Chapter 4: The Destruction of the City

Rejuvenation Hall backyard meeting hall.

The hall is very quaint, five zhang wide and about 20 zhang deep, a large black long table occupies most of the space in the hall, and nearly 100 high-backed chairs are neatly placed next to the long table. The ebony ceiling, the terrazzo blue brick floor, and the walls on both sides hang more than 200 portraits, which are the portraits of the masters of the Huichun Hall, that is, the heads of the Hua family. The yellowed portraits make the hall look more and more simple and solemn, and there is a suffocating pressure that permeates the hall.

On the wall in the middle of the hall is a huge ink painting of 'Wei Ji Collecting Herbs'. The painting shows a skinny Taoist, picking up a 'Sanyang Fruit' with three flowers and three fruits on his face with a smile on his face. Weiji Daoren, this is the ancestor recognized by all doctors and pharmacists in the world, and it is said that he is a god who can fly to the sky and the earth, pick up the stars and the moon, but the legend is just a legend, and no one knows whether there is really that kind of boundless power god in the world. But Wei Ji passed down a piece of medicine, which everyone recognized.

It was the first time that Lin Xiao had been allowed to enter the conference hall, and he sat down very obediently at the position closest to the hall door of the long table.

All the deacons and doctors of the Rejuvenation Hall gathered here to discuss how to deal with the trouble caused by Lin Yao.

Lin Shan sat upright under the picture of Weiji collecting medicine, a trace of green light loomed in his eyes, and everyone who was swept by his gaze trembled and hurriedly lowered his head. Even Hua Wuniang, who was the most arrogant and domineering, and several deacons and elders of the Hua family, all lost their arrogance today, and they didn't dare to look at Lin Shan one by one.

For the first time in their lives, these Hua family members felt a kind of majesty that was indistinguishable from Lin Shan's mentor, that is, the previous head of the Huichun Hall and the previous head of the Hua family.

Of course, there are also people who are not convinced by Lin Shan's sudden majesty. Several deacons of the Hua family in the Mesozoic Era glared at Lin Shan angrily, with a look of how I will not give you face, what kind of posture can you put me. In their opinion, Lin Shan, this outsider who 'stolen' the throne of power in the Rejuvenation Hall because the previous generation of the head of the family was dying, had nothing to fear.

Lin Yao, whose face was like ashes, sat next to Lin Xiao. His body was trembling violently, and Lin Xiao could even hear the sound of his teeth colliding.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but glance at Lin Yao with pity. Mixed with that group of fox friends and dog friends, it was only a matter of time before something happened. It's just that I didn't expect that when something happened, it would be such a big thing that people were ashamed to talk about.

Perhaps it was Lin Xiao's compassionate gaze that stimulated Lin Yao, and Lin Yao suddenly howled hysterically: "You pity me, you pity me, you wild bastard, what qualifications do you have to pity me?"

Lin Yao exploded, suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed Lin Xiao's neck, and pinched it tightly. Lin Xiao had no experience in working with people, and he was coldly grabbed by Lin Yao, and he couldn't breathe, and he almost fainted. He even forgot that he had a martial arts cultivation that was a hundred times stronger than Lin Yao, but like a child on the street, he instinctively tore Lin Yao's face with his hands. The two of them became entangled and fell out of their chairs together, rolling on the ground like two mad puppies.

Lin Yao is five or six years older than Lin Xiao, and he is also a lot older, but he has already been hollowed out by wine, where does he have any strength? On the contrary, Lin Xiao works in the Rejuvenation Hall every day, his physique is extremely good, and he has practiced a breath of true qi since he was a child, but his strength is much greater than Lin Yao. The two tore on the ground for a while, and Lin Xiao successfully pulled Lin Yao's hand off his neck, turned over and rode on Lin Yao's body, raised his fist and waited to smash it.

Lin Yao's face was scratched with several deep blood marks, and he looked as embarrassed as he was with his bloody face. Seeing Lin Xiao raise his fist, he couldn't help but feel weak for a while, and shouted anxiously: "You dare to hit me! You dare to hit me? Mother~~~ This wild seed wants to kill the child!"

Hua Wuniang, who had already stood up to watch Lin Yao and Lin Xiao fight, scolded angrily, her body fluttered into the air, and she stepped over a distance of more than ten zhang in one step, and pushed Lin Xiao's back heart with a seemingly understated palm.

