Chapter 127: The Trampled Bread Tree
The Hobbit Halfling suffered an unprecedented disaster.
On this day, the hobbit halfling, the village guard, ran to the chapitt's hut just after dawn, looking nervous, their foreheads were covered with sweat, and they banged fiercely on the door of the shabit patriarch.
"Patriarch! We're done! Big things are wrong! β
The sleepy-eyed Shabit opened the door of the hut and was startled by the panicked captain of the guard, who almost fainted when the captain told him of the horrible event, but he was fortunate to hold on to the wall.
"No, I can't just go down! Quick, show me it! β
The news had spread throughout the halfling village, and even the halflings, women, children, and the elderly had all come out, huddled in a heap and ran in a panic.
The hobbit halflings stormed into the bread tree garden they had cultivated, and they were all stunned.
In the garden, there were potholes everywhere, there were several huge footprints on the ground, almost all the bread trees were broken and broken, and a few bread trees that did not fall were also scarred, the branches were covered with frost, and even an irrigation well dug next to it was trampled down.
The ground is full of ripe, or half-green fruits!
"The god of agriculture and animal husbandry is above!"
The hobbit halflings almost collapsed, their steady, swaying and holding each other weakly, the women began to cry, and the old halflings sat directly on the ground and wept bitterly.
"What have we done to be punished like this!?"
The Shabit patriarch's heart was so twisted that he almost despaired, their most important food was this bread tree!
"Merciful god of animal husbandry! Are you going to abandon us? What the hell is going on! The old halfling tugged at his goatee, the beard that they used to be proud of, now a place for them to vent.
The troll Britz also ran over, looking at the desperate halfling, he felt a little guilty, after all, he was the guardian of the halfling, and even the bread tree was destroyed, partly because of his dereliction of duty. Another major reason. It was he who might be driven out of the halfling village, because they couldn't even feed themselves.
Or, even if the hobbit halfling begged the forest troll to stay, he wouldn't want to stay in this village where there was not enough to eat.
"That's the footprints of a dragon!" Britz was still relatively calm, pointing to the big hole in the garden.
Patriarch Shabit held back his tears. said: "Could it be the black dragon on the Haagen-Dazs Snow Mountain?" β
"Yesterday we heard the roar of the dragon. It's it! It has to be it! It has ruined our bread tree garden! The hobbit halfling was rambling about this, and the crowd was furious.
The hobbit halflings are in a state of wailing and despair, and they are in pain and comforting each other. Even if they knew who the murderer was, they couldn't afford to trouble a dragon.
Their guess was correct, the Frost Dragon, who escaped from the temple, chased down the Sypha with the Ice Clan along the way, and their fight destroyed the Bread Tree Garden.
"Put away the fruits that are still edible, and carry back the green fruits that are not ripe, and they will still be edible when the time comes."
Shabit is the patriarch, and he has to carry the burden and not let his people perish. He commanded his people to pick up the bread tree fruit from the ground, and wept as he burst into tears. The bread tree is the hobbit halfling's most important source of food and staple food, and they are all nervous, perhaps this winter, many crippled elderly halflings will be driven out of the village. Because there is not enough food.
In this case, the hobbit halfling certainly had no intention of receiving any guests.
When Shay returned to the Hobbit Halfling tribe, he was also surprised to see the sight, and the halflings were all like dead ashes, and they inquired for a long time. Only then did I learn the cause and effect.
She had come to take away the goblins from the halfling village, and she didn't take them with her when she went to the HΓ€agen-Dazs Mountains, because they were a burden.
"I'm sorry, but your simplicity is not the original sin, and the god of animal husbandry will always be kind to every people, that's for sure." Xia Yi comforted the old patriarch, "Even if a vile dragon destroys your precious bread tree, and the sky has not yet fallen, have you all forgotten the ancient maxim of the halfling?" There will always be bread, and so will milk! β
The Shabit patriarch was stunned for a moment, did the halfling ever have such an aphorism? Still, he was grateful for Shay's comfort.
"Thank you, Miss Charity, you are a kind person." The halfling patriarch said with tears in his eyes.
"Hehe......"
While expressing his regret, Xia Yi began to play with ghost ideas.
She has many warriors, especially the skeletons of the Forsaken Lands, who are simply cheap labor, unpaid coolies, but she lacks food and cooks!
At least Shay can't cook, Zombie King? He can not think about humans...... Mondo, no, the Shadow Cats, and even more, they may hunt, but they can't cook, and they lack some staple food.
Well, the hobbit halfling fits just these conditions! They are all natural cooks and foodies! Xia Yi has no doubts about the level of halfling's cooking, their wine is fragrant and mellow, the dishes have their own characteristics, and even the staple bread tree fruit has cultivated many varieties!
