The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 277: Former Villagers, Harbouring Bad Intentions
Old Man Yang stopped immediately and looked carefully at the people who surrounded the three of them.

Upon seeing this, he was immediately surprised.

"Second Guoqing? Li Damin? Yang Yi? It's you three!"

The three people opposite were suddenly called by their names. They were stunned at first, and then seemed a little angry.

However, when they saw Old Man Yang clearly, they were all surprised.

"Uncle Lin?"

"Old man Yang?"

"It's you?"

Then the three of them looked behind Old Man Yang.

As soon as I noticed the plump figure of Yangmei, my eyes lit up immediately.

Then he looked at Yangmei's face and was immediately surprised again.

"Yangmei?"

"Huh? Is it really bayberry?"

The three of them even ignored Liang Yuan's existence, their faces full of surprise.

Liang Yuan glanced at the three people. The man in the middle was tall and strong, with full muscles and a slightly dark complexion. It was obvious that he was a person who worked all year round.

He had a horse face, a broad nose, slightly large nostrils, and was holding a hoe in his hand.

There were two people behind him, one was only about 1.6 meters tall, with a slicked-back hair, slightly fat, and a pair of shifty eyes, staring at Yang Mei with eyes that seemed to be shining.

The other man was about 1.7 meters tall, with a slim build, wearing a jacket, holding a sickle in his hand, with a buzz cut, and looked a bit sinister.

Old man Yang laughed loudly, walked up to the dark-skinned and muscular man in the middle and said, "Second Guoqing, you are so stupid, don't you know Uncle Lin?"

Then he looked at the man with a buzz cut and asked, "Yang Yi, why do you have a buzz cut?"

Then he looked at the short fat man with slicked back hair and said, "And you, Li Damin, you are still so fat despite such a big disaster. You haven't lost weight. Did your parents save all the delicious food for you?"

After being instructed by the enthusiastic old man Yang, the three men stopped looking surprised and had different expressions with a hint of weirdness.

The three of them looked at each other and laughed in tacit agreement. The dark-skinned, muscular man in the lead, named Er Guoqing, laughed and said, "Uncle Lin, why are you here? Why are you here? Didn't I hear that you were taking care of your grandson in Yangshan?"

Old Man Yang said with emotion: "We are lucky. After the flood, we escaped to Yangshan and finally survived. Little Yangmei wanted to find her parents, so we came to Meishan."

"I'm old now, and I want to live with my old friends, so I followed them here."

"By the way, do you know where Xiao Yangmei's parents are?"

Yang Mei also came out excitedly at this time and asked, "Brother Yang Yi, do you know where my parents are?"

She did not ask the dark-skinned Er Guoqing, but asked Yang Yi, the sturdy man holding a sickle.

Because among these three people, Er Guoqing and Li Daming both have the surname Li. Er Guoqing's real name is Li Guoxiang, and he has an older brother named Li Guoqing.

No one in the village called him by his real name, Li Guoxiang; they all called him "Second Guoqing".

Neither Li Guoxiang nor Li Daming lived close to Yang Mei's hometown. Instead, Yang Yi lived closer to Yang Mei's hometown, so she asked about Yang Yi.

Yang Yi's eyes flickered slightly, and the short, slightly fat Li Damin said with a smile: "Sister Yangmei, Uncle Youwei and Aunt Fang are both in Yunquan Temple. By the way, why are you alone? Where's Brother Zhiqiang?"

On the second National Day, Li Guoxiang also looked at Yangmei, grinning, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said, "Yangmei, it's been a long time since we last met. Don't you recognize us? Haha, come to think of it, your husband and I are distant relatives. Didn't Zhiqiang come back with you?"

As he said this, he glanced at Liang Yuan calmly.

Liang Yuan remained calm throughout the whole process, silently watching them recognize their relatives and reminisce about the past.

Yang Mei's expression changed slightly. She was almost forgetting the man's name, but these people reminded her of the unbearable and painful past.

She looked evasive and said, "He...he couldn't come back."

Upon hearing this, the three men looked at each other, their mouth corners slightly raised, revealing meaningful smiles.

At this time, Li Guoxiang looked at Liang Yuan who had been silent the whole time, sized him up and down, and asked, "Hey, this brother looks a little unfamiliar. Is he from our village too?"

Liang Yuan nodded slightly: "Yeah, I guess so."

Li Guoxiang was stunned: "Is it?"

The short and fat Li Damin, with his rat eyes, couldn't help but look Liang Yuan up and down.

"No way, brother, you are from our village? How come I have no impression of you at all? Where do you live? What's your name?"

Yang Yi also looked at Liang Yuan with a puzzled look.

