early next morning

Hearing Yan Fugui's urging to get ready to leave, Yan Ersheng and his family quickly packed up their belongings.

Yan Shu placed the two empty buckets containing water on the open surface, and placed the remaining set of water jars directly into the space.

Yan Ersheng hitched up the donkey cart, and the family returned to the team.

Soon after, the large army began to leave the valley and continued to the next mountain.

Most of the villagers had not drunk water for two days, their lips were severely chapped, and they looked depressed.

After walking on the mountain road for a whole day, the large group found a temporary resting place.

The number of complaints in the team increased significantly today.

"We can't find the water source. If we continue like this, everyone will die here."

"I'm dying of thirst. I really...can't walk anymore."

"Dad, Mom, I'm so thirsty, I want to drink water."

Some younger children began to cry, and the team of thousands of people instantly became a commotion.

Yan Fugui was helpless when he saw this situation. Everyone had no water to drink, and his body was almost unable to hold on. It was inevitable that some emotions would be vented, but if he didn't continue on his way, he would be dead.

He took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Don't be discouraged, the water source is right in front, we will definitely find it."

Someone said angrily: "That's nice to say, but who knows if there is any water source in this mountain? We haven't had water for two days. If we can find water in three or four days, we will all die of thirst in this mountain." .”

Someone said angrily: "There must be many people in our team secretly hiding water. Can you bear to watch everyone die of thirst?"

At this time, Yan Peng's eyes suddenly looked at Yan Ersheng's family.

"My second uncle's house seems to still have water. Last night I saw with my own eyes that my second aunt boiled half a pot of hot water for cooking."

Yan Daqiang followed and shouted: "Look at the lips of my second brother's family. Those of us who are dehydrated have already chapped lips, but they are still very moist. They are definitely hiding water."

Upon hearing this, all the surrounding villagers came together.

"Er Sheng, please share some of your water with us. We are really thirsty. My child is still young. If he doesn't drink water, he won't be able to hold on!"

An old woman said aggressively: "Er Sheng, we are from the same village, you can't just ignore death."

"Old lady, that's not right. We as several villages are escaping together and we must share the blessings and hardships. If Ersheng's family has water, we can't just look after you, the villagers of Xinghua Village."

"Yes, Erlang is still from our Sake Village. If it weren't for Erlang's help along the way, I'm afraid everyone present would be dead long ago. The water of Ersheng's family also has a share of our Sake Village."

Villagers in several villages immediately started arguing over how to distribute the water at Yan Ersheng's house.

Yan Ersheng glared at Yan Daqiang, Yan Peng and his son with a cold face.

"Everyone, you don't know what the virtues of my eldest brother's family are? Our family's water supply was cut off yesterday. If you don't believe it, you can come to the donkey cart and take a look for yourself."

Fortunately, my daughter had the foresight to hide the jar of water with magic early this morning. In order to be like everyone else, they did not dare to drink water all day long.

The seventh uncle came over with a cane and stared at everyone with a cold face.

"What do you want to do? Even if Er Sheng's family still has some water, it was saved by them themselves. What does it have to do with you?"

"Seventh uncle, we are all dying of thirst. If Yan Ersheng's family has water, we should use it to save our lives."

"That's right, the Ersheng family are all kind-hearted people, and they will definitely not watch everyone die of thirst."

Yan Daqiang shouted: "Everyone, now that I am disabled, my second brother has been eating and drinking well, but he has never thought of helping me, my elder brother. How can he help you? My parents were just watching at the beginning. The second born is a heartless person, so now he favors me in everything, because he is afraid that I will be bullied by the second born a hundred years later, but looking at it now, the second born is really prescient."

After saying this, Yan Daqiang still pretended to be sad.

The villagers need water, and Yan Daqiang is currently on a united front with them. As long as they fan the flames a little, the villagers will start to accuse Yan Ersheng.

"Er Sheng, although your eldest brother is at fault, after all, the bones are broken and the tendons are connected. You can't just ignore him, right?"

"That is to say, how can there be an overnight feud between brothers?"

Yan Ersheng looked at the aggressive villagers with a livid face.

Yan Shu walked up to the Seventh Uncle: "Seventh Uncle, you once said that if my uncle's family dares to cause trouble again, you will kick them out of the team. Does this count?"

"Nature counts."

Yan Shu said: "Then please ask the seventh uncle to go and check the donkey cart in person. If you can find a drop of water on the donkey cart, Yan Daqiang will not be unjust. But if there is no water in the donkey cart, Yan Daqiang's family has slandered and framed us many times. This time it’s time for you to fulfill your promise.”

The seventh uncle is upright in nature, but he cares too much about the family's reputation. He will not easily drive away Yan Daqiang's family unless it is absolutely necessary.

Since Yan Daqiang and Yan Peng came to seek death again today, let them follow their wishes.

The seventh uncle thought for a moment: "Okay, I will check it myself."

He walked to the donkey cart and asked his grandson to search it carefully.

"Grandpa, all the water containers on the donkey cart are empty."

The faces of Yan Peng and Yan Daqiang both darkened.

Yan Peng was full of doubts. It was impossible. Last night, Yan Ersheng, Jiang Ci and the three brothers of the Yan family went out to look for water. After Yan Shu was called away by Xu Shuangxue, he took the opportunity to sneak near the cave and peek for a while.

He saw with his own eyes that Liu Wenniang boiled a pot of water in the cave. There was at least half a bucket of water in the bucket. Why was half the bucket of water used up in one night?

Yan Dahu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the car was empty.

It seemed that Er Sheng had already anticipated that something would happen and had hidden the water in advance.

Yan Dahu said angrily: "Seventh uncle, Yan Daqiang, Yan Peng and his son are deliberately slandering Ersheng's family. You must punish them severely for this matter."

Yan Shu threatened: "If Yan Daqiang and his family don't leave the fleeing team today, then our second family and our family will choose to leave."

Aunt Mei also followed suit.

"Who in Xinghua Village doesn't know the virtues of Yan Daqiang's family? You believe what they say, and you don't bother to think about who led everyone to survive this way. If Ersheng and his family leave the team, I think you Who can reach Xinyang Mansion safe and sound?"

Yan Xiangyang said: "Mom and dad, if Uncle Ersheng's family leaves, our family will also leave with them."

Yan Dahu nodded firmly and said, "That's natural!"

An elder of Xinghua Village hurriedly spoke out to dissuade: "The Ersheng family can't leave. We encountered so many dangers along the way, but it was only thanks to the leadership of Fourth Girl and Erlang that we saved the day. On the contrary, Yan Daqiang's family made no contribution to everyone at all. If he comes out every now and then to act like a monster, he should leave as a family."

The three village chiefs of Qingjiu Village, Beihai Village and Taonan Village also came over.

"We can't let a piece of rotten meat ruin a pot of porridge. Yan Daqiang's family must drive out the fleeing team this time to serve as a warning to others."

"It's all the fault of Yan Daqiang and Yan Peng. If they hadn't said that Ersheng's family had water, we wouldn't have misunderstood Ersheng's family."

"Yan Daqiang's family is just jealous that Ersheng's family is doing well now. They are unbalanced and deliberately discredit the family. Such people are so abominable."

"That's it!"
