Chapter 469: Hideout

" What?" Uncle Fu was so startled that he stood up from his seat and he turned to look at Fang Chi who nodded at him before turning to look at Yu Dong. " B...But how is that possible? There was a flood just ten years ago, if another one strikes the village so soon then I am afraid that we won\'t be able to survive. Last time at least half of the villagers were washed away."          

Uncle Fu and Zhu Qian\'s expressions changed.     

No one wanted to die, they were still young and what\'s more —— they weren\'t worried about themselves but their children, they have lived a long time and had a happy life what about their kids? They were still young! How can they leave them alone in this situation?      

" We will do as you say but what are we going to about the shelter?" asked Uncle Fu with a worried voice. " When the flood comes then the entire village will be flooded with water, I would have gone to my sister but I have seen the conditions in the town back when the flood came last time, I am afraid that it wouldn\'t be any different than staying here."      

" You don\'t have to worry about that uncle Fu," said Yu Dong as she stood up from her chair upon seeing the mammies return from the town with Gu Ke Jin. " I was the one who told you about the flood so naturally, I will take care of the shelter and everything else, you just pack what\'s necessary and leave the rest to me."      

Once Gu Ke Jin walked inside the house, Yu Dong quickly explained to her about the flood, she didn\'t say anything about the stalker given that would affect Xiao Hua\'s reputation, she just made an excuse and asked Gu Ke Jin to stay behind so that she could look for a hideout. Since Yu Dong\'s hideout meant a safe place in the case of flood and town violence, Gu Ke Jin agreed at once and stayed behind.      

With Gu Ke Jin guarding the house, Yu Dong wasn\'t worried. Though the girl looked young and tiny, she was ferocious when she fought, this was one of the reasons why she hired her.      

She strode out of the house and then ignored the curious looks from the villagers headed towards the big mountain at the back of the village. Though the mountain wasn\'t really big, it wasn\'t small either with its size, it would be able to stay unaffected by the flood, so Yu Dong with bow and arrow on her back, strolled towards the mountain as if she was going on a hunt, though many looked confused by her actions they didn\'t question her after all, Yu Dong was known for her crazy antics and no one wanted to talk to her when she looked as if someone owed her a thousand taels.      

It wasn\'t that Yu Dong was deliberately trying to keep them at bay, it was just that she had a fierce and heroic appearance, so when she even scowled a little it made many villagers get scared of her. There was simply nothing she could do about it.      

Fortunately, no one cared about her, that way she was able to walk to the big mountain without any problem. Once she reached the top, where the trees were neither dense nor thick, she looked for a quiet and hidden spot—— it wasn\'t easy to find. The trees that she found were either too small or too weak, in the end, she had no other choice but to go a bit deeper into the forest and finally, she found the correct spot.      

Two big and thick gnarled trees stood next to each other with thick veils of ivy covering them. Yu Dong realised that it was a good spot with a few caves surrounding it, so she immediately looked around before taking out a bunch of lumbering material from her space, last time when she was renovating the house, she bought a little too much, she was scared that she will be scolded by Ye Liu for being too prodigal so she hid it in her space, who would have thought that this material would come handy like this?      

Sucking a breath, she moved her hands twisting them around in the air such that the long, thorny strings of ivy and other dangling branches moved before picking the wood lying on the ground. Yu Dong didn\'t have much time so of course, she wasn\'t going to waste it by layering out the entire hideout with her own hands, instead, she made use of her spiritual powers as she controlled the trees and everything that was at her disposal.     

Three hours later, she was finally done with a four-storey tree house.
