In fact, Ye Li completely agreed with Qi Tianping's words, he was born in a small family, and he understood the helplessness of small forces very well.

If these bandits cannot be completely exterminated, there will definitely be endless troubles in the future.

Because small forces can't afford to raise masters, and it is impossible to spend a lot of money to hire people for defense for many years, there is no way to compete with powerful thieves all year round.

As the saying goes, there are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves.

It is precisely because of this that the gangsters have the capital to threaten the small family, and both sides are actually unwilling to go to war, after all, there are losses for each other when they really fight.

Generally, the unwritten rule is that the small forces pay tribute to the nearby bandits, and the bandits will not trouble the small forces, and even give a certain degree of help when the caravan of the family passes by.

But a situation like the Qi family encountered, in fact, is also very common, the leader of the gang has a crush on the woman of the Qi family, if he doesn't want to marry the woman, then he has to spend more money to avoid disasters.

But if you don't want to spend money and don't want to marry a woman, the gangsters will kill people.

Otherwise, as soon as the precedent is set, the various families within the bandit's sphere of influence will follow the routine and will also begin to doubt the strength of the bandit.

In general, the various gangs will clear the uneasy factors such as the Qi family, after all, it is a matter of interest.

After Qi Huanfeng calmed down, thinking about his father's words, there was actually no problem, he had admitted in his heart that it was better to do this, but after being threatened with his life this time, his heart would become somewhat extreme.

"Okay, Feng'er, let's not talk about these things for now, so as not to snub the distinguished guests. ”

Qi Tianping saw that Qi Huanfeng still wanted to speak, so he hurriedly used Ye Li to cover up.

Qi Huanfeng also remembered that Ye Li was still there, and it was indeed not very good for them to quarrel here.

"I'm really sorry, Ye Gongzi, but I made you see the joke. ”

Qi Huanfeng said to Ye Li apologetically.

Ye Li smiled and said, "It's okay, what you said is also important." ”

Qi Huanfeng saw that Ye Li did not have the arrogance of everyone's son, but looked very approachable, and the respect for Ye Li on his face was three points more.

Then Qi Huanfeng and Qi Tianping sat down and chatted with Ye Li for a while, after all, Ye Li had experience in disguise in the past, so he quickly convinced Qi Huanfeng and the others that he was an apprentice of a hermit master and had just recently graduated from school.

Although he has outstanding strength, he doesn't know much about the world, so he doesn't know a lot of things, so he has to ask Qi Huanfeng and the others for advice.

Qi Huanfeng and the others naturally did not refuse Ye Li's request, and they told Ye Li everything they knew.

Ye Li also began to have a preliminary understanding of this continent from the mouths of the two.

There are several countries on this continent, and the three most powerful countries are the Tang Kingdom, the White Lotus Kingdom, and the Great Yuan Kingdom.

The place where he is now is near Qingshan City in the Tang Kingdom, and the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is a small chamber of commerce in the Tang Kingdom whose strength is at the middle and lower levels.

The Mai bandits who attacked the Qi family before were the most powerful bandit group near Qingshan City, and the three masters all had the strength of the late stage of the Yuan Fetal Period.

And the strongest in the Qi family is only the strength of the three people, including Qi Tianping, in the late stage of the gestational period.

Such a big gap in strength naturally makes it difficult for the Qi family to resist the existence of the Mai bandits, and they can only pay tribute every year.

Originally, this time, Qi Huanfeng thought that after marrying his daughter Qi Xiujuan to the third son of the city guard of Jinzhou City, the Mai bandits would have some scruples and did not dare to bully them too hard.

Although the Jinzhou City Guard was not a big official in the Tang Kingdom, it also represented the orthodox power of the Tang Dynasty to some extent, and it was much stronger than the Mai bandits.

After all, no matter how strong the Jinzhou city guard was, the Mai bandits would not dare to provoke them head-on, because once they offended the Tang court, it would only take three or two days to exterminate them.

But this time, Qi Huanfeng underestimated the desperate heart of the Mai bandits, and they did not care about the name of the Jinzhou City Guard.

Perhaps it was their understanding of the imperial court that even if they slaughtered the Qi family, as a married daughter, Qi Xiujuan would not be able to help much.

After all, this is the sphere of influence of Qingshan City, and the government soldiers of Jinzhou City can't control it here, and after the turning point of the relationship between the layers, it is also very difficult to send troops to Qingshan City to suppress the bandits.

Because the reason why the Mai bandits dared to be so arrogant near Qingshan City was because they had some collusion of interests with the Qingshan City guards.

A large part of the tribute they received and the money they looted went into the treasury of Qingshan Castle Guard, which is why the Mai bandits were so fearless.

After Ye Li learned all the situation, he glanced at Qi Huanfeng and Qi Tianping, and said, "Uncle Qi, Uncle Qi, now it seems that the Mai bandits should come to trouble you again, after all, I killed their people, if they can't find me, they will definitely take revenge on you." ”

Hearing Ye Li's words, the faces of the Qi family's father and son became a little ugly.

Qi Huan Feng said: "They should ...... Won't let us go.

However, we can also ask Jinzhou City for help, if Jinzhou City is willing to help, we may be able to try to reconcile with the Mai bandits, and it is a big deal to lose more money and goods. ”

Hearing his words, Ye Li's eyes showed a little suspicion, after all, in his opinion, if the Mai bandits really chose to reconcile, then their reputation in Qingshan City should have fallen to the bottom.

"Uncle Qi, Uncle Qi, otherwise I'll be here with you for a while, and if those sackcloth bandits come to the door again, I'll clean them up for you."

If you find someone from Golden State City who can help you both reconcile, then I can wait for you to reconcile before leaving. ”

Ye left his mouth and said to the father and son of the Qi family.

When Qi Huanfeng and Qi Tianping heard this, their faces showed extremely surprised looks, but in the blink of an eye, Qi Tianping was a little worried: "Ye Gongzi, the three masters of the Mai Bandit all have cultivation in the late stage of the Yuan Fetal Period, is it really okay for you to stay."

Moreover, didn't you say that your master gave you a task after you came down the mountain, and you don't need to complete it?"

Ye Li smiled lightly when he heard this, and said, "You don't have to worry about the strength of the Mai bandits, anyway, no matter how powerful it is, it is not enough for me to be in a high realm."

As for my master's task, I don't have a clue right now, so I happen to be here, so I'll ask you for advice. ”

Hearing Ye Li's words, the Qi family's father and son glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of shock in each other's eyes.

If you don't put the spirit martial artists in the late stage of the Yuan Fetal Stage in your eyes, then it already shows that Ye Li is at least the strength of the Void God Stage, and the spirit master of the Void God Stage who is less than thirty years old, the father and son of the Qi family have really never heard of it.
