Liao Hua still planned to leave on the third day.

To be honest, he didn't want to leave.

Apart from anything else, the food here is really delicious.

Take fish for example. Why were there so many fish in rivers in ancient times, but no one often ate them?

Firstly, it is difficult to catch fish.

Secondly, it really doesn’t taste good.

There is no cooking wine, onion, ginger, garlic to remove the fishy smell, and there may not even be much salt.

The cooked fish has a fishy smell, and you would only eat this when you have no food.

If there is a little food to eat, not many people are willing to eat fish.

But these days, in Wolong Village, Liao Hua felt that what he was eating was not fish, but dragon meat.

Whether it’s squirrel fish, braised fish, grilled fish, boiled fish, or Tai’an fish, none of them are bad.

If he wasn't afraid that the people in the village would worry if he didn't go back, he could have eaten here for a few more days.

Before leaving, Zhuge Tian threw him a dagger and asked him to keep it for self-defense on the road.

He originally thought it was just an ordinary dagger, but when he pulled it out, he saw his face clearly reflected on the blade.

When you flick it with your hand, it makes a crisp sound.

"You... gave me such a precious sword, aren't you afraid that I won't come back?" Liao Hua looked at Zhuge Tian and asked.

"If you don't want to come back, then don't come back. Anyway, I believe in you." Zhuge Tian waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go. I haven't prepared lunch for you today. Go, go!"

Liao Hua was a little amused and helpless.

Holding the knife, he bowed and said, "Don't worry, I, Liao Hua, will keep my word. Within half a month, I will definitely bring people to surrender."

"Liao Hua?" Zhuge Tian was stunned. He had heard him call himself Yuan Jian these days.

I thought the other person's surname was Yuan and his name was Jian, but I didn't expect it to be Liao Hua.

"Have you heard of my name?" Liao Hua asked after seeing Zhuge Tian's reaction.

"Who has heard of you? No one." Zhuge Tian shook his head: "Aren't you just a bandit leader? You act like you're famous all over the world."

"You!" Liao Hua pointed at Zhuge Tian and gave up.

Here, he couldn't win an argument with the two brothers Zhuge Tian and Zhuge Liang.

As for the other old man Huang who came to eat every day, he could never beat him.

Wrong!

He walked angrily along the same path he came from, following the river towards Deng County.

After walking a few miles, he saw a group of people running to the river. He didn't know what they were doing. He was in a hurry to bring his brothers from the mountain village to Wolong Village, so he didn't pay much attention to them.

The group ran to the river and said to one of the young men, who looked like a young master, "Master Zhong, look, there's really less water here. We brought you here to fish a few days ago!"

Young Master Zhong leaned over to take a look and found that the amount of water in the entire river had indeed decreased a lot.

"It's been raining recently, so it's not dry, but the water's inexplicably low," a farmer said. "I heard people have settled in Wolong Village upstream again. I'm afraid they've diverted the water."

"Hey!" Young Master Zhong tilted his head and looked upstream when he heard it. "My brother-in-law is the Nanyang prefect Cai Mao, also known as Cai Degui. I'm here to guard the Cai family farm at my brother-in-law's request."

"Where did this blind person come from who even dared to steal water from my brother-in-law Cai's family?"

"Master Zhong, please don't be upset!" A thug who looked like a lackey came out and said, "I'll go upstream and let them know that this is Master Zhong's territory."

"Okay, then go ahead and tell them not to be ungrateful!"

Young Master Zhong waved his hand, and the gangster left with a nod and a bow.

But my heart was filled with joy.

I don’t know where this country bumpkin came from, but Young Master Zhong dared to offend him.

If you go up and introduce yourself as Young Master Zhong, you'll probably be able to extort some money from him.

I walked upstream along the river, but was stopped by someone before I had gone far.

"The territory of Wolong Village is just ahead. Please do not enter, my friend!"

Last time, Liao Hua saw the water pump, so this time Zhuge Liang asked his family generals to guard the border of Wolong Village directly.

Anyone who wants to enter Wolong Village will be stopped directly.

"Hey!" The thug grinned, "Where did this peasant come from? How dare you block your grandfather's way?"

"Listen carefully, my master's brother-in-law is the governor of Nanyang. Did you divert the water from this river?"

"Put the water back in my hand right now, and then..."

He rubbed his fingers together and said, "Give me some of your filial piety, and I can even say a few good words for you when I get back."

The two Zhuge family retainers were about to take action after hearing his rude words.

But when he heard the words "Nanyang Prefect", he still hesitated.

The two looked at each other, and one of them said, "I'll go inform the young master."

The gangster took a look and raised the corner of his mouth.

These two are obviously servants. What kind of benefits can be gained from them?

The "young master" they are talking about should be someone who can speak.

Zhuge Tian was telling Zhuge Liang how much water was needed in the rice fields to be most suitable for raising fish when he heard the man coming over and saying that the brother-in-law of the Nanyang prefect had arrived.

"Just hit him out." Zhuge Tian said lightly.

This is the only way to deal with this kind of thing in the end times, because he knows that the appetites of those who come to blackmail him are endless.

If you give in once, there will be a second and a third time.

"Brother, you're right. Just dig it out!" Zhuge Liang said. "This water is for anyone who wants to use. We're upstream, so it's only after we've used it that it's their turn. Besides, the river is full, so there's no question of running out of water."

The general had wanted to beat someone up from the beginning, but after hearing what Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Tian said, he went back happily.

The thugs under Master Zhong hadn't figured out the situation yet. When they saw the general coming back, they thought he wanted to invite them over, so they straightened their clothes and walked forward.

Then he was punched in the eye.

"My master said, get out!"

They originally followed Zhuge Xuan, who was also the prefect of Yuzhang.

Now a gangster under the brother-in-law of the Nanyang prefect wants to take advantage of them?

The gangster was knocked dizzy and it took him a long time to react.

He scrambled back, still swearing, "Just wait for me!"

When he returned to the Cai family's farm, he rushed over to Master Zhong as soon as he saw him, hugged his thighs and cried,

"Master, look at this, look at this! I just mentioned your name, and they beat me up without any reason."

The dark circles under his eyes are the best proof.

"Damn it! Did they tell us who they are?" Young Master Zhong was afraid of running into a tough guy, so he asked anyway.

"I just heard that they were from the Zhuge family."

"Zhuge family?" Master Zhong thought for a moment and shook his head: "Never heard of it!"

"Well, since they don't take me seriously, then let them see how powerful I am!"
