Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2369: Chapter 2368: Array Activation

Wa Wei pouted, walked into the sea, not caring as the waves wet her feet.

”You’re the one who’s crying, I’m not a child anymore.” She said somewhat defiantly.

The young man laughed softly, his voice enchanting, causing Wa Wei to lose herself a bit, ”Why is your voice so nice?”

The young man’s laughter grew louder, ”Your smile is beautiful too.”

Wa Wei blushed red to her ears, ”You’re teasing me again.”

”I’m serious.” The young man said earnestly, with a bit of insistence in his eyes.

Wa Wei turned her face away, softly saying, ”I might have to leave for a while.”

”Where are you going?” The young man asked hurriedly.

”I’m learning medicine from a goddess who came to the Island, but they are going to Fusang. Initially, I didn’t want to go with them, but after just a few days, my learning isn’t good...”

Her voice grew softer, nervously looking at the young man, as if afraid he would be angry.

The young man’s handsome brows knitted together, let out a slight sigh and said, ”You still can’t let go of your father’s situation. If learning medicine makes you happier, then go ahead.”

Wa Wei felt joyful, ”They will return to Luili Island after Fusang. By then, I won’t go to Danliang, I’ll stay on the island as a doctor.”

The young man opened his mouth, wanting to speak about the future, but didn’t know where to start.

”I’ll visit you if I get the chance.” He finally uttered this sentence.

Wa Wei felt sweetness in her heart, but said, ”You better not take the risk, what if someone sees you?”

”If those people are that dangerous, I’m even more worried for you to go with them.” The young man said with a lowering face.

”Lady Bai is a good person, especially gentle to me, and her husband looks a lot like your eyes, it would be great if you could meet him.” Wa Wei said with a smile.

The young man paused, then turned his face awkwardly and asked, ”Is he more handsome than me?”

Wa Wei burst out laughing, ”Haha, you’re being vain again!”

The young man blushed and splashed water, the two started to play around, while a shadow hid behind distant rocks, trying to conceal itself further.

The shadow’s lips slightly curved, showing a sarcastic smile... The next day Bai Ruozhu continued her lecture, Wa Wei unusually arrived the latest, sporting two dark eye circles, causing Bai Ruozhu to worry.

”Didn’t sleep well last night?” Bai Ruozhu asked gently.

Wa Wei chuckled awkwardly, ”I kept thinking of things and ended up with insomnia.”

Bai Ruozhu guessed it was about following her to learn medicine, so she didn’t ask further. She wanted to teach Wa Wei to both compensate Luili Island and because she saw Wa Wei’s potential, cherishing such talent.

But if Wa Wei didn’t want to learn much, Bai wouldn’t insist, as everyone has their own path, others can’t determine it for them.

Bai Ruozhu looked at Jiang Yichun from a distance and subtly signaled him.

They hadn’t developed a plan to lure the snake out of its hole, and even created an illusion that Elder Ding had no protection. Unexpectedly, the hidden black hand was very cunning, not attacking Elder Ding but instead turned to strike Liu Si.

For this, Jiang Yichun felt he was too careless and secretly made new arrangements.

Bai Ruozhu taught as usual, soon distant shouts were heard, ”Mountain fire has started, everyone be careful!”

Luili Island is small but has a mountain in the middle, sometimes having mountain fires. Fortunately, surrounded by sea, there’s plenty of water to extinguish fires.

”Quickly organize people to put out the fire!” Someone shouted.

Most islanders gathered around Bai Ruozhu, so soon the village chief Wa Shu hurried over.

Li Jin stepped forward to Wa Shu and said, ”Village chief, I just sent someone to check, this might not be a typical mountain fire, seems like a fire snake.”

Bai Ruozhu quickly reacted, ”Fire snake” is the term Luili Island uses for volcanic eruptions.

Luili Island’s mountain fires don’t appear without reason, as the island has a small volcano crater, likely formed from underwater volcanic eruptions, similar to Jeju Island Bai Ruozhu visited in her previous life.

”What? It’s a fire snake, everyone quickly go to the Holy Land for shelter, don’t let anyone get hurt!” Wa Shu exclaimed.

Luili Island faced small volcanic activities numerous times, so they already developed a protection strategy.

Bai Ruozhu hastily said, ”We must gather everyone on the island, no one can be left out. Send someone to carry Liu Si too.”

”Alright, Xiaxu, you take people to fetch Liu Si. Wang Er, you ring the bell, gather everyone to the Holy Land.” Wa Shu arranged.

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun secretly exchanged glances, then she pulled Wa Wei aside, whispering, ”Do you recognize every person on the island?”

”I know each of them, even the newborns.” Wa Wei, smart as she is, also kept her voice low.

”Soon you must pay close attention to those gathering, make sure none are overlooked, see if any outsiders mixed in.” Bai Ruozhu advised, ”Also, be careful of anyone disguising as islanders.”

Wa Wei showed surprise, then nodded seriously, ”Don’t worry Lady Bai, I’ll be very attentive.”

Girls are detail-oriented, with Wa Wei being smart, Bai Ruozhu trusted her with the task.

Soon all the islanders gathered, even Liu Si was carried over, Wa Shu led the group toward the Holy Land.

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun walked at the back.

Actually, the mountain fire hadn’t erupted, the distant smoke was arranged by Jiang Yichun.

So once everyone gathered into the Holy Land, Bai Ruozhu asked Wa Wei again, Wa Wei earnestly said, ”No outsiders.”

”Then it’s outside, begin!” Bai Ruozhu whispered to Jiang Yichun.

Jiang Yichun strode outward from the Holy Land, causing Wa Shu to worry and shout, ”Don’t run around, what if sparks hit you?”

”Rest assured village chief, he’s highly skilled, it’s fine.” Bai Ruozhu consoled gently.

Jiang Yichun left the Holy Land, shot a signal flare into the sky, causing Yuan Licheng’s eyes on the distant mountain to light up, smirking wickedly, ”Heh, finally time, it’s been ages since I made something this big!”

His tone was filled with excitement, then he suddenly sat cross-legged, firmly inserting a formation stone into the earth with one hand.

The wind roared, a giant array fully opened.

Yuan Licheng, once able to sit at the Fire-Thunder Formation, naturally had profound knowledge in arrays. With Yizi’s assistance, they discreetly laid the formation days earlier, waiting for activation.

But if too many people were within the array, precision is difficult, so Jiang Yichun used this method to lead islanders away.

If the mastermind hid among islanders inside the Holy Land, it was perfect to catch him.

If he stayed outside, the large array was enough to deal a heavy blow.
