Usma's face showed embarrassment, and he nodded: "I understand, I understand, it's just that the patriarch, you didn't tell us about such a big thing before..."

"Why, I said, do you want the people to know that there will be a strong enemy in the coming year? Not to mention that everyone had just experienced the war at that time, and it was not easy to settle down. Now I tell you, it's because most of the tribe's work is on the right track, and we're ready to prepare. Now, all that's left is bows and arrows, and weapons. ”

Ji thief said.

Usma looked back at the entrance: "That patriarch, you said to build a fortress..."

"Yes, I plan to use this fortress as the first front line to resist the enemy, Usma, you should know that it will take eight months for our bows and arrows to be made, but the Aomine tribe will go south in half a year. This difference of two months must be won for it, otherwise, it will be difficult to fight against the Qingfeng tribe without bows and arrows. Ji Thief said seriously.

Usma hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Patriarch, will you tell everyone about this?"

Ji Thief thought for a while: "Probably not for the time being, I have to find a suitable opportunity, you two also have to remember, don't tell anyone else the news of the Qingfeng tribe going south, when necessary, I will say." ”

Usma and Achi glanced at each other, and then they both nodded their heads: "Don't worry, Patriarch, we will never say it." ”

When these words came out, the two of them couldn't help but feel a stormy wave rolling in their hearts.

They were almost the same thing.

Half a year later, there were thousands of enemies coming, what is this called, how long has it been stable, and then the war has started again?

Seeing the sadness on the faces of the two, Ji Thief patted the two of them on the shoulder with a smile and said, "You don't need to worry like this, think about the good side of everything." For example, we know that the Qingfeng tribe is going south, which is better than not knowing. ”

Both of them looked at the thief suspiciously, not understanding why the thief would say this.

"You think, we know that the enemy is coming, so can't we prepare in advance? It's better than if we don't know anything, and then the enemy will come, and then we won't even be prepared, and it's like waiting to die. The thief spread his hands and smiled.

Looking at the light smile on Ji Thief's face, the two of them glanced at each other, and couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, as if this is the truth.

Just like Ji Thief said, it's better to be prepared than to be unaware.

One is to give you the opportunity to struggle, and the other is to give you no chance to struggle.

But any individual will choose normally.

"We understand the patriarch!"

Ji Thief nodded, and hummed: "It's good to understand, let's go, remember it, don't tell everyone to understand? At least, I don't want everyone to know the news and become emotionally discouraged, unable to fight spirits, and waste our plans until the enemy is coming. ”

Usma and Achi were not stupid, and both nodded and said, "Well, I understand, we will never talk to others." ”

"Ayin can't say either. The thief said to Usma.

"I know the patriarch, my mouth is tight. ”

"Huh. ”

"What are we going to do now, Patriarch, are we going back?" asked Achi.

Ji Thief nodded: "I've been out for so many days, and I have to go back." ”

While nodding, the five of them walked towards the Lihuo tribe, and on the way, Usma suddenly asked Ji Thief: "Patriarch, I have another question." ”

"You say. ”

"Even if the people ask us what we are building a fortress for, how will I answer?" said Usma.

Ji Thief paused for a moment, and said in his heart how he had forgotten this.

If the answer he gave was unreasonable, then the people would definitely be suspicious.

At that time, whether it is the news that Qingfeng is going south, or the news that Qingfeng is going south, it will give the clansmen the illusion that they built the fortress in advance just to guard against them, and they dare not tell everyone.

It's easy to demoralize your own people.

Not to mention anything else, in the minds of the clansmen, they will think that they are already afraid of the Qingfeng tribe before they fight, and they want to build a fortress to save their lives, not to mention the clansmen below.

I was careless, why did I forget this.

Stamping his feet in some annoyance, the thief sighed in his heart, how could he ignore this big problem?

"Patriarch?" After a long time of not seeing the thief respond, Usma shouted softly.

It took a long time for the thief to come back to his senses and respond: "Ah, here, I'm here." ”

Usma asked, "How do we explain it to the people?"

Ji Thief stopped, pinched his chin and thought for a long time: "Don't worry about it for now, you go back and bring the clansmen from the Engineering Department to prepare to make a fortress, and the clansmen will have a way to explain it and ensure that there is no problem." ”

Seeing that the thief said this, Usma breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a relaxed look: "This is the best, the best." ”

It's also strange to say, I don't know when the thief has become an omnipotent existence in the hearts of all clansmen.

Although the thief usually doesn't care about anything, this does not affect the fact that when encountering a major event, all the clansmen will unconditionally believe in him, believing that the thief can settle the difficulties and lead everyone to the right path.

This situation is most obvious among the heads of the fourteen departments.

This may be the reason why the thief has always brought miracles to everyone in the past.

Every time, the thief can make the impossible possible, at the beginning, the clan will remain suspicious of the thief, but as time goes by, the thief can surprise the clansmen every time, and over time, everyone believes in him unconditionally.

Nothing else, everyone has seen with their own eyes the thief's ability to turn decay into magic, can they still believe him?

You can interpret this situation as a prestige that the thief has cultivated for a long time.

The kind of thief who said that there was a way to pluck the sun, everyone knew that it was impossible, but they still believed in the prestige of the thief.

The patriarch is sympathetic and caring for the clansmen, and the clansmen believe in supporting, loving and respecting the patriarch.

This kind of atmosphere, you just search the entire primitive society, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a second home.

With this kind of atmosphere, how can the Lihuo tribe, which is united in one heart, not be able to defeat the Qingfeng tribe?

When he returned to the Lihuo tribe, the thief was immediately surrounded by the people in charge.

Everyone is chattering and saying everything, although it is noisy, but it can be seen that everyone's dependence on the thief has not decreased with the intentional cultivation of the thief, on the contrary, this feeling is deeper.

Among the many words, Xue's words made Ji Thief very concerned.

"Shamu is looking for a warrior, you have been looking for a warrior for several days, and you basically come every day, saying that you have to do work. ”

Ji Thief was slightly surprised, and said in his heart how he forgot about this stubble, at first, he thought that he would leave for a few days, and he would put down the matter of the White Bone Wasteland, but his own negligence, the White Bone Wasteland had seven hundred mouths, and there was no food in exchange for work, and they had to starve to death.

Patting his head, Ji Thief complained to himself: "It's really confused, now, the work that was finally carried out in the White Bone Wasteland is over." ”

All the people in charge didn't understand, and they all looked at the thief with puzzled eyes.

"Girl, what did you tell Shamu?"

Xue Dao: "I don't see any work for them in the tribe, but if they don't live, they will all starve, in this case, the warrior you said before that you would hire them to work for us will be nullified." Therefore, I took it upon myself to find some work for them, but this work was also taken out of the hands of our own people, and I could barely hire them from starving, and no matter how much I wanted, I couldn't provide it. ”

The words of the snow made the thief breathe a sigh of relief, okay, okay.

"It's a great girl, if it weren't for you this time, so much hard work before would have been in vain. While the thief was relaxed, he did not hesitate to praise the words in his mouth.

Although Xue is not as shy as before, in front of so many people in charge, Ji Thief praised her so much, which still made her a little overwhelmed, and she lowered her head at the time and said a little shyly: "No, no." ”
