Chapter 81: The Great Elder Retreats
The deer stepped in from outside the hall, after so many years, can he not know what character Hong has, they are all from a tribe, and they all know how old the crotch bird is, not to mention the character.
Since his promotion to the Kaishan Realm, he has returned to the helm of the Shadow Division.
Over the years, he has traveled more places than Xia Tuo, the patriarch, to the southern foot of the Wangu Mountain Range, and even the wasteland outside the mountain, which is his duty as a tribal scout.
"Yo, our Elder Lu is back, it's really rare to see you. ”
Hong sat back in his seat and said with an urn.
Lu didn't bother to take care of him, turned his eyes to Xia Tuo, and said, "Patriarch, I'm back." ”
"Well, sit down. ”
Not long after, the Ministry of War and the Minister of Agriculture all came, entered the hall one by one, and signaled to Xia Tuo.
Xia Tuo's eyes swept over the hall and saw Li sitting on a stone chair squinting his eyes and not speaking, but he was missing a giant.
"Giant hasn't come back yet?"
Li saw Xia Tuo looking at him, and he stretched out his head to look at the front, and found that the top position on the left was vacant, and the great elder had not yet come, so he understood that the patriarch was asking him.
"Patriarch, Ju has not come back to the Rain Tribe, he has been going for eighteen days, and according to the previous days, it will be a day or two to come back. ”
"Hmm. ”
Xia Tuo nodded.
The Seeking Rain Tribe is a medium-sized tribe on the outer edge of the wasteland in the southern part of the Wangu Mountain Range, a powerful tribe with the totem warriors of the Heavenly Vein Realm, and there are six inferior tribes under its command who are vassals alone, which is not even a small tribe that is large and small.
It is true that the black water and the gale tribe are also the gale tribes, but they are not vassals of the rain tribe, the reason is very simple, the rain tribe does not look down on the two small tribes in the mountains.
In Xia Tuo's eyes, the Black Water and Gale tribes are already close to the mountains and have convenient transportation, but in the eyes of the rain tribe, hehe, turtles.
That's right, right now he is one of the turtles in the eyes of the Rain Tribe.
Two years after the destruction of the Blackwater Tribe, he formed a trading team in the tribe and went to the tribes outside the mountains to barter and bring back the resources of the tribes outside the mountains.
Now that five years have passed, it turns out that there is still a scattered sand near the Blackwater tribe, and no more powerful tribes have appeared, as for the Gale tribe.
Now, the Gale Tribe has long been out of his sight, and five years have passed, and the patriarch of the Gale Tribe still hasn't returned, leaving only the one-armed Great Elder to support the tribe, and even the Black Fang Water Area has no energy to occupy it.
"Ahem......"
The coughing sound outside the main hall pulled Xia Tuo's thoughts back, and the great elder, with Qiao'er's support, came towards the clan hall.
Five years have passed, and the Great Elder's reins are getting older and older, his hair is full of silver threads, the wrinkles on his face are like ravines, and his legs and feet are becoming more and more inconvenient.
In fact, as a totem warrior of the Split Stone Realm, the Great Elder should not be like this now, but he suffered a heavy blow when he was young, and now the sequelae have appeared.
Seeing the Great Elder coming, everyone, including Xia Tuo, stood up.
"Sit down, the old man is fine. ”
With Qiao'er's support, the Great Elder came to the front seat on the left side of the lower head.
At this moment, Qiao'er sat down next to the seat of the Great Elder, and now the seat in the hall was decided three years ago.
In the past five years, Qiao'er has become more and more watery, different from the longitudinal growth of women on the wild land, with a slender figure and a kind of agility.
A year ago, the old man retreated into the background and handed over the witch temple to her, while the old man devoted himself to cultivating witches and the entire witchcraft book.
The Great Elder stood up tremblingly and gestured towards Xia Tuo.
Originally, this set of Xia Tuo had already let the great elder be dismissed, but the old man was very stubborn, saying that now the Xia tribe is no longer the small tribe it was at the beginning, the patriarch should be dignified, and some rules cannot be abolished.
As the Great Elder of the Tribal, he should lead by example.
"Patriarch, now there are thousands of fierce beasts in the clan, and some clansmen of the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of War are still taking care of them, which seems to be a little chaotic, and the old man thinks that it is better to set up an elder to raise fierce beasts for the tribe. ”
The old man didn't say a word, and he was out of breath.
"Okay, I don't know which clansman can do it, but there is a candidate. ”
Xia Tuo nodded and agreed, the tribe is now more and more populous, and the natural system also needs to be slowly completed, and special personnel are in charge.
"Cangfu. ”
Hearing this, Hong nodded when he heard this, and said: "Patriarch, I think it's okay, this kid Cangfu seems to really have a natural affinity for fierce beasts, and once he met a green wolf and didn't bite him, he had to come back with him." ”
"Cangfu?"
Xia Tuo groaned lightly, and immediately remembered a young man, who was not tall and quite thin, which simply violated the standards of men in the wild land, just such a small man, not only became a totem warrior, but also brought back several green wind horses to the tribe in the wild old forest.
"Good. ”
Seeing Xia Tuo agree, the Great Elder panted again and said, "Patriarch, the number of medicinal fields in the clan is also gradually expanding......
Seeing that the Great Elder was panting, Elder Shao got up and said, "Patriarch, let's talk about it." ”
Elder Peony's face turned pale, as if she had no blood, a result of her constant experimentation with plants, and even so, she was still happy to discover new plants.
