Looking at Zuo Feng's helpless expression, Kang Zhen could only sigh in his heart. The old man next to Zuo Feng also sent someone to investigate secretly, but the result was that the old man was actually a more mysterious existence than the city lord. His cultivation and origin were unknown. He only knew that this man appeared in Luancheng half a year ago, and as soon as he arrived at Luancheng, he was immediately treated by the city lord of Luancheng.

The Lord of Luan City even cleared a house in Luan City to give this mysterious old man a quiet resting place, but the old man is even more mysterious. In addition to visiting the lord regularly once, he wandered around like a beggar in a torn clothes at other times. Although many people are curious about the identity of the old man, no force can find out the old man's background.

Originally, Kang Zhen wanted to use this friendship with Zuo Feng to find out some secrets of the old man or the city lord, so as to facilitate his family's future transactions in Luancheng. But now it seems that if Zuo Feng was not aware of it, either of them had been specifically instructed by Zuo Feng.

"Don't be surprised, my friend. We families who often hang out in Luancheng are very concerned about news from all aspects. Since the little brother has a hidden secret, I will naturally not be embarrassed. I originally wanted to invite my little brother to sit in my place and taste the skills of our chef. It seems that it is only a good day to choose another day."

Kang Zhen always had a good impression of Zuo Feng, but Zuo Feng couldn't answer his question, and he felt a little sad. After thinking for a while, Zuo Feng said, "Since Uncle Kang has invited me, I will definitely visit you another day."

Hearing Zuo Feng say this, Kang Zhen immediately smiled and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, since there are these words from the little brother, I will prepare some good food tomorrow and I will invite you. At that time, my little brother must come to the small gathering."

“Sure, certain,”

The two of them said a few more words and then left. Zuo Feng knew most of the situation in Luan City from Yaoxun, but obviously Kang Zhen should be more familiar with this place, so Zuo Feng also wanted to learn more about the situation from Kang Zhen, especially the young sect leader Kui Xiang who was very unfriendly to him today.

In fact, Zuo Feng also cared about some things. It was because these forces participated in the auction this time. It seemed that they had received some news about the auction items before, and they came deliberately for some or some items. Zuo Feng did not arrogantly think that he was qualified to compete with these major forces, but if these people valued them so much, Zuo Feng was naturally extremely curious. If there was any news about the Soul Transformation Liquid, it would be a huge gain for him.

While Zuo Feng was thinking, he felt that the pedestrians around him suddenly became rare, as if he had entered the side street where the straw shed was located and suddenly became like this. Before, Zuo Feng had only vaguely guessed, but tonight he had seen the female city lord of Luan City with his own eyes, and also felt the unusual relationship between the city lord and Yao Xun.

The dozen houses in this side street were already empty. It can be said that Li Shang made special arrangements for Yao Xun. However, Yao Xun and Li Shang were obviously old acquaintances, but they were not very clear about some of Yao Xun's things. Li Shang had asked Zuo Feng many questions before. At first, Zuo Feng was vigilant to think that the other party wanted to find out his background, but later he found that this was not the case. Li Shang seemed to care more about what the relationship between him and Yao Xun was.

Suddenly, Li Shang's expression when he heard that he was interested in refining weapons came to his mind. This expression was almost exactly the same as when Yao Xun heard him say in the VIP room. "What is the connection between these two people, and what special significance does he have to Yao Xun or Li Shang?"

Zuo Feng walked towards the straw hut while constantly thinking about these questions in his mind. Soon Zuo Feng saw the straw hut from afar, but at this time there were several strangers outside the straw hut. These people stood respectfully outside the straw hut and did not dare to disturb the medicine in the straw hut at all.

Yao Xun ignored the people outside the straw shed, but lay very freely on the pile of dead grass belonging to him. He would take a sip at random every moment, and never turn the eyelids of the people around him.

Seeing such a strange scene, Zuo Feng came out of the straw shed and said casually: "Senior, these people are all here to find you, have you caused some trouble?" Zuo Feng learned enough of Yaoxun's usual tone, and his tone was deliberately speaking as if he was teaching someone a lesson.

"Hmph, you're back. You're all caused by these troubles. The evil people come to complain first. You can quickly get rid of these tricks. Don't disturb my dream here."

Zuo Feng became more and more confused as he heard it. Finally, he opened his eyes wide and looked at the strangers around him. These people were dressed very carefully. At least they were no worse than the middle-aged man who gave him VIP cards. Moreover, looking at the breath of several people, they actually had the strength to be close to the late stage of bone refining and tendon quenching.

"Hehe, this must be Shen Feng, Master Shen. These are some small gifts prepared by my master for you. Things are not very expensive, but my master hopes to get closer to Master Shen."

