At this time, his second daughter also spoke up, "That's right, didn't we already leave the money to mother? Besides, I'm interested in a marriage, so I must have some money to disguise myself."

Mother Lin was angered to death, but she didn't dare go to Lin Ze's place. In the town, the Wang family might come looking for her soon, and even hoped that her youngest son would be able to live. They could only grit their teeth and take out a hundred taels of silver from their own pockets and give it to Lin Yibin, gritting their teeth, "That's it, you have to save some money."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Mother Lin was holding in her anger as she shouted, "Who is it? Why are you knocking so late at night? Are you anxious to see the devil?!"

The person outside the door was neither fast nor slow. Even their voices were consistent as they knocked three more times.

Mother Lin cursed as she walked over to open the door. Outside the door, she saw a short fat man in red clothes. He didn't look very old, but his face was oily and he looked extremely old.

This person was Lie Mingyun.

The speed at which Lie Ming Yun was looking for someone was not slow at all, but there was no sign of him. At this moment, he happened to knock on the door and ask: "Did you see a girl climb out of a river?"

Mother Lin put her hand on her waist and scolded, "What Miss? Don't mention Miss to me, I get angry just by listening to you!"

"En!" Lie Mingyun's tiger-like eyes stared at him, but no one had ever dared to scold him like this before. Immediately, he stretched out his hand to grab Mother Lin's neck and threw her to the ground, "Speak!"

Mother Lin was confused by the fall, but her angry brain calmed down in an instant. This was not something to be easily bullied. Her legs immediately became weak. "Hero, I really didn't see anyone climb out of the river."

Lin Yibin whispered, "Mother, didn't you say that with the addition of a young lady, your martial arts would be even better?"

Lie Mingyun was about to turn around and walk away, but he stopped when he heard the noise, "What girl are you talking about?"

Mother Lin quickly flattered, "Today, I saw a little girl at my eldest son's house. She's only thirteen or fourteen years old. She looks like a celestial, and her martial arts are especially good."

Lie Mingyun's eyes widened as he heard this, "It's her, where did she go?"

"In this village. I'll take you there." Lin Yibin quickly led the way. Lin Mu's eyes turned, and she felt that this person was definitely not an ordinary person. If her family found the girl, they would naturally benefit a lot, so she also followed.

When the eldest son and second daughter saw this, they had the same thought as Mother Lin. They immediately followed her. If there were any benefits, they couldn't let their little brother get away with it alone.

However, when they arrived at Lin Ze's house, they realized that the building was empty.

Lie Mingyun wasn't someone who was easy to talk to. Seeing this, he felt like he had been fooled and immediately became angry: "Where is he?"

Everyone in the Lin Family turned the three huts upside down, but all the gold and silver was gone. Mother Lin instantly closed her eyes, almost fainting. This time, forget about the rewards, even living would be difficult.

Lie Mingyun grabbed Lin Yibin's neck, "Where is he!"

Lin Yibin could not break free, and only his face was filled with fear: "Maybe … "He fled."

"He ran away?" Lie Mingyun sneered, "Then why are you still alive?" Then, he twisted Lin Yibin's neck and threw him to the side.

In their family, her youngest son, Lin Yibin, was the most promising. She had been hoping that her younger son would bring her to a good life, but now … He disappeared just like that!

"You son of a b * tch, I'll kill you!" She screamed as she rushed towards Lie Mingyun, only to be slapped in the middle of her forehead with her palm. Immediately, she fell to the ground, dead.

When the eldest son and second daughter saw the situation turn bad, they turned around and ran. However, the two fish-like concealed weapons hit the back of their heads and in the blink of an eye, they were dead on the ground.

Lie Mingyun sneered, and then slapped his palm again. The flame ignited the house, and soon the entire yard was on fire.

He walked out of the courtyard and headed for the other village entrance. Although he had killed everyone, the girl they were talking about was most likely the one who had escaped from the hands of the three brothers.

Thinking of this, Lie Mingyun smiled sinisterly, "Since you have found it, I will never let you escape again." With that, a red figure flashed and disappeared.

On the other side, Mu Xiaoling and Lin Ze arrived at the roadside and coincidentally came across an ox cart that was heading towards Clearing Fishing Town. It was driven by an old uncle and was piled high with firewood.

Lin Xiangdie was a cute and adorable girl. She ran over to the old man with the others. "Uncle, we're in a hurry to get to town. Can you send us there?"

That old man looked at their clothes and guessed that they were from the nearby village, "It's a bit big, come on up."

"Thank you, uncle." Lin Xiangdie thanked him sweetly and got on the oxcart.

Mu Xiaoling followed closely behind and sat down with Lin Ze on each side.

This uncle was also a talkative person. As he walked, he talked about his family and friends. As he talked, he suddenly said, "Did you guys hear that the Yan Kingdom is sending the princess of the marriage alliance to our China?"

Mu Xiaoling was slightly startled. Could it be that she wasn't in Yan Country, but rather had followed the river to Xia Country?

Lin Ze replied, "That's right, I've heard about it too. However, although we aren't too close to the border, logically speaking, we should have heard about it long ago. However, there hasn't been any news about it until now."

The old uncle said, "There are so many people. Maybe they were delayed along the way. This is a good marriage alliance. With them being relatives, there will be no need for war in the future. If we don't fight, we civilians will be able to live a peaceful life."

Lin Xiangdie was filled with envy. She longingly asked, "Princess must be very beautiful. She must have a lot of nice looking clothes, as well as an endless supply of snacks and meat."

Lin Ze laughed involuntarily. "Silly child."

The old uncle put them down and left, leaving only the three of them behind. Lin Ze said, "There's only an inn in town, but the price is a bit expensive, let's go there first and go there for the night. We'll leave tomorrow morning."

"No." Mu Xiaoling shook her head and said, "When you go out, others will definitely think that we'll stay in an inn. That place is actually dangerous. Father, do you know where we'll rent an inn?"

The three of them had already agreed on a father-daughter relationship, but she couldn't bring herself to call him father, so she called him father instead.

"I know one place. It's over by Ye Xian's alley. If I come too late to deliver the fish, I would stay there for the night. It's cheap, but it's a bit more dirty." Lin Ze spoke with slight hesitation. Not only was the environment messy, but the people living there were also of the lower class, including most of the clandestine prostitutes.

"Let's go there." Mu Xiaoling nodded in agreement. That kind of place had all sorts of people, making it easier to conceal one's identity. With her watching out for them, they naturally wouldn't let anyone hurt the Lin Family's father and daughter.
