Lin Xiaofan had not yet reacted when a thug swung a punch at him! He instinctively sidestepped to avoid it, only to see Zhuge Liang flick his feather fan and knock the assailant down to the ground. 0
 
"My Lord, these thugs are not right," Zhuge Liang whispered. "They carry a strange fragrance." 0
 
Lin Xiaofan took a careful sniff and indeed detected a faintly sweet and cloying scent—like some peculiar spice that, if inhaled for too long, could make one feel dizzy. 0
 
【Warning! Hallucinogenic substances detected! Immediate evacuation recommended!】 0
 
Realizing the danger, Lin Xiaofan grabbed a few dock workers and, under Zhuge Liang's protection, quickly broke through the encirclement. 0
 
On their way back to the residence, Lin Xiaofan and Zhuge Liang deliberately took several back alleys. Only after confirming they had shaken off their pursuers did they slow their pace. 0
 
"Sir, what was that fragrance?" Lin Xiaofan asked. 0
 
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be 'Mihunxiang' from the Western Regions," Zhuge Liang replied, his brow furrowed. "When used in conjunction with 'Requiem,' it can trap people in illusions." 0
 
A chill ran down Lin Xiaofan's spine—did this mean that the Crown Prince's men were already using Moro Cult methods to control court officials? 0
 
While he was deep in thought, a singing woman suddenly bumped into him. She looked up with a delicate face and quickly stuffed a handkerchief into Lin Xiaofan's sleeve, whispering, "The General is still alive." 0
 
Lin Xiaofan's pupils constricted; just as he was about to ask more, the woman melted into the crowd and vanished. 0
 
He unfolded the handkerchief, which was embroidered with a pattern of a desert sunset. In one corner, there was a tiny "Lin" stitched with fine thread. 0
 
"This is..." 0
 
"The General's mark," Zhuge Liang said, his voice trembling. "My Lord, your father may truly still be alive!" 0
 
Late at night, Lin Xiaofan tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. The information he had gathered today was overwhelming—the 'Requiem' in the account books, the Mihunxiang on the thugs, and the handkerchief from the mysterious woman... 0
 
"System, I still have one summoning opportunity left, right?" 0
 
【Yes, host currently possesses 【Famous General Summoning Card】 x1】 0
 
Without hesitation, Lin Xiaofan used the card. A flash of golden light appeared as a tall figure gradually took shape—however, when the light faded, standing in his room was... a handsome young man dressed in a pink skirt?! 0
 
The young man had sharp brows and bright eyes; his posture was as upright as a pine tree. Yet at that moment, his handsome face was as dark as coal. He kicked over a screen and roared: 0
 
"Which bastard changed my armor into women's clothing?!" 0
 
Lin Xiaofan stared in shock. "Huo... Huo Qubing?!" 0
 
Huo Qubing turned with killing intent and upon seeing Lin Xiaofan immediately knelt on one knee. "This subordinate Huo Qubing pays respects to my Lord!"—but paired with his flowing pink skirt, the scene was undeniably bizarre. 0
 
【System prompt: This is a special skin 【Female Costume Limited Edition】; effect: Taunt value +200%】 0
 
 
Lin Xiaofan covered his face, "System, are you serious...?" 0
 
Huo Qubing was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged, "My Lord, I request to change my attire immediately!" 0
 
"Well... I'm afraid that's not possible for now..." 0
 
"In that case, I request to take my own life!" Huo Qubing gritted his teeth, "How can I go into battle dressed like this!" 0
 
Lin Xiaofan could only respond with silence. 0
 
Huo Qubing clenched the hem of his skirt, his knuckles turning white, and his handsome face was dark enough to drip ink. "My Lord, I request—" 0
 
"No." Lin Xiaofan interrupted directly, "The system said this outfit has special effects and cannot be changed for the time being." 0
 
"Then I request to stay behind closed doors!" Huo Qubing gritted his teeth, "If anyone sees me like this, my lifetime of reputation—" 0
 
"General, you are mistaken." Zhuge Liang entered with a swaying fan, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth. "In warfare, deception is key. Your current attire is precisely an unexpected advantage." 0
 
"Zhuge Kongming!" Huo Qubing glared at him, "You can stand there and talk without feeling any pain!" 0
