C22 Exposed Tail
When Zuo Feng walked out of Zhuang Yu's medicine hut with a dejected expression, an entire morning had already quietly passed. At this moment, his mood was completely different from when he first arrived. Zhuang Yu's last words were still stuck in his ears.
"I am talking about becoming a beginner alchemist. If you want to advance another tier, you will need to at least prepare another three to five thousand gold coins." The higher one goes, the more money one spends. Unless there is a large amount of failure, it is impossible to create an alchemist. Therefore, alchemists are usually only seen in some super large power. "
Zuo Feng ruthlessly shook his head. He could only temporarily give up the impractical idea of becoming an alchemist. However, his hand still subconsciously touched his bosom. The two books that should have been given to Zhuang Yu were on his body at this moment. Furthermore, he had even gifted him a book.
This book was Zhuang Yu's method of connecting bones. However, Zuo Feng had just suffered a blow to his heart, so he was in no mood to pay attention to it. Raising his head to determine the direction, he walked towards Zuo Hou's home with an evil smile on his face.
There was a small package on his waist that contained a dozen or so medicinal packs, which he also gave to Zhuang Yu. Now that these medicinal packs were back in Zuo Feng's hands, he already knew clearly about the effects and uses of these medicines from Zhuang Yu.
"Damned madman, do you want me to die from anxiety? What do you want me to do before you are willing to give that martial skill to me?"
Zuo Feng smirked and shot a glance at Zuo Hou, then said coldly, "Get off me quickly, or else I'll sell this book and sell it for money immediately."
It turned out that Zuo Hou was like an octopus as he clung onto Zuo Feng. Ever since he obtained the Superior Grade Two saber technique, he had thought of this good brother.
Because he had received quite a big blow at Zhuang Yu's place, at this moment, Zuo Feng was deliberately using this martial skill to tease him.
"Then I'm coming down. You promised to give it to me. You want to lie to me... "Hmph, I'll cry for you."
Zuo Hou laid on Zuo Feng's back, gritted his teeth and said a "vicious word". After getting down from his back, he spoke with some displeasure.
"If I hadn't notified the village chief in time, your little life would have been in danger. Yet, you are actually doing this to your 'savior' now."
Hearing him say that, Zuo Feng intentionally made a face, and pretended to squeeze out a voice from between his teeth, "Mmm …."
"Brother Feng, Grandpa Feng, Grandpa Feng." Please forgive me, I beg you. "
The moment Zuo Feng's voice came out, Zuo Hou started begging with a sullen expression. From the looks of it, he was on the verge of kneeling down and begging.
Knowing that he was almost done, Zuo Feng reached into his pocket and took out the "Superior Grade Two Saber Techniques" that he had prepared a long time ago.
Zuo Hou hurriedly grabbed it and flipped through the book in his hands. After confirming that what Zuo Feng said was the truth, he threw out a sentence.
"Damned madman, just you wait."
Zuo Feng smiled slightly but didn't mind. He still had a Superior Grade Six Qi Method. If it wasn't for the Qi Condensation cultivation technique, he would have given it to his good brother as well.
"In the morning, the Village Chief sent someone to inform me that you were to visit him in the afternoon. "It looks very urgent. Do you want to go over there?"
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Stay in the village and don't run around. You get ready, I'll go see my Master first. "
Zuo Feng rushed out of the house, but his voice came back from the yard.
"Master, have you really decided? Are you really going to move away from this village just like that?"
Teng Xiao Yun let out a long sigh and said with some difficulty, "This is a home that several generations have built with all their effort. How would I want everyone to leave this place? "I've been thinking about it ever since I came back last night. I'm afraid this is the only way to save everyone right now."
"When do we start?"
Teng Xiao Yun raised his head and looked at the sky. After frowning for a while, he patted Zuo Feng's shoulder.
"Let's go over now."
Everyone in the village gathered in the plaza outside the Zuo family village. They were all looking at Teng Xiao Yun and other high-ranking members of the village with suspicion. What made everyone even more confused was that Great Elder Zuo Lie's figure was nowhere to be seen on the stage.
"Everyone should be here by now. Let me tell you the village's decision."
Everyone immediately quieted down. When they finished listening to his words, a cold voice filled with disharmony said.
"What decision? Without the presence of the Great Elder, the number of decisions we have made cannot be counted."
Everyone turned to look at the speaker. It was a thirty year old middle-aged man standing at the very end of the stage. The moment he finished speaking, someone reprimanded him.
"Zuo Xiao, you, as the last ranked elder, dare to criticize the village head. Even your father, Zuo Lie, would not dare to speak to the village head in such a manner."
Zuo Feng had seen all of this clearly from below the stage. Zuo Xiao had almost gone crazy, and his identity as a spy had been completely exposed.
