Chapter 843: Bitter Fruit Eats Itself (Second Update)

In the end, the old village chief made a decision and mobilized the whole village, the men went to cut wood and hunt, and the women went to sew and mend or cook and cook.

He himself contacted the head of another village, hoping to get some material assistance from the other party.

Of course, the old village chief didn't have much hope for this, after all, the other party's village was not even as good as their village before the disaster, who knows what will become after the disaster...... It is possible that the entire village will die in the severe cold.

The snow on the mountain melts very slowly, and you can bury at least half of your leg when you go down, not to mention hunting, even logging is very reluctant, but it will save a lot of effort to drag the wood back.

It's just that without the stone and cement provided by Edric, if you build a house from wood alone, there will be problems in many aspects......

In addition, many villagers have survived the harsh winter, and many people have been attacked by hungry wild beasts, and some have even died from it. It seems that leaving the village at this time is not a wise choice.

After all, one of the two people in charge of logging and transportation was a near-mid-level magician, and the other was a centaur warrior whose strength was equivalent to that of a second-turn demon swordsman, not to mention the blessing of a series of items from the Adric Academy, ordinary beasts were really not their opponents.

Food became increasingly scarce, and people's diets began to change from thick oatmeal and white bread to thin porridge with almost no rice grains and bran cakes that could only be used to feed livestock...... And whether it is gruel or bran cake, there is only a small portion, and it is completely unfilling.

Just when the old village chief felt that he was already a bit desperate, the village he contacted finally responded.

The other party happily brought some stones and some food to eat.

"How can there be so many things in your village?"

The old village chief twisted his beard. Somewhat surprised, he asked the coachman sent by the village to deliver the stones.

"Because the magician master of the Adric Academy is helping us."

The honest man from another small village rubbed his nose and said with some embarrassment: "Although we feel a little ashamed, but if it weren't for their help, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to survive even a day, and we would have completely disappeared like the village where my grandfather used to stay......"

"They rebuilt the house for us, and it looked neat and nice; They give us a lot of food and teach us how we should get other foods during this period. They brought a lot of padded jackets, so that those of us who could not afford to buy padded jackets could also wear brand new clothes; They even invented the sleigh...... Here. It's this thing behind me. If you have a sled, it's easy to transport things where the snow hasn't melted. ”

Looking at the man whose face was full of respect for the Adric Academy, the old village chief hesitated for a moment, and then asked.

"So. Are there any wandering merchants or anything like that going to your village? Speak ill of those magician masters at Adric's Academy? ”

"Ahh You don't say I forgot. ”

The expression on the big man's face changed, and he seemed to be extremely angry: "There are indeed a few dog miscellaneous running around and chirping, saying that the previous natural disasters were caused by those magicians...... But the dog offal was beaten away by the people of our village. ”

"Hit, beat away?!"

The old village chief looked surprised.

For a lot of small villages. Merchants are also one of the few lifelines, and they often bring a lot of rare daily necessities, so the ordinary wild villages do not dare to commit crimes, for fear that the prestige of their village will deteriorate, and the merchants will not come again.

What's more, the current environment is still so bad that that small village dares to drive the merchants away, which is really incredible......

"Yes, there is nothing in our village worthy of the plans of the magicians. The magicians will help us out of pure kindness, but those dogs don't want to see our village gradually get better, and they tell the magicians that the magicians are wrong. The lives of our entire village were saved by the magician, how can we let that guy fart! ”

The man didn't seem to be able to enjoy what he said, and he gestured with his hands and feet: "So everyone beat up the dog offal and drove them out of the village." ”

"But in this case, what if there are no merchants to come to your village in the future?"

The old village chief immediately asked.

"When the magicians of the Adric Academy heard about this, they decided to let their caravan come around our village when they passed around the neighborhood and bring some daily necessities. Compared with those flamboyant and deceived merchants, of course we believe in the caravan of the magician master! ”

The man puffed out his chest and said proudly: "The magician master also said that as long as we have qualified babies in our village, we can go to Adrick to learn magic!" ”

Hearing this, the old village chief's expression finally turned discouraged.

Only now did he realize how stupid he was doing.

The people in his own village were not strong-willed, and after receiving the favor of those magicians, they listened to rumors and made unforgivable actions...... I couldn't stop it at the first time, and I even had the intention of waiting and seeing if I could get more benefits......

The mage is not an official sent by the town, and there is no room for bargaining.

They are mysterious, noble.

In fact, there are many people in the village who have never seen a magician in their lives.

Magicians are often in awe.

It's just that this time, those magicians in the Adric Academy are too approachable, giving them an illusion, thinking that they are not facing the kind of sexist who can easily argue with the lord, but just ordinary people, so they made this unforgivable behavior and angered the magician.

Although the merchants who spread rumors are not a good thing, the reason why the magicians are leaving is more because of the disappointment of the villagers.

Obviously he paid so much for the villagers, but he didn't get anything in return, but he reaped malice just because of some rumors......

If they could insist on believing in the magicians like that village, maybe they would still be able to smile and rebuild their homes together, instead of struggling like the walking dead in a heavy atmosphere like now.

A qiē stems from their own ignorance, their own ignorance, and their own short-sightedness.

And now, the bitter fruit of these shortcomings can only be tasted slowly by themselves...... (To be continued......)
