The goal of these brothers who were sent by Hua Long was to find Zhang Yang’s territory. Hua Long was getting ready to attack Zhang Yang.

The few of them carried their rations and headed towards the direction of Zhang Yang’s camp.

At this moment, Li Chen and the others were making the best use of their time to build their houses and courtyards in their camp. Previously, Li Chen and the others had planned to use stones to build their houses, so they had been accumulating stones.

“Li Chen, these stones should be enough for us, right?”

“I think it’s about time. Why don’t we start working?” Li Chen and the others finally began to take action.

This time, Li Chen chose his new home at the edge of the cliff. They first dug a hole in the cliff. Because the cliff was made of stone, this made Li Chen and the others move slowly.

“Li Chen, if this continues, Hua Long and the others might come before we can build it.”

“That’s right. We can’t cut through this stone either, not to mention that we are just using a stone pick.”

Li Chen thought for a moment and finally thought of a solution. He quickly brought his men back to the cave. There was the iron block they needed in the cave.

After searching in the hole, Li Chen actually found explosives. It turned out that the previous developers had also encountered this problem, so they had also transported explosives.

“There’s something!”

Li Chen took back the explosives and handed them to everyone.

“Where did you find it?” Wang Qi said excitedly as she looked at the explosives.

“Of course it’s that hole in the ground. I’ll bring you guys to take a look when I’m free.”

“Okay.”

With the help of the explosives, they quickly dug a deep hole in the cliff wall. Then, they used the stones that they had found long ago to build it outside.

Everyone immediately took action. Some moved the stones, while others were in charge of transporting clay back.

Finally, after a period of hard work, it had a rough shape. Li Chen looked at it and was extremely happy.

“It won’t be easy for Hua Long and the others to come this time!”

“That’s right. This time, it’s a stone house. Besides, we can put things in the hole at the back.”

According to Li Chen and the others’ design, they first built a cave. Then, a house was built outside the cave. This house was where they lived, and the cave at the back was where they placed things. When the time came, they would build a courtyard wall with stones outside.

“Brother, we’re back! We’ve found the place where Zhang Yang is!”

The few people who had gone out to look for Zhang Yang had finally returned. This time, they had found Zhang Yang’s exact location.

“Brother, that brat, Zhang Yang, has stored a lot of things. There’s no need to worry about food and drink there.”

Just as they had said, Zhang Yang had been developing steadily during this period of time. He had already harvested a few grains, and the amount of grain he had stored was enough to feed them for a few years.

In order to prevent Hua Long and the others from attacking, Zhang Yang had also built some fortifications. However, they were all the most basic ones. After hearing the descriptions of his subordinates, Hua Long was extremely happy.

“In that case, what are we waiting for? Let’s go!”

Hua Long immediately led the team and set off in the direction of Zhang Yang.

After a few days of travel, Hua Long and the others approached Zhang Yang’s territory. Hua Long and the others were outside checking the situation around them, preparing to choose a suitable time to attack Zhang Yang and the others.

“Zhang Yang, bad news. Someone is coming from outside!” Someone had already discovered Hua Long and the others and quickly returned to report the situation.

“Who? Who on this island can come here?” Zhang Yang was very surprised. From the time they came here, other than the few people who escaped from Hua Long, no one else had come here.

Zhang Yang also felt a sense of danger in his heart. He felt that the person who came this time was definitely not a good person.

“Quickly go out and take a look. Remember not to alert the enemy.” Zhang Yang asked his brothers to go out and check.

“It’s Hua Long and the others!” The brothers quickly returned to report the situation.

“Hua Long? Why did they come here?” Zhang Yang was shocked. Could it be that they had already subdued Li Chen and the others?

Zhang Yang felt that it would only be disadvantageous for him if he continued like this. Therefore, he made a bold decision.

“Let’s go! Follow me out to meet them!” Zhang Yang led his brothers outside.

When he was outside, he looked at Hua Long and the others. “Hua Long, I know you’re here. Come out.”

Following Zhang Yang’s shout, Hua Long no longer continued hiding. He quickly walked out and laughed loudly at Zhang Yang.

“Haha, how did you know it was me? Brother, you seem to be doing well.”

Hua Long also exchanged a few pleasantries with him. At this moment, Zhang Yang did not want to bother with him because Zhang Yang felt that Hua Long must have something bad to ask of him.

However, Zhang Yang’s initiative had disrupted Hua Long’s plan. Hua Long could only take it one step at a time.

“I brought my brothers out to hunt this time and happened to pass by. I was wondering who it was, so it’s you.”

Hua Long lied. He wanted to take the opportunity to leave this place and think of a way to launch a sneak attack.

“After all, you treated me quite well previously. What exactly do you want? Tell me.”

Faced with Zhang Yang’s questioning, Hua Long did not say much. He still insisted that he was hunting and passed by here. Seeing that, Zhang Yang could not say anything else and could only bid farewell to Hua Long and the others.

Hua Long brought his brothers into the forest.

“Big Brother, what should we do?” Hua Long’s subordinate asked.

“What else can we do? Let’s do it tonight!”

Therefore, Hua Long and the others hid themselves and planned to attack at night. At this moment, Zhang Yang felt that Hua Long’s departure this time was definitely a trap, so he instructed his brothers to be careful.

At night, Hua Long saw that the time was ripe, so he led his brothers to attack Zhang Yang’s camp.

Hua Long and the others held bows and arrows in their hands and carried large machetes on their backs. They were not afraid of exposing themselves at all.

Zhang Yang’s brothers could not withstand Hua Long’s attack at all. Soon, one of them fell into a pool of blood.

“Zhang Yang, what should we do?”

Zhang Yang looked at his fallen brother and felt terrible. He finally made up his mind. “Negotiate with Hua Long.”

Hence, he quickly went out to stop Hua Long, who was about to make a move. “Tell me, what do you want to do?”

Hua Long was overjoyed when he heard this. This was exactly what he wanted. Since that was the case, he wouldn’t be polite.

“Not much. Give me two years’ worth of food!”

“Are you crazy? I only have one and a half years of food at most.”

“Alright! Deal!”

Hua Long knew when to stop. Just like that, he snatched a year and a half worth of food from Zhang Yang. Hua Long smiled happily. The next day, at dawn, he brought his brothers to move the food.

Zhang Yang was furious as he watched Hua Long move away his food bit by bit. He felt that this could not go on.
