Chapter 583 Kidnapping
"Four?"
Looking at the aggressive old men, all of whom were post-natal warriors, Su Lin was a little puzzled. Why did the Wu family attach so much importance to it?
This was equivalent to sending out half of the family's warriors. These four old men were probably the elders among them.
"Boy, who are you? How dare you break into my Wu family's house? And you even injured our Wu family's children. You are so arrogant!"
Several people took turns to scold him, and only one person did not speak.
This warrior was about to break through the post-natal realm, which means that he was only one step away from entering the realm of cultivation. Judging from the respect others showed him, he must have a high status in the Wu family.
If he was not the head of the family, he was at least the head of the family's brother.
Su Lin did not rush to take action. He wanted to figure out the whole story, so he waved his hand, "I just wanted to visit the Wu family. Who knew that these people were blind and wanted to stop me. This is not my fault."
After these words, the four old men's faces became ugly. This was clearly a provocation to their dignity.
However, they are all veterans. Seeing Su Lin so proud, they subconsciously guessed what his confidence was. They looked left and right, but they couldn't tell what his cultivation level was.
The three old men were still wondering, but the one with a higher status felt a chill on his back. He knew that the person in front of him was the legendary cultivator.
Compared with their three-legged cat skills, he was simply not a heavyweight.
But as the famous royal family of the Northern Kingdom, how could the Wu family lower their posture in front of a guy who didn't show off his skills? But they also didn't want to make things worse.
So he stood up and introduced himself: "My name is Wu Minghe, and I am the head of the Wu family. I wonder what this little brother's name is?"
"Su Lin." This name was said in an extremely calm tone.
At this moment, Wu Minghe's mind was searching rapidly, but in his image, let alone the Northern Kingdom, even in the entire Shenzhou Continent, there was no such person.
But he still pretended to be polite and bowed, "Brother Su, I think there must be some misunderstanding between us. May I ask if we can go in for a cup of tea and talk slowly?"
Su Lin did not give him face. After all, the purpose of this trip was not to offend the Wu family. Rescuing Ding Pingzhou was the first task.
When he followed the four of them into the house, Su Lin glanced at the side. There was a locked house there, but there was no movement inside.
But if Ding Pingzhou was really caught by the Wu family, there would be no other place to hide.
Several people sat down, Wu Minghe sat in the main seat, and a chair was left empty next to him.
In this world, the martial arts family pays special attention to the so-called rules, and those with high and low status are clearly divided.
Therefore, without Wu Minghe's order, others dare not say much.
On the other hand, Su Lin seemed to not care at all. He sat down and even crossed his legs, looking careless on the outside.
Wu Minghe personally served Su Lin a cup of tea, and then asked with a smile: "I wonder why you did this, little brother Su?"
"As far as I know, you don't seem to have much to do with my Wu family, right?"
Su Lin nodded without hesitation and said what he wanted to do, but when he heard the three words Ding Pingzhou, Wu Minghe's face clearly flashed with a hint of unnaturalness.
It seems that things have exceeded his expectations?
This made Su Lin feel a little uneasy, not because of the Wu family, but because he was worried that something unexpected would happen.
But there is a saying that the less you think about it, the more God will do it.
Wu Minghe knew that he couldn't hide the truth from Su Lin, so he apologized: "Little brother Su, to tell you the truth, originally, Lord Ding was invited to our house by us, but..."
He didn't rush to explain what happened, but first introduced the identities of the old men next to him to Su Lin.
These are all his brothers, with a small age difference, the second oldest Wu Erhe, the third oldest Wu Sanhe, a total of eight.
Su Lin was surprised. His mother was quite fertile!
Wu Minghe actually brought five brothers with him. He left three to look after the family. The only one missing was the fifth brother.
At this point, Wu Minghe's voice trembled. He was worried that the truth would bring disaster to the entire Wu family.
But after hesitating for a moment, he suddenly drank the tea in front of him and sighed deeply: "Forget it, I won't hide it from you."
"Originally, I asked the fifth brother to look after Lord Ding, but who knew that he actually took Lord Ding away."
"Now I know that he is actually a member of the Holy Temple."
This is really shocking news.
As a relative of the royal family and a martial arts family, what kind of wealth can't the fifth brother enjoy? He actually joined the Holy Temple. Does he like that kind of life?
There may be more secrets behind it, and there is no time for Ye Kun to investigate at this moment.
"What does he want to do?" Su Lin continued to ask. At this moment, he was also considering Ding Pingzhou's safety.
Wu Minghe shook his head, "I don't know, but after discussing with my brothers, we have a guess."
"Oh?" Su Lin was very curious.
But in fact, he already had a clue in his heart. It was nothing more than Ding Pingzhou's status and position, and he wanted to weaken the power around the fat emperor.
Isn't this temple a place where you can get things done for money?
The employer is most likely the two princes, the crown prince, or the fat emperor's younger brother, Prince Zhang.
But at this moment, Ding Pingzhou must be in dire straits. However, since he wants to be the peak of power in the North, he naturally knows that he can't rely on force.
Ding Pingzhou is a role model for civil officials. If he can get support, he will be even more powerful.
In other words, if Ding Pingzhou surrenders, there will not be too bad results. The trouble is that Ding Pingzhou's personality is completely inconsistent. In his eyes, loyalty to the emperor is more important than his own life.
"I just hope that Brother Ding can be smarter."
Su Lin stood up. It is meaningless to stay in the Wu family now. If he wants to find Ding Pingzhou, he may have to contact the Temple.
Fortunately, when he was in the underground black market, he caught the Temple master and is now detained in Ding Pingzhou's house.
Through him, we should be able to find the Temple's station in the capital. The people inside must be involved and we can find some clues.
Only by chasing in this way can we find Ding Pingzhou's traces. It is definitely not easy to do it in the shortest time.
We can only hope that Ding Pingzhou has good luck. Even if Su Lin is powerful, he cannot exert 100% of his ability in this situation. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
At least there is a direction, which is hope.
"Brother Su, you should be a friend of Lord Ding, right? Our Wu family asks you to find him. If you need anything, just let me know."
