The city of Luoma surrounded the two hundred township brave regiments, and Lin Zonghai, the commander of the township camp, learned that the head of the family had crossed the stream and hurried over to meet him. Lin Zonghai also arrived only a moment earlier than Lin Tingxun, and he came in a hurry, the sweat on his forehead had not yet dried, and he did not understand the situation.

People put a knife on the neck of the second son, and Lin Zonghai didn't dare to let Xiang Yong forcibly go up to rob people.

At this time, more than a dozen dead wind lanterns were hung inside and outside the Luoma City, the night sky and the moonlight were also bright, the Luoma City was as bright as day, and no one had to be driven out, and there were only two teams of township soldiers who stayed in the wooden fence to surround them, and they saw Lin Tingxun coming over and made a way.

Lin Tingxun's face was wrinkled, but his eyes were bright, and he walked closer surrounded by guards and stared at Lin Tie: "You let people go, if there is anything, tell me, don't let outsiders see jokes." ”

Of course, Lin Jian would not let Lin Xuzong go easily, and said: "I got out of trouble from Baisha County, I stayed in Tinghu Lake with the boat for a few days, this Wu Ye was selling horses in Tinghu at that time, I think the township camp is short of horses, why not invite him to sell horses to Lindu?" But unexpectedly, I went to the county to help today, and when I came back, I heard that Wu Ye gave Zhao Neng, a brute, and led people to surround and force him to buy and sell in the mule and horse market. I haven't settled accounts with him about Baisha County, and he treats the guests I invited to help the Lin family like this? Even if I hadn't invited Shanglindu, when would the Lin family force the traders to come to Shanglindu? The rumor will come out, doesn't it ruin the reputation of Shanglindu Grass City - how can this kind of minion be polite to him? Even if he is still in front of the head of the house, I will also pull him to the head of the house to ask what is going on, not to mention that he has already sent the head of the house away. When I was teaching Zhao Neng, the second son came to me and punched me in the face, I narrowly got out of the way, and the second son sat down in the horse manure and became angry, and made people want to tie us up and sink into the river, and insulted my deceased father and mother, and threatened to dig up my ancestral grave. After two tribulations of life and death in Baisha County, I understood a truth, poverty and poverty cannot be bullied, and I am no longer the cowardly child I was before I went to Baisha County. I don't want to do anything, I'm a child of the Lin family, where can I kill each other? Even if I kill the second son, what can I please for? I just need my second son to apologize at the grave of my deceased parents......"

Lin Lian's words were murderous and majestic, no one present had experienced life and death, not to mention two calamities in a short period of time, so it was impossible to know how much a person's temperament would change after they experienced life and death, in short, they knew that Lin Tie in front of them was no longer the cowardly Lin Xiucai he used to be. Even if he has no power to restrain the chicken, he dares to make the second person of the Lin family kneel in front of him majestically and threaten life and death with a knife on his neck, this courage, no one present dares to say that he has it.

Lin Tingxun squinted at Lin Tie, and really saw that Lin Tie who came back this time was reborn and different from the past, and he kept wondering why he refused the Nanxi Plateau Mansion yesterday, it turned out that he didn't look down on that bit in his heart. His courage may also be said to be crazy, but his words are interlocking, holding the fundamental interests of the Lin family and keeping up with Lin Du's righteousness, and forcing himself to punish Zhao Neng, the son of Xuzong and his family, in public, and he established his prestige in public, but he didn't expect the Baisha County robbery to make the Lin family have a character. As for whether he is a loyal hound or an ambitious wolf, it is really difficult to say now.

After Lin Tingxun looked at his son Zhao Neng hiding the crowd, he beckoned him to come over, slapped him with a "snap", and shouted in a deep voice: "Kneel, who asked you to buy and sell in the mule and horse market, and break the rules of my Lin family?" ”

Only then did Zhao Neng know that the few outsiders who sold horses were actually invited by Lin Tie, and thought to himself, didn't these outsiders just insist that those horses were bought by Jiangning merchants? Even if everyone knew that he was sent by the second son, Zhao Neng also knew that he would not admit it at this time, otherwise the second son might really be forced to kowtow to the grave of Lin Lian's family to apologize.

Zhao Neng didn't dare to resist and knelt down.

Lin Tingxun commanded his side in a gloomy voice: "Tie him up and send him to the ancestral hall to wait for the fate." ”

After someone took the rope and dragged Zhao Neng down, Lin Tingxun looked at Lin Tie again, and didn't seem to see that Lin Bin's knife was still on his son's neck, and said with great relief: "The Lin family is lacking a responsible child like you, I think your parents will also feel relieved under Jiuquan, since your mind is on the Lin family, and everything is considered for the Lin family, why did you refuse my kindness yesterday?" This is a disappointment for me. ”

The people next to him took a cold breath, thinking that the old lord was really powerful, and it turned out that he had long valued Lin Xiucai.

Lin Jian handed the knife to Zhou Pu, he let go of his hand, and the fact that Lin Xuzong was still under Zhou Pu's control. He said to Lin Tingxun, who was already looking old and still hiding a sharp edge in his words: "The head of the family values it. The ancients said: 'If you don't make an inch, you don't have an inch', Lin Jian reads the articles of the sages, this truth is still clear, I haven't made a merit in the Lin family, how dare I be rewarded? When Lin Jian was a child, he studied in the clan and studied righteousness, and when he grew up, he also had to be funded by the clan to go to Jiangning to participate in the township test. ”

The villagers in Shanglin and the clan of the Lin family all gathered around, and the three clan elders also came one after another, came over to reprimand Lin Jian as usual, and listened to the explanation of the reason, all saying that Zhao Neng should be punished, but not talking about the problem of the second son, Lin Xuzong. Several other wealthy families in the upper and lower forests listened to the excitement here, and although they couldn't put schadenfreude on their faces, they all sent people over to watch. Lin Tingxun is old and frail, seeing that he doesn't have a few years to live, the eldest son Lin Xuwen attacked Menyin to serve in Yanjing, and the youngest son is the drooping hair*, if the second son Lin Xuzong has an accident and loses his life, the Lin family will be really lively.

