Chapter 77: A Gift in the Box

lf."Only oneself can protect oneself!"After coming here, he realized that the Great Qian dynasty wasn't very peaceful.There is no strict rule of law here. Those with power and influence can do whatev...Upon arriving at the door, Zhou Kun was startled.

The scene outside the door was exactly as the butler had said!

A crowd of hundreds, and countless onlookers, had already surrounded the Zhou family's gate, leaving no room to maneuver.

Yang Lin led a group of people, each holding a wooden box in their hands, standing right at the front gate. Zhou Kun smelled a foul stench from afar!

"Yang Lin, how dare you! You come to my Zhou family and make trouble! Do you really think my Zhou family is easy to bully"

Zhou Zhengyang pointed at Yang Lin and shouted angrily.

"And you lot, what are you all doing blocking this place Are you looking for death Get out of my way immediately, or I'll have you all arrested!"

Zhou Zhengyang pointed at the crowd watching the commotion and began to shout angrily.

In the past, commoners wouldn't dare to provoke the Zhou family and avoid causing trouble for themselves.

But today, they witnessed the bandits being killed with their own eyes. At this moment, they were still filled with excitement and enthusiasm. Who would take Zhou Zhengyang's words seriously

After Zhou Zhengyang finished scolding, the people remained unmoved. Yang Lin completely ignored him, which made Zhou Zhengyang even angrier.

Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and step forward, Zhou Kun gave him a look.

Despite having served many years as the head of the prison in Jianghe County, Zhou Kun was still very observant.

He could see the grief and anger on Yang Lin's face and that of the villagers. He also saw the excitement in the faces of the onlookers. Although he didn't know what had happened, he could feel that the atmosphere was very abnormal!

"Yang'er, please step back first!"

Zhou Kun stepped forward and bowed to Yang Lin: "Are you Yang Lin I'm Zhou Kun, the head of the Criminal Department. Yang brother, what brings you to see me Would you mind speaking with me in private"

Although he didn't know what was inside the boxes, something about them felt wrong. With so many people watching, he didn't want to cause a scene.

But what he never expected was that before Yang Lin and the others arrived, things had already escalated!

"No need." Yang Lin waved his hand. "This time I came to find Zhou, there are two things in total."

"Firstly, I would like Zhou Daren to help me identify someone. Secondly, I would like to present a gift to Zhou Daren!"

Zhou Kun frowned slightly. "Recognize someone"

"Not bad, you recognize people! Black Tiger from Black Wind Mountain, is Zhou-Lord acquainted with him" Yang Lin narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

Hearing the name Black Tiger, Zhou Kun's heart skipped a beat. He thought of Yang Lin being right in front of him, while Black Tiger was nowhere to be found. He couldn't help but wonder if Black Tiger had betrayed him

Zhou Kun's heart pounded with fear, but his face remained calm and collected. He waved his hand decisively and said, "This official doesn't know anything about black tigers or white tigers."

No matter how many people were there, he wouldn't admit it.

"Oh"

Yang Lin narrowed his eyes and walked forward.

Zhong Tao opened the wooden box he was holding and took out a large human head!

The moment the head was pulled out of the box, Zhou Kun and his son, Zhou Zhengyang, were both startled and stumbled back in fright!

Although the head was still bleeding, its face was covered in blood, and it looked ferocious and terrifying, but the black tiger's distinctive black face made it impossible for them not to recognize him.

Especially Heihu's round eyes were wide with fear, as if he was looking at them with an unyielding gaze of death. ...

Zhou Zhengyang was so scared that he took two steps back and sat down on the ground.

Zhou Kun fared a little better, but his face was still pale and he trembled as he pointed at the head, trying to say something. However, he stammered and stuttered for a long time, unable to utter a word.

"Zhou, take a good look. Just a few days ago, you were all drinking together." Yang Lin said coldly.

Zhou Kun swallowed nervously, trembling as he denied, "You, you're lying! This official doesn't know Black Tiger. You, you don't slander me! Where did this brain come from It was you who committed the murder!" Although panicked, he still didn't forget to shift the blame.

"Yes, yes, yes! You killed someone, you should be arrested!" Zhou Zhengyang, who fell to the ground, still didn't forget to utter threats.

Yang Lin sneered: "Not bad! I killed the man! But according to the laws of Great Qin, killing bandits is not only not a crime, but you can also receive a reward! This bandit leader, Black Tiger, would be worth even more, right"

"Master Zhou, as the head of the Criminal Justice Department, you don't recognize the bandit leader Black Tiger Could it be that in all these years, Master Zhou has never suppressed bandits"

"Don't worry if you don't know the black tiger, I have this one too!"

Saying that, Yang Lin waved his hand.

Two people on either side opened two wooden boxes separately and took out two heads.

"Do you know these people, Mr. Zhou"

Zhou Kun was startled again.

He knew these two heads too well! They were none other than the second and third leaders of Blackwind Mountain, who had accompanied Heihu that day!

Even they ended up...

Zhou Kun's face was pale, staring at the three heads in front of him. The broken necks were oozing black blood, and he trembled with fear.

Three heads of the three leaders of Heifeng Mountain are in the boxes.

Then what's left in those ten or so boxes is self-evident!

Zhou Kun's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would jump out of his chest. He couldn't think straight anymore, and Zhou Zhengyang was so terrified that he scrambled and crawled, hiding behind the old butler, trembling like a sieve.

Zhou Kun was dumbfounded, his jaw hanging slack in astonishment.

He really couldn't figure out what had happened.

He had the Black Tiger take people to capture Yang Lin, but in the end, Yang Lin was unharmed. All the bandits from Black Wind Mountain were wiped out and their heads chopped off.

"Master Zhou Take a good look, can you recognize this" Yang Lin asked coldly.

"I don't know! I don't know!"

Zhou Kun dared not look directly. He flustered and waved his hands.

Anyone can see he has something to hide.

However, after knowing what was in the box, Zhou Kun quickly calmed down.

He lowered his voice, trembling as he said, "You brought these heads here today, is it just to intimidate this official Hmph, Yang Lin, don't get too cocky! You can kill these bandits, but this official is a court appointed official. If you dare to do anything to me, it will be treason!"

His words sounded like a warning to Yang Lin, but in reality, he was just trying to encourage himself.

Yang Lin snorted coldly with disdain: "Lord Zhou, rest assured, I know my limits! As I said, I came today just to give Lord Zhou a gift!"

Saying that, Yang Lin shouted: "Come on, bring a gift for Lord Zhou!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd behind him, each holding a wooden box, opened them one by one. They took out the heads of bandits and shouted, "A gift for Lord Zhou!" Then they hurled the heads into Zhou's courtyard!

At the same time, the crowd parted, and the hearse pulling the corpses was led to the front. Villagers carried out the bodies from the hearse and threw them all at Zhou's doorstep.

Suddenly, outside the Zhou family's gate, there were dozens of headless corpses lying all over the place! The scene was extremely shocking.

At this moment, Zhou Kun was also scared out of his wits, he turned around and ran back.

"Great!!"

"Great!!"

The people cheered loudly. promised your father, and he'll definitely keep his word. So even if this trip to Pingyuan County doesn't work out, let's just throw our lot in with Yang Lin and rely on him. It's a win-win situation...
