The Scourge of Rebirth

Chapter 422
The clerk replied honestly: "His name is Xiaotian, and he was kidnapped secretly by our shopkeeper. We don't know the exact origin, but seeing that this kid is white and tender, he must have a good background."

Hearing this, Yang Lin took off the rags from the boy Xiaotian's mouth one by one, and after the boy opened his mouth and coughed a few times, he hurriedly asked for help: "Hero, please help me, my father is The local county magistrate, as long as you are willing to save me, my father will definitely reward me a lot afterward."

Yang Lin couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this. You must know that although the county magistrate is not a high-ranking official in other places, but in this small county like where he is now, he exists like an emperor. Dare to kidnap and kill, if the matter is exposed, not only the shopkeeper himself will kill the whole family, but many people will be implicated.

Yang Lin sighed a few words in his heart, and then made the young Xiaotian faint with his fingers. Immediately afterwards, Yang Lin's face became gloomy, and he looked at the two guys coldly.

Seeing Yang Lin's expression, the two guys knew that something was going to happen. Before they could ask for mercy, Yang Lin had already slapped them twice quickly, killing them neatly.

After killing the two guys, Yang Lin picked up Xiaotian, left the inn without anyone noticing, and went directly to the county government.

Put Xiaotian outside the gate of the county government office, and then Yang Lin slammed on the gate, and after a while, the sound of footsteps came.

Yang Lin hid quietly in the dark, and saw two middle-aged yamen servants appear after the gate was opened. The yamen servants were surprised and happy when they saw Xiaotian lying at the gate. They didn't expect that the lord's precious son had been missing for several days. , To come back here suddenly, this kind of thing is a great thing, and it must be reported to the adults immediately.

Not long after, the county magistrate who got the news rushed to see his son. For a while, the county government, which was very quiet a moment ago, became extremely noisy, and Yang Lin, who had witnessed all this, quietly left.

Yang Lin returned to the inn, but the shopkeeper of the inn hadn't found out that his clerk was dead, so Yang Lin smiled secretly, then went back to his room and continued to sleep.

Just as Yang Lin expected, early in the morning, there were noisy sounds from below the inn, and then, under the leadership of the county magistrate, a group of yamen servants broke in without saying a word, and quickly put the people in the inn to death. Got it under control.

Yang Lin and some residents gathered together, unlike others who were flustered, Yang Lin was very calm.

At this time, the innkeeper and a few clerks have been tied up by the government officials. The county magistrate is a half-old man in his early fifties, and Xiaotian, who was rescued by Yang Lin yesterday, is now standing beside the county magistrate. The shopkeeper complained to his father: "Father, they are the ones who kidnapped the boy, and they were going to kill him. If a knight hadn't appeared at the last moment and rescued the boy, the boy might be dead now."

Hearing this, the county magistrate was furious. He glared at the shopkeeper, gritted his teeth and said, "What a troublemaker, you are so bold that you even dare to touch the official's son. It's really unreasonable. Come on, who ordered you?" , with you as a small innkeeper, you definitely don't have the guts.

Yang Lin couldn't help secretly applauding, the county magistrate is a sensible person, he has figured out the matter so quickly, his idea coincides with Yang Lin's.

But the shopkeeper was quite stubborn, he said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, since it has fallen into your hands, you can kill or cut it casually. I did all the things alone, and there is no behind-the-scenes instigator."

Hearing the words, the county magistrate naturally wouldn't believe this, he said in a deep voice: "I advise you to be honest, if you are willing to cooperate obediently, then it is not impossible for you to be punished lightly, your own life is the last The most important thing is not to die for others, such behavior is not worth it."

The shopkeeper looked disdainful, and he scolded: "You dog officer, I really don't know that you are cruel and merciless, trying to trick me into telling the truth, don't even think about it, I don't know anything, and I have nothing to say."

Seeing this, the county magistrate immediately said coldly: "Okay, it's a tough bone, but I don't believe it. In the face of the torture by the county government, you will still refuse to let go. Come, someone, take the prisoner back to the Yamen, my official Interrogate them yourself."

A group of yamen servants naturally nodded to accept the order, and then brought the shopkeeper and the buddy with them, ready to go back to the yamen.

The county magistrate was also planning to leave with him, but he suddenly found that his precious son was standing still, with no intention of leaving?
The county magistrate immediately looked at his son, and followed his son's line of sight to see Yang Lin.

The county magistrate asked in confusion: Xiaotian, what's wrong with you, why do you keep looking at this person.

