My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

Chapter 28 If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute.

"Master Wei!"

Lin Mo chased after her.

When Lao Wei turned around and saw it was her, a look of disdain immediately flashed in his eyes:

"Speak your mind, or shut up. Don't waste my time."

She was always involved in any trouble that broke out in the group.

Although in the end, she was always the innocent party.

But... getting involved in trouble is troublesome.

Lin Mo, “…”

So direct!

Lin Mo cleared her throat and handed over the wine flask in her hand:

"This is liquor. Drinking some in the dead of winter can warm you up."

Did she know she had finished her wine?

Old Wei narrowed his eyes dangerously, but he didn't reach for the wine bag:

"What do you want to do? Or rather, what do you want?"

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

Lin Mo grinned, "You're overthinking it. I wasn't trying to please you."

This wine is very cheap. I know you like to have a drink or two, Mr. Wei.

I originally saved this wine for Xu Ping'an and the others to drink, to ward off the cold.

But I noticed that you've been reaching for your wine pouch these past few days, so I knew you were having a drinking spree and that's why I'm giving you some.

"We've got our goal. We don't need any special treatment from Master Wei on the road, we just hope he won't make things difficult for us."

Old Wei glanced at her, took the wine pouch from her hand, and turned to walk forward.

If there's wine, not drinking it would be a disservice to the wine cravings in my stomach.

Liquor is very cheap.

At worst, I'll just give them my money back.

On his way to exile, as long as no one causes him trouble, he won't make things difficult for anyone.

Old Wei casually twisted the cork off the wine cellar, picked it up, and slowly took a sip.

He quickly narrowed his eyes.

Is this shochu?

This is not liquor at all; this liquor is more mellow and fragrant than any liquor he has ever drunk before.

This is more like Fenjiu.

How could such a small town like Baima Town produce such fine wine?

Old Wei shook his head; he had been scammed.

Lin Mo, standing behind him, casually watched his retreating figure, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Imperial tribute wine—those who love wine cannot resist its flavor.

Therefore, from the moment he took the wine flask, he had already stepped into the trap she had laid.

Lin Mo glanced at the busy little black dots ahead, then turned and walked into the dilapidated temple.

Tomorrow, it's time to set off.

There are still many things to do before we set off.

On Xu Wuyan's side.

Upon reaching the avalanche site, they discovered that the road was severely blocked.

Beyond this road, for a distance of twenty feet, all that could be seen was white snow.

The mountain to the left was also covered with thick snow.

Xu Wuyan was afraid that just as the snow on the road was cleared, more snow would roll down from the mountain, and then all their work would be for nothing.

"Why haven't you started working yet?" Qian Zhengchang, who arrived later, asked angrily.

He picked up the whip and lashed it hard against the ground:

"Get to work, hurry up!"

Fearing being beaten by the guards, the others immediately brandished their wooden planks and vigorously shoveled the snow to both sides.

Xu Wuyan remained still, and his men followed suit.

A dark glint flashed in Qian Zhengchang's eyes, and he lashed the whip at Xu Wuyan without hesitation: "I told you to do the work, what are you standing here for?"

Snapped!

Xu Wuyan reached out and grabbed the whip, his eyes coldly fixed on Qian Zhengchang:

"What's the point of doing something blindly without understanding anything?"

Now that we've cleared the road, the snow on the mountain might slide down again, causing an avalanche and burying the road once more. Wouldn't all our efforts have been for nothing?

"What does this have to do with me? You go and do some work for me now!" Qian Zhengchang sneered.

He reached out to pull back the whip that Xu Wuyan had grabbed.

Seeing the whip remain motionless, Qian Zhengchang's expression darkened:

"You want to attack the guards?"

Xu Wuyan released his grip, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Don't try to scare me with the same tactics you use on others. It won't work."

Snapped!

Suddenly, a whip lashed out at Xu Wuyan, sending snowflakes flying. At the same time, Old Wei arrived in front of them.

"What, you want to fight?"

He glanced at them and sneered:

"If you want to fight, then fight already. I'll be your referee."

If I don't fight, then all of you get back to work. If you cause trouble here again, I'll teach you a lesson.

And all of you better behave yourselves. Anyone who dares to cause trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Xu Wuyan looked at Old Wei and pointed towards the mountain:

“The snow on this mountain is too thick. If we don’t clear it, I’m afraid that as soon as we clear the road, the snow will roll down from the mountain and bury the road again.”

Old Wei turned his head and looked up at the mountain.

To be honest, what Xu Wuyan said actually makes some sense.

Qian Zhengchang sneered, "Brother Wei, don't listen to him."

How do we clear the snow from the mountain?

How many people and how much time would that require?

There's absolutely no need to clear the snow on the mountain; we just need to clear the snow on this road so we can get through this section as quickly as possible.

Old Wei thought Qian Zhengchang's method was also good.

The snow on the mountain is difficult to clear; it takes a lot of manpower, effort, and time.

The road is cleared; just hurry up and pass through.

