Steward Liu stammered: "No... Yes, Heifengzhai is far away from us, and he has never been here before..." He is the largest household in the village, and he is the first person Heifengzhai looks for when he comes to the door.
"I heard that those villages that are closer to Heifengzhai have strengthened their defenses and built walls, so they will abandon the near and seek the far. Now that the cold winter is approaching, they also have to store grain for the winter, Steward Liu, your grain depots are full! "
"Does the government not care?" For hunters, autumn is the time when the beasts are fattening, and for the bandits, autumn is the time when the beasts are fattening, and for the bandits, autumn is also the fattest time for the people who have just harvested the fruits of their labor.
"Hmph, the government collects money every year, saying that it wants to suppress bandits, and it can't be done every year."
Steward Liu said: "That... So what to do? Nephew, why don't you bring more people back?" "
Li Long glanced at him angrily, why didn't he want to bring more people back, but he was just one of the disciples of the sect master, not the Iron Fist master, and it was okay for the brothers to eat and drink with him, but it was absolutely impossible for them to go head-to-head with the bandits of Heifeng Village.
But he was able to worship under the Iron Lion, and thanks to Steward Liu back then, he couldn't reprimand him out loud because he thought of this old relationship, so he just said:
"It's enough for me alone, this time it's definitely not the Black Wind Village Master himself, most of them are one of the masters, as long as I report my master's name, he will also give some face, but he also needs some people to support the scene, Qingshan ..." Li Long looked at Li Qingshan looking at him, with such a master by his side, he was more confident.
Li Qingshan was deeply skeptical of this statement, if others ran so far, would they retreat just by hearing a name, but he would not let the small village where he gave birth to him and raised him be trampled, and hugged his fists and said: "It is incumbent." "
Li Long got a promise from him, and also made up his mind, there is a third-rate master to help, this matter is much more certain, he is willing to tolerate Li Qingshan's step, which is also an extremely critical reason.
Village Chief Li and Steward Liu arranged for some long-term workers to prepare, and also put on some weapons, although the news was still blocked, but the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Steward Liu said tremblingly: "Dear nephew, should we take shelter?" "
Li Long said: "This is not avoided, they are out to plunder, and they will not kill and set fire to others, but Steward Liu, this time you are afraid that you will get some blood." "
Steward Liu sighed, it is a blessing not a curse, it is a misfortune that cannot be avoided, he is gone, but his family business cannot go.
A few people waited quietly in the house, and the two brothers, Li Hu and Li Bao, were sweating with fright with knives and guns, constantly thinking of all kinds of terrible rumors about Heifeng Mountain.
Li Long glanced at his brother, glanced at Li Qingshan, who had closed his eyes and recuperated with an unchanged expression, and sighed in his heart, if you have half the courage, I will be willing to take you into Qingyang City.
"Bell bell!"
Before it got dark, I heard the sound of gongs outside the village suddenly sounded, which was a sentry arranged outside the village, and it was a clever and dexterous young man picked by Steward Liu.
"It's coming!" Li Long said.
Li Qingshan suddenly opened his eyes, this group of bandits was so bold that they dared to plunder in broad daylight.
The sound of gongs suddenly stopped.
Several people rushed to the entrance of the village, only to see a puff of smoke and dust coming from afar, and in the blink of an eye, it was close, but there were dozens of people, no matter tall, short, fat or thin, all of them had evil faces, and the leader was riding a short horse that could travel on the mountain road, and he was actually carrying a bloody human head in his hand.
"Xiao Liu!" Steward Liu shouted, this head was the young man he sent out to investigate, and he was killed like this, his legs and stomach were weak in fright, and he looked at Li Long, didn't you say that they would not kill people in their spare time?
Li Long's eyebrows twisted into a ball, and he said in a low voice: "They are going to kill people to establish their power!" Then he clenched his fists and said loudly: "Li Long under the Iron Fist Gate, I don't know which head of the Black Wind Village is coming." "
"This is our third master, you hand over the money and food with interest, don't let the grandfathers work hard, otherwise they will burn your broken village!" There were bandits shouting, and the other bandits shouted, fiddling with the blades in their hands, with contemptuous smiles on their faces, as if they were just looking at a group of lambs to be slaughtered.
The third master had a beard and a face full of flesh, threw his head on the ground, and rolled to Li Long's feet: "Iron Fist Gate, if the Iron Lion is here, I will leave immediately without saying a word, what kind of thing are you?" "
When the two brothers Li Hu and Li Bao saw the smoke coming, their faces were earthy, their legs trembled, and at this time, their legs went weak and they fell to the ground.
The bandits laughed: "The third master is so majestic!" "
Li Long's face changed, and he gasped, it was rumored that among the leaders of this Black Wind Village, these three heads were the most ferocious, moody, and ** plundered everything, in the eyes of the villagers near the Black Wind Village, they were even more terrifying figures than the Black Wind Village master.
But since the other party asked him what he was, it proved that he was still jealous of the Iron Fist Sect, and asked him about his relationship with the Iron Lion, the situation was stronger than others, and he could only endure the anger in his heart: "I am the closed disciple of the master and his old man, I know that the third master is coming, and I dare not let you return empty-handed, and I have also received a small gift, and please take care of my master and put a yard in Woniu Village." "
Steward Liu trembled and presented a brocade box, and the whip of the third master flew into his hand, showing that he was not weak.
When he opened the brocade box, there were only white flowers and silver inside, but his face gradually darkened: "One hundred taels, are you sending someone to ask for food?" "
"Big ... Our best, my lord. "
"Before dark, I want to see a thousand taels of silver and a thousand pounds of grain, otherwise, hum!" When the third master said this, he suddenly licked his lips and smiled lewdly: "Brothers, you still have to borrow a few women to use it, don't worry, this is not a robbery, just a borrow, after it is used up, it will be returned to you in the spring of next year." "
The bandits laughed lewdly together, "Which woman can be the wife of our third master, that is their blessing!" "In the spring, maybe the woman won't want to come back."
Li Long knew best that no woman could come back from the Black Wind Cottage, and she was raped to death by them, and said loudly: "Does the third master really don't care about the Iron Fist Sect at all?" "
Steward Liu was even more stunned by this number, and he was speechless.
"Don't make me wait too long!" The third master didn't look at Li Long, turned his head, and ordered his subordinates: "You go and urge it!" "
More than twenty bandits laughed and bypassed Li Long and a few others, entered the village, knocked on the door door from door to door, and if they dared to open the door, they would break in. Hundreds of villagers were driven out like sheep, and they gathered together with horror, and the barking of dogs and the howling of women and children suddenly sounded like a mess.
The third master laughed and looked at this scene: "Let's rest in this village tonight!" "
"This child is only fourteen years old, and he has never done anything bad."
Suddenly, an extremely calm voice sounded, calm and somewhat unsuitable for the scene at hand, but in that calm, it seemed to suppress uncontrollable killing intent.
Li Qingshan picked up the head of Xiaoliu on the ground and gently stroked his eyes.
The third master narrowed his eyes: "Who are you?" He didn't notice Li Qingshan, because from the beginning, when the head was thrown down, Li Qingshan lowered his head and trembled all over, he thought it was fear.
But now Li Qingshan is no longer trembling, and said slowly: "This is a very good and clever child, and his parents love him very much." "
The third master yawned: "What do you want to say?" "
Li Qingshan suddenly raised his head: "You are all going to die today!"