Immediately afterwards, the county magistrate seemed to think of something?He was startled immediately, and then hurriedly asked: "Son, tell my father honestly, is this person also responsible for kidnapping you? Don't be afraid, if that's the case, my father will never let him go."

Xiao Tian hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, no, he is not, this hero is the child's savior, and he is not a bad person."

The county magistrate was startled again when he heard the words. The next moment, he held Xiaotian's hand, walked quickly to Yang Lin, and said with a smile: "This young man, listen to my son, you saved him. , dare I ask if it is like this?"

Yang Lin didn't deny it either, he said flatly: "It's just a little effort, don't worry about it."

Seeing that Zhang Ting admitted it, the county magistrate's attitude became a little better. He hurriedly invited: "Such a kindness, I will naturally repay it well. Please young man follow me back to the yamen, and let me treat you well."

Yang Lin shook his head and refused: No need, I won't stay here any longer, I'll leave later.

Hearing this, the county magistrate was immediately disappointed, but since Yang Lin was unwilling, he couldn't force it, and immediately thanked him sincerely: "I don't want to say thank you for the great kindness of the young hero. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Yang Lin said indifferently: "You don't need to be so polite. In fact, it's really easy for me at this time. It doesn't take much effort. I really don't need to take it to heart."

The county magistrate didn't say much anymore, just nodded heavily, and then prepared to take his son away.

Before leaving Qian, Xiaotian solemnly bowed to Yang Lin, and then said solemnly: "Hero, Xiaotian will remember the life-saving grace for life, and hope to see you again in the future."

Yang Lin nodded with a smile, then watched their father and son leave slowly.

Since the shopkeeper of the inn committed such a serious crime, the inn naturally couldn't be opened any longer. The servants invited the guests out, and then sealed up the entire inn.

After Yang Lin left the inn, he went to the market to sell the ox cart, and then spent a lot of effort to buy a horse with a lot of money. Since this is a small place, naturally there won't be any good horses, but even if Even inferior horses are much better than cattle.

After such a busy work, more than an hour has passed without knowing it. When Yang Lin led the horse out of the market, he saw an extremely lively scene on the street. Every citizen was wearing brand-new clothes solemnly, They headed out of the city in an orderly manner.

Yang Lin was also preparing to leave the city at this time. With so many people blocking him, Yang Lin had no choice but to obediently follow behind the team and move slowly towards the city outside the city.

Yang Lin took a look at the crowd in front, and found that all of them were excited, and many of them were even extremely enthusiastic, as if they were really gods who were going to meet.

Seeing this scene, Yang Lin couldn't help but secretly shook his head, secretly thinking that Lao Shizi's mother and mother had caused a lot of harm to them, and many people seemed to be fooling themselves, such a situation really made Yang Lin sigh.

At this time, after seeing Yang Lin's appearance, a scholar next to him said, "Brother, looking at your appearance, you must also be very disgusted with the actions of these foolish people."

Yang Lin turned his head to look at the scholar, and said calmly: "Everyone has their own way of life. If these people think they are happy, then why do outsiders care about them so much? Anyway, their fate is their own. What will happen in the end is what they asked for, why should us outsiders meddle in our own business?"

Hearing Yang Lin's words, the scholar frowned immediately, and said in disapproval: "Brother, you are wrong, you must know that as a righteous person, how can you just watch They have fallen into evil ways, we should help them."

Yang Lin looked at the scholar in puzzlement, and then said: "Your words are too serious. Although these common people's actions are somewhat inappropriate, they are definitely not to the point of falling into the devil's way. I don't think you should worry about it." Well, just be a bystander honestly.

Hearing Yang Lin's selfish words, the scholar immediately became angry, and he said angrily: "You are such a villain for saying such selfish words, I misread you, I thought you were He is a righteous person, but it turns out that is not the case?"

Yang Lin was a little puzzled. He felt that he was right. Why was this scholar so angry? I really don't understand what these scholars are thinking.As the saying goes, it's not speculative, and since the two of them can't talk together, Yang Lin naturally doesn't pay attention to the scholar anymore, and immediately ignores the other party intuitively, looking at the scene around him.

After the scholar gave Yang Lin a hard look, he shook his sleeves and left. He was really pissed off by Yang Lin.

In the following time, nothing unexpected happened. Yang Lin followed the crowd towards the outside of the city. Although he moved slowly, he was getting closer and closer to the outside of the city. If so, then in another two quarters of an hour, he will be able to leave the city. After he leaves, even if the flood here is raging, that is none of his business.

However, things are often unexpected, and Yang Lin's plans are always disrupted by some unexpected events, and this time is no exception.
