Wang Yujin shook his head at her, then glanced at the person beside him and asked the question that the person beside him was most concerned about: "Has Zhao Shu been found?"

Hearing this, You Yurong said indignantly: "What are you looking for! It's already this time, and she's still running around. I told you, don't call her this time, don't call her! Lin Xun insisted on calling her, and now we're missing, and we're still having to look for her everywhere!"

At this point, You Yurong seemed to have not vented her dissatisfaction yet, and continued: "Zhao Shu is unlucky in the first place, and you always bring her along! Now, we are all unlucky with her!"

You Yurong didn't want to stop complaining about Zhao Shu, and opened her mouth to continue criticizing her, but the next moment she saw Xie Jin standing at the door, staring at her expressionlessly, and she shuddered for no reason.

"Bang!" The door was kicked hard from outside. Lin Xun, who had gone to look for Zhao Shu, appeared at the door and looked at You Yurong coldly: "What are you talking about! Tell me about it!"

You Yurong looked at him hesitantly: "No, nothing."

As soon as he finished speaking, screams of surprise rang out from outside the bamboo forest: "Fire! Fire!"

Everyone looked outside and saw a fire in the distance.

Everyone was so shocked that they didn't know what to do. You Yurong stared at the fire and murmured, "I told you, I told you, Zhao Shu is unlucky. Being with her will definitely bring bad luck. Look, bad luck is coming."

"Shut up!" Lin Xun turned his head and looked at her angrily.

You Yurong was startled and looked at Lin Xun with a red face.

Wang Yujin walked to You Yurong, took her hand and shook his head at her.

You Yurong glanced at Lin Xun's back unwillingly, but lowered her head and stopped talking.

At this time, Xie Jin said in a deep voice: "Let's not stay here, let's get out first!"

Xie Jin took the lead and walked out, but when everyone walked out of the house, the sound of weapons mixed with curses came from the fire.

Xie Jin and Lin Xun in front paused, then took big strides towards the fire at the same time.

Li Yanrong took a step forward and held Lin Xun's hand tightly: "Where are you going!"

"You walk along the area without fire, I will come to find you later!" Lin Xun looked at him and said so.

Li Yanrong guessed what he was going to do and looked at him in disbelief: "Are you crazy!?"

Even Wang Mo, who was usually taciturn, looked at Lin Xun and said, "This is inappropriate."

Xu Ping stood up and said, "Lin Xun, don't be silly. There are guards over there, nothing serious will happen!"

Cao Fu and Yan Li: “That’s right, that’s right!”

Lin Xun looked at them and smiled nonchalantly: "This is my bamboo forest. I must go and see how that reckless bastard dared to destroy my bamboo forest!"

After saying that, he didn't give them any chance to speak and followed Xie Jin away.

Li Yanrong and the others looked at the two people running towards the fire, and then ran non-stop towards a place where there was no fire.

At the entrance of the bamboo forest, the guards brought by Xie Jin were constantly fighting with a group of people in armor.

Xie Jin glanced at the corpse-strewn ground, then half-knelt beside a dying guard and asked, "Have you seen Miss Zhao?"

The guard raised his middle finger with difficulty, pointed at a man in armor and said, "He, they," but before he could finish his words, the man died and lay motionless on the ground.

Xie Jin picked up the sword from the guard's hand and rushed into the fire.

Seeing this, Lin Xun also followed his example, found a sword on the ground, and rushed into the fire.

The two young men stood out in the crowd. When one of the men in armor saw them, he immediately shouted to the team, "Xie Jingrong's son and Lin Shuo's son are here! Xie Jingrong and Lin Shuo's son are here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the group of people in armor gradually surrounded Xie Jin and the others.

Xie Jin's eyes flashed, and then he threw himself into the fight in front of him.

Xie Jin and his companions discovered that since the group of people in armor knew their identities, they were avoiding their vital points during the fight with them and did not seem to want to kill them.

Xie Jin saw this, so when the opponent was dodging, his moves were deadly and he showed no mercy!
Lin Xun soon saw through Xie Jin's fighting style, so in the following time, the two teenagers gradually gained the upper hand despite being outnumbered.

In the end, looking at the two young men in the crowd who were blood-thirsty, the man in armor didn't dare to go forward and fight with them, but surrounded them at a certain distance.

Feeling the change in the situation, Xie Jin and the others breathlessly stuck their swords into the ground, gripping the hilts tightly and looking fiercely at the people around them.

A man in armor walked out from the crowd, and Xie Jin recognized him at a glance.

Xie Jin looked at the visitor with a smile that didn't reach his eyes: "General Ouyang, how come you have the time to come to such a shabby place as "Hongtang"?"

"Thank you, nephew. Your uncle came all the way here to see you." Ouyang Yonglang laughed and pointed at Lin Xun: "And him."

Xie Jin stared at him with his dark eyes: "Is Zhao Shu with you?"

Ouyang Yong looked at him approvingly: "Thank you, nephew, for being smart. The eldest daughter of the Zhao family is indeed with me, but she has a stubborn temper. When I invited her out to chat, she refused to come. So I used some tricks to make her come out obediently."

