Chapter 82: Anger
Ling Tian has been in the small village for more than a month, and went hunting with the hunters in the village, for more than a month in the village, there is plenty of food every day, in the process of hunting, the old village chief and others found that although Ling Tian is young, he is by no means an idle person.
After being in the small village for so long, Ling Tian found that this small village had little contact with the outside world, and the life in the small village was not very rich, but the people in the village helped each other, and whenever any family was in difficulty, the people in the village would help for free.
After getting along, Ling Tian also knew that the people in the small village were very kind and very enthusiastic, but he had been here for a month, and he was planning to leave, the cultivation of the fierce beasts near the small village was too low, and they were all weak young beasts in the first and second foundation stages.
Ling Tian had no way to improve his cultivation here, if he followed the regular cultivation, Ling Tian didn't know when he would be able to break through the epiphany period, so he had to leave and look for a cultivation ground, although the old village chief and the people in the village wanted to stay, Ling Tian had already made up his mind.
"Xiaotian, if you want to leave, the old woman will not be persuaded to do so, if you have time, come back more often, everyone in the small village welcomes you back at any time. The old woman and the villagers sent Ling Tian to the entrance of the village and said.
"Mother-in-law, Ling Tianhui will come, as soon as I have time, I will come back to visit you two elders. Ling Tian said respectfully to the old village chief and the old woman.
"Brother Xiaotian, Xiao Feng will definitely double his cultivation, and in the future, Xiao Feng will protect Sister Xiao He and protect the people in the village. The ten-year-old boy said with a look of unwavering determination.
In fact, Ling Tian wanted to leave more than ten days ago, but when he saw that the ten-year-old boy Xiaofeng's potential was good, he stayed in the small village for a little longer, but the little boy did not disappoint him, and in just one month, he had reached the cultivation of the Triple Foundation Period.
Even if the village chief in the small village is only in the double foundation period, but the little boy does not reach the tenth foundation stage according to Ling Tian's instructions, and he must not let the people in the village know his cultivation, although the little boy doesn't know why he wants to do this, he trusts Ling Tian very much.
The little boy's cultivation has reached the triple foundation stage, and only Ling Tian knows about it, the reason why Ling Tian told the little boy not to let anyone know is to protect the little boy, the talent is very good, it is not bad, but the Yuancang Continent is a world where strength is respected.
Bidding farewell to the small village, Ling Tian walked all the way to the east, looking for a place to cultivate, but not long after Ling Tian left the small village, a group of uninvited guests came to the small village, and several sturdy men came to the small village.
The village chief personally greeted him, came to a sturdy man, and said respectfully, "Xiao Lao has seen a few adults, this is the small village's Yulu this year. ”
The villagers are also angry with these people, several of them are members of the big family of Thread City, and every year they will go to the small villages near Thread City to collect money, which is the so-called protection fee, and they claim to be protecting the safety of each village.
The people in the nearby villages all understood that these guys had never done anything for them, and there were some fierce beasts attacking the small village, and it was also the people in the village who worked together to drive away the fierce beasts, but even so, the people in the villages did not dare to offend the members of the big family in Thread City.
Every year, each village will be enshrined on time, one of several sturdy men took the money bag in the hands of the old village chief, he opened the money bag, checked it, and then frowned slightly, the old village chief saw this scene, and hurriedly asked.
"My lord, is there anything wrong?"
"This is what you call Yulu, our family is desperate to protect your village, and you will take this thing and send us away, who do you think of us!" asked a sturdy man in a gloomy tone.
Questioned like this by the sturdy man, the old village chief and the villagers looked at each other, not knowing what was wrong, the old village chief hurriedly smiled and said, "My lord, according to your regulations, our village has to pay twenty gold coins every year, and here is twenty gold coins." ”
"What can you do with twenty gold coins? It's not enough for the brothers to have a meal, starting this year, each village must pay a hundred gold coins, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" the sturdy man looked directly at the old village chief and said coldly.
The old village chief and all the villagers, when they heard this sturdy man say this, they couldn't help but gasp and tremble, where did they get so many gold coins, these twenty gold coins were almost accumulated by everyone in the village by saving money.
"My lord, you are embarrassing us, our small village, there are only about 20 people, and after a year, there are not a few gold coins, and these 20 gold coins are already all our savings..."
But without waiting for the old village chief to finish speaking, the sturdy man at the head raised his foot, and with a bang, kicked the old village chief in the chest, and the old village chief was unprepared and was kicked to the ground by the person in front of him, and the sturdy man at the head pointed at the old village chief and shouted.
"I'll tell you! If you don't hand over a hundred gold coins today, I want you to look good! Burn down your village!"
Several other hunters in the village, hearing this, their faces became gloomy and distorted, and they were about to go up to reason with these sturdy men, but the old village chief hurriedly stood up and stopped several hunters, he understood what would be the result if there was a real conflict.
