Chapter 167 Madness
Bai Jingzhi sat in the carriage, feeling a little anxious.
"When encountering big things, you need to stay calm. This is what you often say when you come here." Wei Hongmian held her hand. "What's the trouble again?"
There was no more news from Bai Zhao, so Bai Jingzhi forced a smile on his face, "Mom, I'll think about what to do, don't worry."
Then she forced herself to calm down, leaning against the wall of the carriage, squinting her eyes as if she was about to fall asleep.
Seeing his daughter like this, Wei Hongmian couldn't persuade her anymore and could only wait on the side.
These past few days, she did not go out in the carriage unless necessary, and she had been pretending to be weak to cover for Bai Zhao and the others.
When Old Mrs. Bai saw her like this, she couldn't say anything every time she came over.
Wei Hongmian was extremely confused and had no idea what was going on in Liu County, so he simply sent a message to Bai Zhao.
"Old White, can you escape successfully at night?"
"It's unclear now. Yue'e and I haven't met yet. Liu County has tightened martial law. It's definitely impossible to walk out of the city gate without warning."
Bai Zhao is now feeling somewhat uncertain. Even if they have the passing documents now, it might be too late.
These dozens of new arrivals were specifically here to capture the Wei family. It would not be easy for them to hide the truth.
"Then what should we do? How about making a hot weapon to blow up the city gate, and you guys can escape in the chaos."
Wei Hongmian was unsure and a little nervous, and he blurted out his thoughts without paying attention.
In the original world, they did not go on a honeymoon after getting married, but instead went to their respective jobs.
Bai Zhaoxue majored in engineering. In the few years before his marriage, he often traveled around and participated in some domestic infrastructure projects.
When encountering rugged terrain, he also witnessed with his own eyes how his companions overcame the difficulties.
"Thanks to you, Mianmian. Don't worry, I have thought of a way. Nothing will happen."
Bai Zhao sent this message, left a note for Zhou Yue'e, and then entered the space.
"Old Bai, you~" Wei Hongmian sighed, "Forget it, you should just get busy. You and your daughter are of the same character!"
"Mom, what are you mumbling about? Go get me two steamed buns from the space. My head hurts."
"Well, you are overusing your brain. You really need to eat some carbohydrates to replenish it. Just wait."
Wei Hongmian disappeared in the carriage and went straight back to the space villa.
"You hid in here? The secret room was exposed?"
She returned home and saw Bai Zhao busy in the living room.
A pile of miscellaneous items took up most of the space in the living room, and Wei Hongmian almost tripped when he first came in.
"You reminded me that I don't have any hot weapons, but I can do something simple."
"Are you going to make it yourself?" Wei Hongmian took out two steamed buns from the kitchen. "Take it easy, don't blow up the house!"
Bai Zhao paused, "Indeed, I haven't done it for more than 20 years. It's not easy to do it again. Let's forget it."
After saying that, he stopped what he was doing and said, "What are you doing with the steamed buns? Don't let anyone find out!"
"Your daughter is trying to figure out a solution for you. She's overworking her brain. Give her some carbs to replenish her energy."
Wei Hongmian put some beef slices in his steamed bun and was about to leave in a hurry.
"Hey, wait, what good idea did Jingzhi come up with?"
Bai Zhao stood up and said, "Hurry up and ask her to give some advice!"
"Let her in later, and don't touch these things."
Wei Hongmian reminded him again before leaving.
Although Bai Zhao was originally an engineer and later went into business, he has not been familiar with these things for a long time.
If he didn't stop them, Wei Hongmian didn't know whether they would be able to come in next time, and whether the space would still exist.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you so worried?"
Bai Jingzhi was eating a steamed bun in the carriage and noticed that Wei Hongmian was a little absent-minded after coming out of the space.
Wei Hongmian was afraid that she would choke, so he handed her a bottle of water and said:
"It's your father! He was preparing things in the living room and wanted to blow up the city gate.
He is tinkering with it now. If you have any ideas, please go into the space and give him some advice later."
"Blow up the city gate?" Bai Jingzhi almost choked when he drank water. "My father is more daring than me!"
"I originally wanted them to light a few more fires in the county, especially in the county government office. If Sister Yue'e holds Mr. Qian hostage, it will be easier for them to get out."
