Everyone cheered and celebrated yet another victory.
Mou Xuan remained vigilant. He knew that this was just the calm before the storm.
"Don't be too happy too soon," Mou Xuan clapped his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet, and continued, "We haven't reached home yet, so cheer up!"
"Brother Xuan, what should we do now? It's raining so hard and our supplies need to be protected." Chen Yao came to Mou Xuan and asked,
"That old fox Tian Shangren will definitely not let it go..." Mou Xuan glanced at Tian Shangren who was tied up, and his eyes flickered slightly.
"Brother Xuan, what should we do now? It's raining so hard and the supplies need to be protected." Chen Yao came to Mou Xuan's side, worry in her eyes. After all, this batch of supplies is everyone's lifeline, and all the efforts would be wasted if they were damaged by the rain.
Mou Xuan glanced at Tian Shangren, who was tied up like a dumpling, and his eyes flickered slightly.
He knew clearly in his heart that this old guy was definitely up to no good!
Sure enough, the businessman Tian was still determined to steal. He rolled his eyes and came up with a plan.
He shouted at the top of his voice: "Hey! Brothers of the Alliance! Listen, if any of you can help me do some 'little damage' to this batch of supplies, I, Tian, guarantee that there will be plenty of gold bars!"
After these words were spoken, a young man in the league was actually shaken.
The young man's name is Li Ergou. He is usually a bit greedy, but when he heard the word "gold bars", his eyes began to light up.
He secretly glanced at the mountain of supplies and thought: If I can just break something without anyone noticing, wouldn't I be able to get the gold bars?
By then, hehe, luxury cars and beautiful women will be easily obtainable, right?
Inside Li Ergou's heart, two little guys started fighting.
One said, "Ergou, don't be stupid! Our brother Xuan has been very kind to us, you can't do such a wicked thing!" Another said, "What are you afraid of! People die for money, birds die for food! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you miss it, you will lose this store!"
Just when Li Ergou was hesitating, Mou Xuan's sharp eyes swept over him like a radar.
That look seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, making Li Ergou's heart skip a beat.
Mou Xuan walked up to Li Ergou, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Ergou, I know your family is in trouble. But you have to remember that we are brothers. We share happiness and difficulties together! Don't do anything to let your brothers down for a little profit!"
These words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the greed in Li Ergou's heart.
He lowered his head, not daring to look into Mou Xuan's eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Xuan, I... I was wrong! I will never have such thoughts again!"
Seeing that Li Ergou had come to his senses and returned to the right path, other members of the alliance also expressed that they would never betray the alliance and would never betray Brother Xuan!
That scene was even more solemn than taking the oath to join the party!
When Tian the Merchant saw that this trick didn't work, he was so angry that he almost died.
He pointed at Mou Xuan and cursed: "Mou Xuan! You... don't be so proud! Do you think you can stop me like this? I tell you, no way!"
Mou Xuan sneered, walked up to Tian Shangren, squatted down, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Boss Tian, have you forgotten that what I am best at is 'treating others in their own way'?"
After saying that, Mou Xuan exposed the ugly behavior of Tian Shangren who attempted to bribe the alliance members in front of everyone.
"What? This old guy actually wants to bribe us?"
"How shameless! We still treat him as a person!"
"Beat him to death! This kind of scum is a nuisance if we keep him around!"
The members of the alliance were filled with righteous indignation, and each of them wished to eat Tian Shangren alive.
When Tian the merchant saw that he had become a rat crossing the street and everyone was shouting at him, he was so scared that he pissed his pants and ran away crawling.
That miserable look is even more miserable than a dog that has lost its home!
Although the Tian merchants were temporarily driven away, the current dilemma was not resolved.
This horrible weather, with violent storms and thunder and lightning, it's faster than turning the pages of a book.
If this continues, not to mention supplies, even people will be torn apart!
"Brother Xuan, the weather is too bad. We have to think of a solution quickly!" Chen Yao said worriedly.
Mou Xuan frowned. He knew that he couldn't go on like this any longer.
But which route can we take to avoid this terrible weather?
At this moment, the intelligence officer Su, who was in charge of intelligence work, ran over in a hurry, holding a crumpled map in his hand, and said excitedly: "Brother Xuan! I found a way! This road can avoid most of the bad weather, but..."
"But what?" Mou Xuan asked.
"But this road passes through the 'Death Valley', where the terrain is complex, and... and I heard that there are 'unclean' things there..." Intelligence Agent Su's voice became smaller and smaller, and he was obviously filled with fear of this "Death Valley".
"Death Valley"?
Mou Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
He had heard of this place before. It was said that it was shrouded in fog all year round, and nine out of ten people who went in could not get out.
"Brother Xuan, how about... let's change the route? This 'Death Valley' sounds scary..." Transportation expert Feng advised.
Mou Xuan hesitated.
On one side are unknown dangers, and on the other side are imminent difficulties.
He must make a choice as soon as possible!
"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, why should we be afraid of those 'dirty' things?" Mou Xuan slapped his thigh fiercely, his eyes firm, and announced to everyone in a resounding voice, "Let's go to Death Valley!"
Chen Yao walked forward and gently held Mou Xuan's hand. Mou Xuan looked at Chen Yao firmly, and they smiled at each other.
