Lin Family In the yard.
Lin Xiangnan looked calmly at the soldiers rushing into the door, and stretched out his hands to protect his wife Fu Yunxin behind him.
"I told you, although I taught at the home of the previous Commander-in-Chief of Public Security Xidong, I have always done my job honestly and never done anything untoward. You can check it if you want. What's the point of barging into my home directly like this!?"
Several soldiers wearing gray-brown military uniforms, holding long guns in their hands, walked around the yard a few times, and then set their sights in the direction of the inner room. The leader frowned slightly.
"Mr. Lin, someone reported that you secretly assisted in the embezzlement of drought funds.."
"You can check as much as you want!" Lin Xiangnan stepped out of the way with a stern look on his face, "If you can find all the relevant evidence inside, I will let you handle it!" The leading soldier's eyes changed slightly and he was about to give an order.
Bang.
Suddenly, the backyard door was knocked open by several people, and the door opened even wider.
"Mom and Dad, what happened!?"
A slightly cold voice came from behind the crowd.
Several people turned around quickly, and several soldiers shuddered slightly at the same time. They clenched their spears slightly and their bodies became a little tense.
Because the person who came in at this time was fully two meters tall, with broad shoulders and a strong body. Just rushing in so simply brought an inexplicable oppressive atmosphere.
In this era when the average height is less than 1.6 meters, if a strong guy over 2 meters suddenly rushes out, even if several people have guns, they can't help but feel slightly suffocated.
"A-Hui!" Lin Xiangnan looked anxious when he saw the person coming, "It's okay here, go back to the sword hall, dad will take care of it. Be obedient!" The person who came in was none other than Lin Hui, who is now in charge of the sword hall.
His physical transformation was completed, and now everything was ready. Suddenly, he heard a report from his disciples, saying that a group of soldiers, all armed with guns, had rushed into his home. They did not dare to stop him, so they knew something had happened and rushed back here quickly.
In this life, he has a strong body and a handsome and masculine appearance, but he is no longer a stranger.
After all, both Lin Xiangnan and Fu Yunxin have good looks, and they are above average. His body cannot be as ordinary as in his previous life. When he saw several soldiers with guns in the yard, Lin Hui narrowed his eyes slightly, and his hand was about to touch the hilt of the sword at his waist.
This body has now been developed to its extreme, and it is time for it to be officially put to use.
"Wait!"
At this moment, several more people suddenly came outside, and one of them turned out to be a young woman.
She has a beautiful appearance, wearing a women's white shirt and black trousers, with her long hair tied into a ponytail, looking like a schoolgirl.
"I know your lady Liu Xuezhen! I am a good friend with her. Who asked you to break into a house and search it directly!!?"
The person who came was surprisingly the snot-soaked girl Zhao Lingxiao who used to play with Lin Hui.
Now she has long lost the stupid look she always had with snot bubbles on her nose. Her eyes are bright and bright. She is walking in front of several students, taking the lead, and her momentum is overwhelming!
Upon hearing the name Liu Xuezhen, several soldiers suddenly became agitated.
The leader was slightly suffocated, and after carefully looking at Zhao Lingxiao, he was a little unsure of the authenticity of the other party's back, so he could only squeeze out a smile. "Since we are Miss Xuezhen's friends, let's forget this! Get out!" He waved his hand, and several soldiers quickly left the yard on both sides. Lin Xiangnan and Fu Yunxin were left behind and both breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment they saw Lin Hui rushing in, both of them were so nervous that their bodies were extremely tense, fearing that Lin Hui would be impulsive and cause a conflict. Although they knew that Lin Hui was not practicing fancy skills now, the martial arts of fists, kicks and weapons were nothing compared to someone aiming several big guns at the same time. In the face of firearms, no matter how strong a martial arts practitioner is, it would only be a matter of one shot.
Fortunately, Zhao Lingxiao arrived in time.
The couple also felt a deep sense of gratitude towards him and stepped forward to greet him.
Lin Hui didn't feel anything at all. What he was thinking about just now was not this, but the chain reaction that he would face next after dealing with these people. Because Heavenly Father Seal, he couldn't kill people, so he just planned to cripple the hands and feet of a few people.
But now that Zhao Lingxiao has solved the problem, there is no need to think so much.
At that moment, he also stepped forward to thank Zhao Lingxiao. No matter what, the other party dared to come forward to help in such a dangerous time. This is a bond of friendship. He should be grateful both emotionally and rationally.
After some polite greetings, Zhao Lingxiao had not seen Lin Hui for several years. When he saw his friend again, he immediately felt a great change. Looking at his handsome face again, there was something strange in his heart.
"Although we are temporarily relieved now, it is not a problem if we encounter a similar situation again in the future. In this way, I will introduce you to Liu Xuezhen later. Brother Hui, please come with me to have a meal with me, give me some gifts, get to know him, make friends, and look after him in the future. Xuezhen is a very good person and a kind person. You will never be disappointed when you meet someone."
Zhao Lingxiao suggested.
"That's fine. Then I'll bother you later, Lingxiao." Lin Hui nodded and smiled.
"No trouble, no trouble, what does it have to do with you and me?" Zhao Lingxiao said boldly, patting his small chest.
The two of them chatted for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they went home respectively.
