"Get lost, I'm talking to you about serious business!" Zhu Zi said with a dark expression, nudging the other person. "Look closely, isn't this the place we came from yesterday?"

The person who was pulled out rubbed his arm in pain, then looked around suspiciously before suddenly realizing what had happened.

"Yeah, I was so busy chatting with them that I really didn't know what to do. This is the place we were in yesterday! We followed this direction, there's no way there's water here!"

"I'm wondering the same thing! If there really is water around here, how come we didn't see it?"

The two whispered to each other.

"Hey, you guys were here yesterday? Isn't this the place Liu Da mentioned that was causing trouble?"

People nearby heard the noise and gathered around.

"What's there to be afraid of in broad daylight? Besides, if you piss me off, one piss and everything's gone!"

"Isn't it said that only children's urine has the desired effect?"

Zhu Zi rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "You think you're so smart?"

"Haha~" Realizing he'd misspoke, the person laughed awkwardly and changed the subject: "You guys really came yesterday?"

"Absolutely true, we were definitely here yesterday, there's absolutely no way there could be water around here!!!" Zhu Zi patted his chest, and the other person nodded in agreement.

"You mean, the village chief lied? But that doesn't make sense. The village chief wouldn't lie to us about something like this. Besides, if we don't find him later, it'll be the village chief who'll be embarrassed, and that won't do him any good!"

The tall man watching asked in confusion.

"So you mean I lied? Then tell me, what good would it do me to lie? I swear to God, I was here yesterday, and I definitely didn't see any water!" Zhu Zi pointed to the sky, cursing and swearing, "If I'm lying, may I be struck by lightning and never get married!"

"That's not what I meant! I didn't say you were lying! Why are you making that solemn oath?"

"So what do you mean?"

"What I mean is that the village chief wouldn't lie to us about this."

"So you're still saying I'm lying!" Zhu Zi pressed on relentlessly.

"Can't you understand human language? No, what I mean is... damn it, whatever you say goes!" the big guy cursed before shutting his mouth.

It seems that Duocheng's claim is true.

Although Zhu Zi was idle and spent his days wandering around the village entrance, he was a fairly honest person and rarely lied.

Moreover, he had sworn a solemn oath that everyone in the village knew that the one who most wanted to get married was Zhu Zi.

They've sworn an oath with this, so it's probably not fake.

You have to understand that back then, the weight of a vow was many times greater than it is now.

Those around him returned to the group with heavy hearts. As his companions inquired with concern, the news spread like wildfire.

Before long, almost everyone knew about it.

The previously quiet queue erupted into noise again.

Hearing the noise, Liu Dexi stopped and looked back in confusion. However, when he saw the village chief looking over, the group immediately lowered their voices.

What happened?

"Liu Qi".

"Father, did you call me?" Liu Qi walked over and asked.

Liu Dexi nodded: "Go and see what happened to the team, why did things suddenly escalate into a commotion?"

"it is good."

Not long after, Liu Qi ran to Liu Dexi's side and whispered, "Zhu Zi came to this place yesterday and said there couldn't be any water nearby. He even swore an oath. Now everyone is suspecting that you lied to them, Father."

"Hehe, there was no water yesterday, but they didn't say there wouldn't be any today." Liu Dexi smugly stroked his beard.

Yesterday, I didn't even get to see the White Immortal Lord. This water was personally bestowed by the Immortal Lord this morning, so of course I couldn't find it yesterday.

"Dad, what do you mean? This water can't possibly gush out overnight like wheat, can it? That's impossible, unless there really are gods." Liu Ping chimed in casually.

immortal?

Liu Qi looked at his father in surprise, as if he had just woken up.

Isn't this the place Liu Da was talking about?

Moreover, last night, Liu Daming clearly stated that he was leaving this morning, and his father also told them to come with him.

But this morning, Dad got up earlier than them, and his health has suddenly improved; he's walked this far without any problems.

Also, why not notify Liu Da and the others?

These questions suddenly connected in Liu Qi's mind at that moment:

Unless, before we arrived, Dad had already met that person, and his illness was truly cured, and Dad was cured along with him!

Seeing Liu Qi's expression, Liu Dexi understood that his son had guessed what was going on, and nodded in agreement.

Having received his father's affirmative answer, Liu Qi was somewhat incredulous, feeling as if the road ahead had become mysterious and unpredictable.

"Liu Ping."

Seeing Liu Ping still talking, Liu Qi realized for the first time that his brother really talked too much, and he stopped Liu Ping.

"oh."

As expected of my own offspring, they actually guessed it.

Liu Dexi was very pleased.

We're almost there, just a hundred meters or so away.

We can't let them get away.

"Liu Qi, go to the back of the line. If anyone tries to leave, try to stop them. At least wait until we reach our destination. If they still want to leave, then let them go!"

"Of course, once we get there, we might not be able to get rid of them even if we try."

"Okay." Liu Qi replied solemnly, and silently walked to the back of the line. He stared intently at the line in front of him, his neck as if it were frozen in place, unable to even twist.

Liu Qineng could vaguely sense that a gaze from the sky was secretly watching him.

At that moment, Bai Li, who was fishing, sneezed.

After this interruption, everyone's enthusiasm was clearly dampened, and every now and then someone would try to sneak away from the group and return to the village, but Liu Qi, who was keeping watch from behind, persuaded them to go back.

Not a single person was missing, and the group fell silent.

"We're almost there!"

Liu Dexi pointed ahead.

"Keep walking straight in this direction, and you'll be there soon. If you can't wait, you can go ahead."

As soon as Liu Dexi finished speaking, several figures rushed over impatiently, including Zhu Zi, who had been holding a grudge.

"It's water! There really is water!!!"

"Haha, what sweet water!"

Cheers erupted from ahead.

Now, the remaining people could no longer contain themselves and rushed forward.

When they arrived at their destination, they saw the crystal-clear, constantly flowing water.

Zhu Zi stood by the water source, his face full of disbelief, muttering to himself.

"Impossible! This can't be! There was definitely no water here yesterday, how did it suddenly appear?"

He was on the verge of tears, and even though he found water, he couldn't feel any joy, because he remembered that he had just made a solemn oath.

"I...I'll never be able to find a wife?"

But at this moment, no one teased Zhu Zi. They rushed to the water source, excitedly cupped their hands and put the water in their mouths. Some of them felt it wasn't enough and even buried their entire heads in the water.