Lin Tingxun seemed to be thinking about Lin Bin's words, and glanced at his seventh lady out of the corner of his eye, seeing the meaning in her eyes, his brows frowned slightly, seeing that Lin Bin's composure and deep scheming at this time were far beyond his expectations, he thought to himself how could he be willing to endure today's humiliation in the continuation of the sect, and how could this erector be willing to send it to the continuation sect in the future? If he is allowed to be full-fledged, it may become a disaster for the Lin family. Lin Tingxun really felt that he was old, thinking that he was in the prime of life, and there was such a number one person in the clan, it was too late to be happy, how could he have such worries? But at the moment, in front of the Xiangyong clan and other wealthy clans, it is impossible to deal with this matter unfairly.

Lin Tingxun frowned and looked at his second son Lin Xuzong, who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "You will be the head of the family in the future, not to mention that Lin Lian is famous, even if you are an ordinary member of the clan, you have to give enough respect, you are too disappointing to me......" turned his head and instructed the people around him, "Tie up the second young master and send it to the ancestral hall!" "Everyone around them is looking at each other, and the tip of the knife is still against the neck of the second son, why does the master want them to go up and tie up people?

Zhao Hu recognized the machine quickly, and when he saw the look in Lin Xuan's hand, he hurriedly took the rope and walked over to tie the second son, Lin Xuzong, with his hands behind him, tied it firmly, and directly pulled the second son to walk outside the wooden fence, in fact, he still controlled the second son in his own hands. No one knew that he had already followed Lin Tie with an iron heart, and even the second son, Lin Xuzong, was quite cooperative with him to tie himself up.

Lin Jingchang could guess one or two, he hesitated for a moment, and did not go over to help Zhao Hu escort the second son to the ancestral hall.

Here Zhou Pu also returned the knife to Lin Tie and returned it to the sheath, but the crow Wu Qi and the two Liuma Kou who pretended to be foreign horse dealers did not need to pretend to have any posture with Lin Tingxun, still vigilantly took the knife in his hand, and said to Lin Tie: "We believe that Lin Xiucai only came to Lindu, but today it seems that Lin Xiucai alone is not enough to facilitate this deal, so let's leave first." If there is any difficulty in the future, give a letter...... We only led six horses away, Lin Xiucai made a bad deal with the clansmen for our affairs, and the remaining ten horses were left in the hope of alleviating the guilt in our hearts. ”

Others were amazed, thinking that Lin Xiucai had such a great ability to make friends with such high-rollers, you must know that the second son offered more than ten horses to three thousand taels, and people refused to sell them, so he didn't say a word at this time, but gave ten horses to Lin Xiucai for nothing.

Lin Jian arched his hand towards the crow Wu Qi, and did not stay.

Lin Tingxun was not confused at all in his heart, what these three people said was undoubtedly a deep connection with Lin Bin, and at this time, they could give away ten good horses without hesitation, if Lin Tie encountered any difficulties in the future, they would never stand idly by, this could be regarded as a threat in disguise.

Lin Tingxun couldn't see the foundation of these three foreign horse dealers, just looking at the horses sold by the other party and the wealthy faction who made the shot, he knew that the other party was not a character to be messed with. In any case, it is not right to continue to buy and sell, and I can't understand what happened to Lin Jian for the rest of his life.

Lin Tingxun waved and motioned to Xiangyong to get out of the way, even if the three outsiders had no background, there was no reason for Shanglindu to leave them behind, watching the three outsiders each ride a horse and lead the horse and disappear into the night, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves echoing.

The sound of horses' hooves completely disappeared into the night, and everyone came back to their senses, the mastermind of today's trouble, Lin Lian, was still standing in the mule and horse market, and they didn't know how the Lin family mainly cleaned up this thorn.

Lin Tie did not hesitate, he should be hard when it should be hard, and soft when it should be soft, and he couldn't let Lin Tingxun find an excuse to seize the initiative, he held the saber in front of Lin Tingxun and said: "Even if there are many excuses, Lin Tie is difficult to get rid of the loss of impulse, and it is not even better to alarm the head of the family, even if the head of the family does not punish Lin Tie, Lin Tie will have no shame to be the son of the Lin family again, and he will no longer have the shame to stay in Shiliang County...... If the head of the family feels that Lin Bin's sin is unforgivable, this knife is willing to be offered by Lin Bin. ”

Lin Tingxun doubted that if he really wanted to get the knife, would he hold the knife to this vertical like Xuzong, and although Lin Tie returned the knife to the sheath, Zhou Pu was still standing at a distance with the knife in his hand.

Lin Tingxun said: "It's okay for you to leave Shanglin temporarily, you don't need to be expelled from the sect, you still have to remember when you leave Shanglin: the Lin family exists for a day, you are still a child of the Lin family......" Lin Tie's sharp edge revealed today shocked him, Lin Tingxun was worried that Lin Tie would stay in Shanglin, and when he was full of wings and could not be contained, he was afraid that he would backfire on the sect, since he was leaving, let him soar outside the sea and sky, he would never forget that he was a child of the Lin family.
