"If I tell you to go, just follow me. How can I, as your brother, harm you?"

"Will it all pass if you just endure it? Why do you have to leave your homeland?

Who said it’s better outside, making you so eager to leave?

Haven't you heard the old people say that foreign monks can chant sutras? All that is said is false."

Dou Dashu didn't want to leave his hometown. He thought he could just hold on and it would pass. However, he didn't know how dangerous this time could be and it might even kill him.

Wen Meijiu knew that there was a three-year drought in history, but Dou Dashu didn't know, and she couldn't tell him.

Seeing that Zhang Can wasting time and failing to persuade Dou Dashu, she felt anxious for Zhang Can and finally couldn't help but interrupt from behind.

"Brother, we can't make it. Look at the weather this year. Not a drop of rain has fallen yet. We're going to have a drought!"

Wen Meijiu stretched his face in front of Dou Dashu, which scared him. A head suddenly appeared and interrupted him, and he couldn't help but take a step back.

"Brother, don't be afraid. I don't eat people."

Wen Meijiu looked at him with a smile on his face, full of friendliness.

Dou Dashu didn't notice it at first, but he made a subconscious move just because someone suddenly appeared.

After he took a close look at Wen Meijiu's face, his eyes suddenly widened. Isn't this the young man who injured him with a hidden weapon?

How did he appear here?

It’s over, has this come to me?

"Brother, let's go quickly."

Dou Dashu turned around and was about to run, but Zhang Can grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back from behind.

"My new girl."

Zhang Can felt very embarrassed. He took his hands off the back of Dou Dashu's collar and helped him tidy up the tattered clothes in front of him.

"Sister?"

Dou Dashu pointed at Wen Meijiu's face and asked Zhang Can in disbelief.

Zhang Can nodded awkwardly, waiting for Dou Dashu's unpredictable reaction.

"No, brother, you are being too careless, aren't you?"

Dou Dashu turned around a few times on the ground, and finally an idea flashed through his mind, and he suddenly stood still again.

At first, Dou Dashu thought, it’s too unfair for you to exchange my arm for a girl.

But on second thought, Dou Dashu felt that how could Zhang Can, such a smart man, recognize a thief as his sister? Could this be his strategy of advancing to retreat?

Pulling Zhang Can aside, Dou Dashu lowered his voice and asked:

“Brother, are you trying to dig a hole for her?

Now it's a fake surrender, right?"

Zhang Can's mouth twitched, and he looked at Dou Dashu with an incredible look and asked:

“Who surrenders to whom?”

Dou Dashu looked back at Wen Meijiu, licked his lips, retracted his gaze, and whispered:

"Of course you surrendered to her. Even though she looks small, look at my arm. Wasn't it injured by her?"

"You also know that he is so powerful at such a young age. How can I pretend to surrender so that he won't see through it?"

This question stunned Dou Dashu.

Yes, she was so young, and a woman, but facing so many grown men, she didn't show any fear on her face and she even defeated them all.

Dou Dashu licked his lips and had no way to argue, so he turned around and secretly looked at Wen Meijiu.

Wen Meijiu was also watching them at this time. After catching Dou Dashu's humorous look, he couldn't help but want to go up and tease him.

"No, brother, why do I feel that this matter is still unreliable?"

At this time, Dou Dashu had already put aside his doubts about Wen Meijiu's sincerity, but it was not easy for him to say it directly, so he wanted to change the subject.

He was saying that it was unreliable to go far away from home. Zhang Can hadn't yet figured out what he had just said and thought he was saying that it was unreliable to warm the wine.

"You still don't trust my judgment. When have I ever made a mistake in judging someone?"

Zhang Can was still trying to explain earnestly to Dou Dashu, when suddenly another head popped up in front of them.

"Hey, are you saying bad things about me to my eldest brother?"

Wen Meijiu stared at Dou Dashu's face with a serious and hostile look.

Dou Dashu stood at attention instantly, which even scared Zhang Can beside him.

"No, no, no, no, girl, you think too much."

Dou Dashu's smile was insincere. He had already seen how powerful Wen Meijiu was, and he didn't dare to offend her in person again.

If it is true as Zhang Can said, that she has become his "sister", it is better to resolve a feud than to create one, so this can be considered a good thing.

At the very least, Zhang Can could make her stop hating him and stop using that mysterious hidden weapon to hurt him.

"No? Then what are you talking about with my eldest brother?"

Wen Meijiu only now felt that Dou Dashu in front of him was silly.

"I, I said, I discussed with my eldest brother about leaving Minhuang County."

Wen Meijiu looked at him suspiciously, with his hands on his waist, and asked deliberately:

"If you lie, your other arm will bloom. Tell me, do you agree to leave here or not?"

"Of course."

As soon as he said this, Dou Dashu realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly added:

"Of course I have to listen to Brother Zhang. I will do whatever he tells me to do."

"I think you are sensible. I won't bother you any more. Please continue."

Wen Meijiu turned and left. This Dou Dashu was quite funny. She scared him but he actually took it seriously. She couldn't stop laughing.

At first she tried to hold back her voice, but later it became too hard, so she covered her mouth and laughed quietly.

"Look, look at Big Brother, she is always pushing the envelope and is very aggressive."

While counting quietly, Dou Dashu turned around to look at Zhang Can's face.

"I still say the same thing, if you follow me, you won't suffer any loss.

Are you going to leave or not?"

Dou Dashu no longer had any temper at this moment. He forced a rare smile at Zhang Can and said:

"Let's go, aren't we brothers together wherever we go?"

This sounds like a human thing to say. Zhang Can pushed him aside and said:

"Then hurry up and take action immediately. We'll meet at the usual place afterwards."

Zhang Can left without looking back. Dou Dashu returned to his hidden place, still regretting his rash words and for agreeing to Zhang Can's request so quickly.

"Girl, it's your turn."

Seeing the carriages in front being pulled in one by one, Zhang Can's eyes became more shrewd and he spoke quietly to Wen Meijiu.

"Ok, I know."

According to the original plan, Wen Meijiu would have to wait a while and then find a way to break in and get Cheng Lu's badge to leave the city.

"Have you figured out a way to get in?"

Wen Meijiu didn't mention any details in the plan, which made Zhang Can a little worried.

"Ah."

Wen Meijiu was still staring quietly at the small door leading to the entrance, her eyes motionless, making people feel that her mind was empty and she had no thoughts at the moment.

"What's the solution? Tell me what you want to do!"

Zhang Can was a little anxious. It was her turn to go in soon, and she hadn't figured out a solution yet. How could he feel at ease?
