These three men were all young and strong. When they saw Wu Qiu, they were all stunned, and then their expressions changed.

Wu Qiu has a sharp eye; just by looking at these guys' expressions, he can tell they were definitely involved.

The three people in front of them also showed anger when they saw the man who was tied up with rattan by Ying.

"What are you doing! Release them now! Or we'll get rough!"

Although they shouted loudly, both Wu Qiu and Ying could hear the guilt in their voices. This put them at ease.

After all, the fact that they feel guilty proves that these people are not inherently bad, which makes the problem easier to solve.

"What are we doing? Don't you know?"

Wu Qiu stared at the three of them. The three of them felt a little guilty under his gaze, but then they straightened their backs and stood up straight with an air of righteous indignation.

Wu Qiu was furious. He took a deep breath and yelled at them, "Pay up!!!!!"

The sound was so loud it echoed throughout the entire village. The three men panicked and quickly shouted, "What are you yelling about!"

A smile crept into Wu Qiu's heart. "It seems I guessed right. Very few people in the village know about their robbery, and they don't want anyone else in the village to know."

"Stop wasting time talking to him, grab him first, and get him out of here." With that, one of them rushed towards Wu Qiu.

Clearly, they were also afraid that Wu Qiu would shout out that they had stolen their things, so they wanted to subdue him first.

Ying certainly wouldn't let them succeed. Although she wouldn't hurt these people, she would never actually watch Wu Qiu get beaten up.

Ying threw the man, who was bound with vines, to Wu Qiu and walked straight in the direction the three had come from.

Upon seeing that it was a woman, and perhaps out of fear of actually hurting Ying, the other person noticeably softened their movements considerably.

But Ying is no ordinary woman. The leader reached out to grab Ying, but she easily dodged him with a sidestep.

He swiftly moved, grabbing the man's wrist with one hand and pressing his other hand down on the man's shoulder. With a downward thrust and a tripping motion, the tall man in front of him screamed, spun in the air, and collapsed to the ground.

The other man saw the leader fall in an instant, and before he could react, Ying was already in front of him. Then he felt his throat being grabbed and his feet being tripped from behind.

With a thud, the man also fell to the ground. The last man, who was rushing forward, tried to stop upon seeing this scene, but it was clearly too late.

Just as he was about to collide with Ying, Ying dodged to the side and tripped him with her leg, causing him to fall onto the second man.

In the blink of an eye, Ying dealt with the three men in front of her who were all taller and stronger than her. Wu Qiu couldn't help but exclaim again, "Having bodyguards is fucking awesome!"

Ying didn't strike too hard; in fact, none of the three were injured, they just looked rather disheveled. Of course, Ying also told them about the disparity in strength between the two sides, and warned them not to rush forward again.

The man in Wu Qiu's arms struggled frantically at first, trying to tell his companion not to act impulsively, after all, he knew how powerful Ying was.

But now he could only shake his head helplessly, because the three of them had already been taken down.

"Who, who exactly are you people?"

The three stood up. This time they weren't so impulsive; their eyes were filled with fear as they looked at Ying.

"Hehe! This is my sister Ying. You've all seen it; you're no match for her. Hurry up and pay back the money! Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"

The three ignored Wu Qiu's smug expression. They continued to stare at Ying, their eyes lost in thought.

Ying felt uncomfortable being stared at, and for the first time, she actually hid behind Wu Qiu. Wu Qiu immediately stepped in front of the three of them, looking at them like a vicious dog.

"What are you doing! Are you being a pervert? Keep looking! Look again! I'll gouge your eyes out, you hear me?!"

The three were so frightened by Wu Qiu's domineering aura, like a vicious dog guarding its food, that they actually dared not look at him.

Ying also stepped out from behind Wu Qiu. "We have no ill intentions. We just want an explanation from you."

The three men looked at each other, and before they could speak, several children ran out from the corner. The little girl in the lead shouted as she ran up to one of the men, blocking his way and saying, "Bad sister! Don't bully my dad!"

Ying was taken aback. Then another boy, who looked a little older, appeared, probably around eleven or twelve years old.

"Bad man, let go of my dad!"

Though small in stature, he exuded an imposing aura, pointing at Wu Qiu and shouting. Wu Qiu glanced at the man in his arms and clearly saw the emotion in his eyes.

"You're a grown man, and you send your son to save you? What's with the emotion?"

Wu Qiu thought to himself. At the same time, he pointed at the child and said, "Little brat, get out of the way, or I'll hurt you."

The child wasn't afraid; he clenched his fists and charged forward. Wu Qiu didn't dodge, standing there confidently.

"What a joke! How much strength could a little kid like you have? Cough cough!..."

................................................

This kid punched me in the chest twice...

No, I wasn't faking it, guys, I really wasn't. This is... internal injury. This little brat is incredibly strong; those two punches almost knocked me out of my wits.

Seeing that the child was about to hit me again, I quickly dropped the person I was holding and ran away, yelling, "Oh no! Sister Ying, help me!"

I ran and he chased me, and we ran around this area more than a dozen times.

I've been wondering why a young man in his twenties like me could be chased by a child who's only ten years old.

And what's more! I've already done over ten laps and I'm completely out of breath, but this kid is still jumping around so much.

Ying watched from the side, speechless. Who would have thought that a twenty-year-old young man would be chased and beaten by a child?

"Hey! I'm telling you, I don't bully kids. If you keep pushing me, I'll fight back! I really will!"

As more and more people gathered around, Wu Qiu finally couldn't run anymore. He turned around and grabbed the child's head, yelling, "Don't move! Don't move! If you move again, I'll kick you!"

