Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 551 Lin Chong: I believe he won't betray me [2 updates]

What the hell?

Xiao Fan was taken aback. Looking down, he saw a shiny, smooth chicken bone in the snow.

What a fine jade!

Xiao Fan subconsciously picked up the chicken bone; he had never seen such an exquisite treasure before!

Xiao Fan didn't think of it as chicken bones; he simply assumed it was a work of art carved from a piece of fine mutton fat jade.

Honestly, who would carry a chicken bone around with them?
Xiao Fan immediately started dreaming that if he took this jade-carved chicken bone to a pawnshop, he could get a lot of money.

Do not!
You can earn more by sending it to auction!

I won't sell it if it doesn't fetch a thousand taels of silver; I'll keep it as a family heirloom for my son!
Just as Xiao Fan was daydreaming, he suddenly heard the sound of galloping hooves approaching from afar:
"Quack! Quack!"

"Who?"

The greedy Xiao Fan subconsciously looked up, only to find that it was Lin Chong who had returned!
Does he dare to come back?
Xiao Fan was completely bewildered, utterly unaware that Lin Chong was coming for him!

So when the cold gun blade pierced his neck, Xiao Fan's mind was filled with nothing but "Holy crap!"

No, why?

As his mount brushed past the servant, Lin Chong bent down and snatched the chicken bone from the servant's hand.

"Do not--"

Xiao Fan was filled with remorse at this moment. The chicken bones were indeed a treasure; he should have picked them up and run away immediately...

Overwhelmed with remorse, Xiao Fan collapsed in a pool of blood, while Lin Chong circled around and rushed toward the city gate again.

Lin Chong carefully tucked the chicken bones into his pocket, as if they were precious treasures, and began to regret his impulsiveness.

They were almost at the city gate when Lin Chong instinctively reached his waist and discovered that the chicken bone was missing.

Without a second thought, Lin Chong turned his horse around and rode back. Now that he thinks about it, didn't he just end up hurting the two boys?

He went back to collect chicken bones, so he had to rely on those two boys to break through the city gate. Could those two boys do it?

Lin Chong, worried about the two boys, spurred his horse and rushed towards the city gate, only to witness a massacre!

One boy wielded a silver spear, and another boy wielded a tiger-headed crescent shovel, slaughtering the Jin soldiers at the city gate until their blood flowed like a river!
Hundreds of corpses lay scattered around the city gate, a scene resembling a living hell!
Luxurious!

Lin Chong, who considered himself a man of unparalleled bravery, couldn't help but cheer for the two young men!

He remembered that there was a group of white-robed, silver-spear-wielding youths around Cai Fu back then.

However, because there were so many young men in white robes and wielding silver spears, Lin Chong couldn't tell them apart; he only knew that they were all Cai Fu's sons and nephews.

So here's the question: who is the yellow-browed, red-bearded boy who calls himself Uncle Lin?
Now is not the time for a major investigation. Lin Chong stepped forward and joined the two boys as they charged out of the city gate together.

When the other Jin generals led their large armies to attack, Lin Chong and the two boys had already disappeared...

……

In a small village outside the city, Lin Chong led the two boys to an abandoned old house.

From the outside, the old house looks very dilapidated, with weeds growing all over the roof, but the bedroom is very well tidied up.

Although it was very basic, at least the bed was sleptable.

Lin Chong opened the bedside table; inside the drawer were prepared medicines. He skillfully treated his wounds.

The white-robed youth with the silver spear and the yellow-browed, red-bearded youth simultaneously pulled out a large pill and gave it to Lin Chong:

"Uncle-Master (Uncle Lin), please take this Tiger Penis Rejuvenating Pill!"

After they finished speaking, the two boys looked at each other again, sparks flying between them, both unwilling to admit defeat!
Lin Chong asked with a smile, "Who are you? Why have you come to save me? And why do you all possess the Tiger Penis Great Rejuvenating Pill, a secret recipe exclusively made by Physician An?"

