Chapter 4: The Heart of the Strong
After the patriarch Lin Zhenlong heard Lin Tao's words, his brows suddenly furrowed, but he did not reprimand him for anything at the junior Lin Tao, but looked at Lin Tao's father, Lin Zhenshan, the great elder of Lin Jiabao.
Lin Zhou is the son of the patriarch Lin Zhenlong, and Lin Tao is the son of the great elder Lin Zhenshan, as the patriarch, how can Lin Zhenlong tolerate the clansmen humiliating his son in front of outsiders? But if Lin Zhenlong directly reprimands Lin Tao at such a time, he will fall into the handle of bullying the small, so the great elder Lin Zhenshan needs to know the current affairs and prevent his son Lin Tao from continuing to speak.
The problem is that after Lin Zhenshan was forced to look at Lin Zhenlong, he closed his eyes slightly and pretended not to hear anything.
Seven days later, Lin Jiabao will hold the annual ancestor worship day and the day of the new generation of juniors, and the presbytery will also determine the successor of the head of the family on that day. Under normal circumstances, the candidate to succeed the head of the family must be the one with the highest, the best, and the most potential among the juniors, and in Lin Zhenshan's opinion, among the new generation of the clan, there is no one more suitable than his son Lin Tao.
However, Lin Zhenshan deeply suspected that Lin Zhenlong would use his power for personal gain, colluded with other members of the Council of Elders, and forcibly made his own waste son Lin Zhou the successor head of the family.
There is also the matter of Lin Tao proposing to the second miss of the Su family, originally Lin Tao had already mentioned it to Lin Zhenshan, but it was Lin Zhenshan who temporarily suppressed the matter and asked him to concentrate on cultivation and wait until after the martial arts competition. As a result, he didn't expect that this matter was intervened by Lin Zhenlong and Lin Zhou, causing Lin Tao to complain about him several times.
Coupled with some disputes between him and Lin Zhenlong over the division of family property interests, Lin Zhenshan has always held back the nameless fire in Lin Zhenlong's belly, and naturally he didn't want to give Lin Zhenlong face at this time.
However, in the matter of the election of the successor head of the family, Lin Zhenshan is his own villain. Lin Zhenlong's calf protection is true, and he spent a lot of money to promote the marriage of Lin Zhou and Su Muqin, just to want his son Lin Zhou to have a backer in the future. But Lin Zhenlong really didn't think about letting Lin Zhou, who had no martial arts cultivation, serve as the successor head of the family, and he didn't have that selfishness.
In Lin Zhenlong's mind, the successor head of the family must be the best junior, not only in terms of martial arts cultivation, but also in terms of moral character, and it must be discussed and decided with the elders of the family at the elders' meeting.
"This is Lin Jiabao's meeting hall! Young Master Ben is qualified to sit here, what's the matter? Lin Tao, you waste can only stand! If Young Master Ben stands up, then you waste can only kneel!" After Lin Zhou heard Lin Tao's words, he was not angry at all, but provoked Lin Tao with an extremely arrogant expression.
When Lin Tao taunted him just now, his experience bar actually rose by 6 percentage points all of a sudden, reaching 46 percent! Why did Lin Tao increase by 6 percentage points in a single sentence? Could it be because he publicly mocked him in front of everyone? Or was this Lin Tao's level higher than Lin Shi's, reaching 93 percent of the fifth order, so the experience value of the taunt increased a little more?
Lin Zhou already has some vague memories in his memory, although he still doesn't remember it very clearly, but he knows that Lin Tao has humiliated Lin Zhou before, including Lin Zhou's mental disorder later, he really became a waste and has been ridiculed by everyone, all thanks to this Lin Tao!
It's no wonder that as soon as he Lin Zhou sat in the conference hall, Lin Tao targeted him.
