Zhou Wanwan sneered:

"You think you can do whatever you want? Why should we give up our Liu Family Village to you?"

"Just because your river is highly poisonous, why don't you go and rob it?"

The officials in that county government had been replaced; they were no longer the same people.

Cheng Xiao has paid off the debt, so he can naturally continue to be the county magistrate. Now he is extremely greedy, and he will appoint anyone with money to an official position.

Jiang Wu smiled faintly and said, "I forgot to tell you, I'm the county magistrate now, so all your houses belong to me."

Then Zhou Wanwan turned her head and saw her uncles Zhou Fu'an and Zhou Fukang standing in the crowd dressed as constables.

Zhou Fu'an looked at Zhou Wanwan and said:

"You should leave Liu Family Village immediately. Zhou Wanwan, we meet again. Are you surprised to see me?"

We're not particularly capable either; your second uncle and I are both constables now.

Your third uncle is now the registrar of the county government. Sigh! It's just that your father didn't amount to anything. It's also your fault. Everyone said you were a jinx, and it really is true."

Zhou Wanwan scoffed, "A jinx? Then you've come into contact with a jinx. You'd better watch out today!"

Jiang Wu shouted loudly:

"Why waste so much time talking to them? Go in and search their house, take everything they own."

And you guys go and demolish that pile of graves, it's kind of scary. And these houses... tsk tsk tsk...

The houses in Liu Family Village are really dilapidated. We'll discard the really bad ones. This whole area will belong to Jiang Family Village from now on.

Oh dear! Jiang Family Village is indeed a bit small, with too little land.

These county officials stormed into the village, looked at the vegetable greenhouses, and said:

"Oh my! What are those? Greenhouses!"

It's full of vegetables, and vegetables are really expensive here these days.

"You're right! I'll pick some first. My kids haven't had vegetables in ages, they've been complaining about it."

Zhou Wanwan looked calmly at Jiang Wu, Zhou Fu'an, and Zhou Fukang and said:

Are you really going to go this far?

These vegetables are fine; you can take them if you want.

But this village belongs to our Liu Family Village. You've driven us away, where are we supposed to live?"

Zhou Wanwan was also anxious. These vegetables in the greenhouses were grown with great effort, and giving them to them would ruin them all.

The constables rushed into the greenhouse, their eyes gleaming with greed; these things could all be exchanged for silver.

Just as they were about to rush into the greenhouse, something kicked them into a ditch.

The constables were all thrown around in a daze.

They shouted, "What is that? How can it be so strong? What is it?"

"I just saw a white shadow. Do you think... do you think this place is haunted?"

"Don't scare yourself, let's try again."

These constables, refusing to believe in evil spirits, continued to rush in, but suddenly they were surrounded by vines, which then bound their feet and pulled them deeper into the woods.

Soon they were all hanging upside down from the tree, and the constables were truly terrified.

"Do you think it's a ghost? We didn't see anyone at all."

"Yes, I also feel something's not right."

Zhou Fukang sneered, "These are just some tricks. Someone is definitely dragging us forward. Don't scare yourself so easily."

Zhou Fu'an asked in a panic, "What do we do now?"

Zhou Fukang said softly, "Let's just wait for the outsiders to come and rescue us. Is Liu Family Village rebelling? How dare they treat us like this?"

Zhou Fu'an shouted, "It's all that bitch Zhou Wanwan's fault! She's a jinx; nothing good ever comes from seeing her!"

The Old Scholar Tree was furious. "How dare these people slander Wanwan? They're tired of living! Today I'll show them what I'm capable of!"

The Old Scholar Tree started pulling and tugging at the vines, sometimes throwing them high up, sometimes slamming them to the ground.

They all experienced the joy of jumping down the stairs, and by the time Zhou Wanwan arrived, they were all vomiting uncontrollably.

Zhou Fu'an vomited with a "Ugh," saying, "Zhou Wanwan, you... what kind of trap did you set up to make you so strong? Ugh... ugh..."

Zhou Wanwan coughed and said:

"Uncle, I think you're really enjoying yourself. Ah! The Liu Family did build a lot of mechanisms here."

I don't know where these organizations come from, but touching them would definitely be unpleasant.

Ugh! You guys smell terrible, I'd better go out first!

Zhou Wanwan ignored them and simply left.

Jiang Wu waited at the door for a while and said, "What are these people doing? Why haven't they come out yet? You guys go in and take a look."

They went in and circled around and around in the woods, but couldn't find the exit at all.

The Old Scholar Tree chuckled and said, "Old buddies, you're here too? These fools probably won't be able to find their way out today, since we've blocked the exit."

"Hahahaha... That's right! They're the ones who tried to mess with Wanwan; let's teach them a lesson they won't forget."

Several trees in this forest have lived on the mountain for thousands of years. Zhou Wanwan invited them back. These trees not only love water, but also love the spiritual energy emanating from Zhou Wanwan.

For these ancient trees, which are thousands of years old, this spiritual power can make them younger and younger, and can even allow them to be pulled out of the roots and move freely.

Zhou Wanwan comes here for an hour every night to give the tree more nutrients.

That's why these trees are so indignant now; anyone who dares to mess with Zhou Wanwan is going against them.

"Hey! I think this village is really weird. I clearly remember the exit is here, but I can't find the way out!"

"I also felt something was off; I felt like something was watching us."

Suddenly, they saw something white fly through the trees. The group trembled with fear. "A ghost... did you see that? Am I blind?"

"No, I saw it too. It was terrifying. I want to go home."

"Waaaaah... I feel so scared! We've been wandering around for over an hour, and we still haven't found a way out!"

Jiang Wu said impatiently, "These useless fools, let's go in and see what's going on."

Those around him said:

"Master Jiang, shall we just give up? So many people have gone in and haven't come out yet. Do you think there might be a trap in there?"

"Won't our people get killed by the people from Liu Family Village?"

Liu Xiuyuan looked at them and said:

"Don't talk nonsense. Where would we from Liu Family Village get the audacity to kill government officials?"

The people of Liu Family Village have always kept to themselves and never interfered with each other.

"If you hadn't insisted on causing trouble for us today, this wouldn't have happened!"
