Chapter 460: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor of the Founding of the Country 71
A group of bandits drew their knives at the same time, obviously they were well prepared. There was dead silence all around. The people who were originally watching the fun didn't dare to say a word, and some even slipped away quietly to avoid being implicated.
Zhang Mazi was so anxious that he was spinning around. "It's over! A fight is about to break out. Why don't we go find the Third Master? With all the noise going on, why aren't the other masters here?"
Several bandits nearby who were on good terms with Zhang Mazi whispered, "It's none of your business, so just stay out of it. Who dares to go against Wei Zhong's wishes and get involved in these messes?"
"The Third Master has a huge beard, he's just a mascot, his presence is useless!"
"I don't think Lin Yuan is that smart. He brought so many people back. Isn't it better to just fight and kill Wei Zhong? He has taken the position of the head of the family. Who dares to say anything?"
Zhang Mazi patted his friend's arm and cursed in a low voice: "You are so smart! If a fight really breaks out, we don't know whether Wei Zhong will live or not. The rest of us are just cannon fodder and will die faster than anyone else!"
"You didn't see the scene that day. It was rumbling like thunder, shaking the earth and mountains. I don't know how many good things Gang Leader Lin had hidden in his hands. If he hadn't shown mercy, all those who tried to intercept him that day would have died!"
"Anyway, I've chosen Boss Lin. I bet he can win. He will definitely be the next big boss!"
Lin Yuan drew out the sword at his waist. The blade was a bottomless black color, thicker and heavier than ordinary swords, and it was heavy and imposing.
Lin Yuan's men also drew their weapons and surrounded Lin Yuan in an organized manner.
They wore uniform green clothes, with armor on key parts such as the chest, looking very majestic. They had kept the new clothes and originally wanted to return home in glory, but now they had to draw their swords against their former brothers.
Although they are small in number, they are very powerful. They have experienced a lot along the way and have a completely different temperament from ordinary bandits. They look very intimidating.
The bandits on the opposite side couldn't help but take a step back, partly because they were afraid and partly because they were unwilling to fight with their former brothers.
It would be fine if they were just sparring, but once swords were drawn, blood would be shed. After this fight, they became mortal enemies.
Wei Zhong shouted sternly, "Why are you retreating? We have more people, are we afraid of them? Go ahead!"
Lin Yuan said coldly: "Uncle Wei, I call you Uncle Wei for the sake of my adoptive father. I have no intention of fighting with you. Don't force me to do it. We are all brothers here. Do we have to fight to the death?"
This made Wei Zhong even more angry. He hung his insensitive left arm, raised his knife in his right hand, and shouted, "Don't be so proud. I am the boss of the village. Am I afraid of a young boy like you? Go for it!"
"Wait!" Ji Yunhuan stood beside Lin Yuan. She patted Lin Yuan's arm and scolded, "How do you talk to Uncle Wei? Is Uncle Wei the kind of unreasonable person? You make a fuss over such a small matter. You are such a grown-up, but you are so ignorant!"
Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, but he believed in Huan'er unconditionally, and he didn't want to fight, so he put down the sword quickly.
Wei Zhong was also stunned for a moment, and then a surge of ecstasy surged in his heart. The beauty was indeed on his side. He was the boss of the village, and Lin Yuan was nothing. Any smart person would know what to choose.
Wei Zhong raised his hand to stop the bandits, revealing a bit of a smile, "My lady is sensible. For your sake, I can refrain from taking action today, but you must give me an explanation for this matter. My son cannot suffer this beating in vain."
Ji Yunhuan smiled and said, "How can this be considered a waste of time? The village is in a mess right now. The bandits are not making progress and are only thinking about gambling and having fun. If this continues, they will be destroyed by other villages sooner or later. The second in command was beaten today to serve as a warning to the monkeys. It will be easier for the first in command to manage the village in the future."
Wei Zhong felt something was wrong. "What do you mean by killing a chicken to scare the monkey? Why did Lin Yuan hit my son? I can't bear to hit him myself!"
Ji Yunhuan kept smiling and spoke at a moderate pace so that everyone could hear him clearly.
"It is precisely because the boss is reluctant to beat him that A Yuan wants to discipline this unfilial son on his behalf."
"It has been a short time since Gang Leader Hong left, and the Big Boss has just taken over. He will definitely not change the old rules. But the Second Boss is ignorant and has been gambling without telling the Big Boss. The bets are quite large. What do the brothers in the village think?"
"Everyone will become more and more reckless in the future. What if they get excited and kill or burn something? The position of the head of the family is not secure either."
"A Yuan beat the second in command in public. He did it for the first in command and also to teach the late Gang Leader Hong a lesson. You don't have to thank A Yuan."
Wei Zhong was so choked that he was speechless. He couldn't say that he was the one who instructed his son to gamble. Being the banker was the most profitable and it was a business that was sure to make money.
He also couldn't say that the people in the village didn't follow the previous rules. Most of the people in the village were young and middle-aged men. If they became lawless, he wouldn't be able to suppress them.
The confidant next to him whispered, "Boss, what this woman said makes sense, should we still fight?"
Wei Zhong was filled with rage and had nowhere to vent it, so he fiercely kicked his confidant and angrily said, "What a bullshit! I am the reason! I will repay my grievances and revenges, this is my rule!"
Lin Yuan knew that the fight could not start, so he put the sword back and continued according to Huan'er's words, "Although it is reasonable for me to teach Wei Yong a lesson, and it is also for the sake of the village, but Uncle Wei loves his son very much, and I can understand that he is unhappy in his heart."
"I am responsible for my own actions. If Uncle Wei wants to avenge his son, you can come to me at any time. I will accompany you. But brothers, we can't fight because of our personal grudges. Everyone, tell me, is this the truth?"
Zhang Mazi was mixed in the crowd and immediately responded loudly.
More and more people echoed this view. As long as they could survive, no one wanted the gods above to fight and put their lives in danger.
Wei Zhong has been put in an embarrassing situation. In the past, he always used moral principles to pressure Lin Yuan, but after going out, Lin Yuan has become smooth-talking and even started to argue with him. He has really improved a lot.
Wei Zhong snorted coldly and said gloomily: "Very good! You said it yourself, personal grudges should be settled privately, you must not regret it, we will see!"
Both sides put down their weapons, and the gunfight was averted without a trace.
Lin Yuan took Ji Yunhuan's hand and kissed it, his face full of pride, "Huan'er, you are really amazing. Let's go back and rest."
Everyone on the first floor dispersed, and the bandits who had just participated in the gambling all ran away without a trace. They didn't dare to show up in front of Lin Yuan at all. Lin Yuan even dared to beat Wei Zhong, so they didn't want to get into trouble.
Lin Yuan walked around the first floor and said with a smile: "Brothers, rest here today. There are many rooms, you can choose any one you want. You followed me in the past, and you have made contributions after going out. It's not easy to come back home. I won't let you live in the wild."
