Chapter 398 Don't go too far, kid.
Little Su Bao glanced at the old woman and then snuggled closer to Tang Bugui's arms.
Lin Qiqi and the other children were incredibly excited when they saw the newcomers.
"Grandma Yin!" The three people rushed over and hugged the old woman.
Tang Qi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. For some reason, he felt a coldness on his back, as if someone was watching him.
This feeling is awful.
"Achoo!" Tang Qi sneezed instantly, and a small hand reached out from the side...
"Dad, wipe your nose!" Tang Sanbao chuckled and said cheerfully.
Upon seeing his son, Tang Qi was completely devastated!
That brat actually took advantage of the family's inattention and rode the family's white housekeeper to follow us here!
Not to mention that, this kid actually traveled by water!
"Don't go too far, you brat!" Tang Qi glared at his son, then turned to look at Lin Qiqi not far away.
That young girl is quite nice, but I wonder if she'll go blind...
"Dad, what are you saying? How could I go too far?" Tang Sanbao chuckled and looked over with his father.
The white-clad butler, with his large buttocks sticking out, walked behind him.
Tang Qi's lips twitched, and for a moment he didn't know what to say!
"Auntie, Auntie, don't be afraid, I'll protect you!" Tang Sanbao chuckled and rushed over.
Upon hearing Tang Sanbao's voice, everyone's expression changed slightly for a moment.
Especially the Lin family members, after hearing that this brat might have taken advantage of their Qiqi, all of them looked at Tang Sanbao differently.
Little Su Bao's face changed, and she quickly called out to Tang Sanbao, "Nephew Sanbao, come here!"
Tang Sanbao immediately rushed to Xiao Su Bao's side. Seeing the worry in Xiao Su Bao's eyes, he thought that his aunt was scared.
Just as he was about to speak, Lin Laosan snorted, took a step forward, and pulled Lin Qiqi and the others to walk straight ahead.
As he walked, you could hear him saying to his daughter, "Qiqi, let me tell you, never trust a man's words... especially those who haven't even grown their pubic hair yet..."
Tang Sanbao scratched his head, wondering why he felt like Uncle Lin was always watching him!
Forget it, I'm definitely reliable, so Uncle Lin must not be talking about me!
“Nephew Sanbao…you…” Little Su Bao saw that the golden light on Tang Sanbao’s head was getting stronger and stronger.
This was a sign of exceptionally good fortune; the words that were about to come out of the little girl's mouth vanished instantly.
"Smashed it?" Tang Sanbao glanced at Lin Qiqi before turning to his aunt and asking.
"It's nothing!" Xiao Su Bao pursed her lips, deciding that she shouldn't say anything.
"Alright, let's go in first!" Boss Lin glanced at Tang Sanbao and said nothing more.
In any case, their daughter won't get married easily, and if anyone treats their daughter badly, they can simply let her get a divorce!
A large village like Linjia Village can afford to raise a child.
The group slowly walked downstairs. Little Su Bao carefully looked at the surrounding environment, and then the little dumpling's brows furrowed slightly.
Although she didn't understand feng shui, she still felt a little uncomfortable looking at Linjia Village.
Especially now!
It was almost dusk, and Linjia Village looked like a ghost village!
Thinking of this, Xiao Su Bao suddenly remembered what Zhao Ziyun had said to her when she arrived.
Is there really a ghost here?
"What's wrong?" Tang Bugui felt Xiao Su Bao's body trembling slightly, and his brows furrowed.
"Dad...Dad...I'm alright!" Xiao Su Bao calmed herself down.
My mother once said that the ghosts that others are afraid of might be the people that some people would do anything to see in their entire lives!
What's so scary about ghosts? What's scary is people, the human heart!
Little Su Bao pursed her lips, her little head looking up at the sky. The dazzling starlight fell, and she seemed to feel her mother watching over her.
Yes, there are no ghosts in the world, and even if there were, they wouldn't be scary!
Little Su Bao comforted herself and asked Tang Bugui, "Daddy, if Mommy came back as a ghost, would you be scared?"
Tang Bugui paused, then shook his head firmly.
"If your mother can come back, whether she's a human, a ghost, or something else, your father won't be afraid, as long as she can come back..."
Tang Bugui pursed his lips, his voice hoarse like never before.
Little Su Bao nodded, a smile on her face: "That's what I think too!"
