When we go into the city today, get me a bow.

I can help you carry the prey. Take me along, please?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of fifteen- and sixteen-year-old youths crowded around Duan Yu, pleading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu smiled and nodded in agreement one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can learn to hunt with me, but you must be able to endure hardship.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Duan Yu agree, the youths immediately raised their hands and cheered joyfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Duan, we're not afraid of hardship, we can endure it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, Brother Duan, we promise to listen and endure hardship.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside them, watching Duan Yu blend seamlessly with the villagers, Diaochan felt a heart full of sweetness. She held tightly to Duan Yu's hand, unable to help imagining their happy life in the days to come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I could give my husband sons and daughters, he would surely be very happy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Inside Wucun Township.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The village had a relatively large estate, occupying a vast area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounding it were walls made of yellow adobe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wooden courtyard gate stood wide open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men could be seen going in and out from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some walked with their heads high, looking delighted, while others hung their heads in despair, their faces full of grief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the courtyard, fierce shouts rang out from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearby, the honest, simple villagers deliberately avoided this place when passing by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, the vast majority of the villagers had gone into the city for the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there were still some who disliked labor, known in the village as idlers, gathered within these walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No era lacks people who love to eat but hate to work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This era was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that every village and every township had such people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diaochan's uncle-by-marriage, Li Gouer, was one of these idlers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this estate, which gathered all the village idlers, belonged to a renowned gallant within the surrounding ten li and eight townships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called gallants were not the great heroes found in Jin Yong's martial arts novels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terms wandering knight and gallant carried mixed connotations, both positive and negative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some wandering knights and gallants valued righteousness over life and loved making friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the vast majority referred to scoundrels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, hooligans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The estate before them was the home of Ma Sanyi, the most infamous \"gallant\" and biggest scoundrel in the surrounding ten li and eight townships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ma family had many brothers, seven in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their early years, they migrated here from Liangzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They claimed to be distant relatives of Grand General Ma Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the villagers just listened without taking it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liangzhou was even more bitterly cold than Bingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, it suffered from constant foreign invasions, so the people of Liangzhou were exceptionally fierce and ruthless by nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bingzhou was similar, but that referred to places like Yunzhong and Jiuyuan in Bingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taiyuan, though also in Bingzhou, was closer to the Three Adjuncts region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the commoners' lives were hard, they did not suffer from foreign invasions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, their temperaments were much milder by comparison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, once the Ma brothers settled here, they immediately became the local gallants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying on their numbers and ruthless methods, they quickly gained a firm foothold in the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also gathered some wandering knights from the vicinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On ordinary days, they ran gambling dens and engaged in forced buying and selling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people in the surrounding villages dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, most of the villagers had gone to Yu Jinyang for the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the village idlers came to Ma Sanyi's home to continue gambling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of idlers gathered around a chicken coop made of woven wattle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, two fighting cocks were pecking at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kick it, kick it, peck it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go, go, go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Peck it, peck it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than ten idlers surrounded the coop, red-faced and thick-necked, shouting at the top of their lungs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four or five wandering knights in short robes, their chests bare and short swords tucked at their waists, stood with crossed arms, watching with smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far from the coop was a row of three rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although also made of adobe, they were far better than Li Gouer's adobe house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The floor inside was paved with wooden planks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the main hall, over a dozen tables were arranged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The seat of honor was a massive desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the desk at this moment were roast chicken, mutton, roast fish, and unfiltered wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the desk, a burly man with a scar on his face sat at the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding a chicken leg in one hand and a wine bowl in the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mouthful of meat, a mouthful of wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of him stood two wandering knights with short swords at their waists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked down fiercely at Li Gouer, who was kneeling in the hall with a bruised and swollen face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fierce-looking middle-aged man drinking and eating meat was named Ma San.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the most ruthless and venomous of the Ma brothers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although ranked third in his family, he was the one who truly called the shots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gouzi, starting from yesterday daytime, you've lost a total of five thousand coins at my place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Adding the cost of wine and meat, I won't charge you extra, I'll charge you five thousand five hundred qian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Reasonable, right? Not too much, right?\" Ma San squinted at Li Gouer kneeling before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Gouer swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then nodded cautiously: \"Not much, not much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then.\" Ma San smiled and set down the chicken drumstick in his hand, saying: \"I took one thousand qian of yours, which means you still owe me four thousand five hundred qian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine if you have no money, I also said, I will let this money go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come, bring me four fingers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One finger offsets one thousand qian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then the debt between us will be wiped clean.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma San looked at Li Gouer with a cold sneer and said: \"Doggy, don't say I'm ruthless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Third Grandpa eats from this bowl; if I don't do you in today, how will Third Grandpa establish myself in the future?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1169,"2026-06-15T02:56:25.579Z","2026-06-16T15:22:17.603Z",1,"GLM-5.1","a85e0f9f1bbcf9c7a83edb6eb1bc7ff6ab1cfb8c646de8d0613269146e2649ce","three-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-chapter-12","three-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-chapter-10",13,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-cover.jpg"]
