Chapter 240 Different Treatment
The news from the Shen family soon reached Lin Mo.
After hearing this, Lin Mo just smiled and didn't take it to heart.
She turned her head to look at Xu Wuyan, "Do you think they are pretending, or are they really arguing?"
"Whether they quarrel for real or not, it doesn't matter to us," Xu Wuyan raised his eyebrows and curled up the corners of his mouth at the same time.
He was ready for them to come to him.
There is not much difference between packing one more or one less.
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "You're right, it really doesn't matter."
Xu Wuyan stretched himself and said, "It's fine if she doesn't play tricks. If she does, I'll make her regret it."
He likes people who seek death.
Lin Mo turned her head and looked back at the Shen family's carriage, and her eyes did not miss Shen Zhixuan who was walking with his head down in the crowd.
The distance was a bit far, and she couldn't see the expression on Shen Zhixuan's face at the moment.
However, I think I'm mostly depressed.
Xu Wuyan reached out and took her hand, "Madam, I don't like you looking at other men. If you want to look, look at me! My face is more attractive!"
Lin Mo turned around and rolled her eyes:
"Honestly, Old Xu, you are becoming more and more shameless.
I just want to see Shen Zhixuan's expression at this moment to see if I can find anything!"
So, this guy, how can you be so shameless?
"Then did you see anything?" Xu Wuyan raised the corner of his mouth:
"People hide their thoughts. No matter how hard you try, you won't see the side of them that you don't want to see."
Lin Mo agreed with this.
Disdain, "It's so far away, I just looked lonely, are you satisfied?"
Thinking that a cornered dog will eventually jump over the wall, Lin Mo left Xu Wuyanchao and walked towards Xu Xianyu and the others.
She had to remind them to be more careful and not be fooled.
Looking at Lin Mo in the crowd, a smile flashed across Xu Wuyan's eyes, then disappeared, replaced by a deep look.
Shen family, it’s almost done.
The next two days were quiet.
Apart from the occasional quarrels in the Shen family, everything else was as normal as could be.
Knowing that they were almost at Mocheng, and with spring coming, everyone felt much more relaxed and no longer had the previous sense of urgency.
Even Old Wei seemed much more easygoing and no longer forced them to continue on their journey.
But the further north they went, the worse the living conditions became.
It’s called an inn, but it’s just a dilapidated house.
The inn consists of a room and a kitchen. How can so many people live there?
Once the police officer stops, there's nothing left.
So they spent most of this time camping and sleeping in the wild.
Fortunately, it hasn’t rained in the past few days, so we can burn a fire in the wild to get through the night.
But the further they walked, the gloomier their faces became because of the barrenness of the land, the harsh environment, and the numbness on the faces of the people in this area.
When people first saw the large patches on the clothes they were wearing, many of them laughed out loud.
But when they saw that almost everyone had patches on their clothes, no one could laugh anymore.
In this area, you can tell whether the living conditions are good or not by looking at the patches on the clothes.
The fewer patches, the better off the family.
On the contrary, if the clothes are covered with thick patches, you can tell how poor the family situation is.
Repression became the main theme.
poverty!
Unimaginable poverty.
The depression was like a heavy cloud, hanging over the sky above everyone's heads.
So, this is the life they will live from now on?
Thinking of this, most people lost interest in talking.
Everyone is thinking about their own affairs and the future.
At this time, Xu Wuyan found Lao Wei.
As soon as Old Wei saw him, he turned around and wanted to leave. There was nothing he could do. Every time Xu Wuyan came to see him, it was something bad.
"Master Wei, am I that scary?" Xu Wuyan sighed.
Just walk away when you see him. It's very discouraging, okay?
Lao Wei stopped and turned to look at him with disdain in his eyes:
"Every time you come to see me, something bad happens.
Don’t say anything now, and don’t tell me anything. I don’t want to know anything.”
There are only twenty days left. Can you let him complete the task well and then return to Beijing?
These are all troublemakers. Don't think you don't know what they have done.
I just don't care!
As long as it doesn't affect his work, it won't be his business even if he pokes a hole in the sky.
Xu Wuyan shrugged. "Then I won't say anything. If something goes wrong, don't blame me for not warning you."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Old Wei was depressed.
He gritted his teeth and glared at Xu Wuyan's back, "Tell me, I owe you this."
snort!
Are you sure of yourself?
over thinking!
Xu Wuyan turned around, the corners of his mouth curled up:
"Have you received the news? Beichen soldiers are disguised as refugees, burning, killing, and looting in the area around Mocheng? That's why you haven't been in a hurry to travel recently. Are you planning to wait until General Song has subdued these Beichen people before rushing to Mocheng?"
Upon hearing this, Old Wei's face darkened.
He naturally knew that Xu Wuyan had his sources of information, so he didn't find it strange that Xu Wuyan knew these things.
