Chapter 328 A loud slap in the face

Chapter 328 A loud slap in the face
According to the old gentleman, the Milt family has settled in the town for decades. They live in the family mansion on the eastern outskirts of the town. They are said to be very knowledgeable and a reclusive scholar.

When old Milt was still alive, he would occasionally go to town for a stroll. After old Milt passed away, only the brother and sister were left in the mansion, living in the mansion with an old housekeeper and several servants who had been with them for many years. He almost never goes out, only his butler and servants occasionally appear in town.

But the two sides are not completely in contact. In recent years, in addition to the sister of the brother and sister, Ms. Milt, who has come forward to help solve every time rinderpest occurs, the residents of the town will also ask the elder of the Milt family if they have any difficult problems. Ask the housekeeper for advice, and soon the old housekeeper will relay the answer.

The two sides have always maintained this special alienated relationship, however...

"Gentlemen! Let's go to the door together today. If they dare not help again, we will fight them."

"Yes, fight them desperately! We have no choice anyway, we have to die together."

"It was the Milt family's refusal to come forward that caused so many cows to die in the town. It's all their fault."

"Yes, it's all their fault. We have to give them an explanation today and let them accompany us in the loss!"

Damn it, I never owe you anything. When you encounter trouble, don't you blame your own greed, don't blame the bank for forcing you to pay, but blame the people who have helped you countless times for not helping you anymore?
Officer Natalie's face was gloomy with anger, and she clenched her fists. She had no sympathy for this group of victims, and just wanted to rush up and yell at them as a police officer to teach them a lesson.

I can walk freely among hundreds of monsters, why am I afraid of ordinary people like you? However, before his body moved, his hand was held by Lynch. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Lynch raising his chin towards the crowd.

"Maybe there's a way to resolve it peacefully, at least without hurting anyone."

"You have worked hard with us for so many years!"

“Treat our livestock!”

The crowd quickly started to move. Hundreds of people were noisy and gathered towards the eastern suburbs of the town. The two left the carriage at the door of the town's only tavern and followed on foot.

The leading farmers couldn't wait to rush to the gate and were about to break it down, but before they could get close, the gate opened. An old housekeeper who looked to be in his sixties rushed out with a shotgun, followed by others. Four sturdy servants, each holding a shotgun in his hand.

"Our livestock died, and you are responsible!"

At this time, more and more people gathered in the center of the town, and soon it was over a hundred. Almost all the young and middle-aged people in the town were gathered together, each wielding tools such as sticks and pitchforks, and venting their despair and anger aggressively. .

"I'm also angry when I see it, but let's take a look at the situation first. Don't be impatient."

"No, we can't let them continue to cause trouble." Officer Natalie, who had been following behind, couldn't bear it anymore. "They must be stopped, otherwise there will be a lot of casualties once they break out."

"What are you going to do?"

The angry crowd walked very quickly, and in more than half an hour they had reached the outskirts of the town. A three-story mansion appeared in front of them.

The old housekeeper fired a shot into the air to calm the restless crowd, and then five people blocked the door and confronted hundreds of townspeople.

"Do you want to kill them? This situation is difficult to resolve without blood."

"Let your master come out."

Several gentlemen are the management of the town and are trying to calm down the chaos. Even the only three men in blue uniforms in the town have come to help dissuade them. However, at this time, the townspeople are like a group of gamblers who have lost their sights. They had lost their minds a long time ago, everyone's eyes were red, and they couldn't listen to anything. Fortunately, a few managers usually had a good reputation, otherwise they might have been beaten to death on the spot.

Yes, the one opposite is not a monster after all. The tense hand quickly softened, and the police officer snorted angrily. But years of experience told her that Lynch might be right, that this group of people might have gone crazy when they got together.

Unlike most mansions in cities of this era, the Milt family's mansion was surrounded by towering walls with sharp iron bars and iron mesh, and only a thick iron door connected to the outside world.

"Stand back, my lady doesn't want to see you rude thugs!"

boom.

"Shock the farmer, then directly hurt them and suppress them forcefully." The police officer pursed her lips and hesitated a little, "This is the only way."

The five people aimed their guns, but did not dare to actually fire. Although the farmers kept approaching with sticks, they were also afraid of firearms and did not dare to attack. The two sides maintained a face-to-face distance and fell into a brief stalemate.

"Impossible, these people are crazy, and there is no way peaceful methods can calm them down."

"How about a bet?" Looking at the increasingly fierce atmosphere, Lin Qi said calmly, "It's still the same, if you win, all the old debts will be cancelled. If I win, hey, that's the eighth condition. ...Ouch."

The police officer retracted her leg that was stepping on Lynch's toes, looked at his grimace, and glared at him with slightly red cheeks.

"Hurry up and work, stop talking nonsense, something is going to happen."

This woman is so violent, how will she live in the future?

The farmers kept shouting and swearing with red eyes, becoming more and more irritable. Those in the back row slowly pushed forward, pushing the front row forward. The distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and even the sticks could hit each other's head directly. superior.

boom.

A stick was swept across the old housekeeper's forehead, and the blood flowed down his cheek along with his pale hair. There was silence on the field, and then the townspeople who saw the blood became more and more excited and completely lost control. The next moment they were about to swarm up and kill the five people in the way under the threat of firearms.