Seeing Shao stand up, the Great Elder nodded.
"Patriarch, the Ministry of Agriculture has cultivated a lot of fields now, although the people in the Ministry of Agriculture are all women, they are also rough, serving corn and sweet potatoes is okay, but the herbs are precious, and the habits are even more tricky, many herbs transplanted from the wilderness have withered, it is better for the patriarch to manage the medicine fields alone. ”
Hearing this, Xia Tuo did not hesitate and agreed.
Now in the Xia tribe, if everyone in the tribe doesn't know the appearance of a few herbs, they are embarrassed to leave the tribe.
However, the habits of various medicinal herbs are different, some like yin, some like yang, and some need to live in water, so the medicinal fields in the tribe are all over the mountains and mountains, and some are outside the tribe mountains.
It is really embarrassing for the old ladies in the clan who dare to fight with the old men with sticks, and who will tear off their animal skin clothes and fight hand-to-hand when they fight fierce beasts, and serve the precious herbs one by one.
Then, Xia Tuo's eyes turned to Qiao'er, who was sitting on the stone chair, shaking her legs with her feet off the ground.
"Patriarch Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Gotcha, distracted, this is.
But for the little ancestors in the tribe, you still have to spoil it.
Xia Tuo didn't care at all, and the elders in the hall didn't care either.
As a teenage girl, it's not easy to stay here.
"Eh, that Qiao'er, will all the medicine fields in the tribe be handed over to your witch hall? ”
Hearing this, Qiao'er snapped her fingers and muttered, "Grandpa Wu wants to teach witches, Qiao'er wants to study witchcraft, and Brother Finch and Brother Yu are going to brand weapons and armor with witch talismans."
Brother Luo went to the depths of the forest and didn't come back for many days, saying that he wouldn't come back if he didn't become a wizard, and Brother Ling was also practicing witchcraft and was preparing for the promotion to a wizard. ”
In this way, in the entire clan hall, the lord of the clan plus the elders were all quietly listening to Qiao'er's argument, and the key was that no one showed a look of anxiety and dissatisfaction.
If the reined fish dared to do this, it would have been beaten up a long time ago.
"Hong Yu and Mu Mu are helping Grandpa Wu teach witches together, Li Feng is preparing witch medicine, and Shao Ming is ...... Sister Shaoming~~"
Qiao'er's eyes lit up, she looked up at Xia Tuo and said, "Patriarch Uncle don't want Sister Shaoming to manage the medicine field, she practices witchcraft like Qiao'er, and has a good affinity for medicinal herbs." ”
Shao Ming is not related to the Minister of Agriculture, but one of the people who has been absorbed into the Witch Hall in the past five years.
Now there are hundreds of witches in the witch hall, and most of them have been collected in the mountains and forests in the clan over the years.
In order to let them join the tribe with peace of mind, Xia Tuo not only branded the totem, but also accepted them to join the Xia tribe, and paid a lot of resources to the original tribe as compensation.
In order to integrate more into the tribe, most of these witches who joined in took the names of the elders of the tribe as their surnames and re-named them.
Shaoming is like this, she is a talented little girl, and her voice is as crisp as a lark.
Now I don't dare to underestimate Qiao'er, at a young age, I replaced the old man Wu to control the Wu Palace, and there are already ten high-level witches under her command, all of whom are obedient to her.
Qiao'er blinked at Xia Tuo with big eyes and said, "Uncle Patriarch, I think Sister Shaoming is okay." ”
"Okay, let Shao Ming serve as the elder of the medicine minister and cultivate medicinal herbs for the clan. ”
"Thank you, Uncle, you're so nice. ”
The corners of Xia Tuo's mouth, who was issued a good person card, twitched, and looked at the elders below who were snickering, his eyes widened, and he pretended to be serious: "In the past five years, the development of our tribe has exceeded expectations, and there are more people in the tribe, and there is naturally more division of labor, so it is inevitable that there will be some chaos. Forehead... The Barter Hall is responsible for communicating with tribes other than the tribe. ”
"Ju took his clan to the Rain Tribe and hasn't come back yet, so the hall master of this barter hall will let him lead it. ”
Xia Tuo's order was naturally implemented quickly, and after a few years, the tribe was no longer a clansman with three melons and two dates, and there were all kinds of talents among his clansmen who could take on various clan affairs.
"Patriarch. ”
The voice of the Great Elder rang out.
"Now that he is old and decrepit, he doesn't have enough energy to deal with the affairs of the clan, and staying in the position of the great elder can only delay the development of the tribe, and the patriarch chooses someone else to take on this responsibility. ”
"Great Elder!"
Hearing this, the entire clan hall stared at the reins.
The Great Elder resigned, and Xia Tuo was also caught off guard.
Back then, he was able to control the tribe by pretending to be a ghost, and the support of the old man and the great elder also contributed a lot, but now the old man has retreated behind the scenes, and the old reins are also going to retreat.
Over the years, thanks to the Great Elder's overall planning and reasonable arrangement of the affairs of the clan, he has been able to reduce so many trivial matters.
The Great Elder smiled, but he didn't have the seriousness of others, he just waved his hand and said: "It's not okay to be old, give the old man food in the future, just bury a piece of land when you die, the tribe should be handed over to you, the old man will be dragging his feet if he stays here, haha......." ”
