No wonder Chen Yidao thought so. Unless something unexpected happened to the Lin family, otherwise, Li Hu would not have rushed back to Langqi Island to find Lin Pingzhi.

Li Hu nodded and said: "These days, many wealthy gentry and business owners are blocking the door of the Lin family. However, the Lin family's general bodyguard suddenly fell ill. Mrs. Lin is the only one in the family. I am worried that something unexpected will happen. Xiao Linzi should go back."

Let’s see what’s going on.”

Chen Yidao nodded. Lin Pingzhi was Lin Zhennan's only son. Now that Lin Zhennan fell ill for no apparent reason, and the family suddenly lost a pillar of support, Lin Pingzhi naturally needed to go back.

He glanced at Li Hu and said, "Go to the beach where you used to practice swordsmanship to find Lin Pingzhi."

Seeing Li Hu hurried away, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but said in confusion: "It's strange. Mr. Lin's head and body are not bad, how could he suddenly fall ill? And you also heard that there seem to be many wealthy gentry and merchants blocking the Lin family.

Gate, this seems a little strange."

Chen Yidao scratched his head, glanced at Zhao Zhi and said, "Ask me, I'm not Lin Zhennan, how could I possibly know what happened?"

As he spoke, Chen Yidao glanced at Zhao Zhidao and said, "Do you want to report this to the old lady?"

Zhao Zhi shook his head slightly and said: "Don't worry, the old lady is old after all. It's better to wait until I go to the Lin family to see what happened and then consider whether to report it to the old lady. Otherwise,

When the time comes, it will be a false alarm, but it will actually scare the old lady out."

Among the messy rocks, more than a dozen figures were facing the waves in the sea, constantly wielding their swords to attack the oncoming waves.

One of the figures has a tall and straight body. Although his face is full of healthy bronze color, it can be seen that his facial features are still quite handsome. He is shirtless and looks very heroic.

Lin Pingzhi stood firmly in the seawater with his legs in a horse stance, as if his feet were nailed there. Despite the impact of the seawater, his body remained as motionless as a mountain.

And a long knife in his hand kept swinging towards the waves that were coming. The knife was steady and powerful, giving people the feeling that even if it was a big mountain coming towards them, his knife could chop it into pieces.

I have to say that Lin Pingzhi's whole person has really undergone earth-shaking changes in the two years he spent practicing on Langqi Island with people like Li Hu and Li Guo.

Compared to the handsome young man from a wealthy family two or three years ago, Lin Pingzhi has now killed pirates, beheaded Japanese bandits, seen blood, and has a bit more of a manly spirit.

"kill!"

Accompanied by a loud shout, another slash came out, breaking the waves that were coming. There was a faint feeling of weakness in his arms, but Lin Pingzhi had no intention of stopping at all.

The effect of using the power of waves to practice your horse-stepping skills and sword skills in the sea is amazing. The effect of one year of practice is enough to be worth several years of practice for ordinary people.

This idea proposed by Li Huan actually shined brightly on Chen Yidao, Lin Pingzhi and others, causing an explosive improvement in the strength of Lin Pingzhi, Li Guo and others.

Among them, Lin Pingzhi was the most advanced, and his progress was far faster than anyone else. Although Li Guo, Li Hu and others were also able to enjoy the various resources provided by the Li family for cultivation.

But after all, those resources cannot really be supplied continuously. Chen Yidao and Zhao Zhi are already quite willing to invest, but compared with Lin Pingzhi, the Lin family has a big business behind it, and the Fuwei Escort Bureau has access to the north and south.

He brought back many precious medicinal materials for Lin Pingzhi.

As a result, if Lin Pingzhi's cultivation speed is not as good as that of people like Li Guo and Li Hu, then it can only be said that his qualifications are not good enough.

At this moment, a shout came, alarming several people who were practicing.

"Xiao Linzi, Xiao Linzi..."

Lin Pingzhi stopped waving the long knife in his hand, heard the sound and looked towards the direction where the sound came from, and saw Li Hu striding towards them.

When they saw Li Hu, the eyes of everyone practicing swordsmanship in the sea lit up.

Lin Pingzhi exhaled and slowly stepped out of the sea to face Li Hu and said: "Brother Hu, didn't you go to Fuzhou City to take charge? How come you have time to come back?"

Li Hu looked at Lin Pingzhi with a somewhat solemn look on his face and said, "Pingzhi, I came back this time just to bring you news."

Lin Pingzhi couldn't help being stunned, and glanced at Li Hu in surprise. He was quite puzzled, but soon he looked at Li Hu with a move in his heart and said, "Brother Hu, did your father ask you to bring a letter to me?"