After Bai Jingzhi finished speaking, he wolfed down the steamed bun and said:
"Mom, please keep an eye on it for me. If anyone comes, let me know."
"I know. Don't follow your father and do something stupid. Safety is the most important thing."
Wei Hongmian was still somewhat worried about the father and daughter.
When the two men arrived here, Bai Zhao was fine, but Bai Jingzhi completely let himself go and appeared in front of them as a completely different person.
In the original world, Bai Jingzhi came from a scientific research background and was rigorous and steady in his work, not as bold and lively as he is now.
When these two people get together, Wei Hongmian is not sure what will happen.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing! If someone comes later, I'll block them."
The smile on Bai Jingzhi's face was completely different.
"Dad, there's no need to go through so much trouble."
After Bai Jingzhi entered the villa, he saw Bai Zhao sitting among a pile of materials, at a loss as to what to do.
"What's your idea?"
"There are fireworks in the warehouse. If you want to attract those people's attention, you don't have to prepare them yourself."
Bai Jingzhi directly stopped Bai Zhao's action, "You'd better pack it up. My mother is worried that you will blow up the space!"
Bai Zhao smiled awkwardly, "I really can do it, but I've thrown it away for more than 20 years, so it takes some effort to remember it."
"There should be some books on chemistry in the study. Once we settle down, those books will be useful."
Bai Jingzhi has already made a plan. The construction of Wujiyuan will depend on the means of future generations.
Pick up all these things.
"Dad, from now on these infrastructure-related things are all your business. You have to learn them all."
Bai Jingzhi knew that his father used to be a top student, so it was easy for him to pick up these things.
"Okay!" Bai Zhao grinned, "I didn't expect that after more than 30 years, I would have to learn everything again. This time travel in our family is really a bit frustrating."
"It will be hard before it gets sweet. Once we develop and get on the right track, everything will be fine!"
Bai Jingzhi quickly painted a rosy picture for him to build up his confidence.
After the space was tidyed up, Bai Jingzhi immediately asked some questions.
"What's going on outside now?"
"The people who came from Prince Li's Mansion to hunt us down are still looking for a mechanism. Another county magistrate was dismissed, and someone from Prince Li's Mansion was parachuted into the position of county magistrate..."
After hearing this, Bai Jingzhi frowned and thought.
"By the way, that Hua Saburo has been found. According to your speculation, he is in this mansion."
Bai Zhao briefly recounted what had happened in the past few days.
"But his condition is not optimistic. If you want to get out smoothly, it would be best to tie him up in the space."
"Oh? Is there something wrong with Hanazaburo?"
Bai Jingzhi had not heard of this matter, so he quickly asked, "Mute? Blind?"
"Neither, he's crazy! He's not thinking straight, he's a little crazy."
Bai Zhao also heard these things from Zhou Yue'e, but he still doesn't know the specific situation.
"Crazy? I wonder if my mother can cure it."
Bai Jingzhi was a little worried at this time. If he was a disabled person, there would be no need for them to go to so much trouble.
"Yue'e said that she was provoked and attacked anyone she saw. It is not easy to take her away from Liu County quietly."
Bai Zhao hasn't seen Hua Sanlang himself yet, so he doesn't know how crazy he is.
Hua Sanlang had only been to Zhou Yue'e's place once. He would get angry whenever he saw Hua, and he didn't seem to feel any pain even when his wrists were bleeding from the shackles.
"But the Hua family has some secrets. Hua always wanted to get something from this Hua Sanlang, but unfortunately there has been no progress."
"If that's the case, we really need to take this person away. The Hua family also has secrets."
Bai Jingzhi became interested in the Hua family again.
It was not very satisfying to listen to what Wei Liu said, so it would be better if the person involved could say it out loud.
"The county magistrate and his family have all been taken away. Has anyone found that Hua Sanlang?"
"No! The mechanism here is so sophisticated that not everyone can crack it."
Bai Zhao had great respect for Hua Sanlang. Even the trap set by the county magistrate's wife was not easy to discover.
They were able to succeed that night because of the experience they had in the study.
"Sister Yue'e hasn't come back yet?"
Bai Zhao has confidence in Zhou Yue'e's skills. "She's so smart, nothing will happen to her. After the people above leave, she will come to find me."
"I have an idea now. I want to take this opportunity to stir up trouble between Prince Ming and Prince Li."
