Chapter 203 Return to the Village

Because of the mounts, Wu Fan and his team were not slow on the road. Before, it took Wu Fan more than a day to go from the Hermit Village to Qingyuan County, but this time, it only took half a day to go back from Qingyuan County to the Hermit Village.

When Wu Fan and his team arrived at the Hermit Village, the Hermit Village instantly became lively.

There were only ten people in the Hermit Village, and now there are so many people, the whole Hermit Village has become lively.

"You guys go to the woods in front to cut some wood and build simple houses." Wu Fan said to Niu Er and others: "Remember, be careful, there are wild beasts there, it shouldn't be too dangerous in the periphery."

Niu Er and others are not strong, just a little better than ordinary farmers, but they have weapons to protect themselves, and they are in the periphery of the woods, so it shouldn't be too dangerous.

As for why they were asked to go to the woods in front of the village instead of the woods in the back mountain, it was naturally because the back mountain was Wu Fan's private property, and he would use it as little as possible.

Niu Er and the others followed the order and left. Even the younger brother of the pair of siblings went, but the older sister did not go. However, Wu Fan thought that the other party was a girl, and the hard work of cutting trees was indeed not very suitable for her.

So Wu Fan took her to see the village chief. He brought so many people to the village at once, so he had to greet the village chief anyway.

"By the way, I haven't asked you and your brother's names yet." Wu Fan turned his head and looked at the girl.

"My name is Luo Yue, and my brother's name is Luo Yang."

"Where are you from?" Wu Fan asked.

Along the way, Wu Fan tried to find some topics to talk to Luo Yue. She became an orphan at a young age. Wu Fan was afraid that the siblings would become withdrawn, so he wanted to chat with them more and enlighten them.

However, Luo Yue's temperament seemed to be even colder than Liu Yan'er. Wu Fan asked a question and she answered it. She never spoke on her own initiative. Moreover, even if she answered Wu Fan's question, she could say one word, never two.

Soon, the two came to the old village chief's house, and Wu Fan stopped chatting with Luo Yue.

The old village chief was still lying on the recliner in front of the door, rocking slowly and slightly closing his eyes.

"Grandpa village chief, I'm back." Wu Fan took the initiative to greet him.

The old village chief then opened his eyes and looked at Wu Fan: "Wu Fan, why did you come back so soon? A deserter? This is not okay. You go to serve in the military, but you represent the face of our Hermit Village. If others know that someone from our Hermit Village has become a deserter, where will you let me, the village chief, put my face? Go back quickly, go back quickly."

The old village chief came up and scolded Wu Fan.

"I'm not a deserter, but the court ended the military service early." Wu Fan then briefly explained what happened on the wilderness plain: "The court seems to be on the defensive against the people in the demon world now, so it will not attack those people in the demon world for the time being. We, who are complicated to deliver food, have nothing to do and were disbanded early."

"So that's the case. I said that you can't be a deserter, haha." The old village chief laughed.

Wu Fan glared at the other person in annoyance.

The old village chief was a little embarrassed, and then looked at Luo Yue next to Wu Fan and asked: "Who is this, your little wife?"

"What? This is the maid I bought." Wu Fan explained: "By the way, I brought some people back this time. They are all my personal soldiers. They may live in the village. Is that okay?"

"This..." The old village chief pretended to hesitate.

"What is this?" Wu Fan said immediately, "I haven't settled accounts with you for lying to me. You said that this military service would only take three months, but when I got there, I realized that it was a lifelong system! After going there once, I have to go every year in the future!"

The old village chief's face showed embarrassment again. He did say something less in order to get Wu Fan to serve in the military. "You are now a baron, and you don't have to serve in the military in the future."

"That was earned by my own merits, and it has nothing to do with you." Wu Fan said, "In the final analysis, you still fooled me."

"Okay, let those people stay." The old village chief said.

"That's more or less." Wu Fan said with satisfaction.

"However, since you have those personal soldiers around you, then our militia team of the Hermit Village will be composed of you and your personal soldiers." The old village chief showed a fox-like smile on his face.

"Okay, it turns out that you have been planning to take advantage of us for a long time, and just now you even pretended not to let them stay." Wu Fan said suddenly.

"You just said that the court asked each village to form its own militia to guard against traitors. I guess the order will be passed here soon. You know the situation in our village. There are no young people there. Don't you go and let us old guys go to the militia?" said the old village chief.

"Then you were acting just now?" Wu Fan said.

"I was afraid that you would not agree." said the old village chief.

"You can agree, but the weapons and protective gear of my people will be provided by the village." Wu Fan said.

Although Niu Er and others already have weapons, they were made by Wu Fan himself after all. Obviously, the weapons he made could not be compared with those of Sun the blacksmith. Now that there is a chance to blackmail, he will naturally not let it go.

"Okay, no problem." The old village chief agreed without hesitation.

The militia is to protect the safety of the village. Giving them better weapons and protective gear can also better protect the village.

After the matter was settled, Wu Fan and Niu Er and others met up, found a vacant lot in the village, and then began to build simple houses.

Because it was just the simplest wooden house, it didn't take much time. Before dark, everyone had built their own wooden houses.

Wu Fan walked into his wooden house and teleported back to reality.

On the second day in the game world, when Wu Fan came out of the wooden house, Niu Er and others had lined up in a neat team and were running around the Hermit Village. Just as they said before, Wu Fan promised to take them in as personal soldiers, and they would never be vague about training.

What surprised Wu Fan a little was that Luo Yue and Luo Yang actually joined them. The identities of these two people were servants of the Wu Mansion. Logically, they didn't need to be trained. They just needed to take good care of Wu Fan. However, they didn't expect that the two of them took the initiative to join the morning training, especially Luo Yue, who was even more difficult as a girl.

After everyone finished their morning practice, Wu Fan gathered them together and said, "From today on, I will teach you a set of military combat techniques, called Ba Dao Sword Techniques. You all must practice seriously."

Then, Wu Fan looked at Luo Yue and said, "You don't have to practice with me."
