"It's almost healed. In fact, it's just some skin injuries, nothing serious."
Hong Yu turned around and left the room with the medicine. Xiong Lin responded to Shangguan Hui with a simple smile.
But this time, Shangguan Hui did not take the opportunity to tease him. Instead, she nodded with a somewhat heavy expression.
"That's good. We can only succeed in the big event in the next few days, and we must not fail. It's just that you can't show up in the past few days, but there are many things that are inconvenient to do."
When it comes to business, Xiong Lin seems to be a different person.
He is the strongest warrior of the Bear Spirit Tribe, and fighting against his friends for his tribe has already made his blood boil.
What's more, he knows better than anyone else that if the greed of the four elders is allowed to take effect, the entire Bear Spirit Tribe will be ruined in their hands sooner or later.
"Brother Xiong Lin, I have something unclear. I hope you can give me an answer."
Shangguan Hui looked at Xiong Lin seriously and said.
The latter nodded, with a bit of seriousness on his face.
"I know that Xiong Ling is in cahoots with the Xin family, but according to my observation, the Xin family doesn't seem to have provided much help to the tribe. Why are those elders so devoted to the Xin family? And... I'm sorry. Let me put it bluntly, there is nothing in the Xiong Spirit Tribe that the Xin family can covet. I have always been a little bit unclear about this."
Shangguan Hui is a very smart woman. She is observant and can see many things clearly at once.
When Xiong Lin heard this, he sighed heavily.
"I don't know when this started. But when my father was still alive, he told me that this bear spirit was just a bait raised by the Xin family. Every five years, the bear spirit wants to Twenty boys and girls were offered to the Xin family. But now because of the arrival of Uncle Lin and the others, the Xin family said that if the Xiong Spirit could keep their bones and blood, they would be able to avoid having to offer sacrifices in the future. However, this would Is there any difference? Those who suffer are not all my people, Spirit Bear!"
Shangguan Hui was stunned. She really didn't expect that there was such an inside story.
Now, she understood why the elders were so worried.
After all, this kind of thing about dead Taoist friends but not poor Taoists now seems to be a way to benefit oneself.
But in this way, they have not become puppets of the Xin family, but the ones who have to be sacrificed are their Xiong Spirit people.
After a long while, she said in a low voice.
"Brother Xiong Lin's thoughts are indeed different from theirs. Only now do I understand why you had to help Nan Sheng and his son."
Xiong Lin, like Nan Sheng, is a man with a big heart.
Even if it was because of his relationship with Hong Yu, more importantly, Xiong Lin saw the sinister intentions of the Xin family.
"Helping others is helping yourself. Miss Shangguan, don't worry, as long as I'm here, Uncle Lin and Brother Lin will definitely be fine. It's time for those old guys to recognize the facts. The Xin family, huh, who I know what they are doing in private. But I, Spirit Bear, can no longer be manipulated by them!"
Xiong Lin's eyes were firm and he was obviously ready.
Shangguan Hui seemed to think that he should say something, but in the end, he found that whatever he said now was redundant.
It's not that Xiong Lin doesn't love his tribe, but his love is more sincere. He would rather be reborn from the ashes with pain than continue to linger.
At this time, Hongyu turned back.
The two people just exchanged a glance, and even she, an outsider, could read some connotations from their eyes.
She understood him, a thousand words, just one look was enough.
I couldn't help but feel envious.
He turned around and returned to his room with a smile.
She picked up a pen and wrote down the news she got today on the stationery she had hidden.
After thinking about it carefully, she always felt that it was time to tell Mengya about this matter.
The Xin family is so strange that they actually want Xiong Lin to worship a young girl. This thing has a weird smell to it.
What's more, they now actually want to exchange the blood of the Lin family.
Even as an outsider, she found it incredible.
Now, the entire Xiong Spirit tribe is loose on the outside and tight on the inside.
At the same time, the army sent by the king was also quietly lurking in the mountains.
When the two armies were fighting, Shangguan Hui thought that he could not help much, so he just acted as an idler.
After handing the letter to Uncle Lin, Shangguan Hui could only wait quietly like Hong Yu.
As the situation becomes increasingly tense, news is transmitted faster and faster.
The king was naturally afraid that any important news would affect the war situation, so within a few days, Hong Yu's letter was delivered to Lin Mengya first.
After reading this letter, Lin Mengya's suspicions were finally confirmed.
Sure enough, the Xin family was interested in the combination of Xiong Ling and the Lin family's blood.
And since the Xin family has put so much effort into it, it must be related to longevity.