Liang Yuan put his arms around Yang Mei's waist and said with a smile, "I am her current man, so why am I not considered a member of Meishan Village?"

The three people opposite were stunned for a moment, and then their faces darkened slightly.

Li Daming subconsciously clenched his fists and glared at Liang Yuan with fiery eyes.

"Yangmei, did this boy threaten you? Did he force you to sleep with him?"

Li Guoxiang also said coldly: "Yangmei, if you have any grievances, tell us."

Yang Yi also shouted immediately: "Boy, who the hell do you think you are from Meishan Village? Let Yang Mei go!"

Old man Yang was shocked, thinking that these three guys really didn't know their place and dared to challenge Liang Yuan.

He quickly advised: "Everyone, everyone, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Little Yangmei was rescued by Mr. Liang. The two of them were in love and came together naturally."

"Bullshit, the fucking flood has only been going on for more than half a year, how can they be so in love?"

"That's right, Yangmei, I watched you grow up, and I believe in you. You definitely can't seduce a man. He forced you to do that, didn't he?"

"Yangmei, tell me the truth. Did he kill Zhiqiang? Damn it, Zhiqiang is my brother. How could you kill Zhiqiang and take his wife away?"

Li Damin, Li Guoxiang and Yang Yi started yelling and surrounded them.

The three of them didn't even give Liang Yuan and the others any explanation and just started to take action right away.

Obviously, they didn't really care whether Liang Yuan and Yang Mei were willing or not.

They just wanted to get rid of this outsider first.

The bayberries in front of them were so delicious that they had already been salivating over them, so they just let it go if they couldn't get them.

If you encounter this, can you still give it to outsiders at a discount?
After saying that, the three of them were ready to take action.

Seeing this, Old Man Yang shouted, "Stop it! You three bastards, do you have any regard for an old man like me?"

As he spoke, he swung his hand and threw out an explosive rune stone!
Boom!

With a loud bang, a ball of fire suddenly exploded.

Li Guoxiang and the other two were so frightened that they quickly retreated.

Among the three, Li Guoxiang and Yang Yi were the fastest, almost jumping several meters away.

The short and fat man Li Damin slowed down a bit, but the fat on his body suddenly tightened up and he suddenly became like a muscular man.

The aftermath of the explosion blew across his body but did not cause him any injuries.

Liang Yuan saw this and immediately concluded that this short and fat man Li Daming should be a person with special abilities that combine strength with some defensive abilities.

Li Guoxiang and the other two retreated quickly, then looked at Old Man Yang in surprise and suspicion.

"Are you a superpower?"

Old Man Yang shouted angrily: "You three little bastards, this old man is not a superpower, are you going to make a scene today?"

"This is Xiao Yangmei's current man. Who do you think you are? What right do you have to criticize Xiao Yangmei?"

"Xiao Yangmei hasn't spoken yet, what do you want?"

"Get lost!"

The eyelids of Li Guoxiang and the other two twitched suddenly, and anger flashed in their eyes.

The three of them looked at each other, not daring to confirm what kind of special abilities Old Man Yang had.

In addition, they also noticed that Liang Yuan did not show any sign of panic from beginning to end.

The three of them felt a little depressed, and immediately thought that since these three people could come to Meishan from the flood, they were most likely people with special abilities.

Three against three, if a fight really comes, it’s hard to say.

Thinking of this, Li Guoxiang immediately laughed and said, "Oh, Uncle Lin, look at you, you are so old, but you still have a bad temper. We are worried that Yangmei will suffer."

Li Damin immediately joined in, his rat eyes narrowed, "Uncle Lin, we just subconsciously stood up for Brother Zhiqiang, we didn't mean anything else. Brother, we're sorry, we got carried away."

Yang Yi also spoke up: "Yang Mei, the brothers are impulsive. Don't you want to find your parents? Let's go, they are at Yunquan Temple."

Yangmei lowered her head and said nothing.

At this moment, she just wanted to find her parents as soon as possible and take them away from Meishan Village.

She didn't want to deal with people she used to know because they would mention Li Zhiqiang over and over again.

Old Man Yang probably understood Yang Mei's thoughts, and immediately said to the three people: "Then why are you still standing there? Lead the way."

Li Guoxiang clenched his fists, a hint of coldness flashed through his eyes, but he forced a smile on his face: "Come on, come on, Uncle Lin, if everyone knew you're back, they would be so happy."

He immediately led the way and winked at Li Daming and Yang Yi.

The two of them understood and silently fell behind, walking on the left and right of Liang Yuan and Yang Mei.

The overall formation was a triangle, and it seemed that the three of them were surrounding Liang Yuan and the other two in the center.

