Frontier Army Warrior
Chapter 13 Is There Still Law?
Steward Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Feng's expression soften.
He really didn't expect that this big stupid guy in front of him would suddenly become such a cruel person?
It was not until a sharp scimitar was pressed against his neck, forcing him to dig a hole for himself, that he truly felt the fear of death.
"What's the Tartar's name?"
"His name is Gulijia. He's a short, stocky man in his forties with a big beard."
In order to survive, Butler Lin completely betrayed the head of the family.
"When do they make deals?"
"I really don't know about that. I only saw it once with Lin Tong."
Lin Feng rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.
"Okay, go back. Remember, we are on the same boat. If I capsize, you will drown too."
"Don't worry, Sergeant. I know how powerful he is."
Butler Lin dragged his heavy legs and walked out of the house.
When he was almost at the door, he remembered it and turned around to hold the IOU in his hands.
"Master Shichang, I'm returning this to you. I'll settle the account for you."
Lin Feng took the IOU and waved his hand.
Only then did Butler Lin leave the house with peace of mind.
Cui Yikki ran in from outside.
"Sergeant, what should we do with those two guys?"
"Let them pay for their lives. If they can afford it, they can live."
Cui Yijiao nodded in agreement and turned to leave. Butler Lin returned to the house.
"Master, those two guys are relatives of Gua Ranzi in the village. Can you please..."
Lin Feng sat on a sheepskin mattress and warmed his hands by the fire.
"Butler Lin, do you know how much a Tartar head is worth?"
Butler Lin went to look at Cui Yijiao in confusion, after all, the two were very familiar with each other.
Cui Yijiao chuckled: "Butler Lin, our boss said that you have to pay for your life. Otherwise, the pit outside has been dug and it won't be difficult to bury someone."
"How much...is this...?"
"Didn't you hear? If we hand over two heads to the higher-ups, we'll be rewarded with several acres of land, and we'll even be promoted. Hehe, how much silver do you say?"
The two sturdy boys are both guards of Lin Tong's family, and are brought out by housekeeper Lin to collect debts.
Now that he has returned alive, the two boys are nowhere to be found. How can he explain this?
He rubbed his hands anxiously: "This, this..."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Butler Lin, you don't have to pay for this. Go back and tell Lin Tong that these two people are secretly communicating with the Tartars. If he doesn't pay the ransom, we will escort him to the court and report him."
Butler Lin said helplessly, "But what if Mr. Lin... doesn't want to take the money?"
Before Lin Feng could speak, Cui Yijiao sneered.
"His people are secretly communicating with the Tartars. As their master, can you escape responsibility?"
Butler Lin immediately understood the key points and sighed.
The big fool in front of me has overturned my previous image, and I have to be careful when dealing with him from now on.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may find yourself in an irretrievable situation.
Butler Lin left, leaving behind a lot of entanglements and contradictions, but more of helplessness and admiration.
At noon the next day, Lin Feng was having lunch when he heard someone loudly knocking on the door outside the camp.
Cui Yijiao and Li Xiong have already gone out to scout.
Wu Er has not returned yet after reporting his achievements.
Currently, there are only Lin Feng and the bedridden Wang Qian in the camp.
There was also a woman who served the king.
Plus Bai Jing who works inside and outside.
Lin Feng came to the partition of the camp fence and looked out.
It was discovered that there were more than a dozen people standing in front of the drawbridge of the trench. They were wearing gray clothes and short brown robes, and each of them was strong and sturdy.
In front of him is a middle-aged man riding a horse, wearing a brocade robe, a formal scarf on his head, and three long beards.
Lin Feng saw Steward Lin standing in front of the middle-aged man's horse in a very proper manner.
Seeing Lin Feng show up, Butler Lin immediately shouted loudly.
"Captain Lin, my master wants to see you. Please open the door."
Lin Feng held onto the camp fence and said, "If you have something to say, just say it here. This is a strategically located area, and no outsiders are allowed to enter."
"Fengzi, I am your uncle, not a stranger. Open the door."
The middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice.
"Hey, how come I didn't know I had an uncle? Tell me his name."
"You, Fengzi, you dare to speak such disobedient words. Do you still have the law in your eyes?"
"Hehe, I don't know if it's disobedience or not, but if someone is secretly communicating with the Tartars, I wonder if the king's law can stop it."
"How dare you! How could my family become spies collaborating with the Tartars? You are clearly making this up."
Lin Feng waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, what do you want to do?"
The person riding on the horse was Lin Tong. He reached into his arms, took out an envelope, and held it in his hand.
"This is an official letter from the Qingshui County Government, proving my family's innocence. Please release them immediately."
Lin Feng knew that the Qingshui County Government and the Zhenxi Border Army were two different systems.
One is the local government and the other is responsible for border security.
The two sides are not subordinate to each other.
However, local county governments have the responsibility to help border troops maintain border security, and border troops also have the obligation to maintain local public order.
"Haha, if you have the ability to get an official letter from the Border Army Headquarters, I will release him immediately."
"you..."
Lin Tong was so angry that his face turned red. In front of his servants and guards, Lin Feng didn't give him any face at all.
"Fengzi, you're hiding in there feeling quite safe, but have you ever thought about your father and sister still being at home?"
Lin Feng sneered: "Old fellow, if you dare to have secret dealings with the Tartars, I will destroy you first."
He waved back, and Bai Jing was already holding his bow and arrow.
Seeing him waving, he immediately raised the bow and arrow in front of Lin Feng.
Lin Feng took the bow and arrow in his hand, slowly put on the bowstring, and pulled the bowstring, making it make a bang bang bang sound.
Lin Tong narrowed his eyes and felt disdainful.
Who are you trying to scare with just a fool like you?
As Lin Feng's uncle, he certainly understood the character of his nephew.
Although Butler Lin went back to report.
But Lin Tong simply didn't believe that his nephew could do such a thing. There must be someone else behind it.
At this time, a servant came up to him.
"Master, our men are in the trench."
"Ok?"
Lin Tongtima took two steps forward and looked down at the bottom of the trench.
The two guards who followed Steward Lin yesterday were huddled in a ball in the trench.
The trench was very deep and it was impossible to climb out without a rope. It was cold and the two men were frozen all night.
Although he was strong, he couldn't stand the cold wind at night.
They were shivering all over and hugged each other to keep warm.
Lin Tong's face turned pale and he looked up and glared at Lin Feng fiercely.
"Come on, pull them up quickly."
A servant or guard agreed, and a few people came up and held hands to help the man down into the trench.
As the servants came to the edge of the trench and bent down, they heard the sound of a bowstring being tightened.
A feathered arrow was lodged at the edge of the trench.
"Those who dare to rescue others will be punished as if they were traitors to the Tartars."
Lin Feng shouted in a deep voice.
Several servants stood there in a daze, and all looked at Lin Tong with confused expressions.
Lin Tong looked up at Lin Feng with disdain.
"Boy, you've made it big. You dare to act arrogantly in front of your uncle? Come on, shoot here and let me see your courage."
Lin Tong patted his chest as he spoke.
Lin Feng licked his lips and raised his hand to pull the bow.
The bow made a creaking sound, and a murderous aura spread all around.
