Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

"Girl, you are back.

The things you ordered are ready." Jueyu was certainly not talking about the food she had mentioned earlier.

Wen Shu glanced at Du Ming who came out to greet them, nodded at him, and led a group of people into the main house.

Seeing that most people had arrived, he said, "It's so late and you're still waiting for me. Thank you for your hard work."

"How was the handover between my brother and you today?"

After Wen Shu finished speaking, she looked directly at Da Jin who was standing behind her.

"Reporting to the clan leader, all the accounts have been handed over to Master Du Ming. However, there are other trivial matters that are complicated and cannot be sorted out in a short time..."

At this time, Du Ming said, "Even if I had ten hands, I couldn't sort it out in a short time. What's more, you are responsible for more things in the front. Don't worry about the things you are in charge of first."

Hearing this, Wen Shu had an idea in her mind. It seemed that Brother Du Ming had a good impression of Da Jin after the day of contact with Da Jin, otherwise he would never have said this at this time.

Wen Shu said, "Since my brother has spoken, Dajin, you should assist Du Ming well."

After saying that, he asked Da Jin and others to leave, leaving Wen Shu and Du Ming in the room.

Looking at the locked door, Du Ming looked serious.

"Chief, what happened?" Du Ming asked first.

He was a little unsure. He was pulled here temporarily and had not made any preparations beforehand. When he arrived here today, the patriarch arranged a lot of things for them.

It's piled up there, and you won't be able to figure it out for a while, even if you stay up for days and nights.

Also, he was wondering what the patriarch's intention was in leaving him here alone, which made him feel inexplicably frightened.

Wen Shu could hear the panic in his heart and said, "I think you know about Du Kang's matter too!"

"Yes, but I didn't expect that my Du family treated him well, but I didn't expect him to be so cruel and ruthless."

"Chief, such a big change happened because of this incident," Du Ming asked doubtfully.

Wen Shu thought about it and didn't hide it anymore. "Brother Du Ming, since you are not an outsider, I will tell you the truth.

Of course I am the clan leader. Many of you may appear to obey me but may not agree with me in your heart. You are just letting me bear the title of clan leader."

Looking into Du Ming's eyes, Wen Shu spoke frankly.

This is a fact. In the eyes of the elders of the Du family, she is just a child. If they trust her, it is just to give face to her grandmother and watch her being born.

If it weren't for the support of my second uncle and that somewhat unreliable sixth uncle, I might have flipped the table.

……

When Du Ming heard this, he was surprised. He did not refute but agreed.

Wen Shu saw his reaction and continued without surprise, "But the situation is different now. If it weren't for Kang Wu and the accidents at the nearby village, I might not be so anxious and would have thought of making plans slowly in the future.

Now you are not taking me with you, we don’t have much time. We haven’t found out how much of this village Kang Wu has taken out, but at least we can be sure that the Du family and this village are no longer secrets.

"Chief, are you preparing to take the initiative to attack?" Du Ming is a smart man, how could he not understand.

Wen Shu nodded without objection.

"But Chief, although the people in this village have been training non-stop, they have never really fought against anyone in all these years, and have never been on the battlefield. If they are suddenly forced to fight against others,

Is that possible?

Du Ming's worries are not without reason, but fighting in the battlefield is not something that one is born with. If the situation is not revealed, who would be willing to risk their life to fight on the battlefield?

But the current situation is like standing on a cliff with a tiger behind you. If you don’t strengthen yourself and be able to fight it, you will either fall off the cliff and be smashed to pieces, or be eaten by the beast.

Their Du family is in the current situation...

No, it’s not just the Du family, the entire Dajin is like this.

No eggs are left unbroken when the nest is overturned, and this is especially true for them.

"Brother Ming, I understand your concerns. I might have considered it before, but the situation is urgent now.

We need to go to the front. I will be leaving for a few days. From now on, please, Brother Du Ming, strengthen the defense of the village."

"What? The patriarch is leaving tonight?" Du Ming didn't expect the patriarch to be so anxious.

I couldn't wait all night.

“Yes, we don’t have an accurate grasp of where the news of this village has spread to yet, but we can’t wait for the day when danger comes.

We can't wait until the day when the butcher's knife is pointed at us before we react. Maybe God wants to spare our Du family and let us know the news of the neighboring village in advance.

Fortunately, those desperate criminals were not very careful with their words, so I was able to pry out the details about Kang Wu from their mouths."

"Yes, it's fortunate that the clan leader is smart, otherwise my Du family would be in great trouble." Du Ming was still frightened. Too many things happened in the past two days.

"Now I have to tell you something. It's a matter of great importance, and it's related to the future safety of our Du family..." Wen Shu heard the sound of people moving things in the yard outside, and knew it was getting late, so she went straight to the point.

"Please speak, Chief. Du Ming will do his best."

"The people in Jingwu Hall are going to be released to exercise. I think the people in the camp have no discipline. I can't guide them in martial arts, but Seventh Aunt and the others can.

Arrange for the people to go there as soon as possible, and hand them over to Aunt Seven, so that they can start training as soon as possible."

"But the people from Jingwu Hall never go out," Du Ming looked at Wen Shu.

"That was in the past. Besides, my Du family has supported them for so many years. It's time for them to come out and walk around and protect our Du family..." Wen Shu was not polite at all. They knew that Jingwu Hall has always been the most mysterious and important existence in the entire Tun.

No matter what happened over the years, the Jingwu Hall has never shown up and has always been hidden in the mountains. Even in the village, few people know how many people there are in the Jingwu Hall and what kind of existence it is.

Wen Shu knew what Du Ming was worried about, and said, "You can't do this alone. Those people had only seen Kang Wu before, but Second Uncle said that they actually only had human seals.

Previously, it was because Second Uncle took the seal as a token of trust that those people followed Kang Wu’s instructions. When you go, ask Seventh Aunt to go with you. Seventh Aunt has the seal in her hand and asks her to go with you. Only then will it go smoothly without any obstruction.”

Thinking about the future arrangements, Wen Shu continued, "Seventh Aunt, I still need your help, brother."

Wen Shu was ready to continue making arrangements, but she remembered that her second uncle had just passed on the news. If she spoke now, Du Ming would be under great pressure and might even be scared away.

The best thing to do now is to scare the guy away first, and then we can make other arrangements later.

After her second uncle comes, she naturally won't have to worry about anything, and she can go out and explore without worry.

"Okay, it's getting late, and I have to leave too. You can take care of the accounts first. I'll send someone to escort you to Seventh Aunt's place at dawn tomorrow.

Tell her about Jingwu Hall, and she will help you."
