Chapter 810: Transaction 3
For unknown reasons, Sogou suddenly couldn't search for this site today, please keep in mind the domain name of this site (Shuhai Pavilion full spelling) to find your way home!
The inaction made the other forces even more worried, and no one knew what the rules of the newborn gods were, and if they were evil gods, they didn't know how much blood they would have to shed to calm the situation.
There were no tortures and killings of prisoners during the battle in Shenshu Village, which was great news for the surrounding villages. Living here, no one knows if their tribe will be wiped out the next day, and becoming a captive is not far from everyone.
The population was too small, and the head of the village had to stop expanding. From the elderly to the infants, Shenshu Village can afford to have more than a hundred people, and thousands of captives are already a great burden.
That's right, it's a burden.
In the past, the slaves were good, and they did the dirty, heavy, and dangerous work, and the villagers could save a lot of effort and time.
The current head of Mutou Village looks down on these money-losing goods, not to mention that the food consumed every day is a large sum, and the ability to go out hunting is also poor. Even with the help of the villagers, most of the food brought back by the slaves went into their own stomachs, and there was not much left.
Because of this, the village chief was about to get angry. It's also that he has practiced hard to forge his body, otherwise, he will have to be embarrassed by these mud.
"I'll just say, if I don't get you back, I'll be able to do it in the winter! One by one, who is not short of food in winter? Anyone else is to blame for starving to death in the wilderness. ”
At the village meeting at night, the village chief next to the campfire spat and splashed, counting the slaves. The slaves who squatted in the outer circle buried their heads in shame, and what they said was true, they did not have the confidence to breed dissatisfaction.
"Lao He, tell me, what should I do? The hard work of the hunting team has entered your stomach, who is the slave and who is the uncle! ”
The village chief knocked his cigarette pouch on the stone bench, pointed to a new villager, and asked dissatisfiedly.
The wealthy Shenshu Village is no longer only a few stone tools that can be used, every family has wooden furniture, and luxury goods such as cigarette pouches have gradually become the hearts of old men. There used to be a lot of wooden objects, but they were all burned in the cold winter of last year, and it was not a fluke that the stone tools were left, just because they couldn't be burned.
"Village chief, slave hunting is far inferior to hunting teams, and the work is okay. Our village is so simple, how can we put the Tree God in such a place, it must be expanded. ”
'Don't blame the tree god, little old man will definitely build a magnificent temple for you. ’
The village chief blushed when he heard this, and he confessed again and again in his heart.
The Dryad had not appeared for a long time, and he had forgotten about it.
"The matter of the temple cannot be delayed, and the village needs to be expanded. The slaves worked hard to expand the stockade in an effort to give it a new look before winter came. If there are any slaves left, let them contribute to the village. For example, Kawamura is good at finding water and hot springs, and similar tasks can be assigned to us. ”
"Lao He, you are worthy of being the village chief for half your life, and your opinions are very good."
The village chief affirmed.
Hearing this, the slaves who were waiting for the verdict of fate were also relieved, and no one would give food to useless slaves. Whether they were killed or driven out of the village, they would not survive this year, and they were happier than the village chief to hear that they were still useful.
Lao He just smiled modestly and talked in generalities.
When it comes to key aspects, he doesn't say a word. The reason why the Divine Tree Village is so strong, and why the slaves seem to be useless, are all inseparable from the body forging technique passed down by the Tree God.
As the village chief who took the initiative to surrender with the whole village, he was already an official member of the glorious Divine Tree Village, and the body forging technique was naturally open to him and his family. But this is the superior reliance of the villagers, and as a new addition, the riverside will not touch this sensitive point.
No one will pass it on to slaves, and no tribe will do such a stupid thing.
If it is not transmitted, slaves are useless; Passing it on is not conducive to the absolute rule of the villagers of Genshin Tree Village. Leakage and the like can never happen, and the existence of the gods is the Dinghai Divine Needle.
"The Divine Tree Village needs to absorb fresh blood, where the new villagers will come from, as the first slaves, you have the best chance. The village chief will have your performance recorded, and those who behave well will be exempted from slave status and become an official villager of the Sacred Tree Village. ”
The area where the slaves were located erupted in earth-shattering celebrations, and they talked freely with acquaintances about the good life in the future.
"Village Chief, everything in the Divine Tree Village was given by the Tree God, and this decision must be approved by the Tree God before it can be implemented."
