Luo Feng was too embarrassed to refuse because he was short-tongued and soft-handed. He could only say: "Of course, there are only three of us. I'm afraid it will be in vain if we go there. We won't be of much use."
Gust thought it made sense. If he sent three people there, he would definitely be laughed at. If there were too many people and he was reluctant to give up, he thought about it and said, "How about you form a team, and you can pick as many of the militiamen in my training ground as you like. "
"Isn't one team too small?" Zhang Xuli looked a little dissatisfied when he saw that Gust was so stingy.
Gust continued: "Don't worry, I will distribute your coins according to the brigade's standards."
Having money, Zhang Xuli reluctantly said: "We can still consider this." Then he asked Luo Feng, "Lao Luo, what do you say?"
Looking at the current situation, if he refuses, he really can't say it. Luo Feng can only say: "Okay, then you, the ancient village chief, will pay the coins of our team. However, after completing the mission, this team will probably not be able to return to Leiya Village, otherwise Zhang Shunxiao I will definitely know that you assigned me.”
"Yes," Gust walked up to Luo Feng and said, "Then I will wrong you. No matter where you go, I will have someone give you coins."
"Okay, then pay it once a year. Pay it in advance. Maybe it will fail tomorrow. You have to enjoy it today, have a baby or something."
"Uh, haha," Gust felt that the negotiation was safe, and seeing Zhang Xuli's humor, he laughed, "Okay, okay, I'll pay for one year in advance."
The year's salary of this brigade has almost used up the coin warehouse of Rhea Village. Gust did not think about it carefully, or maybe he was a little drunk. When Luo Feng and others left, he began to regret it.
In the training ground of Leya Village, Luo Feng gathered all the militiamen together and said: "There are some things I won't say in detail. I have now received an order from the ancient village chief to select the seven strongest people among you to join our team."
Luo Feng stopped and looked around everyone. Seeing that everyone looked confused, he added: "The team we are about to form does not belong to any village, and the salary is generous."
Everyone's faces showed joy when they heard that the salary was generous.
Luo Feng added: "Now let's start the selection. Everyone will run around the training ground. Whoever is first after fifty laps will win."
"How can you show the level of combat power compared to running?" a militiaman suddenly shouted.
Luo Feng saw that the man was tall and powerful, with a ferocious face, strong limbs, and a loud voice, and asked: "Who is this man?"
A captain next to him replied: "His name is Liu Zhen. He is a squad captain. He fights bravely and has good fighting ability."
Luo Feng glanced at Liu Zhen with his sharp eyes and continued to shout loudly: "Start running."
"Hmph," Liu Zhen snorted coldly, looked unhappy, and ran out with the crowd.
"This guy thinks he is something, with a face that looks like he's been beaten." Zhang Xuli said angrily.
"Then get him into the team later and you can train him properly." Feng Ziying continued.
Zhang Xuli glanced at Liu Zhen, who was running, and said, "Boy, do you still need me? You can take care of him with one hand."
"With one hand, that won't work. If you make a mistake, wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Feng Ziying shook her head repeatedly.
"Don't make any noise. If he can join our team, I will teach him."
As soon as Luo Feng spoke, Zhang Xuli and Feng Ziying stared at Luo Feng for a long time. Zhang Xuli muttered for a while, "It's over. This guy is really over. Even our old Luo can't stand it anymore."
After thirty laps, only a dozen people were still running. Luo Feng shouted: "Run quickly, at this speed, no one is qualified."
Liu Zhen was running in the third position. He was sweating profusely and his clothes were soaked half of his body.
"What's wrong with this kid?" Zhang Xuli said proudly.
Luo Feng looked at Liu Zhen and said, "Running is just a test of endurance. In the future, our team will need someone with good endurance."
"Yes, it's good to deliver letters and run errands." Zhang Xuli continued.
Feng Ziying stared at Zhang Xuli and said, "Why do you always sound so uncomfortable when words come into your mouth?"
"That's because I'm talented and can control my words to the extreme."
"Just blow it."
"Hey, look, Liu Zhen has passed the second place." Feng Ziying pointed at Liu Zhen and said.
Luo Feng saw Liu Zhen's breath was confused, his steps were heavy, and his eyes were dazed, and said, "This is already his limit."
Zhang Xuli saw that the person running first had surpassed Liu Zhen by two laps, and he exclaimed: "This guy who is running first is very capable."
The captain on the side said: "This man's name is Guan Pei. He always ranks first in long-distance running. The one Liu Zhen is most dissatisfied with is Guan Pei."
"Oh, that's it. No wonder I don't dare to compete with others in running." Zhang Xuli said with ridicule.
After fifty laps, Guan Pei was far ahead and passed the finish line first, followed by Liu Zhen second.
Luo Feng shouted to Guan Pei: "The first one, come here."
Guan Pei is thin in stature, has agile limbs and very flexible eyes. When he heard Luo Feng calling him, he immediately ran to Luo Feng.
"What's your name?" Luo Feng asked.
"Guan Pei." The voice was loud and crisp.
"Okay, welcome to join our team." Luo Feng pointed his hand and motioned for Guan Pei to stand on his side.
Guan Pei understood what he meant and said loudly: "Yes, captain." He immediately ran to stand beside Luo Feng and others.
Seeing Guan Pei join Luo Feng's team, Liu Zhen felt extremely uncomfortable, but he couldn't say anything. He could only turn red with anger, his eyes popped out, turned his face, and walked away.
After selecting a team member, Luo Feng shouted: "The next step is to compare the fighting strength. Whoever has the stronger fighting strength will win."
Hearing this, Liu Zhen squeezed out a smile. Under normal circumstances, the selection of personnel is to test their combat prowess, but Luo Feng came up with a running competition, causing Liu Zhen to lose the opportunity to show his face.
This time it was finally a battle of strength, and he could save some face. After Liu Zhen was secretly happy, he immediately activated his body's fighting strength and prepared for the competition.
"Okay, everyone, grab your weapons and stand in two rows."
After Luo Feng finished speaking, all the militiamen immediately stood in a row.
"The first row turned back." Luo Feng shouted again.
After a moment, the first row turned around and faced the second row.
"Work in pairs, start fighting, and the winner will emerge."
As soon as Luo Feng finished speaking, shouts broke out on the training ground, and weapons were waved in the crowd.
Liu Zhen just turned sideways to avoid the opponent's attack, and hit the opponent with his side elbow to the ground.
The crowd slowly stopped, and when everyone stopped, the winners stood in two rows again and continued to compete.
After several rounds, only eight people were left standing in the center of the training ground.
Liu Zhen stood confidently, holding a steel knife in his hand, waiting for the next group competition.
Luo Feng looked at these eight people. They were all full of energy, holding weapons in their hands, and showed no fear. He suddenly changed his mind and said, "As long as the eight of you can block Captain Zhang's attack for five minutes, you can all join our team."
