Chapter 158: The Road Meets the Killer
Yan Jihe was silent for a moment and said, "Now that the Yan family is also involved, it will be inconvenient for us to investigate this case again."
Seeing Yan Jihe say this, Lin Tang hurriedly said, "Of course I believe in the Yan family's master."
Yan Jihe raised his hand and waved, shook his head, and said, "It's one thing for you to believe, but things still have to be done officially, and this matter can only bother Lin Gongzi, of course, Lin Gongzi can still live in Yan Mansion, I will tell you to go down, Lin Gongzi can check whatever he wants."
Suddenly, the person who investigated the case became alone, Yan Jihe and Yan Yu had to avoid suspicion, and Lin Tang did not slow down.
But seeing that Yan Jihe lowered his head a little tiredly, waved his hand, and said, "Yu'er, dad is back, you are so good to entertain Lin Gongzi", and left.
Lin Tang felt a little inexplicable, Yan Jihe was fine just now, but now he suddenly said that he was tired. Seeing this, Yan Yu hurriedly said, "My father has been taking care of me recently, he is physically and mentally exhausted, I have been persuading him to rest quickly, he said that he wants to wait for you to come back to see if there are any clues, so he has been holding on like this, I think our family is good to avoid suspicion, and my father can rest and rest."
Lin Tang had no choice but to nod, and Yan Yu wrote down these four families that could use the government's common silver taels on paper and handed them to Lin Tang, namely the Fengcheng Chen family, the Yuedong Wang family, the *Yang family, and the Nanxi Yan family.
The Chen family in Fengcheng can be ruled out, the previous zombie disaster almost wiped out the Chen family, if it was really the Chen family's people who did it, they would not use such a broken way to clear their suspicions.
The rest of the Yuedong Wang family, the Yang family, and Lin Tang didn't know about it, Yan Yu gave Lin Tang an idea and asked him to go to the tavern to listen to it, that is the place where gossip spreads most intensively, I want to know what gossip is, go to the best place there, even if I can't know any useful news, it's good to know more about these two.
Lin Tang felt that Yan Yu's idea was really good, so he said goodbye to Yan Yu and went to one of the most prosperous taverns in Nanxi, this tavern is not the largest, the facilities are not very good, the table is tattered, and it is precisely because of this that the price is also cheap, and the peddlers and pawns will rest when they pass by, it is a mixed place.
Lin Tang found a table and sat down, asked for a pot of wine, and drank it slowly, while listening to the people around him, and after receiving all kinds of miscellaneous information in the middle, he finally got some useful news.
"Hey, have you heard, that's about the Yang family," one said.
"What's the matter?"
"Take the rebellion of the adopted son of the Yang family, I heard that I went outside and built another Yang mansion, specifically against his godfather."
"It's really a wolf that can't be raised, so I see that the child is still close to himself, at least there is a layer of blood relationship."
"That's true, but I've heard that this adopted son was actually forced," the man said mysteriously, as if he had some important news.
The other person really asked curiously, "How did you get forced to do it?"
The man continued, "This adopted son, although he has the identity of the * Yang family, but after all, he is not related by blood, since he was a child in the Yang family, even a servant can bully him casually, originally the adopted son was still loyal to the Yang family, but who can withstand such bullying, and finally couldn't help but betray."
Lin Tang frowned, thinking that if the adopted son of the Yang family wanted to take revenge on the society because of this matter, it would be possible to make this zombie, but in this place of three religions and nine streams, I am afraid that the words he said also carried some water, Lin Tang did not completely believe it, but he still included the * Yang family in the object of suspicion.
I heard another table person say, "Has the matter of this Wang family been resolved, which Wang family?" It's the Yuedong Wang family, you don't know about this."
"What's the matter?"
