Chapter 11: Lin Hai
The Lin Clan's martial arts training ground is completely boiling today, and the square that can accommodate thousands of people is now empty, and the flow of people is constantly pouring in from outside the field, as if it is going to explode this small martial arts training ground.
Among these people, most of them are the disciples of the Lin clan and the outer disciples who belong to the Lin clan, and the rest have the families of the outer disciples, and the people from other families in Qingshan County are already county officials.
As one of the three major families in Qingshan County, the Lin family's strength is there. Holding such a big event, other families and the county guard will naturally not give face to the Lin family, and almost none of the families who received the invitation came.
Even with the royal family, which has always been an enemy of the Lin clan, dozens of people have come today. The Lin clan did not send them invitations, and these people could be said to have come uninvited.
This is a very strange thing, looking at the past, since the two clans completely fell out, the royal family has not participated in this grand event of the Lin clan for ten years.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken - not according to good intentions. However, the Lin clan's approach was also very incomprehensible, and they did not turn them away, and sent the great elders of the clan to personally welcome dozens of people to the martial arts training ground and arrange seats.
Those who come are not good and those who are good do not come, the head of the Lin family is not a child, and he can definitely guess that the royal family's move is ill-intentioned, but he did not turn it away. can't help but feel that the Lin clan is really a big clan, this demeanor, this mentality, it doesn't seem to take the conspiracy of the royal family in their eyes.
Hearing some of the discussions of other families, almost all of them were praising the Lin clan on this matter, and the great elder led by the royal family immediately pulled down.
However, the calmness of the Lin clan was beyond his expectations, could it be that the Lin clan had already prepared? Looking at Lin Sheng, the head of the Lin clan on the stage, he seemed to want to see him through, so as to determine whether he was saying that he was playing tricks, or if he was really prepared. However, he failed, and he couldn't see through Lin Sheng at all.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. The Great Elder of the Wang Family muttered. Then he glanced at the people of the Lin clan in the martial arts training field, and said coldly: "Just rely on these people of the Lin clan, even if they know, what can they do." A month later, it will be the day when your Lin clan will be wiped out. From then on, in Qingshan County, my royal family had the final say. ”
"That's a lot of people!"
Lin Xiao's family of four had just finished breakfast at home, and they had already arrived at the door of the martial arts training ground at this moment. Looking at the sea of people in the field, Lin Xiao couldn't help but mutter.
The family was about to enter the arena when suddenly a shout came from behind them, stopping the four of them.
"Isn't this Lin Fan?"
As they spoke, a lean man approached them with a woman and a child. It seems that these three people are also a family.
Seeing the lean man, Lin Fan's face suddenly turned cold. Looking at the situation, the two don't seem to have a good relationship.
"Is there something wrong?"
asked coldly, Lin Fan seemed unwilling to deal with this person.
The lean man is also a member of the Lin clan, named Lin Hai, and he is also one of the twenty-one martial artists of the Lin family, but he is only a martial artist. The woman next to him is his wife Zhao Hui, and the child next to him is his son Lin Hu.
Lin Fan and Lin Hai do have a grudge, and almost all the people of the Lin clan know about it.
A year ago, after Lin Hai broke through to the martial artist, he went to apply for the position of elder. The Lin clan has regulations that people from the Lin clan in the martial arts realm are eligible to apply for the position of elder. However, it requires a vote from all current elders, and more than half of them can be promoted to elders.
However, this Lin Hai usually has a bad reputation, and he is insidious and cunning, which offends many clansmen. In order to be successfully promoted to elder, Lin Hai moved everywhere and even bribed the major elders. Among them is Lin Fan, who is also one of the eleven elders of the Lin clan.
And Lin Fan is more upright, and he encountered this situation. Not only did he flatly refuse, but he also reported the matter to the head of the family. The consequences can be imagined, Lin Hai was not only heavily fined, but also permanently disqualified from applying for elders. Since then, Lin Hai has hated Lin Fan to the core.
Lin Hai glanced at Lin Xiao and sneered: "I heard that someone went to the back door of the head of the family a few days ago to open the back door for his son, I don't know what Elder Lin Fan, who has always been fair, thinks about this matter. ”
Although Lin Hai said it clearly, those who knew the inside story knew that Lin Hai said that his "someone" was referring to Lin Xiao. The so-called "going through the back door" refers to the Rensheng store incident.
It seemed that Lin Fan didn't care about Lin Hai knowing about this, and said coldly: "The person you are talking about is me." Still, as you say, so what. ”
"So what? Elder Lin Fan, so domineering!" Lin Hai snorted coldly, and then said with disdain, "I want to ask, what is the difference between your behavior and mine? Don't worry, I will report this matter to the Council of Elders, and I will let all the people of the Lin clan know that you Lin Fan and I are the same dog." ”
"You are willing to fall into your own depravity, thinking that your own garbage is fine, don't catch up with others. ”
Lin Hai actually threatened Lin Fan with the matter of Rensheng's store, and Lin Xiao knew that Lin Fan did this completely for him. Seeing Lin Fan being slandered by Lin Hai, an inexplicable anger rose from his heart and said angrily.
"Little waste, what do you say. You dare to insult my father, see how I clean you up later. ”
Lin Hu took a step forward and said viciously. And what he said about cleaning up is nothing more than challenging Lin Xiao at the coming-of-age ceremony.
Lin Qi couldn't look at it for a long time, so he also stepped forward, not to be outdone, and said fiercely: "I think you are a waste, if you have the guts, you will participate in the family competition." If I meet you, see how I clean you up. ”
Lin Hu was speechless by what Lin Qi said, and he was shocked there, having nothing to say. With the strength of his fifth-order martial artist, he could only be completely abused against Lin Qi.
Lin Fan glanced at Lin Hai coldly, and said lightly: "Whether I am the same kind of person as you or not, I know it in my heart, and you also know it in my heart." In addition, I can tell you that if your son dares to challenge Lin Xiao today, then after today, I will challenge you Lin Hai in the internal war post of the clan. ”
After that, Lin Fan said no more. took Lin Xiao and the others into the martial arts training ground, leaving only Lin Hai's family there.
The intra-clan war post is a form of challenge within the Lin clan. There are so many people in the Lin clan, there will always be bumps and bumps between the clansmen, and there will be contradictions. Private fighting is forbidden within the Lin clan, and if both sides feel that they can't resolve it, one side can issue an intra-clan war post to challenge the other party.
At this moment, Lin Hai's face was pale, and he felt an unprecedented shame when he was threatened like this by Lin Fan. However, he couldn't do anything, if Lin Fan really fought in the lower clan, he shouldn't be, shouldn't be.
With his strength, responding is tantamount to seeking abuse, and if he doesn't, he will lose face.
Lin Fan's trick can not be described as non-poisonous.
