Chapter 213: Three Visits to the Thatched House (1)
"By the way, Agu, this red fruit tastes good, what's the name?" he suddenly remembered and hurriedly handed the fruit over for him to see.
"I said that you are really bold enough to dare to eat without even knowing your name, and you are not afraid of poisoning. Agus looked stunned.
"We're not so stupid anymore, didn't some brave monkeys try it first, they're okay if they eat it, and of course we'll be fine if we eat it. Xu Nuo'er said with an angry face.
"I see, it's not stupid, they are red mountain fruits, and after a while, the people will pick them back to make fruit wine, which is more delicious than osmanthus brewing." Agus said proudly.
"Not to mention that this mountain is really full of treasures, if you can make the most of them and transport them out, this place will definitely become rich. Xu Nuo'er said with a leap of thought.
Many of the things here cannot be bought in the market, and if they can be transported to the capital's market, they will definitely sell for a good price, and then this place will become a famous treasure land, but then people will not flock to it, and then it will not maintain its original beauty.
"Let's go back quickly, the big guy is still waiting, I'm afraid the wind will come back in a while." The four of them took their prey and began to return. I always feel that when I come back, it takes a short time, and it doesn't take long to get to the village.
At this time, Rufeng was studying these weapons with the young adults in the village, and Mo Xingchen nodded with satisfaction as he looked at a large cart of weapons and the various seeds he brought over.
"This time, our weapons will be solved at once, and we will not be afraid of them if Nalan enlightens them again. Agus looked at those fine weapons and couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't worry, they will come here but sneak over, they won't bring any big troops, they rely on the quality of the people and the quality of the weapons, now that your weapons problem is solved, you must train your troops diligently, when they come, you will naturally deal with it easily, and you don't need to be afraid of them in the future." Mo Xingchen said with a determined face.
"Don't worry, with this lesson, we will not slack off, and we will definitely train a well-trained and well-trained team when the time comes. Agus was also confident.
"You say so, I have some suggestions, you can divide the people into three classes, according to age and physical fitness, the first class of people are strong young people, and there are some kung fu foundations, these people are elite troops, you have to personally train them at that time, teach them kung fu, when the other invades, you can let them as the vanguard troops. The second class is the one whose physical fitness is a little worse, and this part is also brought by you personally, and you train with the elite troops, but the requirements can be lowered a little. The third class is the ones who can be selected as soldiers, these people are trained by the people you choose, and they will only come in handy when the enemy invades, although they are not of great use, but we cannot ignore them, because they are still the main force of production on weekdays, and will only be sent to the battlefield during the war years. Mo Xingchen made a rough plan for the current situation of the people in the village.
"Well, you're right, I should have trained them into a well-fought army and let them do their best to defend the stockade. Agus recalled the day before yesterday when Nalan enlightened and declared war, the people in the stockade panicked, he still feels a little guilty, as the leader, he did not train them to become qualified soldiers, did not let them make their due contribution to the defense of the homeland, but Agus felt sorry for the old and young in the village, they talked and laughed on weekdays, and felt very happy, but if this continues, when there is really money and foreign enemies invade, they are helpless, which is what everyone does not want to see.
Two days later, Xu Nuo'er and Mo Xingchen left the island with his guards, and also said goodbye to Agus and the people in the stockade.
"Do we have a chance to come here again?" asked Xu'er, sitting on the boat, looking in the direction of the island.
"Well, and it won't be too far, we're going to bring him back, he doesn't belong there, he's a male lion but he is locked in a cage and can't perform, it's a pity!" Mo Xingchen stood with his hands in his hands, staring into the distance, and said with a melancholy expression.
"You still feel sorry for him, don't you? Everyone has their own ambitions, this is also his own choice, we can only give appropriate opinions but cannot make decisions for others, so we don't have to worry, everything is arranged by God, no matter how worried we are, it will not help. Xu Yu'er enlightened Mo Xingchen empathetically, she knew that Mo Xingchen and Agus were close friends, and Mo Xingchen would definitely not be able to accept Agus's practice of living in seclusion in the mountains and forests and ignoring the world.
"Well, I know, so I can only use strategy to make him change his current mind, otherwise what's the point of apprenticeship for more than ten years, hunting and fishing all day long, it seems that there is no need to take the world's martial arts, even if he is an old man, he can adapt to that kind of life, so maybe what's the point. Mo Xingchen sighed, he really couldn't understand why Agus's lofty ambitions were all gone all of a sudden.
