When he saw two ships coming from the sea, even Hu Xiaolin couldn't help but a trace of suspicion flashed through his heart:

Did they really overreact?

Could it be that the so-called pirates were just created by Li Zhongze to deceive them in order to survive?

...

When Hu Xiaolin couldn't help but doubt himself, Bai Shier looked at the two ships getting closer and closer, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but immediately, he seemed to have thought of something, his face changed drastically, and the suspicion in his eyes immediately turned into nervousness.

"Old Hu, hurry up, let your people ring the bronze bell and let everyone gather here!"

"Why?"

Hu Xiaolin came back to his senses from his self-doubt. After hearing Bai Shier's words, his eyebrows furrowed together, not understanding what Bai Shier's words meant.

"Don't ask more questions, hurry up and do it."

Bai Shier didn't care about explaining so much. After saying this, he immediately used all his strength to get up and galloped towards the guest house.

Hu Xiaolin was still a little down, and I don’t know what happened to Bai Shier.

However, the experience of working with Bai Shier over the past long period of time still made him decide to do what Bai Shier said.

After all, so many things before, it finally proved that Bai Shier was right.

Moreover, because he was worried that his subordinates could not understand it as much as he did, he might ask himself and then waste time again, so he simply ran to the bell and drum tower with all his strength.

...

When Bai Shier came outside the guest house, the loud bell sound came from the direction of the bell and drum tower almost at the same time.

Bai Shier could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the bell, but when he saw Zhu Jinxuan pushing out the door nervously because of hearing the bell, he didn't care much and hurried to Zhu Jinxuan, looked at her eyes, and spoke quickly.

"Quickly, let all the women, young children and those monks evacuate and hide, don't panic, tell them that they should never come out no matter what sound they hear, do you understand?"

"Are those pirates coming?"

Zhu Jinxuan asked quickly in surprise.

But after Bai Shier said that, he turned around and left at full speed again, as if he had not heard her problem at all.

Zhu Jinxuan had no idea of ​​blaming Bai Shier at this time, because she had already known the answer since Bai Shier left so hurriedly.

...

The sudden sound of bell undoubtedly made everyone look strangely in the direction of the bell and drum tower.

The morning bell had already been ringing an hour ago, so why is it ringing again now? Is it someone joking?

But soon, these people remembered the words they heard three days ago, and the strange on their faces instantly turned into horror.

Could it be that the pirates are really here?!

In a panic, many timid people quickly fled to the direction of the guesthouse, wanting to hide first.

The bold man wanted to go to the shore to see what the legendary ferocious pirates looked like.

Smart and prepared people quietly touch the remote or confidential place they have been looking for, begging in their hearts that they will not be caught by the pirates.

...

For a moment, everyone was in panic.

Fortunately, Zhu Jinxuan, who received Bai Shier's reminder, still used her princess' identity to have some effect, which made the crowd panic, but it was not in chaos.

Under the guidance of Zhu Jinxuan and several women with high status, they dispersed in an orderly manner and hid in various places. They raised their ears with nervous expressions and listened to the movements outside.

...

Compared to the women and scribes and monks who were powerless, they had long been gathered together. The monks and guards who had clear instructions gathered together immediately after hearing the bell.

Then he followed Hu Xiaolin to the dock with different thoughts.

But when they saw the two ships on the sea that looked very normal and did not look like pirates, everyone couldn't help but look at Hu Xiaolin, with their eyes either strange, contempt or confusing.

Obviously, they thought Hu Xiaolin was a little crazy.

Otherwise, how could the two, one of them, were the official ships that sailed out from here three days ago, behaved seriously, or rather, were overreacting and ringing the bronze bell to let them gather?

Even the big inner guards under him looked at him strangely at this time, not understanding what his boss was thinking.

Faced with these gazes, Hu Xiaolin felt a little aggrieved:

Don't look at me like this. I'm the same as you think in my heart!

Fortunately, Bai Shier did not let Hu Xiaolin face these gazes alone for too long.

"Okay, don't stand here stupidly anymore. What if the pirates on the boat see so many of you being scared away? Lin Qi and Guan Jiu, hurry up and take all these people behind the courtyard wall to hide them, and then rush out after hearing my signal."

Facing Bai Shier's words that seemed like a dream, everyone looked at him like a lunatic, and many people couldn't help but laugh.

The two people named by him pointed at the two ships on the sea with awkward expression, as if they wanted to remind him:

Brother, this is not a pirate's ship, but an official ship!

"If you want to go, don't you understand human words?"

Fortunately, Hu Xiaolin stood up in time and started cursing at his two subordinates.

Since he had chosen to believe Bai Shier, he decided to believe it to the end.

Moreover, he understood that if he changed his words temporarily, it would only make him look more like a fool.

After all, Bai Shier was right so many times before, what if this time, he was right too?

Under Hu Xiaolin's powerful and scolding, Lin Qi and Guan Jiu left with most of the monks in the yard and all the guards. On the dock were only Bai Shier, Hu Xiaolin and a few monks who were supposed to be guarding the dock.

These monks were originally like others, and they were sneering at Bai Shier and Hu Xiaolin, full of disdain.

But when everyone around them left, they looked at the two official ships getting closer and closer, but suddenly became nervous inexplicably inexplicably.

"Hutongzhi, are these two ships really pirates?"

Finally, a monk couldn't bear the increasingly nervous mood in his heart, and couldn't help but approach Hu Xiaolin and asked in a low voice.

"What do you think?"

Although he was still half-believing and half-doubted about Bai Shier's judgment, looking at Bai Shier's mysterious and confident eyes, Hu Xiaolin also became a little confident, narrowed his eyes and asked deliberately.

"Then, what if it were, if it were on these two ships, it was really pirates, and I, we, would these people be too few?"

The monk, who was even more nervous by Hu Xiaolin's remarks, couldn't help but stutter.

"Ha, don't worry."

Bai Shier, who was beside him, turned his head and looked at him with a "bright" smile on his face.
