The first thousand two hundred and thirty-five chapters
"I believe some people here also know my origin, but some people don't know. I will briefly introduce it here. Brother Shen Feng, please listen to me patiently."
Zuo Feng's eyes were still sharp, but he was a reckless person. After hearing Mao Jie's words, he quietly listened to what the other party had to say without even sending a single glance.
"I, Mao Jie, was originally from Baitai County. After I achieved some success in cultivation, I took on a lot of murders for money, so I also made a lot of enemies. Later, I chose to remain anonymous, but I didn't want to remain so silent. So I secretly organized a mercenary group, the Bai Tai Qing Group."
Among the people present, only a few knew about his origins, and most of them were as surprised as Zuo Feng. Unexpectedly, the leader of the Youth League of Baitai Fifth Regiment turned out to be Mao Gai, the city lord of the new county.
After hearing this, Zuo Feng's expression not only did not soften, but instead became even worse.
The young man standing behind Mao Jie was none other than the Blood Sword Jiang Ren who had helped Puppet Xiang and Cheng Tianhao deal with him. At that time, he had identified the Qingtuan as one of his enemies. Now Mao Jie said that he was from the Qingtuan. Leader, how to keep him from being angry.
When Xinjun City was in danger of being destroyed and people killed, although I helped Su Yan, I helped resolve the trouble in Xinjun City that time. The poisonous smoke and firearms at Xinjun Wharf were extremely powerful, and I helped the opponent so much. He was busy and secretly destroyed those poisonous smoke and firearms. This guy turned around and did this to himself.
At this moment, Mao Jie continued: "The Youth League is under the control of my son Jiang Zhuo. I kill the masters in the dark, and then the Youth League develops. But if you walk too much at night, you will eventually encounter ghosts. , once I was plotted by my employer, but thanks to Mr. Su Ying's intervention, I survived.
From then on, I completely joined the Su family and became an external force of the Su family. However, the head of the family did not want the power of the Youth League to be exposed, so the Youth League was handed over to my son to continue to develop, but I was in With the support of the Su family, a new county town was developed."
Some people present had always been puzzled by the fact that Maoji had developed and grown in Xinjun in just a few decades, and finally established a new county, becoming the only county in Xuanwu that grew on its own without being assigned by the king.
Now everyone understands that the Su family is behind this, so everything makes sense.
From the beginning to the end, Su Ying did not interrupt, but allowed Mao Jie to tell these very secret things. It can be seen that Mao Jie must have received Su Ying's instruction.
Looking at Zuo Feng with a look of shame on his face, Mao Jie said: "I have always been grateful for what brother Shen Feng did for Mao Jie and the new county city, and I also want to find an opportunity to repay him."
With a cold smile, Zuo Feng said, "Is this how you repay?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on Jiang Ren again, with a trace of ridicule on his face.
Seeing Zuo Feng talking to Mao Jie like this, Jiang Ren raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Grandpa, I did everything. I can handle everything by myself. Why bother talking down to him? He wants to take revenge on me. You can come over here, or at worst, I'll give you my life."
"shut up"
Mao Jie, who looked as skinny as a monkey, had been polite to Zuo Feng before, but when he heard Jiang Ren's words, his eyes widened and he turned his head and shouted.
Jiang Ren was not polite to Zuo Feng at all, but he was very obedient to Mao Gai. Although he was still dissatisfied and angry, he suppressed his anger and turned his head away and ignored Zuo Feng.
Mao Jie then continued: "In order to prevent the Qingtuan and the new county from getting involved, I have rarely had close contact with the Qingtuan since I became the city lord. After all, the Qingtuan is a mercenary and needs to have its own survival. , they naturally accept any business.
When Cheng Tianhao came here in the name of starting a family, they didn't know your identity, let alone everything you had done for the new county. Therefore, they followed the arrangements of Cheng Tianhao and the Puppet Sect and arranged the Youth League. The warrior takes action against you."
Having said this, Mao Jie looked helpless and ashamed, sighed longly, and said: "The mistake has been made, and now I can only sincerely apologize to little friend Shen Feng, and hope that little friend Shen Feng will forgive me. If Shen Feng Feng Xiaoyou is confused, this grandson is at your disposal."
"grandfather"
"Shut up"
Jiang Ren wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Mao Jie's fierce shouting. Jiang Ren had a stubborn character. Although Mao Jie didn't let him speak, he raised his head slightly and didn't say anything at all. Any fear.
When Su Ying saw that things had turned out to be such a turn of events, he couldn't help but be stunned. He originally didn't understand why Mao Jie deliberately took Jiang Ren with him when he came, but now he understood the other party's intention, which was that he didn't want these things to happen. The original misunderstanding continued, and when Zuo Feng discovered it, it became even more difficult.
