King Jing was puzzled and said: "But he told me that his surname is Lin." If Lin Jue is really Qin Zuo's son, there is no reason to lie to him on this point, what's more, as far as he knows, that Qin Zuo was originally a son of Nandi. An inconspicuous magistrate, who was promoted to the capital only because of good luck, with that kind of family background, how could it be possible to cultivate a character like Lin Jue?

Seeing that King Jing didn't believe it, Governor Ruan was a little confused, and murmured: "But... the daughter of Mr. Qin's family is exactly the same as that young hero."

King Jing: "Is it really the same?"

Governor Ruan thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "That's true, but..."

King Jing: "But what?"

Ruan Cishi said: "However, that Miss Qin looks more beautiful, and that Mr. Lin looked...watched..." He didn't know how to describe it, he looked at King Jing in embarrassment, and said after a long while: "In short If you don't look at the appearance, there is no similarity between Mr. Lin and Miss Qin."

At the same time, Ruan Qian, the son of Governor Ruan who led Lin Jue through the garden, blushed and said softly to Lin Jue: "Young Master Qin, just pass through another arch and you will be there."

Linjue raised his eyebrows slightly, "My surname is not Qin."

Ruan Qian was taken aback, looked at Lin Jue's face blankly and said, "You, aren't you Miss Qin's elder brother, Qin Qi?"

The corners of Linjue's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at the flushed young man in front of him, "Is that Miss Qin you're talking about Qin Yao?"

Ruan Qian saw that Linjue smiled, and couldn't hear what he said at all. It took him a long time to realize, and he said quickly: "Yes! That's, it's Miss Qin Yao, you are born exactly like her, why, maybe you're not her elder brother ?”

The two of them had already walked to the guest room while they were talking, Lin Jue glanced at the room in front of him, and asked in a casual tone, "Do you like Qin Yao?"

Hearing what Lin Jue said clearly, Ruan Qian quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, Xiaosheng... How dare I have unreasonable thoughts about Lingmei."

Lin Jue looked down at him, "So you dare to treat me?"

Ruan Qian was stunned by his words, Lin Jue smiled coldly when he saw this, stretched out his hand to push the other party away, and entered the room on his own.

The guest room in the Governor's Mansion is not big, but it is very carefully furnished. Lin Jue glanced inside, but couldn't find anything that would be an eyesore, so he dismissed the maids who were waiting in the room and closed the door.

The hot water had already been prepared, and Lin Jue stopped halfway into the ear room to bathe.

In the hot air in the room, he sensed a thin ball of longevity light being sucked into the statue, and then turned into a milky white gleam through the statue, shooting into the sky and disappearing.

At the same time, the voice of Hibiscus came from the double-petaled hibiscus he placed aside, "Master, Zhao Qing offers five years of life, please find the murderer who killed his son and granddaughter, and avenge him .”

The name Zhao Qing sounded familiar, Lin Jue thought for a while, and remembered that this person had made a wish to him 20 years ago. He was leaning naked in the bathtub, closing his eyes slightly in the hazy heat of the room, "This He doesn’t go to the government for such things, but he comes to me. After a few years, he can live and struggle. I’m not afraid that his grandchildren will be left unattended after death.”

Zhu Jin said: "Listen to him, this matter has something to do with evil spirits."

Lin Jue suddenly opened his eyes, and a dark purple evil spirit flashed in his eyes, "Now there are still evil spirits who can infiltrate into the barrier and kill people?"

Zhu Jin said: "That's why I allowed him to make a wish. Master, do you still remember what was found on Li Qing that day? This demon was able to avoid Xu Yao's sweep and sneak into the inner city to harm people. Maybe it has something to do with that big evil spirit. If we can get more news about that demon, it will definitely be beneficial and harmless for us to sweep that demon lair in the future."

Lin Jue: "Tell him, I will go there in person in three days."

Zhu Jin: "Yes."

Amidst the sound of water drops in the room, the double-petalled hibiscus plant under the window sill gradually disappeared into a wisp of light red mist...

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, King Jing was sitting in the house to check the information handed over by his subordinates. In two days, he was about to leave for Beijing. The son is here."

King Jing paused for a while, and immediately said: "Please come in quickly." Afterwards, he put the pen in his hand on the inkstone, and went out of the room after getting dressed.

At that time, Lin Jue had just walked in from the door, he was very handsome, as soon as he stepped into this room, he seemed to bring in the light from the sky, lighting up the room.

Jing Wang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked Lin Jue to sit down.

For the past three days, Lin Jue ate and drank delicious food in the Governor's Mansion, and his life was more carefree than King Jing's. He didn't treat himself as a guest, he wanted whatever he wanted, King Jing also responded to every request, and never spared money.Even so, Lin Jue never took the initiative to look for King Jing, so seeing that Lin Jue came today, King Jing was a little flattered.

