After a moment, Lin Haitang loosened her fingers and began to take out her acupuncture bag. She pinched the silver needles between her thumb and index finger and smiled at Xia Ziqiu with narrowed eyes: "Young Marquis, come on, I need to give you a few needles on your head."

Because Lord Xia was watching, Xia Ziqiu could only agree even though he was reluctant: "Okay, but Princess Anle, please go easy on me. I'm really afraid of getting hurt."

"Don't worry, it won't hurt." Lin Haitang said casually

Lin Haitang's left hand held Xia Ziqiu's head, and her little finger inadvertently rested under his ear.

Lin Haitang gave him the injection with her right hand, and rubbed it gently with her left little finger to confirm that she felt the small bump that could not be felt without careful observation.

He is indeed not Xia Ziqiu.

Lin Haitang gave Gu An a look.

Gu An recalled, stood up suddenly, and suppressed "Xia Ziqiu".

Lord Xia Hou was confused about this sudden situation. He stood up and said with suppressed anger: "Princess, this is..."

Lin Haitang ignored Lord Xia Hou and directly tore off the mask on "Xia Ziqiu's" face.

Lord Xia Hou watched helplessly as his "son" turned into a completely unfamiliar person. His brain was repeatedly hammered in the air, and he felt dizzy. He pointed at the three people in front of him with trembling hands: "This, this, this!"

"Xia Ziqiu" really didn't expect that Lin Haitang and Gu An came for this. He really thought that they were here for a follow-up consultation, but he was not a so-called naive person after all. When Lin Haitang's fingers touched the junction of the mask and real skin intentionally or unintentionally, he realized that something was wrong.

But this was a dead end. Lin Haitang acted quickly. The second after she touched her mask, Gu An stood up and sealed his acupuncture points, so he was completely frozen in place and unable to move.

Lin Haitang and Gu An had never seen this face before.

Gu An removed his jaw and searched among his teeth, but found no poison.

Gu An stood aside and watched this "Xia Ziqiu" with great vigilance. Lin Haitang stepped forward and began to explain the current situation to Lord Xia Hou.

Lin Haitang said: "My Lord, as you can see, he is not your son Xia Ziqiu."

Lin Haitang recounted what happened last night, and Lord Xiahou's expression changed from disbelief at first to excitement and sadness at the end.

Lord Xia Hou stood up, his face filled with anger. He grabbed Xia Ziqiu by the collar and shouted, "Where's my son! Where's my son!"

"Xia Ziqiu" naturally couldn't speak, so Gu An pressed his acupoints, allowing him to make sounds.

Unexpectedly, he didn't seem flustered at all. Instead, he looked at Lord Xia Hou with great interest. After a moment, he sneered and said, "That's enough, you've gone too far."

Lin Haitang and Gu An were shocked. At the same time, Gu An grabbed Lin Haitang's hand and pulled her back a step.

Lord Xiahou stood up, and the expression on his face was no longer as righteous as before, but had become a nonchalant look.

It is very incongruous to see such a scoundrel's look appear on such a righteous face.

"Lord Xia Hou" patted "Xia Ziqiu" lightly on the body, and he regained his body autonomy.

"Lord Xia Hou" had a mocking smile on his face: "Hey, are you two stupid or stupid? You actually came here alone like this? Well, that's fine, it saves me from having to spend more effort."

Gu An protected Lin Haitang firmly behind him, his face calm, his eyes fixed on the two people in front of him, not missing any of their movements.

Lin Haitang was indeed surprised. He never expected that this marquis was also fake.

It’s too late to regret now, I can only think about how to break the deadlock.

Lin Haitang simply called out to "Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" and asked, "Do you know why your great wizard wants to capture me so much?"

The two people opposite were also really shocked. How come this woman didn't look scared at all? After the initial surprise faded away, there was only calmness on her face.

"Lord Xia Hou" snorted with disdain, "I advise you not to waste your time. You won't get anything you want from us."

"Hmm," Lin Haitang nodded and walked out from behind Gu An in a carefree manner, but her hands were still clutching Gu An's clothes, refusing to let go. "So, that means you don't trust your great wizard that much?"