She was suddenly worried that if the king used force to capture the bear spirit, the Xin family's ruthless behavior would give them some thoughts of never causing future troubles.
She immediately wrote a letter to remind the king, but before the letter could reach the hands of the frontline general responsible for encircling and suppressing the Xiongling tribe, the conflict broke out one night.
"You two quickly change your clothes and mingle among the old, weak, women and children in the village!"
Xiong Lin had secretly arranged for the innocent people in the village to go up the mountain to escape.
Hongyu nodded with Guan Hui and immediately went back to her room to change into some inconspicuous clothes.
After each of them took a look at their sweethearts, Xiong Lin's men escorted the two of them out under the cover of night.
The father and son of the Lin family were wearing well-fitting soft armor, and their usual expressions of helplessness and humiliation were all gone.
The two men held long swords in their hands and looked heroic. Even the darkness could not hinder their awe-inspiring courage.
The patience of these few months has now come to an end.
Outside the village, the king's people have gradually surrounded everything here.
Xiong Lin, who was also dressed in a smart outfit, nodded slightly with the two of them, and a ball of fire burned in the eyes of the three of them.
Tonight, it's time.
"Sir, please have a taste. This wine is our Xiong Spirit's treasure. Only the most distinguished guests can enjoy it. However, it is naturally not as good as the Xin family's fine wine."
In the elder building, which symbolizes status, the four elders, who were so majestic in front of the tribe, now smiled like prostitutes.
Shamelessly lowering his posture, not even giving up any dignity, just to get a little benefit from these people.
In other words, it is charity.
"This wine is indeed good, but you old guys are very disappointed. Before I came here, I heard from people in the clan that this woman from the Bear Spirit has a different taste even though she was born in a rough place. Today we Since I’m here, I also want to see it. What do you think, Great Elder?”
The speaker was a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and he looked like a mean and unkind person.
There was a malicious light in his eyes, and he stared at the elders in front of him with an arrogant attitude.
The great elder's eyes flickered, and then his face became stiff.
However, the other three elders had wolf-like eyesight, and were only ecstatic about getting the benefits, without any scruples at all.
The great elder's last doubt was dispelled. Isn't it a woman? He had already prepared it, but he was just afraid of being gossiped about, so he didn't offer it for a long time.
Seeing that the three people were not paying attention at all, the great elder smiled, his eyes full of the tacit understanding among the men.
"What's so difficult about this? Being able to serve the adults is a blessing they gained in their previous lives. The adults just need to taste the wine first, and I will arrange other things."
Several men from the Xin family all had disdainful smiles on their faces.
However, they really enjoyed this feeling of being praised to the heavens.
Their status in the Xin family is not high, otherwise they would not be sent to perform tasks in this mountain nest.
But the girls here are also extremely famous in the Xin family.
Who doesn't know that most of the boys and girls enshrined by Xiong Spirit have become the forbidden wives of powerful people in the Xin family.
But it's a pity that they usually can't even look at it, but now they can play with it freely, and they can't help but burn themselves out. Seduced by wine and sex, thoughts that were usually suppressed surged into my mind.
Hum hum, tonight, let these Xiong Spirit women see the glory of the Xin family!
For a moment, the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves on the second floor, but in the eyes of others, they were extremely disgusting.
"You, go and make arrangements. Today, we must make the adults of the Xin family happy. If it is done well, it will naturally benefit you."
The people below the great elder got the hint from the people inside and immediately came out to give orders.
The people below also knew what they meant, and immediately whispered some nasty jokes to make fun.
No one noticed that a figure slipped quietly along the corner of the wall...
Just after sending Hong Yu off to follow Guan Hui, the remaining three men were sitting together to discuss business.
Suddenly, the sound of someone banging on the door was heard outside.
The three people immediately became alert. After looking at each other, Lin Nansheng hid the long sword behind his back and calmly opened the door.
"who!"
Lin Nansheng asked in a low voice, but the people outside were just banging on the door and didn't respond at all.
Frowning, Lin Nansheng looked at the trembling courtyard door with a trace of cruelty in his eyes.
The door was suddenly opened, and before the other party was prepared, the sharp sword struck at the other party's neck.
It only takes one inch to kill the other person.
"Master Lin, please, please save my sister!"
Unexpectedly, he met a very young face. Lin Nansheng was stunned for a moment. He saw that this person looked familiar, and then he remembered that Xiong Lin had sent him to deliver letters to him several times.
His eyes couldn't help but soften a lot. Soon, Xiong Lin, who hadn't heard any movement for a long time, poked his head out of the room. When he saw the young man again, he couldn't help but let out a low cry.
