Shi Xueping said angrily: "I don't know what my brother did, but he still came to Yunya Mountain to show off his evil deeds?"
Lin Xiaodong didn't care and said: "Go to sleep."
There was a man named Jiang Xingyi in Gaoliang County who worked as a warehouse manager for the salt merchant Chang Congzhi.
That morning, Jiang Xingyi came to check the goods. When the door of the salt warehouse opened, he was stunned.
An entire warehouse of salt disappeared overnight.
Jiang Xingyi stumbled and crawled to see Chang Congzhi: "Master, it's bad, the salt is gone!"
Chang Congzhi blinked: "No more?"
Jiang Xingyi stammered: "A whole warehouse of salt is gone!"
Chang Congzhi was stunned for a moment, and he and Jiang Xingyi hurriedly took a look. Only a thin layer on the ground was left in the huge salt warehouse.
Chang Congzhi's eyes were dull: "Who will come to steal the salt?"
Jiang Xingyi said: "I came to check in the morning, and the warehouse door opened like this!"
Chang Congzhi covered his chest and said, "This is my goods for a year!"
Jiang Xingyi said: "Hurry up and report it to the official!"
The two went to the county government office, and Yang Qingcan ordered Liu Qinghan and Jiang Li to investigate.
The two came to the warehouse. Jiang Li walked around with his hands behind his back, shook his head and said with a smile: "Who stole the salt? There is enough salt in this warehouse to last ten lifetimes!"
Liu Qinghan asked Jiang Xingyi: "How much is missing in total?"
Jiang Xingyi said: "This warehouse is basically full."
Chang Congzhi sighed: "If I can't get this back, my whole year's work will be in vain!"
Liu Qinghan asked: "How did you transport such a warehouse of salt?"
Jiang Xingyi shook his head: "I don't know, someone was clearly guarding me at night."
Liu Qinghan glanced at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li waved his hand: "Go ahead, go ahead."
Liu Qinghan came to Yunya Mountain.
Shi Xueping and Lin Xiaodong came to see them.
Liu Qinghan said: "I'm here to trouble Mr. Lin again."
Lin Xiaodong asked: "What strange thing happened to Miss Liu again?"
Liu Qinghan shook her head and said, "Have you ever heard of someone stealing salt?"
Shi Xueping looked over and stared: "Stealing salt?"
Liu Qinghan nodded: "Yes, a whole warehouse of salt disappeared overnight without anyone noticing."
Shi Xueping said blankly: "What are you doing stealing salt? Can you sell it for money? You don't need to steal it to eat it yourself."
Liu Qinghan said: "I can't figure it out either, so I came to see the young master."
Lin Xiaodong asked: "The amount of salt that was stolen is not small?"
Liu Qinghan said: "There is a whole warehouse, and the salt merchant said it is enough for a year."
Lin Xiaodong said: "If this is the case, no matter where the salt is now, there must be a place to store it. When I find the salt, I also find the person who committed the crime."
Liu Qinghan asked: "How to find salt?"
Lin Xiaodong smiled: "Miss Liu, just wait for my news."
Liu Qinghan went down the mountain.
Lin Xiaodong returned to his residence and fell into meditation. At dusk, he opened his eyes and asked, "Ping'er?"
Shi Xueping came into the room: "Young Master?"
Lin Xiaodong got out of bed: "I found salt."
Shi Xueping asked: "Where?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Pukui Mountain Zhenqing Cave."
Shi Xueping was puzzled: "Is it the monster again? What did the monster do to steal the salt?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "I don't know either. Come with me to see Miss Liu."
The two rode down the mountain and came to the county government office.
Liu Qinghan and Jiang Li came to see them.
Liu Qinghan asked: "Is there any news?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "I found salt."
Liu Qinghan asked: "Where?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Pukui Mountain Zhenqing Cave."
Jiang Li asked: "Is it another monster?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded.
Jiang Li was puzzled: "Why do monsters steal salt? Do you think the food is tasteless?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Go and ask and you will know."
Liu Qinghan, Jiang Li and several official officials came to Pukui Mountain together with Lin Xiaodong and Shi Xueping.
There is a demon cave in Cashew Mountain, with the door tightly closed and the words "Zhenqing Cave" written on it.
