Lin Jun smiled slightly, then, as if remembering something, suddenly spoke up, "Speaking of which, Elder Feng, you haven't asked me about Wenren Tianxia at all. What, aren't you concerned about Wenren Tianxia's current situation?"
Feng Lingqiu was slightly surprised by this, then smiled and replied, "Yes, I forgot to ask you earlier. How has Wenren Tianxia been lately?"
"Hmm, that's good. She came to the island with me when we were eliminating the bandits on Dongting Lake. We had a competition to see who could kill the bandits. Guess how many she killed?"
"How many?"
"More than six hundred!"
"so smart?"
"Yeah, I'm not as good as her. I only killed a little over four hundred."
"Then you're not bad either."
"Excellent."
As the two talked, they gradually made their way back to the vicinity of Xiangshui County along the forest path.
Walking on the official road, the county town gate is not far ahead.
At this moment, Lin Jun seemed to remember something again, so she asked Feng Lingqiu, "By the way, Elder Feng, do you remember something?"
"what?"
"Didn't we soak in the hot springs together when we were at Cangjian Manor? What was the name of the mountain where the hot springs were located again?"
Feng Lingqiu thought for a moment and then replied, "I remember it was called Zaoyue Peak, right? What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Lin Jun shook her head, then laughed again.
He said casually, "I just suddenly remembered that we used to have competitions and bets. It was really fun."
Chapter 287 She's a fake!
Feng Lingqiu was slightly surprised to hear what Lin Jun said.
However, she still smiled and said, "Yes, it really brings back fond memories."
We even made a bet, the loser would have to feed you wine. I did that with you back then…”
As he spoke, Feng Lingqiu's face flushed slightly.
He then smiled at Lin Jun and said, "How about it? Want to try again?"
Lin Jun was slightly surprised.
"Try again? With you?"
"Yes."
"Um... let's just forget about it..."
"That's it..."
As the two chatted and laughed, they had already entered the city from outside.
And they gradually approached the Hui family mansion.
At this moment, Lin Jun said to Feng Lingqiu, "This is the place, Hui Zhilan's family home. We will stay at the Hui family home for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Feng Lingqiu nodded slightly.
As the two approached, they noticed that the gates of the Hui residence were wide open.
It seemed that they had known about Lin Jun's departure in advance, as the steward of the manor was waiting here and had left the door open for Lin Jun and her companions.
This would not have been possible before, because bandits would be active at night, making even the city quite dangerous.
Once night falls, every household must lock their doors to prevent robbers from breaking into their homes.
However, after the Dongting River bandits were wiped out, the county magistrate and others strengthened security in the county and arrested several groups of vagrants who relied on the river bandits for their livelihood.
Now, it has taken on a flavor of leaving doors unlocked at night.
The steward was somewhat surprised to see Lin Jun return with Feng Lingqiu.
He then smiled respectfully and said, "Miss Lin Jun, didn't you just go out? Why are you back so soon?"
Lin Jun casually gestured to him and said, "I ran into an old friend on the way, so I came back early."
At this moment, Feng Lingqiu nodded to the steward.
Lin Jun also gestured to Feng Lingqiu, saying, "Elder Feng, please."
He then gestured for Fenglingqiu to go first.
However, Feng Lingqiu glanced at Lin Jun, seemingly noticing something.
He suddenly stopped and smiled at her, saying, "Miss Lin Jun, please go first."
"How can you say that? You're the elder, how can you fall behind? Please go first."
"But I'm not used to walking in front of people, so please go first."
"..."
"..."
The expressions on their faces changed slightly, gradually turning from initial politeness to a coldness.
The butler noticed this and found it strange.
It's just entering a door, why are you arguing about it?
Does it matter who comes first or last?
After a brief standoff, Feng Lingqiu and Lin Jun seemed to gradually grasp the current situation.
They also realized that their identities had been exposed.
Because whoever enters the gate first will be trapped like a turtle in a jar.
When one person is in front and the other is behind, it is very easy for someone to grab them from behind.
That's why none of them want to be in the lead.
