When Ji Muye and his team found Lu Xining, she was frowning at the commotion of the household in front of her.
"What are you doing! Let go of my partner!"
"The old man has lived here for most of his life and has never seen any mountain torrents; I don't need your fake kindness. Who knows what you are trying to do by driving us away!"
"I'm not leaving either; my partner and I would rather die here than leave!"
Most of the resistors were elderly people.
They simply didn't believe what Lu Xining and Chu Chunshan were saying and even thought they had ulterior motives.
Chu Chunshan's face turned red with anger as he argued directly with the elders in the local dialect, "What does our village have that they would covet? Those worthless scraps of junk metal?"
"Aunties and uncles, please leave quickly, with food and lodging provided; it's already charity."
"Even if there really are no mountain torrents, you won't lose out."