Old man Yang was not suspicious. They were all younger people in the village, and he himself did not think of them in a bad way.

Besides, Liang Yuan was right next to him, so he wasn't worried at all.

After all, he had never seen Liang Yuan's strength with his own eyes, but he had heard about it.

Being able to sweep across the four major refuges in Yangshan, with a master like Liang Yuan around, he naturally has nothing to worry about.

Another thing is that after he went up the mountain, he was imprisoned in the Phoenix Temple and forced to make talisman stones. He had not seen many cruel things, and he did not have a clear understanding of how terrible human nature was.

But unlike him, Yang Mei had already experienced all kinds of evil in Meidu Garden. Her ex-husband Li Zhiqiang was the first person to teach her a lesson.

So when he saw that the three people seemed to be surrounding them, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Liang Yuan, wanting to remind him.

Liang Yuan turned his head to look at Yang Mei. Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak and looked worried, he understood what she was thinking.

Liang Yuan smiled at her and signaled her not to worry.

Only then did Yangmei breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, Li Damin beside Yang Mei suddenly spoke up and said, "Yang Mei, did you come from Yangshan?"

"Yeah." Yangmei didn't want to say more, just hummed.

Li Daming asked, "There are many mutant monsters in this water. Did you encounter any danger on the way?"

Yang Mei said: "Fortunately, we are lucky."

Li Daming frowned, noticing Yang Mei's wariness of him.

"Haha, it's impossible that you are just lucky. You three are all superpowered, right? Otherwise, ordinary people would not have the courage to travel through mountains and rivers."

Li Guoxiang in front suddenly turned around and smiled.

Yang Mei didn't say anything, so Old Man Yang urged her, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? There are so many mutant monsters outside, it must be people with special abilities who dare to come out. Hurry up and lead the way. When will you learn from your brother and be more efficient?"

Li Guoxiang's eyelids twitched suddenly, and anger surged in his heart. He hated it most when people compared him with his brother Li Guoqing.

He grew up living under the shadow of his brother Li Guoqing.

Li Guoqing is the eldest child and the first child of his parents. He has been carefully cared for and given a lot of care and attention since he was young.

When he became the second child, his parents seemed to have lost their patience in raising children. Or perhaps they felt that they had gained experience in raising children themselves, so they were obviously not as attentive to their second son.

In short, Li Guoxiang did not get more attention from his parents, so he was rebellious since he was a child, hoping to attract his parents' attention in this way.

However, over time, he just became a bad boy who was hated by everyone in the village.

But my eldest brother is excellent in every aspect, he is good at studying, and his wife is also a local in the city center.

And he, at such an old age, still has no partner.

Local girls don't like him, and he doesn't want to date girls from other places.

Over time, he became a middle-aged bachelor, but what he hated most was still that others always compared him with his brother.

Old man Yang’s words instantly hurt him.

He walked in front, with cold murderous intent in his eyes.

He held on patiently. Now was not the time to take action. No one knew what special powers these three men had awakened. If the three of them started fighting, they might not be sure of winning.

He said calmly, "Uncle Lin, I am just concerned about you. You know, things are different now. The resources in the shelter are limited, and we have to give priority to those with special abilities."

"If you have any special abilities, you must tell us in advance so that we can report them and arrange work for you when the time comes."

Hearing this, Old Man Yang said, "No need. Yangmei and Mr. Liang don't live here. After finding Yangmei's parents, they plan to return to Yangshan."

Li Guoxiang couldn't help but be surprised, his eyes flickered slightly, and he asked: "Going back? Why? They have a shelter in Yangshan?"

"Yangshan is higher than our Shushan, so how can there be no shelter?"

"Is that so? Uncle Lin, tell me about the Yangshan Shelter." Li Guoxiang said with a smile.

Li Daming and Yang Yi in the back also looked over.

Old Man Yang was about to speak when he suddenly heard Liang Yuan say, "Ladies and Gentlemen, is Yunquan Temple the only shelter here? Have all the people from Meishan Village moved there?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Old Man Yang quickly looked at Li Guoxiang, as this was also something he was more concerned about.

Li Guoxiang frowned when he heard this, and without turning his head, he said, "Yes, everyone has moved up here. Fortunately, we moved early, otherwise we would be in big trouble. The flood has not stopped. If we were late, we might not be able to reach the mountain."

"Who are the people over in Yangshan? Are they from the Yangshan community?" He changed the subject and went back to Yangshan.

Old man Yang was about to speak when he was interrupted by Liang Yuan again.

Liang Yuan asked, "Who is in charge of Yunquan Temple now? Do you have enough food and other supplies?"

Li Guoxiang's eyes turned slightly cold and he turned to look at Liang Yuan.