Shi Shu ignored the face of the village chief, confronted him in public, and said categorically.
"You guys! If you want to become a member of the Sacred Tree Village, eat, dress, and become stronger, you must first believe in the great Tree God! ”
After saying that, no matter how angry the village chief was, he told the slaves the preconditions.
"I'm thinking about the future of the village! Do you bother the Dryad with any trivial things? ”
Captain Shishu didn't say a word, and he didn't want to erase the mistake of making an assertion even if you let your tongue bloom.
The other villagers recovered from their bewildered state and went to the two to persuade them.
During the hunt, the village chief also said that he would pass on the position of village chief to Captain Shishu, and the two used to get along very well. What happened today, why did the two of them suddenly quarrel.
"The old man also said that the village chief, it's not your turn to speak!"
"Don't ask the Tree God, don't think I'll agree to your proposal!"
The person was pulled, but the two of them were not idle.
"Do you want to be the village chief anymore! Without the ability to decide, no matter how strong the strength is, it is not suitable for this position. ”
Shi Shu didn't want to let it, and he poked the village chief's soft underbelly all of a sudden. Hearing this, the village chief's face was extremely ugly.
"Everything in the Divine Tree Village is inseparable from the gift of the Tree God, and this little thing can't be done well, so what qualifications do you have to give back to the Tree God."
The village chief has a lot of words, talking about eloquence, where is the muscular man his opponent.
"We must always maintain a humble attitude, and you know what you think in your heart."
After Shi Shu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Why do the gods protect the tribes?"
Shi Shu thought for a moment and opened with a question sentence.
"Genzai, you say."
Captain Ishiki smiled kindly, and the young recruits have always been the object of their care, just like their own children.
"For the faith!"
At this moment, Genzai is a child waiting for praise from adults.
"That's right, faith!"
"I can understand the old village chief's thoughts, our Shenshu Village has always lived on its own, and he feels unsteady when he pins everything on God."
"You should have heard rumors of other tribal gods, and tribes and gods are interdependent. For the sake of faith, the gods need to have complete control over the tribe and will not allow voices that differ from Him. Neither had a choice, and even if someone angered the gods, he would not cause irreparable harm to the entire tribe. ”
"The Tree God is obviously different, the god produced by the sacrifice does not experience the Thunder Tribulation, he is only manifested after the Thunder Tribulation. I speculate that his existence is similar to that of a demon god, as evidenced by the fact that he can leave the village entirely. ”
"In other words, we are unilaterally under the protection of God."
"The Tree God does not have the slightest desire to control the tribe, and the reason why he shelters us is because of the love we have spent with for countless years. The Sacred Tree Village is inseparable from the Tree God, and we must dedicate our faith and show our worth so that we will not be abandoned by the Tree God. ”
"The village chief's idea is well-intentioned, and he wants us to be self-reliant, and his attitude will not anger the tree god for a while. However, the more you use it, the less you use it. When the Tree God feels that we don't need Him, or that we run out of affection, do we really have the ability to gain a foothold in the Ganquan Mountains? ”
"Standing alive? Or do you give your faith for the future of your village? Me and the village chief, who is wrong? ”
The village chief is the person Shi Shu respects the most, but he is like this. Shi Shu, who was in a complicated mood, confided in his comrades-in-arms while drinking a bowl of juice from time to time, and soon fell asleep groggily.
The two of them carefully carried the stone tree to the bedroom, and then everyone left together.
It's too complicated! Leave these things to the two of them, and we'll only be responsible for bringing back plenty of prey. Everyone went home to rest with a smile, as long as there was no conflict between Shi Shu and the village chief, they didn't bother to think about other things.
Young people, I don't know that disagreement is more terrible than any contradiction.
The next day, Shi Shu went to visit the village chief's house with gifts.
As soon as the door opened, the village chief saw the things he was carrying, his face immediately changed, and he slammed the door shut.
The village chief's reaction was too intense, and Shi Shu was a little confused by the second monk. He stood in front of the village chief's house and thought for a while, then looked at the things he was carrying, and then suddenly realized.
"Uncle, I brought good tobacco leaves. Some time ago, I was afraid that you would not be able to control the pumping too much and hurt your body, so I only took out a small part. It's all for you anyway, and it's all for you today. ”
Shishu shouted loudly into the courtyard.