Lin Xiao only felt a gust of evil wind hit his heart, and there was a strong wind 'whirring' sound in his ears. Lin Xiao was shocked, instinctively puffed up the true qi of his whole body, and slapped out the backhand move 'Picking Chrysanthemum East Fence', and his palm gently hit a ring behind him, protecting the vital point of his heart.

With a crisp sound, Hua Wuniang stood up steadily, and grabbed Lin Yao, whose face was covered with blood, from the ground with one hand. Lin Xiao was so embarrassed that he was beaten to the ground and turned over more than 20 times, and hit his head on the door frame of the conference hall before stopping. His right arm had been hit by a palm that had injured the joint on his shoulder, where could he still move?

The evergreen recipe itself has the effect of healing and protecting life, and Lin Xiao, who was paralyzed, leaned on the door frame obliquely, mobilizing a breath of true qi to continuously impact the swollen and congested shoulders. He was ruthless, regardless of the mobilization of his true qi and forcibly rushed through the meridians that were closed by the shock, and only a soft sound on his shoulder was faintly heard, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, slowly raised his arm and waved it gently.

In his bones, Lin Xiao was unwilling to bow to Huawu Niang and her son!

Like an injured little wolf, Lin Xiao glared at Hua Wuniang viciously.

Hua Wuniang was seen by Lin Xiao's gaze, and her whole body was chilled. A killing intent suddenly appeared in her heart: "What a little evil animal, he should really be killed with medicine." Don't worry, the old lady will slowly adjust you, and she will not let you get better. Hua Wuniang suddenly hated herself, in the past ten years, she was just trying to abuse Lin Xiao in terms of living conditions, but ignoring the problem of cutting grass and eradicating the roots, which was simply an intolerable mistake.

Glaring at Lin Xiao with the same viciousness, Hua Wuniang sneered: "What a ruthless little cub, he can tear his eldest brother like this." ”

Quietly turning Lin Yao's body to the high-level members of the Rejuvenation Hall who were sitting on both sides of the long table, the elders and deacons of the Hua family immediately accused Lin Xiao of being so ruthless at such a young age. There was even a deacon of the Mesozoic Hua family who swore solemnly: "This child will be a thief in the future! Look at his fierce spirit, if he does not become a big bandit leader in the future, I will eat his own head!" He proudly supported his hair bun with his hand, and deliberately let everyone present notice that a flower made of tiny rubies was inserted in his bun.

Lin Shan looked at these elders and deacons of the Hua family coldly, and couldn't help but lament in his heart: "Teacher, what you said is extremely true. The Hua family has been so rotten that it can't be saved. The teacher is gracious, and the apprentice can only do his best. As long as the gangsters survive these two years, when they are done with this retreat, they will no longer be afraid of anything. ”

"If you want to invigorate the Hua family, how difficult is this matter?" Lin Shan laughed bitterly, his fingers flicked the table lightly, and said coldly: "Enough, what happened to me, but I don't need to say it." ”

Everyone in the Hua family closed their mouths, and the doctors, pharmacists and others in the Rejuvenation Hall nodded yes one after another. There was even a grumpy Mr. Zhu Tie who stood up and said loudly: "Owner, it is clear that the eldest young master made the first move and attacked the throat of Young Master Xiao. ”

Hua Wuniang glared at Mr. Zhu Tie fiercely, and suddenly sneered: "Young Master Xiao, is there something wrong?

Seeing that Mr. Zhu Tie was about to sneer at him, Mr. Wei suddenly coughed, and said lightly: "Okay, the two young masters are fighting, the children are not sensible, what are we adults involved in? This time, let's sum up first, how should the Zhang family deal with it." It's impossible to fool the past with an apology. However, do you want to hand over the eldest young master to appease the anger of the Zhang family~~~"

"Bold!" Hua Wuniang slapped her palm on the long table, only to hear a muffled sound of 'boom', the long table with a width of three zhang and a length of fifteen zhang was flat on the ground, but all the table legs were slapped into the terrazzo bricks by her palm. Hua Wuniang shouted: "Who dares to hand over Yao'er! Don't blame me Hua Wuniang for being unkind!"

"Bold!" Lin Shan also snorted lightly and coldly: "Wu Niang, the family rules say that those who dare to roar in the council hall should be guilty!"

