Chapter 235 Pirates
Wei Hongmian was worried for a few days after Bai Jingzhi and his friends left.
Now that they were the only ones here, she felt a little unsure.
There are only a dozen people including the eldest branch of the Bai family, the Zhou family, the mother and son of the Tie family, Bai Yuchan, and Wei Hongmian's aunt and nephew.
Hua Kezhen was also here. He fiddled with a few pieces of paper every day and didn't talk to them.
He was a weird guy who never joked with others. He always found a place to study those pieces of paper alone.
Among them, only Bai Yuchan has good kung fu. Zhou Wen and his son and the eldest son of Mr. Bai have some basic kung fu.
The rest are the old, weak, sick and disabled, or the young and strong who only have brute force.
Wei Hongmian's eyelids were twitching, and he always felt that something was going to happen.
"Mianmian, you and Meidong will be in charge of cooking, and the rest of us will just build the houses. Jingzhi said we should just build three simple wooden houses first, and then make other plans in the spring."
Old Mrs. Bai is now much calmer in temper and is kind to her two daughters-in-law.
Before leaving, Bai Zhao had already chosen a place and specifically told them to build a small two-story building.
It is winter now, and the place they chose is not low in terrain.
But the climate is not right this year and it is very dry here.
The water level of the Shilan River has dropped a lot.
They also made assumptions when they chose this place.
Especially Bai Zhao, he was an engineer in his original world and he was an expert in site selection.
This place was actually chosen by Bai Zhao.
Bai Jingzhi wanted to go further south, as that was the center of Wujiyuan and it would be convenient to go everywhere.
This side is slightly north, close to the Shilan River, and also convenient for entering the sea.
Each has its own advantages. If you want long-term development, it is naturally best to live near water.
The southern part of Wujiyuan is mountainous, while the northern part is plain.
Bai Jingzhi had not had time to check the geology of Wujiyuan, and now he had to go to exchange food and people, and the matter was delayed again.
Before leaving, Bai Zhao selected locations for the three houses, and it was up to Boss Bai to decide what they would look like.
In order to take care of each other, three adjacent two-story buildings were built.
The wood was cut and dragged back from the northern mountains a few days ago when there were many people around.
The materials are now ready, and Boss Bai and his second son work together to process the wood.
"Mom, tell my brother that as long as it's strong, it doesn't matter how beautiful it looks. We'll start firing the kiln in the spring and make blue bricks, and then we'll build a big blue brick house."
Wei Hongmian mentioned a few things to Old Lady Bai, and with Old Lady Bai, the mother, stepping forward, Old Lady Bai would naturally speed up.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
On the third day after Bai Jingzhi and his friends left, a group of uninvited guests came to Wujiyuan.
Their first house was almost completed, with two floors, with the lower floor used for storage and the upper floors for living.
A room is separated on the lower floor for cooking and heating, and you can rest on the lower floor during the day.
"Well, we can finally get some good sleep."
Xiao Wang took off the cloth on her head and wiped her face.
Although everyone was tired, the smiles on their faces came from the heart.
"The house is now built. We can squeeze into this one tonight. It's better than freezing outside."
Old Lady Bai patted her lower back and said, "Don't worry about the remaining two. You can wait a while. We can slowly pack them up and they will be completed within ten days."
"Shh, there's some noise outside, I'll go check it out." Bai Yuchan was the first to notice something was wrong, and everyone quickly fell silent.
The rest of the people looked at each other and started to feel uneasy.
"Cangzhi, come with me and help Miss Bai." Boss Bai was lying on a pile of dead branches and directly instructed his eldest son.
The eldest son Bai and his second son Bai Langzhi are the main workers these days, and they are the best at carpentry.
Naturally, the father and son were the most tired.
Bai Cangzhi practiced martial arts and had a lot of strength. After building the house, he looked like nothing happened.
"Hey, Cangzhi, don't hold Yuchan back. Find out what's going on and come back to tell us."
Wei Hongmian called Bai Cangzhi and gave him some special instructions.
She knew the personalities of her two nephews. They had never been to school and had never experienced any storms, so they didn't use their brains when encountering problems.
Wei Hongmian pressed the solar lamp into his hand and said, "Be careful."
Bai Cangzhi held the mace in his hand, "Aunt San, I don't have any hands to hold it. It's not dark outside yet, so I can see clearly."
After saying that he ran away.
"If you trust me, why don't you go with me and take a look." Hua Kezhen in the corner opened his eyes and volunteered to go out.
Wei Hongmian looked at him steadily, then smiled, "How can I not believe it! Brother Zhao said that when he comes back, he will have something good to show you."
Hua Kezhen's eyes flickered, and she put away her previous thoughts. She grabbed the solar lamp and went out to help.
He had been in contact with Bai Zhao for a few days, and found that this man really had some ideas and thoughts, which sometimes gave him epiphanies.
I wanted to leave, but was hooked by these things.
Hua Kezhen patted his head vigorously and said, "Well, there is still a chance. Let's help them get through this difficult time first."
Bai Yuchan did not go far. She stood in front of the wooden house with a sword in her hand.
"This place is occupied. You should step back, or you will blame me for being ruthless."
Her hand was tightly gripping the hilt of the sword, her face stern.
She also studied under Wuguishan. Her martial arts were inferior to those of her fellow junior sisters, and she was proficient in formations.
It’s a pity that we don’t have the conditions to set up a formation now, otherwise these three hundred people could be easily eliminated.
"We have taken a fancy to this place. You can either leave or stay and serve us." There were about 300 refugees on the opposite side, and the one who spoke should be the leader of this team.
The man was dressed neatly, had a fair face and no beard, and although he looked young, he was talking nonsense.
"Looking for death!" Bai Yuchan swung her sword and instantly appeared in their team, then quickly returned to her original place.
In the team of 300 people, more than ten people in the front had already fallen, and they were killed by one sword.
"Boss, how did she do it?" The lackey next to the leader looked terrified, shivering at the person lying on the ground.
"The woman was too fast. I didn't see clearly." The leader lowered his voice, "Maybe it was just a coincidence. We were not prepared."
"Everyone cheer up and avenge our dead brothers. She is alone, let's surround her, she can't kill us all." The leader shouted loudly.
Bai Yuchan looked at it and felt more and more that something was wrong.
These people have dark skin and are all strong and healthy, and they don't look like refugees who have been starving for half a year.
"You didn't stay at sea, but went ashore to burn, kill and plunder."
Bai Yuchan's cold words threw the people on the opposite side into disarray.
"It seems I guessed it right."
Bai Yuchan's sword tip gently scratched the ground, "Let me guess your identities again. Could it be that you are the group that robbed the Yu family's ship?"
"Are you from Nanzhen? The second wife of the Yu family?" The leader's face darkened. "We must eradicate the roots this time."
"I am not Yu Er Niang. But since you are here, I will avenge Yu Er Niang."
Just as Bai Yuchan finished her harsh words, the leader threw something at her, "Go."
