Han Yuying clapped her hands and cheered: "Okay, it's time to have dinner!"
Lin Xiaodong had no choice but to agree: "Then it will be hard work."
Lin Xiaodong and Han Yuying went to Shi Xian's family and arranged a dinner with his wife Yang Xiuying and daughter Shi Huiling as company.
Shi Xianquan raised a cup: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for wiping out the water thieves in Qingyi Village and restoring peace to the village."
Lin Xiaodong said: "The leader of the thieves in Qingyi Village is full of evil and deserves to be killed."
Shi Xianquan asked: "I wonder where Mr. Lin is from?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Lin walks around and has no fixed place to live."
Han Yuying asked: "Do you have somewhere to go tonight? How about coming to my house? My parents' room happens to be empty."
Lin Xiaodong said: "This is not very convenient."
Han Yuying waved her hand: "It's okay, it's empty anyway."
Shi Xianquan said: "Master Lin might as well live in the village permanently. We fellow villagers will feel more at ease."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Don't worry, member Shi, Lin won't go anywhere until the water thieves are completely wiped out."
Lin Xiaodong and Shi Xianquan had two drinks before leaving and were taken home by Han Yuying.
Han Yuying's family had a clean courtyard and spacious house, and lived a stable life before being robbed by water thieves.
Lin Xiaodong sighed: "Miss Han's parents..."
Han Yuying lowered her head: "When the water thieves first came, I went to the county town to attend the fair. When I got home, my parents had been killed by them..."
Lin Xiaodong said: "So you are willing to lead the way for me."
Han Yuying nodded: "As long as I can avenge my parents and have a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Now your parents have to take revenge."
Han Yuying shook her head: "Not yet. The water pirates in Qingyi Village are supported by the Japanese pirates on Huangsha Island, and the Japanese pirates on Huangsha Island are supported by the Fuying people."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Don't worry, Miss Han, when Lin comes, he will clean up the thieves in this place."
Han Yuying stepped forward and took Lin Xiaodong's hand: "Master Lin, if you can avenge my parents, you will be my great benefactor..."
Lin Xiaodong said: "It's getting late, Miss Han, please rest."
Han Yuying nodded and arranged a room for Lin Xiaodong: "I'm next door, call me if you need anything." She went out.
Lin Xiaodong took off the iron sword from his back, put it on the table, and sat quietly on the bed with his eyes closed.
In the middle of the night, the moonlight shone in, and a dark figure appeared in the house, holding a bright dagger in his hand.
The man said "Hey", raised his dagger and stabbed Lin Xiaodong in the neck.
Lin Xiaodong closed his eyes and reached out to grab the man's wrist.
The man exclaimed: "Ah?"
Lin Xiaodong jumped up, picked up the iron sword on the table and shook it. The linen cloth fell off, revealing the sword's blade, which was as uneven as a fire stick but was polished to an unusually bright finish.
The man on the other side shouted loudly, raised his dagger and stabbed again.
Lin Xiaodong swung his Tibetan sword, and with a snap, the back of the sword hit the opposite wrist. He screamed in pain, and the dagger fell to the ground.
Han Yuying heard the noise and came over with a lamp: "What's wrong?"
When the light shone, Lin Xiaodong saw clearly that the man was Hu Ming.
Han Yuying shouted angrily: "What are you doing?"
Lin Xiaodong snorted coldly: "He is in the same group as the people in Qingyizhai!"
Hu Ming was exposed, turned around and ran towards the window.
Lin Xiaodong stepped forward and slapped Hu Ming on the shoulder with his Tibetan sword. He staggered and fell to his knees.
Han Yuying shouted: "Come quickly! Hu Ming is from Qingyi Village and wants to assassinate Daxia Lin!"
The villagers rushed over quickly, and Lin Xiaodong picked up Hu Ming's collar and threw him into the courtyard.
Han Yuying said: "Hu Ming turns out to be from Qingyi Village. It turns out that he was the one who spread the news. No wonder he kept making sarcastic remarks before and his heart was towards them!"
The villagers suddenly became red-eyed: "Is it you, a scumbag?"
"You bastard, you live in the same village, how could you do such a thing?"
"I said it was just a coincidence that the people from Qingyi Village came. It turned out to be your kid's fault!"
Hu Ming quibbled, pointing at Lin Xiaodong and saying: "I am not, he is from Qingyi Village!"
Han Yuying crossed her arms and said, "Really? If Hero Lin were from Qingyi Village, would he kill his brother?"
Hu Ming said: "To deceive you into trusting me!"
Han Yuying said: "Tell me first, why did you come to see Master Lin in the middle of the night?"
Lin Xiaodong smiled and said: "Which one of us is from Qingyi Village? I'll find out by searching your house."
Han Yuying said: "Yes, go to his house and have a look. He must have received the benefits of Qingyi Village!"
Everyone responded to the call and escorted Hu Ming to his home. They dug out a package under the bed, which was full of gold bars.
Han Yuying sprinkled the gold bars on the ground: "Where did they come from?"
Hu Ming said: "I went to Qingyi Village with everyone and found it!"
Han Yuying pinched her waist and cursed angrily: "You fart! Did you bring so many gold bars back from Qingyi Village by yourself?"
Hu Ming said: "You care how I brought it back?"
Han Yuying said to the villagers: "You saw it, it was him who did it, and he is still making excuses now!"
The villagers rolled up their sleeves and rushed forward.
Han Yuying asked Lin Xiaodong: "Brother Lin, what do you think we should do with it?"
All the villagers looked over.
Lin Xiaodong said: "Aren't the people in Qingyi Village the same as the people in Huangsha Island? Then let him go to Huangsha Island to report that Lin is here to accompany him in Huangqiao Village."
Hu Ming showed his true face, grinned ferociously and said: "Lin Xiaodong, you have the guts!"
The villagers came up and kicked him: "Get out of here!"
Hu Ming slipped away in despair.
Lin Xiaodong said to the villagers: "Tomorrow you all go to hide elsewhere. Lin will wait for the people from Huangsha Island to come and catch them all."
Everyone dispersed.
On the morning of the next day, the villagers left the village one after another with large and small packages, bringing many things to Lin Xiaodong.
Han Yuying said: "Brother Lin, thank you, no one cares about us except you."
Lin Xiaodong said: "You can go with them too."
Han Yuying shook her head: "I won't go."
Lin Xiaodong asked: "Aren't you afraid?"
Han Yuying nodded: "As long as Brother Lin is here, I'm not afraid."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Okay, you will bear witness to the villagers that it is Lin who wiped out the Japanese bandits on Huangsha Island."
Han Yuying pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Brother Lin, let's eat."
The two of them sat across from each other at the dining table. Lin Xiaodong saw a pot of ribs and corn, a fried fish, and a portion of mushrooms and wild vegetables. He couldn't help but ask, "Such a sumptuous meal so early in the morning?"
Han Yuying said: "If Brother Lin can't kill the Japanese pirates on Huangsha Island, then these will be the last few meals for the two of us. Of course we have to eat well. If we can kill them, we should celebrate well."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "What Miss Han said makes sense."
After dinner, Lin Xiaodong sat on a chair in front of the window, with the sun shining warmly on his body.
Half of the yard is planted with flowers and half with vegetables, and neither of them is taken care of very much.
There were only two of them left in the whole village, and even the chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs were silent.
Lin Xiaodong sat down until noon. Han Yuying came out and stared in surprise: "Brother Lin, have you been sitting here all morning?"
