Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 783 - 213 What! How could he, Chen Jiusi, possibly (

Village Chief silenced them, "Shut up, everyone! Why? Because his na is Chen Jiusi, because he is the Fishing Guild Leader, because he is a big shot we cannot afford to provoke. In tis like these, it’s us insignificant folk who suffer. If you disagree, go shout it at the entrance of the Fishing Guild in the county town!"

"How can you all be so timid now, shouting nonsense here with vigor, what’s the use? Isn’t it just us common folks who are unlucky? Which big shot will care about our lives?"

"Let tell you, Chen Jiusi is truly outstanding. Even a single hair plucked from him is thicker than your thigh. Are you even qualified to quarrel with him?"

"You only know how to bark like dogs. Hurry up and grab your shovels, and desperately try to block the dam."

As the Village Chief shouted, all the villagers fell silent. Indeed, although they envied Chen Jiusi, compared to him, they were re ants.

Maybe if Chen Jiusi stood before them, they wouldn’t even dare to speak loudly.

At that mont, the Village Chief led everyone to continue raising the height of the levee with their shovels, but the water was about to overflow the levee, and it was evident they couldn’t hold it back any longer. The destruction of the levee seed inevitable.

The Village Chief exclaid, "No way to stop it, we must evacuate the villagers quickly. Forget the houses, saving lives is what matters."

Upon hearing this, the villagers let out a pained wail. The feeling of powerlessness as their hos were about to be destroyed made them feel as if the very sky was collapsing.

The Village Chief watched the floodwaters about to breach the levee and helplessly closed his eyes. It was over; everything was over. The flood would engulf the houses, courtyards, crops, and thousands of people in their town.

However, just as he thought all was lost,

Suddenly soone shouted, "Hey, look, the water, the water level is dropping!"

"Ah, it’s true, look, the water, the water level is dropping!"

Hearing this, the Village Chief opened his eyes in shock, "What!"

"Niu Baoheng, look quickly, the water, the water level is dropping, it’s dropping!"

Niu Baoheng imdiately went to the levee and saw the water level dropping frantically. The levee was saved, their village was saved!

Thinking this, Niu Baoheng’s face lit up with joy, and so did the villagers below who heard the good news. Their hos were saved, and they all hugged each other and cheered.

"Ah, saved, saved, the heavens have eyes, the heavens have eyes!"

Listening to their excited shouts, Niu Baoheng’s face was full of joy. However, at the sa ti, he wondered why the water level had suddenly dropped.

As he pondered without understanding, suddenly he saw a villager running back like crazy, yelling, "Xiantao, Xiantao..."

Niu Baoheng imdiately supported him, "What’s wrong with Xiantao?"

At this, the villager shouted excitedly, "Xiantao Village, they’ve created a flood discharge!"

"What!"

Upon hearing this, not just the Village Chief, but all the surrounding people widened their eyes. Niu Baoheng frowned and said, "How is that possible? That’s Chen Jiusi’s hotown; the Fishing Guild didn’t secure the levee?"

The villager shook his head, full of admiration, "No, it’s not that the Fishing Guild hadn’t secured the levee, but Chen, Guild Leader Chen himself dug through the levee, allowing the floodwaters to be diverted into his own ho!"

"What!!!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present widened their eyes in disbelief, "How is this possible!"

"Chen, Chen Jiu, no, Guild Leader Chen, the Fishing Guild Leader, personally dug through Xiantao Village’s levee?"

Niu Baoheng asked again, and the villager said, "Yes, I witnessed it myself. At that ti, Master Zhou from the Fishing Guild, and all the guild mbers were tearfully pleading with Guild Leader Chen not to do this, but Guild Leader Chen said..."

"What did he say!"

The villagers also looked eagerly at him, wanting to hear what exactly Chen Jiusi had said.

And the villager shouted excitedly, "Guild Leader Chen said he is the Guild Leader of the Mianshui Fishing Guild, and the people of Mianshui County are his brothers and sisters. Today, when the flood ca, if anyone was to be flooded, it should be his ho first!"

As the villager spoke, everyone around was stunned.

If anyone was to be flooded, it should be his ho first ... Xiantao Village had Chen Jiusi’s ancestral tombs and the Chen Family Ancestral Hall.

Chen Jiusi truly had the people’s interests at heart; he was even willing to sacrifice his own ho.

Niu Baoheng’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t contain himself for a long ti. The next mont, he knelt to the ground, facing the direction of Xiantao Village.

Seeing Niu Baoheng kneel, the rest of the villagers also knelt down. At that ti, Niu Baoheng seed to see Chen Jiusi, the one who resolutely broke open the levee allowing the flood to inundate his hotown.

He appeared to be standing there, exuding a divine radiance.

Niu Baoheng knocked his forehead to the ground, "Thank you, Guild Leader Chen, for saving our lives!"

The villagers behind him also respectfully kowtowed, "Thank you, Guild Leader Chen, for saving our lives!"

At that mont, the people from Zhang Family Gully, Pengjiazhen, and Yang Linwei, after learning the true circumstances, all knelt and gave thanks. From then on, they beca Chen Jiusi’s strongest supporters.

If anyone spoke ill of the Fishing Guild, he would be the first to deal with them.

And as the event unfolded, Chen Jiusi’s reputation spread far and wide. In Mianshui County, Chen Jiusi had beco a godlike figure.

...

anwhile, Chen Jie stood on the bank before the levee, watching the raging river water rush into Xiantao Village, toppling the houses, washing away all traces of his life with Su Yunjin.

His heart was deeply pained, but human life was more valuable than anything else—this was Chen Jie’s conviction.

Behind him, Zhou Chu and others stood dumbstruck, witnessing everything unfold before them. They gazed at Chen Jie’s silhouette, his hands clasped behind his back, and were so overco with emotion that many wept.

And in the distance, on the hillside, Zhao Ya watched everything with admiration and respect in her eyes. Her master had once told her: The greatest act of the valiant is to serve one’s country and people.

In Chen Jie, she saw what she admired most: heroism.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya turned to the three people behind her and said, "Let’s go et this Chen Jiusi. There’s so things I need to ask him too!"