The first person to speak was a bald middle-aged man. While talking, the man took out a wooden box from his arms. When he opened the wooden box, he revealed six spiritual stones with light green light. Zuo Feng could see at a glance that these spiritual stones were of medium quality. Obviously, the "black etiquette" in the person's mouth was just a polite word.

Zuo Feng is not a fool, and he still understands the principle of not receiving any reward without merit. He glanced across the wooden box and said with a slightly plain face: "I am not familiar with your master, so I will naturally not accept this gift. If there is anything, you can tell it directly, and there is no need to beat around the bush."

There were two middle-aged men next to them. When they saw the bald middle-aged man speaking first, their faces showed displeasure. Seeing Zuo Feng being so cold, both of them also showed secret joy.

The bald middle-aged man was also very surprised when he saw Zuo Feng not moving at all about the spiritual stone in his hand, but the smile on his face was still so bright, and he said quickly: "My master really wants to interact with Master Shen. These are just small thoughts. As long as the master is willing to meet my master with me, he will definitely have a generous gift."

Zuo Feng looked at the bald middle-aged man in front of him with a smile, shook his head slowly, and said, "I have a lot of things in the past few days. Please tell your master when I go back and tell you that if I can have time, I will definitely visit you."

When someone said this, he knew that it was perfunctory when he heard it. Zuo Feng was too lazy to ask which one the master of this guy was. When he went to visit, he was just a polite statement.

The middle-aged man could naturally hear it, but he still smiled and said, "My master is the eldest son of the Wu family from Yelinnan County. Our Wu family has mined the magnetic spirit stones for generations. I think the master should also hear it."

Zuo Feng couldn't help but nodded subconsciously, and the joy on the bald man's face became even stronger. In his opinion, the people participating in the Luancheng auction would have heard of the Wu family in their Nanjun, but Zuo Feng could not guess what he thought in his heart, because Zuo Feng just wanted to say that he knew the "magnetic spirit stone".

When he was cultivating in the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion, the quiet room where he was was inlaid with several magnetic spirit stones. At that time, he didn't know anything about this kind of thing. Later, he accidentally discovered that this quiet room could block his own mental power exploration. Later, he learned about the existence of this ore from Uncle Tian. Moreover, the price of this ore is extremely expensive, and there is even a saying that a thousand pounds of money is exchanged for dust.

Zuo Feng naturally knew that this was an exaggeration. When their Zuojia Village trading house held an auction, it once auctioned a magnetic spirit stone the size of a fingernail. At that time, the price of the magnetic spirit stone was sold at 7,000 gold coins. The trading house only auctioned on behalf of the company, and eventually earned 200 gold.

Because of this, Zuo Feng still has a deep understanding of this magnetic spirit stone, but this will not make Zuo Feng have any favors for the eldest son of the Wu family. He will ask for something when giving gifts to others. Zuo Feng is already in trouble now, so he naturally doesn't want to cause any trouble for himself.

Including the bald man, the other two were paying attention to the changes in Zuo Feng's expression. When they saw Zuo Feng, they only smiled politely. The bald man couldn't help but show suspicion, while the other two were both happy.

At this time, a short and thin middle-aged man next to him took the opportunity and spoke first: "Hello Master Shen, I am a family member in Ganxu County, Xuanwu. We have been famous for cultivating and digging various rare medicinal materials for generations. This time, our eldest son-in-law from our family hopes to invite Master Shen to get some time together. As long as Master Shen takes time to go there and take a walk, I promise that Master will make a good visit,"

The short and thin middle-aged man said, and showed a smile of "you understand". Zuo Feng heard the other party say that he wanted to specialize in the medicinal materials business, and he couldn't help but say in his heart.

"You are the aristocratic family that cultivated medicinal materials in the Xuanwu Empire. Isn't that the same as the Kang family in Luan City now?"

When the short and thin middle-aged man heard Zuo Feng mention the Kang family, he was stunned at first, and then explained with a smile: "Master Shen seems to be not familiar with our Xuanwu. The Kang family is famous for refining medicines for generations. Most of their medicinal materials are purchased from other places, and a small number of them were excavated by people from their family in the mountains."

After hearing this, Zuo Feng also had some understanding of the Kang family. At that time, he only knew that the Kang family was engaged in business related to medicinal materials, but he did not expect that it was mainly refining medicine.

"Since the master is interested in Xuanwu, it is better to follow me to meet my eldest son-in-law. He admires the master very much, and our family is very familiar with Xuanwu's affairs, so we can make the master satisfied."

Although Zuo Feng wanted to know the situation of the Xuanwu Empire at this time, this man was obviously like the others, and he came to him with something, so he naturally was unwilling to be invited to go there.

At this moment, heavy footsteps came from afar. Everyone also looked in the sound and saw a tall and fat figure slowly walking towards the straw shed.
