The listener was interested. Before Lin Wenbin finished speaking, the elders looked at each other and sneered tacitly.

After reaching a consensus, naturally there will be no more stay, and the Lin family will be disbanded.

After the person left, Lin Wenbin looked at the woman who left last, stretched out his hand to stop her: "Jingyun, wait a moment."

Lin Jingyun's graceful posture paused, and she turned back to look at Lin Wenbin. She frowned and looked at the ferocious scar on her left eye. Her one-eyed gaze was particularly penetrating.

"Second brother, do you have any advice?"

Lin Wenbo's tone was not polite, and even a little disrespectful, but after hearing this, Lin Wenbin smiled lightly and said: "I know I have wronged you, but we are half brothers and sisters after all."

"Brother and sister?" Lin Wenbo laughed, and his face turned cold instantly: "If the old man hadn't stopped you, I would have killed you long ago."

In just a few sentences, the grudges between the two people were revealed.

Lin Wenbin frowned when the old thing was brought up again, and then smiled lightly: "It's an old thing, what's the point of bringing it up, and now I've also received retribution, haven't I?"

retribution……

Lin Jingyun sneered, noncommittal, and at the same time her expression softened a lot: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Knowing Lin Jingyun's temper, Lin Wenbin said directly: "You also know that the eldest brother has no children. Now that Xueyu has been abandoned and Feiying is young, the future of the Lin family will probably fall on Sheng'er."

"Are you specifically trying to humiliate me?!" Lin Jingyun's face suddenly changed, and her one eye showed a cold light!

Lin Wenbin saw this and waved his hands quickly: "How can that be possible? Although Sheng'er was crippled by Gu Xiao, her talent is still obvious to all. But if Pan'er comes back..."

"Hmph! Lin Wenbin, both Sheng'er and Pan'er are the sons trained by me, Lin Jingyun. How dare you want to sow discord between them?!"

"No, no, no, I don't mean to provoke, I'm just stating the facts. After all... people will always change!"

After Lin Wenbin finished speaking, he smiled meaningfully, then moved his legs. When his figure disappeared around the corner, the frost on Lin Jingyun's face turned into sadness.

"Well, Lin Wenbin, you're starting to play dirty tricks!"

Lin Jingyun gritted her teeth, guessing Lin Wenbin's purpose, but sadly, she had to be fooled.

She knew very well that Lin Sheng's talent was only above average, and there was a clear gap between him and Lin Pan. In addition, he had broken an arm, and his mentality...

Although she didn't show it, how could she, a mother-in-law, not feel that Lin Sheng was jealous of Lin Pan.

The only way to calm Lin Sheng's evil thoughts was to restore her confidence, and Lin Wenbin's idea was to let her steal Gu Xiao's fourth-level combat skills secretly.

Once Lin Sheng acquires this fourth-level combat skill, let alone his status in the Lin family in the future, at least he will not turn against his brothers.

Furthermore...

Lin Jingyun turned her head and looked in the direction of the Lin Family Ancestral Hall, with obvious hatred and impatience on her face. After a long time, she hurriedly left as if she had made up her mind.

As soon as Lin Jingyun left, Lin Wenbin with a sinister smile on his face appeared in a hidden corner.

"Gu Xiao, don't think I will let you go so easily!"

----------------------------------------

Suburban courtyard.

Gu Xiao looked at the house he had lived in for half a month and felt somewhat emotional in his heart, but it only lasted for a moment before he put the letter in his hand on the table and left silently.

"In the Great Xia Dynasty, starting from Yukang City in Moyuan City, it will take four days on horseback. If we drive in a carriage, it will probably take more than seven days..."

Gu Xiao sighed, thought about it again and again, and decided to drive there.

Although it takes more time, the time spent on the road can be used to practice or learn martial arts, which is much better than riding a horse by yourself.

But after arriving at the inn, Gu Xiao was shocked by the cost. It only cost one hundred taels for one way!

"Hey! Young man, don't think I'm trying to trick you. After all, going to the Daxia Dynasty means crossing the border. The cross-border fee alone is thirty taels. This is because the country of Yue is a tributary of the Daxia Dynasty, so it's already cheap...

…”

The coachman's words were reasonable and well-founded, and Gu Xiao had no way to refute, so he had no choice but to pay the money.

"Trouble sets in immediately."

"Okay!"

The whip cracked and the carriage moved forward.

Half a day later, after driving for dozens of miles, we continued on the road after a simple meal.

Three days later, I arrived at the Xia-Vietnam border, paid the entry fee, and was admitted safely.

"Uncle Guo Fu, how far is it from Moyuan City?"

"It depends on how you want to go?"

Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows with curiosity on his face. After Guo Fu's explanation, he learned that there were two roads from the border to Moyuan City.

One is the official road, which is flat and very safe. However, it costs a lot of money to travel and manage this road.

The other one is driving close to the edge of the desert. Not to mention the rugged road, there will definitely be some dangers along the way, such as monsters and beasts, as well as bandits and bandits.

Considering the lack of money, Gu Xiao decisively chose the second route, which also added an extra day to the original journey.

