It is really unexpected that there is a disfigured Mr. Lin in the Lin Mansion!

So who is Mr. Lin on their ox cart?

Jiang Jiyun glanced calmly at the ox cart in the distance. Judging from the situation today, they might not be able to enter the city for the time being.

After Jiang Jiyun and Jiang Wenming thanked everyone at the tea stall, the uncle and nephew left hand in hand.

Back to the carriage, Lin Weizhao couldn't contain his excitement and asked impatiently, "When can we enter the city?"

Jiang Wenming took a deep breath and replied solemnly, "We may not be able to enter the city today. As far as I know, Master Lin miraculously survived the car explosion, but his face has been disfigured and he is currently receiving treatment in the hospital."

"Who? Which Mr. Lin?" When Lin Weizhao heard this, all the wealthy families with the surname Lin in Yichun City flashed through his mind, but for a moment he could not think of any Mr. Lin who would have the same thing happen to him.

Jiang Jiyun quickly explained, "The Mr. Lin they are talking about is Brigade Commander Lin's father—Mr. Lin Weizhao."

When Lin Weizhao heard this, his heart sank suddenly and his eyes narrowed, as if he understood something in an instant.

He muttered to himself, "So that's how it is. Someone has impersonated me! It seems my car's explosion wasn't an accident, but was intentional."

"But they never expected that a group of robbers would suddenly show up on the way, and at the moment the explosion happened, I had just secretly gotten out of the car."

Seeing that several people around him were staring at him, Lin Weizhao couldn't help but feel a little nervous, fearing that these people had some bad thoughts about him.

He quickly explained, "Everyone, I'm really Lin Weizhao! My hometown is in Pizhou, Xu City, Jiangsu Province. My son studied at the Whampoa Military Academy. After graduation, he joined the army and later became an officer."

He paused, then continued, "In the summer of 1940, that traitor heard about my daughter from somewhere, and he brought a group of devils to my house, using threats and inducements to force my daughter to marry him as his concubine."

"My wife and I couldn't bear to watch our daughter jump into the fire. We had no choice but to sneak out under the cover of night and travel all the way here just to find my son and have someone to rely on. Later, we settled down here and gradually moved our business here."

Lin Weizhao spoke vividly, and as Jiang Wenming and Jiang Jiyun listened, they suddenly felt that what he said seemed familiar.

A picture suddenly flashed through Jiang Jiyun's mind. She remembered that she once met a runaway bride. At that time, she took advantage of the situation and stole a lot of precious money from the traitor's family, and even took away the quilt.

Jiang Wenming seemed to have recalled something. He frowned slightly and asked, "What was the name of the traitor you just mentioned who wanted to force your daughter to be his concubine?"

When Lin Weizhao heard this, his face flushed with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "That traitor's name is Gou Chengyi. Everyone calls him Director Gou!"

Jiang Jiyun and Jiang Wenming both confirmed that the Lin family was the family of the runaway bride they knew. What a damn fate.

Jiang Jiyuan and his men didn't know what was going on inside. He looked toward the city gate and said, "Let's leave here first and find a place to settle down. We'll go back into the city tomorrow to get some information."

Several people left on a creaking ox cart, the wheels making a rhythmic sound on the muddy road.

They passed through a lush field and finally arrived at a nearby village.

The houses in the village are arranged in an orderly manner, with wisps of blue smoke coming out of the chimneys on the roofs, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of firewood.

They asked around in the village and finally found a family willing to rent them an empty house for temporary stay.

Oda went to the village to find someone to buy some fresh vegetables.

At this time, Lin Weizhao was still explaining his identity to Jiang Jiyuan.

He recounted his experiences and background in detail, trying to make Jiang Jiyuan believe what he said.

However, the uncle and nephew who were squatting together in the room nodded from time to time, which made Jiang Jiyuan feel very strange.

He couldn't help but ask, "Do you know him?"

When Lin Weizhao heard this, he couldn't help but look at the two people, one big and one small, with strange expressions.

Jiang Wenming had no idea that Jiang Jiyun had completely looted Director Gou's house.

Of the looted items, only a few boxes of gold bars are left hidden in the mall.

Jiang Jiyun was afraid of letting something slip, so he didn't dare to speak and just listened to Lin Weizhao's explanation silently.

Seeing Jiang Jiyun's reluctance to respond, Jiang Wenming took the initiative to speak, "We all know about Director Gou's sixth concubine running away from the wedding. On the wedding day, the bride unexpectedly ran away, and even more unexpectedly, Director Gou also died that day."

"Not only that, the property that the Gou family had helped the devils loot was also stolen on the same day. The entire city was blocked at the time, and we were trapped there for several days before we were able to move south."

Lin Weizhao never expected that he would meet someone who knew about his hometown in this place.

At this moment, Jiang Jiyun also interjected at the right time: "I have seen the bride with my own eyes. Tell me, how did she escape? Where did she escape from?"

Facing Jiang Jiyun's question, Lin Weizhao was silent for a moment, then slowly uttered two words: "Dog hole."

Jiang Jiyun nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, then turned to Jiang Jiyuan and said, "Brother, what he said is true. My uncle and I happened to be watching a play at the time. I was playing games with the kids there near that dog hole. I saw her crawl out of the dog hole with my own eyes."

Jiang Jiyuan had limited knowledge of their itinerary. He only knew that they were heading south and that things were not going so smoothly for them before they met him.

What he didn't expect was that they had heard something about the Lin family.

Jiang Wenming revealed to Jiang Jiyuan, "As far as I know, his daughter's name is Lin Peiyao. When we were staying at the hotel, the innkeeper told us that she was a famous beauty in Pizhou City!"

"Unfortunately, she has long been targeted by those dog spies. However, many people also deeply admire Master Lin's courage and determination."

"To ensure his daughter's safety, he resolutely abandoned everything at home and took his wife and daughter to look for his son who had joined the army."

After hearing this, Lin Weizhao became extremely emotional and couldn't wait to ask, "You said that bastard Gou Chengyi is dead?"
