Chapter 76

Lin Xiuran was stunned, staring at him in disbelief, and after a long pause, he asked in a difficult voice: "Fei Mo... what do you mean by that?"

Lin Feimo looked mournful, his hands trembling uncontrollably, opened the tightly wrapped wooden box, and untied the layers of talisman seals inside, revealing a delicately carved jade seal.

"Lin Maofan rebelled and murdered the head of the family in an attempt to seize power! Three days ago, the head of the family was seriously injured and fell, and the whole city of Xihe mourned. Lin Maofan used the excuse of the young master to travel far away, and wanted to take the order of the head of the family, but was refuted by the elders. Unexpectedly... Lin Maofan colluded with the demons, and the bones of the head of the family were not cold. , he sealed off the whole city, trying to seize the patriarch's decree, thanks to the desperate efforts of the several elders in the family, this prevented Lin Maofan from taking away the seal..."

Lin Feimo looked up at Lin Xiuran, his eyes were red, and he said in a hoarse voice: "The patriarch handed over the token to Uncle Zhou when he was dying, and asked him to pass it on to the young master. Pass the token over to me, and order Feimo...be sure to hand this thing over to at least the master!"

Lin Xiuran shook for a while, Yin Chengyu quickly reached out to help him, but Lin Xiuran pulled away.

"go on."

"Uncle Zhou dealt with Lin Maofan alone. Seeing that he was unwilling to reveal the whereabouts of the master order, Lin Maofan actually used the soul-searching technique on him! The uncle ordered more than a hundred guards in the family to send him off to death, and broke out from the Lin family all the way in blood. After leaving Xihe, more than half of it was lost. Originally, I wanted to go straight to Moling to find the young master, but I didn't expect to be ambushed on the way. In order to prevent the token from being robbed, the guards divided into three groups to form a suspicious formation. It was originally agreed to meet yesterday night , but last night...the other two groups of people couldn't even get in touch with a living person! Even the guards guarding me...all..."

Lin Xiuran's whole body was stiff, and he could barely lift his hands. The patriarch's decree that caused the bloodbath was nothing more than a square-inch jade seal. between.

But for Lin Xiuran, this small seal weighs more than a thousand ounces at this moment.

"Wait a minute!" Yin Chengyu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up, stood in front of Lin Xiuran, and looked at Lin Feimo coldly, "Lin Maofan murdered the head of the Lin family? Then what role did you play in it!"

He suddenly made an attack, and what he said seemed to mean something, which caught Lin Feimo off guard, and his eyes widened in astonishment.

Uncle hooked up with the demons to murder his father, such an accident, I am afraid that no one would be in a trance under the shock, Yin Chengyu said this at the moment, even Lin Feimo was as frightened as a bird.

Yin Chengyu had no time to care about other things, he just looked at Lin Feimo coldly, and said aggressively: "You were attacked when you went down the mountain in the past, and you were really rescued by the so-called Nanhai casual cultivator, and you have been missing for several months now, have you heard nothing about it?"

Lin Feimo's face turned pale in an instant, his whole body began to tremble, and he mumbled a bit, but in the end he hesitated and couldn't speak.

Anyone who looked at him would know that he was guilty. Lin Xiuran only felt that he was already top-heavy and almost fell down.

But he didn't fall down after all. Now that the patriarch's decree has been handed down to him, he is now the Patriarch of the Lin family, bearing the life and death of the entire Xihe Lin family on his shoulders, even if there is a sudden change and he is alone and helpless, even if he is no more in the eyes of others now. A young boy under 20 years old...

The world of comprehension is long, even Lin Maozhi's age is still young compared to his cultivation base, and for the head of a top family in the world of comprehension, his age is even more immature .

As for Lin Xiuran, in the eyes of others, I'm afraid he's not too young, not even old enough to be treated seriously.

Throughout the ages, in order to compete for the treasures of exercises, countless bloody storms have been set off, brothers turned against each other, and married couples became enemies, all in a single thought.The Lin family's huge foundation may have been coveted long ago.

But even so, everyone else can fall, but Lin Xiuran can't.

"My lord!" Lin Feimo stepped forward two steps on his knees, and explained in a panic, breaking down in tears, "It's not like that, lord!"

Yin Chengyu stretched out his hand and took Lin Xiuran into his arms, and said in a bad tone: "Why, what do you want to make up?"

Lin Xiuran broke free from Yin Chengyu's arms, closed his eyes, opened them again after a while, and said coldly: "The pursuers are coming, I will explain this matter later."

Seeing him like this, Yin Chengyu also knew that he would not pursue Lin Feimo's matter for the time being. He was full of dissatisfaction, and was afraid that Lin Feimo would harm Lin Xiuran, but in the end he still couldn't resist Lin Xiuran's intentions, so it was not good to face Lin Feimo It was too aggressive, so I had to take him on the flying boat.

Since Lin Maofeng rebelled, the Lin family must not be able to go back. The road directly to the Lin family and the road to Moling must have been monitored by Lin Maofeng's people, involving the demons. Going to Xihe or Moling is tantamount to death.

If they stayed in Shucheng, they would probably sit still and wait to die.

