In fact, the middle-aged man was really testing Xiao Yuhao. They didn't believe what Xiao Yuhao said from the beginning, but they had to look at it, so he deliberately dug a hole here. If Xiao Yuhao really dared to point out on this map If there was a burial site, then they would not have to enter the Gobi Desert at all.
This Xiao Yuhao is definitely a liar.
But if Xiao Yuhao recognizes this fake map.
Then even if they don't want to go in or don't believe it, they still have to go in and look for it.
In fact, the reason why Xiao Yuhao was able to recognize this map was fake. There is a reason too.
The Guangze District militiamen in Xiao Yuhao's hands were developed and trained by Wang Xiao based on the direct lineage from which they would start their careers. Before it is completely formed, it will never be exposed to light, so it needs a fairly secret lair as a base. In order to find such a nest, Wang Xiao took great pains.
Various mountainous areas, no man's land, Gobi desert. Many have been explored.
The results were combined with the actual situation, and they were eliminated one by one, and the Guangming Mountain area was finally chosen! But before choosing Guangzhao Mountain, Wang Xiao once considered the Gobi Desert in Wuma Town as his first choice.
It is precisely because of this that Xiao Yuhao came here in advance and stepped on it carefully. The latter is because construction here is too difficult. There are so many different resources that need to be coordinated. Very easy to expose. There was no way around it, so they changed the area again.
It is also for this reason that Xiao Yuhao understands this Gobi Desert relatively well. So when he looked at the man's map, he knew that it was a fake.
The middle-aged man still had something to say.
"What's wrong? Have you ever been to this area before? Do you know this place so well? Are you going to make up a whole set of lies?"
"Are you still going in with me? You can choose not to go at all!"
The middle-aged man smiled, took out a real map of the Gobi Desert, and handed it to Xiao Yuhao.
"Wait a minute, your brothers, including your lives, are all here."
Xiao Yuhao took a deep breath and pointed at one of the areas.
"Go here first. I'll talk to you when we get there, but I have a request. I have to let my brothers go first. I'll go with you."
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms."
"If you are like this, I will not tell you."
"Do you want us to kill a few from here first?"
The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
It also felt like there was no way the other side would give in.
Xiao Yuhao had no choice but to nod.
In the end, this team did not stay at Wuma Town.
In the afternoon of the same day, we entered the Gobi Desert.
Here there are ups and downs, yellow sand all over the sky, endless as far as the eye can see.
The heat wave hits you everywhere, as if it is burning with blazing fire.
Everyone was surrounded by heat and sweating profusely, as if they were in a sauna room.
After walking for a while, everyone sat down and rested. These armed forces are all tightly wrapped, and their condition at this moment is not very good.
The leader couldn't bear it anymore. He opened his mask and drank water. Xiao Yuhao's eyes kept focusing on this person.
After the man finished drinking, he pointed at Xiao Yuhao.
"I swear to God, if you dare to lie to us, I will chop up all your brothers. Then I will feed you."
Xiao Yuhao glanced at the man but did not speak.
Now, for him, he could only take one step at a time, and it would be impossible to walk from here to the area he pointed to in even two days.
He just closed his eyes and lay on the desert, basking in the sun.
"Who asked you to wrap yourself up so tightly? If you don't wear such thick clothes, you'll feel better, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!..."
The Lord's Mansion of Xiucheng City.
Inside Xu Youzhi’s courtyard house.
Xu Xiu is playing chess with Guo Pixiu.
He moved the chess pieces around with a worried look on his face.
Guo Pixiu frowned.
"Have you considered?"
"What's wrong?"
"That's a horse, not a cart. It has to move day by day, not sideways."
Only then did Xu Xiu react. He sighed, but he was really not interested, and immediately shook his head.
"No more playing, no more playing."
"You are still worried about Wang Xiao."
"Yes."
Xu Xiu's voice was not loud.
"Pixiu, you've been missing for so long, haven't your people responded?"
When Guo Pixiu heard this, he looked around.
"Axiu, what reaction do you want?"
Xu Xiu stared at Guo Pixiu.
"What do you think?"
Guo Pixiu took a deep breath.
"If you want to react, you can definitely react. But now Xiujian and Xiukang special forces are also near the city lord's mansion. If you don't react, it's okay. If you really react, it will definitely be a big reaction. It won't be good then. End it. According to your character, as long as we dare to mess around, no matter whether we win or lose, we will never let go of these brothers in my hands, including me."
The corners of Xu Xiu's mouth twitched slightly.
"Since you want to do it, go for it and win."
"How do you want to win?"
Guo Pixiu is simple and clear.
"If we win from the City Lord's Mansion, there may be a chance. But if we win from Xiucheng, what will we win? The military power is all in the hands of your two brothers. Even if we win from the City Lord's Mansion, what will happen to us? How to deal with the two large armies in Xiucheng?"
Xu Xiu listened to Guo Pixiu's words, thought for a long time, and sighed.
