Upon hearing this, Qi Zhao hesitated.
"Therefore, it's safest to use my method. Although my martial arts skills aren't as high as yours, I have my own methods. Alright, it's settled then. I'll go back to my room and pretend to be asleep. You find a place to hide. As long as the man in black kidnaps me, you just follow behind."
I refuse to believe we can't find Su Wan'er this time!
The score between the two of them should be settled.
Su Wan'er can't always be the one taking the initiative; she can't just passively endure it. That's not her style!

On the other side, at Jiang Dali's house.
Not long after the villagers of Dashui Village dispersed, Jiang Tongzhu was awakened by the urge to urinate. After groggily going to the outhouse, he was about to go back to his house to continue sleeping when he suddenly remembered the wall. So he changed his mind, lit a candle, and went out of his own courtyard.
"Yawn~" Jiang Tongzhu yawned and muttered to himself, "I wonder how the wall being built in the village is going. There was quite a commotion last night, so it should be almost finished by now."
He was overjoyed at the thought that he could receive the protection of the village patrol team and the fence for free without having to exert any effort or send anyone.
However, when he saw the scene before him, he was instantly dumbfounded.
Wait, where's the wall?
Jiang Tongzhu craned his neck to look ahead, but couldn't find any sign of the wall.
"That's not right. I clearly heard construction noise in the village when I was sleeping last night, but I can't see the wall."
He felt very strange, so he turned around and looked back.
Ah! What's that stone wall over there!
Shouldn't it be in front of your own yard? Why is the stone wall behind your own yard now?
Jiang Tongzhu had just woken up and was still a little groggy, so he didn't react at all.
A cool breeze blew by, and he instantly sobered up.
Jiang Tongzhu rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things. But no matter how much he rubbed his eyes or repeated the opening and closing motion, the scene in front of him remained unchanged.
The villagers actually built a wall around their house!
That won't do. When the refugees come looking for us, our own family will undoubtedly be in the most danger.
Jiang Tongzhu was extremely anxious. He ran home as fast as he could, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Father, Mother, something terrible has happened!"
Having finally managed to fall asleep despite her hunger, Liu San Niang was now greatly annoyed to be woken up by her youngest son. She irritably got out of bed, opened the door, and asked Jiang Tongzhu gruffly, "What's the matter that you're in such a panic! Even if things get worse, our rice jar is empty!"
Jiang Dali was furious. He walked quickly to the door, shirtless, and slapped Jiang Tongzhu on the head. "Why did you wake your old man up, you little brat? Don't you know you don't feel hungry when you're asleep? I finally fell asleep, and you woke me up again. Do you want me to beat you up?"
"Ouch! That hurts!" Jiang Tongzhu cried out, grimacing as he clutched his forehead.
Jiang Yinzhu's stomach was throbbing with hunger, making it impossible for him to sleep. Hearing the noise outside, he jumped out of bed and ran out barefoot, excitedly saying, "Father, Mother, have you decided to slaughter our cow?"
"What kind of cow are you going to kill! Don't even think about it!" Jiang Dali rolled his eyes.
He still wants to make a fortune by using oxcarts.
"Oh, so what exactly happened?" Jiang Yinzhu asked, utterly disappointed, the light in his eyes instantly extinguished.
