Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law.

Chapter 683: It's endless
"You are really lucky in love. You have won the girl's heart so quickly." After setting up the tent, Nalan Yiren suddenly came to Chen Mo and said something. Her voice was very low, but Chen Mo still heard it.

Chen Mo naturally noticed Lin Xuelan's gaze and looked in her direction. The two of them looked at each other, but Lin Xuelan, who was discovered, did not avoid the gaze. Instead, she showed a touching smile, but her heartbeat quickened.

Chen Mo smiled back, and then said to Nalan Yiren: "Miss Nalan, you are overthinking. They are asking us for something, that's why they are doing this."

Nalan Yiren glanced at Chen Mo a few times and said nothing more.

Not far away, Liang Mu, who was an experienced person, looked back and forth between Lin Xuelan and Nalan Yiren, and then joked to Si Song: "When it comes to attracting men, the saint of your Poison King Valley is not as good as this little girl from the Lin family. Besides, this little girl from the Lin family might even join the battle with the maid."

"She has been filled with hatred since she was a child, which has suppressed her nature and made her dare not ask for anything else. I hope that after this revenge, she can take off her disguise. I also hope that before I die, I can hug my grandson on behalf of my old friend who has passed away." Si Song said.

Before rest.

Lin Xuelan personally brought food and water to Chen Mo and the others, and taking advantage of this gap, Chen Mo also asked about the situation in Yelang Kingdom.

Compared with other countries in the Western Regions, the national strength of Yelang Kingdom was still quite prosperous. It was a powerful country in the Western Regions. The registered population in the country was about 100,000 households and about 600,000 people.

Compared with the Song Dynasty, it is a small country in the true sense.

Chen Mo then asked whether there were any top-grade warriors in Yelang Kingdom.

Lin Xuelan was not quite sure about this. She only knew that the previous king, the late Emperor Xing Huan, was a warrior in the supernatural realm. However, he was defeated in the battle against the Song Dynasty sixty years ago and died early after being unable to recover.

The current king fell ill suddenly more than ten years ago and could not get out of bed. The third prince Xing Yin is now in power in Yelang Kingdom, but he is only at the fourth level.

Then, Lin Xuelan talked about several more famous fourth-grade warriors in the country.

For example, the third prince’s uncle is also the general of the current dynasty.

The third prince’s aunt, Princess Yanyang.

The noble person that Lin Xuelan was looking for when she came to Beijing this time was Princess Yanyang.

It is said that the Lin family was able to know Princess Yanyang because of her husband.

Princess Yanyang's consort Zhongli Ti was a classmate and friend of Lin Xuelan's father Lin Kong. However, Lin Kong was not good at studying and failed the provincial examination, but Zhongli Ti passed the examination and won the third place in the imperial examination. He was then favored by Princess Yanyang and became her consort. They also had a daughter.

Because of this relationship, the Lin family often visited Princess Yanyang's mansion.

But some time ago, Zhongli Ti unfortunately died in the battle with Louwo.

Without Zhongli's favor, Lin Xuelan would not be very confident about going to the capital to seek help from Princess Yanyang.

Chen Mo was not interested in the relationship between the Lin family and Princess Yan Yang.

According to Lin Xuelan, the strongest person in Yelang Kingdom is only of the fourth rank.

Liang Mu asked curiously, "Miss Lin, Xing Yin is the third prince, which means there are two princes before him. Even if the emperor is ill in bed, how could the third prince be in power? Didn't your country appoint a crown prince in advance? Is it the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate princes?"

Lin Xuelan shook her head and said, "The Crown Prince also suffered from the same serious disease as Your Majesty, the Second Prince died young, and the Third Prince is said to be young and intelligent, and has the ability to be a monarch."

"Is it such a coincidence that both the emperor and the prince fell ill suddenly?" Si Song said.

"I'm not sure about this, but there is indeed a rumor circulating among the people that it is related to the third prince." Lin Xuelan said.

As the night deepened, the moon hung high in the sky and the temperature dropped sharply.

Lin Xuelan was a girl, so she naturally felt embarrassed to continue chatting, so she got up and went downstairs to rest.

In the next two days, Lin Xuelan would often appear in front of Chen Mo when she was free, and chat with him casually.

Although they were talking about very ordinary things, Han Yang, Yuzhu and Lin Luo, who knew Lin Xuelan's personality, were all surprised.

Lin Xuelan is a person of few words at home. This time when Lin Kong got into trouble, she said a lot yesterday, not to mention that in front of outsiders, she looked like an iceberg.

But at this moment, something is abnormal.

