The two brothers talked for a long time at night, talking about the Beidou Martial Academy, the Dai Viet imperial court, and the warriors in the world.
Lin Tian had access to much more information at Beidou Martial Arts Academy than Lin Xuan who was living in Linmu County. Some secrets opened Lin Xuan's eyes and only added to Lin Xuan's interest in going out.
Lin Mu County, compared to the entire Dai Viet Dynasty, was just a drop in the ocean.
In the past, Lin Xuan had no talent for martial arts and the world was very dangerous. Naturally, he had no intention of going out and seeking adventure. He just wanted to be his third young master of the Lin Family Fort with peace of mind.
Now that Lin Xuan knows the special ability of his stomach, he has become a martial arts monster in one fell swoop. Naturally, his eyes are no longer limited to Linmu County, but are looking across the world, wanting to climb to the top of the martial arts that countless warriors want to reach.
Some legendary figures...such as Nie Qingcang, the emperor of Dai Viet, he wanted to see with his own eyes.
The next morning, under the farewell of everyone in Linjiabao, Lin Xuan left Linjiabao and headed north in a carriage driven by two horses, driven by Lin Gen.
Lin Xuan carried the 360 kilograms of Kuang Lei Dao with him. The load on horseback was too heavy and he could not travel far, so he could only ride in a carriage.
Lin Gen once went to Beidou Martial Arts Academy with Lin Tian, and this time he happened to be Lin Xuan's entourage, driving for Lin Xuan.
The carriage went all the way north, passing through Tianyue County and Jingyue County, and two days later, arrived at Wangyue County.
I spent the night at the inn every day and had a safe journey.
During the night when he spent the night in Wangyue County City, Lin Gen took the map and laid it out in front of Lin Xuan, saying: "Third Young Master, tomorrow we will turn east and pass through the Cirrus Mountains to reach Tianzhou. This will save us two days."
Lin Xuan nodded.
The Cirrus Mountains are erected between Xingzhou and Tianzhou in the north and south. The official roads between the two states all bypass the Cirrus Mountains. The road is flat, but the distance is much longer than crossing the Cirrus Mountains.
Between the Cirrus Mountains, there is a mountain road that passes through the narrowest part of the mountainous area, which can also be passed by horse-drawn carriages.
However, the Cirrus Mountains are high in mountains and densely forested, and many bandits hide in them. This mountain road is often visited by bandits, and there are even passes at critical points on the road, making it very dangerous.
The government carried out numerous encirclement and suppression campaigns. As soon as the officers and soldiers arrived, these bandits ran away and hid in the dense forests of the mountains. When the officers and soldiers retreated, they emerged from the dense forests of the mountains and continued to engage in roadblocking and robbery.
Even after the official sent strong men into the forest to kill the bandits, a new group of bandits would appear. Over time... the official lost interest in managing this mountain road, and it completely became the territory of the bandits.
Without strength, ordinary people would simply not dare to take this path.
Lin Xuan inquired about the bandits in the Juanyun Mountains. There was a Feiyun Village. Only the leader of the village, Lu Yunhu, was an innate powerhouse. According to rumors, he was only at the early stage of innate cultivation. The other two village owners were only half-step innate.
It is impossible for the leader of Feiyun Village to block the road and rob him personally. The chance of encountering him is slim. With Lin Xuan's strength, even if he encounters him, ordinary innates will not be afraid of him. Naturally, he chooses to cross the Cirrus Mountains.
Save two days of travel.
Going east from Wangyue County is Wangyun County, which is already the border of Xingzhou. The further east you go, the less populated you are, and the view becomes increasingly desolate.
Linyun County is a small county in the middle section of the Cirrus Mountains. Less than a hundred miles east of here is Yundong County in Tianzhou. It is the shortest distance from east to west in the Cirrus Mountains and the only way to cross the Cirrus Mountains.
.
At midnight in the afternoon, Lin Xuan arrived at Linyun County.
It was still early, but Lin Gen stopped walking and looked for an inn to stay at.
Although it is less than a hundred miles to cross the Cirrus Mountains, it is a mountain road and takes most of a day. It is not advisable to go after noon, otherwise you will spend the night in the mountains.
Fuyun Inn is located near the east gate of Linyun County. There is a large courtyard at the entrance and a three-story wooden building behind it.
Lin Xuan stepped off the carriage, and a small cloth ball rolled to his feet.
A little girl of four or five years old, as pretty as a jade sculpture, trotted over after the ball.
"What a beautiful little girl!"
Lin Xuan praised him, bent down to pick up the cloth ball, and handed it over.
The little girl looked at Lin Xuan with wide eyes. An unfamiliar face made her hesitate.
However, this strange face was very good-looking. The little girl didn't hesitate for long before she took the ball and said crisply: "Thank you, big brother."
A pretty young woman walked over quickly, took the little girl's hand, and said: "The guest is here to stay at the hotel, please come in quickly."
Lin Xuan looked at the girl and said, "Are you the owner of the inn?"
The young woman nodded: "Yes! My husband opened this inn. The bandits on the mountain have been very aggressive recently. It's not that some large caravans passed by. There are usually very few guests. Today, there are no caravans checking in. The inn is quiet.
, guests can stay wherever they want.”
"good."
Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Your daughter is so cute."
The innkeeper's wife laughed happily and said, "Thank you, sir. She is more lovable. Giving birth to my daughter is the greatest achievement of my life."
Lin Cheng had already tied up his horse and walked over. Lin Xuan nodded to the innkeeper's wife, turned around and walked inside.
"Goodbye, big brother." The little girl waved to Lin Xuan, smiled with her eyes bent, and showed her snow-white teeth.
Lin Xuan turned around, smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Goodbye, little sister."
When we entered the inn, there was only one person in the shop. He was a man in his early thirties. Judging from his appearance, he must be the owner of the inn.
He had already seen Lin Xuan and Lin Gen in the courtyard, standing by the door waiting, and said: "Do you want to stay in the hotel? Our hotel has good rooms."
Lin Xuandao: "Come to two quieter rooms."
The innkeeper said happily: "Okay, the two rooms near the backyard are very quiet, and they cost two taels of silver a day."
Lin Xuan paid four taels of silver and said, "Prepare the food for the horse. Later, I will bring two portions of your good wine and food to the room and settle the bill together."
The innkeeper collected the money and said loudly: "Xiao Qiu, come out and take the guests to room No. 1 and No. 2 of Chunzi."
Soon a boy came running from the backyard and led Lin Xuan and Lin Gen there.
When we got to the room, the environment was indeed elegant and quiet. Rooms like this would be very popular elsewhere. Unfortunately, it was too close to Juanyun Mountain and there were too few people coming and going, so Lin Xuancai met Lin Xuancai as soon as he arrived.
Soon, the store brought food and wine, and Lin Xuan and Lin Gen sat at the same table and enjoyed them together.
After finishing the food and wine, I faintly heard crying coming from the front.
Lin Xuan's hearing was much better than that of ordinary people. When he listened carefully, he looked surprised. The cry seemed to be that of the innkeeper's wife, which was very sad and painful.
What happened?
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's go and have a look in front."
The two of them left the room and headed to the front yard. The further they went, the louder the crying became.
Lin Gen also recognized the voice of the innkeeper's wife and said in surprise: "You were fine just now. What happened? Why are you crying so miserably?"
The two of them involuntarily quickened their pace.
