This brother-in-law is really nice.

Lu Xiao expressed satisfaction with this.

The bleak carriage was huge.

It's like a mobile three-bedroom apartment.

The horses pulling the carts were all rare and fine horses.

I don't know how many times I heard him praise his horse along the way.

In the carriage, Xiao Se and Tang Lian were both pretending to be cool.

All of them put on their own pedestals.

Xiao Se asked calmly.

"You trust us so much even though you've never met us before?"

Tang Lian said coldly, "We don't trust you, we trust him."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Lei Wujie who was driving.

Xiao Se nodded, a rare gesture. "I do agree with that. After all, this guy has no brains, and his martial arts skills are only slightly better. He's definitely not capable of deceiving people."

Tang Lian finally showed a smile.

"Haha, what about you?"

Xiao Se said, "Me? I'll give you two of my best horses to carry your goods, and you still don't believe me?"

Here it comes, here it comes again.

Lu Xiao felt uncomfortable.

Is this the seventeenth time? Or the eighteenth?

His brain is probably broken.

I can't even remember this clearly.

Finally, Lu Xiao couldn't bear it anymore.

"That's enough, you two. Why are you pretending to be masters and playing dumb all the time? Aren't you exhausted?"

Upon hearing this, they both coughed at the same time.

"Ahem~"

Lei Wujie outside also laughed and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, ignore him. He's just a horse dealer. He can't say anything except good horses."

Tang Lian said, "Brother Lei, you haven't yet accepted a disciple, so I don't think you need to be so hasty in calling me Senior Brother."

Lu Xiao said, "No, I quite like this guy. Lei Wujie, it's okay, you can call me that. I recognize you as my junior brother. When you come to Xueyue City in the future, remember to mention my name if anything happens. I'll protect you!"

Lei Wujie was even happier.

"Okay, Second Brother."

In the carriage, the two men, whose emotions were interrupted by Lu Xiao, could no longer maintain their aloofness.

Xiao Se looked at the golden coffin with some curiosity and asked a question that he had been holding back all the way.

"Rumor has it that the golden coffin contains countless riches and martial arts secrets that can dominate the martial arts world. Aren't you curious?"

Tang Lian played with the blade on her fingertips while slowly saying, "Don't be curious. My master has warned us not to open the golden coffin, so I advise you not to be curious either. Countless people have tried to get the golden coffin along the way, but none of them succeeded. People who are too curious will have a bad fate..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, his expression changed instantly.

"Stop, Junior Brother, what are you doing?"

Lu Xiao turned around with an innocent look on his face and said, "I didn't do anything?"

Tang Lian said with a dark face: "What are you doing with your hands?"

Lu Xiao lowered his head and looked at his hands resting on the edge of the golden coffin.

Judging from the posture, it is obvious that they are going to open the coffin.

But he still spoke confidently, "I've listened to you two babble for ages, but there's no conclusion. Why don't you just open it and take a look? We'll know what's inside. There's no need to keep guessing. You guys continue, I'll be right there."

After that, he prepared to exert force.

Come out, Xiao Wu

Snapped!

Lu Xiao was suddenly hit hard on the back of his head, interrupting his spell.

He covered his head and turned to look at Tang Lian.

"Big Brother, what are you doing?"

Tang Lian yelled, "I just said so much, and you didn't hear a word?"

Lu Xiao said, "I heard you say that the Grand Master told you not to open the golden coffin, right?"

Tang Lian said, "Why are you still asking me after hearing what I'm saying? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've achieved a breakthrough."

Lu Xiao said, "Big Brother, you are being unreasonable."

"I'm being unreasonable?" Tang Lian's eyes widened, filled with a sense of impatience. "Junior Brother, I knew you were thick-skinned, but I didn't expect you to be this thick-skinned. How can you have the nerve to say such a thing?"

Lu Xiao said, "Who's so shameless? Senior Brother, we should be reasonable. You can't slander my innocence out of thin air. Grandmaster said you can't open it, but he didn't say I can't. You can't open it, but I can. What's wrong with me?"

Tang Lian was speechless.

"Puff~"

Xiao Se, who was standing by, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lu Xiao continued, "Is there anything wrong? I'll start it then."

After saying this, he put his hand on the coffin again.

Seeing this, Tang Lian knew that she had to bleed.

So he said helplessly.

"A gourd."

Lu Xiao moved his shoulders.

“I opened it!”

