The Princess of Northern Land
Chapter 122 Opportunity
As soon as the thief confessed that Ma Erlang was the one who provoked the people, the villagers immediately started talking like a pot exploding.
"It's really possible. Didn't you see that no one from the Ma family showed up?" Some smart people have already started to pay attention to the people coming over.
"Boss, it's useless to protect that guy Ma Erlang now. His kid has caused us misery." Someone retorted unconvinced, "I didn't see him coaxing us in. He said he was watching outside, but something happened now. His kid ran away, what kind of loyalty is that?" The thief began to fight among himself.
Lin Ziyin watched them fighting in the den with cold eyes. It was great that these guys knew the truth before the people in the yamen could interrogate them.
"Why did Ma Erlang ask you to come here?" Lin Ziyin asked.
This time, no one paid attention to her, probably because she was a woman and did not take her seriously.
Lin Ziyin kept silent, picked up the stick that he had just dropped, and beat the person who was hanging up hard.
The sound of the thunderbolt hitting the meat made everyone present involuntarily tremble all over.
"You dead girl, a cruel bitch, you deserve to be plotted against your Lin family." The hanging man was beaten until he screamed, but his mouth refused to forgive.
"Who are you scolding?" Lin Changshu also got angry. He went over and hit the thief in the face with another thunderbolt.
"Sooner or later, you Lin family will suffer retribution, and you will be taken over by others." The thief became more and more fluent as he cursed.
Lin Ziyin threw away the stick in his hand, then stretched out his hand and twisted the thief's arm hard. Everyone heard a click, and then saw the thief's arm drooping unnaturally.
"Ah." The thief couldn't help shouting.
Lin Ziyin was unmoved, and then there was another click. This time his other arm seemed to be broken.
"My arm, my hand."
"Tell me, what did Ma Erlang ask you to do?" Lin Ziyin asked sternly.
The villagers did not expect Lin Ziyin to be so cruel. He broke off the thief's two arms without changing his expression in front of so many people. They were all so frightened that they couldn't help but step back. Many people also secretly made up their minds to watch in the future. You must go around her when you see her, and you must not offend her.
"You have a tough mouth, right?" Lin Ziyin sneered, not giving the thief any time to react. He walked up to the other thief and twisted it hard again. The tragedy happened again, and the thief's arm was also broken.
"You don't have to hit me, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything." This guy is not a tough guy. He just lost an arm, so he was so frightened that he poured beans out of a bamboo tube and confessed everything. "Ma Erlang said that your Lin family has recipes for extracting vegetable oil and making tofu, and you sold them for a lot of money. He also said that you went to the market to sell things and offended people who shouldn't be offended. Sooner or later, these recipes will make money. It will be snatched away by the nobles, so let us all come over and see if we can strike first and grab the prescription, and at the same time steal your Lin family's money."
When the villagers heard this, they were immediately in an uproar. Although they usually have a small farmer mentality, they are not vicious people at heart. The Lin family is from a village, and they naturally do not want to be bullied by outsiders. In the eyes of everyone, Ma Erlang's eating inside and outside was simply an unforgivable thing.
"How can you be sure that what you said is true?" Lin Ziyin asked with a sneer.
"We all have evidence. Our boss is afraid that Ma Erlang will say fake things, and he is even more afraid that something will happen and he will regret it, so before coming here this time, Ma Erlang pressed his fingerprints and gave it to us." Another thief saw that his companion had nothing to say. I confessed, so I was eager to show my merit.
"Where are the fingerprints?" Lin Ziyin continued to ask, "Okay, great. As long as there is direct evidence, I am not afraid that Ma Erlang's family will run away."
"It's at the boss's place." The thief felt that now that he had been recruited, there was no point in hiding the rest. So, simply, whatever Lin Ziyin asked, he happily agreed.
"Uncle Li Zheng, what do you think we should do?" After asking, Lin Ziyin looked at Li Zheng and pushed the rest of the matters to Li Zheng.
"Go, take a few people to Ma's house and capture Ma Erlang." There was a thief in the village, and Li Zheng was very angry at this moment.
The villagers were equally annoyed. The atmosphere in Shili Village had always been good, and there were very few cases of stealing. Although they were a little poorer, the villagers felt that the people in the village were still very simple. But today, I didn't expect that Ma Erlang, a rip-off, would appear. If that guy was able to touch the Lin family today, he might be able to collude with outsiders to harm the entire village in the future.
So as soon as Li Zheng finished his instructions, several people immediately went to Ma Erlang's house to arrest people.
The more people go, the quicker they come back. However, there was no figure of Ma Erlang among the people who came back. Instead, Bao and the two crying children followed.
Lin Ziyin frowned slightly, and the rest of the Lin family also showed displeasure on their faces.
"Where's Ma Erlang?" Li Zheng was furious.
"Those who killed a thousand swords, you are bullying others. Why are you shouting at us in the middle of the night?" Mr. Bao started acting up as soon as he entered the yard.
Lin Ziyin watched coldly, waiting for Li Zheng to deal with it.
"Don't howl." Li Zheng roared, and Bao's voice was so frightened that he lowered his voice. "Open your eyes and take a good look. These thieves were all provoked by Ma Erlang. They have evidence of Ma Erlang in their hands."
Mrs. Bao cried very forcefully after hearing the first half of the sentence, but when she heard that the thief had evidence, her eyes immediately widened and she could no longer cry.
"Tell me, where is Ma Erlang going?" Li Zheng stared at her and asked.
"Li Zheng, I don't know. The dead man said he went out to drink with friends, but he didn't come back at all. Li Zheng, couldn't it be that the Lin family beat him up and hid him?" Bao's eyes rolled. Then came a blow and a rake. "My Erlang is just greedy for drinking, but he is very timid. How dare he do this kind of murder and swindling? It is obvious that the Lin family has colluded with others to plot against our Erlang."
After saying that, she started crying again.
After hearing what she said, Lin Ziyin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, concluding in his heart that Mr. Bao knew something about what Ma Erlang had done.
"We really have evidence. If it weren't for Ma Erlang's instigation, how would we have known about the Lin family's situation." A thief shouted.
"Ma Erlang is missing, Ziyin, what do you think should be done?" Although Li Zheng was very angry with the Ma family, the thief was from his own village. If word spread, their village would lose face, so he did not I don't really want to stuff Ma Erlang into the Yamen.
