Under the attention of countless people, Shui Yun and her husband's home was repaired. Among the materials provided, Shui Yun chose a portion of cotton, a portion of straw, and even more than a dozen hard dry branches. After busying herself with Hong Luan for a little less than an hour, the soft bed was finally completed.
Just when everyone thought that everything was over, Shui Yun flew away alone. After a while, she returned with a piece of cement in her mouth. Nobody knew where she got it from. She threw it at Zhang Xiaobao's feet and let out a long cry.
Fortunately, it was Zhang Xiaobao. If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't know what Shui Yun wanted to do. Wang Juan was more puzzled.
"Shui Yun wants to build a depression with cement around the nest, just like the gap on the cliff. The two sides can block the wind and the top can block the rain," Zhang Xiaobao said.
The people in charge of the surrounding construction were surprised by Shui Yun's intelligence. Without further instructions, they hurriedly fetched the cement, climbed up the ten feet high shelf, and began to build a simulated cliff for the Shui Yun couple.
When everything was ready, the cement was dry, and Shui Yun moved in, Wang Juan was a little worried. "Xiao Bao, do you think there will be people who can't hurt us and will target Shui Yun?"
Usually, Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao paid the most attention to safety and protection. One was always counted and the other was specialized in this. They were never willing to leave a loophole that could be used by the enemy.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded. "I think it's possible. It's hard to guess people's thoughts of revenge. Some people are very careless. If they can't take revenge on the person themselves, they will take action around the person. They won't even let go of a dog. As long as they can find a chance to attack the other party, they will take action."
"Then why don't you think of a way? If anything happens to Shui Yun, we won't just lose an eagle. At that time, even if we cut the enemy into pieces, we won't be able to exchange for a life. We can stop guns, but what about crossbows?"
Wang Juan had long stopped treating Shui Yun as an animal. Just like Furry, the big goose she raised, she treated it as a part of the family. Firstly, animals with high intelligence were indeed cute. Secondly, it was to show the other farmers and servants that the master was good. If she could treat animals like this, how could she treat humans?
Zhang Xiaobao was not in a hurry. He picked up a small stone the size of a thumbnail and threw it into the lake. Looking at the ripples, he said, "How far can a crossbow shoot? This rack is built very well. Some parts of the wood are thick while others are thin. Have you ever seen a magic trick? "
"What magic trick?" Wang Juan clearly knew that Zhang Xiaobao was using the method of asking questions to guide her. To be precise, he was showing off his knowledge, but she still cooperated with him and asked a question.
"It's to put a person performing a magic trick in a place that looks very narrow and difficult to hide in. Then, the magician can disappear in front of other people's eyes."
Zhang Xiaobao opened his arms and made a gesture commonly used by magicians. However, he was not wearing a large black robe, so he looked a little out of place.
Wang Juan nodded cooperatively. With a blank look in her eyes, she replied, "I've seen it before. What's wrong? It's very magical. Xiao Bao, do you know how to do it? Tell me, I've always wanted to understand the principle behind it. "
Zhang Xiaobao immediately became depressed. Wang Juan's words were too fake. He bowed his head in resignation. "Wifey, thank you. You know how to take care of my face. What I meant was to use the error of visual angle to put people on the rack. No matter how far a crossbow's attack range is, it's not as far as our sniper rifle.
I'll just have to inconvenience Shuiyun and her husband. Let them be the bait and give the people who want to deal with us a chance. Shuiyun is now a general. No matter whether she's an eagle or a man, she's still an official of the imperial court. As long as someone comes within a certain distance and wants to do something unfavorable to Shuiyun, we'll take action in advance. "
"What if it's someone from the imperial family?" Wang Juan didn't play dumb this time. She walked around the rack and looked around as she asked.
"It's the same. As long as they don't give notice in advance, no one can come. Mmm, except for Li Longji and my godfather. When something really happens, we'll have Shuiyun go to the palace to fight the local court and let our wise His Majesty the Emperor preside over justice. "
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaobao shook his head. "I reckon Shuiyun won't be able to win even once. She can't speak the human language. Won't the other party's mouth be whatever they say? Don't you think so? "
"You're too bad. You send people to make a move and then have Shuiyun do it. She won't be able to say anything, but it's precisely because she can't speak that the other party is depressed. Just like Xiaobei and the others, if they really do catch an official and bring him to the palace, even if the other party has no problems, they'll still be taught a lesson.
Between the words of a child and the words of an adult, there's no need to ask which is more trustworthy. Even if Li Longji clearly knows that Xiaobei and the others are lying, he'll still teach that official a lesson even if he doesn't give us face. Why is it that other people aren't caught, but you're being targeted by a group of children? You can't even solve a child's problem, so what can you do? "
Wang Juan imagined that one day, Shuiyun and her husband would really go to Xingqing Palace to confront the other party. She couldn't help but want to laugh. It was really too difficult to understand the principles of this world.
At the mention of Xiaobei, a gratified smile appeared on Zhang Xiaobao's face. The railway was about to be completed. His younger brothers and sisters went there to help every day. They sang songs and danced for the people who worked for free and only ate a meal. Their popularity was getting better and better.
"Xiaobei wrote a 'memorial' yesterday. Did you see it?" Zhang Xiaobao asked. "I saw it.
I don't know why this little girl is so smart. She said that she's waiting for the railway to be completed and invited the people of the capital to take it for free. She's not willing to spend the money she 'earned' to buy tickets and insists that we bear the cost. I don't know why she needs so much money. I heard from the person who takes care of her that she took all of Xiaohai and the others' money. In total, it should be 10,000 strings of string of cash, right? "
Wang Juan followed.
"That's right. They usually do their homework well and help with the household chores. Add to that the reward given to them by those truly outrageous officials, it should be more than 11,000 strings of cash. It's not a small amount. Don't worry too much about this matter. Let her do it. Even if she makes a mistake, it's fine. We'll help clean up the mess."
Zhang Xiaobao didn't deliberately remember how much money his younger brothers and sisters had. It was just a professional habit.
"Okay, let's not care. Let's go and take a look at the railway that's been completed. The Great Tang's railway has a long way to go. Xiao Bao, those two people don't seem to be looking at us right now."
