Chapter 33: A Shameful Betrayal

"But what my father didn't expect was that those who ran away were not grateful for the benefits the tribe had given them. On the contrary www.biquge.info when they returned to their respective tribes, they actually united with each other, and several tribes secretly discussed, planning to come back and attack us, these unfed white-eyed wolves thought that after destroying our tribe, they could get a lot of slaves, as well as all the property of the tribe. ”

"When these people lived in the tribe, they figured out the reality of the tribe. When they returned with their own people, the tribe was not at all guarded. On that occasion, almost half of the tribe was killed or captured. And that includes your grandma. ”

"This incident has been a very big blow to Dawu. He began to wonder if he was on the right path. He couldn't figure out why what he did was unacceptable to these people wherever he went, and why good people were always hurt by bad people. The Great Witch was depressed, and he even planned to take all the people back, return to the cannibalistic alliance, and let his dreams die in reality. ”

"At this time, your grandfather stood up, and he did not persuade the fat witch. After leaving enough food behind, he quietly left with all the warriors of his tribe. A month later, he returned with the captured population. Although only a small part. ”

"Your grandfather told the Great Witch that the tribes that hurt us have been eradicated by him. He rescued all the people in the tribe who were captured as long as they were alive and could find them. He also said that he was desperate to work hard with him because he shared the same belief with the Great Witch, and although he was now suffering a temporary setback, he still believed that their ideal world must be feasible and not far away. ”

"The Great Witch has cheered up with the help of your grandfather, and they have learned the lesson of this time, and this time, they have set four rules for the tribe that everyone must follow."

"Article 1 of the Clan Rules: All the people of the tribe are equal, and no one shall be above any other tribe for any reason. Everyone looks to each other and helps each other, and never gives up on everyone. ”

"Article 2: Anyone in the tribe, no matter where he comes from or what tribe, as long as he joins the tribe, is a common clan."

"The third and most important one for you: no one who has contributed to the tribe can be counted as a member of the tribe, including the children of the tribe."

The detailed explanation is that after the slaves have lived in the tribe for a certain period of time and have contributed to the tribe, it is up to everyone to collectively decide whether to recognize him as a member of the tribe. This is premised on the fact that the slaves must know the roots, and only those who have no roots. Slaves with their own tribes and beliefs are not without such opportunities, and they need to decide whether or not to be recruited as members of the tribe through long, long observation in the supervision of the clan, and such people can only be counted as private slaves of the family. ”

"The children of the tribe are raised by the tribe, and after they have passed the rite of passage, they must go out on at least one trip. Once they have seen the outside world, let them decide for themselves whether or not to stay in the tribe. Until then, they were treated the same as ordinary slaves. ”

"The fourth rule is the simplest: those who harm the tribe and their people, die."

Hearing this, Tang Ge finally interjected: "So, there is no pottery to use in the tribe, and we don't even give salt to the children, because our treatment is equivalent to that of slaves?" ”

The Fat Witch shook his head and said, "That's not the case. There are no parents in this world who don't love their children, so the children in the tribe have always been treated the same as their own parents, and even under the care of their parents, they live better than the adults in the family. The rules set for children are actually very redundant. Later, there was a catastrophe in the tribe, and the tribe would be what it is now. ”

Tang Ge handed the fried beast's meat steak to the fat witch and asked, "What kind of disaster?" β€œ

Fat Wu said: "This matter is also very complicated. At that time, our tribe already had more than 400 people, which was the largest and strongest tribe in the vicinity. The Great Witch has been trying his best to maintain a good relationship with the surrounding tribes, and the surrounding tribes have not failed to live up to the good intentions of the Great Witch, and they are also willing to befriend our tribe. At that time, Dawu had always thought that the world of his dreams was finally perfect. ”

But these good days didn't last long. One year there was a snow disaster, the heavy snow fell for half a month, the most serious time, even the cave in the tribe was buried, the food and materials in the tribe were very well prepared, nothing more than the difficult point, not so much loss to the tribe. ”

But when the snow stopped, the nightmare began. In the wasteland, the beasts have nothing to eat. The grazing animals were starved to death and buried in the snow, leaving only the sturdy ones. The meat-eating beasts hunted alone and could not catch their prey, so they gathered together in groups. Maybe there were too few prey in the wilderness, or maybe they felt that people with only two legs were easier for them to hunt, so the tribe began to be attacked by waves of wild beasts. Our tribe is closest to the Great Wilderness, so it is also the place where the beasts are most attacked. ”

