After being hit twice at the previous wedding, Nanzhai gradually recovered its strength under the management of Xuxu and Liu Qingfeng, but the number of people was almost halved, and the labor force in the village was also much smaller.
Fortunately, everyone is united and has not given up hope of life. There are fewer people and less need for food. Fortunately, we can still hold on.
Recently, five people came to the village. It is said that they are from the village west of Xincheng. They want to get to know Nanzhai and cooperate with them if there is a chance.
The eldest among these five people is a wind ability user named Jiao Ziqi, who is the leader of the West Village.
He felt that his village had grown big enough, so he thought about recruiting some people with abilities to come and run the village.
The remaining three men and one woman are also capable people. They look very young and are very polite and decent in the village. Judging from their words and deeds, you can tell that they were once young ladies from a wealthy family with strict upbringing.
Xuxu and the others still received each other warmly.
After living there for a few days, the other party expressed their intention to merge, but Xuxu declined after careful consideration.
They had experienced what it was like to live under someone else's roof in Ningcheng. With a boss who had a bad brain, their lives were in dire straits.
Although it takes a lot of effort to manage things by yourself, at least you can live a more satisfactory life.
Jiao Ziqi, who looked like a wealthy young man at first glance, even though his face stiffened when he heard her declining his proposal, he still expressed his understanding very well.
"It's been a pleasure getting along with each other these days. We don't do business in a righteous way. We will inevitably need to help each other in the future. The same goes for walking around more."
I have to say that the only son of a big businessman has a very good way of speaking.
Xuxu also smiled: "What Master Jiao Village said is that we will move around more in the future."
Shi Lingyao and his party arrived at Nanzhai at this time.
As soon as Xuxu saw them, his eyes lit up and he ran over: "Doctor Shi! You are back!"
Two voices from behind, a man and a woman, sounded at the same time——
"Shi Lingyao?" A female voice said with hatred and disbelief.
"Yaoyao?!" A surprised male voice.
A wave of cold air spread out, and eyes with murderous intent fell directly on the handsome man.
The handsome man named Jiao Ziqi was keenly aware of this murderous intent and looked at Jing Hexuan with a slightly displeased expression.
There are really few hostile men who can feel calm after seeing Jing Hexuan's height and aura.
The momentum of the tyrant and the god of murder should not be underestimated.
Xuxu was stunned, then turned to look at the five men and women behind him with different expressions: "Do you know Dr. Shi?"
Jiao Ziqi had regained her mood and came over with a happy face: "Of course we know each other! Yaoyao and I are classmates! I didn't expect this final day of separation..."
"Mr. Jiao," Shi Lingyao interrupted with a calm expression, "I'm not familiar with you enough to call you by small letters."
Jiao Ziqi's face froze, she pretended not to hear, and changed the subject: "It's been so long! Are you okay? I have a village in the west, do you want to come and live with me..."
As he spoke, he took another step forward, subconsciously wanting to reach out and hold her hand.
She had no expression on her face and refused to evade. Lin Yan stepped in with a big stride and shouted:
"Hey, hey! Just keep talking and don't get so close. Are we familiar with you?"
Jiao Ziqi made a move and looked displeased: "Who are you?"
Lin Yan raised his chin proudly: "I am one of the captains of Doctor Shi's family!"
Jiao Ziqi looked unbelieving: "You still have a village of your own? At what age does the patrol still need a captain?"
Lin Yan sneered: "Are you ignorant? Taoyuan City always knows, right?"
Before Jiao Ziqi could say anything, the only girl, Zheng Xuan, screamed: "You are from Taoyuan City? Impossible?!"
Lin Yan looked at her: "What's impossible? Just because you can't do it doesn't mean that my Dr. Shi can't do it, right? Our Dr. Shi is the city lord!"
"City Lord?! It turns out that you, a bitch, made some bullshit rules!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Tian suddenly jumped out from behind everyone and let out a long and powerful tiger roar at Zheng Xuan!
Everyone on the other side turned pale with fright, and all took a few steps back!
