When more than a dozen craftsmen were busy in the Lin family, Lin Qing in the county town was also methodically buying the materials used by Lin Feng to make the divine thunder.

By the time they were all bought, the sun was already sinking. So Lin Qing arranged for others to send the materials back to the town. After sending everyone away, he found an inn to live in and fell asleep.

When Lin Qing woke up, it was already late at night.

He went to the basin and submerged his entire face in the water, which he lifted out of the water after about half an hour.

After twisting his neck a few times, he suddenly felt refreshed, so he wiped the water on his face, quickly changed into his night clothes, gently opened the door and left the inn quietly.

Lin Qing came to the street, the night was dark, and the surroundings were as quiet as death, which could be described as the moon was dark and the wind was high, when people were killed and set on fire. However, Lin Qing didn't come to kill people and set fires, what he wanted to do was to steal the word list of Wang's post.

Originally, he planned to steal the one outside the city and rush back, but at this time the city gate was closed, and he could only steal the one posted in the city. Lin Qing stood on tiptoe, walked lightly, and ran towards the west gate quickly, disappearing into the boundless night in the blink of an eye.

"Hey... Lao Zhao, did you hear any sounds? On the tower of the West Gate, a soldier on night moved another soldier who was lying on the ground and dozing off, and said softly.

"Hey, what's the noise in the middle of the night, are you hallucinating?" The lying soldier replied impatiently, not bothering to open his eyes.

"Listen to it, is there a sound of 'Boom, Boom' like tearing something off?"

The lying soldier opened his eyes and listened attentively, "What a tear, it must be a rat biting something." After saying that, he continued to close his eyes and fall asleep.

"No, it seems to be coming from under the city gate, is there anything to eat there, how can a mouse bite there!"

"Oh, if you don't worry, go and see, grind and chirp, don't disturb my sleep here." The lying soldier said angrily.

Although the soldier surnamed Zhao said a few words, the awake soldier was still not at ease, so he picked up the lantern and decided to go down to take a look.

At this time, a man in black was sandwiching his feet on a piece of wood leaning against the city, carefully tearing the notice at the city gate.

I heard the sound of footsteps on the city wall, pulled hard, and ripped off the whole piece of paper with a "bang", took it into my arms, put my feet on the forest a little, and a somersault fell to the ground, and before the wood fell to the ground, it disappeared without a trace.

The sound of the wood falling to the ground was naturally loud, and the soldier who had just walked on the steps heard it and immediately ran down.

Thinking about it, he was quite bold, and in this era of thieves, he dared to come alone to check the situation.

"Lao Zhao, it's not good, come down quickly!" When the soldier suddenly shouted, his eyes stared incredulously at the place where the empty post had been.

After hearing his shout, the soldier surnamed Zhao jumped up, picked up the ring head knife beside him, and ran towards the city.

Apparently he didn't really fall asleep just now.

"What's wrong?" The soldier surnamed Zhang came to the soldier who had just called.

"Look, the notice is gone!"

The soldier surnamed Zhao originally thought that some thief, criminal or something like that wanted to enter and leave the city at night, but he never thought that the notice had been stolen.

This was the first time he had encountered this, and he said with great doubts: "It's strange that I have seen people stolen gold and silver, but I have never heard of the theft of even this notice." Could it be that this notice is still worth a lot of money, so that people would venture to steal it in the middle of the night? ”

"We can't think of any reason for this. Let's hurry up and report this to the adults. After all, this notice was lost by our brothers during the night, and it was reported as soon as possible, even if the adult punishment would be lighter! With that, the soldier was leaving.

"Believe it or not, our brothers will be punished more severely!" The soldier surnamed Zhang grabbed him.

"Why?"

"Old horse, you just don't like to use your brain. Now our county master may be sleeping soundly in the arms of that beauty, let's go and stir up his good dreams now, do you say that we have good fruits to eat? The soldier surnamed Zhang glanced at Lao Ma, "Besides, don't you know who posted this list?" ”

"Who?" The old horse asked!

"Hey, it's really in vain that I've been guarding the city with my old Zhao for so many years. This Simon surnamed Wang, naturally it was posted by the Wang's family, have you seen such notices in other city gates in the past few days? ”

Listening to Lao Zhao's tone, he must have been extremely disappointed in the IQ of his brother Ma.

Lao Ma didn't say anything, waiting for Lao Zhao's next words.

"Maybe our county master doesn't want to take care of this matter. In the past, you could hear which of the bandits had been dealt with. Since it was posted by the Wang family, if you want to report this matter, you have to go to the Wang family, and it is impossible for our brothers to get a few rewards from them. ”

I have to say that this soldier surnamed Zhang has a really bright head, and he is really a little condescending to defend the city here.

"Lao Zhao, after your analysis, this matter is really so reasonable. Then let's wait for dawn to report to the Wang family. Lao Ma said.

"Go now, this matter must be very important to the Wang family. Go, I'm here to watch. Remember to just talk about this and don't ask anything else. Lao Zhao advised.

"Hey, then I'll go, you alone here to be careful." After the old horse finished speaking, he took the lantern and left.

After he walked away, Lao Zhao looked at the mark left by the list party and fell into deep thought.

"Master, master, get up quickly, something is wrong!"

In the king's mansion in the west of the city, a man knocked vigorously on the door.

After a while, the lights in the room turned on, the door opened, and a middle-aged man in his forties with a goatee walked out in his coat, "What's the matter, these three watches are noisy in the middle of the night?" ”

This person is the current head of the Wang family - Wang Lin.

This man was quite a businessman, and since he took over, the Wang family has grown from a small town like Fenglin to a county seat within a few years.