"The tribesmen are desperately trying to resist the attacks of the beasts, but there are too many beasts in the mountains. One batch was driven away, and another batch came. The beast tide brought fresh food to the tribe, but it also took the lives of many people. After one winter, nearly half of the tribe's warriors died in the beast tide. ”

"As the snow slowly disappears, the tide of beasts recedes little by little. Just when everyone thought that the miserable life was finally over, the real nightmare came. ”

"After the incident, I learned that many people from the tribe that was wiped out by your grandfather did not die, and after those people fled, they actually gathered together. The survivors of several tribes have formed a new tribe called Bloody Palm, which means that they must take revenge with their own hands. Several tribes scattered even gathered two or three hundred people. And they did not leave the land, nor did they give up their plans for revenge. He has been hiding in the shadows like a mouse, secretly paying attention to us. When they found out that we had lost a large number of warriors, and that most of the rest of the tribe were old and weak, women and children, they thought that this was the weakest time for the tribe. So they launched another brazen sneak attack. ”

"On a moonless night, they attacked. This time they don't want slaves, they just kill people and destroy everything they can. The clansmen resisted desperately, and those who could survive the beast tide were the strongest warriors. When they finally repelled the enemy, they found that the tribe had almost all of them killed. ”

Speaking of this, the fat witch asked Da Shi and Lao Jiu: "You all remember what happened that night, right?" ”

Tang Ge looked at the three of them in surprise, only to see the big stone clutching the handle of the knife, his knuckles were white from excessive force, his face was resentful, and his eyes could almost spew fire. The mute seemed to understand what the fat witch was talking about, he had always been smiling, but he was gritting his teeth at the moment, and his eyes became unusually ferocious.

Neither of them spoke, only Lao Jiu, staring at his red eyes, gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Of course I remember!" Even if I die, I won't forget! That night, the third grandmother hid all the children she could find in the most remote cave, buried the hole in the snow, and cried outside telling us not to make a sound, and not to come out unless someone from the tribe greeted us. Inside the cave was pitch black, and nothing could be seen, but outside there were sounds of killing, cries, and howls. Everyone was stupefied, and I was so scared that I peed my pants! Only the dumb man didn't understand what was going on, and kept screaming, so we shut him up. If Aoyama hadn't found out earlier, the dumb man would have been killed by us that night! ”

"We have been waiting for the third grandmother to say hello. It wasn't until dawn that the living people found us. When we came out, we saw the third grandmother lying not far from the cave, covered with wounds, and I don't know how many holes were stabbed on her body, but she didn't scream until she died! ”

"Everybody was crazy, crying and shouting and looking for their families. I was so frightened that I couldn't walk, and it was the big rocks and the little red that carried me home. There was blood everywhere along the way, and dead people everywhere. As soon as the stone sees a dead man, he rushes over to look at it. If it's tribal, tow it to the side of the road. That was the first time I really admired the stone, and he dragged the dead to the side of the road with a stiff face, even the dismembered bodies。。。。。。 He tried to collect as many piles as he could。。。。。 ”

Speaking of this, Lao Jiu couldn't stop crying, and the stone and mute also burst into tears. Tang Ge lowered his head, and with the shovel in his hand, he pressed the piece of meat on the stone slab to death, not noticing that the piece of meat had already been paste. At this moment, he was also dumbfounded, and Lao Jiu's narration made him feel an uncontrollable anger in his heart. Although he kept saying to himself in his heart, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Those are people who have nothing to do with you, and you don't know them at all. But the tears in the corners of his eyes couldn't be stopped, and they were flowing down.

The fat witch took the shovel, shoveled off the piece of burnt meat, and said to the mourning and crying Lao Jiu, "Lao Jiu, or I'll talk about it." ”

Lao Jiu waved his hand vigorously and shouted, "Let me finish!" ”

It took Lao Jiu a long time to calm down, and then said: "A lot of people died that night, many, many. There are all kinds of ways to die. They didn't just kill people, in order to vent their anger, those brutes thought of the Fa to torture the clansmen who were caught by them, even the old people and children。。。。。。。 ”

"That was the first time we knew that people can die so badly. It wasn't until that day that I understood what the Great Witch said: If a person doesn't treat a person as a human being, then that person can't be considered a human being. In the past, when I heard Da Wu say this, I always felt that it was a very ridiculous joke. It was also on that day that I realized how much pain and sorrow was contained in this ridiculous sentence. ”
