Yueya Village was bullied because it was weak. If there was a powerful warrior guarding it, who would dare to cause trouble?
For the first time, Li Feng was so eager for strength, eager to become stronger, protect the relatives around him, defend his dignity, and never let them be threatened in any way.
Hearing the pirate leader's vicious threats, Li Longshan's face changed slightly. A group of villagers behind him were also frightened, and their simple faces were covered with cold sweat.
Who is Qiu Qianjun? He is the third master of Jiulang Island. He has dominated this sea area for decades. He has a fierce reputation and unfathomable strength.
He alone is enough to destroy most of Crescent Moon Village. His words are not just a threat, he is indeed a ruthless person who can do what he says.
Li Longshan showed a wry smile: "Okay, Master Qiu, don't be angry, the old man just made a joke to you!"
"The money has been prepared for a long time, please take a look!"
Say it, Li Longshan winked at Li Yunfeng next to him.
Li Yunfeng nodded knowingly, and then squeezed out of the crowd with two young men. After a while, he came over carrying two iron boxes.
Bang! Bang!
Two iron boxes hit the ground, throwing up a cloud of dust. Li Yunfeng unscrewed the lock and opened the lid of the box, revealing a pile of ancient copper coins inside.
On the front of these copper coins is a mysterious island with an ancient temple on it.
On the back, there are two crossed scimitars printed on it!
These patterns seem to have some special meaning!
"Master Qiu, please take a look. There are a total of 10,000 copper coins here, which were accumulated bit by bit by everyone in our village!" Li Longshan said with a smile.
Qiu Qianjun glanced at the two iron boxes and sneered: "Just looking at it for such a small amount of money is not enough for me to go to Paradise Island for a night!"
"Haha!" Li Longshan forced a smile: "Then the old man will not be far away!"
Qiu Qianjun glanced sideways at Li Longshan and a group of villagers behind him, and sneered: "Brothers, take the guy and go, close the team!"
Hearing the master's loud shouts, several pirates picked up the iron boxes and turned around to leave. The pirates gathered around the fence also quickly gathered around, followed Qiu Qianjun, and ran towards the bay.
Looking at the pirates receding like a tide, Li Longshan and Li Yunfeng breathed a sigh of relief. The other villagers also put down their weapons one after another, as if a big stone had been lifted from their hearts, and ran home to comfort their wives and children.
"Every time pirates come to collect offerings, the villagers are always on tenterhooks."
"When will the days of being oppressed by pirates end?" Li Longshan said bitterly, his face full of exhaustion.
Li Yunfeng next to him said with a guilty look on his face: "Clan leader, it's Yunfeng who failed to live up to expectations and failed to perform meritorious service and come back to gain recognition from Ziyou Mansion so that everyone can live a comfortable life."
"Okay, you've tried your best!" Li Longshan patted Li Yunfeng's broad shoulder and comforted him in a low voice.
"Your mission now is to teach those young people well!"
"Even if we train a seven-star warrior, our Crescent Moon Village will no longer be threatened by those dirty and despicable pirates!"
"Our village cannot rely on Ziyou Mansion, we must rely on ourselves!"
"After all, water from afar cannot quench thirst from near!"
Hearing the clan leader's sigh, Li Yunfeng immediately nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, clan leader, Yunfeng will do his best to cultivate those younger generations!"
The patriarch is right, water from afar cannot quench thirst from near.
The Senluo Sea covers a hundred thousand miles, and countless islands are dotted all over the sea.
These islands are roughly divided into two types: uninhabited islands and inhabited islands.
But there are too many islands, and the sea is extremely vast. Although Ziyou Mansion controls this sea area, it cannot control many places at all.
There are only 108 islands that are truly recognized by Ziyou Mansion. Why, because they are all places guarded by nine-star warriors and even extraordinary experts.
There are countless small islands like Qinggan Island in the sea, too many to count.
Ziyou Mansion has limited power and has no time to take care of it, and many islands cannot be controlled.
So it gave those notorious pirates an opportunity to take advantage of it.
When pirates establish a foothold in a certain sea area, they will kill a lot of people immediately to establish their reputation.
Then they spread it widely on the islands they commanded, and used ruthless methods to force ordinary villagers living on the islands to pay tribute money.
If you don't pay, the village will be massacred and the corpses will be destroyed!
If you want to be free from the control of pirates, the village must have powerful warriors in charge.
This is why the village pays special attention to teaching children to practice martial arts.
Because children are young and their muscles and bones are still in the development stage, they have huge potential!
Just in case one day, a super strong man is cultivated.
Everyone in the village will benefit from this.
It is said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
Hearing Li Yunfeng's firm voice, Li Longshan nodded happily: "Well, thank you for your hard work!"
Ever since the pirates came to the village and forced the clan leader to pay the tribute money, the whole village was talking about it everywhere and there was no peace.
As a coach, Li Yunfeng shouldered heavy pressure and became even more strict in teaching the young people to practice martial arts.
He would change his methods every day and teach the young people to exercise, strengthen their physical strength, and strengthen their muscles and bones.
On the other hand, he taught them through words and deeds, teaching them swordsmanship and honing their skills.
The amount of training was obviously twice as much as usual, but no one complained.
Because the teenagers all know that if they sweat more on weekdays and bleed less during war, the future safety of the village depends on them.
Only by becoming stronger can you have the strength to protect your loved ones around you.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
The village has returned to its former peace.
After practicing swordsmanship for a month, Li Feng's body was obviously much stronger, his eyes were bright, and his mental outlook was full of vigor.
On this day, it was summer in June. The sun was scorching hot, the climate was warming, the sea water was rising, and a large number of marine fish migrated from distant places to escape the cold.
Many villagers who went out to sea to catch fish found that the number of fish near Qinggan Island increased sharply than usual, and the products were rich.
For fishermen, the more fish they catch, this also means that their income will increase significantly.
After two hours of training in the morning, Li Feng followed his father and prepared to go fishing with a harpoon net.
My sister Li Ye and her mother prepared sweet cakes and fresh water for them early, specifically to replenish their strength when they go fishing in the sea.