They could only imagine that when they saw that Zuo Lie had not returned since last night, they had panicked a little. Right now, they could only choose to prevent him from making any decision until Zuo Lie returned.
"My father left the village yesterday and has yet to return. All the decisions made in the village can only be carried out with the approval of the old man. Even if he isn't here, I can make the decisions for him."
"Bastard, who do you think you are? When will you agree to the Village Head's decision? Moreover, until now, he has yet to say what his decision is, so why are you standing there and clamoring? "
Zuo Feng coldly observed all the changes on the stage, and the one who spoke was still the Third Elder who had scolded Zuo Xiao earlier. The other elders had different expressions. The second elder's face was gloomy. It was unknown what they were thinking, but the fourth elder and the fifth elder seemed to not understand the situation.
"Recently, bandits have been rampant outside the village. Several nearby villages have already been viciously attacked. I have decided to temporarily move to Yan City after everything is settled tomorrow."
The crowd burst into an uproar as soon as he said that. Zuo Feng didn't care about the others, he just stared at Zuo Cheng and Zuo Peng without blinking.
Sure enough, after Teng Xiao Yun explained his plan to move out, the two of them were like ants on a hot pan as they shot an anxious look at Zuo Xiao who was in the stands.
Zuo Feng smiled, their reaction was completely within his expectations. He then turned his gaze to the other people in the crowd, only to see an extremely unsightly Teng Fang looking at him with an unfriendly gaze.
Letting out a long sigh, Zuo Feng helplessly looked away, ignoring Teng Fang's childish behavior.
"On what basis are we migrating? Our ancestors have lived here for generations. The one who should scram is that Mountain Thief."
Zuo Xiao was the first to stand up from the high platform to object. Although the other elders did not like Zuo Xiao's attitude, Teng Xiao Yun's decision was beyond their expectations.
The Second Elder looked deeply at Teng Xiao Yun and said, "Your decision was too sudden. What right do you have to think that we need to move to Yan City in order to be safe?"
Teng Xiao Yun's expression didn't change as he slowly said, "Even the surrounding villages have all been killed, do we need any other reason?"
When the villagers heard this, they thought that the villages were just being attacked and harassed. Now that Teng Xiao Yun told them the truth, the villagers' expressions changed, as if a great disaster was about to befall them. Teng Xiao Yun smiled. He wanted to create the current situation.
Nearly a thousand people were gathered in the plaza, but the spies like Zuo Cheng's group now had very different expressions from everyone else. Their identities as spies were already confirmed.
"I believe that this decision of yours can only be adopted with the consent of all the elders."
Teng Xiao Yun smiled. "This is an urgent matter. I'm afraid we can't treat it like other things. Everyone here has the right to make a decision. If you choose to move to Yan City, then hold your hand."
Just as Teng Xiao Yun finished speaking, Zuo Feng and Zuo Hao took the lead and raised their hands. The other villagers, who just heard the news of the destruction of the villages, were all a bit flustered. Seeing someone raise his hand, everyone slowly raised it. Almost everyone on the plaza raised their hands.
At this moment, the expressions of Zuo Xiao and the second elder on the high platform became even more unsightly. The news of the destruction of the villages that the upper echelons of the village had received had caused everyone to hide their fear. But he didn't expect that Teng Xiao Yun would use this matter to pull everyone to his side.
Originally, if the Grand Elder was here, they might have had a chance to temporarily stop him. However, the Great Clan Elder was not around, and only the two of them had the authority to speak, so there was nothing they could do.
The village had decided to temporarily evacuate. Everyone hurried back to pack up their belongings to prepare for their migration tomorrow. Zuo Feng was holding onto Zuo Hou and Shen Die, tonight's operation had only just begun, and he was very clear on Shen Die's strength, so he would naturally not underestimate her.
"We'll follow Zuo Cheng and Zuo Peng. Tomorrow, the villagers will leave for Yan City. These two fellows will definitely think of a way to send the news out tonight."
Zuo Feng told her the general plan of the operation in a low voice. After he finished speaking, he cast his gaze towards the two figures who were hurriedly leaving, who were in the middle of the crowd.
"But in my opinion, Zuo Xiao and the Second Elder are not good people either."
Zuo Feng smiled brightly and said confidently, "Of course there are people who want to greet them. They don't need us to worry about them."
After saying that, Zuo Feng left first. Zuo Hou and Shen Die looked at each other, then quickly followed.
Zuo Feng looked at Shen Die who had changed into black clothes and sighed in his heart, 'A beauty is indeed a beauty. After changing into black clothes, she is as captivating as an elf in the dark.'
"The rat is out of the hole."
Only then did Zuo Feng come back to his senses, and looked in the same direction, and then said with a face full of doubt.
"Why is there only one person?"
