Chapter 185: The General Environment Is Like This (3/10, Autumn Subscription)
Fang Yue asked suspiciously, "What is the reason?" ”
Captain Yayama looked reminiscing.
"A long time ago, Beyond Village was also a big village, both in terms of area and other aspects, it was on par with our Manshui Village, and even far surpassed in terms of the flow of people, because the food here was particularly famous and attracted to outsiders."
"The prosperous Transcendence Village, at its peak, has as many as 5 captains, and its strength is also very strong! At that time, the safety of Beyond Village was far from being comparable to that of other villages. ”
"But later, I don't know if it was because of the large flow of people, or if something was done, Beyond Village was targeted by a powerful weirdness."
"The strange destruction of Beyond Village, and the rest of the people in Beyond Village fled to Manshui Village."
"Originally, Manshui Village didn't mind accepting this group of people from Chaoyue Village, but the two sides always disagreed and had friction with each other, and finally Manshui Village contributed and took the people from Chaoyue Village back to their original address - that is, here, and rebuilt Chaoyue Village."
"Because there are a lot fewer people, the village is also very small, of course, larger than the current Transcendence Village, which has been rebuilt I don't know how many times."
"When the village was first rebuilt, everyone in the village was full of confidence, farming and multiplying life, and most of the stone houses you see now were built at that time."
"But the good times are good, Beyond Village encountered another strange attack, their captain fought to the death, blocked the first attack, and when the second attack came, they were defeated and fled to Manshui Village again."
"This time, some people from Beyond Village have completely settled in Manshui Village, while the other part has returned to Beyond Village again to rebuild their homes after deciding to leave Strange."
"There is a homeland, but the people are gone, the captain is not a cabbage, and there is no strong man as the captain, so he can only be short and tall."
"But it can't stop the deterioration, every time the weird strikes, their village will die, flee to Manshui Village, and then turn back and rebuild the village when it is safe."
"In this cycle, there are fewer and fewer people, and the village is also being rebuilt again and again, reducing the scope of the territory, and the fence has shrunk a few times, becoming the current scale, and even almost becoming a subsidiary village of Manshui Village."
When Captain Mountain said this, he was a little embarrassed.
"There are actually many villages like Beyond Village, which are no longer villages, and most of them are the same as Manshui Village, and they no longer have the ability to protect the village. Once encountering a powerful and strange attack, they must abandon the village and flee to a nearby large village for refuge. ”
"Where is it so easy to flee from the village, what is the weird thing on the road, most of the last villagers of this small village will all die on the road, along with the name of the village, completely disappear in the long river of history, and no one will remember it again."
"In the case of Beyond Village, it is considered good, as long as the resources of Manshui Village are stably handed over every year, Manshui Village will take care of them."
"This is also because Beyond Village used to take care of Manshui Village very much, so it has such a feeling. In addition, Beyond Village is also very close to Manshui Village, there are relatively safe village roads, and it can be reached in half a day, which is one of the reasons why Beyond Village can survive for a long time. ”
"As for the housing problems you see in Beyond Village now, there are other problems, all because the villagers here are ready to abandon the village and flee to Manshui Village at any time."
Listening to Captain Shan's words, Fang Yue's face was full of astonishment, and it took a while before absorbing this knowledge.
He looked at the villagers in Beyond Village, and sure enough, all of them were yellow and thin, as if they hadn't eaten a meal, and they were often hungry.
In addition, if you look into the holes of some houses, you can see that the daily necessities in the houses are very simple, and they belong to the kind that can be discarded at any time.
This hard life is simply incomparable to Guyue Village Manshui Village or something.
Fang Yue frowned, could it be...... Is this the norm in other villages?
Fang Yue had seen so many villages in total, and she didn't know what the general environment of ordinary people was like under the background of weirdness and rampant.
But he vaguely felt that phenomena like Transcendence Village were the most common, and villages like Guyue Village, Manshui Village, which were guarded by masters, were scarce and scarce!
After thinking about it, Fang Yue suddenly thought of something.
"Captain Shan, I remember that the change of captain in the village needs to be reported to the superior Qingsi, right?"
Fang Yueke is stuck because of this kind of official procedure, and now he is still treated as a deputy captain.
"In a big village like our Manshui Village and your Guyue Village, it is natural that the change of captain needs to be reported. But there is no longer a need to report such as Beyond Village, because on the official map of the government, small villages such as Beyond Village are not counted in the statistics - that is, they are deprived of the qualification to be called villages! ”
"Huh? It's not a village, what's it called? ”
"I don't know, the colony? Tribe? Gang? Whatever it is, it's just not recognized by the above anyway. In the eyes of the government, the Transcendence Village will be in a state of expulsion forever before the birth of a captain who is not capable enough. ”
“…… That's cruel, isn't it? Isn't removal a complete disregard for whether they live or die? But they have guards beyond the village, doesn't that mean that they hold a bronze life order, that is the representative of the government! ”
Captain Mountain shook his head when he heard this.
"Nope. As early as the first time the village was destroyed, all the bronze longevity orders were recovered. The current Beyond Village, those people are called the Guards, but in fact they are just a group of self-styled villagers, who are not recognized by the government.
So they don't need to go through the procedure at all to change the captain's position or something, and even have a few captains if they want to. Of course, in order to continue the tradition, they only have one captain, usually the strongest person in their village. ”
Fang Yue understood.
Feelings are ugly, similar to the situation of Transcendence Village, the government is directly regarded as a bandit and a wolf.
Of course, it's not that serious, after all, the government won't send people to deal with them.
But no matter the attitude of not asking, it is equivalent to letting them fend for themselves, unless a martial arts level powerhouse is born and the position of captain is re-assumed, it can be re-recognized and the name of Transcendence Village will be reprinted on the map of Qingguo.
Now, Fang Yue also probably understood why the people of Beyond Village were so flattering to Captain Shan.
After all, they surpassed the village to survive by relying on Manshui Village, and once they encountered danger, they would definitely have to flee to Manshui Village, so they naturally knew Captain Shan, and they couldn't say that Captain Mountain had saved them before.
This kind of subordinate village, forming a relationship of supply and protection with the big village, I am afraid that it is the norm between villages and villages.
Like the words of Furutsuki Village...... Because of the awkward geographical location, there are no small villages around, so naturally there are no affiliated villages to suck blood, and it seems reasonable for the village to develop slowly.
