"I-it's true. Word just came from the front by carrier pigeon.
"They said that Tang Wen was like some immortal. He actually brought out an enormous frame and set it on the ground.
"Afterward, they started putting up some smaller frames," Su Xin said.
"They're just building houses. What's so strange about that? Since this is Tang Wen's island, of course he needs to build houses to live in," Li Liufeng said casually.
