Chapter 46: Closing the Heart
After arranging everyone's tasks, Lin Xuan and Wu Anguo went to the place where everyone from the Chiyan tribe was imprisoned.
According to Lin Xuan's previous instructions, the men and the old and weak women and children were separated from each other.
Lin Xuan first came to the cell where the men were held, this cell was about two zhang square, the walls were all made of rough stones, the ground was also paved with stones, the pillars of the doors and windows were all arm-thick cast iron bars, the corners were full of spider webs, each cell was closely guarded by about ten people, these cells were all in place before the Chiyan tribe, and it could be regarded as solving the problem of Lin Xuan's placement of this group of prisoners who still had the ability to resist.
Seeing someone coming in, the captives couldn't help but turn their heads, and when they saw that it was Lin Xuan and Wu Anguo walking in, some people looked numbly and lowered their heads, and some people flashed a trace of anger and hatred in their eyes, but they immediately lowered their heads for fear of being discovered, and some people looked at Lin Xuan blankly, as if they were stupid. The whole cell exuded an air of decay.
Lin Xuan took in their reactions, had a general understanding of the situation, and saw that there were no injuries caused by abuse on their bodies, and nodded secretly.
Coming to them, Lin Xuan opened his mouth and said:
"Now, the entire Chiyan tribe has been taken by us, your former tribe is gone, and your home no longer exists,"
Hearing Lin Xuan speak, the confused eyes of all the captives suddenly became fierce, staring at Lin Xuan angrily, looking at their posture and eager to devour Lin Xuan alive, someone stared at the bloodshot eyes and scolded:
"Dog things!! the hatred of the extermination!! as long as Lao Tzu does not die, sooner or later, one day he will slaughter your group of pigs and dogs, which are not as good as the !!"
"If you have a kind, kill Lao Tzu!! otherwise you will wash your neck and wait!!"
It seems that they have thought of something, all the captives keep pounding the cell, the cell door is banging, they are scolding, the guards are extremely nervous looking at the crazy captives, and they can't help but have an opinion about their new patriarch, is it just to stimulate this group of captives to find superiority, what if they rush out of the cell, looking at the shaking prison door, they feel that their worries are very likely.
Wu Anguo was behind Lin Xuan, seeing this group of prisoners under the stairs who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, all kinds of foul words blurted out, a wave of anger rushed straight to the brain, strode out, came to the prison door in a few steps, and clenched the big fist of the sandbag and planned to give this group of guys a painful lesson, with Wu Anguo's strength, this fist hit them almost certain death, I have to say that the image of Wu Anguo's previous battle left a deep shadow on them, and when they saw Wu Anguo coming, they hurriedly squeezed back, but the people behind him pushed him forward again, seeing that Wu Anguo's angry blow was about to hit them, they couldn't help despairingγ
But just when Wu Anguo was about to punch, a force stopped him, and when he looked back, he saw Lin Xuan grabbing his arm with one hand, shaking his head to himself, feeling the power from his arm, Wu Anguo couldn't help but be shocked, Lin Xuan's physical strength was already so strong, obviously it was on par with himself before, Wu Anguo was originally a martial idiot, and now he felt the pressure from Lin Xuan, and immediately made up his mind to cultivate hard, and he didn't care about those foul words at all, and put down his raised fist.
Lin Xuan naturally didn't know what Wu Anguo was thinking, seeing Wu Anguo put down his fist, Lin Xuan was also relieved, he was afraid that Wu Anguo would be stunned by anger, and he would be dumbfounded at that time.
Looking at the restless cell, Lin Xuan raised his anger and said loudly:
"Most of your relatives have not been harmed, and I have sent for them to be protected and ordered not to be harassed. I think a lot of you have family members in there. β
Hearing this, the crowd was originally furious, and everyone who wanted to die with Lin Xuan stayed in place all of a sudden, they heard it before, Lin Xuan said that their home was gone, and subconsciously thought that their relatives had been killed, which immediately aroused their anger, and many people were secretly hating why they wanted to surrender, it was better to fight to the death to protect their families, and then they suddenly remembered that they surrendered because this group of invaders said that surrendering could save their families.
Between tribes and families, most of them chose their families, after all, this world is the weak and strong, and it is common for tribes to annex and annihilate.
Seeing the calm people, Lin Xuan couldn't help but be happy, the reason why he wanted to say that before was to see which of these people attached more importance to their tribe or relatives, as far as the current situation was concerned, he could completely control them through their relatives.
Lin Xuan then said:
"It's not too early, I've got food for you. After saying that, he ordered his men to bring in the food they had brought, and when they saw the food, the stomachs of the people who had not eaten for a day rang.
The food of hundreds of people was quickly put away, and in the midst of a gobbling situation, one person was out of place, his eyes closed despite his stomach growling, and he did not look at the food in front of him.
