Although this world was very chaotic, it had been a long time since the massacre of a village had happened within the borders of Yi City, something that angered even the heavens and the people.
Mother Yuan Lan exclaimed, "Brother Fan, is the Iron Mountain Gang really that crazy? Don't they know that doing this will cause the anger of many villages in Yi City? Also, the Black Wood Village … … in our clan, a few married girls are from the Black Wood Village. "
"Yes, so the clan is very noisy right now." Teng Yongfan frowned and said, "But what can we do?"
"This Iron Mountain Gang is too cruel." Teng Qing Shan's heart was also filled with anger. Slaughtering the village was too inhumane.
Teng Yongfan said, "There is no other way. According to what we know, the three leaders of the Iron Mountain Gang are all famous inner strength experts who roamed the land of the nine prefectures! Each of them is very ruthless. I think slaughtering the Black Wood Village is to show the other villages. This is killing the chicken to warn the monkey! "
Teng Qingshan nodded.
There was no need to slaughter a village just for money. It was obviously to intimidate the other villages.
"Father, Mother, Brother, will that gang come to our village?" Qingyu asked worriedly.
"What I am most worried about is … …" Teng Yongfan said worriedly, "The Iron Mountain Gang will very likely come to our Teng Jia Village. To be more accurate … … they will definitely come to collect money. The problem is … … when will they come! "
"We have to be prepared for this." Teng Qingshan nodded. This was related to the survival of the clan, so they couldn't be careless. After thinking for a while, Teng Qingshan said, "Father, how about this … … from tomorrow onwards, the hunting squad will be led by Qinghu. With Qinghu's current strength, there won't be any problems in the mountains. As for me, I won't go into the mountains to train. I will stay in the village just in case! "
Teng Yongfan nodded. "I think so too, but this is only one aspect. There are many other things that need to be changed. For example, those who practice the Tiger Fist should be moved to the training field. They can defend against any enemies that might appear at any time. "
They usually practiced the Tiger Fist in the forest.
However, it would take some time to run from the forest to the training field.
"If the Iron Mountain Gang doesn't ask for a lot of money, we can take a step back. If the asking price is really too high, then … we can only choose to resist, "Teng Yongfan said.
"Okay." Teng Qingshan had already made up his mind.
If danger really appeared, there would be no need for him to hide his strength. He could just go on a killing spree. To Teng Qingshan … the most precious family members in his life were his father, mother, little sister, and many of the elders who took care of him. All of them were in the clan. The clan was his root, and it was also the root of his family. He swore that he would protect Teng Jia Village even if he died.
"The situation isn't that bad yet." Teng Yongfan also felt that the topic was heavy, so he smiled and said, "Our Teng Jia Village is much stronger than the Black Wood Village. The Iron Mountain Gang will also know what to choose. "
Teng Jia Village was indeed much stronger than Black Wood Village.
In the past four years, there were more than thirty clansmen who managed to cultivate inner strength. Of course, there were hundreds of clansmen who had practiced the Tiger Fist, but only about 30 of them had achieved inner strength. The ratio was indeed low. However, the clansmen who had achieved inner strength possessed astonishing destructive power.
"If the Iron Mountain Gang thinks that we are as easy to bully as the Black Wood Village, then they are wrong." Teng Qingshan said with a smile, but his heart was filled with killing intent.
At a crucial moment, Teng Qingshan would never be lenient.
… …
The news of the massacre of the Black Wood Village spread quickly. All the clansmen of Teng Jia Village quickly knew about it. Teng Jia Village also became jittery. All the men of the village trained in the training field. Even if they weren't, they would be at home. Very few of them left the village.
Only the thirty members of the hunting squad would occasionally go out to hunt.
As for the clan's number one expert, Teng Qingshan, he also stayed in the village and didn't enter the mountain. All of Teng Jia Village was prepared to face the enemy.
In this chaotic era, if one wanted to protect the clan, they could only rely on themselves.
*****
The martial arts field was in an uproar.
"Ha!"
"Ha!"
The clansmen were either practicing their spear arts or the Tiger Fist. There were also clansmen who were lifting stone weights, rolling iron balls, and carrying water buckets to build up their strength. Although these training methods were simple, they were very effective. Under the threat of danger, the clansmen trained even harder.
The women, on the other hand, did farming, washing, cooking, taking care of the children, and many other trivial tasks.