"I'm a waste? It's funny! I'm a cultivator at the peak of the fifth order of Xuan Qi, and you dare to say that I'm a waste who hasn't even reached the first order of Xuan Qi! You said that you stand and I kneel? Lin Zhou, I want to ask you, last time in the back mountain, who knelt on the ground and begged each other for mercy? Also, you won't forget what it's like to be chained and drilled into a dog cage so quickly, right?" Lin Tao showed an extremely exaggerated expression on his face, and deliberately said loudly to Lin Zhou, obviously wanting everyone else in the council hall to hear.
Some of the children of the Lin family who stayed in the council hall couldn't help but laugh together when they heard Lin Tao say this.
Hearing Lin Tao say this, Lin Zhou's mind frantically flooded with a large number of memories......
About a month and a half ago, the previous Lin Zhou was tricked by Lin Tao and his gang into going to the back mountain and beaten violently. But that Lin Zhou was still very backbone, and he didn't kneel down to beg them for mercy, he was kicked by them in the back leg and forced to kneel on the ground, and was forced to kowtow to each of them, and then they even tied a dog chain around his neck and forcibly pulled him all over the mountain, and locked him in an iron cage containing dogs for a whole day!
In addition, some memories from a long time ago also surfaced in Lin Zhou's mind...... He was forced to be held in the stream for ten minutes, put him in a sack and hung upside down in a pigsty, and they put lice and bugs in his hair...... All kinds of humiliation and torture methods are used to the extreme.
These sudden massive memories caught Lin Zhou off guard, feeling extremely humiliated and angry, and his body couldn't help but tremble because of this. Lin Tao: Are these people still human? How can they bear to treat a clansman brother who is unable to practice martial arts and is mentally disabled? It is simply frenzied and outrageous!
After feeling these memories, Lin Zhou could no longer use the calm mood he had before to keep himself out of all this.
Since he has crossed over to this world, he is the forest boat in this world. No matter how strange and wasteful Lin Zhou was before, he had to accept and inherit everything from him unconditionally.
Including all the humiliations he has ever endured.
There is also the pain, struggle, and stubbornness behind these humiliations.
That Lin Zhou, although he is a waste and mentally disabled, he still has an unyielding heart. Even though he was humiliated and tortured by these people in every way, he never shed a single tear, and he never mentioned half a word about these things in front of his loving father and grandfather!
He has been silently enduring and enduring it, and he has been struggling to find other ways to cultivate his Xuan Qi and become strong.
He hopes that one day, he can use his own hands to get justice for himself!
The original owner of this body is not a waste, he has an indomitable soul and the belief to be strong. His so-called crazy words are only because he firmly believes that he will become strong one day in the future.
The origin of this ridicule system seems to be related to a certain obsession of the predecessor Lin Zhou, but there seems to be a big lack of memory in this regard, which makes Lin Zhou unable to explore it for the time being.
The two souls of the previous life and this life finally began to merge for the first time at this moment, and when Lin Zhou raised his head to look at Lin Tao again, his eyes already had more self-esteem and persistence that the previous teenager had.
In addition, there is a real strong heart!
Forbearance in the past does not mean cowardice, from today onwards, in this world, I will kill those who insult me!
The contradiction between him and Lin Tao is not at all a simple struggle between teenagers who are angry and ruthless, but a life-and-death power struggle! If this Lin Tao is allowed to get the position of successor to the head of the family after seven days, Lin Zhou will be more humiliated by them in the future, and sooner or later he will be expelled from Lin Jiabao by Lin Tao and his gang, and then be driven out of the castle.
That result was absolutely unacceptable to Lin Zhou, so he had to improve his cultivation as soon as possible in these seven days, and he had to rise to the sixth rank or above or even higher to ensure that he won the first place in the martial arts competition, and was successfully selected by the Council of Elders as the successor head of Lin Jiabao. Only in this way will he not have the heart of a strong man like the previous Lin Zhou, but he can only be at the mercy of others and humiliated.
This is a world where martial arts are respected, and the strength of force almost determines everything. Dignity must be based on a strong fist, otherwise it can only become the laughing stock of others. The candidate to succeed the head of the family will be announced in seven days, leaving not much time for Lin Zhou to improve his strength, he must hurry.
