1990, Reborn as a Beachcomber, From Rascal to Brilliant Guy

"Brother Liang, why are you running so fast?"

As soon as Lin Shuisheng crossed the back of the mountain pass, he ran into Lin Jianliang, the older brother of his childhood friend Lin Jiancheng. Seeing that the other man was out of breath, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"Ah Shui, you...you'd better go check it out! Your dad and your brother are fighting with Ah Wen and his brothers!"

Lin Jianliang grabbed Lin Shuisheng's arm and spoke, panting slightly.

Upon hearing his words, Lin Shuisheng's expression changed drastically, and without saying another word, he ran wildly down the mountain.

Lin Jianliang glanced at Lin Shuisheng's back, braced himself on his knees and took a few deep breaths. Then, not daring to waste any more time, he hurriedly ran towards the village.

As everyone knows, the local people are quite fierce. If they don't fight, it's fine, but once a fight breaks out, it becomes a serious matter. We must invite the elders of the clan as soon as possible to prevent the situation from escalating.

Soon, Lin Shuisheng ran along the mountain road to Dongjiao Bay. Before his feet even touched the sand, he could see a large group of people gathered on the mudflats to the northwest and could vaguely hear a familiar cry.

This made his heart tighten, and he quickened his pace.

"Pu Muzi, you're such a grown man, how dare you hit a seven or eight-year-old kid? Do you think I'm dead?"

"Whoever yells at me to hit my son first, it's a miracle he wasn't killed."

"How dare you say that? Wasn't it your son who hit my niece first!"

"He stole my son's blue crab, he deserves to be beaten."

"Don't talk nonsense. This beach belongs to the public. Whoever sees it first gets to keep it. My niece clearly saw it first, and your son is trying to take it from her. Have you no shame?"

"You say you'll see it first, but who's going to vouch for that?"

Lin Xuewen hid between his second brother Lin Xuewu and third brother Lin Xuefu, his chin held high, his face full of contempt.

Seeing Lin Xuewen's arrogance, Lin Chaosheng was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead. He flung Li Chanjuan's hand away, grabbed the oyster cleaver, and charged forward.

Everyone was immediately startled upon seeing this.

Before they could rush over to break up the fight, a figure suddenly emerged from the crowd, getting ahead of Lin Chaosheng, and launched a flying kick at Lin Xuewen.

"Bang!"

The next moment, Lin Xuewen, who still had an arrogant expression on his face, was kicked and rolled three meters away, lying on the mudflats clutching his stomach and curling up in a ball.

In an instant, everyone was stunned, staring blankly at Lin Xuewen, who was covered in mud and water.

"Big brother!"

After a while, Lin Xuewu and Lin Xuefu realized what was happening and rushed over to help Lin Xuewen up.

"Ahem!"

Lin Xuewen choked on the muddy water and staggered to his feet, his face alternating between pale and flushed. His eyes were fixed on Lin Shuisheng, who had suddenly appeared not far away, his teeth clenched in anger.

"Lin Shuisheng!"

"Stop talking nonsense. One-on-one or group fight, it's up to you. But until things are settled, none of you are leaving."

Lin Shuisheng raised the short-handled harpoon in his hand and looked directly at Lin Xuewen and his two brothers, his face filled with a chilling aura.

He was given a second chance at life, not to let his children or his family be bullied.

Anyone who dares to bully his children or his family will have to pay a bloody price.

"You idiot, what are you bragging about? You just got lucky and caught a few big yellow croakers, right? Who are you trying to scare with that fork? Come at me if you dare!"

Lin Xuefu blushed, pointed at Lin Shuisheng, and shouted loudly, his eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.

Why is it that Lin Shuisheng, a mere braggart, can catch several large yellow croakers just by casually digging into a puddle?

The three brothers work themselves to the bone, but at most they earn two or three hundred a month.

What's even more infuriating is that Lin Shuisheng, who is two years younger than him and has only finished junior high school, has already married a particularly virtuous and beautiful wife.

He went on blind dates for four or five years, but still couldn't find a wife.

On what grounds?

"Ah Shui, you stole my nephew's crabs before you left, and now you've hit him. Do you really think this Dongjiao Bay is your private property?"

Lin Xuewu stared at the harpoon in Lin Shuisheng's hand, his expression somewhat solemn.

It wasn't that he didn't want to fight Lin Shuisheng, nor was it that he was a particularly reasonable person.

Just from that flying kick and the way his older brother Lin Xuewen was trembling with pain, he could tell that Lin Shuisheng wasn't joking with them.

If a fight really breaks out, people could die at any moment.

He has to be more careful.

In other words, he was genuinely intimidated by the demeanor Lin Shuisheng was displaying.

"Second brother, why are you wasting your breath talking to him? If you want to fight, then fight! Who's afraid of who?"

When Lin Xuefu saw that his second brother was not taking action but instead trying to reason with Lin Shuisheng, he immediately became angry.

Everyone's watching now!

If they are so afraid of Lin Shuisheng, how can they ever hold their heads high again?

"Then why don't you go and fight him one-on-one?"

Lin Xuewu glared at Lin Xuefu and retorted in a low voice.

Lin Xuefu glanced at Lin Shuisheng, who remained calm, then at Lin Chaosheng, Lin Haisheng, and Lin Yaoguang standing beside him. He hesitated for a moment, then remained silent.

He wasn't afraid; he just felt that his eldest brother, Lin Xuewen, had already been kicked until he was completely exhausted, and that he and his second brother, Lin Xuewu, were really no match for the four of them, including Lin Shuisheng.

"Hey! Everyone, come and be the judge! That slut of theirs stole my son's crab, and now he's even hitting him! It's absolutely outrageous!"

At this moment, seeing that her family was at a disadvantage, Zhang Chunmei sat down on the ground, slapped her hands on the ground, and cried out loudly.

Upon seeing this, everyone began to offer their advice.

"Ah Shui, don't be so impulsive. Let's talk things out."

"Exactly! We're all brothers from the same ancestor, can't we discuss things properly?"

"Ah Shui, you started hitting someone before you even understood what was going on. That's wrong of you."

"..."

Seeing that everyone was subtly siding with Lin Xuewen, Lin Shuisheng frowned, put down his fork, and asked Zhang Chunmei:

"Sister Chunmei, you said my son stole your son's crab. Did anyone see it?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Zhang Chunmei. Zhang Chunmei's expression changed slightly, and then she stiffened her neck and shouted:

"I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be wrong?"

"You're talking nonsense! I clearly saw your Guangzai steal my sister's crab and push her over."

Before Lin Shuisheng could reply, Lin Mingtao ran out, pointing an indignant finger at Zhang Chunmei's son, Lin Jiguang.

Four-year-old Lin Jiguang lowered his head, gripped his mother's clothes tightly, and trembled slightly.

"Dad, I didn't steal the crab, it was Ah Guang who stole it from me."

Lin Chunjiao ran out from behind her aunt Su Meilan, hugged Lin Shuisheng's leg tightly, and looked up with her face covered in tears.