Yinniang and Yang Nuannuan, who were following behind them, exchanged a glance.
Yang Nuannuan's face was covered in tears. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Yinniang held her daughter's hand tightly and said gently, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon, just wait a little longer!"
Yang Nuannuan suppressed the urge, took a deep breath, and leaned against Yinniang's chest.
On the other side, Lin Qiqi, Lin Xiao, and Xiao Lin Jiu had already started chatting away.
"Grandma Yin, you have no idea how exciting this trip was!"
Lin Jiu spoke excitedly, a hint of indescribable emotion in his eyes.
Lin Xiao looked at his younger sister with a hint of helplessness, but his eyes were full of doting affection.
He turned to look at Xiao Su Bao. If Xiao Su Bao really was his great-aunt's daughter...
Thinking of this, he secretly resolved that he must bring glory to the Lin family!
Lin Qiqi was a little distracted at the moment because of some things that had happened.
After much difficulty, the group finally arrived outside the Lin Family Village.
From a distance, you can see the plaque of Linjia Village, with high stone walls on both sides.
The gate was made of some kind of wood, and there was a watchtower on top of it.
This place looks no different from any other ordinary mountain stronghold.
"We're back!" Old Lin shouted.
Once the people on the watchtower confirmed the return of the people, the gate creaked open from the inside.
Upon entering, one is greeted by expectant faces, both men and women, but with fewer women and more men.
But what's strange is that there are no children here, only the elderly and young people.
Behind them, a brazier glowed, illuminating the entire village.
"You're finally back!" An old man rushed out, his eyes filled with anxiety.
"Dad, we're alright!" Old Lin hurriedly said to the old man.
Seeing that his sons were all alright, Old Master Lin breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when he noticed the people from Tangjia Village behind them.
In an instant, the originally relaxed scene became somewhat tense.
They have been hunted down too many times, and now they are wanted by the imperial court, so they are truly afraid to see outsiders.
"Who are these people?" Old Master Lin asked, his face showing some vigilance and his voice carrying a hint of seriousness.
"Dad, who does she look like?" Old Master Lin pulled the old man over to Xiao Su Bao and Tang Bu Gui.
Tang Bugui shielded Xiao Su Bao in his arms with his cloak. The little dumpling heard the noise outside and peeked out from under his father's cloak.
"Little sister..." Grandpa Lin's eyes widened instantly as he looked at Xiao Su Bao in disbelief.
He then realized what was happening and immediately shook his head.
If his younger sister were alive, she would be over forty years old, but this little girl only looks four or five.
"This isn't my aunt, her name is Tang Su!"
The eldest son addressed his father, and then explained to Tang Bugui and the others, "This is my father, Lin Rusong, the current head of the Lin family!"
Tang Bugui nodded to the old man: "Greetings, Patriarch Lin!"
"Dad, this is Su Bao's father, Tang Bugui..." He frowned slightly at the end of his sentence.
For some reason, he felt a certain familiarity with the name.
Old Master Lin's expression changed slightly, and his gaze fixed intently on Tang Bugui's face.
He had met Tang Bugui before, but Tang Bugui wasn't sixteen or seventeen years old then...
Upon seeing this, Old Master Lin almost lost his balance.
The Lin family is most afraid of encountering people from the imperial court!
But Tang Bugui before my eyes...
His face was ashen, but seeing that Tang Bugui had not revealed his identity, he forced himself to remain calm.
Little Su Bao said to Grandpa Lin in a sweet, babyish voice, "Grandpa, don't be afraid, Su Bao's daddy is a very good person!"
Old Master Lin's lips twitched!
He didn't want to say a word at that moment!
Good person!
When he gets old and senile, have you ever seen someone kill thousands of enemy soldiers without blinking?
Have you ever seen a good person who kills enemy soldiers so badly they cry for their fathers and mothers?
Forget it, forget it. He was worried that if he kept thinking like this, he would scare himself to death before Tang Bugui and the others could even make a move.
His face looked rather pale, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
Just then, a voice came: "Who's back? Is it Xiao Qi and the others?"
"Mother, why are you out here? Your eyesight isn't good, you shouldn't go out so easily!" Old Master Lin has an elderly mother, but she is now seventy years old and her health is deteriorating.
"It's alright, it's alright. But Xiao Qi and the others are back?" The old woman's pupils were shrouded in something white, and she couldn't see the people in front of her. Two old women were supporting her.