Hua Wu Niang's face suddenly turned pale, and her complexion was even several times whiter than the thick layer of white powder on her face. She was terrified and threw a distressed look at the elders and deacons of the Hua family for help, and there was no lack of threat in her eyes: If something happens to the old lady, you will not end well.

An elder of the Hua family coughed lightly, glanced at Hua Wu Niang, and slowly spoke: "Hall Master, Wu Niang is just unintentional. Put aside some small things for the time being, and talk about big things, and talk about big things. ”

Lin Shan smiled gloomily and said lightly: "Big deal?"

He stepped on the long table on the ground, and as soon as he lifted his foot, he actually sucked the long table up again with a breath of true air. He pushed the table forward half a foot, avoiding the square holes in the ground, and suddenly the table stood firmly on the ground again.

Moving the chair he was sitting on half a foot forward, Lin Shan glanced at the elders and deacons of the Hua family, and said indifferently: "Mr. Wei will tell you about the power of the Zhang family." ”

Mr. Wei trembled with two mouse whiskers, stood up slowly, and saluted the elders and deacons of the Hua family, especially Hua Wuniang and Lin Yao, before pulling out a dirty, oily folding fan from behind the collar and shaking it away very chicly. The folding fan fanned, and Mr. Wei said with a smile: "This is the news I just received." Returning to the Zhang family in Yingcheng, their old lady, that is, the father of the current head of the Zhang family, was the head of the largest waterway cottage 'Sansan Lianwu' within a radius of thousands of miles from the 'Raptor River' in southern Xinjiang of the Great Yuan Dynasty. ”

The faces of the elders and deacons of the Hua family have all changed, and even Hua Wuniang, who has always been arrogant, has become extremely ugly.

Especially Lin Yao, Lin Yao, who still had a drop of blood on the tip of his nose, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and he wailed: "Isn't it? Isn't it? Mother~~~ Daddy!"

Mr. Wei pursed his lips and smiled, shook the folding fan again, and said softly: "Now Zhang Jiaming has two thousand generals on his face, which is a little old foundation left after the Sansan Lianwu was wiped out by the Dayuan National Sailor thirty years ago, and his strength is extremely strong. After all, the Zhang family is used to being bandits, and after thirty years, the bandits' hearts have not died, and the private soldiers they have in various manors are about 4,000. ”

Four thousand private troops, which are in the northwestern counties, have the qualifications to attack the city.

Exhaling softly, Mr. Wei's mouse whiskers trembled again, and he sighed a little helplessly: "Of course, you don't have to worry about this. No matter how strong his Zhang family is, does he really dare to bring a private army to attack Guihua City?"

The expressions of everyone in the meeting hall were all relaxed, yes, didn't the Zhang family really dare to raise troops?

Shaking his head, Lin Shan shouted coldly, "Mr. Wei, go on." ”

Mr. Wei nodded, and his face instantly became gloomy: "What I'm worried about is the group of bandits and thieves who followed the old lady of the Zhang family to retreat from the southern waterways of the Great Yuan Kingdom thirty years ago. The prestige of Sansan Lianwu back then, hum, was that even the ships of the Great Yuan Dynasty that transported silver dared to rob it. There are about 150 bandits in this group of bandits who are qualified to be on the black list of the martial arts spectrum, and they are all masters who kill people without blinking. ”

Lin Yao, who was sitting on the ground and howling, was so frightened that his urine squirted out, and he screamed, "They don't want to make such a big deal for a woman, right?"

Mr. Wei sighed, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Mrs. Zhang has nearly a hundred grandchildren, granddaughters, but there is only such one." Pingli is cared for as his own eyeballs. If it weren't for the purpose of marrying the Wang family to improve the fame and prestige of his Zhang family, and also to pull a powerful ally to help each other in the troubled times, would you be willing to send his granddaughter over in such a hurry?"

Lin Shan said lightly: "Mrs. Zhang's idea is actually right. The marriage between the Zhang family and the Wang family has only benefits, and there is no harm at all. It's just that I didn't expect Miss Zhang's life to be thin and encounter your evil obstacles. ”

Without waiting for Hua Wuniang to speak, Lin Shan continued: "There are two ways now, one is to keep Lin Yao's surname, then the foundation of my Rejuvenation Hall will be ~~~"

Mr. Wei pretended not to know and asked, "Then, the owner, what about another way?"

