Chapter 59: Racial Hatred by Word of Mouth

Chen Xuyuan secretly said in his heart: The mountains and forests on the opposite side are by no means easy to deal with, and I am afraid that there are also generals and leaders who have fought old battles, and there is little chance of successfully weakening the enemy in a night attack. Besides, in this season of lush vegetation and verdant, even if you want to sneak attack and burn the camp and burn the forest at night, I am afraid that you will not be able to light a fire without a large amount of fire oil. Besides, the Karui shaman on the opposite side does not have enough spell casting and attack spells, so I am afraid that there may not be no way to interfere with the fire extinguishing.

But~ this is my business.

If it weren't for the fact that a few of them had no way to obtain the lord's customs clearance documents and road guides before, the black-haired and black-eyed Karui walked in the territory of the AIDS people, who were mostly blonde and blue-eyed, and the way that there was no official proof was too eye-catching, he would have left directly.

Just when the lord Lu Dawei had also finished inspecting and pacifying the soldiers and people in the city, and left the city wall to go back to enjoy the thirteenth slender waist beauty maid he had recruited into the castle to suppress his shock, Master Chen, who was standing in front of the arrow buttress of the female wall at the head of the wall, suddenly heard that not far from the wall, the two soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield, picking up arrows, and burying the corpses of their comrades quarreled for some reason, and the young soldiers under a few men in tattered clothes on one side became more and more excited and loud, and it seemed that they were ready to fight.

"Stop! What's going on?!"

The two soldiers, who were arguing in anger, turned their heads to look at the source of the words with angry eyes, only to see that today's powerful wizard master was lightly tiptoe from the wall, carrying his hands behind his back, and the corners of his robes fluttered lightly, and he was as chic as a mountain floating down from the city.

The difference between dignity and inferiority from the depths of the blood suddenly made the local soldiers from mud legs shrink in arrogance, and several people stopped arguing with a look on their faces.

However, when they saw the wizard approaching and questioning, several people looked at each other with stiff expressions, and they didn't know who to take the lead to start with first, and they were all a little afraid that they would offend the wizard if they said the wrong thing and be turned into a frog or a poisonous snake by "poof", and then it would be miserable.

But the wizard couldn't help but reply, so they all bowed their heads a little resignedly.

These local peasant soldiers have not necessarily walked out of the village a hundred miles away in their lives, at most they have traveled from the village to the town to catch the market, they are different from the mercenaries recruited by Baron Garcia, those mercenaries are used to licking blood from the knife edge, but they are not too afraid of spellcasters, maybe some mercenaries accept other noble lords when they are hired by war, and they also kill and stab to death the naΓ―ve young low-level spellcasters who have just left the academy at close range on the battlefield.

However, the AIDS veteran who was almost beaten before was calmer, he took a step forward first, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the wizard master, just now these young people wanted to dig out the hearts of the Karui people who died in battle, saying that they were going to cook and eat them to commemorate the dead comrades and his nephew. I thought it was too much blasphemy against the dead, so I stepped forward to stop them, and we got into an argument. ”

Chen Xuyuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and did not immediately make up his mind, but first turned his head to look at the leading young soldier on the other side.

The young man, who was arguing with the veteran, immediately stood up with excitement and said: "The Karui people have a cannibalistic custom, and they killed so many of us today, I just reported it again!! old Hall, don't think that I don't know that your grandmother is a Karui who ran down from the mountain. But you can't speak with a clear conscience, and you have pity on my brother-in-law and nephew, who were just a little trader in the towns, and they were killed by the Karui and had their entrails and eyes gouged out, so that my sister ran home and wept all day long. β€œ

The young soldier was a little emotional as he spoke, and he couldn't stop crying on his face.

"Luke, how can I have a clear conscience?! Your nephew was killed in the suburbs, but it wasn't necessarily the Karui who did it. In recent years, there have been fewer bandits and bandits in the territory who pretend to be Karui and intercept and kill merchants? And it is also possible that they have encountered the border patrol - those troops who fight wild food and oil, I have long heard that those troops are much more vicious than the bandits, and in order to prevent others from knowing, they will kill them. Those bandits and Karui people, on the contrary, know that the water is long, and they will not easily fish in the water, as long as they do not resist, most of them only seek money and do not die. Do you think your brother-in-law will be a miser who only wants money and does not want his son and his own life?"

The veteran captain sighed and continued: "And I heard that the Karui people have more contact with other kingdoms, and they have also civilized a lot, but only a few closed barbarian tribes in the deep mountains, old forests and islands still retain the habit of cannibalism, and in other cases, unless it is to hold a sacrifice to the gods, most of them rarely desecrate the dead. If you dig out someone's heart today, and when the time comes, they will attack the town, and they will still take revenge on your family? And maybe other townspeople will be affected by your behavior, how can you bear it?"

When Chen Xuyuan heard this, he had already completely understood the whole thing. It's just that a few people behind the soldier who are wearing broken straw hats and ragged clothes like the most down-to-earth scavengers, and they also show a pair of yellow teeth with a flattering smile, and their eyes flicker and dare not look directly at him.

"Who are they?" he asked Luke, the young soldier who was leading the way.

"If you go back to the master, they are serfs from a nearby farm, and they all ran back to the town because there was going to be a war. Mr. Garcia arranged for them to follow them to collect stones, firewood, and carry corpses, and to give us a hand. When I heard that there was meat to eat, I ran over and said that I wanted to help me and wanted to share some meat. ”

Luke's words made Chen Xuyuan more strange, because he heard that Baron Garcia, who was suspected of being a fellow traveler, usually said his ambitions and ideas for democracy and human rights at the dinner table, so he asked suspiciously: "Why are there still slaves? Aren't your lords advocating rights, democracy, and Juntian? Most of the people in the town don't seem to be short of food and clothing, didn't he keep his promise to release all slaves from their free status." ”

The veteran Hale seemed to know more about this, and he gestured to the people next to him: "In the past, it was true that a group of family children and slaves were unconditionally released, but later it was found that the castle was understaffed, and the rich families in the town also objected to this, and finally issued a decree that voluntary selling of oneself and the sale of debts into slavery were still reasonable and legal." To put it bluntly, there will be no change of soup and no change of medicine in the past. Nowadays, some slaves are poor people who sell their property to their families for medical treatment, but there are also many gamblers and drunkards who end up as slaves, and selling themselves into slavery is not entirely a bad thing. One side has a stable food, and for the security of the territory, it is easy to control these scoundrels who are concentrated in the Zhuangzi like this, so as not to cause trouble everywhere in the territory. ”
