Chapter 329: One wave has not yet subsided, another wave rises
There was silence at the scene.
After a while, many people cheered.
Xu Pingan and others stepped forward excitedly, "Master Lin Shuo, this is great! Not bad! You've made a lot of progress."
"Yes, it's good. It's okay." Xu Pinggui also looked admiring.
Lin Shuo touched his nose embarrassedly and said, "It was just luck.
In a real fight, I can't beat him. I just took advantage of it, Uncle Dapeng taught me that."
Lin Shuo pushed Xu Dapeng out.
If they really fought, he had only learned martial arts for a short time and would definitely not be the opponent's match.
But he was very strong, so he could find a loophole, that is, take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, use the opponent's arrogance, and defeat him in one move.
So, he kept dodging at the beginning, just to deliberately provoke the other party's anger.
It was all for this unexpected punch.
"Luck is also part of strength, so don't be modest." Xu Ping'an smiled.
Lin Mo on the side shook his head, "Okay, stop praising him, he's still a child."
He looked at Lin Shuo seriously and said, "Your victory was just a fluke, so you must not be arrogant or complacent. Do you understand?"
Once you become arrogant and complacent, this is how your life will be.
Lin Shuo nodded seriously, "Sister, I understand."
On the other side, Lao Wei also began to urge them to enter the city.
This time, no one stopped them from entering the city.
Everyone finally entered the city as they wished.
But after entering the city, everyone was shocked by what they saw.
Is this the largest city in this area?
Disappointment spread among the team.
"Oh my god, is this Mocheng? It's worse than a town."
"It's really not as good as it is. The city is so dilapidated, so the village must be even worse. Does it have tiles and walls?"
"Woo, woo, I want to go back to the capital!"
…
Lin Mo sighed silently in his heart.
She knew that the environment in Mo City was very bad before coming here, but she didn't expect it to be this bad.
Not only are the houses in disrepair, but even the streets are full of potholes.
This is the largest city in the North, worthy of its reputation as a bitterly cold place.
Xu Xianyu walked over and said, "Sister-in-law, it's like this in the city, but in the countryside..."
Her voice was filled with confusion about the future.
"It will only get worse." Lin Mo said bluntly.
And there is no worst, only worse.
Xu Xianyu looked at Lin Mo in surprise. Why did she feel that her sister-in-law seemed so calm?
"Aren't you worried, sister-in-law?
Is this environment so much worse than the capital city?"
Lin Mo shook her head. "No matter how bad it is, it's still better than on the road. At least there are tiles to protect us from the wind and rain."
Xu Xianyu was stunned. What his sister-in-law said seemed to be correct.
"Having a roof to shelter from the wind is enough. People here are more worried about how to survive." Lin Mo said with a grim expression.
Everyone knows what the journey has been like.
So the biggest problem is to survive.
Xu Xianyu was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly, "Sister-in-law, without you, I'm afraid we would be miserable!"
"No." Lin Mo shook his head, "Because you have a good brother, he won't ignore you."
So even without me, the Xu family will live well, just like in the previous life.
To them, I am dispensable.
"No, it's different." Xu Xianyu shook his head, disapproving.
"As for my brother, he might have enough food and drink, but he wouldn't live such a luxurious life.
So, sister-in-law, thank you for coming to our home. You make our home feel more like home.”
Lin Mo was stunned.
At this moment, Lao Wei took them to stop at the square in the city center.
There are eight dilapidated arenas around the square. The arenas, eroded by the traces of time and stained with blood, look extremely desolate.
"It's getting late. It's too late to send you to your destination tonight, so just rest here tonight!"
As soon as he said this, everyone started talking.
"Master Wei, are you kidding? This place is in the city, but there's no water or fire. How are we going to get through tonight?"
"That's right, how are you staying here tonight, Master Wei?"
"I feel it's better to leave the city and live in the wild. At least I can find firewood to make a fire and cook."
…
Old Wei's face looked very unhappy, and he hit the ground hard with the whip in his hand.