Lin Shan narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Discuss with the old master of Wang, tie up this dry beast, and send it to Mrs. Zhang Weng, then I will have no worries about returning to the Spring Hall!"

Mr. Wei smiled and pretended to be surprised and asked, "Then, will the old master Wang agree?"

Lin Shan said indifferently: "Why didn't the old master of the Wang family agree? He also has a lot of sons. Losing a second king, and then marrying one of his daughters to the Wang family as a daughter-in-law, this matter is also mixed up. After that, the Zhang family is still the best ally of his Wang family, and you will be reluctant to give up a son's surname as the head of the Wang family?"

"You~~~Lin Shan~~~ are you willing to give up your son's surname?" Hua Wuniang screamed, she jumped on the spot and roared: "You just want Yao'er to die!"

"If he doesn't do this kind of thing, who can let him die?" Lin Shan squinted his eyes at Hua Wuniang and sneered: "I can't help it." If Yao'er doesn't hand it over, and the Zhang family insists on taking revenge on my Rejuvenation Hall, which one is more important, Rejuvenation Hall or Yao'er?"

Which is more important, the foundation of the Rejuvenation Hall or Lin Yao's surname?

Everyone looked at Hua Wu Niang.

Hua Wuniang stood stunned for a long time, and suddenly hugged Lin Yao. She cried loudly: "I don't care, I don't care, Rejuvenation Hall and Yao'er, I can't bear either one! Woo, Yao'er is Rejuvenation Hall, and Rejuvenation Hall is Yao'er's." No one is allowed to touch a single hair of him! No one should try to touch my idea of the Rejuvenation Hall!"

Lin Yao cried bitterly and hugged Hua Wuniang's thigh, and cried loudly: "Mother~~~ You must save the child~~~ The child doesn't want to die~~~"

Hua Wuniang hugged Lin Yao's body and patted him on the shoulder hard, howling loudly: "Don't worry, Yao'er, my mother won't let you be wronged!"

Suddenly, Hua Wuniang stood up violently, she wiped the white powder and tears from her face vigorously, and looked at Lin Shan viciously.

Lin Shan looked at Hua Wuniang and asked coldly, "What are you going to do?" Can you protect him for a while, can you protect him for a lifetime?"

"How do you know that I can't protect Yao'er for the rest of my life?" Hua Wu Niang looked at Lin Shan with a strange smile, she twisted her waist, and laughed proudly: "Don't think that there are some things that only you, the hall master of the Rejuvenation Hall, know!

Lin Shan's face twitched, he stood up suddenly, and said angrily, "What do you know?

Hua Wu Niang took a long breath and said viciously: "Give me the key, I'm going to open the secret vault!"

"Bold! presumptuous!you!" Lin Shan's face suddenly became purple and swollen, and the green tendons jumped out of his forehead, and he slapped his palm heavily on the long table, and in the sound of the wind, a very faint green flame covered the long table, and the long table that had been used in the Rejuvenation Hall for nearly a thousand years turned into a piece of flying ash and scattered in the blink of an eye.

A palm came out, and the hall was shocked.

Large pieces of sweat oozed from the foreheads of the elders and deacons of the Hua family, continued to drip down their cheeks, and gathered into crystal droplets on their chins, slowly dripping. They looked at Lin Shan in horror, they didn't expect that this outsider, the contemporary head of the Hua family, who was almost upside down, would have such incredible magical skills.

There are countless secret skills in the world, but the flames can be struck out with bare hands, and the flames can instantly burn the 'steel wood' special product of the 'Far North Hengshan', which is three points stronger than fine iron, into flying ashes, which is completely beyond the power of martial arts. Perhaps, only the three-flavor true fire cultivated by the legendary gods who can fly to the heavens and the earth can have such divine power, right?

"Three flavors are really hot!" was not the only one who thought of this question, and several of the main post gentlemen groaned the word almost at the same time.

Lin Shan's body seemed to have become extremely tall at this moment, and he seemed to fill the entire hall alone. His momentum shocked everyone in the hall, and no one dared to speak.

Lin stood at the door in a daze, looking at Lin Shan, who suddenly seemed to have changed a person, and couldn't help but wonder: Is this still his father who is gentle, kind and kind, and doesn't dare to say a word to Hua Wuniang? Is this still the father who only cries secretly at night after the inexplicable illness of his most beloved woman?

