"How dare you! Release the young marshal!!"
At this moment, the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Regiment, Li Gang, Lin Chuang's deputy, was glaring with fury.
Li Gang was furious, wishing he could tear Lin Yu and the other man to pieces, but with Lin Chuang in their hands, he dared not make any rash moves!
Lin Yu remained unmoved, staring at Lin Chuang with a mocking expression. "Big brother, you brought so many people today, are you really planning to kill me?"
Lin Chuang's face twitched, and he grinned, saying, "It's a misunderstanding. This was all Yu Xiao's own idea. Now that he's dead, you should be calmed down, right?"
Lin Yu nodded. "So, I misunderstood you?"
"Of course, we're brothers..." Lin Chuang immediately smiled apologetically, but before he could finish speaking...
Snap!
A large slap landed hard on his face.
Lin Chuang's head suddenly split open, his eyes wide with disbelief.
In his eyes, his younger brother was nothing more than a lowly reptile.
From childhood to adulthood, he was always the one hitting the other.
He never expected that the other party would dare to hit him at this moment.
"You little bastard? You dare hit me?!" Lin Chuang roared desperately, feeling extremely humiliated.
Snap!
Another resounding slap.
"How does it feel to be beaten by this bastard?" Lin Yu said jokingly.
Lin Chuang took a deep breath. "What exactly do you want?"
"What do I want?" Lin Yu laughed heartily, his voice tinged with desolation.
He turned his back, looked at the peach blossoms covering the mountain, and said in a sorrowful voice, "Ten years ago, my mother took me away from the Lin family and we begged along the streets. That winter, I couldn't even get enough to eat. In the end, I was so hungry that I could only gnaw on tree bark!"
Lin Yu plucked a piece of bark from the tree and threw it in front of Lin Chuang, saying, "This is so delicious, you should try it, big brother!"
"You fucking want me to eat tree bark?" Lin Chuang was furious and embarrassed.
He's been pampered since childhood, when has he ever eaten this stuff?
This kid is clearly humiliating him!
"What? Don't you want to eat?"
"Feng Jiu, feed him!" Lin Yu frowned.
Just as Feng Jiu was about to make her move.
Two figures walked calmly down the mountain.
It was none other than Lu Yongcheng and his deputy Liao Xian.
"General?"
The members of the Tiger and Leopard Gang looked on in surprise.
The Tiger and Leopard Regiment belongs to the Tiger and Leopard Army, and Lu Yongcheng is their big boss!
"Are the eldest and second young masters just playing around? What are you doing?"
Lu Yongcheng coldly glanced at everyone and snapped, "Hurry up and put your guns away!"
The group looked at each other, but dared not disobey their commander, and immediately put the weapon down.
"Uncle Lu, you've come at the right time! This little bastard has rebelled! Quickly help me take him down!" Lin Chuang shouted as if he had seen a savior when he saw Lu Yongcheng.
Lu Yongcheng paused for a moment, then went to Lin Yu's side and said with a forced smile, "Second Young Master, we're all brothers, blood is thicker than water, why bother..."
"You've been here for a while, haven't you?" Lin Yu suddenly spoke, interrupting him.
Lu Yongcheng was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.
"Since you're here, why don't you come up?"
Lin Yu frowned, then said, "You want me to die too?"
Lu Yongcheng looked embarrassed. "Second Young Master, it's not what you think..."
"Old Lu, are you blind? You don't even recognize your master anymore? You don't even call him Young Marshal anymore?" Feng Jiu pointed at Lu Yongcheng's nose and cursed.
Lu Yongcheng's expression twitched, but he still forced a smile: "Second Young Master, you've misunderstood! Whether it's you or the Eldest Young Master, you are both the Commander-in-Chief's sons. Old Lu wouldn't dare to show the slightest disrespect!"
"I didn't mean to kill him!"
Lin Yu sneered and said calmly, "As long as he eats the tree bark, I'll spare his life today!"
Lu Yongcheng glanced at Lin Chuang and said with a smile, "No matter what, you're brothers, there's no need to..."
Before she could finish speaking, Feng Jiu suddenly shoved the bark into Lin Chuang's mouth; the sharp barbs pricked his tongue, drawing blood.
Immediately, Feng Jiu kicked him hard to the ground.
Ptooey!
Lin Chuang flew into a rage, stood up, covered his mouth, and roared, "What are you all standing there for? Kill him now! Shoot!"
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances and then turned to look at Lu Yongcheng.
Lu Yongcheng is the commander-in-chief; without his orders, who would dare to act recklessly?
At this moment, Lu Yongcheng's fist was also trembling slightly, as if he was trying his best to control it.
However, he managed a smile in the end and said, "Haha! Young Master, Second Young Master was just joking!"
"Make way, let the second young master pass!"
Lu Yongcheng waved his hand.
The members of the Tiger and Leopard Gang exchanged glances and immediately parted to make way for each other.
Lin Yu gave Lu Yongcheng a deep look, sneered, and strode away with Feng Jiu.
Only after the two had walked a distance did Lin Chuang finally shout out, "Uncle Lu, you just let him go like that?"
Lu Yongcheng quickly smiled obsequiously, "Young Master, no matter what, the Second Young Master is still your own brother. If I dare to touch him, I won't be able to explain it to the Commander!"
"You!" Lin Chuang took a deep breath, wanting to curse. But Lu Yongcheng was a key figure in the Fengtian Army and his father's sworn brother, so he couldn't afford to offend him.
Lu Yongcheng smiled and continued, "Young Master, I'm doing this for your own good. With the grand ceremony just around the corner, if things escalate and the Commander-in-Chief blames you, it will be very disadvantageous for you!"
"Thinking of me? So I should thank you?" Lin Chuang said irritably.
Lu Yongcheng blushed and gave an awkward laugh.
Lin Chuang snorted and squinted as he asked, "Uncle Lu, I'd like to ask you, whose side are you really on?"