He felt that the boy did it on purpose.

Liang Yuan smiled back, and Li Guoxiang sneered secretly, “When we get to the temple, you’ll be in trouble.”

He said calmly: "The people in charge are the village chief and the village cadres of the village committee."

Old man Yang couldn't help but shook his head: "What can those guys do? Apart from flattery, they are unreliable."

Li Guoxiang laughed and said meaningfully, "Who do you think would be better to take charge, Uncle Lin?"

"In this situation, someone with ability must step forward." Old Man Yang said subconsciously.

Li Guoxiang laughed, said no more, and walked away with his head down.

The short and fat man Li Damin deliberately fell behind a few steps. He kept looking at Yang Mei's perky buttocks and slender waist with his rat eyes. He licked his lips subconsciously, and a lustful look flashed in his eyes.

Yang Mei's mental strength is not weak, so she naturally feels this kind of gaze.

He couldn't help but turn around subconsciously and looked at Li Daming with a frown.

Li Damin grinned at her and said, "What's wrong, Yangmei?"

Yang Mei said with a cold face, "You go ahead."

Li Daming was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "I'm fat, so I can't walk as fast as you guys, so you guys go first."

Yangmei frowned, but didn't know how to scold the other party.

Liang Yuan turned around, looked at Li Daming indifferently, and said: "Then I think we should just rest here and not rush to Yunquan Temple."

When Li Guoxiang, who was standing in front, heard this, he immediately turned around and scolded Li Daming: "You go ahead."

He didn't want to delay, fearing that the three men would become suspicious, so he just wanted to take them to Yunquan Temple this morning.

Li Daming curled his lips, took one last look at Yang Mei's plump breasts, and walked to the front reluctantly.

Li Guoxiang gave him a warning look, and Li Daming then restrained himself a little.

Then Li Guoxiang walked to the back and said with a smile: "This bastard is not a decent person. Yangmei, don't be angry."

Yang Mei didn't say anything, but just asked, "Are my parents okay?"

Li Guoxiang immediately said, "Great, they are now the big shots in our shelter."

Yang Mei was immediately surprised and asked, "What? Did they awaken their special powers?"

Li Guoxiang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Uncle Youwei has awakened a power-type ability, which is amazing."

Yang Mei was overjoyed, looked at Liang Yuan, and said, "Brother, I didn't expect that my father also awakened his superpowers."

Liang Yuan smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes. He didn't take anything these people said seriously.

To find out the specific situation, you have to go to Yunquan Temple.

After walking for a while, a few more people suddenly appeared in the woods.

"stop!"

"Hey, Daming? Why are you back?"

"Hey, the number of people is wrong, are they... Uncle Lin?"

"Yangmei!"

A few people who came out of the woods saw Old Man Yang and Yang Mei and immediately exclaimed.

These people, without exception, are all strong and healthy.

But there is also a woman here, who stands out among them.

That woman was the first person to notice Yang Mei and the first person to call out Yang Mei's name.

She looked surprised and astonished.

When Yang Mei saw the woman, she was immediately surprised and said, "Erya!"

Yang Erya's real name is Yang Zhen, but everyone in the village calls her Erya.

She has a birthmark on her face, where her right eye is, and has always been very self-conscious.

Yangmei is one of the few playmates in the village who gets along well with her.

She didn't expect to see bayberry here.

Her expression changed, and she suddenly smiled and said, "Yangmei, didn't you move into your new home? Why are you here? Where's your husband?"

As she spoke, she looked at Liang Yuan and raised her eyebrows slightly. This person was not Li Zhiqiang.

Yang Mei was delighted for a moment, but did not answer. Instead, she asked, "Erya, have you seen my parents?"

Yang Erya's eyes flickered, and Li Guoxiang immediately said, "Erya, Uncle Youwei is not on duty today, right? He should be in the temple, right?"

Yang Erya responded and said with a smile: "I'm here, Yangmei. Uncle Youwei has been talking about you. If he sees you, he will be so happy."

Yang Mei's eyes turned red, and she quickly said, "Can you take me to see my parents? I...I miss them too."

Yang Erya looked at Li Guoxiang, and Li Guoxiang smiled and said, "Erya has to go on patrol today, Yangmei, I'll take you there."

Yang Mei looked at Yang Erya, who paused, looked up and said with a smile: "Yang Mei, you go with Brother Guoxiang, I have something else to do."

Yang Mei had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay then, I'll come back to you after I meet my parents."

"Yeah, okay." Yang Erya nodded with a smile.

Liang Yuan didn't say a word the whole time, just watched the group's clumsy performance with interest.

He wanted to see what these people were up to.
