Chapter 39 Lin Pingzhi Asks for Shelter
This is also what Lin Chen was surprised about.
Logically speaking.
Lin Pingzhi should be protected by the Four Great Constables, so why is he in the capital and beside Yue Buqun?
"The Four Great Constables?" Lin Pingzhi looked confused.
It seemed that he didn't know about this matter.
Yue Buqun saw this and immediately said, "General Lin, Yue rescued Pingzhi who was being hunted down at that time. After learning that his parents had a will, he asked him to come to the Sitong Chamber of Commerce in the capital to get something."
So that's it, Lin Chen's face showed a thoughtful look.
It seems that Yue Buqun wanted to know whether the thing mentioned in Lin Pingzhi's parents' will was the Exorcism Sword Technique, so he secretly brought it here.
So it seems that the Four Great Constables and Lin Pingzhi just missed each other.
Thinking of this, Lin Chen said with a hint of relief in his tone: "Master Lin, I think the Four Great Constables will investigate the murderer of the Lin family blood case."
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Lin Pingzhi's face was more radiant.
Apparently, he had also heard about the Four Famous Detectives.
Seeing this, Lin Chen said no more and turned to go upstairs.
Unexpectedly!
Lin Pingzhi's eyes showed a resoluteness after serious consideration.
Under Lin Chen's stunned gaze.
Lin Pingzhi walked straight to Lin Chen, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
"General Lin, my family is now broken and I only ask the general to take me in. I am willing to be a small soldier and obey you!"
Yue Buqun: "..."
Lin Chen: "..."
What's going on? !
It seems that he had easily taken down Ah San before, and it was known that he was an acquired warrior.
At the same time, as a military officer of the court, he also let Lin Pingzhi see a different way of revenge.
Originally, Lin Pingzhi planned to join the Huashan sect and practice martial arts for revenge.
However, after this period of contact, Lin Pingzhi discovered in grief.
With his qualifications, even if he practiced in Huashan for more than ten years, he would probably not be the opponent of Yu Canghai.
In addition, Lin Pingzhi also learned about Yue Buqun's reputation in the martial arts world.
Gentleman Sword!
In other words, Lin Pingzhi could not let Yue Buqun, as his master, attack the Qingcheng Sect, a fellow sect.
Various coincidences combined to make Lin Pingzhi make such a choice.
Lin Chen was speechless for a moment, and looked at Yue Buqun with his peripheral vision.
Sure enough.
The gentle smile on the other's face froze.
This feeling was like a cooked duck, but someone else got there first.
Lin Chen listened to Lin Pingzhi's heavy kowtow and couldn't help but sigh.
Well, anyway.
"You get up first."
Lin Chen waved his sleeves, and Lin Pingzhi found that his body was supported by some force.
"In that case, you go to the Wucheng Bingmasi to report."
Under his own hands.
At least Lin Pingzhi would not end up as a half-human and half-ghost.
"Thank you, Lord Commander!" Lin Pingzhi was overjoyed when he heard this.
Seeing this, Lin Chen reminded him: "Don't forget the life-saving grace of Master Yue."
Lin Pingzhi suddenly realized and picked up the silver bills that the shopkeeper of Sitong Chamber of Commerce had brought.
"Master Yue, I can't repay your life-saving grace, please accept these silver bills!"
This stack of silver bills is worth 70,000 taels!
It is enough to repay the life-saving grace.
Yue Buqun's hand brushing his beard could not help but increase the strength, but he couldn't let people see the flaw.
"Fool."
Yue Buqun pretended to sigh and didn't move.
It was still Ning Zhongze, the master's wife, who came forward and comforted him.
It was said that Yue Buqun saved people's lives, not for money.
Indeed.
In Ning Zhongze's view, her husband was such a noble person.
However, Lin Pingzhi's attitude was firm, as if he would not get up if he didn't accept the money.
At this point, Ning Zhongze just accepted the banknotes, and Lin Pingzhi also said goodbye to the Huashan disciples, saying frankly that he had been taken care of during this period.
This scene, on the other hand, only felt warm and harmonious to outsiders.
If it were spread out, it would be another good story.
Yue Buqun and his party left.
Yue Lingshan looked back every few steps, wanting to say something but stopping.
Finally, she was also pulled by her mother Ning Zhongze and left the Sitong Chamber of Commerce.
"Ling'er, do you know that we in the martial arts world must remember to stay away from court officials."
Yue Lingshan, with her mouth raised high, obviously disagreed with what her mother said.
Seeing his daughter like this, Ning Zhongze joked: "What? Did you forget about the senior brother after going out?"
"Hmm~"
Yue Lingshan's face showed hesitation when she heard this.
If possible, she wanted to have them all.
It's a pity that she is still a little girl and can't make the choice of an adult.
Lin Chen looked at Lin Pingzhi and saw the respectful attitude on his face.
"Interesting." Lin Chen suddenly laughed. "How do you know that Yue Buqun also wants your Lin family's Exorcism Sword Technique?"
Lin Pingzhi bowed his head even deeper when he heard this.
"People in the martial arts world cannot be trusted!"
When Lin Pingzhi said this, his tone was as if he was gritting his teeth.
Whether it was Yu Canghai who killed his entire family, or his grandfather's Golden Sword Sect.
Hearing this, Lin Chen shook his head imperceptibly.
Obviously, the kid in front of him had gone to an extreme because of his various experiences.
"Then aren't you worried that this general wants your Lin family's Exorcism Sword Technique?" Lin Chen couldn't help but joked.
"If the general wants it, I am willing to give it to you!"
"Forget it, this general doesn't want to castrate himself."
Under the stunned face of Lin Pingzhi who suddenly raised his head, Lin Chen told the truth about the so-called Exorcism Sword Technique.
"Do you know that this sword technique of exorcising evil spirits is derived from the profound martial arts in the palace, the Sunflower Manual."
"This Sunflower Manual was created by the eunuchs of the previous dynasty. Practitioners must cut off their roots to practice it."
Lin Chen looked at Lin Pingzhi with interest, "If you want to practice the Sunflower Manual, this commander-in-chief has a way to send you to the palace."
Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi shuddered all over and shook his head desperately.
"I am the only child of the Lin family, and I have to inherit the bloodline."
Lin Pingzhi said carefully, fearing that Lin Chen would really send him to the palace.
At this time, Lin Pingzhi obviously had not yet made up his mind to castrate himself.
"In that case, you should report to the Wucheng Military Department first, and someone will naturally receive you."
"Yes!"
Lin Chen looked at Lin Pingzhi's back as he left, and then went to the third floor.
The third floor occupies a smaller area than the second floor, with only an elegantly decorated teahouse.
Zhao Ming, who was fanning himself and drinking tea, still acted like a rich young man.
"General Lin, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
Lin Chen said nothing, but walked to the tea table and sat down, picked up the tea and drank it all.
Zhao Ming frowned slightly when he saw this.
"General Lin doesn't know tea."
His tone seemed to blame Lin Chen for chewing on a peony.
"Isn't this tea for quenching people's thirst?" Lin Chen said indifferently.
Zhao Ming couldn't help showing a look of approval on his face when he heard this: "Then General Lin, isn't he afraid that you will poison me?"
Zhao Ming smiled with his hands covering his mouth, and his movements seemed a bit effeminate.
If it were an outsider, he would only complain in his heart.
However, Lin Chen knew that Zhao Ming was a girl!
