Chapter 523 Eating
Lin Nuofeng walked enthusiastically to Qing Yuze and Feng Yutang, and said with a smile: "My two friends, you have worked hard on the journey. Let me take you to rest." Lin Nuofeng's face was full of enthusiasm, and his eyes revealed curiosity about the two guests.
Qing Yuze nodded slightly and said gracefully, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Lin." Feng Yuqian looked around excitedly, saying, "I've heard that the Lin family's house is magnificent. Now I have to take a good look."
Everyone walked into the house. The Lin family's hall was brightly lit, and the warm light shone on everyone's face. The hall was decorated with simple furniture, and the walls were decorated with calligraphy and paintings, showing the Lin family's heritage.
Lin Feng walked into the hall, his eyes drawn to a large landscape painting. A few vague images flashed through his mind, as if he had once chatted and laughed with his family in front of this painting, but when he tried to grasp these memories, they disappeared without a trace.
Liu Wenjing noticed Lin Feng's abnormality and asked with concern: "Feng'er, what's wrong? Did you remember something?" Her eyes were full of expectation, hoping that Lin Feng could regain some memories.
Lin Feng shook his head slightly and said somewhat frustratedly: "I seem to have some impression, but I can't remember it." There was a hint of loss in his voice, and he felt helpless about his lost memory.
Lin Dingkun walked up, patted Lin Feng on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, take your time, you will remember it eventually." There was encouragement in Lin Dingkun's eyes, he believed that Lin Feng would be able to regain his memory.
Chen Xiner stood aside, quietly watching Lin Feng, her eyes still filled with suspicion. She thought to herself, "If he is really Lin Feng, why do some things feel different?" Chen Xiner's brows furrowed slightly, her doubts growing deeper.
Lin Nuofeng led Qing Yuze and Feng Yuqian along a stroll through the Lin residence's corridors. Lanterns lining the corridor cast a warm yellow glow, casting their shadows against the mottled walls. Qing Yuze, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe and a jade pendant tied around his waist, swayed gently with his steps, appearing elegant and graceful. Feng Yuqian, dressed in a navy blue suit, had a shrewd look in her eyes as she scanned the surroundings, filled with curiosity about this strange and mysterious Lin family.
"Brother Lin, I've heard that the Lin family's firearms are second to none in this area. I'm fortunate to be here today. Could you please tell me what powerful firearms the Lin family has?" Qing Yuze was the first to break the silence. His voice was crisp and pleasant, with a perfect smile. However, deep in his eyes, there was a subtle hint of inquiry.
Lin Nuofeng's heart tightened upon hearing this. He calmly considered the two men before him. As a member of the Lin family, he had been instilled with the importance and vigilance of his family from a young age. He was instinctively wary of outsiders' inquiries, especially those concerning core family secrets. Although these two men came from a prominent family in Qingmu City, their eagerness to inquire about the Lin family's firearms made him suspicious.
Lin Nuofeng frowned slightly, but still had a warm smile on his face. He said slowly: "Brother Qing, Brother Feng, to be honest, the Lin family's firearms now mainly include explosive packs, detonators, and cannons. These firearms are roughly the same as those owned by the empire." His tone seemed relaxed and casual, but every word he said seemed to carry invisible pressure, echoing in the air.
When Qing Yuze and Feng Yuqian heard this, their faces turned pale. They looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and fear. They knew the power of these firearms. The explosion of a dynamite pack could instantly destroy a building. The detonator was small but contained huge energy, and the range and destructive power of the artillery were even more astonishing. Even if there were masters in their family, they would find it difficult to resist the attack of these firearms. Qing Yuze's hands unconsciously clenched the folding fan in his hand, and his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force; Feng Yuqian swallowed, and a dry sound came from his throat.
"This... this power is truly astonishing." Qing Yuze forced a smile, his voice trembling slightly as he tried to hide his inner fear. His mind couldn't help but recall the terrifying scenes of those firearms exploding, flames shooting into the sky, smoke filling the air, as if the world was about to end.
The three of them continued walking, and soon they arrived at a spacious hall. The hall was ablaze with light, its bright, soft glow creating a particularly comfortable atmosphere. Qing Yuze and Feng Yuqian's eyes were instantly drawn to the bulb hanging from the ceiling. The glowing orb emanated a strange light, unlike the cold, night-shining pearl, but imbued with warmth and mystery.
"Brother Lin, what is that glowing ball? The light it emits doesn't look like a night pearl." Feng Yuqian couldn't help but ask, his eyes flashing with curiosity, like a curious child seeing a new toy.
Lin Nuofeng watched their reactions, his suspicions growing more certain. These two people seemed completely unfamiliar with the Lin family, clearly seeking information. Although somewhat displeased, he patiently explained, "This is a light bulb, a type of electrical appliance."
"Oh! So this is an electrical appliance. It doesn't look dangerous." Qing Yuze suddenly realized. He narrowed his eyes slightly and observed the light carefully, trying to find some unknown secrets from it. His eyes revealed a hint of greed, as if he wanted to dig out all the secrets of the Lin family.
Lin Nuofeng sneered inwardly, but remained expressionless. "This appliance isn't dangerous at all. It's mainly used to generate light for the house." As he spoke, he pondered how to deal with these two uninvited guests. He knew the Lin family's secrets couldn't be easily leaked, especially during this sensitive period.
"Brother Lin, I wonder if the Lin family has any other magical things?" Qing Yuze asked again, with a hint of anticipation in his voice, as if he was expecting a grand surprise.
Lin Nuofeng was annoyed, but remained polite. "Of course, please follow me." He led the two on a tour of the Lin family compound. Along the way, Qing Yuze and Feng Yuqian peppered them with questions, covering everything from the Lin family's cultivation methods to the family business. Lin Nuofeng deftly navigated these questions, neither revealing too many secrets nor making the atmosphere awkward. His answers were always ambiguous, leaving Qing Yuze and Feng Yuqian unable to grasp the key points.
