Chapter 225 Anxious



For several days in a row, Wu Tieniu saw the village chief looking for Fu Hongxing, and neither of them knew what they were doing.

But the water in the river was getting lower and lower, and he couldn't help but feel anxious and dissatisfied.

He couldn't help but wonder if it was because the village chief's eldest daughter was married in Dongxi Village that he had refused to take people to Dongxi Village to settle scores with them last time.

He subconsciously reached a conclusion in his mind, and naturally, the more he thought about it, the more convinced he became that his thinking was definitely correct.

Once, while drinking with someone, he got drunk and blurted out these thoughts that he had been pondering.

Those who were drinking with Wu Tieniu recalled that the river water had indeed been decreasing over the past few days.

Nowadays, water-carrying teams can only carry water a few times before they have to stop.

There was no way to hide it any longer. In no time, the news spread like wildfire throughout the village. In less than half a day, everyone in the village knew that Dongxi Village was inhuman and had blocked the river, leaving them without water to drink.

Wu Tieniu was initially a little scared. He had promised the village chief not to tell the villagers about this, so as not to cause panic.

But now, when everyone gathered together to ask the village chief for an explanation, they found that Tan Dingguo was not at home.

Then someone urged Wu Tieniu to take charge and lead them to Dongxi Village to settle accounts.

They simply didn't believe it. With so many of them, were they afraid of those bastards from Dongxi Village?

When such despicable methods as blocking river channels and diverting water are used, there's no need to talk about feelings or anything like that.

If they don't clear away the blocked river channel, they'll let the people of Dongxi Village know why the flowers are so red.

The more they talked, the angrier they became, their anger flaring. They grabbed Wu Tieniu, each holding whatever weapon they could find at home, and headed towards Dongxi Village.

Xu Changjiu never expected that Wu Tieniu would make such a mess of things, but no one listened to him no matter how hard he shouted for everyone to calm down.

Instead, someone took the opportunity to push him. Luckily, he managed to steady himself. Otherwise, if someone had stepped on him or his legs while walking past such a group of people, he would have been crippled if not killed.

Xu Changjiu recognized the person who pushed him as Liu Wangcai, who was related to Liu Mei.

He didn't have time to settle accounts with Liu Wangcai; he rushed to Fu Hongxing's house.

“Hongxing’s wife, hurry, go to the mine and find Hongxing. Tell him to come back quickly and that the villagers have gone to Dongxi Village.”

I'm going to the county to find the village chief. If I'm late, something terrible will happen.

Xu Changjiu said anxiously, stamping his feet at Ning Jing.

After saying that, he turned and ran out of the village.

Upon hearing this, Ning Jing immediately thought of the matter of blocking the river and diverting the flow, and it seemed that Fu Hongxing had indeed guessed correctly.

What if the men from the two villages get together and a brawl breaks out, and someone gets hurt?

She quickly told Xiuhua to stay home and take care of her younger siblings, and not to go out.

Then they ran towards the coal mine.

I almost lost my shoes while running so fast.

When she arrived at the entrance of the coal mine, the gatekeeper stopped her.

It was because her hair was all disheveled, and sweat was sticking to the strands of hair on her forehead, making her look almost like a crazy woman.

"Hey, stop right now, what are you doing?"

This is a coal mine; you can't go in unless you're a worker there.

The old man looked Ning Jing up and down, and said with a stern face.
