Chapter 62: Sowing Dissension



Before Feng Ling could reminisce with Lin Zheng, the man who was blown away crawled up with injuries, picked up the knife, and rushed towards Lin Zheng with difficulty, as if he was not afraid of death.

Huo Jinxing was afraid that this man would hurt Feng Ling, so he quickly drew out his sword. With a casual swing, he could hear the sword's soft ringing sound, which showed how sharp his sword was.

Even through the mask, one could feel the coldness in his eyes, and he swung his sword across to chop off the man's head.

Lin Zheng ignored the pain in his body and forced himself to stand up and crawl forward a few steps, "Spare his life."

It is possible to keep the person, but there is no need to keep him if he may hurt Feng Ling's hands and feet. Huo Jinxing's sword energy quickly flashed two rays of light, and the man fell to his knees with a thud, and the knife in his hand fell at the same time.

He screamed and rolled on the ground, blood splattered all over the floor.

Lin Zheng looked at the masked man brought by Feng Ling in astonishment. Is this Miss Feng’s neighbor?

He is not an ordinary person at all. When did such a person appear in Heshan Village? I have never heard Mo Zijie mention him.

"Don't you want to live? You still have the mood to care about the murderer. Lie down, I will stop your bleeding." Feng Ling immediately took out a silver needle.

Seeing that the servant wouldn't die for the time being, Lin Zheng calmed down. However, he was still very surprised. "Miss Feng, you can catch ghosts and monsters, draw talismans and read faces, and even perform medical skills?"

Isn't she so talented? I've never seen such a talented girl before.

"I'm a wizard, so is it strange that I know medicine? But you, a spoiled young man, had such a big hole in your body, and you didn't even cry? You're really patient, tough guy!"

Lin Zheng is a very interesting young man. He is said to be from a scholarly family, but he has an unconventional personality and is not spoiled at all. This can be seen from the fact that he makes friends with a farmer's boy of humble origins like Mo Zijie.

Lin Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was he a spoiled brat or a tough guy? "Nothing is more painful than physical pain. The person who wants to kill me is actually my personal servant who grew up with me. I'm such a failure as a human being."

"Lin Zheng!" In the distance, Mo Shengping was running towards this side, panting.

"It's not such a failure. Someone who cares about you is here. If you knew what happened in his family, you wouldn't feel so miserable."

As Feng Ling spoke, her hands did not stop moving. One by one, silver needles were accurately inserted into the acupuncture points near Lin Zheng's wound through the clothes.

At this time, Mo Shengping also arrived, "Are you okay? What happened?"

Mo Shengping looked at Lin Zheng worriedly, then glanced at the servant not far away, frowning.

Lin Zheng laughed at himself, "I want to know what's going on, too. Lin Yuan, can you tell me?"

Lin Zheng asked his servant.

Lin Yuan snorted, not caring about his injured hands and feet at all. Instead, he stared at Lin Zheng with resentment, "I'm happy to do that. I simply don't like you and want to kill you."

There was not much surprise on Mo Shengping's face. What happened in his family was outrageous enough, so what was Lin Zheng's misfortune?

"He is stubborn and refuses to repent. You don't need to ask to know that he was deceived by others and repaid his master's kindness with hatred." Mo Shengping said disdainfully. He had always disliked this servant.

He has no sense of propriety at all. Not only does he treat his master as an equal, but he is also extremely arrogant and domineering, often inadvertently ruining Lin Zheng's reputation without realizing it.

"You're talking nonsense!" Lin Yuan finally exploded, "Lin Zheng is a piece of shit!

You clearly didn't like Xiaoyue, so why did you sleep with her? You defiled her, so why didn't you give her a legitimate status?

He caused her to hang herself in the peach forest?! Is being rich such a big deal? Is being able to reincarnate such a big deal? Does that mean you can treat the lives of others as nothing?

I like Xiaoyue, you know, I almost moved her to marry me.

I have been helpless since I was young, and all I want is to have a home and a wife who cares about me and my well-being. Why are you destroying such a small request?

I've served you for over a decade, isn't that enough?!" Lin Yuan felt that he was being merciful by simply wanting to kill Lin Zheng. With such a huge grudge, he should have dragged the entire Lin family down with him.

Feng Ling was amazed. It turned out to be a romantic affair. Who would have thought Lin Zheng was such a person? Haha, what a man!

Feng Ling ate melon to heal his wounds and didn't say anything.

"Bullshit! I'm still a virgin." Lin Zheng was furious.

"Poof!" Isn't this melon a bit too big? Feng Ling jumped and jumped behind Huo Jinxing, but curiously poked her little head out to watch the fun.

Fortunately, Lin Zheng's wound stopped bleeding.

"Did we hear some important secret? We won't be silenced, will we?" Feng Ling blinked curiously.

It is rare to see a scholar so irritable. Is it because he has been holding back his virginity for too long and is prone to anxiety?

Huo Jinxing rubbed Feng Ling's head and said nothing.

Lin Zheng was angry and didn't pay much attention to Feng Ling. Instead, he pointed at Lin Yuan and cursed, "Lin Yuan, you have been with me for more than ten years, but your feelings for me are not as good as a woman who has only been here for two years?

You don't believe in me? I don't have any woman I want. Is it necessary to fight with a servant for a woman?

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Ling's eyes lit up a little, almost even more excited than the man named Lin Yuan, "Oh, it turns out that the two are good friends." This is quite spicy.

"Huh?" Huo Jinxing was confused. After resuming the relationship with his boyfriend, he had a best friend? What kind of relationship was this?

"It's the love story of the cut-sleeve."

Huo Jinxing was speechless. Apart from witchcraft, what other messed-up things were in Feng Ling's little head?

But fortunately, he had never been within ten steps of anyone, regardless of gender, and he suddenly felt a little proud.

Of course, except Feng Ling.

"Impossible, I saw Xiaoyue running out of your room in disarray and crying, she admitted it herself.

A few days after this incident, she hanged herself." From then on, Lin Yuan looked at Lin Zheng with resentment.

"How dare you say that? I told you from the beginning that Yue was not a good person who could live a stable life.

She is pretentious and arrogant, and has always been taking advantage of you. What you saw that day must have been her seducing me and me kicking her out.

Moreover, she was not hanged to death. She was suffocated to death and then hung up to create an illusion. This was the result verified by the coroner of the yamen.

If you don't believe me, you can go and ask. I saw that you cared a lot about that maid, so I didn't tell you in detail for fear of upsetting you."

The main reason was that he was afraid that Lin Yuan would seek revenge after finding out the truth. The coroner's examination result showed that the person was suffocated to death, and Lin Zheng used some tricks to find out.

Since he has the ability to cover up the truth, Lin Yuan is definitely not his opponent, and there is no need for the Lin family to make enemies for an unruly servant.

"Don't try to argue. This kind of divisive tactics is what Chen You often uses. If you try to link this to him, you will definitely find a flaw."

Chen Youyong is the son of the village head and a classmate of theirs, but they have never gotten along well.

The Mo family is rich, so it is understandable that the Chen family is concerned about them.

The Lin family is powerful and respected by the officials. They are more powerful than the village head of the Chen family. It is not surprising that they target and frame him.

"Now that you mention it, I remember that according to the government's statement, the first person to discover the crime scene was the maid of the Chen family." Lin Zheng slapped his thigh, and was so excited that he knocked the needle that Feng Ling had inserted away.
