C101

102.

Time flew, and the sun was struggling in the west. Every day passed, and every year, it would return. It was tireless, and it would never give up. The sky was not yet dark, and the sky was dim and yellow. Everything was hazy, and it was also a sign of the return of the pedestrians.

Lin Jin brought Liu Shuishui back to his house happily. He had a great harvest today, so he definitely wanted to drink a few cups of wine with Chu Ming.

After he and Liu Shui finished packing, they walked into the house, but there were not many people there. Normally, at this time of the day, the smell was already strong, the steaming hot dishes were all properly placed on the table, but today, not to mention the food, even the shadow of a person was nowhere to be seen. The kitchen was empty.

The atmosphere was a little strange? On the way back, there was no one in the empty space. The children were also nowhere to be found. Could it be that all of them had gathered together?

Lin Jin frowned. He walked up to Lin Xue'er's room and knocked on the door.

The room was very quiet, not a single sound could be heard.

Liu Shuishui walked over and opened the door of Lin Jin's room. When the two saw Lin Xue'er on the bed, they thought she had fallen asleep.

"What's the matter with this child today?" Liu Shui felt strange and looked at Lin Jin.

Lin Jin shook his head and said, "If you ask me, who should I ask?"

Liu Shui furrowed his brows. He walked into the house and stopped in front of Lin Xue'er's bed. He patted her and whispered, "Xue'er, Xue'er?"

Lin Xue'er vaguely heard the sound and opened her eyes. When she turned around, she saw Liu Shui, and Lin Jin was standing beside her. She gritted her teeth and did not say anything.

Lin Jin asked, "What happened? Is he sick? "

Lin Xue'er shook her head.

Liu Shui stretched out his hand to look at Lin Xue'er's forehead. Finding nothing wrong, he asked, "What's wrong, tell me."

Lin Xue'er sat up and paused for a moment before saying, "The officials are here today."

"People from the government?" Lin Jin's frown deepened as he asked, "Why are they here? At least Zhao Ba Yi from the Zhao Family Village should be here, right? "

Lin Xue'er nodded. "He came as well."

"Why?" Liu Shui was puzzled.

"Today, they came here. They said that Chu Ming assassinated that person called the Azure Province's Marquis, Liu Ming right? They said that it was a huge crime and that's why they took him away." Lin Xue'er swallowed her saliva. She felt that her roar had become somewhat obstructed.

Lin Jin sighed, "So that's how it is."

In fact, Lin Jin already knew that Chu Ming must have been injured, or else he wouldn't be lying in the water and drifting to this remote Haikou village. He must have done something, and just a few days ago he had attacked the eight dogs of the Zhao Family.

Liu Shuishui also seemed a little anxious on the side. Although she didn't know Chu Ming very well, but after a few days, she found out that he was quite a good person. He even went on a rampage for the village and was caught like this, causing her to feel depressed.

Lin Jin thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either, but with the young man's martial arts skills, those few people shouldn't be able to easily capture him."

Lin Jin looked at Lin Xue'er as he spoke.

Lin Xue'er shook her head and said, "He left voluntarily with them."

Liu Shui said in surprise, "Why is that so?"

"Zhao Bayi and that county magistrate were a bunch of people. They threatened Chu Ming with the lives of the villagers. That idiot tried to force himself, so he voluntarily captured them." Lin Xue'er sighed.

Liu Shui patted Lin Xue'er's head and consoled her, "There will be a way, there will be a way. Don't be careful."

"Who's being careful of that idiot?" Lin Xue'er seemed a little angry as she said, "It'd be better if we captured that kind of person!"

"You are a sharp tongued person with a rotten heart." Liu Shuishui chuckled. Then, she looked at Lin Jin and said, "Think of a way."

Lin Jin took a deep breath and spat it out. "Let me think."

"Right, where's Er Wazi?"

Lin Xue'er came back to her senses and said, "He ran into the forest to look for Da Tong."

