Volume 1 A Small Mountain Village in the Cracks Chapter 21 The Village Chief's Mission
The rate of fire of this single-shot crossbow is not fast, it is not as fast as the rate of fire of a bow, but Li Yong found four crossbows out of nowhere, and each crossbow was already loaded with arrows in advance, so that he could shoot three arrows in a row before Zhang Cheng could react.
Although Zhang Cheng didn't react when Li Yong shot the first arrow, the second arrow avoided it at the last moment, and the third crossbow didn't even touch his shadow.
It's just that it's a little late to rush again at this time.
Under Li Yong's shout, seven or eight villagers also picked up their crossbows, wound them, loaded the arrows, and pulled the trigger in one go.
Although these crossbows did not hurt him, it was extremely difficult for him to break through the distance of forty or fifty zhang.
Seeing seven or eight people, he forced a True Martial Realm powerhouse to be embarrassed, and more villagers mustered up the courage to take out their crossbows, and in the end, hundreds of villagers each took out their crossbows.
At this time, it was impossible for Zhang Cheng to rush over again, and his companion was injured in his right arm first, and his movements were a little uncomfortable when he dodged, and he was hit by several arrows in a row. Although he was not yet breathless, he lay on the ground and wailed, apparently seriously injured and completely incapacitated.
Knowing that he couldn't do anything, Zhang Cheng immediately abandoned his companions, went around to the back of the Shenbing shop, and quickly fled to the cliff on the north side of the back mountain under the cover of the houses and trees, jumped into the small river below, and escaped along the river.
After Zhang Cheng fled, the companion he left behind became a tool for the villagers to vent, and the dignified true martial arts powerhouse actually died under the sticks of a group of farmers.
Almost everyone in Lijia Village beat him, and the villagers who were taught by Tang Yi and the others were the most murderous, and in the end, this person couldn't even leave a whole corpse, and was completely beaten into a pile of meat paste. This time it's real meat puree, not just broken bones, like the False Emissary.
As soon as the village chief of Guqian Village walked halfway, he ran into Zhang Cheng, who was running for his life. Seeing Zhang Cheng's embarrassed appearance, and hearing that the other sect leader was afraid that he would be more than lucky, the two of them immediately coaxed, and immediately withdrew to the valley with Zhang Cheng, and the three villages held a meeting again.
They never dreamed that a group of villagers with hoes had been able to grab pus, and now they would dare to attack the warriors. Not only that, but he also left a True Martial Realm master there.
Although the person who was left behind was only the existence at the bottom of Shili Baxiang, he was also a powerhouse in the middle of the True Martial Realm, and he was still a step deeper than Li Laosan's realm.
"Why don't we go to the bath...... "Zhang Cheng was really scared, he wanted to say that he would go to Yuhuangao for help, but after thinking about it, he felt that Yuhuangao was not as good as Valanzhai insurance.
Although Valan Village suddenly bowed its head to Yu Huang Ao for some reason, the strength and achievements on paper were there, and Valan Village was invincible in the vicinity.
The others looked at each other, and one of them said, "No...... Isn't it going to be? With that group of pus in Lijia Village, dare to kill our Sangu Village?"
He always felt that he didn't believe it, after all, Lijia Village was a well-known pustule in this area, otherwise why would they send a group of farmers to rob the Lijia Village hunting team?
Such a cowardly Lijia Village...... Suddenly stiffened?
Why did he think it was so unreal?
However, Sangu Village has always been headed by the head of Guqian Village, and only he has the right to make decisions, not how strong Guqian Village is. He may not be the smartest man to find the right path for the village, but he will not lead the way too wrong.
After a moment of silence, the head of Guqian Village said to the man who spoke: "Although it is unlikely, it has to be guarded against. In this way, Zhang Cheng, you are most familiar with the kings of Valan Village, so you will go to Valan Village to report the news. ”
"Let's merge the three villages first, in Guhe Village. ”
He said to another sect leader: "When Zhang Cheng comes back, let's go to Lijia Village again." Bring all the silver money and herbs that were robbed last time, and prepare some more silver taels to make amends, and stabilize them first. ”
Of course, making amends is only one aspect, if Lijia Village is still the same Lijia Village, and it is only on impulse that it is bold, then this silver will become life money. He will use the silver to buy the crossbow of Lijia Village, and then use the crossbow to send the entire Lijia Village to hell!
After the head of the Guhou Village was beaten to death, the anger of everyone in Lijia Village almost disappeared, and along with the anger, there was also their courage just now. Lijia Village, which calmed down, has become the village full of cowardice and only knows how to survive on its knees.
A new round of fear has begun...... and complaining.
The first to complain was the village chief Li Shi, who did not complain about others, but complained about his son Li Yong. Lao Tzu scolded his son, Li Yong didn't refute even if he was impatient, just squatted on the ground, lowered his head and listened quietly.
"You can now, your wings are hard, why can't you go to the sky?" Li Shi had an angry expression on his face, and kicked Li Yong in the ass viciously.
"Do you dare to kill someone? Then there are three True Martial Realm martial artists in Sangu Village, what about our village? Who else is there besides Li Laosan's Eight Lambs? What if someone else kills him? You pay for someone's life?"
Li Shi sneered and said, "Even if you pay for someone's life, you have to agree to it, what if they insist on destroying our village?