Li Hu said sternly: "Pingzhi, your father suddenly fell ill, and in the past few days there have been inexplicably many wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen blocking the door of your home. I was worried about something, so I came back to let you know... …”

Before Li Hu finished speaking, Lin Pingzhi's expression changed, he exclaimed, grabbed Li Hu and said: "Brother Hu, what happened to my father? He is young and strong, how could he suddenly fall ill..." "

Li Hu was grabbed by Lin Pingzhi and felt a sharp pain coming from his shoulder. He quickly used his strength to resist it and said with a bitter smile: "I don't know what's going on, so you'd better go home. Everything will be clear after thinking about it." Already."

Lin Pingzhi came to his senses, nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, I'll go home right now!"

Just when Lin Pingzhi hurried to the dock, he saw a figure standing beside a boat that had been prepared with a smile, waiting for him. Who could it be if it wasn't Zhao Zhi.

When he saw Zhao Zhi, Lin Pingzhi was slightly startled and said: "Uncle Zhi, what are you..."

Zhao Zhi looked at Li Hu who was following Lin Pingzhi. Li Guo and others said: "Li Hu brought a letter saying that your father fell ill. How old is the old lady? Since the young master is not here, I will accompany you to the Lin family for a walk." Let’s go and see what’s going on. If there’s anything we need help with, it’s the Li family’s responsibility.”

With Mrs. Lin here, the relationship between the Lin family and the Li family will not be severed. What's more, when the Li family was in trouble, Lin Zhennan brought people to help at night. Although it didn't help much in the end, this relationship, based on the Li family, Chen Yidao and Zhao Zhi, who were self-proclaimed, were firmly remembered in their hearts.

Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but feel moved when he heard this and looked at Zhao Zhidao: "Uncle Zhi, you..."

Zhao Zhi jumped onto the boat, and at the same time said to Lin Pingzhi: "Okay, don't worry, hurry up and get on the boat. If you go back early, you can know what happened!"

After saying that, Zhao Zhi turned to Li Guo and Li Hu said, "You two should follow too!"

After hearing this, Li Guo and Li Hu quickly jumped onto the boat together with Lin Pingzhi.

We hurried all the way to the shore, then changed to a carriage at the Li family's stronghold at Fuzhou Port and rushed all the way to Fuzhou City.

Lin's Mansion

Several carriages stopped in front of the Lin family's mansion, and several merchants in rich clothes and big bellies stepped out of the carriages and held hands with each other.

The leader among them was Wang Zuye, a cloth merchant from Fuzhou City. Wang Zuye was heard saying to the others: "Everyone, we have made an appointment to see Lin Zhennan today. No matter what, we want him to give you an accurate answer."

The tea merchant Hu Hai nodded slightly and said: "Yes, our escort escorted by the Fuwei Escort Bureau was robbed. That is their Fuwei Escort Bureau's business. You must know that when the escort was escorted, it was clearly stated in black and white that once the escort was escorted out of the way,

If there is any accident, Fuwei Escort Agency must compensate according to the price. Now half a month has passed, and he, Lin Zhennan, has not fulfilled the contract, so he can't just be so unclear and not even have an explanation."

Fang Ke, a jewelry merchant on the side, stroked his beard and said: "Brother Wang, Brother Hu, what you said is right. If Lin Zhennan doesn't give an explanation today, then don't blame us for not talking about our past friendship and follow the example of others."

The lawsuit filed against him, Lin Zhennan, took him to the government."

Several people looked at the closed door of Lin Mansion and immediately stepped forward, raised their big hands and banged on the door.

Soon an old servant opened the door. When he saw the leaders Wang Zuye, Hu Hai, and Fang Ke, their expressions changed.

Looking at the smiling faces of Wang Zuye and others, the old servant said: "Masters, this is..."

After looking at the old servant, Wang Zuye said directly to the old servant: "Okay, take us to see Lin Zhennan quickly."

When the old servant heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Guys, my chief bodyguard cannot afford to be ill. I'm afraid..."

When Wang Zuye heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice several times and shouted loudly at the old servant: "What, Lin Zhennan can't afford to be sick?"

The old servant nodded under the cannibalistic gazes of Wang Zuya, Hu Hai and others and said: "The chief escort has been ill since yesterday and can no longer see guests! You guys will have to wait for another day..."

I thought that after listening to my explanation, these people would consider coming to see Lin Zhennan another day, but they never thought that Wang Zuye directly stretched out his hand to push the old servant aside, glared at the old servant and said: "Old guy, don't take this

He deceived us, doesn’t Lin Zhennan think he can get away with it by pretending to be sick?”

Fang Ke said very rudely: "Yes, don't say that Lin Zhennan is pretending to be ill. Even if he really can't afford to be ill, even if he is about to die of illness, then he must see us and give us people

An explanation."