The strong men only needed to train hard. Only the weak men would be busy with trivial tasks like the women.
"Second Mother, don't cry." Three women were washing clothes as they spoke together. One of the women's eyes were red.
"My little brother was killed. He was killed by the Iron Mountain Gang," the woman said as tears flowed down her cheeks. "My little brother was the most obedient. When he was young, he liked to sleep with me. He loved to eat the flatbread I made. "She said while sobbing," But, he died just like that. "
The other women's eyes also turned red from her words.
"Second Mother, your family's Great Li Village is fine. Only a few people died. The Iron Mountain Gang took the money and left. That Black Wood Village was slaughtered. My husband's third brother's daughter-in-law, her parents, younger brothers, and younger sisters all died. Sigh … "The women sighed.
"It's better to marry into our Teng Jia Village."
"Yes, Teng Jia Village is a famous and powerful village within a radius of ten Li."
"In my hometown, I have a niece called Fang Lan. She is very beautiful. I also want to introduce her to the men of Teng Jia Village."
The women discussed among themselves. In this era, which village was strong and not bullied? Then it would be easy for the men of this village to find women. After all, parents also had to think about their children. Sending them to a strong village where they could eat well, wear warm clothes, and not be bullied was already a good life in their dreams.
"The Iron Mountain Gang has already gone to many villages. I don't know when they will come to our village."
"Don't jinx it. I don't want to see those bastards come my entire life."
While the discussion was going on.
The earth suddenly trembled.
"The sound of horse hooves!" Almost everyone in the entire training field turned their heads to look at the entrance of the village. The White Horse Gang collected the annual tribute every year, so everyone was already familiar with the sound of horse hooves. The earth trembling was obviously caused by the sound of horse hooves. However … this time, it wasn't the White Horse Gang that came!
Today, the expressions of Teng Qinghu's group of people who didn't go hunting and were instead on the training field changed greatly.
This was a cavalry troop. With just a glance, they couldn't see the end of this cavalry troop. It was very obvious … this troop had many people and horses.
"It's the Iron Mountain Gang!"
A mournful shout rang out!
"Haha … Boys of Teng Jia Village!" A loud laugh rumbled like thunder. The person at the front of the densely packed cavalry troop was a strong bald man wearing armor. The horse this bald man was sitting on was completely red and eight feet tall. It was the Scarlet Flame Horse from Da Rong Province that was worth a thousand taels of silver.
On the saddle of the Scarlet Flame Horse, there were two huge copper round hammers. There were small awls on the hammers.
Just by looking at it, one could tell that each of these copper round hammers weighed a hundred Jin.
The bald man suddenly flew up from the Scarlet Flame Horse as light as a feather. At the same time, he held the two copper hammers with both hands. The two copper hammers were connected by an iron chain that was at least one Zhang long. The bald man laughed loudly and suddenly waved the copper hammer in his left hand. At the same time, he shouted, "Open!" The big iron hammer streaked across the sky like a meteor, creating a terrifying, ear-piercing whistling sound as it smashed onto the main gate of Teng Jia Village.
"Boom!"
The entire main gate trembled and suddenly burst open with a bang. The broken pieces of thick wood flew everywhere.
Afterwards, the bald man withdrew his copper hammers and descended from the sky. The Scarlet Flame Horse seemed to understand human nature and actually ran over, causing the bald man to land on the horse.
"How is this possible?" Teng Qinghu and the others sucked in a breath of cold air as they stared dumbfoundedly at the fragments of the main gate.
The main gate of the Teng Jia Village was built using some of the hard giant wood from the Great Yan Mountain. Even if a dozen strong men carried wooden stakes and smashed it, they still wouldn't be able to break it open. In the past, the leader of the cavalry under the command of the Yangzhou Salt Merchant had cleverly split open the iron gate. However, this bald man had directly smashed the gate.
"It's impossible to break open the main gate without the strength of ten thousand Jin." This was what Teng Yunlong had said.
At this moment, the clansmen were completely stunned.
Could it be …
This bald man had the strength of ten thousand Jin?
"Rumble ~ ~ ~" Under the leadership of the bald leader, a large number of mounted gangsters rushed into the training field like a gust of wind.
"Get lost." The mounted gangsters laughed loudly and wantonly hacked at the Teng clansmen on the training field with the machetes in their hands.
