Chapter 15: Behind the Scenes

So Lin Fengjin is now a little curious about what is stored in the "C" counter. He was now at least certain that there was a high probability that the contents would be more precious than a hundred thousand taels of silver. And it just so happened that Lin Fengjin also had the intention of going to Xiangfan, so he could naturally rush over by the way.

The hull of the ship shook slightly, and then a series of voices questioning and drinking orders were apparently intercepted. Lin Feng hurriedly put the strip of cloth with the password on top of the candle, and watched it slowly turn yellow, scorch, burn, and finally turn into black ashes. It didn't take long for a lot of people to gather outside, but despite the noise, no one could break in.

After a while, a guard from outside came in and reported:

"Young Master, Commander Li is outside, and at the same time, Feng Yuanwai of the Feng family, Chen Dabiao, and Fu Yidao are all outside asking to see you. ”

Lin Fengjin waved his hand, groaned for a while, and then said:

"Ask Commander Li to come in, and then say that I just accidentally fell into the water, and I need to freshen up and dress up before I come out to meet guests. ”

So when Feng Yuanwai, Chen Dabiao, Fu Yidao and others entered this small cabin, what they saw was Li Hu sitting at the top of the board, this middle-aged man nicknamed General Li really had a certain "general" bearing at this time, calm, dignified, not angry but mighty.

And Lin Fengjin was behind Li Hu's back, tightly wrapped in a fur fur, with two or three pots of charcoal fire next to him, his gray hair looked wet, his face was a little pale, and he looked like he might sneeze out at any time, of course, he was holding a bowl of hot ginger soup in his trembling hands. It's exactly the image of a frail teenager.

The first person to speak was the representative of the Feng family, Feng Dangdi, it is said that this man in his forties has successfully obtained a piece of paper with his open joints and the heads of hundreds of bandits, and has become a local thief catcher and thus has an official identity.

"Did that guy get caught?"

Li Hu said coldly:

"Nope. ”

The two words that Li Hu said so hard that everyone almost choked up, and Feng Dangdi raised his eyebrows and said angrily:

"Rubbish!"

"Looks like the place where that guy is hiding is provided by us shit. Lin Feng said in a scathing tone.

Then he didn't give the rest of the people a chance to speak, and then said: "Li Hu, I remember that the core of the trap beast is also priceless, in order to get the information about that guy's hiding place, we turned tens of thousands of taels of silver, you have to recover a little loss for me." ”

Li Hu immediately said:

"The subordinates are incompetent, although they think they are not inferior to others in killing, but they are really not good at snatching trophies. ”

Lin Fengjin's words immediately played a role in opposing the generals, and several people sitting on the chairs twisted their bodies a little unnaturally, and their faces became ugly.

Because Lin Feng estimated that the organ master would definitely arrange counter-devouring measures on the broken machine slaves, he strictly forbade Li Hu and them to get close to the battlefield, even if it was a harmless-looking wreckage.

So, in fact, they didn't get the benefits of the beast Li Hu, but, logically speaking, this is completely unreasonable, because they not only provided the other party's hiding place, but also participated in the front-line battle (witnessing that the guards they were hiding behind the most Lu were all poisoned by madness), but they didn't get anything after the most Lu! If this kind of thing is publicized, I am afraid that no one will dare to cooperate with these famous clans in the future.

Under this situation of Lin Feng's preemptive voice, the words that condemned him for "letting go" the organ master naturally seemed less reasonable. Unless it was a snake like the Feng family, he could scoop up the sack mixed with corpses and stones from the icy river water, and then place it in front of Lin Fengjin to directly refute his lies.

However, this kind of thing is still very difficult. But even so, Lin Fengjin could still ask the Feng family to prove one thing, that is, the corpse in the sack was part of the organ

Although this kind of nonsense behavior is very despicable, I have to admit that it is very effective, especially when Lin Fengjin is surrounded by dozens of fierce gods and evil spirits, plus well-trained men.

Therefore, the last thing is gone, and the rest of the people can only pinch their noses and admit the statement that the organ master escaped, and after Lin Fengjin got the compensation of 10,000 taels of silver, he no longer asked about the wreckage of the trap beast.

After being harassed by this organ division for a while, the caravan can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, if the previous harassment of the machine master Wan Qi was a small fight, then he broke into Wang Sanlang's house is a big move, and then the poisonous gas explosion of the machine spider in the Sihai Tower is even more generous, causing thirty or forty people to kill each other, and those who survive have become madmen.