"Those two kids are very stubborn. They are small fries, so they might cause some trouble. Liu Shui, go and bring them back. Don't let them run around." Lin Jin said.

Liu Shui nodded and quickly left the house, running into the forest.

Only Lin Xue'er and Lin Jin were left in the room. Lin Jin turned around and leaned against the wall as he pondered over this. Lin Xue'er, on the other hand, had a deathly pale mind and didn't know what to do.

After a long time, a sound suddenly came from outside the house. There were a lot of footsteps. It seemed like a lot of people had come. Lin Jin quickly walked out and happened to run into a large group of male villagers. He saw that each of them was carrying a wooden stick and a shovel, looking to be in a hurry.

Lin Jin did not understand and when he saw them, he asked, "What's wrong with everyone here? What are you doing with these things? "

The leader said: "When those people from the government came to capture Brother Chu Ming, we cowered, and no one went up to fight back. Later on, after thinking about it, we all felt that it was too much of a waste for Brother Chu Ming, because he did so many things for our village and didn't want to implicate us and get taken away by that stinky magistrate and Zhao Bayi. We all felt very ashamed, so we came here to find Brother Lin, and we went to save Brother Chu Ming."

When Lin Jin heard this, he hurriedly said, "No, this young man did this all because he didn't want to implicate the village and everyone else. Not only did you fail to live up to his intentions, you even gave up the lives of the village and family members. You absolutely cannot do this, you can't be rash!"

Lin Li sighed and said, "Then what should we do?"

The group of people behind him were also whispering to each other anxiously.

Lin Jin said, "Anyway, this method is definitely not working. Besides, the government must be keeping a tight hand. If you go, you will only be like a wolf entering the mouth of a tiger. You won't be able to come back."

The group of villagers were completely lost in thought.

Lin Jin paused for a moment before saying, "You two can go back first. I will think of a way to save Brother Chu Ming, so go back first."

"But ?" Everyone hesitated.

"Go back, I, Lin Jin, promise to save that young man." Lin Jin vowed.

Everyone had a look of disbelief on their faces.

Lin Jin shook his head and said, "Listen to me. Don't act recklessly. Just believe me once. Why would I lie to you?"

The group of people looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

Lin Li took the lead and said, "Brother Lin, do you have any ideas? Say it so that everyone can help you. "

Lin Jin waved his hand and said, "There's no need, there's no need. I'm fine by myself. Sometimes, it's not good to have too many people."

"This ?"

Lin Jin helplessly said, "I'll be counting on everyone."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Li finally came to a compromise. After all, Lin Jin was the number one person in the village and he was also very clean when it came to doing things.

"Alright then, we'll head back first. If you need our help, you have to say it, or else we won't feel at ease at all."

Lin Jin smiled and nodded.

Finally, the villagers slowly left Lin Jin's house. One by one, they walked towards their own homes, accompanied by the dark sky, devoid of the moon or the stars. It was extremely dark.

Lin Jin sighed and shook his head, "These people."

Lin Xue'er walked out of the house and asked Lin Jin, "Father, what do you plan to do?"

"There is a way to save him, but ?" Lin Jin looked at Lin Xue'er and said, "He can't stay in the village any longer."

"Why?!" Lin Xue'er asked excitedly.

"Firstly, he didn't want to come back himself, and I was afraid that he wouldn't come back, mainly because I was afraid that it would implicate the village. Secondly, for the safety of the village and the villagers, he really couldn't come back. Lin Jin slowly said as he raised his head to look at the ceiling.

"?" Lin Xue'er didn't know what to say.

She had not been with Chu Ming for long, but the feeling she got from that person was very special. Every word they spoke and every action they took was noticed by Lin Xue'er, and even when she was drunk that day, she would have unconsciously let Chu Ming take her chastity. Her actions didn't mean that she really liked Chu Ming, but at least she started to care about him, and she didn't know why, but her heart started to throb when she saw him.