Seeing Jiang Ren's reaction, Zuo Feng frowned and suddenly said: "You can call this a misunderstanding. Then Hua Qi and Yao Zhen led their men to block me at the inner city gate and attack me. What kind of excuses did you have for the matter? Did you still not know my identity at that time and what I did for the new county?"
When Mao Gai heard Zuo Feng ask this question, the expression on his face softened a little. What he was most afraid of was that Zuo Feng would be unreasonable, and he was really in the wrong, having helped such a great benefactor. Later, Sun Tzu led his men to deal with him directly. When it came to Su Ying, it was really difficult to explain to him.
Now that he heard Zuo Feng ask about the city gate incident last time, he felt more relaxed. At least Zuo Feng was still a reasonable person who could distinguish right from wrong.
"This is another reason why I brought Blade here, because I wanted to explain the misunderstanding that day."
After saying that, he turned his eyes to Jiang Ren, glared at him and shouted: "Why don't you explain why you are staring at me?"
Jiang Ren frowned, but still said slowly: "It was already very late when we received Yaozhen's summons, and we couldn't deliberately delay it at that time, so I made some other arrangements."
Seeing Zuo Feng's eyes suddenly become sharp, he turned his head away with some dissatisfaction and said: "Why is it inconvenient for us to delay? I will give you an explanation later."
Then he turned his attention to Yaozhuang, the head of the Yao family, and said, "Did Yao Qiu'er mention that they set out for the Su family that day? Did anyone on the road summon them to change their route?"
Hearing him ask this question, everyone, including Zuo Feng, turned to look at Yaozhuang almost at the same time. Yaozhuang was just stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "That's right, Qiu'er wouldn't have taken that road that day. , there is no need to go around the street at the city gate to go to Sujia. However, someone sent a message on the road, telling them to go to the street at the south gate of the inner city.
Although the person who conveyed the message at that time spoke vaguely, he also told them that the matter was urgent and they must go from there. Therefore, Qiuer took people over to have a look. We never knew who had conveyed the message, and we did not expect that
It's the person you sent."
Jiang Ren nodded slightly, then turned to Zuo Feng and said: "Yes, I sent the people out. The reason why I was so careful was because there was another person in my team at that time. We must do something about this person."
We are worried about not exposing the relationship between the Youth League and Xin County."
At this point, Zuo Feng already understood that he might have really misunderstood the other party regarding the inner city gate. From this look, he understood that Jiang Yan and Qingtuan were not targeting him specifically.
Carefully recalling the process of the fight with the Youth League, after Sister Hua was controlled by him, Jiang Yan kept his word and retreated directly with his people without getting involved again.
The danger he encountered later was actually the warriors from Chengjia and Puppet Sect who surrounded him.
Seeing that Zuo Feng didn't say anything, everyone knew that he had no intention of pursuing the matter further, and the atmosphere finally relaxed a little.
Seeing this scene, Mao Jie stood up and said: "Don't worry, little friend Shen Feng, for everything you have done for the new county, I, Mao Jie, will definitely show you something. And about the Qingtuan's attack on you, I
Maoji will definitely make compensation to you. As long as I, Maoji, am here, the new county will always open its doors to little brothers."
Hearing what Mao Jie said, Su Ying and Yaozhuang both smiled and shook their heads. Su Ying said: "Brother Mao is very calculating. Are you thanking Brother Shen Feng, or are you trying to drag him to your new county?"
Go ahead, this plan will work."
Yaozhuang also followed up and said: "I advise you not to think about dragging little brother Shen Feng to the new county town. Little brother Shen Feng is not someone you can digest. He is now...hey!"
Yaozhuang didn't finish what he said, but everyone's expressions froze slightly. Of course, everyone thought of the current situation.
Zuo Feng may have had some disagreements with the Guihua family before. Although the disagreements were not small, they were not too serious. At most, it was the matter of ghost hunting that made the Gui family hold a grudge and secretly seek opportunities for revenge.
But today Zuo Feng killed two painters in a row. Hua Ming and Hua Gang were both direct descendants of the family. The resources the family spent on cultivating such two people were immeasurable, both in terms of emotions and interests.
It is impossible for any painter to let Zuo Feng go in order to protect his own face.
In addition, there is now a stalemate between Zuo Feng and the country's leader, which is also what makes everyone worried.
Although everyone now knows that the country's leader Xuan Hong is plotting something behind the back of the Su family, with whom he is closely related, the showdown has not yet come.
Now that the relationship between Zuo Feng and the country's leader Xuan Hong is like this, they also feel that things are getting more and more difficult.
Seeing that everyone looked gloomy, Zuo Feng had a calm look on his face. Unlike these people, he had a good relationship with the king, and he had no scruples at all about the stalemate in the relationship with the king.
