Wei Xiaoshan listened to Lu Yuan's story with trepidation, and immediately felt worried about their current situation.
"Then...should we move out right now? It's too dangerous to live here!" Wei Xiaoshan asked with a worried expression.
After all, this woman called Sister Xia is far too dangerous. Last time she came here with Wang Kuan and the others, after their analysis, they both believed that this woman was there to investigate their strengths and weaknesses. As for that man, he was just a tool for her.
Lu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Sigh, I also want to move, but where can we move to now? We bought the land in Jincheng, but the house hasn't been built yet. I plan to go there after the floodwaters recede a bit."
However, it seems the floodwaters won't recede for a while. We can't just sit here and wait to die. More and more people have unfounded misunderstandings about this place. We need to dispel these misconceptions before we can continue living here peacefully.
"Then... then what method should we use to dissuade them? They won't listen to us." Wei Xiaoshan asked with some concern.
After all, there are far too many small groups like this in the vicinity. With so many people around, it's easy to see what's going on. Last time, they even chased Wang Kuan away, so they're bound to hold a grudge. They might even join forces with other people in the vicinity to launch another attack on their base.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and solemnly said to Wei Xiaoshan, "Xiaoshan, I have to tell you about this. In order to ensure that we have no worries about our future life, I plan to take the initiative to find this woman and show her clearly in person! Otherwise, she might try to harm me again next time, which would mean endless anxiety. I really can't live like that."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Wei Xiaoshan felt a pang of sadness. She didn't want Lu Yuan to go find this woman, but faced with her serious threat, she knew that if Lu Yuan didn't step forward, there might be another incident. However, if Lu Yuan went, he would definitely be in danger. She didn't know what the woman's intentions were, but if she really wanted Lu Yuan dead, then going would be tantamount to suicide.
Thinking of this, Wei Xiaoshan's face fell, and then she stared quietly at Lu Yuan and asked, "Can you not go? It's really too dangerous for you to go!"
Lu Yuan sighed, gently pinched his cheek, and said softly, "It's okay, I'll be careful. Don't worry. If he really wants to do something to me, I won't let him do whatever he wants. Don't worry. Don't tell Mom and Dad, or Grandpa and Grandma, about this yet. They might worry."
Wei Xiaoshan lay helplessly against his chest for a long time before finally nodding.
"Then you must be very careful. If things really don't go well, you can always exchange something for them. Saving your life is the most important thing."
Lu Yuan knew that Xiao Shan was worried about him, but he still had to go. He could only nod silently, listening to Wei Xiao Shan nagging him about things to be careful about on the road.
In fact, Lu Yuan had already thought of all these things, but going to find this woman would indeed be somewhat dangerous. He needed to bring his own belongings with him, and the woman's identity was very special. He had to find someone to investigate her first, otherwise, he wouldn't even know where she was and would be searching for her like looking for a needle in a haystack, which would be practically impossible.
After spending the whole night at home, Lu Yuan glanced at Xiao Shan, then coughed and said to everyone, "Well, I'm going out of town soon because I have some business to attend to in Qingshui City. Please take good care of yourselves during this time. I've already told Xiao Shan."
The whole family was stunned when they suddenly heard Lu Yuan say that.
"What? You're going to Qingshui City for a few days?" Lu's mother asked Lu Yuan with some concern.
After all, the factory has been busy preparing for production, but due to a lack of skilled technicians, it has not yet started production. Du Heng felt helpless, but Lu Yuan had no other options either.
"Well, it should take about three to five days. Let's see if we can find some highly skilled personnel. After all, we still need to produce the roof here. It would be a waste to let him waste a huge pile of materials. Besides, the water level is rising every day due to the heavy rain, so it's quite troublesome to find people. In the past, it would have been enough for about a day, but it's different now, so it will take a little longer."
Dad Lu put down his chopsticks, and I quietly stared at Lu Yuan and asked, "Will you be in any danger this time? It's not very peaceful outside right now. Although there aren't large numbers of refugees anymore, many people are still starving, and there might be some robberies. So you should think carefully before you go!"
This was the first time Lu's father had looked at Lu Yuan with such concern. He knew that Lu Yuan was now the pillar of the family, and that everyone in the family had to consult him before making any decisions. Now that he had left, the family members were a little panicked, but Lu Yuan still tried to comfort him. He did not object to Lu Yuan going out.
"Nothing much, just going out to take a look. I heard there's a group of people stuck outside who can't get to the survivor base, so I'm going to see if I can bring back a few experts," Lu Yuan said, trying to sound casual.