Xia Yi tried his eyes at Mondo, and Mondo, who received the soul transmission, glanced at Xia Yi in embarrassment, can it be done? Xia Yi smiled sinisterly: "Of course! β
"In my territory, there are the best crops such as wheat, and the god of animal husbandry will not allow me to ignore the halflings as they are harmed! Get out of here with me! I can give you the best life and shelter, and you don't have to endure the destruction and harassment of the dragons anymore! β
Xia Yi said righteously, her proposal surprised the hobbit halflings, and there was a lot of discussion.
Xia Yi was a little weak-hearted, she hadn't even managed the territory in the Savage Lands.
Patriarch Shabit hesitated for a moment and decisively refused: "Thank you merciful hostess, however, the halfling will never leave his homeland, this is our perseverance, we still have some bread tree seeds, although it takes four or five years to cultivate, we must endure a long period of hunger, but we will not abandon our village." β
Looking at the determined halfling, Xia Yi forgot this, the hobbit halfling, like the hobbit, is as stubborn as the gray dwarf about the matter of hometown.
It seems that if you don't come a little ruthlessly, you won't go with me!
"Do you want me to watch the good halfling disappear in the wind without the bread tree that must be eaten? Could it be that the lovely village has been bullied and destroyed by the dragon's reptile again? Xia Yi said almost with a growl. I can't! β
Her eyes flashed with crystal sincere hot water, and the muscles on her face were a little distorted. If Camuras knew that the road was thousands of miles away, this woman would still be ruining its reputation. Will definitely vomit three liters of blood.
The hobbit halfling began to sigh. Who said that the outside world is all some cunning and cruel humans, this Miss Xia Yi is simply a messenger sent by the god of animal husbandry! They fainted in despair at the thought that dragons would destroy their crops in the future.
The tactics of intimidation worked. Xia Yi smiled sinisterly in his heart, adding some more chips.
Mondo walked out, his voice was not loud, but the halflings present could hear it: "Xia Yi, you know that although our food is varied, the quantity is not enough, and we can't support so many halflings, not to mention." They love their hometown too much, they don't want to leave their homeland, and they don't want to make things difficult for others. β
The hobbit halfling suddenly tensed, and they began to worry.
Mondo continued to sing with a white face: "What's more, our economic income is not very stable, a hobbit halfling village. It will cost us the usual financial expenses! β
The halflings were completely devastated, they were very nervous, they didn't know what to do, and they were suddenly afraid that Xia Yi would abandon them.
Xia Yi had a look of holiness that only the compassionate Illuminati god had to have, and said sincerely: "The financial revenue is compared to saving an endangered race. I'd rather choose the latter! β
As soon as these words came out, the old patriarch Shabit felt that if he didn't go, he would simply insult the sentiments of this noble hostess.
Patriarch Shabit asked weakly, "You have many varieties of crops?" I mean, we hobbit halflings don't eat much, we still have some food in our own existence, we don't cause you a lot of trouble, and we don't need to buy any human goods, we don't need to use a lot of money, as long as we provide some world, we can grow our own food, and we are happy to cook for you, hobbit halflings are not useless......"
"Of course, we don't have much food, but we have enough for you to make some good wine." Xia Yi suddenly thought that a magic core appeared in his hand and said, "Look at this." β
Patriarch Shabit clutched his chest and said, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of this...... This is the core of the incense worm! Oh my God, it's the raw material for making the most delicious wine! β
Incense worm is the name of the two-headed worm in the mouth of the halfling, and with their strength, they can't hunt its magic core at all, and this temptation completely breaks the halfling's insistence. The village can be rebuilt, but when it's gone, there's nothing!
"How can we repay you for your kindness? Hostess? Patriarch Shabit bowed.
Xia Yi's face turned cold, and he said solemnly: "Do you need to be paid for giving help to the head of state who needs help?" β
What a great man! Halflings were thinking in their hearts that Xia Yi's image instantly became tall and plump in their hearts, considerate and kind, and there were so many warriors to follow! They don't have to worry about the safety of the village anymore!
As a result, Xia Yi's team has an extra team of mighty hobbit halflings.
They returned to the village to sort out their possessions, in fact, their possessions were nothing more than some clothing and stored food and wine, the halfling village was very poor, they hardly traded with the outside world, and gold was certainly not a valuable item.
Xia Yi walked at the front of the team, full of spirit: "Blindly begging doesn't work, it's different if someone disagrees, this is a rebellious mentality, Mondo, your performance is great!" β
Mondo felt a little guilty, and he did something deceitful and said, "Grandpa Sal said that an orc who lies is not a good orc. β
Xia Yi grinned and said, "I'm not an orc, I'm a skeleton, ahhh......h
"Your show can go to the circus!" Mondo said helplessly.