Even if I wanted to express my gratitude, this is not the way to do it.

Lin Luo knew that his niece was probably in love.

This "Mo Yu" is indeed excellent, but his identity and origin are still unknown.

For the sake of his niece's good point of view, Lin Luo asked Chen Mo how old he was and whether he had a family.

Chen Mo told the truth, saying that he was not only married, but also had several concubines.

Hearing this, although Lin Xuelan did not show anything on her face, she could not hide her disappointment in her heart.

Even Yuzhu was a little surprised.

Nalan Yiren was also a little surprised.

In her opinion, Chen Mo is an old hand at flowers. If the other party is interested in you right now, shouldn't you use sweet words to win him over first?
But in her heart, Nalan Yiren was actually somewhat pleased with Chen Mo's answer.

……

The sun was high in the sky, and there was no cloud in the sky. Beams of scorching light, carrying high temperatures, were scorching the earth. In the desert, apart from Chen Mo's convoy, no one else could be seen.

Unlike the desert outside Yelang, this desert has obvious roads and the yellow sand is relatively solid.

Lin Xuelan's carriage.

"Miss, we still have about a day's journey to Kyoto, and I haven't seen anyone from the Diao family yet."

As soon as Yuzhu finished speaking, a sharp and urgent voice sounded from the front: "Yuzhu, protect the young lady."

It was Han Yang's voice.

A group of dark shadows suddenly emerged from behind the sand dunes in front of the convoy. There were not many of them, only six or seven.

But each of them holds a powerful crossbow.

At the front of the convoy were Han Yang and Lin Luo. When these dark shadows saw Han Yang driving the car, they raised their crossbows and started shooting.

Several arrows shot out from the front, and Han Yang drew his sword to block them.

"咴"

As the mournful neighing of the horse sounded, the horse pulling the cart fell down, and the carriage tilted to one side.

Han Yang leaped up.

"Bang." Lin Luo, who was in the carriage, broke out of the carriage just one second before it fell to the ground.

"call"

Yuzhu saw the carriage in front of her fall down, so she quickly reined in the horses and stopped.

"Miss, stay in the car and don't get off." Yuzhu got out of the car, pulled out the long sword under the car, and became alert.

"Kill them all, leave no one alive." A stern shout was heard, and the black shadow in front quickly drew his sword and rushed towards Yuzhu and the others.

"kill."

The sound was not only heard in the front, but also at the back of the convoy.

Moreover, the black shadows at the back were similar to those in the front, and they surrounded the entire convoy.

Moreover, these people had clear division of labor and moved quickly, and it was obvious that they had been waiting for a long time. These people were also quite capable.

There were three people who attacked Yuzhu. The masked black shadow in the lead swung his sword so hard that Yuzhu's wrist became numb and the sword in her hand almost fell.

In a head-on fight, the long sword is obviously inferior to the broadsword.

This man was slightly stronger than Yuzhu. After his first attack failed, a vicious look flashed in his eyes. He took a step forward, got close to Yuzhu, and attacked again.

Yuzhu's face changed and she quickly dodged to the side. Although she avoided the fatal knife, the opponent had more experience in fighting and kicked her quickly without any mercy.

Yuzhu couldn't hide anymore, and a pale look appeared on her cheeks.

But in the blink of an eye, Yuzhu felt her waist being restrained, and then her whole body was forcibly pulled to the side. On the other hand, the man who kicked at her was sent flying high.

Before she could stand still, she was spun around by a force, and then the long sword in her hand killed two other masked shadows who rushed forward for no reason.

"Protect your young lady." Yuzhu hadn't reacted to what was happening yet. She only felt a masculine breath that made her body feel a little weak, and the hand around her waist loosened. After Chen Mo left a word, he rushed forward without looking back.

From the time the black shadows appeared to the time they ended, it took less than half a quarter of an hour, and the ground was covered with the corpses of these masked black shadows, without a single survivor.

“It’s Diao Qing.”

"And the Diao family's security captain."

"There are also the two brothers Hong Xue and Hong Tian from the Hong Family Martial Arts School."

After Han Yang and Lin Luo recovered from the shock of Chen Mo's attack and the fight to the end, they quickly removed the black cloths from the faces of the corpses one by one and found four familiar faces.

"The Diao family is really willing to spend a lot of money to kill us. Not only did they send Diao Qing in person, who is Diao Hong's brother, they also invited two brothers from the Hong family martial arts school. Both of them are sixth-rank warriors. I heard that they have good cooperation and can fight for several rounds against fifth-rank warriors. They are going to kill us." Lin Luo said with a serious face.

