Zhao Tong saw that these natives were still a little sensible, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and was about to praise a few words, when the old wizard's body was crooked and he fell headlong.

"Wizard!" The young man yelled in grief.

Zhao Tong frowned, walked over, put his finger in front of the old wizard's nose, and felt his pulse, knowing that the old man was dead.

Looking at the young man, he shook his head and said, "He died, he made the right decision before he died, I hope you don't lead your people to the abyss of death." ”

The young man ignored Zhao Tong's words, his eyes were red and he looked at the gradually cold corpse on the ground, the old wizard was like his father in his eyes, he used to be as tall as a mountain, but at this time he was just a stiff corpse on the ground.

Unwillingness, resentment, and anger almost made him lose his mind.

But the old wizard's dying words echoed in his ears like alarm bells.

"Don't take revenge, take your people to live, and continue the blood of the De'ang people."

The young and enthusiastic head is dripping blood, these outsiders have killed so many clansmen, how can this hatred be easily put down, but the old wizard's request before his death always reminds him that the continuation of the clan is more important than his own hatred.

Zhao Tong looked at the young man kneeling beside the old man, and did not bother him, he could see that the two had an extraordinary relationship, and he guessed that maybe the old man was the young man's father.

After a long time, the young man slowly straightened up, his eyes were very calm, Zhao Tong saw a trace of sadness and anger in his eyes, calm as if he looked down on life and death.

"It's a character!" Zhao Tong thought secretly.

"I'll help you bury him, and I won't let people humiliate his body." Zhao Tong said slowly.

The young man didn't know if he understood, but after Zhao Tong finished speaking, he nodded slightly.

"Someone!" Zhao Tong shouted.

When the sailor on duty outside the camp heard this, he walked in and said, "First mate, what are your orders?" ”

"Take him down and tell a few men to bury this old man! Try to do something decent! Zhao Tong commanded.

The sailor glanced at the motionless corpses on the ground, nodded, and went out to call for someone to clean up the place.

The young man was taken back to the captive camp, and when the De'ang saw that the old wizard had not returned, he hurriedly asked, "What about the wizard?" ”

"He's dead!" The young man said in a flat tone, as if he was talking about a small matter that had nothing to do with him.

The news of the old wizard's death soon came, and the people of De'ang were so grieved by the old wizard's death that anyone in the camp could see their grief.

But the sailors really didn't care about it, they were still reminiscing about the taste of those women, and after drifting at sea for so long, the crazy venting made them cool to the bone.

Soon, the captives ushered in a new life, and they escaped the fate of extermination under Zhao Tong's intercession, but they will have a new identity in the future, that is, slaves.

Although the Xia Kingdom does not allow the existence of human slaves, but the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, Wei Ming is the biggest commander, for him, not to kill all these people, it is already extraordinarily gracious, and wanting to become a free citizen is simply a dream.

The women of De'ang were organized by the sailors and were responsible for the food of all, while the men, with shackles and whips, were driven to cut down trees and carry stones.

After deliberation, the expedition team decided to establish a supply point here, they would have to leave sooner or later, no matter how big this island was, it was just an island, and their ultimate goal was the continent in the east.

And after seeing the strength of the outsiders and the tragic situation of the De'ang people, the Dadahar people became extremely attentive to the challenge team of the Xia Kingdom.

The Red Fox explained that the people tried their best to participate in the affairs of these outsiders, and it can be said that the sailors experienced a feeling in the Dadahar people that they could not experience in the Xia Kingdom, and the feeling of being a human being and being served made them feel fluttering.

The outsiders had effortlessly subdued the two largest tribes on the island, and the news spread through the land as fast as it could.

The small tribes around them did not believe it at first, but later heard about their own people and saw their tribes with their own eyes, and this matter was gradually confirmed to be true.

After the initial fear, these small tribes immediately prayed for the protection of the expedition with the best gifts in the tribe for the sake of Mingzhe's life.

After a month, Wei Ming received no one more than the leaders of the large and small tribes.

Most of these small tribes have one or two hundred people, and there are only more than twenty people, but there are many of them, and he estimates in his heart that there are almost tens of thousands of human beings living on this land, which is greatly beyond his expectations.

The population density of this small island can be said to be higher than that of the Xia Kingdom, and it is hard to imagine how these people have developed to the current scale on this isolated island.

Now that it is late autumn, the weather is gradually getting colder, and the leaves in the mountains and forests have turned yellow, and the fallen leaves have fallen on the ground and spread a thick layer.

With the arrival of autumn, most of the wild beasts in the forest have been hidden, and the De'ang people, who are covered in thin animal skins, wield stone axes in the cold autumn wind and cut down the big trees with difficulty.

The Dadahars won the trust of the Xia people because of their performance, and the warriors of their tribe were selected to become overseers of slaves.

Although the overseers of the Xia people cannot be fed and clothed like the real Xia people, compared to these slaves, their lives are simply like being in heaven.

The young man stopped swinging his axe, looked at the overseers who were laughing with leather whips, the hatred in his eyes flashed, he lowered his head and sighed into his hands, quietly relieved his somewhat frozen and stiff hands, and continued to swing the axe towards the trees.

The slaves pushed down the trees from the bottom of the mountain, and the slaves below threw the trees into the river and let them float downstream along the river.

At the mouth of the river, there was already a busy construction site, a stronghold that had begun to take shape rose in the blood and sweat of the slaves, and this land, which had been barren for an unknown period of time, had the footprints of human civilization for the first time.

The red fox looked at the magnificent building in his eyes, and once again felt the power of these outsiders.

