Chapter 622: I let you pretend, now you’re slapped in the face.

Lin Feng did not say much about this, but just stood aside quietly. In all kinds of adventures in the past, most of the time it was Paimon and Sora who rushed to the front, actively participated in various affairs, and made the most efforts, while he was often just a bystander. As for whether to agree to help, Lin Feng felt that it mainly depended on the decision of Paimon and Sora, and in most cases he could only play a supporting role. At this moment, he just silently observed the development of the situation. His keen intuition told him that things did not seem as simple as they seemed. He was secretly alert and ready to help when necessary.

Seeing that the two agreed without hesitation, and Lin Feng did not show any obvious opposition, Hiiragi Shinsuke immediately understood the approximate distribution of power among the three. He showed a satisfied smile on his face, which seemed to hide a subtle calculation, and then he said directly, "Haha, that's good. In this case..." Hiiragi Shinsuke deliberately paused, his eyes flickering slightly, as if he was carefully thinking about what kind of task to assign to the few people, "Qingxin, you know, the plant that often grows on the top of Liyue Mountain." Hiiragi Shinsuke's eyes swept across the faces of the three people one by one, observing their reactions.

When Paimon heard Hiiragi Shinsuke mention Qingxin, he nodded immediately, with a puzzled light in his eyes, "I know, we have picked it before, do we have to go back to Liyue?" Paimon asked the second half of the sentence with a puzzled tone. After all, Hiiragi Shinsuke suddenly mentioned Qingxin at this critical moment, which was really confusing. Paimon secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that this Kanjo Bugyo really just wanted them to go to Liyue just to pick a few Qingxin? This is too unreasonable, there must be another hidden reason.

After hearing what Paimon said, Hiiragi Shinsuke nodded slowly and said calmly, "Well, can you pick 300 fresh Qingxin for me? They should be the ones that have just been picked." Hiiragi Shinsuke's tone was as calm as if he was stating something very ordinary, but his words surprised the three people present. 300 fresh Qingxin, this is not a small number, and they must be picked from the top of Liyue Mountain, which is almost an impossible task. You know, the journey from Inazuma to Liyue is long, and it takes a lot of time and energy to go back and forth, not to mention finding a sufficient number of Qingxin on the top of Liyue Mountain and ensuring that they remain fresh during the long-distance transportation, which is undoubtedly a very challenging task.

After hearing what Shinsuke Hiiragi said, Paimon's eyes widened and he looked at Sora with a puzzled look, his eyes full of disbelief, "Did I hear something wrong?" Paimon couldn't believe her ears. She couldn't understand why Shinsuke Hiiragi would make such a seemingly unreasonable request. Not only did this mean that they had to travel a long distance back to Liyue, but they also had to find and pick 300 Qingxin in a short period of time, which was almost an impossible task. If they really did what Shinsuke Hiiragi asked, they didn't know how much time and energy it would take, and it might even delay their original itinerary.

Hearing Paimon's words, Kong also frowned slightly. This task was obviously a bit difficult. Not to mention that it would take a lot of time and energy to go back and forth to Liyue, even if they could successfully reach the top of Liyue Mountain, it would be too difficult to accurately find 300 Qingxin among the many plants and ensure that they remained fresh during the transportation back to Inazuma. Kong thought to himself that Hiiragi Shinsuke's request was probably not just for Qingxin, but there was a deeper purpose behind it. Maybe this was a test, or maybe he deliberately set up an obstacle so that they wouldn't leave the island easily. Kong felt a little wary and began to think about how to deal with this difficult task.

Seeing that Kong and Paimeng were both embarrassed, Lin Feng immediately waved his hands and said in a relaxed manner, "It's just three hundred Qingxins, it's not a big deal." After that, Lin Feng closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and moved his mind. A layer of light blue light appeared around him, and the light was soft and mysterious, as if it came from another world. As the light flickered, Lin Feng took out the Qingxins he had picked during his adventure in Liyue a few years ago from his sea of ​​consciousness. Since Lin Feng usually has a strong interest in various rare plants, he would pick them when he saw what he liked, so he didn't count carefully how many he picked, but the number must be no less than three hundred.

As for how to preserve these Pure Hearts, it was not difficult for Lin Feng, who had mastered the water elemental power. He skillfully used the water elemental power to wrap these Pure Hearts, forming a stable protective space, and then placed them in his sea of ​​consciousness. Under the special environment of the sea of ​​consciousness and the long-term nourishment of the water elemental power, these Pure Hearts have always maintained a good state, without any signs of withering or corruption.

In the blink of an eye, a bunch of vibrant Qingxin appeared out of thin air on the table. Each one was fresh and tender, exuding a fresh fragrance, as if it had just been picked from the top of Liyue Mountain. The other three people saw this scene, and their eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief, staring straight at everything happening in front of them. After all, this scene was too bizarre. So many Qingxin appeared in front of them without any signs, and each one was in the perfect state of just being picked. It was really incredible, as if they were in a fantasy dream.

Shinsuke Hiiragi was stunned for a moment when he saw the sudden scene in front of him, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He opened his mouth in surprise, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence, "Ah? Is that so? Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be so simple for you. In fact, I have another thing I want you to help with." After that, he didn't wait for the few people to make any response, and said directly, "Excuse me, there are some letters that need to be delivered on the island. I wonder if you three can help?" Shinsuke Hiiragi's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible cunning, as if behind this seemingly ordinary request, there was an unknown chess game hidden, and he was cleverly laying out the layout, trying to lead the few people into it.

Paimon saw that the Qingxin issue was resolved so quickly, and now a new task popped up. Although he was a little reluctant, he thought that he had already agreed to help, and what could be more difficult than running from Inazuma to Liyue to pick more than 300 Qingxin plants?