Liu Qinghan squatted down and picked up a handful of salt flowers: "We've come to the right place."
Jiang Li stamped his feet and shouted: "Monster, come out quickly!"
In Zhenqing Cave, Zou Chang, Xu Yunyao, Jiang Yiqian, Yuan Rong, and Jiang Bo heard the sound and rushed out.
Xu Yunyao smiled: "The officials are here."
Shi Xueping took a step forward and pointed sideways at Lin Xiaodong: "I'm not just a member of the official family. Listen up, this is Mr. Lin Xiaodong!"
Zou Chang and others said in unison: "Lin Xiaodong?"
Xu Yunyao said warily: "What are you doing here?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Hand over the salt."
Xu Yunyao stood up and stared: "Why?"
Liu Qinghan shouted: "You stole this!"
Lin Xiaodong asked: "What are you doing stealing salt?"
Zou Chang said: "Jiang Xingyi and I had some grudges in the past."
Lin Xiaodong was aggressive: "You monsters, how can you have any grudge against a person?"
Zou Chang said: "I will avenge the revenge of my previous life in this life! Jiang Xingyi was a warehouse manager, so I stole his goods. I want him to live in a lifetime without accomplishing anything, and life would be worse than death!"
Liu Qinghan cursed angrily: "You are so vicious!"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Give the salt back, and you will no longer cause evil and chaos. I will spare your lives, otherwise, you will inevitably die."
Zou Chang snorted: "The salt is in my Zhenqing Cave. If you have the ability, come and get it!"
Jiang Bo fought out with his sword: "I, Jiang Bo, from Zhenqing Cave, want to come and learn from you!"
Lin Xiaodong stood up with his sword and stepped forward to fight with Jiang Bo.
The two fought for ten times, and Lin Xiaodong beheaded Jiang Bo with one sword.
Yuan Rong stared: "Brother Dao!" He drew his sword and came to kill.
Lin Xiaodong raised his sword to meet him, raised his two swords together, and fought twenty times, stabbing Yuan Rong in the chest, killing him.
Jiang Yi shouted loudly before shaking his sword to get it.
Lin Xiaodong came to meet him with a sword in his hand. The conflict swirled and they fought for more than twenty times. He picked up a sword and stabbed Jiang Yi in the front ribs, killing him.
Xu Yunyao shouted angrily: "Lin Xiaodong!" and jumped out.
Lin Xiaodong swung his sword and resumed the fight. After thirty rounds of fighting, he stabbed Xu Yunyao in the throat and died on the ground.
Zou Chang flew over and asked: "Are you going to kill my Taoist brother?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "You will bring the blame upon yourself!"
The two fought together for more than thirty years. Lin Xiaodong struck Zou Chang in the face with his sword and died.
Lin Xiaodong flicked his sleeves and took away the souls of Zou Chang, Xu Yunyao, Jiang Yiqian, Yuan Rong and Jiang Bo.
Jiang Li led his officials into the cave and saw several stone chambers filled with salt.
Liu Qinghan said: "It turns out that stealing salt is a personal grudge, not for any purpose."
Lin Xiaodong and Shi Xueping left, and Liu Qinghan ordered an official to inform Chang Congzhi. Chang Congzhi hired someone to bring the salt back to the warehouse without much loss.
That night, Liang Yu's poems fell on Yunya Mountain.
Shi Xueping and Lin Xiaodong came out.
Liang Yu wrote in a poem: "Xing Xian Cao in Changlin Mountain strictly stated that if he wants to avenge Cao Jian, I will take action on behalf of the young master."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Miss Liang, there is no need to run around here and there."
Liang Yu wrote in a poem: "I have magical powers, but I have nowhere to use them."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Then thank you, Miss Liang."
Not long after, Yan Yan from Xingxian Cave in Changlin Mountain, Qi Yue, Liu Zhong, Liu Qi and Sun Jian came up the mountain to fight.
Yan Yan asked Lin Xiaodong angrily: "Are you Lin Xiaodong?"
Lin Xiaodong raised his head and replied: "It's that someone."
Yan Yan immediately unsheathed Gang Song's sword: "You killed my brother Cao Dao!" Liang Yushi gritted his teeth: "I killed Cao Jian!"