The two people opposite never expected that Lin Haitang would come up with such a twisted logic, and couldn't help but refute: "Huh, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Haitang curled her lips, spread out her left hand, and said, "Look, there's no one around here except the two of us. Oh, and there might be secret guards sent by you two. But it's certain that we'll die. But even so, you two are still very nervous and refuse to say anything, afraid that if you let something slip, I'll turn against you, right?"

"Or rather, you are not completely obedient to the Great Wizard in your hearts. Each of you has your own considerations." Lin Haitang talked nonsense.

Xia Ziqiu couldn't bear to listen any longer and frowned, saying, "You really are too unreasonable."

Lin Haitang laughed and said, "Is this the first day you know I'm being unreasonable?"

"Lord Xia Hou" squinted his chin and looked at Lin Haitang. After a moment, he said, "Can someone like you really be the owner of the spiritual realm?"

Spiritual realm. Lin Haitang and Gu An grasped this key word.

The two people knew very well that the spiritual realm they were talking about was probably space.

Lin Haitang's expression remained impassive as she said, "I know why your great wizard wants to capture me, but I don't understand why you little minions are so desperate. Do you want a piece of the pie in the future? Do you think your wizard will be so kind and generous?"

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" chuckled and said, "So, if we want you, you'll give it to us?"

Lin Haitang raised her eyebrows and smiled: "How do you know? Maybe I will really give it to you."

The two men opposite were skeptical. After exchanging a glance, Xia Ziqiu said, "I heard there's a spiritual spring in the spiritual realm. Drinking it can prolong life and strengthen the body. Can you give me some?"

Lin Haitang actually nodded directly, stretched out his hand, and said, "Okay, go get a water bag, and I'll go in and fill it for you."

Gu An stood aside without saying a word, staring quietly at the two people in front of him. As long as any of them dared to harm Lin Haitang, he would protect Lin Haitang in the first place.

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" looked at each other again, seeing confusion in each other's eyes. Then, "Lord Xia Hou" gave "Xia Ziqiu" a look, and "Xia Ziqiu" nodded almost imperceptibly, took a few steps back, turned around and left.

"Liang, you don't dare to play tricks. Wait, go get the water bag." This "Lord Xia Hou" explained.

Lin Haitang smiled faintly and said nothing.

After a while, "Xia Ziqiu" came over with a water bag and threw it towards Lin Haitang and Gu An, which was caught firmly by Gu An.

Lin Haitang took the water bag from Gu An, looked through it for a second, then raised her head to look at "Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" and said, "Wait."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Haitang and Gu An disappeared out of thin air.

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" were surprised and instantly ran to the place where Lin Haitang and Gu An had just stood. Now there was no one here, not even the air was trembling, but the two living people just disappeared.

When the two looked at each other, they saw excitement and surprise in each other's eyes.

They had never thought that they would witness such a thing. They rubbed their hands excitedly, paced back and forth, and waited anxiously.

In the space, Lin Haitang and Gu An stood by the spiritual spring.

Lin Haitang handed the water bag to Gu An and said, "You fill the spiritual spring water, I'll go get some things."

Gu An frowned slightly and obediently began to drink water.

Lin Haitang went to Wuming's house to get some things that could "save her life".

After a while, Lin Haitang returned to the spiritual spring.

Gu An was rarely dissatisfied and said, "Giving them this water is worse than feeding it to dogs."

Lin Haitang smiled instantly and said, "Of course I know. I won't let them waste my spiritual spring water in vain. If you want to drink it, then leave your life behind."

A moment later, Lin Haitang and Gu An appeared without any warning at the place where they had just disappeared.

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" immediately wanted to step forward to grab it, but were beaten back a step by Gu An.

The two imposters' expressions instantly turned extremely ugly, and they gritted their teeth and said, "Lin Haitang! What do you mean? It was you who said you would give us the spiritual spring water, and it was you who made the dog beside you bite us!"

Lin Haitang's face, which had been slightly smiling, instantly fell. She stared coldly at the two people in front of her and said, "You want some water? Sure, answer a few questions first."

The two impostors obviously no longer believed her and stared at Lin Haitang warily.

