Chapter 239 244. Martial Test of the Good Man
Thinking of this, Jian Cheng'an immediately jumped out of bed, ran to the door, looked out furtively, and saw that it was dawn, which was a good time to escape.
"Let's run before they find out."
Jian Cheng'an turned and whispered to Huo Huai.
Huo Huai shook his head: "I said I would be responsible for her, and if I ran away secretly, what would happen to the horses I traded? I can't be so untrustworthy as this."
Jian Cheng'an couldn't refute what he heard. After thinking for a moment, he offered a sincere suggestion, "Then use all your skills to catch the village chief. That way, you'll kill two birds with one stone. You'll get your wife, and we'll have another formidable general added to our team."
After listening to this, Huo Huai thought this proposal was very good and nodded in agreement.
"Woo"
Suddenly a horn sounded, and the two men walked out the door in confusion, and saw that everyone in the village was running in one direction.
"Let's go and take a look."
After Huo Huai finished speaking, he took the lead and walked forward.
Jian Cheng'an joined in the fun and ran forward with everyone.
Running to the side of a ring, Jian Chengan heard everyone talking.
"What happened? Why did the village chief call us all here?"
"There must be something important to announce."
"Are there more zombies coming?"
"It shouldn't be. None of the loudspeakers in the village are sounding."
"You'll know when the village chief comes."
Huo Huai and Jian Cheng'an stood in the crowd waiting for Luo Yuzhu's arrival with everyone else.
After a while, she appeared in the stilt house wearing a bright red wedding dress.
As soon as Luo Yuzhu appeared, everyone looked at her in confusion.
"What's wrong with the village chief today? Why did you come out wearing a wedding dress?"
"Could it be that someone has already been chosen?"
The atmosphere suddenly became lively, and all the single guys present cheered enthusiastically.
"Village leader, look here, look here."
"Village leader, look at me, look at me."
"Choose me, village chief, choose me. I am the most handsome in the village."
"Choose me, I'm the strongest."
"I am the most obedient."
"I'm the most capable."
Jian Cheng'an had a look of watching the fun, while Huo Huai had a gloomy face and thought to himself: A woman who doesn't recognize people as soon as she puts up her pants.
Luo Yuzhu looked at the gloomy man in the crowd and snorted in her heart.
She made a gesture to everyone, and the crowd, which had been cheering enthusiastically, gradually quieted down. They all looked up at Luo Yuzhu, waiting for her to speak.
"Ahem"
Luo Yuzhu cleared her throat and then spoke loudly, "Thank you all for your kindness in accepting me, Luo Yuzhu, as the village leader. Yesterday, I had already made a preliminary selection of my husband. To test whether he is worthy of being my good man, today, he will accept the challenge of all the suitors in the village. Whoever can defeat him will be my true man."
After Luo Yuzhu finished speaking, there was an uproar in the crowd.
"Who has the village chief taken a fancy to?"
"Not me."
"It's not me either."
"Who is it?"
Huo Huai looked at everyone's aggressive expressions and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, the next second, Luo Yuzhu's clear and loud voice came: "Okay, Huo Huai, come out and meet everyone's challenge."
As soon as Luo Yuzhu finished speaking, everyone looked at Jian Chengan and Huo Huai.
Facing everyone's unfriendly gazes, Jian Cheng'an moved aside disloyally and pointed at Huo Huai.
He gloated in his heart and said: It’s not easy to find a wife!
Under everyone's gaze, Huo Huai strode towards the ring with his head held high.
After standing still, he met Luo Yuzhu's playful gaze, curled the corners of his lips, and was determined to win.
I received my royalties today. I’m so happy. Although it’s only a little, it’s earned through my own efforts and everyone’s support. Thank you all again. I hope more and more people will support me and let my royalties increase!