"Great-grandmother, we're back!" Lin Qiqi hurried over and took the old woman's hand.
Lin Jiu rushed over and said softly, "And Xiao Jiu too!"
Lin Xiao didn't rush to speak. He stepped forward and reached out to support the old man's other hand.
"I'm sorry to have worried my great-grandmother, we're back safe and sound!" Lin Xiao's voice was gentle, and the wariness he had shown outside was gone from his eyes.
Little Su Bao, however, hid in Tang Bugui's arms, her eyes secretly glancing at the people around her.
Although those people had happy expressions on their faces, their heads were all black!
Moreover, Xiao Su Bao noticed that since they came in, they seemed to have a bit more black aura about them.
"Alright, it's hot outside, let's go back inside!" Old Master Lin said helplessly as he watched his mother come out.
The second prince raised an eyebrow. He had heard about the Lin family before and even saw their arrest warrant. He didn't expect that the people here might be worth a lot of money!
Should I make some money myself?
"Second Uncle..." Xiao Su Bao's voice suddenly came, and the Second Prince instantly recovered. He turned his head to look at Xiao Su Bao.
The little girl's voice was soft, and her eyes held a gentle warmth.
"Second Uncle, you dropped your purse!"
The second prince was startled, looked down, and sure enough, his money pouch had just fallen to the ground.
His lips twitched; he hadn't even earned any money yet, and he almost lost it all.
Forget it, if the Lin family is innocent, he wouldn't mind helping them out!
It's because my eldest niece wanted to come here.
"Yes, thank you, Su Bao!" the Second Prince said to Su Bao.
Bai Yinjun, who hadn't spoken since entering, now had a furrowed brow and a strange look in his eyes.
He quietly approached Tang Bugui and Xiao Subao, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the little Taoist's voice.
"Everyone be careful, something's not right here!"
The young Taoist priest was quite capable; sensing something was amiss, he frowned.
He had promised his master and mistress that he would protect Xiao Su Bao and Bai Yin Jun, so no matter what, he had to protect them.
Tang Bugui also sensed something unusual. When they arrived, several people were staring at them and scrutinizing them.
That kind of scrutiny is extremely uncomfortable!
More importantly, those people seemed to be acting with malice!
"Don't worry, nothing will happen!" Little Su Bao said softly.
The Lin family members possessed merit, though not everyone did, but those she saw all had a considerable amount of merit.
However, they are still entangled in some karmic obstacles. If it weren't for these obstacles, they probably wouldn't be so unlucky.
"What exactly is going on?"
Little Su Bao was thinking to herself when she suddenly saw someone.
To be precise, it was a little girl!
This is the first little girl here besides Lin Qiqi and the others.
Seemingly sensing Xiao Su Bao's gaze, the little girl quickly glanced at Xiao Su Bao and gave her a bright smile.
But Xiao Su Bao was so frightened that she trembled all over.
The little girl's teeth were very sharp, and they looked like... a rake.
More importantly, when she smiled, there were wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
Little Su Bao clenched her fists and instinctively grabbed Tang Bugui's hand.
Tang Bugui felt the force in his hand, and he looked down at his daughter.
Tang Bugui noticed something was off about his daughter and followed her gaze.
Just then, they saw the little girl. Their eyes met, and the little girl seemed to be frightened by Tang Bugui's gaze, so she turned and ran away.
"Don't be afraid, Su Bao... Daddy's here!" Tang Bugui gently patted Su Bao's head and said in a gentle voice.
Before Xiao Su Bao could even speak, she seemed to sense something.
She turned around and saw a figure.
She was an old woman!
Little Su Bao felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being watched!
The young Taoist priest had a chance to react, and immediately turned his head to look over.
But all that was left was the old woman's back.
This Lin Family Village seems rather eerie!
While everyone was thinking this, the young Taoist priest took out several talismans from his pocket and secretly gave one to each person.
"Everyone be careful!" Tang Qi stopped joking. He always had a keen sense of things, otherwise he wouldn't have been so unlucky, but he always managed to survive by chance.
When we arrived at Grandpa Lin's house, we found it to be a three-section house built of stone.
This place is quite interesting; they dug a deep pit in the ground, so when you come in, you don't feel hot at all, but rather a cool breeze.
This is something that wealthy families often do, so it's not too surprising.
But the fact that they can make this kind of thing in the mountains proves that these people still enjoy life.
