Chapter 16 The New Boss
Tengjiazhuang is surrounded by high wooden fences, and tribe members are guarding the gate.
"The Hunter Team is back!" The gate guard shouted.
On the martial arts training ground of the clan, many tribesmen ran over with chatting and laughing, but when they saw many people's faces changed drastically. From a distance, they saw blood on the bodies of the hunter team members, traces of bandage, and some carcasses carried by some tribe members.
Some tribe members died!
"Qianzi!" A cry of grief sounded.
"Go and notify the patriarch!" someone immediately shouted loudly, his voice very shrill.
...
After a while, nearly two thousand people gathered on the martial arts training ground, except for those who were farming in the fields, they all gathered here. Everyone had a heavy expression, especially some families of the dead tribesmen, who were kneeling on the ground crying. The patriarch Teng Yunlong also had a sad look on his face.
"This time the Hunter Team went up the mountain and encountered the Wolf King on a patrol! Five people died in the Hunter Team, four of them were disabled!" Teng Yunlong's voice was low, and there was a faint crying sound in the crowd.
"Teng Yonglian, Teng Yongqiang, Teng Yongyi..." Teng Yunlong reported five names at once.
"They died for my Teng clan. The family members of the five of them will give them compensation of 100 taels of silver for each family. From today on, the family members will support them!" Teng Yunlong's voice seemed to have not fluctuated. This is the old rule. The compensation for the clan's death in battle was 100 taels of silver, and the disabled was compensated for 50 taels of silver. The family members were supported by the entire clan.
Teng Qingshan looked at this scene silently.
In recent years, although he had heard that any other farm was killed by robbers and bandits, he didn't see it. He just heard that there was no such shock. Because Tengjiazhuang is a relatively strong big farm, ordinary robbers and bandits are unwilling to provoke, and the White Horse Gang collected New Year's money.
The tribe members of Tengjiazhuang have been living a peaceful life and no one has been killed for a long time.
After all, if you enter the mountains and encounter the Wolf King on a patrol, it will only take you once in decades.
"Immediately!" Teng Yunlong's voice suddenly recalled, awakening Teng Qingshan.
cremation.
This is the rule within the clan.
Fires soared into the sky, and the corpses placed on the wood were once familiar elders in the tribe. The crying sounds were heard around them, but more people were watching all this quietly. Because they had experienced deeper and more unforgettable suffering.
They had known for a long time that bleeding is necessary to survive on this land.
That's why the tribesmen practiced hard since childhood and had no day to relax.
*******
Teng clan ancestral hall.
"Squeak!" The thick iron door was opened, and the family members holding five boxes of ashes were crying and walked into the ancestral hall.
Teng Qingshan and his father Teng Yongfan were together, watching all this quietly. The ancestral hall was extremely space, which was different from the arsenal. There were boxes of urns placed in the ancestral hall. Just saw thousands of urns, and the dense urns were placed neatly.
"This is the ashes of my ancestors who have died for the clan for thousands of years." Teng Qingshan also knew this.
Not everyone can enter the ancestral hall.
In the thousands of years of history of the Teng clan, those who died for the clan and those who contributed to the clan can only enter the ancestral hall after death. However, those who are mediocre and inaction can only be cremated after death and cannot enter the ancestral hall. The name cannot be placed on the "Teng clan monument".
"Teng Clan Monument!"
Teng Qingshan looked at the striking sight in the ancestral hall, and there were large stone tablets that stood one meter high. Each stone tablet had dense names, and each name represented the ancestors of the Teng clan's history.
"The name of the Zuo clan monument." Teng Yunlong said in a low voice.
Immediately, a gray-haired old man walked to a huge stone tablet with a carving knife and carefully carved the names of five people.
"Woo woo..." The low crying of the families of the deceased made the atmosphere even more sad.
Teng Yunlong walked to the family of the deceased. The dead were the strongest. Most of their children were just teenagers, and the oldest was only twenty years old. Teng Yunlong touched the head of a child and looked at the teenagers: "Your fathers are all heroes of my Teng clan. They died for the clan. You must be proud of them!"
"Yes." The boys nodded suddenly.
A few years later, these teenagers will also fight to protect the clan like their fathers. The Teng clan can last for thousands of years because this unyielding spirit has been passed down from generation to generation.
*******
Eight people gathered in the main hall of the patriarch Teng Yunlong.
In addition to the patriarch Teng Yunlong, there are also Teng Yonglei, Teng Yongxiang, Teng Yongfan, and three old men in the clan, plus one person - Teng Qingshan!
"Yong Lei, you did a good job this time. The wolf king's corpse cannot pierce the fur, especially the wolf king's corpse is snow-white all over and the fur is not damaged. This wolf king's skin is bigger than a tiger. Many rich and powerful people want to buy it. The price is not lower than that of the ferret fur!" Teng Yunlong said.
This time, the clan gained a lot.
The wolf king's skin is rarer and more precious than the ferret skin, especially the wolf king is snow-white all over.
"Class leader." Teng Yonglei said, "This time, there are actually Qingshan. If it weren't for him, we could escape back at most two or three people this time. Not to mention killing the wolf king, the four wolf king, the wolf king, and more than a hundred wild wolves, but Qingshan killed them."
Many people present looked at Teng Qingshan, who was still just a teenager.
Although it was sad that some tribe members died this time, they lived in this chaotic world. When they knew Teng Qingshan's amazing force, they felt a sense of ecstasy in their hearts.
One person kills hundreds of wild wolves, four wolves, and one wolf king... What a terrible strong man? And such a strong man is less than ten years old. How powerful will he be when he becomes an adult? The most important thing is... Such a strong man belongs to their Teng clan!
