Chapter 78: The Pirate's Treasure
fixed on a stone stove nestled within.“This...is a blast furnace, isn't it It's different from an ordinary blacksmith's forge.” Liao Hongying asked.Yang Lin was a little surprised: "Have you seen this...Whoever dares to attack my village will be met with my wrath!
"Dead!!"
Leaving behind this sentence, and the bodies strewn across the ground, Yang Lin led the people of Koushan Village away without looking back.
"Great!"
"Good!!"
The onlookers erupted in cheers once again.
On the way back, Li Yuxiang followed Yang Lin and asked, "Will these things we did today really scare them"
Yang Lin shook his head. "I don't know."
"I don't know" Li Yuxiang was surprised.
"I don't know if I can deter them, because human greed has no bottom line! Interests make people crazy, and once a person goes crazy, they will do irrational things."
But what we did today, it must be helpful!
"Why" asked Li Yuhua.
Yang Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "Because I showed them my bottom line! At the same time, I also made it clear to them that if they push us too far, we will not hesitate to use any means necessary!"
"My lady, do you know what kind of person is the most terrifying in this world"
Li Yuyao shook her head in confusion.
"He's a madman!"
"Crazy" Li Yuxiang questioned again, puzzled.
>Because lunatics act without order, they do whatever they want, and before a lunatic acts, they don't consider the pros and cons. They might stab you for no reason, or suddenly turn on you while chatting amiably.
Li Yuchun suddenly realized, "I understand! You want them to know that you can also go crazy!"
Yang Lin nodded.
"How will the Zhou family and Zhao family respond this week What you did today has humiliated the Zhou family. They wouldn't just let it go, would they" Li Yuyao asked.
Yang Lin spoke, "If they're smart, they won't come bother me for a while."
Li Yuyao nodded.
Put yourself in their shoes, if you were someone from the Zhou family, you would probably still be dumbfounded right now!
All the bandits who went to capture someone are dead, their bodies were even thrown back. If we don't figure out what happened, then going after Yang Lin again... next time, the head being thrown back might be theirs!
As Yang Lin just said, no one dares to provoke a madman easily!
What then
Li Yuyao pressed, “Our village's capabilities and our crossbows, these things can’t be hidden. If they want to investigate, they’ll find out sooner or later.”
Yang Lin let out a cold snort: "By the time they finish their investigation, our strength will be incomparable to what it is now!"
Li Yuxiang's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized.
He recalled a saying Yang Lin had once made.
Look at the problem from a developmental perspective!
Kao Shan Village underwent such drastic changes in just one month!
If given more time, they are sure to grow even stronger!
Thinking of Yang Lin and Koushan Village, this terrifying growth rate, Li Yuyao saw the possibility of regaining her throne!
"Right"
Li Yuyáo worried, “When we beheaded him, a bandit said there were still bandits left on Black Wind Mountain. If we didn’t eradicate them all, those bandits might really come back for revenge!” Yang Lin smiled, “I've already sent people. If everything goes smoothly, they should have taken over Black Wind Mountain by now!”
"What"
Li Yuhua was surprised again.
Yang Lin had already made all the arrangements
And yet she remained utterly oblivious!
Seeing Li Yuyao's surprised expression, Yang Lin explained: "After we formulated the plan last night, I led people to interrogate those captured bandits. The results were all the same."
On Black Wind Mountain there are now only six bandits. There is only one path up the mountain, and every four hours, two bandits take turns guarding it.
The path up the mountain is treacherous, easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Li Yuyao had just shown worry on her face when Yang Lin continued, "But fortunately, during yesterday's interrogation, we obtained some useful information."
What information
Yang Lin's eyes gleamed: "Of the four bandits captured, one was the second-in-command of Black Wind Mountain. He revealed a secret passage that bypasses the checkpoints on the mountain road and leads directly to the summit from the back!"
And this secret passage was left by those few bandit leaders for their own escape, so the small-time thugs didn't know about it!
"Madam, haven't you noticed that Kong Liang is gone After we left this morning, I had him lead twelve men and nine crossbows to Black Wind Mountain!"
"After we leave the city and head back to the village, let's go check out that bandit hideout!"
Before leaving the city, Yang Lin took out 200 taels of silver and gave it to Zhao Fu貴, asking him to lead people to purchase some grain, cloth, and meat, bringing them back to the village to distribute among everyone.
After leaving the city, Yang Lin separated from the main force, taking only Li Yuyao and Liao Hongying with him to Heifeng Mountain.
Although they were only three men, each carried a crossbow and had plenty of arrows. Even if they encountered a small band of bandits, they would not be afraid.
Mount Heifeng was more than thirty miles away from the county town, and it took two hours to get there. When Yang Lin arrived at the foot of Mount Heifeng with his two female companions, he saw Qin Shuang, a member of the bodyguard team, waiting for him.
"Uncle Lin!"
Seeing Yang Lin, Qin Shuang hurried over, her face full of surprise: "Brother Lin, we won! All six bandits were completely wiped out by us!"
Qin Shuang was radiant with joy.
"Are there any injuries Is everyone alright" Yang Lin hurriedly asked.
"Nobody was hurt! Everyone is doing well!"
Qin Shuang excitedly said, "Brother, the crossbow you gave me is really amazing! Those bandits hadn't figured out what was happening before they were shot dead by our random arrows!"
Hearing that everyone was fine, Yang Lin finally let go of his worries.
"Lin Ge, let's head up the mountain! Liang Ge told me to wait here for you. We searched the mountain for a long time and didn't find much money."
"Brother Liang said that the bandits' money shouldn't be just that amount, but no matter how we looked, we couldn't find it. Brother Liang said that we could only wait for you to see if you had any way."
Qin Shuanggang was eighteen years old, full of youthful vigor. Today, he followed others to kill bandits and search for treasure. His spirit remained high throughout the day.
"Oh Let's go take a look."
Although Yang Lin knew there were no bandits left on the mountain, he still strung his crossbow and kept it at the ready, always alert.
>Until they reached the summit and came to the bandit's lair, where they saw Kong Liang and others.
"Uncle Lin!"
"Uncle Lin!"
All the guards rushed forward.
Once upon a time, they respected Yang Lin because he paid them wages and improved their lives.
After what happened yesterday, this group of young boys looked up to Yang Lin with deep admiration!
"Lin Ge, you're finally here! We searched the whole mountain and only found over a hundred taels of silver. We heard that the bandits on Black Wind Mountain were quite wealthy, they shouldn't have only this amount. Do you think the bandits might have hidden the silver somewhere" Kong Liang asked eagerly. By giving me the wealth, he's buying my promise, it's his best choice!"Li Yuxiang sat there, listening silently to this, her clenched fist trembling.Once upon a time, when his father was on his death...