After Li Shi turned around three times angrily, he suddenly shouted at everyone: "Li Laosan, what about Li Laosan? Let Li Laosan's forgotten eight lambs get out!"
The villagers shook their heads after one look at each other.
They didn't see Li Laosan when they went to the Shenbing Shop before, and they thought he was in the village at that time, but at this time, everyone was in the threshing floor, and they didn't see Li Laosan.
It's lunch now, and it's impossible for Li Laosan to go anywhere else.
The crowd began to talk.
"I don't seem to have seen the kid surnamed Tang either, right?"
"Well, I haven't seen them since Granny Ma drove them to the blacksmith shop last night. ”
Everyone glanced at Granny Ma, after all, she had a history of letting Tang Yi go, and besides, these two people didn't seem to be masters who could cook. One of the two received a long-term meal ticket at Granny Ma's house, and the other grew up eating 100 family meals, as long as they were in the village, they were never absent from the dinner table.
"Didn't the old woman let them go again?"
"No, right? The kid surnamed Tang doesn't say it, the third child grew up eating hundreds of family meals, he won't be so unconscientious, right?"
"Why not? That kid isn't a good thing, otherwise where would he be now?"
"That's it!" the second stunned man who heard someone come out and was being carried on a stretcher also spoke.
"I have long seen that the eight forgotten lambs are not good birds! As soon as I heard on time that the village could not complete the offering, it was going to be destroyed by the Wallan Village, so I was cowardly and ran away!"
"No, it's hard to leave the poor, it's hard to leave the homeland. After leaving Lijia Village, he Li Laosan is not afraid of the mountain god master's guilt?" "There has always been such a saying in Lijia Town, it is difficult for a poor family to leave their homeland, and if they leave their homeland, they will be condemned by the mountain god master.
Some people say that because there is one less person, the mountain god will have one less stick of incense, and some people say that it is because of luck, people born in each place carry the luck of that place, and if you go to other places, you will take the luck of this place away, so the mountain god will punish you.
Of course, it's not that you can't leave this place, but you have to pay attention to returning to your roots.
The mountain god can see through people's hearts, whether you are traveling or taking refuge, the mountain god can see at a glance.
This is also the reason why the people of Lijia Village are about to be wiped out and still refuse to escape. If you are killed, there will be a reincarnation, and you can still look forward to the next life, but if you are punished by the mountain god, you will not even have the next life.
"The third ...... You can't be so stupid, right?" Most of the villagers didn't believe the words of the two stunned people, after all, the punishment of the mountain god master was real.
It is said that there were people in Chen Jiaji who tried to escape back then, and there were still many people, but in the last one many died in front of the mountain temple. Everyone had no wounds on their bodies, they were all scared to death.
People say that it is the hand of the mountain god.
Seeing everyone's appearance, the second stunned sneered disdainfully, and said, "You know a fart! The mountain god master will only punish ordinary people like us, and he will not punish martial artists above the true martial realm." Most of the kings of Valan Village are not locals, so why are they living well with us?"
When everyone thought about it, it seemed that it was really such a reason, so they all began to waver.
Li Yong listened to the discussion of the villagers, and suddenly became inexplicably irritable, and a voice full of demagogy came from his ears.
"Stupid villager, cowardly father, do you really want to kneel and die with this group of people, or you will lead the village to kill all the Varan village like the bastards of Sangu Village in the morning!"
Hearing this voice, Li Yong suddenly stood up from the ground, clenched his fists and said viciously: "I don't want to die on my knees!
"No, I won't die! I want to live, I want to completely destroy Valan Village, I want to make these ten miles and eight towns tremble for me, and I want everyone to crawl at my feet!" Li Yong suddenly looked at his father viciously after speaking, his eyes were full of blood red, like a demon who chose to devour people.
Li Shi was startled by his son's eyes, subconsciously took two steps back before reacting, rushed over and slapped his son, and said angrily: "What are you roaring?
"If you don't open the house for three days, it's you, I'm ...... I'm ......" Li Shi searched around, and finally found a wooden stick that was not so thick, and whipped it on his son's thigh.
"I'll kill you little brute!" said that, Li Shi's movements looked ferocious, but in fact he didn't use much strength. Otherwise, why would he only pick such a small wooden stick the thickness of his thumb when there were so many bowls of thick wooden sticks on the fence?
If Li Xin'er passed away, he would have been beaten, but since Li Xin'er passed away, Li Yong has changed, why hasn't Li Shi changed?
Where in the world is there a father who really doesn't love his children? How can Li Shi not love these two brothers and sisters? It's just ...... In the position of the village head, you have to think about the whole village, don't say that it was Li Xin'er who died, even if the messenger wanted his own life, Li Shi would not hesitate to hit the wall and die.
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, looking at his son who is stunned every day, where does Li Shi not know what he thinks? Revenge? He doesn't want to avenge his daughter? He also wants to die!
But he can't, he is the head of a village, shouldering the safety of the entire village, he can't and doesn't dare to act rashly. If he was the only one, Li Shi would have carried a crossbow to find Valanzhai desperately.
Tang Yi swore an oath, Li Laosan scolded him, didn't Li Shi see it? Didn't you hear it? He is not old, he is not deaf or blind, he can see and hear. Maybe Tang Yi and Li Laosan can succeed, but even if there is only a slight possibility of failure, Li Shi does not dare to bet.
Because of the mission of the village chief!