Seeing Xie Jin's murderous eyes, Ouyang Yong smiled at him soothingly, "Don't worry, your uncle has always been a kind and gentle person to girls."

Xie Jin looked at him coldly: "General Ouyang, please respect yourself. My father is the only son in the family!" Lin Xun also sneered: "You old man, you are shameless! Whose uncle are you! You are worthy of being Xie Jin's uncle! Bah! Shameless!"

Ouyang Yong's expression did not change, but the smile in his eyes turned a little colder: "I won't beat around the bush with you. I came here this time to ask you two gentlemen to do me a small favor."

Xie Jin: "I am a nobody and my words are shallow, I can do nothing!"

Lin Xun: "I'm holding back a fart!"

Ouyang Yong's face darkened instantly. He looked at Xie Jin and smiled sinisterly, "Xie Jin, your lover is still in my hands. Think it over before you answer."

"Right now I am still entertaining your little lover with delicious food and drinks, but I won't be able to say the same thing later."

Xie Jin clenched his hands tightly at his sides and looked at him and asked, "Where is the person?"

Ouyang Yong smiled and said, "You will meet him eventually. You just need to tell me whether you will help me with this small favor or not."

Xie Jin looked at him solemnly: "Help!"

Ouyang Yong laughed, "Frank! I like chatting with young men like you, you are straightforward and bold! Unlike those pedantic officials in the court, who only know how to find ways to criticize you all day long. I am so annoyed!"

Lin Xun frowned impatiently: "Old man, what do you want us to do for you!?"

Ouyang Yong looked at Lin Xun and smiled, then he waved his hand and his subordinates behind him walked straight towards Xie Jin and the others.

Xie Jin threw the sword in his hand to the ground. Lin Xun looked at him in surprise: "Xie Jin, what are you doing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone from Ouyang Yong's side kicked Xie Jin on the calf, and Xie Jin fell straight to his knees on the ground.

Lin Xun looked in shock as Xie Jin's head was pressed to the ground by Ouyang Yong's men. Seeing the deep look in Xie Jin's eyes, he finally reacted. Then he imitated him and dropped the sword in his hand. The people behind him kicked his calf hard and pressed his head to the ground.

Ouyang Yong watched all this with a smile: "My two nephews, thank you for your hard work and for enduring this."

As soon as the voice fell, the people behind Xie Jin and the others tied their hands behind their backs with hemp ropes. The force was so strong that Lin Xun cried out in pain: "Gently, gently!"

At this time, Ouyang Yong came over and stepped hard on his back: "Mr. Lin, you are a little weak!"

Lin Xun pressed his face against the ground. Just as he was about to scold the person on him, he saw Xie Jin shaking his head at him.

Lin Xun held his breath, closed his eyes tightly, and said silently in his heart: Zhao Shu, you owe me a big favor this time. If you don’t treat me better in the future, you will be unworthy of my sacrifice today!
After Ouyang Yong had vented enough, he rubbed Lin Xun's body with the soles of his shoes, and then asked someone to throw the two of them into the carriage that had been prepared.

The carriage was locked from the outside. Lin Xun looked at Xie Jin who was calm and composed and asked, "Is there any trouble in the imperial city?"

Xie Jin opened his eyes and looked at him with a look that said, "You finally understand."

Lin Xun choked up, then looked at him confidently and said, "Why didn't you tell me just now!"

Xie Jin glanced at him with complicated eyes, then closed his eyes, ignoring the sight and feeling relieved.

It's rare to find someone this stupid!

Lin Xun: "." Why did he feel that Xie Jin looked down on him just now? !
The carriage traveled smoothly all the way to the imperial city, and Xie Jin and the others were pulled out of the carriage.

Lin Xun was originally a pampered young man. He had been humiliated so much that night that he could no longer bear it. He kicked the person who pulled him and said, "Bitch! You think you can touch me?"

Ouyang Yong glanced at him calmly and said, "Just don't beat him to death."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had just been kicked over by Lin Xun and the people around him surrounded Lin Xun. Lin Xun turned his head to look at Xie Jin on the side. Xie Jin just glanced at him and then turned his eyes away indifferently, acting as if it had nothing to do with him.

The man who was just knocked over by Lin Xun kicked Lin Xun on the back: "Aren't you crazy? Keep going crazy!"

Lin Xun was kicked to the ground, then he closed his eyes resigned to his fate. Those people punched and kicked him with all their might, as if they wanted to vent all their jealousy and resentment towards these young masters.

Lin Xun is usually such a delicate person, but at this moment he gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Seeing Lin Xun being beaten half to death, Ouyang Yong finally called for a stop: "Enough, if you continue to beat him, his father will be in trouble."

Xie Jin glanced indifferently at the person lying motionless on the ground. Ouyang Yong laughed at the scene and said, "Xie nephew, you are indifferent to seeing your friend being beaten like this?"

He patted Xie Jin on the shoulder and said, "Uncle was right about me, so ruthless!"