Lin Xiangnan and Fu Yunxin prepared meals and tried to persuade them to stay for a while, but to no avail, so they had to eat alone with Lin Hui.
In the evening, Lin Xiangnan looked at his son who was much taller than him.
He picked up the wine bottle and poured the other party a small glass.
"A-Hui, you are older now, have you ever thought about getting married and having children? I think Miss Zhao is good, she is righteous, generous, and her appearance and figure are not bad, so why not"
"Dad, do you think this is a good time to have a stable family in this world?" Lin Hui asked in return.
"Having said that, you always have to look forward." Lin Xiangnan said helplessly. Doesn't he know that now is not a good time to get married and have children, but what can he do? Just let his lineage disappear?
"The name of this new commander is Liu Changjing. I heard he is quite upright and has a good reputation. I hope he can bring some new things to West East City in the future..." Fu Yunxin said with a tired look on the side.
In the past, several commanders worked together to manage West East City with checks and balances, but now Commander Liu has the final say in the entire city, and his power is obviously much greater than before. For a while, Lin Xiangnan and his wife were still a little uneasy. Fortunately, just after dinner, Zhao Lingxiao came again, bringing good news. Tomorrow, she will take the lead and take Lin Hui and her best friend Liu Xuezhen to have a meal together and make friends.
After deciding on the time, place and what to eat, the next morning.
Lin Hui went to the sword hall and told Wu Anning to take care of the many disciples and continue practicing, while he went alone to a restaurant named Swallow Fragrance Tower in the city for a banquet.
After opening a private room, Zhao Lingxiao brought a man and a woman into the private room, led by the waiter.
This man and woman were less than 20 years old, with elegant and booklike temperament, and their appearance was above average, slightly lower than Zhao Lingxiao's level. Before they came, they listened to Zhao Lingxiao's introduction, and they were somewhat impatient. But when they saw the real person, the woman's eyes clearly lit up and she became much more enthusiastic.
Men are more interested in how Lin Hui developed such a physique.
After the meal, both of them had a good impression of Lin Hui.
From a simple conversation, Lin Hui learned that this commander Liu Changjing is really not the ordinary warlords before. This person is now more than just a West East City, but also occupies one-third of the entire country's territory, with West East City as the central base for the time being.
He has 400,000 troops under his command, and has built military factories, schools, and hospitals everywhere. He also has relatively strict military discipline under his command, and he has the air of a heroic leader in troubled times.
After the meal, the four of them took a walk in the city together and agreed to go to Lin Hui's sword hall together next time.
Lin Hui then gave the gift and said goodbye.
After the others left, Liu Xuezhen immediately stopped covering up and hugged his best friend.
"Okay, you Zhao Lingxiao, you secretly met such a handsome guy, and you didn't tell me in advance that you wanted to keep it to yourself, right?" I haven't seen him in a few years, and I didn't expect him to look like this. He was not so outstanding before." Zhao Lingxiao said helplessly. "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. You can take me to the sword hall later. I have decided. It just so happens that my father wants me to find a dance teacher to learn dancing and exercise my body. So if I switch to learning traditional swordsmanship, it can also be regarded as exercise?" Liu Xuezhen showed a rippling smile.
This smile made Zhao Lingxiao feel a little bit disgusted.
"He has a very cold temper. Just don't lose your temper because he is rejected!"
"Hey, Ling Xiao is jealous?" Liu Xuezhen laughed while holding back her voice.
the other side.
After Lin Hui bid farewell to the three of them, he simply headed straight towards the place where Decay Aberration's body had been captured.
He had already inquired about Water Buffalo Village outside the city, and it was now being haunted. He invited several wandering mages there, but they could not deal with it. Since Bright Mirror Temple was burned down, there has been a lack of a mage force near West East City who can guard the surrounding areas.
Nowadays, many forces have extended their tentacles, but no one has completely occupied the entire city.
After leaving the city wall, except for a winding driveway leading into the distance, the surroundings are surrounded by dense and dark mountain forests.
All the cars and horses passing by were gathered together in large groups, and the men with guns around them were vigilantly watching for any movement nearby.
Each team of carriages and horses maintained a clear distance of 100 meters, and they were obviously wary of each other.
People like Lin Hui who went out of the city alone, apart from him, were just some hunters and herb gatherers with numb expressions and experienced movements.
But these people are risking their lives to make a living.
Lin Hui didn't care about other people's opinions, accelerated alone, and trotted forward along the main road.
Water Buffalo Village is adjacent to Black Donkey Village.
Most of the sparse mud houses in the village were tightly closed at this time, with the doors and windows completely blocked. No movement could be heard, and no livestock could be heard. Only the wind blew through the leaves, and fallen leaves fell like raindrops.
At this time, in the center of the village, there is an old double-story house that occupies a large area.
Brother Hao, who is wearing a police uniform, together with the consultant recruited by the police station - Master Zhu Xiang, and his friend Thunderclap Palm, a boxing master, Dai Yunhua, have been here to investigate Blood Character Case who has relapsed for more than three days.
Compared to many years ago, Brother Hao's complexion is now much colder and older. Although he is still neatly dressed in a police uniform, there is a touch of bitterness in his eyebrows that cannot be removed.
"Daozhang Zhu, is there still no movement?" Brother Hao asked softly.