"Hey, you're really asking the right person, it's someone else, it's really not necessarily clear, thanks to my wife's cousin's brother-in-law is on an errand in the Yuedong Wang's mansion, so I can know, I heard that the palace has been a family for so many years and can't give birth to a son, didn't a concubine just add a son to him recently, but he was so happy, he invited the whole city to eat a three-day flowing water banquet, and the result was ah", the man clapped his hands and said, "That son is not his!" ”
Lin Tang listened and thought silently in his heart, although this reason was a little reluctant, but what if the head of the Yuedong Wang family caused these things because he couldn't give birth to a son psychopath, after all, how much this ancient person valued his son, especially his high social status.
Lin Tang stayed in the tavern for a day, his ears were deaf, the sky had darkened, and there were fewer people in the tavern, so Lin Tang walked out with a groggy head, and there were few people on the street.
Although there are many harvests today, Lin Tang feels that there are few people who can believe it, this person passed the news to another person, and the rumors have already been messed up, who knows how many things were added to the middle Lin Tang rubbed his temples and walked towards the Yan Mansion.
Walking and walking, he suddenly felt a few more footsteps behind him, getting closer and closer, Lin Tang bent down suddenly, and a pair of hands suddenly poked at the place of his head, the nails were sharp and long, Lin Tang took a step to the side, raised his head, and sure enough, there were three or four zombies behind him.
There were zombies in Nanxi again, and this time there were so many at once, Lin Tang didn't have time to think too much, a few zombies rushed at him frantically, fortunately, these zombies couldn't do anything to Lin Tang, Lin Tang dodged the hand of a zombie, and hammered the zombie's head with a fist, and the zombie was loaded on an iron plate, * splashed, I don't understand.
The remaining few were also easily dealt with by Lin Tang, and Lin Tang clapped his hands, ready to see if there were any useful clues on these zombies. As soon as he bent down, there was a dinging sound next to his face, and Lin Tang followed the sound and saw that it was a small arrow, which seemed to be shot from a crossbow.
Who is it!
Unexpectedly, he put a cold arrow behind his back, Lin Tang looked up, and suddenly four people flashed out of the darkness, one of them was holding a bow and crossbow in his hand, it seemed that he was the one who wanted to quietly shoot Lin Tang just now.
Lin Tang didn't expect that he would still be able to enjoy the treatment of being assassinated in ancient times, these four people didn't give Lin Tang another chance to think nonsense, so they took out the dagger from their arms and rushed towards Lin Tang.
Lin Tang didn't move, and when those people were about to approach, they suddenly released the true qi around them, and the true qi gushed out, rushing those people out a few meters away, those people didn't care about resting, stood up, and rushed over again, this time Lin Tang didn't dare to hold it up.
The method can be used at most once, and if it is used more, it will not work, Lin Tang dodged the dagger of one person, grabbed the man's arm with his hand, and flicked his numb tendons, the man's hand was numb, and the knife fell to the ground, but soon the other person was entangled.
Lin Tang fought with several people for a long time, but there was no result, Lin Tang, as a person living in modern times, asked him to kill, he really couldn't do it, zombies are another side, after all, in his eyes, zombies are already a dead person.
But although Lin Tang thought so, the purpose of those four killers was to kill Lin Tang, not to show mercy, Lin Tang could only try to subdue them in a way that did not endanger their lives, but it was very troublesome, after all, these four people were also professional killers.
Just when Lin Tang was a little exhausted, one person shouted, "Young Master Lin! ”
When the four killers heard this, the four of them glanced at each other, and quickly disappeared into the darkness, Lin Tang looked up and saw that it was Yan Yu and Yan Ruomeng, Lin Tang hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Why are you here."
It turned out that the two of them saw that Lin Tang didn't come back so late, and now it was not peaceful outside, they were worried that Lin Tang would encounter zombies, so they wanted to come and see him, but they didn't expect to see Lin Tang's figure just now, but they found that he was fighting with a few people in black, and those people were professional killers at a glance, Yan Ruomeng was anxious, so he shouted out.
"Brother Lin, are you okay?" Yan Yu asked with concern.
Lin Tang smiled and said, "Don't worry, a few of them are not my opponents yet", suddenly remembered the zombies he had dealt with, and hurriedly said, "By the way, I still have a few more... Before he finished speaking, Lin Tang turned around, and there was nothing behind him, nothing left.