At this moment, Lin Jun looked at Feng Lingqiu and said in a slightly cold tone, "It seems that Elder Feng is unwilling to take a step forward and become a guest in the Hui residence?"
Feng Lingqiu remained silent.
It was as if the disguise they had worn all along had finally been removed.
He said with a puzzled look, knowing that there was no point in continuing the performance.
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, a series of cheerful footsteps came from not far behind Feng Lingqiu.
Just then, you can see a few girls coming from that direction.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Liuli and the others.
They each carried snacks and toys, as if they had just returned from a trip.
It seems that there is a festival in Xiangshui County tonight. Everyone has finished participating in the temple fair and is only returning home at this time.
And so, coincidentally, at this moment, I stumbled upon the two people who were "politely deferring" to each other and unwilling to enter the door.
Leading the group was Di Shanshan, who was holding a small lantern.
He paused, stunned, when he saw someone standing at the entrance of the Hui residence.
Then they saw Feng Lingqiu and Lin Jun locked in a stalemate.
"Elder Feng? What brings you here?"
Di Shanshan made a questioning sound.
Then she looked at Lin Jun and exclaimed in surprise.
"Sister Lin Jun? Why did you go to the front?"
As she spoke, Di Shanshan subconsciously turned her head to look behind her.
Under the lamplight, a tall woman dressed in red, just like Lin Jun, and wearing a Hua Dan mask, was leading Liuli and Beidou out of the darkness.
When she walked into the light, she saw "Lin Jun" in front of her and was immediately stunned.
Then, she raised her hand and took off the mask from her face.
What's surprising is that this woman looks exactly like "Lin Jun" who is next to Feng Lingqiu!
Liuli and the others were immediately stunned upon seeing this.
But Feng Lingqiu seemed to have anticipated this scene.
At that moment, he immediately pointed at Lin Jun, who was not wearing a mask, and loudly warned, "She's fake!"
The moment the fake Lin Jun saw the real Lin Jun, she turned and ran away.
Zhen Linjun—also known as Chi Junlin—did not ask any further questions at this moment.
Without hesitation, he used his lightness skill to rush towards the fake Lin Jun.
In just a few breaths, she had caught up with the fake Lin Jun in front of her and was about to reach out and grab her.
But just before the fake Lin Jun was about to be caught.
A familiar soft laugh suddenly reached Chi Junlin's ears.
"whee……"
Then, a red dress suddenly floated over in front of her.
Immediately following was a sudden and violent explosion!
A large pile of white powdery substances suddenly exploded in front of Chi Junlin.
"Be careful! It's poisonous!"
Feng Lingqiu called out a reminder.
Chi Junlin was well aware of the situation and naturally knew the gravity of the situation.
He immediately waved his hand, using his powerful internal force to suddenly disperse the white smoke in front of him.
He then covered his face with his sleeve and took several steps back to avoid the area covered by the white smoke.
However, with this delay, by the time the dust settled, the person in front of them had completely vanished.
At this moment, Feng Lingqiu walked to Chi Junlin's side and sighed, "It's a pity that she didn't want to get ahead of me. Otherwise, I could have captured her directly."
Chi Junlin nodded upon hearing this.
Clearly, Feng Lingqiu had already recognized that the fake body in front of him was not himself.
Therefore, contingency plans have been prepared in advance.
However, this guy was still too shrewd and was very wary of Feng Lingqiu.
Although they had traveled together all the way here, Feng Lingqiu had never caught them out of their predicament.
He was cunning and agile, and his appearance was exactly the same as Chi Junlin's; he even managed to deceive Feng Lingqiu.
In Chi Junlin's heart, only one person could do this.
Ye Qiancao.
At this moment, the sounds of fighting coming from the doorway had already alerted everyone inside the mansion.
Hui Sanmei, Wenren Tianxia, and others who remained in the mansion had already arrived here.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Upon seeing Chi Junlin and the others, Wenren Tianxia preemptively asked the question.
At this moment, Feng Lingqiu turned around and looked at her.
Wenren Tianxia immediately showed an expression of great surprise.
"Master? Why are you here?"
At this moment, Feng Lingqiu looked at Wenren Tianxia and revealed a genuine smile.