The white-robed youth with a silver spear: "My nephew Zhang Kui is a disciple of 'Jade Kirin' Lu Junyi!"

"Master received news in Qingzhou that Uncle had killed seven or eight marshals in Huanglong Prefecture, so he ordered his nephew to come and meet Uncle!"

It turned out that Shi Qian's intelligence camp had already extended its reach to Huanglong Prefecture. Lin Chong was causing chaos in Huanglong Prefecture, and naturally, the intelligence camp relayed the news back to Qingzhou.

The yellow-browed, red-bearded youth said, "My nephew, Dong Xian, is a disciple of 'Flowery Monk' Lu Zhishen!"

"My master was worried about Uncle Lin's safety in Xijing, so he sent his nephew to meet him!"

Lu Zhishen was unaware of the news; he was simply worried about Lin Chong.

Lin Chong felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this, and inexplicably recalled the truth he had come to understand:
People must rely on themselves!
Lin Chong originally thought he could rely on himself in everything, and that he could only rely on himself.

His unparalleled bravery solved most problems, but there were still some he couldn't solve.

He encountered a problem he couldn't solve today, but the appearance of Zhang Kui and Dong Xian shattered his reasoning.

It turns out he had someone to rely on; he could rely on Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Cai Fu…

"Thank you so much!"

With tears in his eyes, Lin Chong accepted the two Tiger Whip Pills, a token of Lu Junyi and Lu Zhishen's goodwill.

Lin Chong ate one, and hid the other one close to his body, placing it together with the chicken bones.

Then he got up and walked to the large cabinet at the foot of the bed, opened the double doors, and inside were nine tanned human heads!
The nine heads, each with a different shape, all wore expressions of terror, and were neatly arranged in three rows...

Zhang Kui and Dong Xian were startled; they could tell from their faces that eight out of the nine heads belonged to fierce generals!

The remaining one wasn't a fierce general; he had fair skin and delicate features, clearly a member of the Jin royal family!

Lin Chong placed He Heita's head in the cabinet:
“Those who are confused will come here to deal with the heads.”

"We'll rest here for a while, and once the others have dealt with the severed head, we can return to the Central Plains..."

Lin Chong's voice trembled as he spoke the last few words; he could finally return with his head held high!
Bring back the heads of ten named Jin generals to the Central Plains to give Lu Zhishen an explanation!
If Lu Zhishen were willing to forgive his past, he might even become brothers with Lu Zhishen!

"Uncle-Master, perhaps we shouldn't wait for him?"

Zhang Kui advised Lin Chong: "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts!"

"What if he betrays us..."

"Yes, Uncle Lin!"

Dong Xian and Zhang Kui had the same idea:

"We've got enough heads, let's hurry up and go!"

“If the human heads are not processed, it will cause a lot of trouble on the way, and they may even rot by the time they get back to the Central Plains.”

Lin Chong shook his head: "I relied on Hu Ermi for many things in the Jin Kingdom, and I believe he will not betray me."

Zhang Kui and Dong Xian said in unison, "What if..."

Lin Chong waved his hand: "If anything happens, I'll accept it!"

Originally, Lin Chong only trusted himself, but now he has opened his heart and begun to try to accept others.

He was willing to trust Hurmi, and if Hurmi really betrayed him, it would only mean that he had trusted the wrong person.

Seeing Lin Chong's determination, Zhang Kui and Dong Xian could no longer persuade him, so they accompanied Lin Chong to talk about the affairs of the Central Plains.

Lin Chong then realized that during the months he had been in Huanglong Prefecture, Cai Fu had actually been annexing the State of Chu.

When Zhang Kui and Dong Xian headed north, Cai Fu had already annexed half of the State of Chu...

Good guy!
Lin Chong felt a renewed sense of urgency; he still longed to return to the State of Qi and make a name for himself!

I didn't expect Cai Fu to act so quickly. If he doesn't go back soon, Cai Fu will have already unified the world by now...

Just then, voices could be heard outside.