When Mo Xingchen came back and reported the matter to the emperor, the emperor sent Mo Xingchen as a lobbyist to ask Agus to come out of the mountain.
Mo Xingchen was naturally elated, he took Xu Yu'er and the four secret guards, and led dozens of guards towards the small island.
When the group came to the island, they learned that Argus had gone out to visit his relatives and friends.
"This guy is actually playing tricks on me, what relatives does he have and what friends does he have, why don't I know?" Hearing this situation, Mo Xingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Haha, is he going to test our sincerity and make us look at the thatched house?" Xu Yu'er said with a smile.
"This guy has also learned this way, isn't he visiting relatives and friends, we don't leave here for a long time, take care of the village for him, catch production, and see how he can thank us when he comes back?" Mo Xingchen smiled and said his thoughts.
This is a good idea, and he will be surprised when he returns, for he never dreamed that King Fu, who was busy with official business, would decide to stay on this little-known island for his sake. Xu Nuo'er didn't object, anyway, she liked it here, everything here made people feel comfortable, and the longer she stayed here, the more she could understand why Argus was reluctant to leave here, and why she would rather give up her high-ranking officials and choose to live here.
The strange couple hit it off, and the two immediately decided to stay here and wait for Argus to return.
Mo Xingchen was even more polite, and directly lived in Agus's room, Xu Yu'er still lived in the room arranged for her by Agus last time, and Mo Xingchen was only separated by a wall.
This makes the guards miserable, especially the four secret guards, they really can't find a decent house, the environment here is really worse than their residence in the capital, and the people here are not familiar with the place, they need to be very careful.
"You say, bamboo won't like it here, I'm going to stay here and don't leave, I don't like it here, mosquitoes and insects are flying around everywhere and it's annoying. Lu Wu, who was dressed in a guard suit, complained with disgust, he knew that this was like this, so he didn't follow him happily, and now it's too late to regret it.
"There's nothing bad here, the scenery is beautiful and the air is pleasant, don't you want to stay young forever, it's suitable to stay here, when the time comes, you apply to stay, and then go back in ten years, and keep a few years younger than us." Dark Night smiled and quipped.
"Bah, close your crow's mouth, or I'm much lighter than yours, hmph, you have to stay, you stay, I'm here to stay, I don't even have a beautiful woman, I don't look down on a pretty girl, I don't like it here." Luwu glanced at the village with disgust, and it was really unpleasant to see there.
"Don't make noise, it's more annoying than mosquitoes, and you won't sleep until you die, if you don't sleep, you two can report yourself and stand guard for the sentry, so as not to waste manpower." "The phantom has a splitting headache, listening to where these two big mosquitoes are buzzing, it is really upsetting, the environment is not good, and I have to endure this, and I get angry for a while.
"Did you hear it, everyone objected, let's both sleep, if you can't do it, you just go outside and run a few laps, when you are tired, you will naturally be sleepy." Dark Night teased in a low voice.
"you, you want to run, you run, old lady, I'll sleep now. Luwu twisted the water snake's waist and lay down on the humble wooden bed.
There's no way to follow the customs, even the noble bodies of the prince and the princess can adapt here, and there is nothing she can't adapt to.
"Don't be an old lady, I thought I was in the wrong room when I fell asleep, and it would be troublesome to sleepwalk in fear again. Night chuckled.
Luwu glared at him vigorously, and did not speak again, it was late at night, and the silence was a little frightening, except for the occasional cricket cry outside.
The people in the room slowly fell silent, and after a while, there was the sound of even breathing.
A figure flashed in front of the door of the stockade, "Cuckoo! Cuckoo!" Two cuckoo calls came, and the sentry hurriedly ran over, and said with a smile: "King, are you back?"
"Are they gone?" Argus asked, asking Mo Xingchen if they had left.
"No, and if you don't see you, you're not going to leave. The sentry was a little discouraged.
"Ahh
"King, if not, you can come back and live, this cave is too dangerous, not to mention too many wild beasts, even poisonous insects are enough for you, the key is that you can't escape the fifteenth even if you escape the first day of junior high school, right?" said the sentry with some embarrassment.
"But there's still a free, safe room, I'll deal with it for the night?" Argus decided to find a place to take refuge for the time being.