This kind of strength is not only by force, but something that she can't say, everything unknown deeply attracts her, in the process of contacting the Xia people, she is trying to learn their language, but the time is too short, she can only speak a few very simple words.

The expedition team is going to set off again, after this stronghold is built, Wei Ming plans to leave here, but he is very uneasy about these wild people, he and the leaders of the expedition decided to leave a team of more than 20 people here when he leaves.

Everyone knew that it was dangerous to leave such a small number of men, but they were also worried that after they left, these wild people would have some bad intentions to ruin their hard work here.

A few days later, Wei Ming issued an order to the savages of this land, and summoned the big and small leaders.

At the meeting, Wei Ming stated his future plans, and he warned the natives that if they came back again, if they found that the Xia people had damaged a hair, they would suffer the thunderous wrath of the Xia Kingdom, and there would not be a living person in this land.

This warning frightened the natives, they knew the strength of these outsiders very well, and they would not doubt the possibility of this matter at all.

Not to mention the mysterious Xia Kingdom, even these outsiders in front of them can kill all the tribes in this land.

But Wei Ming didn't just threaten them, he didn't forget to give some benefits while threatening, Wei Ming assured them that as long as they were loyal to the Xia Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom would bring them great rewards in the future.

And in their eyes, this reward is the food that they will never eat in a lifetime, and even the beautiful clothes worn by these outsiders.

Under the strategy of both soft and hard, these natives became more and more cooperative, and Wei Ming was very satisfied with this result, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved after he left.

As for the question of who stayed, it was easy to solve, and no one would agree to order others to be on this desolate island, and it was okay for sailors to occasionally act as a bully here, if they were allowed to live for a long time on this island where there was nothing, it would be tantamount to exile for them who were accustomed to the prosperity of the Xia Kingdom.

In order to solve this problem, Wei Ming planned to use the method of drawing lots and hand over this problem to the gods to solve.

After calling all the sailors back and announcing this matter, the sailors were silent, no one wanted to stay here, seeing that the voyage would end in the last year, as long as they returned to the Xia Kingdom alive, the money rewarded by the imperial court was enough for them to spend the rest of their lives comfortably in Yancheng, no matter how good the savage women were, they could not compare to those slightly cleaner little ladies in the Xia Kingdom.

But this matter had to be carried out, and Wei Ming finally promised them that those who stayed, he would ask the court for instructions and win more benefits for them.

Finally, with the reluctance of the sailors, the drawing of lots began.

Those who drew the short lot were overjoyed, and those who unfortunately drew the long lot suddenly sat on the ground as if the sky had fallen.

This includes He Tie's friend Monkey.

Looking at the pale face of the monkey, He Tie was also very sorry for him, and walked over to comfort him: "Monkey, if you want to open a little, you will be here for two or three years at most, and when the time comes, you can return to the Xia Kingdom and take the reward, you can eat whatever you want, and wear whatever you want." ”

When the monkey heard this, he glared angrily and scolded: "He Heizi, you damn it, don't talk about these useless things, stay here, watch these every day, can you smoke the wild people who kill people, you see there is nothing here, there is no wine, two or three years, how can this fucking make people live." ”

He Tie shook his head and said, "If I don't have a wife and son, I will stay, I'm sorry brother." ”

The monkey hung his head and smiled bitterly: "Hey, this dog's life is fate, don't worry about me." ”

Twenty unlucky ones were chosen, and looking at these twenty bitter-faced companions, the sailors were very happy in their hearts.

No matter how much money is rewarded for this kind of thing, they are not interested, who knows what will happen in the past two or three years, Xia Guojin has changed every year this year, they have been out for so long, and when they return to Xia Guo, they may not be able to recognize it, let alone be a wild man for two or three years.

A month later, after the first light snowfall of winter, the expedition ship restocked itself and left the island for further east.

The monkey stood on the seashore and watched the ships gradually moving away, and a sense of sadness rose in his heart, although there were still many humans here, but for some reason he felt extremely lonely.

The western mountain range of the Shenzhou continent.

When Zhou Yu's team temporarily set up camp here, more than a dozen people spent a month exploring within a radius of about ten miles.

But they didn't find any ore that looked like metal, except for some strange animals and some unknown plants, much to their dismay.

During this period, those wild men did not come to disturb them, but Zhou Yu felt that those wild men must be secretly watching them nearby.

Although he didn't see those wild people, Zhou Yu's feeling was very strong.

For these unknown savages, the expedition team did not dare to take it lightly, and the captain asked the team members to prohibit one person from moving, even if they went to, two people had to go together.

After a month of peaceful exploration, the expedition decided to head deeper into the mountains, where they might be able to find something.

The night before the evacuation, the wild men, who had not been seen for a long time, reappeared near the camp.

This accident immediately made everyone nervous.

"Who?" The captain shouted into the dark jungle.

But nothing could be heard except the sound that echoed through the valley.

Just when the crowd thought that the wild men had already left, as before.

There was the sound of salsa's footsteps in the dark jungle.

Zhou Yu looked at the others, and when he saw the others, he was also nervous.

"Be careful, everyone, we have some training, don't be afraid!" The captain's hard work boosts morale.

In the beating firelight, figures came out of the darkness and surrounded the small camp of the expedition team.

These people just looked at the expedition members, did not speak, and did not attack, so that everyone was a little confused and did not know what these wild people were thinking.

"Who are you?"

As the captain, he had to find out at this time, and if he showed cowardice, it would be a great blow to morale.

But these people still didn't speak, just looked at them, this strange atmosphere made Zhou Yu's hairs stand up, and his forehead was already covered with cold sweat.