"This, so big..."
Someone in Nanzhai exclaimed.
But soon everyone saw that this huge white tiger was clearly protecting Shi Lingyao.
She stood in front of Shi Lingyao, crouching down and staring at Zheng Xuan with bared teeth, ready to go.
Zheng Xuan's face turned pale and she took several steps back, trembling her lips and not daring to speak any more.
Xuxu was startled, but seeing that the huge white tiger, which was taller than her chest, paid no attention to her, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Such a big white tiger."
Jiao Ziqi, who was approaching but was stopped by Lin Yan, was originally unwilling to retreat, but was frightened by the white tiger that suddenly rushed out. She immediately took a few big steps and retreated to her companion.
Shi Lingyao took a step forward, raised his hand and put it on Bai Hu's big head, patting it comfortingly.
Everyone saw that the white tiger, who still had a ferocious look on his face, immediately restrained his sharp teeth, turned his head and rubbed her belly like a big cat, and made a cat-like sound of "purring" in his throat.
Xuxu smoothed things over: "Doctor Shi went out to do some business and hasn't been home for a while. Is there any misunderstanding?"
Liu Qingfeng also quickly stood up: "Yes, yes, we are all fellow human beings. Let's not take action whenever we disagree. It will hurt the peace."
Zheng Xuan may have seen Bai Hu give up his power, and said bitterly:
"We have been to Jincheng before and want to join Jincheng."
When she heard this, she raised her eyebrows, probably knowing what happened.
"With our ability, it's more than enough to join a city, right? But that guard actually rejected us! And he said it was the rules of Taoyuan City! What bullshit rules!"
Zheng Xuan gritted her teeth, looking like she was dying of hatred.
She looked confused: "Aren't you very powerful? You still want to annex others everywhere. How could you think of joining a city?"
Zheng Xuan choked.
A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth: "You don't have anything fishy, do you?"
"You fart!" Zheng Xuan shouted angrily.
Before she could continue to curse, Bai Hu roared: "Ho--"
Zheng Xuan was filled with anger and was choked in her throat. Her face turned red and she looked like she was about to die of anger.
She rubbed the white tiger's ears slowly: "I suggest you speak politely and don't spray shit. After all, this guy is so big. I can't hold him back if he tries to charge at me."
Zheng Xuan's face turned pale when she met Bai Hu's ferocious gaze. She turned to look at Jiao Ziqi, stamped her feet angrily, and complained in a coquettish tone: "Brother Qi! Look at her!"
Jiao Ziqi forced herself to smile and smooth things over: "Zheng Xuan was too anxious and didn't care that her tone was a bit unpleasant. Yaoyao, please stay away..."
"Brother Qi! You always call me Xuanxuan! Why do you call me by my first and last name as soon as this bitch, Shi Lingyao, appears?!"
Before Jiao Ziqi could finish her words, Zheng Xuan stopped.
As he spoke, the man glared at her hatefully. His jealous tone was audible to anyone, and the strong sourness and resentment was overwhelming.
Lin Yan immediately added: "That's right! My doctor Shi also said that he's not familiar with you, so don't force a relationship, okay? It's really a bit pricey!"
Jiao Ziqi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but there was a huge white tiger watching him. He did not dare to do anything unfriendly to this group of people, so he turned around and scolded Zheng Xuan.
"Shut up! I'm getting into trouble every day! If I had known, I wouldn't have taken you with me when I went out this time!"
Seeing that a big drama was about to take place and he couldn't enter the house for a while, Jing Hexuan silently took out an oil-paper umbrella, stepped forward and stood beside her, holding the umbrella for her.
She turned her head and glanced, without speaking or avoiding.
Jing Hexuan's expression softened instantly, and the corners of his mouth moved and then lowered.
Zheng Xuan looked in disbelief, her body swayed, tears streaming down her face, she looked at Jiao Ziqi with a fragile and sad face, and choked with sobs: "Brother Qi, is it too much to say that to me? It was you who said you would take good care of me. Woohoo, take care of me..."
