Chapter 42: Murder by force
"I order you to leave Longfeng Village with all the people of the Dragon and Phoenix Family, and not a single one is allowed to stay. The old village chief was silent for a moment, then raised his head to look at Long Qi and Long Kong who were half-kneeling in front of him and ordered loudly, his voice trembling and full of unwillingness.
"Leave? no, village chief, we can't fail to abide by the testament left by our ancestors, this is our only hope, we swear to protect Longfeng Village to the death." "Yes, village chief, if we leave here, I'm afraid that our Dragon and Phoenix family will disappear in this world, we are not reconciled!"
The village chief's order startled Long Kong and Long Qi, and then immediately retorted, and his voice was as decisive as iron, making the old village chief frown. "Don't you listen to my orders, I'll let you leave and leave, it's better to live well than to be slaughtered by these robbers, if you don't leave, then all of our Dragon and Phoenix family will be sacrificed in vain, and they will become the dust of history forever, go!"
The village chief was anxious, and raised the crutches in his hand to knock on Long Kong and Long Qi, but his heart was also full of unwillingness. "But the village chief, we ......" "Let's go, if you don't leave, then I will kill myself here, do you believe it or not?" Seeing that Long Kong and Long Qi were about to refute, the village chief immediately took a step back, took out a sharp dagger from his arms, lowered it on his neck, and with a slight force, the tip of the knife cut through the skin, leaving a fresh light like the remnant sun, "Village Chief, what are you doing?"
"What's wrong with you, village chief, let's talk about it, can you put down the dagger?" The village chief's actions startled Long Kong and Long Qi, and they hurriedly stood up to stop them, and this scene was also seen by the other villagers. "Village Chief......
"Village Chief, you can't be so confused!" "Longkong Longqi, what did you two say to the village chief?" For a while, all the villagers rushed over and gathered around the village chief, looking anxious but not daring to get too close.
"Everyone be quiet!" The village chief still maintained the same posture and said loudly: "I'm sorry for everyone, I can't give you a better life but let everyone fall into a life-and-death dilemma, I am a guilty person, so I have to stay in Longfeng Village, and you are different, you are still young, there are still many happy days to live, you don't need to die here." ”
The village chief's voice trembled and choked a little, he had to do this for the sake of the descendants of the more than fifty dragon and phoenix families, even if he disobeyed the legacy left by his ancestors. "So you have to leave, only by leaving Longfeng Village can you get a better life, as for Zu Xun, from now on my words are Zu Xun, remember, you should never come back to this place in the future, it is better to forget Longfeng Village and forget about Longfeng Family. ”
"Village Chief, why are you so troubled? We have never blamed you, Longfeng Village is our home, and we will never leave even if we die. "That's right, village chief, we're not afraid of those robbers, it's a big deal to fight with them!" What disappointed the village chief was that his words did not have any effect, on the contrary, it also made all the villagers of Longfeng Village more cohesive, which was a good thing, but in this case, it became a magic hoop for life.
"You ...... Hey!" Seeing the expressions of these descendants of the Dragon and Phoenix Family, the village chief understood that it was impossible for these people to leave Dragon and Phoenix Village. "Hahaha, old man Long Che, I heard that you want to leave here?" At this time, a rather grim laughter came from not far away, which made all the villagers look in surprise and turn their heads to look for it, and after seeing the person who spoke clearly, their hearts immediately sank to the bottom.
"They...... It's still here!" all the villagers of Longfeng Village fell silent, their hands clenched into fists, staring at the distance not far away. "What? Do you want to run? With my consent? I wonder if you have prepared five thousand catties of food for us?" In a place less than three miles away from Longfeng Village, a wave of people appeared one after another, and this wave of about 20 people was all fierce and murderous robbers, and at this time, they were slowly approaching this dilapidated village with weapons, and an atmosphere of despair enveloped the entire Longfeng Village.
And in the center of these bandits and robbers there is a blood-red high-headed horse, on the horseback sat a handsome middle-aged man in a simple blue robe, middle-aged with upright facial features and quite eloquent, he couldn't see that he was a robber at all, but such a seemingly upright middle-aged man was the leader of this group of robbers, a demon who killed people without blinking. At this time, the blue-robed middle-aged man rode a horse and walked at the front of the bandit group, looking at the panicked villagers of Longfeng Village, with a cruel smile on his face.
"Don't worry, I'm mad and always talking, saying that if you want 5,000 catties of grain, you will never ask for an extra cent, so now, give me the 5,000 catties of grain." The middle-aged robber named Lan Mad slowly approached, and stretched out his hand to ask the village chief with a blue face. "We don't have so much food, let alone 5,000 catties, not even 1,000 catties, we contribute so much food to you every year, can't you let us go?"
At this time, the village chief had already put down the dagger in his hand, walked to the front of the villagers with a cane trembling, and looked at the approaching Lan Mad with a sad expression, but there was hatred and anger in his eyes that could not be dispersed. "Oh, so you're going to disobey me? That's fine, it just so happens that my brothers haven't killed anyone for a long time, and I don't know if your people's meat is tender or not, after all, human flesh is also one of our reserve food. ”
Lan Mad's face did not change in the slightest, and his smile became bloodthirsty, but the words he could say made all the villagers of Longfeng Village feel cold in their hearts, and they knew that Lan Mad's words were not a joke. "You demons who kill people without blinking, one day you will go to the eighteenth layer of hell and will never be able to live forever, Lao Tzu will fight with you. "Maybe it's really on the verge of despair to inspire a person's courage, although they know that they are not the opponents of those robbers, but there are still many middle-aged men who pick up sticks in their hands and can't even call them weapons, this scene makes the village chief tear and at the same time makes the robbers laugh.
"You things still want to fight us, what a big joke, let me die. ”
In the bandit camp, a fat-headed and big-eared robber walked out in a hurry, raised the huge axe in his hand and slashed at a villager who rushed to the front, a cold light accompanied by a flash of blood, and the villager who rushed to the front was split in two from head to toe, and was instantly cut in two by the fat robber, and red and white things were scattered all over the ground.