The crisp sound of the whip was particularly harsh.
His face was full of anger, “Why do you have so many opinions?
I told you to rest wherever you want, and if you keep talking nonsense I'll beat you to death."
Everyone was shocked and dared not speak anymore.
Seeing them quiet down, Lao Wei's expression improved a little.
"Don't worry, you won't starve, and you won't freeze to death.
I have asked someone to buy some buns. I will go to bed after eating them.
As for the issue of making a fire, it’s already late, you won’t freeze to death if you don’t make a fire.
This is the arrangement for tonight. If anyone dares to say another word, I will beat him to death!"
Who dares to object at this time?
At least the food problem is solved. As for sleeping, it’s only one night and I can get through it. It’s definitely not a cold enough to kill me.
Soon everyone found a place to stay for the night.
By the time we settled down, it was completely dark.
In the darkness, there was a constant chattering sound.
Soon, a brazier was lit in the middle of the square.
The faint light of the fire dispelled the dark silence.
Looking at the fire, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the flame is weak, it can give people infinite power.
The brazier was lit by Lin Mo.
They have a baby here and they need to heat up goat milk for the child, but they can't do it without fire.
As for the firewood, they had previously placed it on the roof of the carriage.
This will come in handy.
As the fire in the brazier was lit, the unique aroma of goat milk began to spread in the night sky.
Many people sniffed and it smelled so good.
Hunger spread throughout their bodies.
Everyone stared at Lin Mo who was heating milk.
Although everyone was greedy, no one dared to speak.
Only after arriving in Mocheng did they realize how cruel things were.
Therefore, the strength of the Xu family is also beneficial to them.
At least we have the friendship of colleagues. If I really encounter problems and ask them for help, they might even help me because we are in the same industry.
Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long. Soon Xiao Liuzi came back with the bun shop owner carrying buns.
The hot vegetable buns made everyone cheer.
Two per person, everyone was satisfied.
Soon, the scene returned to calm and the night gradually deepened.
After feeding the child, coaxing him to sleep, and putting him back in the carriage, Lin Mo yawned.
She was exhausted after the day.
Only after she calmed down did she have time to think about Xu Wuyan.
They have entered the city, why hasn't Lao Xu appeared yet?
She called Xu Ping'an and asked about the situation.
There has been no news from Old Xu, and she is worried!
Now that we are in the city, it is easy to find out the news.
"Madam, the young master has left the city." Xu Ping'an lowered his head:
"This is the news from Xu Feng."
"Did they say where he went?" Lin Mo frowned. Old Xu was not the kind of person who would act impulsively.
How could he leave the city at this critical moment without any prior notification? This is too abnormal.
Xu Pingan shook his head, "Xu Feng's letter didn't say that.
However, the young master took the risk of leaving at this time, it must be because this matter is very important."
Lin Mo naturally knew this, but was just a little worried.
After thinking about it, Lin Mo didn't take it to heart.
Old Xu is quite skilled in martial arts, and the person who plotted against him would surely suffer a bad end, so there was no need for her to feel uneasy about this.
After thinking it through, she asked Xu Ping'an to go and rest first, while she walked towards Xu Xianyu and the others alone.
After arriving in Mocheng, Xu Ping'an and others consciously kept a distance from them.
After talking to Xu Xianyu for a few words, Lin Mo closed his eyes and prepared to go to sleep.
There was a lot going on today and she was already tired.
At this time, faint snoring sounds could be heard from all around.
But at this moment, hurried footsteps were heard in the distance.
And it sounds like a lot of people are coming this way.
Lin Mo opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the sound.
Fire dragon!
A fire dragon made of torches is moving towards this side.
On this side, many people were awakened and started whispering to each other.
Does this mean one crisis after another?
Lin Mo slowly stood up from the ground, and at this moment, these people had rushed in front of them.
The torches lit up the huge square.
As soon as these people arrived, the one in the front stood up and waved:
"Surround them all, quickly!"