"Fei Mo was injured, so let's take a detour to Niyang to heal Fei Mo." Lin Xiuran calmly arranged, "Fei Mo, when you left Xihe, how was the situation in the city?"

Lin Feimo's emotions had just calmed down a little. Seeing him mentioning the things in the city, tears rolled down his eyes again, and his voice was choked up and he said intermittently: "Xihe has now completely fallen, blood is flowing like a river, and even the golden soup formation has died. Covered by corpses, all the passages in and out of the city have been blocked, and those who escaped by chance scattered in all directions, contacted various aristocratic families to see if they could bring in rescue soldiers, but the side branches have not been affected too much."

Lin Xiuran looked at Lin Feimo with red eyes, and sneered for a long time: "Rescue soldiers? Even if it is because of the raging demons, the rest of the families are willing to send troops to help for fear of being affected... But you really think they will Sending troops in vain? I'm afraid that the day they re-enter the Xihe River to wipe out the traitors will be the day when wolves will be lured into the house!"

"How could it be!" Lin Feimo shouted, "But if you don't ask other families for help, can you... just watch Xihe fall into the hands of Lin Maofan and the demons!"

"The Yin family's lessons from the past are still in front of us. When disaster strikes, these aristocratic families who have been friends with each other in the past will be the first to come up and suck their blood! The family fortune accumulated by the ancestors... I will definitely take it back, today What happened, will definitely be paid in blood in the future!"

Lin Feimo's expression was terrified, and he choked up and said, "My lord... no, Patriarch... we are only a handful of people, what are we going to do to take back Xihe!"

Lin Xiuran lowered his head, staring at the ring in his hand and the patriarch's seal. After a long time, the tears that had been suppressed for a long time finally dripped down and shattered on the delicate knob of the seal, scattering into a cloud of mist.

But soon he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and raised his head again: "There are private soldiers and secret guards everywhere in the Lin family, and the commander only recognizes tokens but not people. Since the tokens have arrived in my hands, there is a thread Opportunities can win them over, and as for the Patriarch's order...do you think this is really just a seal?"

"The Lin family's true treasures of resources and even the succession of opportunities are all in the Patriarch's order."

Yin Chengyu was still driving the flying boat at first, but when he heard this, he gave Lin Xiuran a surprised look. Lin Feimo felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The tears on his face had flowed to his cheeks, and he didn't bother to wipe them away.

The secrets in the patriarch's decree are known to no one other than the past patriarchs. If Lin Xiuran and Yin Chengyu revealed one or two things, it would be understandable considering the relationship between the two Taoist couples. He is already regarded as a confidant in his confidant.

Lin Feimo knelt down on the ground trembling all over, weeping uncontrollably: "Fei Mo... swear to die to repay the kindness of the Patriarch!"

Lin Xiuran looked down at Lin Feimo noncommittally. Seeing him like this, Lin Feimo took the initiative to mention what Yin Chengyu said earlier.

"After Fei Mo went down the mountain that day... it was true that he was not rescued by Nanhai Loose Cultivator, but was placed in a side courtyard of the Lin family. After waking up, he found that his dantian was empty, and he couldn't even gather Qi. .”

"Is it Lin Maofan?" Lin Xiuran asked.

Lin Feimo lowered his head even more, and said with a sob: "Lin Maofan threatened me with this incident and ordered me to monitor the young master for him. I didn't understand what he meant at that time. Now that I think about it... I'm afraid it's because of Minghe Mountain. It can’t get in.”

Lin Xiuran nodded: "So you agreed to him at the time, but after you returned to Minghe Mountain, your temperament changed drastically and you avoided seeing me. Later, you even found an excuse to go down the mountain to practice, but you didn't want to do what he said?"

"Yes……"

"Lin Maofan went to deal with you in person without any fear, but did you put a restraint in your body, or is there some other way to prevent you from mentioning this matter?" Lin Xiuran asked.

Lin Feimo froze for a moment, choked up and said after a long time: "Never."

"Then why have you never mentioned this to me, or to your father?"

Lin Feimo finally couldn't take it anymore, wept loudly, and said hoarsely: "It's all me... I caused it... I'm afraid that the young master will have a grudge against me because of this matter, and I'm afraid that the master will drive me out of the Lin family. Lin Maofeng said clearly at the time , saying that it is only for self-protection, it will never be harmful to the young master, it is because I am obsessed with ghosts that I can do what he wants..."

Lin Xiuran watched Lin Feimo wailing quietly, and when he finally stopped crying, he said coldly: "Lin Maofan had planned it long ago, and you are just an insignificant chess piece to him. His plans wouldn't have changed much without you. I don't blame you for that."

Lin Feimo opened his eyes wide in disbelief, Lin Xiuran looked straight at him, and continued word by word: "But father and the members of the Lin family who died in this incident will not forgive you, if you really have regrets in your heart , and wait until after the calamity has been settled, and apologize in person in front of the spirit tablets of the victims and the spirit of the father who adopted you as his adopted son."

Lin Feimo didn't say anything for a long time, and waited until Lin Xiuran turned his head away before he bowed down and said, "Yes..."
