Chapter 90 The Luo Family's Reaction
Chapter 90 The Luo Family's Reaction
"Fine, you're just naturally stubborn and won't listen to advice." Yang Chenglu had returned to his previous relaxed state, sitting in the chair, without any of the aura of a great man.
"There's something I need to tell you. I'm preparing to take action against the Black Dragon Gang," Wang Ling said, changing the subject.
"Black Dragon Gang? An alliance of more than thirty gangs is nothing but a rabble. What, did someone provoke you?" Qiu Changming asked.
"A few days ago, Song Heilong, the leader of the Black Dragon Gang, sent someone to assassinate Lin Qing. This time, his actions have crossed the line. Moreover, Song Heilong has been secretly searching for young boys and girls, and I'm afraid he's secretly colluding with the Bai'er Sect. I've wanted to take action against Song Heilong for a long time, but the Yin Yuan Sect has been too much of a hindrance these past two years, and I haven't been able to focus on it. Now that they've come to me on their own initiative, I won't allow them to act so recklessly!" Wang Ling said coldly.
"Daring to infiltrate the Soul Suppression Division's territory and take action is indeed overstepping the bounds. Let's proceed then." Yang Chenglu nodded.
...
into the night.
The Luo family mansion.
Luo Wandeng looked at Luo Tai lying on the bed, his face so gloomy it seemed like water could drip from it. He had a son late in life, and Luo Tai was his most beloved son.
At that moment, he saw Luo Tai lying on the bed, his face ashen, his voice weak and feeble, and his heart was bleeding.
Beside them, a beautiful woman was sobbing, wiping away tears with a plain white handkerchief every now and then.
"Master, the young master's injuries are severe. His bones are broken, and his internal organs are damaged. Even with daily rest, it will take at least three to six months before he can stand up again, and..."
The old doctor, who had just finished examining Luo Tai's injuries, paused slightly at this point, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"Speak freely," Rowandeng said in a deep voice.
"Master, some injuries are irreversible. Even if the young master recovers, his strength will decrease and his growth rate will be greatly slowed down," the white-bearded old man with a goatee said slowly.
"It's ruined?" Rowandeng squinted.
"Well, he's not completely useless, but he's definitely not as good as before," the old doctor said in a deep voice.
"Father, avenge me!" Luo Tai suddenly roared from the bed, his lungs aching terribly, his heart filled with boundless hatred.
"Master, that damned Lin Qing! It's just an assessment, why did he have to be so cruel? Master, you must do justice for Tai'er!" The woman burst into tears.
"Shut up, what kind of behavior is this, crying and sobbing like this?" Rowandeng shouted.
The woman immediately shut her mouth, no longer daring to cry out loud, but only sobbing softly.
"Peace and safety!"
"Master, I'm here!" The old servant walked in from outside the door.
"Send someone to deliver a message to Lin Qing. I will host a banquet for him at Sanhualou in three days," Luo Wandeng suddenly said.
"Master, quickly go and invite Chief Song to kill that little bastard!" the woman suddenly said.
"Shut up! Lin Qing now holds the Golden Token, has Wang Ling as his backer, and can directly meet with Chief Envoy Yang. Revenge? You're trying to kill me. Stabilize him first, don't let Lin Qing harbor resentment towards the Luo family. Wait until he loses the Golden Token as a protective talisman before you make your move. Revenge requires patience!" Luo Wandeng said coldly.
"Master, what should we do if Lin Qing takes this opportunity to demand those five shops?" Fu'an asked.
"Then give it to him, but don't force it during this time," Rowandeng said in a deep voice.
...
The next day.
The town of Zhenhunsi.
The sun shines brightly in the courtyard.
Lin Qing and two others sat around a table, raising their glasses to drink together, including Ma Ziye and Li Ping.
"The Soul Suppression Division's assessment is over, and the three of us performed quite well. We should celebrate! Cheers!" Li Ping, the oldest among the four, raised his glass first.
"Cheers!"
The three clinked glasses and drank their wine in one gulp.
"Miss Ma, of the three of us, I am most worried about you. If you ever encounter any trouble in the future, just let me know, and I will definitely lend a hand!" Li Ping said in a deep voice.
"Who do you think you are? This heroine is quite formidable. Besides, I'm in the Yin-Yang Division. What danger could I possibly face? Brother Li, you should be careful. You're in the Night Patrol Division's exorcism team, and you'll be dealing directly with Yin Yuan Sect followers frequently. You must be careful!" Ma Ziye exclaimed.
Lin Qing listened from the side and nodded slightly: "Brother Li, if you don't want to stay in the exorcism team, just tell me, and I might be able to help you transfer to another team."
The Jinling constables could freely choose where they wanted to go, but the other three-class constables could not, including the first-class constables, who were assigned to wherever there was a shortage of people.
Li Ping was assigned to the most dangerous exorcism team. Although the treatment was the best, many people lost their lives every year.
Li Ping shook his head: "There's nothing to be afraid of. This is such a small matter, it's not worth your help."
"Alright, Brother Li, just be careful. None of the three of us can get hurt," Lin Qing said softly.
The three chatted for a while longer before getting up and heading out to different locations to report. Lin Qing was naturally going to the corpse collection team.
He had just stepped out of the courtyard when he heard someone calling his name from behind.
"Brother Lin, wait for me."
Lin Qing turned around and glanced around. He saw Wei Dong running towards him, holding a donkey meat sandwich in his hand. Even before he got there, a rich aroma wafted over.
"Brother Lin, want a bite?" Wei Dong caught up with him, taking a big bite of donkey meat sandwich as he walked, and mumbled indistinctly.
"I don't eat donkey meat," Lin Qing replied.
"Hey, Brother Lin doesn't know how to enjoy life. Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground, this baked flatbread is really delicious." Wei Dong said, taking another big bite.
Before long, the two arrived at the Tiger Roar Hall courtyard. Each courtyard here had a different name, and the courtyard where the corpse collector was located was called Tiger Roar Hall.
The layout of the courtyard is not much different from that of the small courtyards in Jiangyin County, except that the area is several times larger.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, a burly man with a dark face glanced at me and approached me.
"New here? What's your name?"
"Lin Qing!"
"Wei Dong!"
The big man initially seemed nonchalant, but his expression changed immediately upon hearing the two men's names.
"So you are Jin Ling, a humble servant. It's a pleasure to meet you both. Please come in, young men. Since you're new here, you should first register your information at the personnel office."
"Where is the personnel office?" Wei Dong asked.
"Go inside, turn right after entering the back courtyard gate," the burly, dark-faced man directed.
"Thanks, brother," Lin Qing said.
"Haha, it's no trouble. My name is Cao Yang. If you ever have any difficulties in the future, just let me know, and I'll definitely help you." The burly man with the dark face acted very enthusiastically.
Following Cao Yang's instructions, the two passed through the back gate, turned left, and entered a stone house next door.
As soon as Wei Dong entered, his eyes lit up. He saw a girl with long, straight black hair lying on the table, snoring. Drooling was dripping from the corner of her mouth onto her fair and slender arms.
"This, this, this girl is so beautiful!" Wei Dong stammered.
Lin Qing glanced at her and had to admit that the girl was indeed very beautiful, with delicate features and snow-white skin, but her chest was completely flat.
"Ahem." He coughed lightly, and the girl suddenly opened her eyes, as if she had been disturbed from her sleep. Her first reaction was to wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth, and her second reaction was to curse loudly.
"What are you two doing? Can't you see your grandma is sleeping? If you can't give me a straight answer, I'll kick your butts raw!"