"You came just in time. This morning, Dongjin cut a small basket of the excellent Ringo as a tribute. It has already been skinned, and I will send it over for you to taste in a while."

Lin Jue said: "No need, I'm here to say goodbye today."

King Jing was taken aback, "Why do you suddenly want to leave?" He asked, "But the people below have neglected you?"

Lin Jue said: "It has nothing to do with them. My lord, after all, I am a man of the rivers and lakes. No matter how good life is in this mansion, it can't compare to the happiness and enmity in the martial arts world."

"So that's it." Jing Wang said so, but his face was full of disappointment. He looked at Lin Jue's face, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "You really have no blood relationship with that Miss Qin?"

This is the first time someone has asked this question, Lin Jue asked: "If I say that Miss Qin used my face, would you believe it?"

King Jing has always been serious and solemn to the outside world, but now he smiled softly, "I believe! I believe everything you say."

Seeing the eagerness in King Qingjing's eyes, the corners of Linjue's mouth curled up slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes.

King Jing didn't realize it at all, seeing that Linjue had decided to leave, he had no choice but to sigh, took off a jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to Linjue.

This round jade pendant is only half the size of a palm. It is emerald green all over, with some orchids carved on the corners. In the center is a correct "Suo" character, with jade dragons twining around it.

"Thanks to you, I and a few confidantes were able to walk out of the Valley of No Return. The grace of saving lives is hard to repay. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can bring this jade pendant to Prince Jing's Mansion to find me."

Lin Jue put the jade pendant into his bosom, and said to King Jing: "Don't worry, I shouldn't ask you for any difficulties in the future."

King Jing: ...

He didn't know whether to put on a smiling face or not, his face froze immediately.

"Then, farewell!" After saying that, Lin Jue got up and left.

King Jing hurriedly stood up and chased after him, "Wait a minute, I'll see you off."

"No need!"

As soon as the words were finished, King Jing saw that the man's foot was lightly tapped, and his body suddenly rose into the air. When the hem of the black clothes was blown up by the wind, it looked like a lone eagle spreading its wings, and disappeared in front of his eyes in an instant.

At this moment, the sun is shining brightly, but Qi Shuo only feels that his eyes are dim, as if when that person left, even the light of the whole world was taken away.

I don't know when I will see you again.King Jing frowned slightly, and stood there for a quarter of an hour before leaving...

After Lin Jue left the Governor's Mansion, he left Tongcheng without stopping.When he passed a lake on the outskirts of the city on the way, he stopped, took out the jade pendant in his arms and threw it into the lake, and then left without looking back.

And not long after Lin Jue left, a fox with purple-black eyes and a fiery red body suddenly jumped out of the bushes around the lake.

Swinging the three fluffy and huge tails behind him, the fox looked around vigilantly, then plunged into the lake, and took out the jade pendant discarded by Lin Jue.

Biting the jade pendant lightly in his mouth, the three-tailed fox shook off the water droplets on his body, turned around and sank into the jungle...

Dinghai City, West Gate.

In the blink of an eye, half of the day passed, and the economy of Dinghai City was booming. Even at noon on this autumn day, the streets in the city were full of people coming and going, very lively.

After Linjue entered the city, he went straight to a blacksmith shop in the west of the city.

He was walking at such a fast speed that the people on the street felt a gust of fresh wind blowing around them, and a piece of black clothes flickered before their eyes. When they looked up in surprise, they found that there was nothing around him.

The Zhangjia blacksmith shop in the west of the city is very famous. The master blacksmith is old, but his craftsmanship is still very exquisite. The business is booming every day, and there are endless buyers.

When the Jue arrived, there was no one at the door of this thriving shop.The shop was not big, and there was a young man standing inside. He was tall and strong, and when he saw Lin Jue, he was taken aback for a moment, but soon recognized his identity, and hurriedly and cautiously welcomed him in. .

There is a courtyard behind the shop, the young man led Linjue in, and shouted inside: "Father, the owner of the villa is here."

Before the voice fell, Master Zhang rushed out, holding a wooden box in his hand.

Master Zhang opened the box in front of Lin Jue, revealing the mask carved from rosewood inside.

Seeing Linjue staring at the mask, Master Zhang explained: "Miss Zhu said the day before yesterday that the owner's mask was broken, and she will come here today to get a new one. Yes, if the owner doesn't like it, I will burn a black iron embryo, but it will take a few more days to complete, and then..." When he said this, Master Zhang's face was full of anxiety.

Lin Jue reached out to take out the mask, rubbed his fingertips on its smooth surface for a moment, and said with a smile: "No need, this one is very good, I like it very much."

Seeing that Lin Jue was satisfied, both Zhang's father and son heaved a sigh of relief.

Lin Jue put on the mask, the polished and smooth wooden mask put on his face, making his whole body a bit softer.

Master Zhang said: "Should the production of the shop be handed over to the villa this year?"

Hearing this, Lin Jue said: "Do you all know what happened that night?"
