Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Lin Ze continued to move forward and came to a big city. The city seemed prosperous, but in fact, there were undercurrents. He heard that there was a mysterious force secretly manipulating business, raising prices, and making people's lives miserable.

Lin Ze stood on the busy street, secretly vowing to find out the black hand behind the scenes. He walked through the streets and alleys with firm steps, not missing any clues.

By chance, Lin Ze met a clever boy named Ah Fu. Although the boy was young, he was smart and well-informed. When Lin Ze asked him about the mysterious force, Ah Fu lowered his voice and said, "Sir, you don't know! This force is very hidden. Every transaction they make is completed through middlemen. These middlemen are elusive and difficult to track down!"

After getting this important clue, Lin Ze began to follow the clues and traced it. After some hard work, he finally found that the middleman's trail led to a seemingly ordinary teahouse in the city. So Lin Ze decided to disguise himself as an ordinary tea drinker and sneak into the teahouse to find out what was going on.

Walking into the teahouse, Lin Ze quietly found a corner to sit down, slowly sipping the fragrant tea while secretly observing the movements around him with his peripheral vision. Hard work pays off, and before long, he noticed that some suspicious people frequently entered and exited a dark room at the back of the teahouse.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Lin Ze stood up without hesitation and walked towards the dark room. However, just as he was about to approach, a group of ferocious thugs suddenly rushed out from all sides and surrounded him. Facing this group of aggressive enemies, Lin Ze did not show any fear on his face. He flashed and shuttled freely among the crowd like a ghost. After a crackling sound, the thugs fell to the ground one after another.

Lin Ze quickly rushed into the dark room, and the scene in front of him shocked him. He saw a figure in a black robe with his back to him, concentrating on planning his next money-making scheme. Hearing someone breaking in, the black-robed man slowly turned around, revealing a ferocious face. He was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and laughed: "Hahahaha... I didn't expect that someone would dare to come and cause trouble for me? Boy, do you know who I am?"

Lin Ze snorted coldly and said loudly: "No matter who you are, as long as you have committed many evil deeds, I, Lin Ze, will enforce justice on behalf of heaven today!" After that, he flashed and rushed towards the man in black robe. In an instant, the sound of fists and palms clashing could be heard continuously, and the two men started a thrilling life-and-death contest.

The black-robed man had special skills and attacked fiercely; Lin Ze was not to be outdone and used his unique martial arts that he had practiced for many years to fight him. For a moment, the dark room was filled with powerful energy and the tables, chairs and benches were smashed to pieces.

In the fierce confrontation, Lin Ze always maintained his calmness and keen insight. Finally, he spotted a flaw in the black-robed man and punched him in the vital part. The black-robed man screamed, staggered back a few steps, and finally fell heavily to the ground.

With the defeat of the black-robed man, the city finally got rid of the control of the dark forces and regained its former tranquility and peace. Lin Ze's heroic deeds soon spread throughout the streets and alleys, and people praised this chivalrous hero. But Lin Ze did not become proud and complacent because he knew that there were still many injustices in the world that needed justice, so his chivalrous deeds would never stop.

After bidding farewell to the city, Lin Ze continued his journey. One day, he passed by a forest and heard cries for help coming from the forest.

He rushed into the forest to check, and saw a huge monster chasing several people who looked like villagers.

Seeing the monster baring its fangs and claws and rushing towards the village aggressively, Lin Ze did not hesitate, and drew the sword from his waist with a "swish" sound, and rushed towards the monster like an arrow. The monster sensed that someone dared to come to stop its rampage, and immediately let out a deafening roar, then suddenly changed direction, opened its bloody mouth, and rushed straight towards Lin Ze.

Lin Ze was as light as a swallow, and he used his exquisite Qinggong to easily dodge the monster's fierce attack. At the same time, the long sword in his hand shone with cold light, and stabbed the monster's hideous eyes with lightning speed. With a scream of "Awoo", the monster was in unbearable pain from the sudden attack, and instantly became manic, waving its sharp claws like crazy, trying to fight back against Lin Ze.

However, Lin Ze was quick-witted and took advantage of the monster's panic. He seized the opportunity and leaped up, landing steadily on the monster's broad back. Then, he used all his strength to pierce the monster's vital point with the long sword in his hand. As a stream of black blood spurted out, the monster struggled painfully for a few times, and finally couldn't support its huge body, and fell to the ground with a bang, raising a cloud of dust.

The villagers who witnessed this thrilling scene gathered around and were grateful to Lin Ze. They excitedly told Lin Ze that the monster had suddenly appeared near the village in recent days, making everyone nervous and unable to sleep or eat. Lin Ze smiled and comforted the panicked people, saying that he was just doing his best. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a villager in the crowd who looked panicked and his eyes were evasive.

Lin Ze couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, thinking to himself: "This person's behavior is so strange, is there another hidden reason?" So he slowed down his pace and quietly followed the suspicious villager. After some secret observation and tracking, Lin Ze was surprised to find that the villager was actually instructed by another evil force to deliberately lead the monster here in order to create chaos and panic.

After learning the truth, Lin Ze was furious and decided not to tolerate evil anymore. He flashed in front of the villager like a ghost, and before the villager could react, he had already reached out and firmly grasped his throat. Facing Lin Ze's majestic questioning, the villager was so scared that he turned pale and had to honestly confess the hiding place of the evil forces and their conspiracy.

According to the clues provided by the villagers, Lin Ze rushed to the scene of the incident without stopping. In the end, he successfully found the evil lair hidden deep inside. A fierce battle between good and evil is about to begin, and Lin Ze did not hesitate to devote himself to this new journey of punishing evil and promoting good...