"Then look for opportunities to control them."
"Axiu, this is no child's play. You have to think carefully about whether it is worth doing this. There is no chance of turning back. If you are not careful, the consequences will be disastrous."
"The most important thing now is to maintain a balance and a tacit understanding, and everyone will not get into trouble. If you do this, you will be fine. Then I and my group of people will have no way out. We must do it to the end! And I don't think we should do it now. These are good times. After all, it is not easy for us to do things under the eyes of others. They will definitely be on guard, and it is difficult for us to make sneak attacks. This matter will be difficult to handle. "
"But I'm not willing to accept it! How dare you do this to me."
"Then we can only find a way later. But I just suggest, but if you say, let's do it today. Then do it. Anyway, controlling the city lord's mansion should not be a big problem! But there will definitely be killings! You too Gotta be ready!”
Xu Xiu's eyes flickered, thinking about Guo Pixiu's words.
Just at this moment. Xu Jian came in from outside, carrying a lot of delicious food.
"Axiu! Look what I brought you."
Seeing Xu Jian, Xu Xiu immediately changed her face and pulled Xu Jian back to the room.
Coaxing Xu Jian to drink and chat. The words inside and outside cover the immediate situation outside.
Xu Jian was not on guard against Xu Xiu. And I came here just to appease Xu Xiu and drink and chat with Xu Xiu. So the two of them talked about the situation outside with one sentence and one sentence.
After drinking, Xu Xiu looked helpless.
"Brother, are you trying to break up the marriage between me and Li Xiaoya?"
"This is not a marriage, it's a bad fate. I don't even have you in my heart. Why do you miss this unrequited love? Are you still afraid of not having a woman when you are the dignified Lord of Xiucheng?"
There is something in Xu Xiu's words.
"Have you ever seen a Xiu City Lord like me?"
Xu Jian quickly raised his glass.
"We are all a family, we don't talk about two families, and we are doing this for your own good. You can't blame us. Think about it from another perspective, there are four people in the family, and three of them say you are wrong, do you still insist on your opinion and think you are wrong? Are you right?"
When Xu Xiu heard this, the conversation suddenly changed.
"Brother, do you still remember what happened to Auntie?"
When Xu Jian mentioned his mother, he immediately frowned.
"How could I forget what you said?"
"Then tell me, are Wang Xiao and you kind?"
"There must be!"
"Then what you do now, does it count as repaying kindness with hatred?"
Xu Jian didn't react immediately. He carefully studied Xu Xiu's words for a long time.
"I don't want to retaliate. I just don't want Xiucheng to fall into his hands, and I don't want you to put all your rights in the hands of his cronies. What kind of repayment is this? I don't want to hurt his life at all. I won't hurt him either. His life! And to tell the truth from the bottom of my heart, whenever he needs my help with anything now, I, Xu Jian, will 100% help. But I help him to help him. He must not cross the line or exceed his authority. This It's a bottom line balance! I can't give up the entire Xiucheng in order to repay his kindness, right?"
"Why do you think he will step on me to move up!"
"You can dig out your heart and lungs, but you can't do it like this. Putting so many things in his hands is actually equivalent to forcing him to step on you, you know? Look at people like Tao Tao, Liu Quanhu, and Liu Quanbiao. , let them go, and they left without caring about you at all. This shows that our guess is correct, these people respect you. Only loyalty to Wang Xiao. Why are you still here now? Didn’t you react?”
"But you almost killed Wang Xiao, do you know that?"
When it comes to this, Xu Jian is obviously a little unreasonable.
"Axiu, if I say that we didn't know that Dad would use Zhao Hanxi to attack Wang Xiao, nor did we expect that Zhao Hanxi would shoot Wang Xiao! We just wanted to pull you back from the edge of the cliff, would you believe it? "
"Of course I believe it!"
Xu Xiu is simple and clear.
"How could Dad tell you everything? But there is a saying that if I don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me! It was the absolute support of you and second brother that he dared to do this. Will do this, otherwise, he would not be able to attack Zhao Hanxi. Because he knows that I will definitely fall out with him! If I don’t attack Zhao Hanxi, there will be nothing to do later! Wang Xiao will not be on the line between life and death! You guys Don’t you two think you have no responsibility? Aren’t you afraid that Auntie will blame you a hundred years from now?”
"How could you treat your mother's benefactor like this? Even if he didn't save her, he still saved her a lot of pain and helped her live a long time, right?"
Xu Xiu's words made Xu Jian's heart feel like needles pricking his heart. He didn't know how to answer at all, and his face was filled with guilt. Xu Xiu continued.
"Actually, our dad is the kind of person who can really give up everything and do whatever it takes for the sake of power! Even if he feels a little grateful in his heart for what Wang Xiao has done, in the face of his power, this gratitude will Nothing left!"
"It's entirely possible that he could hide it from you and do more things to harm Wang Xiao. Not just Zhao Hanxi. Including secretly poisoning Wang Xiao!"
"Poison?"
