The bloody breath wasn't heavy, but it was very distinct.

After Lin Zhao sensed that something was wrong, he decisively took a step back, but it was obviously too late, in the darkness, a pair of hands stretched out from nowhere, directly on Lin Zhao's neck, and two fingers clasped Lin Zhao's throat!

Lin Zhao could clearly feel that the force on these two fingers could crush his throat at will.

So, he stopped very sensibly.

"Silence."

In the darkness, a slightly hoarse voice came.

"I have no ill will."

Lin Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

No matter who this person is, being able to say this sentence means that this person should not kill him, and after the young man swallowed his saliva, his voice trembled a little: "Dare to ask...... What is a strong man? ”

"Close the door and come in."

Lin Zhao walked into the room very obediently, and then reached out to close the door.

Seeing that Lin Zhao was so obedient, the man in the secret hesitated slightly, and then let go of the hand holding Lin Zhao's neck, and his voice was hoarse: "It's just a person in the rivers and lakes who has no reputation, and he has something to entrust the little boy to do." ”

After he let go of Lin Zhao, Lin Zhao leaned against the wooden door of his house and glanced back at the person.

At this time, his eyes had adapted to the darkness, and he could vaguely see that this person was an eight-foot-tall man, more than a head taller than the current Lin Zhao, and he could vaguely see that this person was a sword.

The smell of blood in the room came from this man, and it was obvious that he had either been injured or had killed many people, and his body was stained with blood.

Lin Zhao swallowed his saliva, barely calming himself down, his voice was still a little trembling: "May I ask the strong man...... What are the commands? ”

Secretly, this person was mostly injured, took a few steps back, sat on the only chair in the room, and after taking a few breaths, asked, "Are you ...... Children of the Lin family? ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhao had some doubts in his heart, but he still replied silently: "Is it the Lin family of Xingwenfang that the strong man asked?" ”

The man nodded and said, "There is no second Lin family in Yuezhou Mansion. ”

Lin Zhao smiled bitterly at this time: "I'm afraid the strong man has recognized the wrong person, although my surname is Lin, but I am a side branch of the Lin family, not a child of the Lin family in Xingwenfang." ”

"The surname Lin is enough."

The man sat on the chair, as if his wound was aching, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes...... The traitor wants to harm Yuan Dagong, and I also ask you to go to the Lin family on my behalf, inform Yuan Dagong, and let him be cautious, and it is best not ......to go out for nearly a year."

Hearing the words "Yuan Dagong", Lin Zhao was stunned.

Although he grew up in Donghu Town and has not been to Yuezhou Mansion for more than ten years, he really knows who this man's "Yuan Dagong" is.

The Lin family's poetry and books have been handed down for more than 100 years, and almost every generation will have people who are among the jinshi, and the contemporary Lin family has a total of two living jinshi, one of whom is a prefect in other places, and the other is ...... It is Lin Jian Lin Yuanda, the right attendant of the official worship department!

The experience of this Yuan Dagong is legendary, eleven-year-old Xiucai, fifteen-year-old Zhongjuren, nineteen-year-old gold list title, third place in the first class, became the Tanhualang of the Great Zhou, and then rose and fell in the court for 20 years, all the way up, and finally became the right waiter of the household!

Officials of this level, who are already at the top of the pyramid, are the core of the core of the country.

However, it is a pity that this young waiter, who was only forty years old and became the third-in-command of the household department, annoyed the emperor last year because of his outspokenness, was dismissed from office, and rushed back to his hometown in Yuezhou.

Despite this, the story of this Lin family prodigy is still legendary in the entire Yuezhou Mansion, especially the people surnamed Lin, and there are few people who don't know "Yuan Dagong".

Lin Shilang returned to Yuezhou at the beginning of last year, although he was not born in the main line of the Lin family, but after all, he was in a high position, and after returning to Yuezhou, he was invited back to Xingwenfang Lin Mansion by Lin Sizheng, the eldest lord of the Lin family, and more than a year has passed since then.

Lin Zhao's brows furrowed, he stood in place and was silent for a while before asking, "How did the strong man know that someone was trying to kill Yuan Dagong?" ”

The man gritted his teeth and said: "Last year, Yuan Dagong wrote to participate in the big traitor, but he was killed by this thief and lost his official position. ”

"I found out about this a month ago, and my brothers ...... rushed to Yuezhou Mansion to secretly protect Yuan Dagong until yesterday's ......"

He spoke intermittently, and was clearly not lightly injured.

"Yesterday...... My brothers found the man's men, and they killed and wounded each other......"

"Of the four brothers, I'm the only one left...... Alone, now he is powerless to protect Yuan Dagong, a few days ago...... I waited to see the little boy near the forest house, I ...... It's inconvenient to go directly to the Lin family, so I can only ask the little boy to go to the Lin family to report for me. ”

Lin Zhao secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.

He originally thought that his luck was too bad to encounter such a thing, but he didn't expect that he was targeted by these people a few days ago.

The man was obviously not lightly injured, and at this time his forehead was slowly sweating, and his speech was becoming more and more blurred.

"Yuan Da Gong...... It is a rare good official, no matter what, he can't die in the hands of traitors, if Yuan Dagong is also killed, there will be no hope for the imperial court. ”

His voice was weak.

"Little boy...... Help me ......."

"I have two things that I don't understand."

Seeing that this person was getting weaker and weaker, and basically no longer posed any threat to himself, Lin Zhao touched his chin and asked thoughtfully: "First, if it is really as you said, there are people in the court who want to harm Yuan Dagong, then why did Yuan Dagong return to his hometown for a year and he didn't do anything, and he had to wait until today?" ”

When this man with a knife heard this, he was a little more energetic, and he sneered slightly: "Yuan Dagong went to visit him last year, of course he didn't dare to attack Yuan Dagong directly, so he had to wait a year before he dared to do such an evil thing." ”

Lin Zhao nodded and continued to ask, "Why don't you go and inform Yuan Dagong yourself?" ”

"We all have lawsuits, and I'm afraid of bringing trouble to Yuan Dagong......"

Yes, the co-authors are still some terrorists.

Lin Zhao didn't have much expression on his face, but he was secretly surprised in his heart.

According to the usual situation, those who are officials and those who are mixed in the rivers and lakes have always been on the opposite side, and this elder of his own clan, as an official, has managed to let these people in the rivers and lakes sacrifice their lives to protect them, how rare it is!

In Lin Zhao's memory, there were very few officials in the other world who could do this level.

The strong man seemed to have lost too much blood, and his voice was getting quieter and quieter.

He looked at Lin Zhao, and there was already some pleading in his tone.

"Please also ask the little boy...... Do a favor! ”

Because the injury was so serious, after saying this, he couldn't hold on anymore, and simply collapsed in the chair and fainted.

At this time, Lin Zhao had already stood up, lit the candle in the room, and then looked the sturdy swordsman up and down.

He was silent.

Now, there are two roads in front of him, the first way is naturally to take advantage of the strong man's sleep, tie him up and send him to the yamen, so that most of them can still receive a reward, as for the life and death of that "Yuan Dagong", it has nothing to do with Lin Zhao.

The second way is to follow this person's confession and send a letter to Yuanda Gazette, so that Lin Zhao is very likely to get the favor of a court boss, but it is more likely to be involved in a struggle between court bosses!

For the current Lin Zhao, the most suitable way is naturally to choose the first path.

At this time, the moonlight spread down, through the window, and covered Lin Zhao's young man's face.

It can be easily seen by the moonlight, and Lin Sanlang at this time is quite entangled in his heart.
