Regarding these villains, Lin Yan did not kill them all, but just knocked them over.
After all, his main purpose was to save people, not kill people. Since the Liu sisters were fine, he just had to teach them a lesson.
And when he first arrived here, it was really not appropriate to form a deadly feud with the local forces. Although Lin Yan was not afraid, there was no need to cause so many troubles in vain.
Like the kind of people who go on a killing spree at the slightest disagreement, Lin Yan felt that they must have something wrong with their brains, or else they were murderous maniacs.
Obviously there was room for change at the beginning, but he insisted on being so vicious that he would continue to cause trouble to the point of death. I don't know what the reason was?
Seeing that the tall man was still unconscious, Lin Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him, walked up to Liu Ying and said:
"Sister Liu Ying, the matter is settled, let's go!" At this time, Liu Ying had not yet reacted to the electric and flint-like battle just now. Perhaps this could no longer be called a battle, but a crushing one. It was Lin Yan's response to Gao Da and others unilaterally crushed him!
Liu Ying composed herself, looked at Lin Yan and said:
"Xiao Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are so powerful now? It really surprises my sister!" Liu Ying could tell that Lin Yan was extraordinary from the first time they met.
But the young man back then was only in the body-forging realm, and now, even Gao Da, who was in the early stage of the pulse realm, was no longer his opponent!
Lin Yan smiled and didn't explain much. At this moment, the sound of a carriage sounded. The guards on Liu Ying's side clenched their weapons and looked nervously towards the direction of the sound.
"Frightened bird"! Finally, the carriage showed its true appearance, and the driver was an old man with missing teeth.
"Uncle Mao", it turns out it's Mingya and the others who have arrived! As soon as the carriage stopped, a figure emerged from the carriage, heading straight towards Liu Ying, and then threw herself into her arms.
"Sister!" This figure was Liu Yan who came with her. Along the way, she had already imagined the worst case scenario, that her sister might be kidnapped by the Gao family.
Now seeing Liu Ying standing here well, she suddenly felt extremely happy. After a while, Liu Ying touched her head lovingly and said softly:
"Okay Yan'er, you're a big girl and you still cry so much." Liu Yan raised her head, stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, and said with a flat mouth:
"Sister, just be okay." Then, he turned to look at Lin Yan and said:
"Lin Yan, thank you!" Lin Yan smiled and shook his head. When an old acquaintance encountered this situation, he would naturally take action.
When they met again, the Liu sisters invited Lin Yan and others to visit the Liu family. Lin Yan thought about it and agreed.
On the one hand, it was because they had not seen each other for a long time, and it was human nature to reminisce about the past; on the other hand, Lin Yan was worried about what danger Liu Ying and the others would encounter in the future, so walking together for a while would ensure their safety.
On the way back, Lin Yan looked at the cars filled with ore and asked:
"Sister Liu Ying, could these be iron ore?" Liu Ying nodded and said:
"Yes, I came out this time to escort this batch of iron ore back to the city." Lin Yan then asked:
"Then the Gao family..." Liu Ying said:
"There are two big families in Gaoyang County, one is the Gao family, and the other is my Liu family. And those people just now are the minions of the Gao family." Then Liu Ying sighed and continued:
"Originally, our Liu family was also a wealthy family in Gaoyang County, but over the years there have been constant internal and external troubles, and our strength has been no longer comparable to that of the Gao family. That's why we have been controlled by others, causing them to become more and more arrogant." After listening to this, Lin Yan said to his heart, "That's it." !
It seems that the fight between the local forces that I heard on the road refers to the Gaoliu family. Liu Yan waved her little fist at the side and said angrily:
"The Gao family is really bullying people! It's so bad that the proposal doesn't come true and they resort to underhanded tactics!" Lin Yan said doubtfully:
"Proposal?" Liu Ying glared at her sister and feigned anger:
"Yan'er!" Liu Yan stuck out her tongue, not afraid at all, which made Liu Ying feel helpless.
She paused and then said slowly:
"Previously when the family was in decline, someone in the family proposed to marry the Gao family, and the candidates were naturally me and the second son of the Gao family." Speaking of this, Liu Ying smiled bitterly. How can women from big families have the freedom to choose their own spouses? Most of them They all fell victim to family interests.
Rumor has it that the second son of the Gao family is a romantic, hanging out in brothels and houses all day long, sleeping under flowers and willows.
Such a libertine is naturally not a good match. But, so what? As a woman, she didn't say anything at all
The power of "no"! Lin Yan didn't know how to comfort Liu Ying, but deep down he didn't want this gentle elder sister to have a bad life. He wanted her to be happy.
In fact, Liu Ying had originally decided to accept her fate, devote herself to others, and spend her life in confusion.
However, that bastard didn't even want to let her sister go. How shameless! Therefore, Liu Ying threatened her with death, and her father asked her ancestors to speak out, so she temporarily suppressed the marriage.
