Bearing the blue sky

Canine teeth?

Is he a lackey?

Zhu Ge wanted to take a deep breath to calm the increasingly raging fire in her heart.

But any action taken at this time will certainly be noticed and interpreted.

He didn't believe that someone who could reach the third realm was as brainless or as sharp-tongued as they appeared on the surface.

So Zhu Ge sighed, "That is indeed my wish, but I dare not ask."

Though it was a sigh, no one knew the flame that had ignited in Zhu Ge's heart.

strength!

It must develop!

We must acquire immense power!

However, Zhu Ge also felt somewhat powerless.

He had just transmigrated and was about to face the Fungus God. Now that the Fungus God had just died, he had been hoping to cultivate for ten or eight years.

As a result, he wasn't even given a year or two, let alone ten or eight years.

This Jingzhe official is up to no good; if not handled properly, he could be even more dangerous than the Fungus God.

However, this is also an opportunity.

If a being at the third realm has good intentions, he might be able to gain some benefits.

In short, let's take it one step at a time... Zhu Ge concealed the sharpness in his eyes.

"Good!" At this moment, the fisherman in the straw raincoat laughed and sat down, picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of Boletus luridus and put it in his mouth, and then greeted Duan Lei and the others:

"Please be seated, everyone. From now on, you will all be my trusted confidants and eyes and ears. This meal is quite delicious, please eat quickly!"

Dining?

Everyone fell silent as they looked at the food covered in dust and the overturned tables and chairs.

"What?" Seeing this, the fisherman in the straw raincoat smiled and put down his chopsticks. "Do I have to beg him three or four times before he'll do me the honor?"

Zhu Ge sighed inwardly, about to say something, when she saw Duan Lei be the first to stand up and put the tables and chairs back in their places.

But most of the benches in the village are made of wood to save timber. You know, firewood is the most important ingredient in firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. Where can you find so much wood for people to use?

Therefore, all of these few tables have been broken due to this change.

So Duan Lei simply sat down on the ground, picked up a wooden plate and started eating, completely ignoring the dust stuck to it. His eating manners were quite unsightly, yet they were very appetizing.

It didn't feel like he was eating anything dirty, but rather a delicacy.

"Haha, good, good, you've got quite the appetite. What's your name?" the fisherman in the straw raincoat asked kindly.

"Everyone calls me Big-bellied Dog because they say I can eat a lot," Duan Lei replied.

"Big-bellied dog? What a great name! Haha, there's still some food on the ground, don't waste it!" The fisherman in the straw raincoat seemed to be in a great mood.

"I used to have a dog, and it loved to eat on the ground, hahaha!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Ge, seemingly unintentionally.

Zhu Ge remained expressionless.

"I'll eat," Duan Lei suddenly said.

He stretched the dusty, dirty chopsticks towards the ground.

"tasty."

This was a piece of cured meat. When it was put into his mouth, the sand and dust melted instantly, followed by a rich, oily aroma that caught Duan Lei's eye.

However, the movement of the throat during swallowing still betrayed the role of the dust.

"Good! Good! Haha, good!" the fisherman in the straw raincoat laughed.

Meanwhile, in the seat next to her, Xianxian was already in tears, but she still covered her mouth to keep herself from making any sound.

Tears washed away the dust from Xianxian's face, leaving several streaks.

"Little girl, are you starving? You're crying from hunger. Come here to your brother." The fisherman in the straw raincoat looked at Xianxian and said, "Brother will feed you."

Xianxian's eyes welled up with tears. She instinctively wanted to shake her head, but in the end, she struggled to get up, her legs shaking.

However, she was probably so frightened that her legs went weak, and she couldn't stand up despite several attempts.

"don't want!"

At this moment, Sui Niang couldn't help but step forward and hug Xian Xian. Her pleading eyes darted back and forth between Yu Xiucai, the fisherman in the straw raincoat, and Zhu Ge, but finally settled on Zhu Ge.

Zhu Ge saw a hint of determination in her pleading eyes.

"Haha, I'm not a jackal or a tiger, what's there to be afraid of?" The fisherman in the straw raincoat shook his head and laughed, picking up his wine cup and taking a sip.

"I just thought the little girl was cute and wanted to hug her."

After saying that, he put down his wine glass and turned his gaze to Sui Niang.