The people in the small village were offended and could not go to the big family of Thread City, and they could only swallow their anger, and the old village chief hurriedly said, "My lord, you wait for a while, I will go and make up for it, I don't know how many gold coins I can make up." ”
The old village chief took a few hunters, found each family, and worked together to make up a hundred gold coins and handed them to these people, and when he saw the old village chief and others going to make money, one of the sturdy men smiled and said, "Big brother, you really have a way, these guys have gone to make money." ”
The sturdy man at the head showed a smile on his face, and said disapprehantly, "These hillbillies, if you don't give them some color, they won't be afraid, starting from this year, our annual income will double every year." ”
"According to the eldest brother, then aren't we going to grow bigger?" Several other sturdy men, hearing this, had excited expressions on their faces.
"As long as you follow me, I will never do you any wrong. The sturdy man at the head said with a smug face.
About half an hour later, the old village chief and the villagers walked up to several sturdy men, and the sturdy man led by him smiled and said, "Look, I'm right, these hillbillies must have stolen a lot of gold coins, and they have collected a hundred gold coins so quickly." ”
The old village chief came to a few people, saluted respectfully, handed the money bag up, and begged for mercy, "A few adults, this is our whole village made up, we really can't make up more, give us some time, we will..."
The sturdy man at the head took the money bag in his hand, opened it and saw that there were only five gold coins in it, his face was instantly gloomy, and with a bang, he kicked the old village chief a few meters away, and roared gloomily, "Are you sending beggars?"
The old and young people in the village hurriedly helped the old village chief up, and several hunters and villagers surrounded several members of the big family at once, and the little village chief hurriedly stood up and shouted, "What are you doing! Stand down! Don't be rude to a few adults." ”
"My lord, the people in the village have little knowledge, please don't blame the adults, give the old man a face, the old man promises that we will definitely get together the remaining gold coins..."
With a bang, the sturdy man kicked the old village chief away again, and the sturdy man pointed at the old village chief, looked directly at the villagers present, and sneered, "What's the matter?
The old village chief was very helpless in his heart, it was not that he was unwilling to hand over the gold coins, but the whole village really couldn't make up the gold coins, this small village was very small, and it was already the limit to be able to make up twenty-five gold coins, but several members of the Ding family didn't think so.
These members of the Ding family thought that the people in the village were unwilling to hand over the gold coins, and the members of the Ding family led by them said coldly, "Teach them a lesson and let them know the difference in strength!"
Hearing the order of the leader man, several members of the Ding family shouted angrily and rushed towards several Orions and middle-aged men in the village, and only a few Orions in the village were in the foundation period, and no one else could practice martial arts.
The cultivation of these members of the Ding family is a double foundation period, but after a while, several hunters were knocked to the ground one after another, and the old village chief begged for mercy, "A few adults, be merciful, we really can't make it up." ”
"It seems that I don't give you some color, look at it, you really take words as wind in your ears!" the leader of the Ding family roared angrily.
In a flash, he grabbed a nine-year-old girl, grabbed her neck with one hand, and asked solemnly, "I'm asking you one last time, is there any! Her life and death depend on your performance!"
A middle-aged man who was knocked to the ground, saw the young girl being choked by the neck with one hand, he kept struggling, and roared, "No!
"A few adults, give it! We will definitely give it, don't embarrass the child. The old village chief said anxiously.
"A group of Diao people, if they don't give you color, you just won't be honest, give you an hour's time, and hand over the gold coins immediately. The man of the Ding family said proudly.
The old village chief and the villagers brought the meat of many fierce beasts over one after another and placed them in front of several members of the Ding family, and the leader of the Ding family asked with a gloomy face.
"Old man, what do you mean by all this rotten meat?"
"My lord, I beg you, our village really can't make up gold coins, only these beast meats, take them and sell them, and they should be able to sell a few gold coins. The old village chief said helplessly.
Hearing this, the head of the Ding family did not speak, he lifted the nine-year-old girl from the neck with one hand, Xiaohe kept slapping the man's hand, his face became more and more red and purple, and he struggled violently.
"No!" The hunters and adults in the village rushed to the head of the Ding family members, but were knocked to the ground by several other Ding family members, the old village chief clenched his fists, he wanted to rush up to save Xiaohe, but he couldn't.
If you really do it with a few members of the Ding family, not only Xiaohe will die, but the entire small village will be killed by the Ding family!
Seeing that Xiaohe's face was purple, he was about to lose his breath, the old village chief felt powerless for a while, as a double foundation period, even if he made a move, he was not the opponent of the Ding family as the head member, and this person in front of him was the cultivation of the triple foundation period.
Just when he was about to start, he heard a young voice, "Let go of Sister Xiaohe!"
Without waiting for everyone to relax, a short figure rushed towards the members of the Ding family, and with a muffled sound, the body of the members of the Ding family was knocked out more than ten meters away and fell heavily to the ground.
When everyone saw the scene in front of them, they were instantly stunned...