If you count it successively, the ordinary people who were killed by mistake were twenty or thirty people, and the Feng family was also regarded as a local tyrant, and they extorted a thousand taels of silver from the caravan with a "compassionate place", but they all collected it by themselves, and the civilians who were "accidentally injured" actually lost a few pennies in their families.

A lonely widow went to the door of the Feng family to cry, the Feng family actually used a knife, and the women, children, old and young killed and injured seven or eight people, not to mention that Lin Fengjin couldn't look at it, even people like Wang Sanlang felt a little unbearable.

However, at this time, the caravan itself was in serious trouble, and there was no time to take care of the poor people. Because if you calculate carefully, even in the Four Seas Tower, there are more than a dozen guards who are members of the Feng family, and the casualties of the entire caravan are more than sixty!

For this era, even if the army has more than 30% casualties, it is in a situation of demoralization, let alone a rabble of improvised caravans?

Therefore, even if it was coercion and temptation, and the smashing of silver bullets, most of the guards in the caravan refused to go any further, and these old fritters knew one thing, that is, no matter how much money they had, they had to have their lives to spend it.

And even among the organizers of the caravan, the "relatives and friends" of the major families had to weigh the heavy setbacks to the family after these family children and slaves were exhausted here.

After all, although the five countries are in full force at this time, but the situation of the troubled times has not changed, in each country, bandits with the background of the secret support of the hostile country can be said to abound, for the merchants who pay attention to circulation, the importance of a safe trade route is definitely not inferior to the safety of the arteries flowing with blood, and half of the security of the trade road depends on the ability of the local government, and the other half is to build on their own protection strength.

Therefore, on the other hand, the only one who can make the summons move forward is the Lin family. You must know that this time the Lin family's guards suffered the least casualties, only three or five people, and the injured ones were all lightly injured.

On top of that, the bounty each guard received was almost equivalent to two or three years of savings on a weekday. So even if you omit their elite level after being trained by Li Hu, their morale is unprecedentedly high.

In fact, Lin Fengjin has been dealing with the variables of this period of time as if he were playing chess. Ever since he agreed to join this caravan, it was his first move, and the most exciting move in recent times was to use the core of the value of the trapped beast to lure a large number of guards to send them to death!

The direct consequence of this move was to shrink the strength of the entire caravan by nearly one-fifth.

The indirect consequence of this move is that Lin Fengjian's manpower ratio in the entire caravan that can fight now exceeds sixty percent. Just like the person with the most shares in a company often speaks the most usefully, and that is the chairman. The ups and downs of this kind of strength should also make Lin Fengjin's "right to speak" in the caravan increase suddenly.

In this case, Lin Fengjin had already calculated that if he wanted to continue to move forward, he should first buy Li Hu------- and then they would find out that this was a futile thing------ they would definitely come to find themselves and make a bid.

And this person should have some secrets in his hands, such as what the real purpose of the caravan was this time, the real opponents and dangers they were going to face, and the real purpose of the person who organized the caravan.

Although there is a saying that "if you know too much, you will be killed", but Lin Fengjin is even more reluctant to be used as cannon fodder for ignorance, and the only end of this kind of thing is to be sacrificed in vain. And Lin Fengjin currently feels that what he lacks most is intelligence, if he has relevant information, then he should have the ability to find a way out of it, or even take a chestnut from the fire!

At this time, the night was already a little deep, Lin Fengjin was about to go to bed, and there were three sudden rings on the window lattice outside the door, one long and two short, which was a code signal indicating that someone was visiting.

At this time, the guards around Lin Fengjin were all the so-called domestic slaves, and the whole family had to rely on the Lin family to survive. Lin Fengjin put down the article he was reading, nodded, stood up and stretched his waist by the way, ready to greet the expected guest.

The person who came did not surprise Lin Fengjin's judgment, that is, Fu Yidao, who had always been isolated from everyone. He still looks like everyone owes him money, his freshly scraped green and miserable scalp is still slightly shining under the candlelight, his towering cheekbones, and his sharp eyes seem to be about to knock out all the bones of people!

Lin Fengjin deliberately yawned: lazily impatiently said:

"What are you looking for from me?"

Fu Yidao was silent for a while and said:

"What I am about to say to you must not be heard by the rest. ”

"It's a nuisance. Lin Fengjin muttered for a while, and said impatiently with a mixture of arrogance and the slick attitude of a gentleman: "Hey, go farther away from the outside and go outside the courtyard." ”
