The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 491 A moth flies into the flame

"Didn't those two bastards really want me to lead the people near the dike? Well then, I'll do just that, and I'll get what I want." Chen Er said through gritted teeth.

Everyone present felt something was off. What was wrong with Chen Er? Had he lost his mind? He clearly knew all about Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting.

A conspiracy between two people, yet Chen Er recklessly throws himself into it like a moth to a flame. In the end, who benefits? And who suffers the consequences?

They couldn't understand why Chen Er had made this choice this time: "Lord Chen Er, please calm down. I know you hate it too, but we already know."

“Those two are trying to frame you. If you continue like this, not only will ordinary people die, but you and Lord Zhang Shaoqing will also perish,” Ma Qiangshuai said first.

Just as Chen Er was chatting and laughing, sure enough, a guard with a sword came running over from outside, panting as he spoke.

"Lord Chen Er, something bad has happened! Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting have already led the people to the vicinity of the dike. What are your instructions?"

Chen Er's brows furrowed involuntarily. Although some of the dikes had been repaired, there were still a few that Chen Er couldn't handle alone due to time constraints.

So there's no repair yet. Chen Er didn't expect that Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting, the leaders of this group, would become increasingly audacious.

But why should he and Zhang Shaoqing be allowed to make decisions on his behalf? Chen Er was immediately enraged.

"Ma Dazhi, Liu Chengdong, you two hurry up and bring your men with me to take a look. Today, I'm going to fight these two bastards to the death."

Chen Er was truly furious. How could he let these two bastards get away with causing trouble right under his nose?

Chen Er felt that these two were simply courting death, and he was determined to kill them both in Jiangnan, so that they would not be allowed to continue harming people.

Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong exchanged a glance, both feeling their blood boiling. They both knew exactly what was going on.

Chen Er is now extremely angry, and the consequences of Chen Er's anger can be very serious.

At this moment, Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting were still here, earnestly persuading some ordinary people.

“You all go to the dam. I’ve already chosen good places for you there. The flood is coming soon. Look how low-lying your current location is.”

"When the flood comes, this place will be the first to be destroyed," Sun Yunhe said casually, though he was actually very uneasy inside.

What kind of situation is this? Chen Er is clearly the lowest-ranking official here, so why should I and Qin Zhongting have to take orders from Chen Er? This is an unfair game.

However, there was nothing he could do. Sun Yunhe was already quite content. If it weren't for the fact that Wei Zhongxian had given him a get-out-of-jail-free card before he was to come himself, he would have been satisfied.

Sun Yunhe probably doesn't even exist here anymore; he's already been captured and killed. So now, he hates Chen Er intensely and wishes he could kill Chen Er right now.

Only in this way could they vent their anger. Therefore, Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting discussed it and immediately felt that the plan needed to be implemented ahead of schedule.

They wanted to catch Chen Er off guard and teach him a lesson, so the two of them came over, hoping to persuade more people to go to the dam.

"The more ordinary people die, the more dangerous it will be for Chen Er and Qin Zhongting," an old man said angrily.

“We won’t go. Chen Er gave the order yesterday: none of us are allowed to approach the dam without Chen Er’s permission.”

"So we'll wait here for Lord Chen Er to arrive. If Lord Chen Er tells us to go, we'll go; if Lord Chen Er tells us not to go, we won't go."

The old man's words were immediately agreed upon by the people.

Sun Yunhe's teeth were practically falling off from being bitten so hard. He was starting to admire Chen Er. He couldn't understand how Chen Er had managed to win over so many people.

They all obeyed Chen Er's orders, ignoring even their own words. Although Sun Yunhe was furious, he had to move forward with his plan.

Sun Yunhe didn't want to waste any more time talking to these common people. Fortunately, he had brought quite a few of his men with him this time.

“None of you are willing to go. You would rather die here than not wait for Chen Er to arrive. If he does, then suppress all these people. I am doing this for their own good.”

Sun Yunhe said coldly. This was all he could do now, forcibly taking these people there.

The more people Sun Yunhe took away, the more confident he became. The common people were dumbfounded. They never expected Sun Yunhe to turn against them. Moreover, seeing the gleaming knives in the hands of Sun Yunhe's men, the common people were truly afraid. To put it bluntly, they were just ordinary people who toiled in the fields every day, just trying to fill their stomachs.

Now that things have come to this point, they know very well that they can no longer resist.

"What are you all doing? Lord Sun Yunhe will be here to save us soon. Everyone, go to the dam first. We must trust Lord Chen Er's power."

The old man who had spoken earlier also understood that now was definitely not the time to struggle.

They told him to go, so he had no choice but to agree. Once Chen Er appeared, they would all be safe.

These ordinary people also knew that if they didn't obey the orders of these bad guys, their men would probably cut off their necks in the next second.

Therefore, the common people did not dare to act recklessly. When they arrived at the dam, Sun Yunhe and Qin Zhongting couldn't help but smile.

Because they knew that their plan had taken another step forward, but unfortunately they had a slight doubt because they hadn't seen the other dikes.

Surprisingly, Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong, accompanied by many armed guards, stood there, as if they were preventing any commoners from approaching.

This made Sun Yunhe feel a little uneasy, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood: it's all your dams anyway.