The village chief opened the courtyard door with a tense face, snatched the tobacco leaves, ignored the stone tree at the door, and went straight back to the main hall.
Seeing that the village chief did not close the door again, Shi Shu smiled and walked into the wide open door.
"Boy, I'm still polite. Next time I come to the door with a gift, I'll break your legs. ”
The village chief, who smashed his mouth, pretended to emphasize fiercely.
"Uncle, my big man, what do you call 'boy', it's really."
"What, excuse me? In my eyes, you've always been the little kid who peed your pants. ”
The two of them had their own hearts and minds, and they no longer spoke, and the only sound in the lobby was the village chief smoking.
"Uncle, it stands to reason that your proposal should be made by me, a big man. You don't have to bear that much. ”
Shi Shu said ashamedly.
"You've been thinking about this all night?"
The village chief asked with a smirk.
"Don't you just want to risk sacrificing yourself to find out what the village is going to do? Could it be that there is something else? Shi Shu humbly asked.
"Oh, what do you think? It's just the two of us here, and we can just say it. The village chief's words are all about teaching Shishu.
"You want to test the Dryad's desire to control the village, and even if the Dryad-sama gets angry, it's only your fault. In case of success, the Sacred Tree Village will be even stronger. You sacrifice your ego to fulfill it..."
As he spoke, Shi Shu was moved to tears and looked at the village chief with admiration.
"! I haven't lived long enough. Oh, I see, you kid thinks of the tree god as a murderous demon god. ”
The village chief hurriedly stopped Shi Shu and prevented him from continuing. The village chief looked at Shi Shu's moving appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, he was not so great.
"Think about it, has the Treant ever shown a desire for faith?"
"Nope!"
Shi Shu suddenly realized, slapped his thigh, and stood up in shock.
"The body forging technique passed down by Lord Tree God is naturally wonderful, but it can't make us all the people in the village make such great progress, and the power of faith should be used by Lord Tree God on us."
As soon as the village chief spoke, Shi Shu couldn't believe it, he had never heard of such a generous god.
"You, you're still young, how do you know the miracles of heaven and earth. Does God necessarily need faith? Is God either a belief or a demon? I don't know, uncle, but I don't think everything is limited to what I know. ”
Shi Shu admired the wisdom of the village chief, and he still ate less salt, and the pride that had risen some time ago disappeared at this moment.
"Why did you have to argue with me last night?"
The stone tree still has something to understand.
"It's you kid who is against me, and the authority of the village chief must be maintained. Regardless of whether or not the Tree God will leave, and when he will leave, I believe that I, an ordinary person who will die at any time, is far less stable than believing in the Tree God. One hundred and three villagers, one thousand four hundred and twenty-one prisoners, it is not a matter of strict defense. ”
"I haven't been able to give you grace and power, but you kid took the initiative to cooperate and stand up to promote the status of the tree god in the village. Our good life is visible to the naked eye, and as long as they are sure of their faith, it is believed that these captives will soon integrate into the village. ”
The village said with a smile that the stone trees were also unintentionally planted with willows and willows.
"If I hadn't contradicted you, how are you going to exert your power?"
Shi Shu asked curiously.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and winter is coming. There were far fewer battles in the Ganquan Mountains, but the intensity of each battle was not comparable to what it had been before.
Whether they are intelligent creatures or not, they understand that finding enough food to survive the winter in the only time they have left is their only way to survive. This is the most dangerous time, and the battle involving food is often life and death, and the beasts, aliens, and humans who are cornered are all desperate.
Creatures that are sure to survive the winter have nested in their nests early to guard their food, avoiding the wild beasts that go berserk outside. Building a nest in a safe place is an extremely important skill, and if discovered, it is likely to make a wedding dress for someone else.
Outside Shenshu Village, everyone is working overtime, striving to expand the village as soon as possible. At this moment, there is no need to worry about slaves stealing and cheating. Buildings that can protect from the cold must be provided to the villagers first, and the slaves are kept in a very simple place, which is difficult to endure in the autumn, and it is fortunate that they do not die in the winter.
If they can't build a new wall as soon as possible, how can they have time to improve their living place, it's a matter of their lives, and I don't believe they won't die.
The tired and sweaty slaves had long inadvertently noticed Captain Shishu standing on the wall of the new city. They didn't have much time to waste, and continued to bury their heads and work, what did the arrival of Captain Shishu have to do with them.
