Lin Zhenzhen asked in confusion, "Didn't you say you had seen him? Big brother, can you think about it carefully? Please."
The worker explained, "Miss, the person in your portrait is Lin Feng, Master Lin. Of course I know him, but I don't know where he went. Master Lin is a master, how could he come to such a filthy place like ours?"
After taking a look at the layout that was no different from the previous ones, Lin Zhenzhen said with some disappointment: "Okay, thank you, sorry for disturbing you."
When Lin Zhenzhen turned to leave, Huangfu Zhong stood by the window in the house, watching everything happen. After Lin Zhenzhen disappeared from Huangfu Zhong's sight, Huangfu Zhong looked at Lin Feng, who was tied to a pillar in the house and gagged, and said, "The one who just came to see you, is she your sister?"
"......" Lin Feng was tied up. If Huangfu Zhong hadn't asked him, he would have really thought that the voice of Lin Zhenzhen he heard just now was an auditory hallucination.
Huangfu Zhong suddenly became sentimental because of Lin Zhenzhen's arrival: "Although I don't have any brothers or sisters, I understand how you feel right now. You want to see them but you don't dare to."
Lin Feng just glared at him fiercely. What the man said was wrong. What did he mean by wanting to see but not daring to see? He couldn't see him. If they hadn't fed him a lot of unknown things, with his martial arts skills, these people would not be able to trap him at all.
Huangfu Zhong ignored Lin Feng's gaze and reminded him again, "The poison in your body, if I'm not mistaken, is expected to break out tomorrow. Once it breaks out, even the Golden Immortal can't save you. I heard from Xiahou Qing that you often follow him. It seems that you know a lot about the living dead."
“……!”
The shock in Lin Feng's eyes was fully revealed to Huangfu Zhong. He seemed to know quite a bit about the Life-Resisting Gu, but he hadn't expected the poison that could transform a person into the living dead to be a small red pill. "Since your time is drawing to a close, I'll tell you. The poison in you is the same one that will transform you into that murderous monster."
"......" Lin Feng suddenly calmed down for some reason. Huangfu Zhong read despair, determination and reluctance in his eyes.
Huangfu Zhong admitted that he was not a good person, but no good person would never do bad things in their entire life, and no bad person would never do good things in their entire life: "So, if you have anything to say, I can still find a way to help you convey it to your sister before tomorrow."
Lin Zhenzhen's face was filled with disappointment. As she dragged her heavy feet back to the government office, she felt her world suddenly darken. She even began to wonder if her brother, who had always been so tolerant and doting on her, was just as his subordinates said behind her back, thinking she was annoying and a burden, and so deliberately avoiding her; or if he really had encountered some great danger and was kidnapped?
Just as Lin Zhenzhen was conjuring up all sorts of guesses, someone excitedly ran in with a letter in hand: "Miss, there's a letter from the Lord!"
Lin Zhenzhen went forward in disbelief: "A letter? Where did it come from? Who brought it over?"
The man explained: "The brothers found it at the door when they were out on patrol."
When Lin Zhenzhen received the letter, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that her bad words really came true? Something had happened to her brother, and the letter was actually from the kidnappers? "Could it really be a blackmail letter? Could something really have happened?"
The visitor saw Lin Zhenzhen hurriedly opening the envelope and muttering some unlucky words, so he took a step behind her out of curiosity and looked at the contents of the letter with her.
After reading it quickly, the visitor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She thought that this young lady was just being overly suspicious. The letter said that Lin Feng had suddenly encountered some difficult matters and therefore broke his promise not to accompany her shopping. He also asked her to stay here peacefully and not cause trouble for everyone. He would come back as soon as he finished his business.
Forget about the ransom note; the handwriting on this letter was undoubtedly Lin Feng's. Furthermore, looking at the strokes, there was no sense of panic at all. It was clearly written with deep thought. If something really happened, who would have bothered to write such a detailed letter? "...It turns out that the master is out on business. Miss, don't worry. He will be back after he finishes his business."
That's what she said, but for some reason, ever since she woke up today, Lin Zhenzhen has felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart. She always feels that everything she sees is wrong: "I always feel a little uneasy."
The visitor thought Lin Zhenzhen was unhappy that Lin Feng went out to do things without her, so she said, "...Well, Miss, if there's nothing else, I'll go get busy first."
Lin Zhenzhen hurriedly called him and ordered, "Wait, help me prepare some dry food, I need to go out of the city."
Upon hearing this, the visitor turned around and bowed, saying, "Miss, we can accompany you in whatever you want to do, but I'm sorry I can't comply with your order. I already instructed you when I was here that you can go anywhere, but you can't leave the city under any circumstances."
Lin Zhenzhen didn't expect that Lin Feng's subordinates were as stubborn as him. In desperation, in order to prevent this subordinate from giving her a lecture like her brother, she quickly waved her hand and said, "Alright, alright, stop nagging. Go and do your thing. If you don't want to go, then don't go."
"I'll take my leave."
However, because she had never encountered any setbacks in her life, Lin Zhenzhen, who did things without considering the consequences, plundered a lot of Lin Feng's private money that night, and took advantage of everyone's inattention to steal a lot of snacks and dry food from the kitchen. She took advantage of the patrol team's shift change and quickly escaped over the city wall.
The only thing left was a letter on Lin Feng's desk expressing her ambitions. However, without Lin Feng, no one paid attention to the actions and words of the young lady Lin Zhenzhen, as everyone was busy with their own things.
Lin Zhenzhen stood outside the city, gazing at the tranquil Qinghe County in the moonlight. She said, "Brother, I'm truly sorry. Since you secretly left me behind, I'll go out and look for Lian Xin. Don't worry, I've met her family, and they're all good people. I heard she's going to Qingliang Valley. Although we're not on good terms with the Liang Kingdom, as long as I don't tell anyone and she doesn't, no one will know I'm from Nanyue."
…On the third day after Lin Feng took the medicine, Xiahou Chun came running to Chun Zai Tang with a look of excitement on his face and dancing with joy: "Pavilion Master, it worked!"
