It is said to be a backyard, but it is actually a clearing behind Tingtao Villa close to the cliff, which is quite far away, and there is a hut in the dense bamboo forest.

Ye Feng had been observing Lin Shoucheng, who was leading the way in front.

Along the way, he has maintained the same speed, not slow, and even the frequency and length of each step have not changed at all, it seems that this is a person who attaches great importance to rules and details to the point of being a little old-fashioned.

Would such a person be a big abnormality for a woman, and often do things to bully the weak? If it wasn't for what he saw with his own eyes last night, Ye Feng wouldn't have believed it anyway.

After thinking about it, the group had already walked through the bamboo forest and came to the door of the hut. The hut is very simple, it looks a little old, it looks very old, but it is very clean, and in front of the door, a middle-aged man in a green shirt with three locks of long beard is looking down and sweeping the bamboo leaves scattered on the ground very intently.

Lin Shoucheng paused as he passed in front of him and saluted him. But he lowered his head and looked at it, still sweeping the floor intently, without raising his head, as if he had not seen the group of people who had arrived.

When he came to the door, Lin Shoucheng said: "My father is inside, please come in." With that, he pushed open the door and walked in.

The room is not big, and the furnishings are very simple, except for the table and chairs, there is a large bed placed against the wall inside, and an old man sits on the bed.

Ye Feng fixed his eyes and saw that this person was disheveled, his gray hair was scattered and draped, covering half of his face, and his thick beard had obviously not been taken care of for a long time, growing wantonly, and only a pair of cloudy eyes and a tall nose bridge were seen on his whole face, and the whole person was in a daze.

Seeing someone coming in, he raised his scattered eyes and glanced at everyone, and when he saw Lin Shoucheng, there was some reaction in his eyes, there were words in his mouth, hehe, his hands waved slightly, and a string of clanging gold and iron clashing sounds. On closer inspection, his hands were actually shackled and chained to the head of the bed.

Is this man a madman?

Lin Shoucheng lowered his head at this time and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, this is my father Lin Suifeng. ”

Everyone was taken aback, this crazy old man locked in the bed turned out to be Lin Suifeng, the world's number one swordsman who shook the rivers and lakes? What the hell is going on?

Lin Shoucheng was not surprised when he saw everyone's surprised expressions, and said with some sadness: "My father accidentally went crazy because of practice five years ago, suddenly went crazy, and killed his mother by mistake, and since then he has been locked in this hut and has never gone out for half a step. ”

Zhang Fatzi was stunned: "Why does no one know about the rivers and lakes in the past five years?"

Lin Shouchang sighed: "First, this matter is unfortunate for the family, and it is spread out for fear of damaging my father's reputation, and secondly, my father's name is all over the rivers and lakes, and naturally there are many enemies. ”

Only then did everyone understand what Lin Shoucheng said just now above the main hall, and also understood why the old servant Lin Zhong would call Lin Shoucheng to become the owner of the village, it turned out that Lin Shoucheng had been in charge of Tingtao Villa for the past five years.

Ye Feng frowned: "The invited swordsman came to Tingtao Villa and couldn't see the old owner, wouldn't this matter be a goof?"

Lin Shoucheng said: "I told them that my father was in retreat, and I would learn from them, and then give them a few well-known sword books that had been lost, and they were all happy, so they didn't doubt him." ”

Everyone sighed, they couldn't imagine that the number one swordsman in the world would end up like this. Tang Yu asked: "The old owner has been like this for five years, have you ever found a famous doctor to diagnose and treat him?"

Lin Shoucheng said: "Because we were afraid of leaking the news, we didn't invite famous doctors from all over the world to come, but we also secretly invited familiar doctors to come and see, and they all said that they accidentally injured their brains while practicing, and they have used a lot of famous drugs in the past five years, but they have always been so demented." ”

Ye Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "It just so happens that I have made an appointment with Cheng Sansi, the current divine doctor, to meet here, and I think it may be possible to ask him to come to see the old farmer." ”

When Lin Shoucheng heard this, he said with an unexpectedly expressionless face: "Of course it's the best, but I'm afraid that even a miracle doctor will not have a good solution for the solid disease in the past five years." ”

Ye Feng didn't say anything more, and glanced at Tang Yu, secretly wondering in his heart, why did this Lin Shoucheng seem to be not enthusiastic about treating his father's madness?

Xie Zhenliang on the side didn't speak for a long time, and then suddenly asked, "Since you have covered up this matter for five years, why are you making it public to us now?"

Lin Shoucheng smiled bitterly: "You are here to investigate the murder on behalf of the government, no matter how powerful Tingtao Villa is, you will not dare to go against the imperial court, not to mention that this matter is related to the guests invited by my Villa, for the sake of the innocence of the villa, you can only work together." ”

Xie Zhen nodded brightly, seemed to be very satisfied with this reason, and did not say anything more.

At this time, everyone stayed in the house for a while, and the stupid Lin Suifeng saw that Lin Shoucheng was only talking to everyone all the time, and gradually became a little irritable, staring at Lin Shoucheng with his eyes, and muttering: "Son, son, son......" His hands waved more and more, making the chain louder.

Lin Shoucheng sighed and said to everyone: "My father has also seen it, in order to avoid stimulating his condition, let's go to the main hall to talk." ”

Everyone nodded yes, and the group walked out of the hut.

When he walked past the middle-aged man in green shirt who was sweeping the floor, Lin Shoucheng gave another salute, but he still didn't raise his head and concentrated on sweeping the floor, as if he didn't know that someone was passing by. Lin Shoucheng seemed to be used to his reaction, so he didn't speak, turned around and walked out with everyone.

Until they walked out of the bamboo forest, everyone could still vaguely hear the shouts of the forest in the hut and the crisp sound of gold and iron clash of iron chains.
