Chapter 591: The Altar
But before they had time to think about it, the people on the altar had already spotted their traces, and I motioned for them to come with one hand, so they had no choice but to row the boat over.
"Why did you come here? Today is a good day for the sacrifice, don't delay, come up quickly. ”
The crowd on the altar said to them, so they could only walk up to the altar, Rong Ruofeng I was used to it in my heart, but I didn't show it, a few people pretended to be merchants, mixed in the crowd, and wanted to wait for the end of this sacrifice to leave randomly.
And Rong Ruofeng was curious about this statue, and when he mixed in the crowd, he didn't simply stand there, but listened carefully to the words around him.
It didn't take long for him to gather some information from their sporadic words, it turned out that this altar was the altar that Hu used to pray for food, and the woman on the altar was also a princess deified by Hu Bu, that is, the red princess.
Through their words, Rong Ruofeng understood why they wanted to sacrifice this statue, it turned out that they thought that every grain they ate was conjured by this princess, so they came to sacrifice the red princess with gratitude.
Seeing this, he didn't feel a little sentimental in his heart, this must be a stereotypical impression that he was told by others since he was a child, otherwise, normal people should know that food grows from the ground, not from a certain god.
But he saw it. There is nothing he can do about it, this is not Tianshui Country, and he has no way to change this.
"Mr. Rong, we can wait for their altar to finish before leaving, if we leave now, it will definitely arouse their suspicions, then I'm afraid it won't be good."
Yang Qi whispered to Rong Ruofeng, with a cautious expression on his face, vigilantly staring at the pedestrians around him, for fear that they would come to a surprise attack.
"I also think so, we can go to the shore later, I want to see why their land can't be cultivated? This is a question worth digging into, and since they are here to steal food, I think we should solve the problem at the root cause. Rong Ruofeng said,
"Solve the problem at the root, but they want to fight with us, I think it is better to stop the war with war."
Yang Qi shook his head and said to Rong Ruofeng,
"No, no, no, this is not the last resort, you also saw it along the way, the people of Hu are not all fierce and evil, there are also good people among them, and when we changed clothes, you also heard that their biggest wish is to have food to eat, and then live and work in peace and contentment, there is nothing wrong with them, why should they suffer from the invasion of war?"
Rong Ruofeng shook his head and said to General Yang Qi, with a stainless look on his face.
Isn't this what is called a woman's kindness? But at this time, it was inconvenient for him to say anything, so he could only nod and reluctantly agree for the time being, but he had other ideas in his heart.
For so many years, Hu Bu has waged war against them every time, and Yang Qi himself has fought more than ten battles, do you say that the blood of his soldiers can be shed in vain?
If there is a chance to destroy this tribe, Yangmei will definitely not be merciful, and I believe that those officials in the court also have this idea.
After waiting for the end of the sacrifice, they went ashore, and now Rong Ruofeng was not in a hurry to leave, after getting rid of Hu Bu's pursuit, after passing through the altar incident in the big river, his heart can be said to have a very great curiosity about this tribe.
To put it simply, as long as people are not lazy, there will always be food to eat, but why do they use this method to get food?
In one of the farmsteads, they found the land that the peasants had spoken of, and when they got there, they were astonished.
Sure enough, when they came ashore, they came to a farmstead, where he also found the ultimate reason, sighed secretly, looked at the barren land in front of him, he finally understood, why the people here have no food to eat, it turns out that the land here is no longer suitable for farming, and there are a few small green meadows around.
And these grasslands have been eaten up by cattle and sheep without knowing how to cherish them, and what awaits them next is the desertification of these grasslands, so how can they grow food?
"It's really funny that this land can grow food, what kind of natural disaster is this, this is a man-made disaster."
Bai Shaochong couldn't help but call out in surprise, even the piano girl next to him couldn't help but say, "Yes, originally I thought they were suffering from drought, but I didn't expect that the desertification would be so serious, I think if they used the grassland, there would never be such a scene." ”
Rong Ruofeng nodded, it seems that when the land in his own country is not enough to grow food, they can only survive by robbing other countries' food, when he thinks of this, he hates those in power, and at the same time pities these farmers.
"It seems that this is the way of life they live by, it's really too much, although our country produces a lot, but it can't support them to do this." Yang Qi shook his head and said.
"Well, that's true, but I have a solution, and that's I'm going to help them increase their production, what do you think? And I think it's good for our country, I ......."
Rong Ruofeng smiled and said to Yang Qi.
"No, how can this be done? If they are full, then we are not going to suffer? ”
Yang Qi is a general, and his pattern and vision are not the same as Rong Ruofeng, so when the other party's words were not finished, he raised his hand and interrupted the other party's words.
Rong Ruofeng also knew what his attitude was, and then said, "Then let's find a place to rest first." ”
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted."
General Yang Qi said that he could pass this plan, mainly because it didn't require too much energy.
After all, the group has been walking for most of the day, and everyone is very tired, so they can take a break and think about their next step.
"Alright, let's go." Rong Ruofeng sighed, still thinking about the things he had raised before, and a few people went to find a place to rest.
