"You guys don't seem to be in a good situation."
Liu Xiaobei was almost full. After drinking a mouthful of tea, he spoke to the gloomy Chu Mu Xuan.
"It's very bad. The Chu Mu Clan is the number one clan in Chu Xi City. We are members of the Chu Mu Clan, and it looks impressive on the surface. However, ever since Father got into an accident, other people don't even treat us as members of the Chu Mu Clan. Even the other branches of the Chu Mu Clan bully us," Xiao Lun continued.
"Sob sob, it's even worse now. We still have an expert like Master Ming Xuan to take care of us, but now … sob sob!" Xiaobei started crying as she spoke.
"Is the Master Ming Xuan that Xiaobei speaks of the uncle you mentioned?" Liu Xiaobei asked Chu Mu Xuan.
"Yes," she replied.
"I heard from Xiaobei that he is an expert. Is he very powerful?" Liu Xiaobei asked again.
"Of course he is. Master Ming Xuan is an expert in the Muscle Forging stage."
Before Chu Mu Xuan could speak, Xiaobei interrupted.
"What is the Muscle Forging stage? Is it the classification of experts? "
Liu Xiaobei pondered over Xiaobei's words and probed.
"It's the classification of martial artists," Chu Mu Xuan said.
Liu Xiaobei nodded. He somewhat understood. After thinking for a while, he asked Chu Mu Xuan, "Then what's the classification of your skills?"
"I'm not classified," she said with a bitter smile.
"I was wondering why you were so weak!" Liu Xiaobei blurted out.
Liu Xiaobei's words caused Chu Mu and Xuan Er's faces to instantly turn red. Liu Xiaobei then realized that he had said too much. He awkwardly smiled and quickly changed the topic, "When are we going to sell things? I'll take a stroll around Chu Xi City. "
"Yes, let's go deal with the things first." Chu Mu Xuan also said hurriedly. After that, she seemed to think of something again. She turned to Xiaobei and said, "Xiaobei, go to the street outside and rent a car. Wait for us outside."
Liu Xiaobei could tell that she was deliberately sending Xiaobei away. She probably had something to tell Liu Xiaobei.
"Do you want to rent a car? Miss, but Liu Xiaobei doesn't have much money left, "Xiaobei said.
"Don't worry about it. Just do as I say!" Chu Mu Xuan said to Xiaobei.
Xiaobei didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
Liu Xiaobei looked at Chu Mu Xuan quietly, waiting for her to say something to Liu Xiaobei.
"Doomsday, it's like this. If we want to auction the god's skeleton, we have to leave Chu Xi City and go to Mu Lin City."
As Liu Xiaobei expected, Chu Mu Xuan said to Liu Xiaobei.
"What's the reason?" Liu Xiaobei took a sip of tea and said.
"Because the biggest power in Chu Xi City is our Chu Mu family. The auction house in Chu Xi City is also owned by our Chu Mu family. If we go there, Liu Xiaobei will definitely be recognized. So, it's best if we go to the neighboring Mu Lin City. That's the safest way," Chu Mu Xuan said.
Liu Xiaobei understood her intentions. He nodded and said, "Okay, you can arrange it!"
"Xiao Lun, remember, don't mention this to anyone, including Xiaobei," Chu Mu Xuan said to Xiao Lun.
"Yes, sister, Liu Xiaobei understands," Xiao Lun quickly said.
"Then let's go, Doomsday."
She called out to Liu Xiaobei and took the lead to leave.
Liu Xiaobei took another sip of tea and followed. Liu Xiaobei looked around as he walked. It was a small courtyard. After leaving the courtyard, Liu Xiaobei saw an even bigger courtyard. After looking around, Liu Xiaobei understood that Chu Mu Xuan and the others were living in a remote courtyard. This was the main courtyard of the Chu Mu family.
The courtyard looked very big. It was as big as three football fields. Liu Xiaobei could see many buildings in the distance. They looked very grand. Compared to the courtyard that Chu Mu Xuan and the others were living in, it was much more luxurious!
From this, Liu Xiaobei could see that Chu Mu Xuan and the others were also being ostracized.
There were many people dressed as servants walking back and forth in the courtyard. Our corner was the quietest, so of course, no one would pay attention to us!
This was because Chu Mu Xuan only had Xiaobei as her servant.
As we walked out, some servants saw us from afar. However, they didn't greet Chu Mu Xuan. From this, it could be seen that they weren't doing very well.
When we reached the gate, we bumped into two servants. They greeted Chu Mu Xuan and Xiao Lun politely. However, there wasn't much respect on their faces!
Chu Mu Xuan and Xiao Lun seemed to be used to it, so they didn't pay much attention to it.
After we walked out of the gate, we arrived at a bustling street. The street was more than ten zhang wide, and there was an endless flow of horses and carriages!
Liu Xiaobei was familiar with this scene. He had seen it in a movie before.
"Miss, Young Master, over here!" Xiaobei's voice came from the side.
Liu Xiaobei followed the voice and looked over. Xiaobei was standing in front of a horse carriage.
Chu Mu Xuan took the lead and walked over. Liu Xiaobei and Xiao Lun also followed.
"Xiaobei, you should go back and take care of the family!"
Chu Mu Xuan walked to the front of the horse carriage and said to Xiaobei.
"Let Xiaobei come with us. She's just a little girl. She's left alone at home. Sometimes, she gets bullied," said Liu Xiaobei.
Liu Xiaobei hated this kind of master-servant relationship from the bottom of his heart. They were both human, but Liu Xiaobei felt that it was the same as stripping away a person's dignity. Therefore, he felt that Chu Mu 'er's actions made Liu Xiaobei feel uncomfortable.
Liu Xiaobei's words stunned Chu Mu Xuan. After a while, she nodded and said, "Alright."
Then, she said to Xiaobei, "Then you should come with us! Take good care of Master Apocalypse on the way. "
Liu Xiaobei didn't say anything and was the first to get into the horse carriage. Chu Mu Xuan and Xiao Lun followed closely behind. Xiaobei was the last to get in. After she got in, she looked at Liu Xiaobei gratefully. It was obvious that she didn't like being alone at home either.
"Mu Lin City."
Chu Mu Xuan said to the coachman outside the carriage. The horse carriage began to move slowly.
"How far is it?" Liu Xiaobei asked Chu Mu Xuan.
"It's a day's journey. It should be night by the time we get there. However, the auction house receives guests no matter if it's day or night," said Chu Mu Xuan.
Liu Xiaobei nodded and didn't say anything else. He looked outside through the window of the carriage to appreciate this different world …
Liu Xiaobei didn't say anything. The carriage became strangely quiet. No one said anything.
I don't know if it was because the silence was contagious. The less someone spoke, the quieter they became. The four of us sat quietly in the bumpy carriage as if we were strangers.
Liu Xiaobei was looking at the scenery outside. They all lowered their heads and looked like they were thinking about something.
Liu Xiaobei was too lazy to say anything. When he was tired of looking at the scenery, he closed his eyes and rested while waiting for the carriage to reach its destination.
It wasn't until the evening that Chu Mu Xuan said, "We'll arrive at Mu Lin City soon."
Liu Xiaobei nodded to show that he understood.
