Chapter 26: Guns

When Lin Yun saw Zhong Yi blocking the assassin for him, he was thankful that he had escaped disaster. Unexpectedly, another person ran out from the crowd and rushed towards him and Dai Yu with a dagger in hand.

Lin Yun was about to turn around and run back when he saw Xiao Mo suddenly rushing towards the man, hugging him around the waist, and shouted loudly: "Third Master, I will block him for you, hurry up~"

Before he could finish his words, he was kicked away by a man holding a dagger. The man ignored Xiao Mo who fell to the ground and pounced straight towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun hugged Daiyu and turned around and ran away, shouting loudly as he ran: "Catch the assassin."

Seeing that the man was about to catch up with Lin Yun, Hu Xiangyi ran out from the chaotic crowd, grabbed the man with his knife and started to kill him.

All this happened in a short period of time. When the onlookers saw someone committing the murder, they immediately screamed and ran away.

Lin Yun was worried that there were assassins in the crowd, so he wanted to protect Daiyu and run to a deserted place.

But at this moment, he heard Xiao Mo shouting loudly from behind: "Third Master, be careful, they have fire guns."

When Lin Yun heard the word "fire gun", he broke out in cold sweat. He didn't dare to look back to see the direction of the gunman. He directly hugged Daiyu and ran towards a crowded place, not caring whether there were any people among them.

assassin.

As soon as the two squeezed into the crowd, they heard a muffled bang behind them, and soon, the screams of several guests rang out around them.

Lin Yun felt a stabbing pain in his left back shoulder, presumably because he had been hit by a projectile, but he did not dare to stop and continued running towards a crowded place.

Fortunately, there was no sound of firecrackers from behind. It must have been that the assassin had only one firecracker. This man was the lucky one among his misfortunes.



At this time, the team of soldiers responsible for protection also ran over. Hu Xiangyi shouted to his soldiers while killing him: "Leave a few people to protect Mr. Lin, and the others quickly go to catch the assassin. No one is allowed to let go."

"

Seeing the soldiers gathered around him, Lin Yun calmed down from his panic. As long as the army was there, the assassins were nothing to worry about.

After confirming that there was no danger, Lin Yun asked Daiyu who was hiding in his arms: "Yu'er, are you not injured?"

Daiyu had been frightened for a long time. When she heard Lin Yun's question, she burst into tears.

Lin Yun said hurriedly: "Don't be afraid, we are already safe."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Mo leading Zijuan to run over in embarrassment and asked him: "Third Master, are you injured?"

Daiyu became anxious upon hearing this. She quickly stopped crying and searched for wounds on Lin Yun's body. "Brother, where are you injured?"

Zijuan said in panic: "Young nephew, your back seems to be bleeding."

Daiyu walked around behind Lin Yun and immediately cried again: "It's really bleeding, brother, let's go find the old miracle doctor to help you treat your injury."

Lin Yun comforted him: "It's a small injury, it's okay. Divine Doctor Guo is nearby, and he will be here soon."

Xiao Mo said hurriedly: "I'll go find him."

After saying that, he ran away quickly.



Not long after, Zhong Yi and Hu Baihu came over together.

Zhong Yi looked at Lin Yun and asked, "Sir, are you injured?"

Lin Yun waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. Has the assassin been caught?"

Hu Baihu: "There are five assassins in total, four men and one woman, and they are all dead."

"All dead?"

Hu Xiangyi: "Three of them were killed by Brother Zhong, and two others were surrounded by soldiers. Knowing that they could not escape, they committed suicide by taking poison."

When Lin Yun heard this, he cursed in his heart: "These people are really desperadoes. They know they will die, but they still fly into the flames without knowing who is behind the scenes."

Hu Baihu handed a short musket in his hand to Lin Yundao: "Mr. Lin, it was the female assassin who performed bowl kicking who shot you with this short musket."

"oh,"

Lin Yun took the gun and looked at it carefully. It was a hand gun made of pure copper. It was about thirty to forty centimeters long and exquisitely made. At first glance, it looked like a firearm purchased from the West.

Hu Baihu saw that Lin Yun liked this handgun very much, so he took the initiative and suggested: "Master Lin lacks something to defend himself, so I will give you this handgun."

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

When Hu Baihu saw that Lin Yun had indeed accepted the gift, he was secretly happy. This was the nephew of Mr. Lin, the salt inspector of the Huaihe River. If he could have a good relationship with him, he might be able to hug Lin Ruhai's lap and be promoted.

Getting rich is just around the corner.

At this time, Doctor Guo rushed over in a carriage. Seeing that Lin Yunzhen was injured, he hurriedly asked him to get in the carriage and treat his wound.

Daiyu was worried about Lin Yun's injury and also boarded the carriage together.



In the carriage, Old Man Guo looked at the wound on Lin Yun's back shoulder and said with a smile: "Boy Yun, I'm going to treat your injury this time, but remember to deduct twenty taels of silver."

Lin Yun said dissatisfiedly: "It's all because of you, the crow's mouth. I've always been safe and sound, but just because you cursed me that day, I'm now hurt immediately."

Doctor Guo: "It's your bad luck, it's none of my business."

Daiyu asked eagerly from the side: "Old miracle doctor, is my brother's injury not serious?"

Doctor Guo: "It's okay. I was just bitten by two small projectiles. Apply the wound medicine I made and it will heal in ten days."

Lin Yun said disdainfully: "Bragging! It will take half a month for a wound to heal at the fastest. Do you think I don't understand this?"

Divine Doctor Guo was unconvinced and said: "The medicine you are talking about is an ordinary wound medicine. This special medicine is very expensive. It costs five taels of silver to buy a pair of medicine."

"You might as well go and rob, and pay back five taels of silver. I don't think it's worth even one tael."

"You brat, your perfume can be sold for ten taels a bottle. This is a life-saving medicine for me, so why can't it be sold for five taels?"

"Don't you understand that rare things are valuable?"

"This wound medicine is also a rare item. No one else can buy it."

"What a liar, alas!"

Daiyu was just thinking that the bickering between the two was amusing, when she suddenly heard Lin Yun cry out in pain. She quickly asked with concern: "Brother, what's the matter?"

Lin Yun: "The old man just deliberately poked my wound with his finger."

When Daiyu heard this, she immediately looked at Old Man Guo with resentful eyes.

Doctor Guo hurriedly said: "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense. There is no wound that you can't clean without touching it."

Daiyu: "Then please be gentle."

"You tell him to shut up, and I will handle it more gently."



Just as Divine Doctor Guo was helping Lin Yun treat his wounds, Qian Cong brought someone over and said to Lin Yun: "Master nephew, my wife wants you to go back quickly."

Lin Yun hurriedly asked: "Does aunt know that I am injured?"

Qian Cong: "That's not the case. Mr. Jia met an old friend in the restaurant. I heard that he has something to do with Rongguo Mansion. My wife asked you to go back and receive him."

Daiyu asked curiously: "Since it's someone from the mansion over there, why doesn't mother receive her herself?"

Qian Cong said with a smile: "That man is just a relative of a servant in the Jia family. How can my wife receive him in person? If she does, it will insult our wife's status and make people laugh."

When Lin Yun heard this, his heart moved. Could it be that that person was Leng Zixing?
