One year brought a great drought, the next year floods, and then, in a blink, a plague.
The Xu family fled from the north to the south, and then from the south back to the north.
Before...
"Look, are the weapons in the hands of those savages our weapons?" A young man with good eyesight quickly discovered that the weapon wielded by a cannibal on the shore was very similar to his weapon!
"Let me see... Isn't that knife Master Duan's? Master Duan, please look!" These exclamations immediately called all the martial artists to the deck, and then they all found that their lost weapons were all on the shore.
"Quick, quick, turn around and go ashore!!" I don't know who shouted first, the bow of the boat quickly turned around and slowly headed towards the shore of the Cannibal Island.
At this time, the cannibals on the Cannibal Island also discovered the martial artists' boat. They gathered on the beach, showing ferocious expressions in the direction of the big ship and making low roars from their mouths, as if warning these uninvited guests not to approach their territory.
As the ship drew closer, the atmosphere between the two sides grew tense. The martial artists clutched their newly found weapons, ready for a potential clash. Meanwhile, the cannibals stood in a line, staring intently at the ship, as if awaiting a fight.
When the boat finally docked, neither side took immediate action. A young cannibal stepped forward, pointed his finger at the martial artists on the boat, and uttered a series of strange noises. The martial artists, however, were afraid to disembark, fearing they would fall into the cannibal's trap.
At this moment, a martial arts master stepped forward and said, "Everyone, let me go and check out the situation first. If we can resolve it peacefully, that would be great. If not, we can attack together." Everyone nodded in agreement. So, the master carefully got off the boat and walked towards the cannibals.
The cannibals became alert when they saw someone disembarking, but they didn't attack immediately. The master walked to a place not far from the cannibals and stopped. Then he bowed and said, "I don't know if you can understand what we are saying. May I ask where the weapons in your hands came from?"
The cannibal boy looked at the master with a hint of doubt in his eyes. After a moment, he licked his lips and reached out to touch the human head hanging at his waist, a bloodthirsty and satisfied smile on his face.
The martial arts master was disgusted by his move and attacked him without thinking.
The martial artists on the boat, finding it impossible to communicate and unable to tolerate the provocation, jumped overboard and charged at the cannibals. The cannibals, seeing this, rushed forward without hesitation. A fierce melee ensued, with blood gradually staining the beach red.
The battle did not last long. The martial artists had the upper hand thanks to their superb martial arts and lightness skills. The cannibals, seeing that the situation was not good, fled into the woods.
Seeing this, the martial artists did not pursue them, but instead began to collect the weapons scattered on the ground and rescue the injured allies.
However, in order to prevent a sudden attack from the cannibals, they returned to the ship.
Xu Ning and his friends were feeling heavy-hearted. These cannibals were too smart. They reacted so quickly and fled into the forest. This made it very difficult for the martial artists to get rid of them all.
Fortunately, the cannibals took away some weapons when they fled, so these martial artists would not leave here easily.
Xu Ning secretly switched the drone's footage to the large ship, and saw several older martial artists discussing how to deal with the cannibals.
It turned out that they had discovered the reflective mirrors when the ship approached the cannibal island, and they realized that these reflective objects might be a special treasure. When they saw the cannibals holding their weapons, they confirmed their guess.
This island is the real treasure trove!
"Are they going to the island again?" Qi Canglan had actually noticed something wrong a long time ago. For example, the weapons that suddenly appeared in the hands of the cannibals and the lights that appeared from time to time on the island all indicated that there was a force he didn't know about that was doing this.
But he saw the process through the results, and knowing that this would only benefit them, he kept silent. After all, if these martial artists could truly eliminate the cannibals, then they wouldn't have to worry about the cannibal problem in the future.
"Oh my god, it turns out that old people are the wisest. When it comes to cruelty, you have to look no further than the old ones. Master, they plan to use the same trick they used on you to deal with the cannibals!" Xu Ning looked at the scene in surprise. She came to this conclusion by observing their lip shapes, and immediately looked at Cui Yong with shining eyes.
Cui Yong rolled his eyes at her helplessly and thought to himself: You don’t have to say the last sentence!
"Hey, not bad, not bad. Looks like they're planning to conquer the world with one trick! But why didn't we think of that?" Xu Ning asked curiously. She was a little puzzled. Why hadn't she thought of using this method to deal with the cannibals before? Was it because they were frightened by their brutality?
Regardless, these martial artists have come up with this solution, and it seems very effective. In contrast, although Xu Ning has drones and Xu Yuan, he still needs to consider many factors in actual operation. Therefore, letting these martial artists handle this matter is indeed much safer and more convenient than doing it himself.
"After all, if I can let others do it, I don't have to do it myself." Xu Ning thought silently in his heart, with a smug smile on his face.
At this point, Xu Ning felt that everything was settled, and the problem of the cannibals could definitely be solved perfectly.
Qi Canglan knew nothing about what happened between Cui Yong and those martial artists. When he asked Xu Ning, Xu Ning first looked at Cui Yong to ask for his opinion. After getting his approval, he told Qi Canglan that Cui Yong had been tricked.
Qi Canglan frowned and said thoughtfully, "These cannibals are so alert that it will be difficult to trick them. Xu Ning, they are different from normal humans. Not only do they possess the agility of wild beasts, but they may also have an extremely keen sense of smell."
Xu Ning couldn't help but complain, "No way, big brother, could you please stop talking like a crow!"
Qi Canglan shrugged helplessly: "This is just a fact, Xu Ning. The appearance of martial artists this time will definitely increase their vigilance, but it is also possible that this situation will not occur. Let's wait and see."
Xu Ning was discouraged. Did she not realize that Qi Canglan's next words were meant to comfort her?
Xu Ning looked up at the sky in silence, complaining, "Oh God, can you make these people disappear?!"
"Maybe not..." Qi Canglan continued.
"Okay, okay, don't say anything." Xu Ning retracted her head and glared at Qi Canglan. For a moment, she wanted to possess Old Lady Xu and give him the warmth of home!