Old Wei glanced at him calmly, "Since you know, why bother saying it?"
After saying that, Lao Wei looked forward and snorted coldly:
"People like them are powerless and will die in Mo City. It's not bad to die later and eat more food for a few days."
Xu Wuyan didn't respond to him. Lao Wei was a pretty good person.
If you were that kind of cruel person, you would have been urged to move on.
After all, they didn't care about the lives of these people who were exiled.
Just arrive on time.
When you get there, whether you are dead or alive has nothing to do with him.
Xu Wuyan shook his head. "Master Wei, your idea is quite good, but you can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. You have to face it eventually. And you don't have much time left, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense and just say what you want to tell me. Don't try to be secretive with me. I won't buy it." Old Wei looked at him with disdain.
As soon as he saw Xu Wuyan's expression, he knew that this kid was not holding his fart well.
Xu Wuyan was depressed.
When his wife came, Lao Wei agreed to her request without saying a word.
He came to talk to him in person, but was insulted like this, and he looked reluctant.
Different treatment!
But you can’t be jealous of your own wife!
Xu Wuyan calmed down his emotions and said seriously:
"Mocheng has been abandoned. General Shen's men have withdrawn from Mocheng, so it's in chaos now. I'm afraid those of us who arrive in Mocheng won't survive more than three days."
"That's others, but definitely not you or your Shen family." Old Wei glanced at him with contempt.
Don't think you don't know who he is?
How could Xu Wuyan not have any arrangements?
He knows the information so clearly, I'm afraid his people have already arrived in Mo City to make arrangements.
Although he thought so in his heart, Lao Wei did not say it out loud.
He just frowned, "Is your news true?"
Abandoned Mocheng?
Wouldn't that mean that Daye's north gate would be left to be trampled by Beichen soldiers?
Court, what's going on?
"Absolutely true," Xu Wuyan nodded.
"The news hasn't spread yet, but it will soon. After my people received the news, they killed several horses to bring it to me."
"What's the point of you telling me this?" Old Wei looked at him steadily.
He didn't believe that Xu Wuyan would tell him about this for no reason.
This guy must be up to something bad.
Xu Wuyan nodded, "Yes, I do have a favor I'd like to ask Master Wei for help."
“No help!”
Old Wei refused without even thinking.
Just kidding, this guy is not easy to help.
He didn't want to risk his life here, he wanted to return to the capital.
Anyway, as long as I send them to Mo City, it doesn’t matter to me whether they live or die. I just need to complete the task.
No matter what, he doesn't want to care about anything.
Xu Wuyan was speechless.
Before I even told him what I wanted him to do for me, he refused outright.
Xu Wuyan took a deep breath.
Different treatment, second time!
Xu Wuyan coughed lightly and said, "Master Wei, this favor is really small. It will only take up one more day of your time. Really!"
Spend one more day and still say you are busy?
Old Wei glanced at him and said, "I don't believe you."
"Master Wei, tell me, what do you want in exchange for agreeing to do me a favor?" Xu Wuyan simply gave up and stated his purpose directly.
Change route.
He needs Lao Wei to take his men to take a detour.
Old Wei squinted his eyes and looked at him carefully. "What on earth are you planning?"
Xu Wuyan shook his head, “I can’t tell you about this, Master Wei, but I can guarantee that there will be no danger, it will just take an extra day.
And I can assure you that after arriving in Mo City, I will do my best to protect the people here.
Of course, except for those who are against us!"
Old Wei didn't say anything.
But his eyes were always fixed on Xu Wuyan.
If you change the route from here, you must pass through Heifeng Town where Heifeng Mountain is located.
Does Xu Wuyan want to go to Heifeng Town?
Why did he want to go to Black Peak Town? What was so special about Black Peak Town?
Lao Wei couldn't figure it out, but he didn't want to agree to Xu Wuyan because changing the route meant increasing time and also increasing risks.
No one knows whether that road will be safe.
Seeing that Old Wei didn't say anything, Xu Wuyan didn't press him any further:
"Master Wei, the road you originally planned to take may not be safe. If you change the route, I can guarantee your safety.
There is still time for you to think about it carefully."
After saying that, he nodded to Lao Wei and turned to walk towards Lin Mo.
Old Wei stood there motionless until Xiao Liuzi came over.
"Brother Wei, what were you talking about with the young master of the Xu family just now?" Xiao Liuzi asked curiously.
Old Wei glanced at Xiao Liuzi, then looked elsewhere:
"Do you think Xu Wuyan's words are credible?"
Xiao Liuzi was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously, "It's credible!"
"Yeah, I understand!"
Looking at Lao Wei leaving, Xiao Liuzi was stunned!
Brother Wei just asked himself a question and left, what happened?
Are you sure you don't want to say a few more words?
"Brother Wei..."