Right now, what I want is for your emotions to explode.

Lin Qi took a deep breath and then roared.

"Enough!" The phantom sound ability was turned on, and the volume was adjusted to the maximum. It was like a thunderous explosion. Everyone on both sides was shocked, stopped all movements, and looked at the source of the sound in surprise.

Click, click.

With the sound of the cane hitting the ground, Lynch was followed by the police officer. The two slowly walked out from behind, walked into everyone's field of vision, and walked towards the middle of the two parties.

The two sides were still close to each other when they were stunned, but Lynch walked directly over and stopped when he was about to come into physical contact with the person in the middle. He raised his cane expressionlessly and knocked on a farmer. chest.

"You, let."

The emotions that had just exploded were interrupted by thunder, and it would take some time to accumulate them again. The frustrated farmer subconsciously took two steps back and looked at Lin Qi blankly.

Lin Qi stood in the middle position vacated by both parties, turned to face the crowd, straightened his hat, and said with a haughty look:
"I am the Rhine City Government, the House of Commons representing the citizens, and the staff of the noble Speaker Grant. I came to your shabby town today because I heard that rinderpest has occurred here. On behalf of the noble Lord Grant, I come to talk to you. The poor man negotiates to buy your dead and sick cows at two-thirds of the market price.”

The root of all contradictions lies in the excitement of losing money. Lynch hit the point with one sentence, shaking everyone out of their frenzy and gradually regaining their ability to think.

Speaker Grant, that's a big shot in the city, I've heard of it. What is he going to do? Buy our sick cows? God, although I will lose a lot of money, at least I can repay the loan and my family’s breeding farm can be saved!

Suddenly a life-saving straw appeared. The townspeople couldn't care less about the Milt family. They were all very excited. However, the leaders were quite knowledgeable, especially the one who just broke the old housekeeper's head with a stick. He was a little suspicious. Asked: "What are you doing to buy the cows that died of illness? Hey, you don't want to use the cows that died of illness to sell as good cattle. This is illegal."

Lin Qi's face darkened and he raised his fingers at him. The farmer no doubt had his friends coming over.

So, Lynch rounded his arms, forehand and backhand, and slapped him on the face twice, spinning him around and throwing him to the ground.

"Is it your turn to ask questions? Do you care what we buy for? If you want to sell things, just keep your mouth shut. If you ask such nonsense again, I will turn around and leave. Do you hear me? Huh? You want to Don’t want to sell? "

"Think about it, Master, please don't leave. I won't ask you anything."

This is right, this is the attitude of the gentlemen in the city. The farmer's face was swollen after being beaten, but he laughed and nodded like a steam piston.

"Just sell it if you want, huh, let me tell you, I don't want to stay in this shabby town for a minute longer. Go back to the town right now, order me the best wine in the tavern, and wait patiently. Wait for me to settle accounts with you in detail. If you are not ready when I arrive, I will leave immediately. "

"Master...you, do you really want to buy it?"

Some people in the crowd couldn't help but asked the question that everyone was most concerned about. Lin Qi glared at him sideways and crossed his fingers again.

"Come here and I'll tell you."

The other party immediately covered his face and took two steps back.

"You're not stupid, huh, did I say I want to buy it? Can't you understand human language? Don't you know what negotiation is? If the negotiation is good, of course I will buy it. If the negotiation is not successful, what will I buy? Where do you get so much? Problems, get out of here now."

The crowd, which had been so agitated just now, immediately dispersed. As they ran, some people realized, no, aren't we here to kill people and set fires?
Forget it, business is still important, as long as someone buys it, is it illegal? hehe.

Lin Qi shook his hand. His hand hurt from the two slaps, but he felt relieved.

Poor people must be hateful, a bunch of villains.

Shaking his head at the running crowd, Lynch turned around and winked at the police officer, making an eight sign.

You guy actually did it.

The police officer was a little surprised and admired, but she still blushed and waved her fist, and said angrily: "The question is how do you plan to end it? Where did you get the money to buy so many dead cows?"

"Huh? Speaker Grant wants to buy a dead cow. What does it have to do with me, Lu...Lynch?"

Lin Qi spread his hands, smiled and added:

"Stabilize them first and buy us time to understand the situation. Although those people are hateful, they are also victims in the end. It's enough to teach them a lesson. Let's try first to see if we can solve the problem. If it doesn't work, there are still options."

"Yes." The police officer nodded slightly, looking at Lynch secretly with a softer look.

"Your Excellencies." The voice of the old housekeeper came from behind, "Thank you both for solving the trouble for the Milt family. If you don't mind, please come in and rest for a while. My lady would like to thank you both in person."

Of course I don't mind.

Officers Lynch and Natalie looked at each other and smiled, then followed each other into the iron gate. However, as soon as they entered the door, they turned around unintentionally, causing Lynch to freeze in place.

Inside the door, Lynch saw a familiar pattern.

Round spheres like eyes are stacked on top of each other, like a strange pattern composed of countless eyeballs.

Lynch had seen this sign outside the Knowledge Library.

Lord of billions of radiance.

The evil god who asked the neighbors to come forward to stop Lynch from prying.