A phantom flashed in front of him, and Lin Xiao seemed to see Lin Shan who was holding his mother's ashes and kneeling in the corner of the backyard of the Hua family's mansion on the night of his mother's death.

He is so powerful, why has he always been so indulgent to Hua Wu Niang?

If Lin Shan was willing, over the years, the Rejuvenation Hall had long been his own world, so why did he keep these elders and deacons of the Hua family, who were as stupid as pigs and had no ability?

Lin Xiao's heart was full of doubts, and he looked at Lin Shan very puzzled. In terms of the power of Lin Shan's palm, Lin Shan can completely become the world's top martial arts master and accept the admiration of everyone in the world, not just a sitting doctor with the title of divine doctor.

The atmosphere in the hall was stagnant like an iron curtain, Lin Shan gasped heavily, and after a long time, he slowly reined in the huge aura he released.

For a while, Lin Shan became the clear, thin, amiable, indisputable, almost cowardly little old man again.

However, the eyes of others looking at him were completely different.

Lin Shan looked at Hua Wu Niang a little weakly, and his voice suddenly became extremely hoarse, and he asked in a low voice, "Wu Niang, what else do you know?"

Hua Wuniang smiled coldly and said gloomily: "Before Daddy died, there was a period of babbling nonsense, but I heard it all. ”

"What did the teacher say?" Lin Shan looked at Hua Wuniang very kindly.

"What my father said, I listened to it as a myth at the time. Hua Wuniang looked at the little black ash on the ground, and said with a strange smile: "I didn't expect it, it turned out to be true." Hmph, since these things are true, why can't the old lady protect Yao'er for the rest of her life?"

"Hehe, hehe, hehe!" Lin Shan suddenly hugged his stomach and laughed, while laughing, he pointed at Hua Wuniang and said angrily: "Do you think that Yao'er will be taken by them if she looks like this now?"

Hua Wuniang was speechless for a while, and after a long time, she screamed: "Whether they like it or not, give me the key to the secret vault!"

"What are you going to do?" Lin Shan said angrily, "What are you going to do?"

Hua Wuniang said coldly: "There is an elixir in the secret vault, and naturally there is also poison, what do you think I am going to do?"

Lin Shan's face changed miserably, and he said angrily: "You are crazy!"

Hua Wu Niang smiled strangely: "For the sake of Yao'er, what if I go crazy?" Lin Shan, do you give me the key?"

Lin Shan's face changed, and his right hand instinctively shrank into his sleeve.

Hua Wuniang sneered: "What did Daddy say to you before he died? Do you dare to disobey me now? Are you worthy of Daddy who treats you as a parent?"

Lin Shan was silent, the elders and deacons of the Hua family were silent, and all the people in the council hall were silent.

Hua Wuniang's face gradually floated a smile of victory. There were nearly 100 people in the hall, and only Lin Shan and she knew how terrifying the power of some things in the secret vault was. With those things, are you still afraid of a mere Zhang family?

She slowly stretched out her hand towards Lin Shan and sneered: "The key, give it to me!"

Lin Shanchang took a breath, and he looked at Hua Wuniang with his teeth clenched, his body trembling slightly.

Hua Wuniang chuckled and said: "Don't forget Daddy's words before he died! Don't forget how Daddy actually died! With Daddy's cultivation, if it weren't for the fact that it was not for saving you from going mad, Daddy would have lived for at least fifty years! Everything you say today is given to you by Daddy!"

Lin Shan opened his mouth, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.

Suddenly, there were several scorching thunders from the sky, and the thunder was so loud that the rolling thunder came, shaking the tiles in the council hall 'clang'.

'Bang Bang', the roof of the council hall was suddenly swept away by a gust of wind, and the earth suddenly shook a few times.

In the distance, there was a buzzing human voice.

Not long after, several Rejuvenation Hall nursing masters stumbled over, and shouted loudly from afar: "Boss, madam, run away! The city is broken! The city is broken! The black knife bandits have entered!"

The people in the hall were all dumbfounded, how much effort did it take, why did the city break?

Lin Shan's face suddenly turned as white as paper. He glanced at Lin Xiao sharply, suddenly flashed to Lin Xiao's side, grabbed him with one hand, turned around and ran towards the back door of the meeting hall.

Hua Wuniang screamed: "Lin Shan, what are you doing?"

Lin Shan didn't seem to hear Hua Wuniang's voice, so he grabbed Lin Xiao and ran out.