Seeing them like this, Lin Haitang nodded and said, "Okay." After that, he unscrewed the wooden stopper of the water bag and pretended to pour out the spiritual spring water inside.

"Hey!" The two impostors screamed, stretched out their hands, and subconsciously stepped forward with their legs.

Seeing them like this, Lin Haitang sneered, put the cork back in, raised the water bag and shook it, saying, "Are you ready to answer my question?"

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" exchanged a glance, confirmed their expressions, nodded secretly, and then turned to Lin Haitang and said, "You ask."

Lin Haitang asked, "Are the real Marquis and the young Marquis still alive?"

"Alive."

"When did you start impersonating them?"

"Eight days ago."

"Besides you two, are there any other people in Dingwu Marquis's mansion who have been impersonated?"

"No."

The two sides asked and answered questions, speaking at a moderate pace.

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" originally thought that Lin Haitang wanted to ask the great wizard, but they didn't expect that she only asked about the situation in the Marquis' Mansion.

"One last question," Lin Haitang asked with a stern expression, staring closely at the two of them. "Is your target this time, me, or the entire Kang Dynasty?"

An autumn breeze blew, moving the somewhat stagnant air.

After a moment, "Lord Xia Hou" replied, "You."

"Lord Xia Hou" thought to himself: The wizard also said, "He who controls the spiritual realm controls the world."

Lin Haitang nodded and held out the water bag: "Come and get it yourself."

"Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu" hesitated for a moment, then slowly moved forward, getting closer and closer to the water bag.

When the two sides were only two meters apart, Lin Haitang quietly crushed a small red pill in his left hand, which hung by his side.

The powder of the red pill quickly spread in an invisible place, and in a moment, it floated to the noses of "Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu".

This pill has no taste and contains white powder, which is colorless and odorless.

The two impostors inhaled a lot of powder with each breath.

Lin Haitang beat the rhythm slowly in her heart: "Six, five, four, three,..."

"Xia Ziqiu's" fingertips were the first to touch the water bag. There was a strange light flashing in his eyes, as if he was excited or crazy.

"Lord Xiahou" was unwilling to be left behind, and instantly grabbed his fingers.

However, at this moment, Lin Haitang's inner countdown reached its final count: "Two, one."

In an instant, "Lord Xia Hou" and "Xia Ziqiu", who were originally fine, suddenly grabbed their own necks with both hands without any warning.

Because they couldn't breathe, their faces turned blue and purple, their eyeballs were covered with terrifying bloodshot and abnormally protruded. If it was night time and there were candles lit around them, these two people would definitely be mistaken for evil spirits coming to take their lives.

Gu An obviously didn't expect this to happen. He frowned and pulled Lin Haitang back a step.

Lin Haitang, on the other hand, looked at the two of them with great interest, pinching her chin, and then simply walked around them in a circle.

Lin Haitang smiled at Gu An, pointed at the two people who had fainted on the ground with their necks pinched, and said, "How is it? Not bad, right? I invented this poison. I named it Six-Point Poison."

"Six o'clock?" Gu An asked back.

"Yes." Lin Haitang nodded and said, "If you are within two meters of me and start counting to six after I open the poison, you will be poisoned. Calling it six poison sounds so unpleasant, so I just counted six."

Gu An was quite speechless and wanted to tell Lin Haitang that six points of poison was also not a nice thing to say.

Lin Haitang looked around and said, "Let's take them to the space, quickly. If anyone else in the mansion sees us, there will be no explanation. I still have something to ask them."

Gu An pointed at the two people on the ground and asked, "Are these two people still alive?"

Lin Haitang shook her head and said, "He's just in suspended animation. He'll wake up in half an hour, but he'll be completely paralyzed and powerless. There's no cure without an antidote."

Gu An nodded, stopped talking, squatted down and tied up the two counterfeiters who had fainted on the ground.

Lin Haitang and Gu An brought the two bastards into the space.

After entering the space, Gu An threw them both to the ground, and Lin Haitang kicked them twice.

Lin Haitang kicked him specifically in the face.

After Lin Haitang finished kicking, Gu An squatted down, groped the face of "Lord Xia Hou", and tore off his mask.