Although they encountered two groups of robbers during this period, firstly, Gu Xiao was not a wealthy owner, and secondly, Gu Xiao was not easy to mess with, so there were no dangers along the way.

In addition to the robbers, they were also attacked by monsters. However, these monsters on the edge were too weak. As soon as Gu Xiao showed his momentum, he was so frightened that he ran away.

"Moyuan City is ahead. I won't send you in, otherwise you will have to pay an extra fee to enter the city."

Hearing what Guo Fu said, Gu Xiao didn't object. He nodded and got out of the car, looking at Moyuan City in front of him.

Gu Xiao's place of origin was a native of Daxia in the Qingzhou territory of the Daxia Dynasty, but this was his first time visiting this borderland.

Different from the prosperous Qingzhou, this Moyuan City is probably close to a dangerous place like Desert. The streets are filled with vicious figures who lick blood from their swords. Even women are obviously fierce and aggressive.

Therefore, people like Gu Xiao, who was fair and clean, had fine skin and tender flesh, were targeted as soon as they entered the city.

"What do you guys have to do with your business?!"

Gu Xiao looked at the few men in front of him. They were all in the ninth level of Body Tempering. He frowned and secretly thought, in Moyuan City, the ninth level of Body Tempering was so worthless and could be seen everywhere.

Gu Xiao was sizing him up, and the leading man was also sizing up Gu Xiao. After sizing him up, he smiled grimly: "Boy, are you from out of town?"

Raising his brows, Gu Xiao chuckled and said, "He's from the Yue Kingdom."

"The country of Yue? That land where birds can't shit?" After the man finished speaking, he laughed, and several people accompanying him also burst into laughter.

This laughter attracted the attention of the people around him, but after seeing the man's face clearly, they all turned pale with fright, covered their faces and hurried away.

This situation made Gu Xiao couldn't help but squint his eyes, and he had some premonition about the man's identity.

"Seeing that you are alone and don't have much money, it would be nice to give you ten taels of silver." After saying this, the man looked at Gu Xiao with contempt.

Sure enough, Gu Xiao's suspicion was confirmed, but...

"Am I only worth ten taels?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Boy, it's rare for me, Cao Hu, to do something good, but you choose to go against me?! Okay! How much do you want to give me?"

"A product like yours doesn't deserve to know my price."

"How brave!"

Cao Hu's expression changed, showing ferociousness, and several people around him rolled up their sleeves and prepared to take action without saying a word.

But as soon as he made a move, his eyes blurred, his lower abdomen hurt, and he collapsed, and Gu Xiao had already put his sword finger at Cao Hu's throat.

Feeling the dangerous breath coming from his throat, Cao Hu was secretly frightened. He glanced at Gu Xiao with a lowered eyebrow and sneered: "I didn't expect it would be a tough one."

Gu Xiao smiled slightly and said "each other, each other", but his eyes were looking at his lower abdomen. To be precise, he was looking at the dagger pressed against his lower abdomen.

It is indeed the safest city in the desert at the mouth of the Chengqing River. Just Cao Hu's skill is enough to explain a lot.

Twitching the corner of his mouth, Gu Xiao withdrew his sword finger first and looked at Cao Hu calmly.

Seeing this, the latter chuckled lightly and took back the dagger.

"Boy, what's your name? What are you doing in Moyuan City?"

Cao Hu's tone was no longer vicious, but rather majestic, which made Gu Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and confirm Cao Hu's identity.

"Replying to Captain Cao, I, Gu Xiao, will enter the desert when you come to Moyuan City."

Gu Xiao's "Captain Cao" made Cao Hu startled again, but it soon turned into appreciation.

"Okay, boy, you are very clever." After Cao Hu finished speaking, he waved to the man who climbed up beside him. Upon seeing this, the latter took out a wooden sign from his arms and handed it to Cao Hu.

"You can think of this thing as an identity card. It's useful... If you die in the desert, you can identify your identity. Keep it."

Cao Hu threw the wooden sign to Gu Xiao. Gu Xiao looked down and found that in addition to the word "desert", there was a series of numbers on the wooden sign.

At the same time, the man next to Cao Hu also took out a booklet and a wolf's hair and wrote Gu Xiao's information.

However, it was just a name and the number on the wooden sign. Now Gu Xiao also understood the meaning of Cao Hu's words.

When Cao Hu saw that the man had finished registering, he waved his hand and was about to turn around and leave. But just as he turned around, he turned back to look at Gu Xiao.

"Boy, you are very skilled, but the desert is far more dangerous than you think. I advise you to find a weapon that can help you die more slowly."

After saying that, Cao Hu left in a swaggering manner, leaving Gu Xiao standing there with a smile on his face.

Cao Hu's words made it sound as if he, Gu Xiao, was bound to die.

However, if you think about it carefully, Cao Hu's words are not unreasonable.

It can be seen from the number on this wooden sign that there are at least tens of thousands of people who come to Moyuan City every year, but the number of people who can successfully come back from the desert is probably less than a thousand.

"A handy weapon..."

Gu Xiao murmured and walked in a random direction.

After some inquiring, Gu Xiao came to an open-air blacksmith shop. There was an endless stream of clanging sounds. But as soon as he got closer, Gu Xiao felt the heat in the air, which made him breathless.