Tang Lian gritted her teeth and said, "Two gourds."

Lu Xiao opened his mouth and shouted: "I'll open it on the count of three, one, two"

Shouting and exerting force.

Seeing the cracks in the coffin appear, Tang Lian immediately shouted.

"One jar, one jar will do."

Lu Xiao immediately withdrew his hand: "It would have been better if you had said so earlier. Thank you, Senior Brother."

Goal achieved.

Lu Xiao was very happy.

Tang Lian felt exhausted.

Is he easy?

Not only were we attacked every day along the way.

There is also such an unreliable junior brother around.

When will this day end?

At this time, Xiao Se beside him said with envy.

"I really envy the way you two get along. You're clearly brothers, but your relationship is better than most brothers'."

It seems Xiao Se was thinking of his own brother.

"Hehe." Tang Lian laughed twice in a bad mood.

Xiao Se continued, "I'm warning you. There are too many rumors circulating about the golden coffin. Even Wushuang City is said to be involved. There's no guarantee that experts at the level of Xiaoyao Tianjing will appear in the future. If you hope to hold onto the golden coffin then, it will be nearly impossible. It's best to make plans early."

"Furthermore, this rumor is extremely bizarre. It spread throughout the world in a short period of time. There's a strong possibility that someone is behind this. Be careful."

It's rare for Xiao Se to take the initiative to make suggestions.

Tang Lian said, "You know a lot. It's hard to imagine you're just an ordinary tavern owner."

Xiao Se said, "Opening a tavern requires being well-informed. There's nothing else to worry about. I'm not interested in golden coffins."

"That's best," Tang Lian said. "But thank you for reminding us. We'll be careful. Don't let me know who's behind this, or I'll never let him go."

Xiao Se said, "I'm not trying to attack you. The person behind the scenes is just fanning the flames and isn't directly responsible. Finding them won't be easy."

Tang Lian also knew that Xiao Se was right, so he did not refute it this time.

But Lu Xiao said at this time.

"That's not that difficult. You can figure it out with just a quick guess."

"Guess?"

Tang Lian and Xiao Se shouted at the same time.

"Can you guess one for me?"

Xiao Se was somewhat dissatisfied.

Behind him stood the world's leading intelligence network, Bai Xiao Tang.

Even so, the person behind this incident has not yet been found out.

So he didn't believe Lu Xiao's words at all.

Chapter 38: From Effect to Cause

Not to mention Xiao Se, even Tang Lian didn't think his junior fellow apprentice could guess correctly.

"Junior brother, stop bragging."

Lu Xiao was also unconvinced and said, "Humph, I'm not bragging, but I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me. What if I guess it?"

Xiao Se said confidently, "What do you want? I'm not bragging, but I can get anything in this world, but you have to guess it."

Tang Lian also asked, "Are you trying to trick the last jar of [Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon] out of my hands?"

Lu Xiao said dissatisfiedly, "Don't underestimate me. I don't want your things either. If I guess it, how about you promise me one thing?"

"What's the matter?" they both asked at the same time.

Lu Xiao: "I haven't thought about it yet. Let's put it aside for now. I'll bring it up when I'm ready."

Tang Lian said directly, "Okay, if you can't guess correctly, you have to promise me one thing. I'll tell you the thing now. I want you to stop drinking."

Tang Lian took the word "quit drinking" very seriously.

What a vicious mind.

Lu Xiao looked at Tang Lian with disdain.

Xiao Se then said, "Okay, I agree to your request too. The conditions are the same. However, I haven't decided what I want you to do yet, so I'll just owe you the money for now."

The bet is established.

Lu Xiao was very satisfied. "Okay, then I'll tell you my speculation. If you think I'm wrong, you can refute me at any time."

It is said to be speculation, but in fact it is the result of the cause.

So Lu Xiao knew that he would never lose.

At this moment, Lei Wujie, who was driving outside, suddenly interrupted.

"Second Brother, wait, add me in, I want to participate too."

Lu Xiao nodded: "Okay, then I'll add you. If you lose, you have to promise me one thing."

Unexpectedly, Lei Wujie shook his head and said, "No, Second Brother, I'm on your side. I'm betting on you to win. My intuition tells me you can guess it."

Lu Xiao laughed heartily, "Hahaha, you've got good judgment. Let's change the bet. If I lose, Lei Wujie and I will each owe you one thing. If I win, you'll each owe us one thing. How about that?"