After thinking it through, just as he was about to speak, he saw Xu Wuyan bend down to pick up a stone from the ground and suddenly froze.

What does he want to do?

Before she could even ask, she saw Xu Wuyan weigh the small stone in his hand, then forcefully smash it up the mountain.

Old Wei was stunned!

What is the heir of the Prince of Anping doing?

next second!

Rumble!

The snow that the small stone hit slid straight down, and the sight of the snow sliding down was quite spectacular.

Old Wei opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

"Did you see that?" Xu Wuyan asked coldly.

"The snow on this surface will slide down if there is any slight movement."

Clearing the road is simple, but when a carriage passes by, it will definitely make noise.

"I'm afraid this noise might shake the snow off the mountain. What will we do then?"

"What should we do then?" Old Wei wanted to curse.

Why is there so much trouble on this job?

He said with a stern face, "If we really want to clear the snow off this mountain, do you know how many people and how much time it would take?"

Do you think these pampered people can endure this hardship?

A hint of mockery appeared on Old Wei's face:

"If an avalanche really happens when I pass by, all I can say is that I'll leave it to fate and see who's unlucky enough to be buried alive."

Xu Wuyan's face darkened. So, Lao Wei and the others were gambling with their lives?

He looked up and gazed at the mountains.

After a moment, he looked at Lao Wei with firm eyes:

"Let me try."

"no one!"

"It's alright, I don't need you to give me anything, just myself and these guards from my Xu family." Xu Wuyan interrupted him directly.

Old Wei gave him a deep look and nodded:

"it is good!"

If there were a way, he wouldn't have abandoned people so quickly.

The journey is long, and if he dies along the way, he will be in trouble when he arrives at his destination, where there are not many people.

Xu Wuyan immediately led Xu Ping'an and the others up the mountain.

A dark glint flashed in Qian Zhengchang's eyes as he looked at Lao Wei:

"Are you really going to let him do this?"

"Otherwise what?" Old Wei scoffed, glancing towards the mountain:

"Gambling with so many lives?"

"Give it a try; maybe he really has a solution?"

He turned to look at Qian Zhengchang and said, "If you're worried, you can go up and take a look!"

There's no one on the mountaintop. If he does anything else, I'm at ease keeping an eye on him.

Don't worry, I won't know if anything happens on the mountaintop.

Qian Zhengchang's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he felt that Lao Wei seemed to have seen right through him.

He thought for a moment, then nodded:

"Okay, I'll follow him and see what tricks he's up to."

After saying that, he turned and walked up the mountain.

As for whether Lao Wei would suspect that he had ulterior motives, he couldn't care less.

This is an opportunity.

If he could eliminate Xu Wuyan here, he could return earlier.

Old Wei smirked, then immediately cracked his whip, urging everyone else to get to work and not slack off.

As Xu Wuyan approached the summit, he looked up at the precariously heavy snow covering the peak and gasped in shock.

Pick up a stick, gently poke it forward, and large swaths of snow immediately slide down.

"Master, we can't go any further." Xu Ping'an returned, shaking his head.

"The snow on top is very thick. If it continues to snow heavily, the snow will roll down and form an avalanche."

Xu Wuyan nodded, staring thoughtfully at the snow-capped peaks.

Qian Zhengchang caught up and sneered:

"Wasn't this handed over to you? Why aren't you getting to work on it?"

Xu Wuyan glanced at him and said, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

After saying that, he continued walking forward!

As for Qian Zhengchang, whose face had darkened, he simply ignored him.

"Master!" Xu Ping'an said worriedly.

Xu Wuyan stopped. "Ping An, go down and find Master Wei. Tell him to take his men and evacuate to a safe place."

Xu Ping'an hesitated for a moment, then nodded and walked down the mountain.

Xu Wuyan continued forward, bypassing the front and climbing up the mountain from the side.

Looking at the thick snow, a murderous glint flashed in Qian Zhengchang's eyes.

If he were pushed off from here, Xu Wuyan would surely die.

Qian Zhengchang was itching to make a move.

Looking down from the mountaintop, all you could see was a vast expanse of white.

The mountain is rugged and steep, with very few trees, which are barely visible under the heavy snow.

Xu Wuyan glanced at it once and then started to snowball the problem.

Xu Pinggui and the others were puzzled, but since they couldn't speak, they helped from the sidelines.

But Qian Zhengchang wouldn't be so easy to talk to.

The satire immediately began:

“Xu Wuyan, Brother Wei sent you up here to figure out how to solve the snow problem, not to play with snowballs.”

"Heh, what?"

"You think rolling a snowball will solve the current crisis?"

……

But Xu Wuyan ignored him completely and continued rolling his snowball.

And the snowball grew bigger and bigger in his hands.

Along with it grew Qian Zhengchang's temper.

He really wanted to lash out with the whip.

That damned Xu Wuyan, he actually ignored my existence.

hateful!

"All right!"

Xu Wuyan looked at the large snowball in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips:

"be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed the snowball down the mountain.
