A group of people came menacingly, and it looked like they were coming to compete with their village for water.
Cheng Hanyan frowned slightly, stepped back from walking outside, and took the initiative to go forward and talk to the group of villagers.
"Who are you?" Before Cheng Hanyan could finish his words, the leader of the villagers came over and pushed him away.
"Get out of my way, don't block my way." Cheng Hanyan frowned and stared at the group of people leaving in front of him.
Seeing them heading towards the river, Cheng Hanyan turned around and went to the village chief's house and told the village chief what had just happened.
The village chief immediately called his son: "Hurry up and find some young and capable guys in the village and ask them to pick up some work and go to the river. Someone is coming to our village to grab water."
The village chief turned back and found two handy tools in the kitchen. When he came out, he handed the more lethal woodchopping knife to Cheng Hanyan who was standing outside waiting for him.
"Take it, you are tired of coming to our village to grab water." There is only one village near this river, Chengjia Village.
The original river embankments were built by Chengjia Village with money provided by every household of the villagers. Other villages did not help at all, and they were often laughed at and said that the place where they lived was a water village.
There were floods every year in those years, and Chengjia Village was flooded every time. It was normal for them to be in a low-lying area and prone to stagnant water, so they raised money to dig a river so that all the water could flow along the river.
Flow outward.
If villagers from other villages negotiate with him to borrow water, it's not that he can't give it to them. But to blatantly rob them is really shameless and disrespectful to their village.
If someone really takes away all the water in the village, will the villagers in their village starve to death if they have no water to drink?
The village chief led the people towards the river. Villagers from Chengjia Village came out of their homes in twos and threes holding the tools and followed behind the village chief.
The team behind the village chief grew stronger and stronger. When some people walked to the river, they saw villagers from other villages going down to fetch water with buckets.
The river water that was supposed to be crystal clear was now muddied by them, and everyone stepped in it as if they were snatching food.
There are people upstream and downstream, and some are trashing the water.
This made the village chief Cheng feel extremely distressed. He waved his hand and said, "Come for me. I'll hit everyone on sight, no matter how old or young you are."
The entire village uses this water sparingly. Each household can only carry two buckets of water back, so as not to muddy the river water, let alone pollute the river water.
After all, a little water now is everyone's lifeblood. Even if you come to grab water, you shouldn't waste it like this.
"Why can the people of Chengjia Village guard this river?" someone in the crowd shouted.
I saw someone kicking away the stones that had been built up downstream of the river.
This river still has water today because the village chief had the foresight to discover that the drought was getting worse and he hurriedly found stones to block the river downstream.
If these rivers are not allowed to flow out, the end of the downstream river will be deep mountains and old forests, with no people living nearby and no villages.
Instead of letting the river run dry, it is better to gather it all in this place, which can ensure the livelihood of the villagers in a village.
Someone deliberately opened the stone blocking the place, and the river flowed down as if it was free of charge.
The river that was originally used as a reservoir suddenly lost more than half of its water, and the eyes of the villagers in Chengjia Village turned red instantly.
"Ahhhhhh! Damn you, I'm going to kill you." The river water flowing away is the life of their entire village.
The village chief's son took the lead and rushed towards the villager who was desperately trying to scatter all the stones.
When he came up, he put a chokehold on him and tilted his head to one side, hoping to kill him.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Hanyan immediately came to help. He was worried that the village chief's son might not be careful, so he immediately ran to the village chief of the next village and took control of the man.
To capture the thief first, he captured the king. He first captured the village chief of the next village, and the two groups of villagers who had been fighting for a while stopped at the same time.
The village chief of Chengjia Village followed behind Cheng Hanyan: "Stop everyone!"
Following the roar of the village chief, everyone stopped what they were doing and stopped fighting together.
"How come the people in your Xiaoli Village are so poisonous? A group of people came to our village to grab water. Not only did they pollute the water source, they also forced us villagers in Chengjia Village to have no water to drink. Doing this is harmful to people.
What good does something that is not beneficial to you do you?"
Village Chief Cheng beat his chest sadly and was extremely angry for a moment. When he saw the people in Xiaoli Village in front of him, he wanted to rush forward and beat them all up.
"How can a person's conscience be so bad? If you come to borrow water in a nice way, we won't disagree. Why drag the big guys to die together?" Village Chief Cheng was so angry.
"Let him pay us for his life. Whoever breaks down the stone wall we built up will either have to pay money, food, or his life. Since he doesn't want the big guy to live, he can't be allowed to live either."
A young and strong young man from Chengjia Village came out. The veins on the back of his hand holding the kitchen knife had already burst out. This showed how hard he was holding back and how much he wished he could really kill that person.
The first man in Xiaoli Village to take the lead in doing this is now being strangled by the villagers in Chengjia Village and may be strangled to death at any time.
After hearing these words, he struggled hard twice. The harder he struggled, the tighter his neck was tightened.
"Hanyan, go and call Li Zheng over. They, Xiaoli Village, must give us an explanation for this matter."
The head of Xiaoli Village was driven around the neck with a woodcutter by Cheng Hanyan. He was so trembling that he didn't dare to speak. He could feel the cold blade really sticking to his neck, causing pain in his neck.
"I'll go right away." Cheng Hanyan called a trustworthy person over and handed over the head of Xiaoli Village to the villagers in his own village.
Turn around and run in the direction of Li Zheng.
The village chief of Xiaoli Village was controlled by the people of Chengjia Village, and the villagers of Xiaoli Village did not dare to act rashly.
If Li Zheng is really found, Xiaoli Village will really have to pay money to Chengjia Village.
"This matter was led by our village chief and has nothing to do with me." The villagers in Xiaoli Village immediately dropped their hoes. Seeing that the timing was wrong, they picked up the buckets and prepared to leave.
With the leader taking the lead, other villagers in Xiaoli Village also followed suit, one by one, they shamelessly wiped themselves out and put all the blame on the head of Xiaoli Village.
"It has nothing to do with us. We were all forced to come here by the village chief."
"The village chief heard that you have water in your village, so he organized everyone to come to your village to get some for the sake of living."
