Chapter 466: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor of the Founding of the Country 77
The third in command's heart skipped a beat. Wei Zhong actually still had this trick up his sleeve. He was going to kill Lin Tian.
Everyone stood up in shock, and someone asked anxiously, "Are they really the police? How many people did they bring? Can we defeat them?"
The bandit on the ground had been helped up. He covered his shoulder with a look of pain on his face. "It's the police! The leader is surnamed Guo, we all call him Lord Guo. He has arrested many of our brothers and is still holding them captive. He will definitely attack us soon!"
Wei Zhong looked determined, "Now is the moment of life and death for the village. Don't worry, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty!"
"This is our territory. Let's hide in the mountains. Even if he has great abilities, he won't be able to catch us. We are just afraid that someone will betray the stronghold and kill us all!"
This insider naturally refers to Lin Yuan.
Faced with a powerful enemy, the crowd had no time to think about the details. Many people believed it on the spot and looked at Lin Yuan with vigilance.
Lin Yuan had not expected this and argued loudly, "You are talking nonsense! Guo Yi is just an official escorting exiled prisoners. He only needs to take the prisoners to Lingnan. Why would he arrest bandits for no reason?"
"You must have done something evil. Did you poison the water source? That's why you angered Guo Yi..."
The fourth boss was quick-witted and interrupted Lin Yuan immediately, shouting at the top of his voice: "Lin Yuan has already admitted that Guo Yi is a government official! Who knows what he does? If he takes down the bandit's nest, he will definitely get promoted and make a fortune!"
"Listen everyone, Lin Yuan is clearly siding with outsiders. He doesn't trust his own brothers, but instead believes those corrupt officials. He is a traitor!"
The bandits outside also heard the news. Some believed it, some didn't, and there was a lot of noise and confusion.
At Wei Zhong's command, all the men that Lin Yuan brought back were surrounded.
He was filled with grief and pointed at Lin Yuan, cursing, "You are such a heartless person! If it weren't for Brother Hong saving you, you would have been captured and beheaded by the dog officials. You have done such a shameless thing, and we cannot keep you in the village!"
"Brothers, take down Lin Yuan and his gang! I will clean up the mess for Big Brother Hong today. Kill this evil creature and make him pay homage to Big Brother Hong in the underworld!"
There was a sound of fighting outside, and some people rushed in and surrounded Lin Yuan, Ji Yunhuan and others.
Ji Da held the heavy sword in his hand and protected Ji Yunhuan. He kicked a bandit away and whispered, "Don't worry, young lady. These bandits are just a mob. We can definitely protect you."
The people in the meeting hall were divided into two factions. One faction really believed Wei Zhong's words and led people to surround and kill Lin Yuan, while the other faction was just watching the show.
Although Lin Yuan's men were few in number, they worked together and each one was very difficult to defeat. Wei Zhong was getting anxious and knew that if he delayed any further he would be exposed.
He rushed to the door with a sword in hand and shouted at the bandits who were watching the excitement outside: "Why are you standing there like idiots? Are you in cahoots with the officials? Do you want to betray the stronghold too? If we don't capture Lin Yuan, we will all die when the officials come to kill us!"
Wei Zhong spoke eloquently, and the fourth in command supported him. More and more bandits joined the battle, and on the top of the mountain, the fighting was fierce!
Lin Yuan punched the fourth in command in the stomach. The fourth in command vomited a mouthful of bitter water, then fell down holding his stomach, unconscious from the pain.
"Stop it, everyone! There are no police officers arresting anyone! You have all been deceived by Wei Zhong, stop fighting!"
Lin Yuan grabbed a bandit by the collar and threw him to the ground. A knife came at him from somewhere and Lin Yuan snatched it away, trying to chop it back. The bandit was so scared that his face turned pale and his eyes widened.
Lin Yuan recognized this bandit, he recognized most of the people here. He couldn't be like Wei Zhong, who instigated his brothers to kill each other in order to seize this position.
His adoptive father once said that he didn't look like a bandit. In fact, it was all his adoptive father's teaching. Huan'er always said that he was kind-hearted. He didn't understand what kindness was. He just felt that one couldn't use any means to treat his own people.
In his heart, everyone in the village is his own people.
If one day he really becomes emperor, then everyone in this land will be his own people, and the Rongdi in the north and the pirates in the south will be the enemies he should deal with.
Lin Yuan flipped his wrist and chopped down with the back of the knife, knocking the man unconscious.
Everyone was already mad with killing intent, and Lin Yuan's voice was too soft to have any effect at all.
Lin Yuan held the knife and looked at Wei Zhong with a deep gaze. At this moment, he finally wanted to kill Wei Zhong!
Wei Zhong was startled by this look. He reacted quickly and immediately dodged back, shouting:
"Lin Yuan, what do you want to do? You are guilty! You want to kill me! You traitor, if you kill me, the brothers will not let you go!"
Lin Yuan's hand creaked as he held the knife handle. Ji Yunhuan also retreated to the door. She held Lin Yuan's hand and whispered, "Now is not a good time to kill him."
Ji Yunhuan's face was a little pale, and his voice was almost inaudible, but it was able to calm Lin Yuan's surging anger.
Lin Yuan stared at Wei Zhong coldly, "You are the traitor! I didn't do anything, why should I feel guilty?"
"If you still have a trace of conscience, you should ask the brothers to stop. If they continue to fight like this, I don't know how many people will be killed or injured."
Wei Zhongba must have more deaths, especially those who refused to obey his orders. It would be best if Lin Yuan died as well, so that the world would be at peace.
A bandit was fighting vigorously when suddenly his feet slipped and he seemed to be tripped by something. He looked down and could hardly believe his eyes.
There was actually a silver ingot lying on the ground. It was so smooth that you could see a person's reflection in it. He had never seen such a new and big silver ingot!
The bandit looked around and quickly picked up the silver.
"Damn! Whose silver fell!" someone shouted, then fell silent and quickly hid the silver in his arms.
More and more people picked up silver, and some even found silver buried in the soil, revealing a little silver luster, and when they dug it up they found a silver ingot.
"Wait! Stop fighting, hurry up and dig for the silver! When was the silver buried on the top of this mountain? Could it be the treasure left by Gang Leader Hong?"
"If we had known there was money on the top of the mountain, we wouldn't have to worry. There's still money here! Lots of silver!"
"Why don't I see any silver? Damn it! Fight for nothing! Who is the boss has nothing to do with me. I became a bandit just for money! Why do you care so much!"
"Even if the police come in, I will dig up the silver and run away!"
When the people in the meeting hall heard the noise, they couldn't help but run out to take a look. Sure enough, there was silver all over the floor, just like picking up money.
Who was still in the mood to fight now? Even the dozen or so bosses couldn't help it and started digging for silver!