"Grandpa Han, Second Uncle, are you okay?" After getting out of the car, Lin Xuelan hurriedly asked if Lin Luo and Han Yang were okay.

The two shook their heads, and Han Yang said, "Thanks to Master Mo, otherwise, I'm afraid it would have been very dangerous just now."

At this moment, Han Yang was certain in his heart that "Mo Yu" was a fourth-grade master.

"Yes, thanks to Mr. Mo for his help." The shock on Lin Luo's face has not yet dissipated.

Before, Lin Luo had heard Lin Xuelan and others talk about how powerful "Mo Yu" was. After all, he had not seen it with his own eyes, so he had no idea in his mind. He even felt that Lin Xuelan was exaggerating a bit.

Now, having seen Chen Mo take action with his own eyes, he killed three sixth-grade warriors, one seventh-grade warrior, and several entry-grade warriors with a wave of his hand. Lin Luo felt that this was not an exaggeration but the truth before he even saw Chen Mo's movements clearly.

"Thank you again, Mr. Mo, for saving my life." Lin Xuelan bowed to Chen Mo and said sincerely.

"Mr. Mo, thank you." Yuzhu followed closely behind.

The person she just faced was the captain of the Diao family's guards, a seventh-rank warrior.

Although the two were at the same level, the opponent was stronger than her in overall strength. Even if that kick didn't kill her, it would still be very painful when it landed on her body.

"You're welcome. Since I've promised Miss Lin, I won't let anything happen to you." Chen Mo said calmly.

Hearing this, Lin Xuelan suddenly felt valued and her heart trembled.

"Thank you, Mr. Mo." Afterwards, Han Yang and Lin Luo also expressed their gratitude, and asked Nalan Yiren and the others if they were okay.

There were no casualties except the death of a horse.

After a short rest, the group continued on their journey. Han Yang and Lin Luo squeezed into Lin Xuelan's carriage and Si Song's carriage.

As for those corpses, the desert has its own way of digesting them.

After Chen Mo showed his strength again, Han Yang and Lin Luo became more in awe of him.

Especially Lin Luo. When he heard that Chen Mo had a wife and concubines, and more than one concubine, Lin Luo did not approve of Lin Xuelan and Chen Mo being together, even though the matter had not yet been decided.

But this time, Lin Luo's idea changed.

I think it would be nice if Lin Xuelan could become one of Chen Mo's concubines.

After all, Chen Mo was so young, yet he had such strength, so he must have come from an extraordinary background. This made Chen Mo somewhat unattainable in Lin Luo's eyes.
……

A day later, green appeared in Chen Mo and the others' eyes again.

And this is the scope of the capital of Yelang Kingdom.

However, it is still dozens of miles to enter the city.

This time, even in the suburbs, you can see scattered villages everywhere.

There were still few pedestrians on the road.

The only few pedestrians who saw their convoy approaching would actively move out of the way and let Chen Mo and his group go first, for fear of causing trouble.

After getting away from these pedestrians.

"Da da."

Just then, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the official road ahead.

Lin Luo, who was in front of the convoy, saw a woman in a green dress running towards them.

Behind the woman in green skirt, there was a group of masked men in black riding horses.

"Help."

When the woman in the green skirt saw Lin Luo's convoy, she shouted for help, but as soon as she opened her mouth, an arrow shot her from behind. She fell to the ground with blood foam coming out of her mouth.

The group of masked men in black came up and surrounded the woman in the green skirt.

And naturally, they also saw the convoy that Lin Luo was in.

"It says above that no one will be left alive, and the same applies to anyone who sees it."

The leading man in black had a cold light in his eyes. He clamped his legs against the horse's belly, and with a long knife in hand, he rushed towards the convoy where Lin Luo was, along with his men.

"Miss, they seem to be coming towards us!" Yuzhu's face changed.

"Could it be someone from the Diao family again?" Lin Xuelan's face darkened at the window of the carriage. She saw what happened just now with her own eyes.

"Oh no, we saw them committing the crime. They are trying to silence us by killing us." Han Yang, who was in the same car with them, said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Mo" Lin Xuelan subconsciously called out "Mo Yu".

Chen Mo, who was in the car behind, frowned when he saw this scene. This was not going to end yet.

He sighed and got out of the car.

This time it's faster than last time.

In just about three minutes, there were more than a dozen corpses on the road. The horses were circling in a daze, and some stopped beside their owners' bodies with their heads hung.

"Miss, she is still breathing." Yuzhu, who was about to check on the woman in green dress, turned around and said.