"You people of Yunjiang have slightly darker skin. Although you are not as delicate as the women of Dongting Prefecture, I imagine you will have a certain charm when you dance. Come, young lady, let me teach you to dance."

This time, the fisherman in the straw raincoat spoke up directly:

"The heavy rain is hardly falling, and the drizzle is very sparse!"

"My beloved brother sent a letter asking for a raincoat."

"The raincoat is still there, on the palm tree!"

As he spoke, a peculiar wave rippled outwards.

Zhu Ge instantly felt her body freeze and unable to move. It seemed that Duan Lei and the others were the same, and even Yu Xiucai was.

Only Sui Niang suddenly put down Xian Xian and gracefully stepped forward to stand in front of everyone.

She waved her arms, took steps, and began to dance to the rhythm.

This dance looks like the fleeting shadow and ripples left by a water bird flying across the water; the movements of the hands and feet are quick and rapid, but the opening and closing of the movements are not too large.

It wasn't the revealing, hormone-fueled dance that Zhu Ge had imagined; on the contrary, it was quite subtle, yet it conveyed a sense of life and vitality full of classical beauty.

If you didn't see the scene, the combination of singing and dancing would definitely be a visual and auditory feast.

But at this moment, everyone else was just background noise, except for the fisherman in the straw raincoat who was eating heartily while staring at Sui Niang.

The man could sing and eat at the same time without any problem, and the fisherman in the straw raincoat would even clap his hands and say "wonderful" from time to time.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

The fisherman in the straw raincoat ate with gusto, his mouth greasy: "This coarse food may be simple, but the man is like a leopard in the forest, possessing a unique flavor compared to the water birds of Dongting Lake. Wonderful, truly wonderful!"

The singing gradually stopped after about fifteen minutes.

"This meal is wonderful!" The fisherman in the straw raincoat put down his bowl and chopsticks. There was not a single piece of food left on the table. Even the coriander leaves and other condiments were picked clean. The little bit of oil on the wooden plate was used to soak the rice.

Is this really a life of luxury in the city? Zhu Ge saw this scene while her body was stiff, and she felt that the fisherman in the straw raincoat was eating too cleanly.

"Thump!"

After the fisherman in the straw raincoat stopped singing, Sui Niang's body suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"Mother!!" Xianxian could no longer hold back her sobs and immediately ran over to hug Sui Niang, tears streaming down her face.

Zhu Ge couldn't care less about anything else. She got up and went to help Sui Niang up with Yu Xiucai and the others. Then they stood together and looked at the fisherman in the straw raincoat.

To everyone's surprise, the fisherman in the straw raincoat didn't even glance at them, and turned to walk towards his small boat that was moored outside.

"Today I will rest in the boat; tomorrow I will collect some money and provisions before departing. Zhuge, you should rest for the night, and tomorrow you will travel with me into the mountains!"

The sound came from afar, but the figure had already disappeared from their sight.

"Zhu Ge..." Yu Xiucai looked at Zhu Ge, his eyes full of worry: "Are you really going to become his canine tooth?"

Duan Lei and Ji Fuhui also looked over. Although Sui Niang was weak and tearful, she tried her best to stand up.

"I'm not going. We'll all die." Zhu Ge shook her head.

"If there were many of us, he would not dare to slaughter us, but there are only a few of us, and given the situation just now, even if he killed us all, it would not affect his Daoist or Confucian heart."

"It's all my fault," Yu Xiucai said, his face full of shame.

Just before the meal, Zhu Ge and his group were in the right, since they were very obedient to the fisherman in the straw raincoat.

But Yu Xiucai's sudden outburst of anger gave the fisherman in the straw raincoat a reason and an excuse.

With this reason and excuse, the fisherman in the straw raincoat had a legitimate reason to kill them.

Even if outsiders knew about this place, they probably wouldn't call him a fisherman in a straw raincoat.

This is not a society governed by the rule of law. Here, people like the fisherman in the straw raincoat who wield power do indeed have a real class and status.

"Don't worry, he probably still has something he needs us to do." Zhu Ge patted Yu Xiucai on the shoulder:

"We don't need to say anything more. Just stay put and I'll go with him tomorrow."

Since he had developed divine consciousness at the third realm, he couldn't say much more to Yu Xiucai right now.

At the same time, he was not entirely without room for resistance.

Tonight… Zhu Ge squinted at the moon that was about to appear.

Tonight is the time for him to get his second simulation!
