Chapter 24: Return to the Village

Barr walked to the door, called Bart and a few guards, and the group hurried to the bay north of the water village.

Not much.

Behind a reef, Barr and the others found the location of the treasure.

"This is it, dig!"

As soon as Barr gave the order, Bart and the others took out their tools and dug up, and in a few moments, a large wooden box appeared in front of several people, looking a little shabby, and should have been buried here for a long time.

The box was unlocked, and Barr stepped forward to open it.

[System Prompt: You opened the Shuizhai Treasure Chest, and you got 300 gold coins. 】

[You have obtained the recipe for the underwater breathing potion.] 】

【You have Fishman Outfit (Warrior)*10. 】

【You have Fishman Set (Archer)x10. 】

The tinkling sound of the cue kept ringing.

Baal took a look, there are a lot of gold coins, underwater breathing potions are in great demand in the middle and late stages, after use, it can allow users to get 30 minutes of underwater breathing ability, it is a good potion, underwater exploration, treasure hunting can be used, and it has a wide range of uses.

The fish-man suit is a level 10 piece of equipment, and the attributes are okay, and these suits in the box, there are six sets of green suits, three sets each for warriors and archers, and the rest are white suits. Barr's backpack can't be packed, so it's all handed over to Bart to carry for the time being, as an ancient unit, Bart's backpack is quite large, with hundreds of compartments, which is much larger than Barr's.

These equipment have helped me a lot, and now there are no blacksmith shops and clothing stores in the territory, so there is no way to produce equipment on a large scale, and these equipment can be regarded as a big improvement for the people under him.

Like elemental life, Bart as a semi-elemental life does not need to be equipped, all elemental life can use its own elements to condense its own equipment, such as Bart's shield and armor are condensed by using their own earth element, with the improvement of their own strength, the equipment they can condense will be stronger, but there are also some rare special items, elemental life can also be equipped.

When they returned, Lilith and the others had been waiting at the gate of the water village for a long time.

As soon as Barr greeted them, the group set out on their way back to the village, which slowed down a lot because they had to take the rescued villagers with them.

......

"Old man, why were you caught by the fishmen?"

The old gentleman Barr said was one of the rescued captives, an old cat man, his hair was already a little gray, and his body was a little rickety, but this old cat man seemed to have a high prestige among these captives, and on the way back, he had nothing to do, so Barr chatted with him.

Hearing the nobleman ask himself, the old cat man hurriedly wanted to salute, and Barr quickly stretched out his hand to help him up, in this world, the concept of class is already deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

The old cat man's expression was slightly gloomy.

"My lord, the villain is the villagers of Qom Village in the north, most of these people are from our village, and the rest are villagers from nearby villages. Alas. ”

When Barr heard this, he knew it.

The land on the east coast is relatively barren, and the crop harvest is not high, if you meet a good lord, it is enough, if you meet some insatiable greed, the local tax rate is very high, the villagers can only be forced to go to sea to fish, you must know that there are many fish people nearby, it is reasonable to be caught.

"Didn't your village chief send troops to rescue you?" Barr asked, confused.

When the old cat man heard this, a little angry look leaked on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "How could that gentleman who only knows pleasure one day send troops to save us. ”

"Oh, why is that?" Barr looked at the old cat man.

The old cat man sighed and said: "After the death of the old village chief, the son of the village chief inherited the position of the village chief, but unexpectedly, the new village chief was unfortunately killed by the fish man when he went out. I heard that it was the youngest son of the mayor of Kulu Town in the north, not only did he not learn and did not know how to do it, but he also robbed the people's daughters and expropriated them violently, and the villagers dared to be angry and dare not speak. ”

Barr's heart moved.

"Haven't you ever thought about leaving the village and living somewhere else?"

"I thought about it." The old cat man hesitated for a moment, "But this place is sparsely populated, and it is far away from the surrounding villages, and it is too dangerous for us ordinary people to go to other villages." In addition, the grain production here on the east coast is already very low, and life is not easy, and the lord will be willing to take in us defected villagers. ”

"Why don't you come to my territory?" Barr said seemingly casually.

"My territory has just been established, and it is the time when you need manpower, so you might as well join my village, although I can't guarantee a good life for all of you now, but there is always no problem with food and clothing."

"Ah, will you take us in?" When the old cat man heard this, his face was happy, although he had not been to this adult's territory, but his strength was clear, and it was effortless to break through the fish-man water village.

In these years, you can live a long time with this powerful lord, which is also one of the reasons why although the village chief of Qom Village is a scumbag, few people are still willing to flee, after all, when people die, there is nothing.

"If the adults are willing to take them in, I'll talk to them, and most of them will definitely be willing to stay." The old cat man looked excited, "But, my lord, some of these people still have children in their families, I'm afraid this..."

After listening to the old cat man's words, Barr had a determined look on his face

"The old man can rest assured, I welcome those who are willing to stay, and I will not force those who are not willing to stay, I will arrange for someone to send them back."

"Thank you, sir!"

With Barr's assurance, the old cat man calmed down and returned to the rescued villagers. After a while, there was a lot of discussion in the ranks of the villagers.

Before noon, the group returned to the village.

The two guards at the door looked puzzled, there were only twenty or thirty people when their adults went out, why were there so many people when they came back.

Barr instructed the guards to arrange the rescued captives in the open space east of the village, and by the way, Bart asked Bart to hand over the equipment he had obtained this time to Lilith for distribution. Afterwards, he instructed John to arrange for someone to prepare lunch, and seeing that these villagers all looked yellow and thin, they should have a very unsatisfactory life in the fish-man water village.

After lunch, the old cat man came to him.

The old cat man's name is Abigail, and he used to be the housekeeper of the village chief of Qom.

This time, Barr rescued more than 100 villagers, of which more than 70 were willing to stay, most of them were villagers from Qom Village, and Barr temporarily handed them over to Abigail to manage, and the remaining Barr who did not want to stay did not force it, and instructed John to arrange for someone to send them back tomorrow.

Most of them were ordinary farmers, but among them was a high-ranking tailor and an intermediate apothecary.

The tailor is a cat-man girl named Ellie, only seventeen years old today, it is rare to become a senior tailor at such a young age, and the future development potential is not small, looking at her attributes, Barr also roughly understood the reason why she could become a senior tailor so quickly.

Name: Ellie

Race: Cat-people

Template: A common template

Level: 5

Occupation: None

Subclass: Senior Tailor

HP:400

MP:150

Attack: 100

Defense: 50

Talent:

Ingenuity: Greatly increases the success rate of item crafting and reduces the proficiency of crafting subclasses by 25%.

Remarks: Villagers of Hailan Village.

Different from the battles of ordinary cat people, Ellie's talent is more inclined to a subclass, which should be a mutated talent, which is very rare and has considerable cultivation value.

The pharmacist is a middle-aged cat man who is not tall, and the second-level village can build a medical hall, and the drawings of the underwater breathing medicine can also be handed over to him and made by him.

The new villagers are now working with the goblin laborers to build their dwellings, and Barr has planned the northeast side of the village as a residential area, where all the dwellings are built, and now the time is relatively tight, so he can only build a temporary dwelling for ten people to live in, and then slowly convert it into a separate courtyard.

Now that there is a tailor, the construction of a first-class clothing shop can begin, which can make clothes for the daily wear of the residents, as well as cloth armor and leather armor used by the French and archer professions in large quantities, which is still very useful.

By the way, Barr arranged for a few young female villagers to learn tailoring with Ellie, which could help her maintain the daily operation of the clothing store and reserve some technical talents for the village.
