

Hearing this, Zuo Feng clearly became more spirited, and his body subconsciously straightened a bit. Zuo Hou's voice sounded out, and he continued speaking.

"After entering the commander's mansion, the remnants of the Mountain Bandits will frequently leave the city. Because we are afraid of being discovered, we have always been following them within the city." But then we discovered that the bandits' activities had slowly shifted to the city, and through them, we were able to discover the existence of another group of bandits. "

Hearing this, Zuo Feng slightly raised his eyebrows. Because he had already guessed most of the identity of this group of people, it was obvious that this group of people were most likely the "Yin Group" of the Empire of Heaven's Tribute. Previously, they had been in contact with the remnants of the bandits outside of the city. However, when An Xiong sent his men to exterminate them, they forced the rest of the bandits into the city.

Zuo Feng quickly deduced a general idea, but he still hadn't figured it out yet. When these people entered Yan City, was it their own strategy, or was it the City Lord An Xiong's various conditions that forced them into Yan City? If it was the latter, then An Xiong must have another motive.

"We also secretly investigated Commander Lu Yun. Recently, this person's activities had been very regular. It was said that he had no interest in the internal conflict between the city governor and the county governor. And the person who normally has a close relationship with him is the City Lord of Peng City, Xing Ye, who is known as the Wine Madman. "

Hearing Xing Ye's name, Zuo Feng couldn't help but slightly raise the corner of his mouth. Although he had never met this domineering city lord, judging from his knowledge of his disciple 'Wine Fist Ding Hao', he shouldn't be as despicable and despicable as Zhang Yu. This caused him to be unable to help himself from having a little interest in Commander Lu Yun.

Seeing that Zuo Feng's expression changed a few times, but still didn't say anything, he continued.

"This is the same with City Lord An Xiong. Recently, he has been moving about quite frequently. There are too many people going in and out of his mansion every day. Aside from the few people he usually has a good relationship with, only a few people from the capital come over.

Zuo Feng had expected all of this. After all, the city lord of An Xiong was directly appointed by the empire. It was very normal for him to have a few trusted aides within the imperial city. Furthermore, he had recently been involved in his fight for the county governor's seat, so naturally, he would be in closer contact with the people from the imperial city.

"All of these circumstances are quite normal, but from what you've said before, it seems that the situation in the shop isn't looking good."

Zuo Feng thought about it for a while, then asked Zuo Hou in confusion.

"Naturally, the situation is not looking good because there have been more and more strangers appearing around the shop recently. Furthermore, from our observation, many of the people who entered seemed to be looking at the goods in the shop, and the people who circled around the shop seemed to be paying attention to us, the Zuo Yun Trading Company. "

"Observing us? "Do you know which side these people belong to?"

Zuo Hou said with a serious expression, "At present, we can only determine that the City Lord and Zhang Yu are on one side, but we are not sure about the other two." Although there is a group of people who are scattered around and spying on us from afar, we still discovered that they are most likely in cahoots with three people. "

When Zuo Feng heard about the actions of the "three men's group", he immediately thought of the group of grey robed men, but he was not sure afterwards. After all, the military of the Yulin Empire was likely to be like this as well. After thinking for a moment, Zuo Feng asked, "There's still a group of people there. How's the investigation going?"

"Sigh, this group of people are even more mysterious. It looked like a caravan, but it had already stayed in Yan City for more than a month. If it was a normal caravan, they would have to pay the price for the lodging. However, this group of people still live in the best hotels in the city, and every day they still leisurely search through the nearby shops for the materials they need to buy. "

After Zuo Feng heard this, he felt that things were getting tricky. The City Lord's Mansion was very normal around here, because they had promised to take care of the shop in the Zuo Family Village. However, from what Zuo Hou said, the person sent by the mayor also seemed to be monitoring something. Zuo Feng couldn't help but be confused. At the same time, he was worried about the current situation of the village.

"The last two groups of people that I mentioned previously are the ones that belong to the external forces. And now, for some reason, these people seemed to be very interested in our Zuo Family Village. Not only the shop in the front, but even the few mansions behind the Exchange Hall are also being closely monitored. "

Hearing this, Zuo Feng's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. In the few houses at the back, other than his own, he used one each for his small group and his hunting squadron. Other than that, there was also the house where his own family lived. Fifth Elder's family and the Zuo family also lived.

These people were closely monitoring the place, making Zuo Feng extremely uncomfortable. Previously, it was Zhang Yu who sent out those people to injure his father and sister at his doorstep. While thinking about the past, Zuo Feng suddenly recalled the afternoon when An Xiong was chatting with him about his family members, especially his little sister Tian Hao.

Zuo Feng's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of anything even after thinking for a long time. It wasn't just because of the nervousness of his family, but also for some other reason. Although he felt like he had forgotten something important in his mind, no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't think of what he had forgotten.

Although Zuo Feng and the others did not know what he was thinking, they could tell from his serious expression that it must be something extremely important. So they did not say anything and waited quietly.

After a long while, Zuo Feng let out a long sigh and glanced at them tiredly. At this moment, Zuo Feng finally truly realized how difficult his master had been back then. The safety of the village had been put on one person's shoulders, and it truly wasn't easy.

Zuo Feng looked at Zuo Hou, then looked at his two companions. He took out a short knife from his backpack. The handle of the knife was a sheet of golden yellow. The scabbard was made from fine cyan iron wood. This was the short blade that Zuo Feng had obtained after defeating the wine fist Ding Hao in the turret trial.

After Zuo Feng saw the dagger, his eyes seemed to have been locked, unable to move an inch. Zuo Feng didn't want to mess with him, so he threw the dagger over. Only then did Zuo Hou come back to his senses and hurriedly caught the incoming dagger.

As soon as the dagger was unsheathed, dozens of bright lights lit up the entire room. Let Zuo Qing behind him and

The two young men felt dizzy, tears welling up in their eyes. After the two of them took a deep breath, they said, "How coquettish." Their views were exactly the same as when Zuo Feng first saw the blade.

Zuo Hou hugged his dagger lovingly, and twitched his mouth at the two people behind him, "If you two can't eat it, then just scream about it …" "Oh, the two of you are actually crying from jealousy."

At this moment, Zuo Hou was extremely happy. When he saw the two of them crying, he actually teased them. After that, he suffered a "punch and kick" from the two people behind him. Zuo Hou was in a good mood, so he didn't argue with them.

Zuo Feng's heart skipped a beat as he casually asked, "If I have a weapon that is much better than this blade, do you want to trade it for another weapon?"

Zuo Hou hesitated for a moment before resolutely replying, "I only love sabers, I won't choose any other weapons, even the legendary divine weapons. In my heart, the martial way is nothing else but the saber. Heh heh … So leave those good things of yours to yourself. "
