Chapter 43: Toppling the Liu Family
shop owner was also overjoyed to have ten sets of clothes made at once.Yang Lin left the tailor shop, bought two boxes of pastries, and walked toward an ordinary courtyard not far from the city.He has...The women who had just woken up only then learned what had happened outside. Seeing a courtyard littered with corpses, they were instantly terrified and screamed in horror.
Outside, villagers carrying torches also rushed over.
"What's wrong What happened Oh, someone died!"
Zhao Fugui rushed into the small courtyard and immediately looked towards Yang Lin.
Seeing Yang Lin standing there perfectly fine, he finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Yang Lin, what's going on here Who are they"
Zhao Fu貴 hurriedly asked.
Yang Lin pointed with his finger at the entrance and said, "He has confessed. They were all sent by Landlord Liu to kill me."
What?
Zhao Fugui gasped and slapped his thigh hard.
"That Liu Youcai, what a daring son of a gun! He actually dared to hire assassins!"
"Hey…what's going on Why are they all dead"
Zhao Fu貴 asked in puzzlement.
The villagers who had just arrived gathered in a large group, clueless about what was happening, peering into the courtyard with curious eyes.
Yang Lin remained unfazed. "Tonight, it was our turn to keep watch at home. When they broke in with knives, my wife and I fought back desperately. Luckily, we managed to kill two of them, leaving two alive."
"That's how it is..."
Zhao Fuguai nodded, but he still felt something was off.
Without giving him a chance to think, Yang Lin immediately said: "Third Uncle, Liu Youcai sent people to kill me. Now there is both eyewitness and physical evidence. According to our Great Qin law, we should be able to punish him, right"
Zhao Fu Gui's eyes lit up instantly.
"That's right! Hiring a hitman is a serious crime, Liu Youcai is finished this time!"
Zhao Fuguai was almost laughing out loud.
Over the past few years, Liu Youcai has constantly threatened his village head's position.
After this incident, the Liu family is bound to be defeated!
"Please, Third Uncle, make the arrangements for me."
Yang Lin gave Zhao Fuguang a small piece of silver.
When he first arrived, Yang Lin was just an unworldly scholar, completely clueless about the intricacies of lawsuits and court politics.
The Great Qin Dynasty did not have the strict laws of later dynasties, so Yang Lin naturally wouldn't naively believe that as long as he was right, he would definitely win a lawsuit.
Although Zhao Fugui is only a village head, he has connections with people in the county town's Zhao family and is also a shrewd operator. He even more so wants to bring down the Liu family. When encountering such an incident, he will be more professional and attentive than himself.
As expected, Zhao Fugui took the silver and chuckled: "Rest assured, leave this to your Uncle San. Your Uncle San guarantees that everything will be done beautifully!"
"Hmm..."
Zhao Fugui pinched his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "This way, isn't there still a loophole Now prepare ink and brushes, and let the loophole confess and sign!"
"Having said that, Zhao Fugui turned around and shouted to the villagers gathered outside: 'Everyone has seen with their own eyes today that Liu the Landlord sent people to kill Yang Lin. Fortunately, Yang Lin was on guard and prevented Liu's family from succeeding. Everyone saw this, so please bear witness and come down to press your handprints!"
Immediately, Zhao Fugui and Yang Lin together checked the identities of these black-clad men.
They are all indeed slaves of the Liu family!
The three of them were all bought by the Liu family from elsewhere.
But there was one who originally came from a village nestled in the mountains.
Isn't this Wang Laosan
When Zhao Fuguang saw the face, he was stunned.
"Damn that bastard! What a treacherous swine! It's one thing if outsiders came to kill him, but he's from our village! He's actually sold himself out to Liu Youcai and considers him his father How could he do this Oh, you damn son of a bitch, you don't even care about your own brother!"
"His brother" Yang Lin asked in confusion. "It's Wang Gui! Don't you know he's Wang Gui's younger brother"
Yang Lin shook his head in confusion.
"Alas!" Zhao Fugui sighed, "The Wang brothers are refugees. A few years ago, their family was too poor to survive. This Wang Lao San is quite righteous; he volunteered to sell himself into slavery in exchange for money so his elder brother could take his niece and live."
But to my surprise, this damn thing, after following that old bastard Liu Youcai, actually changed.
"You helped his brother pay off his debts and even found him work, and he's trying to kill you What a bolt from the blue! Bah!"
"I see."
Yang Lin also suddenly understood.
Zhao Fugui was furious and raised his leg to kick Wang Lao San on the ground.
"Oh oh oh!"
Yang Lin hurriedly stopped him.
"Uncle Three, you misunderstood. They are indeed a group, but after Old Wang San came in, he shouted to report to me. In the end, he was stabbed by his own people. I think he was also forced into it."
"Oh"
"He still had some fight in him. Since he was the brother of a noble, it was worth trying to save him and see if he could be brought back to life."
Zhao Fuguai, however, frowned slightly: "With injuries this severe, is there any hope of saving him"
"Give it a try!"
Yang Lin said, “My wife, please find me a needle and thread.”
"Big sister, please boil some water."
Wang Lao San's knife wound is between his ribs, the cut is quite deep, and no one knows if it has reached his internal organs.
If you damage your internal organs, there's nothing we can do, only fate will decide.
But if the internal organs are not damaged, and it is sutured early, it can avoid excessive bleeding and death!
When everyone heard Yang Lin wanted to find a needle and boil water, they didn't understand why.
Until the water boiled and the thread and needle were ready, Yang Lin scalded the fine thread and needle in boiling water. Then he lifted Wang Laosan's shirt, wiped away the blood around the wound, and prepared to stitch it up with the needle.
Everyone around was stunned.
Is he going to use needle and thread to sew up the flesh
Even if you sew it up, can a person live
Everyone stared at Yang Lin with wide eyes.
Even Yang Lin himself, at this moment, had butterflies in his stomach.
He wasn't a doctor, nor had he ever performed surgery. He simply relied on the vast knowledge acquired in his past life to understand the principles of wound closure.
Wang Laosan's kind of wound can be treated with the eight-character suture method. Not only is the method simple, but it can also stop bleeding quickly.
It's one thing to have a theory, but it's another thing entirely when you put it into practice.
The wound was still oozing fresh blood. As the needle came close to the flesh, his hand trembled involuntarily.
Although the skin was so close, I couldn't bring myself to say a word.
Yang Lin took a deep breath again and kept telling himself, don't overthink it, just treat it like sewing...
Finally, the needle pierced through the skin!
All onlookers gasped in shock, many staring at Yang Lin in astonishment.
Only now are many people finally realizing that Yang Lin is different from before!
After this first breakthrough, Yang Lin's hands stopped shaking and his speed increased dramatically.
The wound was only about four centimeters long. After a few stitches were placed using the eight-character suture technique, the skin and flesh tightened up, and the bleeding stopped at an observable rate.
Until he finished stitching completely, Yang Lin felt utterly exhausted, his head swimming with sweat. He collapsed onto the ground.
Everything that needed to be done has been done, the rest is up to him now!n will our house be finished" Si Me asked with a hint of resentment."Hm In a hurry"Si Mei hugged Yang Lin's arm and coquettishly said: "That's right, our family, we all squeeze on the ground every day...