In recent years, it has competed with some old businessmen in the city and has become the largest merchant in the county.

However, this person has a ruthless heart and a rather strange temper.

The knocker saluted the old man and said, "Master, it's not good, the officers and soldiers guarding the city at the west gate came to say that the notice was stolen!" ”

After the man finished speaking, he looked at Wang Lin cautiously, for fear that what he said would make Wang Lin feel that he was not worthy of being called up in the middle of the night, and would punish him.

Wang Lin stared at the man with straight eyes, obviously how unhappy he was when he was called in the middle of the night, "Don't hear it wrong, who is so bold to steal that notice?" ”

"Master, the villain can hear clearly, I know the military master who delivered the letter, our big brother Ma who guards the west city gate. He's still outside, if you don't believe him, you can ask him personally. ”

I saw that after hearing this, Wang Lin put away his anger, thought for a moment as if he had thought of something, and suddenly kicked him down again, and said angrily: "Go and reward that Zhao Junye with some money, just say that he didn't call me." ”

"Yes, sir!" The man got up and ran, not daring to be teased for half a minute.

"Come on, ask Wang Fu to come to the study to see me!" After the person who called him walked away, Wang Lin shouted loudly.

After a while, I saw a middle-aged man running and sorting out his clothes and coming to Wang Lin, "Big brother, what happened, you woke me up now, I slept soundly!"

Wang Lin didn't speak, but his face was cloudy, and he went straight into the house and waved Wang Fu in.

When Wang Qiang saw Wang Lin's expression, where did he dare to say more, he walked in gloomily, and was just about to sit down at the table, but he heard Wulin say: "Close the door!"

"What's the matter, you have to close the door, and make it mysterious!"

Although he said so, he obediently walked over and closed the door.

"Come and sit down!" Wang Lin said in a stiff tone.

Wang Fu looked at Wang Lin timidly, and at this moment, Wang Lin's face was as dense as a bowel, which made Wang Fu's heart beat a drum: Could it be that my eldest brother knew about secretly moving the money to buy a girl. Hey, it looks like we're just waiting to be cleaned up.

"The sign we put up at the gate of the city has been stolen, who is it and what is the purpose of it? Tell me about it! Wang Lin said.

"Ahh Oh... What the? ”

Wang Fu's expression was very interesting, he thought that the "good deeds" he had done had been exposed, and he had prepared for the worst.

Unexpectedly, his terrible eldest brother said that it was not this matter, and his hanging heart suddenly fell.

But before it could hit the ground, it was suspended by the accusation that it had been stolen, and the rollercoaster ups and downs made his little heart really unbearable.

"What? Are you listening to me? Wang Lin saw his startled appearance, and said very angrily.

"Listening, the younger brother can't figure out who would do such a boring thing as stealing a notice, unless the notice has a great effect." Wang Fu came back to his senses and swallowed a few words indiscriminately.

Wang Lin became even more angry when he heard this, "Aren't you talking nonsense?" It doesn't work, who would take such a big risk to steal. I'm asking you to think about who it will be and what its purpose will be. ”

"Uh, big brother, let me think about it first..."

Wang Fu stood up and stomped slowly in the room, "This notice was posted in the name of the government after we got the acquiescence of the government, but what I didn't expect was that after the county order was afraid of helping us, Jiang, Zhu, and Su also asked him to do similar things and cause more trouble, so he faked it as the county government and then blocked the mouths of those families."

No more than five fingers shall know of this. You, my housekeeper, and that county order. But it is impossible for these people to leak out, and the only person who leaked it is the person who made the fake official seal. ”

After hearing this, Wang Lin nodded and said, "That's right." When the news leaked out, several other families would definitely go to the county magistrate to help with similar things after they found out. Judging from the fact that the notice has been stolen now, the prefectural order must not have been agreed. ”

"Well, what the eldest brother said is right" Wang Fu returned to his seat, and continued: "Since they know that the notice is fake, as long as it falls into their hands, the county order will have a handle in their hands, and it will be easy to find him to do things in the future." And so there was a sneak notice! It must be so! ”

"Well, it makes sense. But I always felt that it was not that simple. Is it possible that they revealed the news to the Lin family after they found out? ”

Wang Lin himself didn't know how he suddenly had such an idea, maybe it was his intuition.

Over the years, he has had an intuition component in many important decisions when making decisions, and it is often right to follow that intuition, which has to be said that some people's abilities are innate.

"Even if the Lin family knows, they should thank us, right? Now the backbone of the Lin family is still locked up in the bandits' den in Qinglong Mountain, and the others are not necessarily so smart that they will think that I have something to do with Lin Wei's kidnapping and send someone to steal the notice and threaten us. Wang Fu said confidently.

Wang Lin nodded approvingly, "Hmm." Also. In this way, it must be people from several other big families in the county. By the way, what you said about the threat just now made me think that they might use that notice to threaten our Wang family, so as to suppress us. ”

Hearing this, Wang Fu said with a shocked face: "The possibility is very high, our Wang family has been suppressing them all these years, and that forged notice is indeed a good weapon against us." ”

"So some of them are going to fight back, well! We'll take advantage of this and clean them up as well. However, the situation of the Lin family has to wait for the news of Qinglong Mountain.

Okay, let's discuss here first, and tomorrow when the people of our family get together, we will discuss it well, and it's time to clean up those families. When Wang Lin said this, his eyes were full of Jiang's fierce fierce light, like a vicious tiger in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, Lin Qing stole a notice, but stirred up this originally peaceful county seat.

Liekou, the wind is coming!

What kind of surprise will Wang Lin's "divine inference" bring to Lin Feng, the initiator of the "theft of the notice"!
