After assigning the upcoming tasks, Lin Youshu, as his adjutant, could keep an eye on everything that followed, while White Butcher continued his Meditation.
Obviously, the little time he had gotten last night had not been enough for him to recover completely.

They would saw the trunks of the large trees into stakes of suitable lengths, drive them into the seabed mud in the shallows, then lay planks across the tops of the stakes to form a bridge-like structure.