"Qingshan, good." Teng Yunlong said.
"Luckily, Qingshan did not go to Guiyuan Sect at the beginning." Teng Yongxiang sighed, "If I were in Guiyuan Sect, I might not have such a great shooting technique. Qingshan's child... thought about it alone, it was better than others taught." When everyone knew Teng Qingshan's achievements, everyone agreed to Teng Qingshan's strength.
The undisputed number one hero in the clan!
Teng Yunlong and some others were also glad that they did not send Teng Qingshan to Guiyuan Sect. If Teng Qingshan was in Guiyuan Sect, they would not be able to help the clan at all. Unless Teng Qingshan was in a high position in Guiyuan Sect, they might be helpful to the clan. Distant water cannot quench the thirst in the near future. Teng Qingshan is in the clan, of course, it will be more helpful to the clan.
"The spear in Qingshan was broken when fighting with the Wolf King, and that spear was a little shorter for Qingshan now." Teng Yongxiang said.
"Well, yes, it's time to change to a spear. Qingshan, let's go to the arsenal now." Teng Yunlong stood up with a smile.
Teng Qingshan also walked towards the arsenal with everyone.
Teng Qingshan was a six-year-old child back then, and the seven-foot Qingnan spear was a little too long. But now he is over nine years old, and in more than three months, he will be ten years old. His current height is five feet and eight inches (one meter four five). Using a seven-foot long spear would be short. In terms of his height, the best length of the spear is about seven feet and six inches.
The arsenal opened violently.
"Qingshan, you choose a spear." Teng Yunlong said with a smile.
There are many spears stored in the clan, and they don’t need to be specially refined at all, they just need to be selected.
The wooden spear, even the tallest green nanmu, is considered to be a bit poor for Teng Qingshan.
"This place is just an ordinary iron gun, and it is a very small size. The quality of the iron gun is much worse than that of the iron gun, and it is much lighter." Teng Qingshan walked around, his eyes stayed on the rod of a iron gun, stretched out his hand, and tried to wave it twice. "This iron gun rod is well craftsmanship and weight is just right. With the spear head, it is about two meters. Although it is a little taller, it has no effect on me. In the future, you can continue to use it for a while if you get taller."
Teng Qingshan turned to look at Teng Yunlong: "Grandpa, just this one."
"Qingshan, this is a top iron spear. With the gun tip, the gun is eight feet long and weighs fifty-two kilograms. If you encounter a group battle, it will take too much effort. Change it to another one." Teng Yunlong said, human strength is limited, and wielding heavy weapons for a long time will exhaust all your strength after a long time.
Teng Qingshan smiled: "Just it, don't change it!"
To reach the state of "man and gun integration", when Teng Qingshan used the spear, his body muscles were only partially exerting force. If this part of the muscles was exerting force, and the other part of the muscles would not be tired after resting for a day. With his master Xingyi's ability to control muscles and muscles, how could he be tired if he played a spear of 52 pounds?
What's more, he still has internal strength!
"Okay, I can't tell you." Teng Yunlong went to the box with a smile and found the matching spear head. The iron gun is indeed very craftsmanship. The spear head and the gun rod are not connected in a slot type, but contain nearly one foot long threads, which firmly connect the spear head to the gun rod.
The red tassel had a bloody smell. Obviously, this iron spear drank countless blood.
"Huh?" Teng Qingshan twisted the gun rod in surprise, rotated it, and divided the gun rod into two halves.
Teng Yunlong smiled and said, "The gun rod is divided into two pieces, and the center is also connected with threads. Usually, the spear is too long and can be disassembled. When it is used, then connect it." Teng Qingshan was very satisfied with this skill. After connecting the iron spear, he danced a few randomly.
"Huh, Huh!"
The gun shadows were flying, with a scream that pierced the air.
"Not bad." Teng Qingshan became more and more satisfied. The toughness of this iron spear is very good. If internal strength is infused, it will be fine if it bears tens of thousands of pounds of strength.
"Class leader." Teng Yonglei, who was standing by, spoke at this time, with a hint of bitterness on his face, "My left arm is broken now and I am no longer suitable to be the leader of the Hunter Team. From today on, I will stay in the clan. As for the leader of the Hunter Team, the patriarch, you should choose another person."
Suddenly the atmosphere changed.
"Yonglei." Teng Yongfan patted Teng Yonglei's shoulder comfortably and broke his left arm. This was a very painful thing for a martial man.
"Yonglei, you will stay in the clan from now on. As for the leader of the hunter team..." Teng Yunlong turned his head and his eyes fell on Teng Qingshan.
The other old men present, including Teng Yongfan, Teng Yonglei and Teng Yongxiang, all turned to look at Teng Qingshan.
Teng Qingshan was shocked?
What does it mean, myself? I am still three or four months old, only ten years old.
"Qingshan!" Teng Yunlong stared at him, "Heroes don't care about their youth. In this chaotic world, they don't care about their age, they only look at their strength! From today on, you will be the leader of the Hunter Team! You have to remember... You are now the number one hero of our Teng clan! As the first person in the clan, you must take responsibility!"
Teng Yongfan also looked at his son: "Qingshan, men must be responsible! The number one hero in the clan must be responsible for the first hero. From today on, you must learn to take on this responsibility. In the future, the clan will rely on you to lead it!"
"Yes, dad." Teng Qingshan suddenly felt that a sense of responsibility fell on him.
In the past, the various problems of the clan were solved by his father, grandfather and others, so he could be carefree.