"Yes, yes, we must see Lin Zhennan!"

It has to be said that there was quite a commotion at the door, and it even attracted the attention of many people who passed by the Lin family's door.

The entrance of the Lin family's mansion faces the quite bustling long street. People are coming and going on the long street. There was such a commotion in front of the Lin family's gate, which even attracted the attention of many people.

Among the crowd, someone looked at the merchants standing in front of the Lin family's gate and whispered: "The Lin family may be in big trouble this time. This is the first wave of people who have come to the door."

"The Lin family has a great business, but they can't bear the thought of being kidnapped one after another during the past two years. Even if they have money and wealth, they can't bear such compensation."

"Who would have thought that the golden brand name of Linjia Fuwei Escort Agency for decades would suddenly stop working. I heard that in the past year or two, Fuwei Escort Agency has been robbed at least two or three times out of ten times.

A large number of bodyguards died and were injured, and I don’t know what kind of bad luck the Lin family has suffered.”

The old servant at the door of Lin Mansion was pushed away, and Wang Zuye, Hu Hai, Fang Ke and others strode into Lin Mansion.

As Lin Zhennan fell ill, the Lin family fell into chaos. Fortunately, his wife Wang stepped forward at the critical moment and temporarily stabilized the people in the family.

Wang, who was busy preparing medicine for Lin Zhennan to recuperate, suddenly saw her personal maid running over and saying, "Madam, something bad has happened. Someone broke into the house and shouted to see the master!"

Wang frowned and said, "Do you know who he is?"

The maid said: "It looks like he must be the businessman who asked our Fuwei Escort Agency to escort him."

Mrs. Wang was not too panicked. She took a deep breath and said, "Go and invite people to the living room."

The maid quickly responded and ran out.

Mrs. Wang sighed softly, poured out the cooked concoction and walked into the bedroom with it. She saw Lin Zhennan lying on the bed with a sick face, and the whole person seemed to be much older.

Ordinarily, Lin Zhennan would not get sick as he has been practicing internal martial arts all year round, and Lin Zhennan is not too old, that is, about forty years old. However, looking at Lin Zhennan's appearance of not being able to afford the illness, he still looks pretty good.

It's really scary.

According to the doctor who treated Lin Zhennan, Lin Zhennan's illness was mainly a heart disease, and he also contracted wind and cold. When his heart was so angry, even a strong man couldn't bear it, and he couldn't afford it.

Carefully lifting Lin Zhennan up, Wang gently fed Lin Zhennan the concoction to drink. Looking at Lin Zhennan's pale face and thinking of the merchants who came to claim compensation, Wang felt sad and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Sir, how much are we still short of?"

As for the money, why not... why don't I write a letter and ask my father and brother to help us, maybe they can temporarily lend us some money to tide us over."

Lin Zhennan shook his head slightly when he heard this, grabbed Mr. Wang's hand and said with determination in his eyes: "No need to trouble my father-in-law, my uncle, it's not easy for their family to have a big business."

Seeing the sadness on Wang's face, Lin Zhennan was moved and asked, "Has someone come to claim compensation again?"

Lin Zhennan had never let Mrs. Wang worry about these things. Today, Mrs. Lin suddenly mentioned that she wanted to ask her family for help. Lin Zhennan, who had always been shrewd, could not imagine what had happened.

Looking at Lin Zhennan's expression, Wang knew that she couldn't hide it from Lin Zhennan, and sighed: "A few people came to the door just now. Although I don't know which ones they are, I guess they came because the goods were robbed."

Lin Zhennan frowned, struggled hard to get up and said: "Help me up, I will go see them, I hope they can give our Lin family a few days of grace for the sake of our old friendship over many years of cooperation."

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Wang quickly held Lin Zhennan down and said: "The doctor said, you are so anxious that your body will collapse at a moment's notice. The most important thing right now is not to worry about anything. Otherwise, your disease will not be cured by taking medicine alone."

It won’t be good.”

After saying this, Mrs. Wang stood up and said, "I'll just go and deal with that person outside!"

Then he ordered the two maids: "You two watch out for the master and don't let him get out of bed."

In the living room, Wang Zuye, Hu Hai, Fang Ke and others looked impatiently and said to a servant: "Where's Lin Zhennan, go and ask him to come see us, even if you hide, you can't solve the problem.

"

Fang Ke patted the table and said, "Yes, tell him that if he doesn't come to see us again and give us an explanation, don't blame us for not remembering our old feelings and sue him!"

The servant was so frightened that he didn't dare to answer. He was yelled at by several people and had no choice but to go find Lin Zhennan and his wife.

As soon as he left the door, he saw his wife walking over, accompanied by the maid, and couldn't help but salute: "Madam, why are you here? Master..."