Lin Xuan quickly noticed him, feeling as if he had seen this person, thinking about it carefully, Lin Xuan remembered that this person was stationed at the gate before, and at that time he planned to kill the leader of the archery as soon as possible, this person brought someone over to stop him, and was whipped away by his own gun, and was injured and captured.
A few people around the man saw Lin Xuan paying attention, and hurriedly reminded:
"Brother Yan, now is not the time to be righteous"
"Yes, maybe my sister-in-law and nephew are still in their hands, and you can't be impulsive for their sake. β
"I know that Leader Chu is kind to you, but if you come forward now, you will only die in vain, so it is better to pretend to be obedient and wait for the opportunity. β
Hearing this, Zhang Yan opened her eyes, glanced at Lin Xuan, frowned, and ate the food in front of her.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan didn't pay much attention to him.
"Although you are captives, I will not abuse you, but I will not feed you in vain, this time the battle tribe has suffered a lot of damage, from tomorrow, you will go with me to repair. In the future, the amount of your ration will depend on how much work you can do. β
"Oh, by the way, tomorrow I will send someone to check how many of your families have been taken prisoner, and their food is based on how much you can do, and those who fish in troubled waters are waiting to starve to death. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were on Lin Xuan, and their hearts were raised, what they were most worried about now was their families.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan gave them another hope:
"Now, in the presence of all of you, I promise that if you behave well, I will reunite his family, and at the same time spare him as a prisoner, and he will be my people from now on. β
All of a sudden, the hearts of the captives were excited, if it weren't for the fact that they were in a cell now, they couldn't wait to cheer loudly, today can be said to have given them a huge surprise, and the originally confused future suddenly had hope.
"Everyone, the Chiyan Tribe no longer exists, but the lives of the living have to go on, don't they?"
Lin Xuan saw that his expectations for today had been achieved, and he planned to leave, leaving behind a group of contemplative captives.
Wu Anguo followed behind Lin Xuan, and he couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart, just a few words tore through the psychological defense line of this group of captives, although he didn't show it, the hope flashing in their eyes couldn't deceive people. It won't take much time for them to integrate into the tribe.
In the cell, Zhang Yan felt that everyone's mental outlook was completely different from before, and he felt bitter in his heart, according to this form, it won't be long before the Chiyan tribe really perished, but he couldn't recover it, this young patriarch's methods were too terrible.
Dozens of guards were now admiring the young patriarch of their own family, and they couldn't help but be ashamed when they remembered that they had complained before, and at the same time they were full of hope for the future of this nascent tribe.
Lin Xuan saw that Wu Anguo was tired for a day, so he asked him to go back early to rest, and he came to the place where the women and children were detained, and after everyone had a full meal, Lin Xuan assured everyone that he would not hurt them, and gave them hope for the future as before, and left again, before leaving, he emphasized to the guards again that it was forbidden for anyone to harass them, and once there was a situation, it would be reported immediately, so Lin Xuan couldn't help but care, his side was basically men, and he was afraid that someone would have nowhere to vent his energy and ruin his plan.
After solving the matter of the captives, it was late at night before he knew it, Lin Xuan planned to go back to his room, he still had a lot of things to ask Bai Zhengyu, on the way back, he accidentally saw Wu Anguo practicing martial arts alone, Lin Xuan sighed that Wu Anguo was diligent At the same time, he also found that he had not cultivated steadily for a long time, thinking of this, Lin Xuan shook his head, he is now the patriarch, a bunch of trivial things, if you want to cultivate steadily, you have to wait for the tribe to settle down first.
ββββββββββββ
In the woods not far from the Ganghu tribe, several people dressed in black with their faces covered were bending over and walking carefully in the direction of the Ganghu tribe, and soon they came to a hillside overlooking the entire tribe.
Looking down, the whole tribe did not look heavily guarded, judging by the number of torches, with only a hundred people patrolling;
It's not that he didn't take Lin Xuan's order to stay vigilant seriously, but that there are not enough people under him, and there are shifts, so it's already very good to be able to divide more than a hundred people to patrol at a time.
Looking at the tribe below, which was not very well guarded, the leader seemed to be considering whether to risk going to the tribe to reconnoitre.
Just when he made up his mind to sneak into the tribe to find out, he found that no one responded to his orders, and what he saw when he looked back made him break out in a cold sweat.
I saw Lin Ying standing behind him, his squinted eyes full of killing intent, and his subordinates were lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead. What's even more terrifying is that the man was so close to him that he didn't notice it, but Lin Ying didn't give him time to react, Lin Ying knocked him unconscious with a knife, and after a while, Lin Ying's men looked at him in awe, and skillfully tied up several people on the ground.
Lin Ying looked coldly at the dark woods
"It's already the third team!"