However, after this incident, the Gao family felt they had lost face, and the overt and covert conflicts with the Liu family intensified, eventually leading to today's interception.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, the Gao family's purpose may not be as simple as interception and killing. The two women are not of that weight. It is estimated that what they really want is the few carts of iron ore.
Lin Yan learned from the chat with the Liu sisters that the Gao Liu family was a wealthy family in Gaoyang County, and their foundation was to make various weapons and armor, and the main material was iron ore.
These iron ore mining lands actually belong to the imperial court, and the Gaoliu family has to spend a lot of money every year to acquire the mining rights, and then make weapons and armor, mainly for the use of the sergeants, and the excess will be sold privately.
To put it bluntly, these two big families are similar to processors and earn this amount of money.
There is a quota for the weapons and armor that need to be provided to the army every year. If they cannot be handed over by then, the entire family will be severely punished.
These big families seem to be prosperous, but compared to the imperial court, they are just slightly bigger ants and can be easily crushed to death.
Keeping them is just for long-term interests! Therefore, the interception and killing by the Gao family was indeed
"Kill two birds with one stone" plan! On the one hand, it cuts off the Liu family's source of ore materials and delays the construction period, which can suppress the Liu family without any blood.
On the other hand, kidnapping the two young ladies from the Liu family would not only bring shame on them, but also bring out the bad breath from before, so why not do it?
But by chance, they met Lin Yan, and their perfect plan went bankrupt! After Lin Yan and his party walked away, Gao Da opened his eyes slightly and carefully scanned around to make sure that the plague god would not come back again, then he got up from the ground.
It was true that he fainted just now, but he woke up soon after. The reason why he kept lying there motionless was because he was frightened by Lin Yan's strength. He was afraid that the other party would kill him at a thought, so he simply lay on the ground and pretended to be dead.
His life credo is:
"Wherever you fall, lie down." When encountering a powerful enemy, do as you can and never make the first move.
After Gao Da stood up, he was still a little scared. After all, the pressure Lin Yan put on him was too strong. He defeated them all by himself. The key was that he felt that the other party had not even put any effort into it. Who could withstand this?
He ran around in the field, dragging his fat body to kick up the guys on the ground, and suddenly there was another sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling.
Men say in their hearts:
"The place where I was hit by the plague god just now still hurts. You kicked me again. We are also made of flesh, okay!" Gao Da didn't care about this. What he was thinking about was that such a powerful master suddenly appeared. See He seems to have a close relationship with the Liu family sisters. His arrival is very likely to break the current strength balance between the Gao and Liu families. He has to go back and report to the head of the family quickly.
After cleaning up the remaining defeated soldiers, Gao Da led them towards the city. Lin Yan and others who had left earlier had already entered the city. With Liu Ying, the eldest lady of the Liu family, there was naturally no questioning and everything went smoothly.
As soon as they entered the city, everyone was greeted by a lively scene. Although it was not as prosperous as Chang'an City, it still had its own charm.
The group of people walked around in circles and soon came to a large house. On the plaque in front of the door was engraved
The word "Liu Mansion".
"We're here!" Liu Ying smiled and asked Lin Yan and the others to get out of the car, but a guard had already stepped forward to knock on the door.
"Dong dong dong!" Following the sound of footsteps, a young man who looked like a servant opened the door. He saw Liu Ying and Liu Yan in front of him at a glance. He quickly opened the door and shouted inside:
"Master, Master, the ladies are back!" Under the leadership of Liu Ying, Lin Yan and others stepped forward, while other guards escorted several carts of iron ore through the back door.
Walking into the courtyard, I met a middle-aged man. He was wearing a brocade robe and had a warm smile on his lips, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
However, Lin Yan always felt that this person's smile was awkward. He couldn't say exactly what it felt like, but it might be a bit fake!
The middle-aged man walked quickly to Liu Ying with a worried look on his face and said worriedly:
"Ying'er, I heard from the guards that you were attacked. Let your third uncle take a look. Are there any injuries?" Liu Ying smiled slightly and said:
"Thank you, Third Uncle, for your concern. Yan'er and I are fine." Third Master said happily:
"That's good, that's good! These guards are too useless. I will punish them severely when I turn around!" Liu Ying frowned slightly and said:
"Third Uncle, we didn't expect the Gao family's ambush this time, and the opponent has a large number of people. They have tried their best. Third Uncle, please don't blame me!" Third Master nodded and said:
"Okay, okay, Third Uncle listens to you! You are so kind-hearted!" Then he turned to look at Lin Yan and his group,
Asked "accidentally":
"These are..." Before Liu Ying could speak, Liu Yan rushed to say:
"This is Lin Yan and his friends. It's thanks to him that my sister and I came back safely this time!" Third Master narrowed his eyes and said:
"oh?"