This kid is really strong, but he's still just a child. With Wu Qiu holding his head down, he could only wave his hands in a show of force, but he couldn't hit anything.

"What's going on? What happened? Why are you all gathered here?"

Suddenly, a somewhat aged voice rang out. Soon, the crowd parted to make way for an old man leaning on a cane.

Upon seeing this scene, the old man was shocked and pointed at Wu Qiu: "How can you, a grown man, bully a child?"

Wu Qiu was stunned, thinking, "Old man, are you serious? He was chasing me and flirting with me just now. Who bullied whom? And didn't you see that the other villagers didn't help? Can't you think about why they didn't help?"

"Little Tiger, come back!" The old man seemed to have some authority. With a stern shout, the boy named Little Tiger stopped chasing Wu Qiu and turned back to his father, who had just escaped.

"Speak, you two, what brings you to our village?"

The old man spoke, his voice not loud but carrying an air of authority. This infuriated Wu Qiu, who thought, "You stole my things and you think you're so great?"

I was about to speak as I pointed at him, but Ying stopped me. She shook her head at me, then looked at the children.

Clearly, these children are unaware that their father stole their belongings. If they were to speak out about it here, it would traumatize their young minds.

“Sir, we have some private business to discuss. Could we speak in private?”

Ying was very polite. The old man wasn't stupid; seeing the four grown men's grim expressions, he knew something was wrong.

"Alright, everyone disperse." After saying that, he looked at Wu Qiuying and the four villagers and said, "You guys come with me."

"But village chief..."

Some villagers were worried. But the village chief waved his hand and said, "What's there to be afraid of? I only have this old life left, and our village has nothing left either. What's there to be afraid of in this state?"

After speaking, the village chief led the way, while the four behind him looked grim. Wu Qiu and Ying, however, began to whisper among themselves.

"Hey, Sister Ying, do you think this might be a trap?"

Ying shook her head. "It shouldn't be. It's just an ordinary village, and we arrived suddenly. They probably didn't have time to set up a trap."

Wu Qiu felt a little relieved, but still said, "Sister Ying, if there's any danger later, you must take me with you when you run away."

"I've already decided to run southeast. There are the fewest people and houses there, and they're all old men."

Ying said helplessly, "Could you be any more of a coward? And do I look like the kind of person who would run away alone and abandon his friends?"

"Besides, we might not even be in danger. I'm quite strong too."

Despite Ying's words, Wu Qiu still preferred to play it safe. Therefore, he remained highly vigilant, ensuring he could hide behind Ying as quickly as possible should anything unexpected happen.

Following the village chief of Xiaolin Village, Wu Qiu and his group arrived at a very ordinary house in the village.

The village chief opened the door and turned around, saying, "Come in and sit down."

The four people in front went in first, and Wu Qiu and Ying hesitated for only a moment before following them in.

The interior was very ordinary, just a typical wooden cabin, neither luxurious nor luxurious. There was very little furniture; it looked like the most ordinary wooden cabin no matter how you looked at it.

There was only one table inside, not very big, just enough for five people to sit at. But at that moment, only three of us were sitting on it: the village chief, Ying, and me.

The four stood there, like children who had done something wrong. The village chief snorted coldly, "Speak, what exactly happened?"

The four looked at each other, and finally one of them sighed and recounted what had happened that day.

Wu Qiu finally learned the whole story. It turned out that a few months ago, their village had a bumper harvest, and the stored grain was enough to feed every household, with plenty left over.

This should have been a good thing, but a few days later a group of Hilichurls arrived. There weren't many, only six.

Although there were only six, they were still not something an ordinary person could handle. In order to prevent anyone from getting hurt, the village chief ordered his men to quickly pack up a small amount of food and the entire village to temporarily flee Xiaolin Village for refuge.

They waited for four days before finally daring to return. By then, Xiaolin Village had been almost completely destroyed.

Everything that could be destroyed was destroyed, and all the food was taken away. The remaining food was not enough to eat, so the able-bodied men of the village had to go to the forest to find food.

Days passed, and a few days ago, there was nothing left on the outskirts of the forest, so they had to venture deeper. It was then that they encountered Wu Qiu and robbed him of his dried meat.

Although there wasn't much dried meat, it was enough to keep Xiaolin Village afloat until now, along with the other food they found.

After listening to their story, the village chief slammed his cane into the ground, making a loud thud. "You guys, what can I even say to you!"

The village chief wanted to say something, but he didn't. After all, they were doing it for the village. But it was clear that their actions were very unethical.

"Hey you guys, do I look that evil? You didn't even ask me. Maybe I'd take pity on you and give it to you."

"This guy, without even asking any questions, just covered his head and started kicking around. Oh right! Someone else was going to kick his crotch, who was it!"

"Where am I calling?" The four exchanged glances again, and one of them hesitated before saying, "Mainly, when we first saw you, you were in a terrible state, and you were cursing and swearing as you walked. You clearly had a bad temper..."

"Hey! Stop! Stop!!!"

I stopped them. Taking a deep breath, I turned to the village chief: "I don't care about your village, you're paying up!!!"

The village chief was in a dilemma: "We don't have Mora, and our village has never used Mora."

At this moment, Ying finally couldn't hold back any longer, "Although I don't understand, this world should have city-states or countries. Don't the countries care about you?"

Ying also asked Wu Qiuxin this question. "Yes, this is the territory of that god, why is no one doing anything about the Hilichurls attacking here?"

The village chief sighed, "Nominally, this area is under the jurisdiction of the Wind God, but in reality, it can also be considered unclaimed land."
