Chapter Thirty-Nine: Brother Zhen's Ambition
Brother Zhen returned triumphantly with his team, and he became famous all of a sudden, and Mama Li personally brought the old and young people in the camp to warmly welcome them, and welcomed Brother Zhen into the camp as a hero.
"This hundred-person group will be your concubine group in the future!" Mama Li seems to have given up on worrying about whether her daughter can have a grandson, and she politely handed over the youngest group of women in the camp and the most combat-ready warriors to Brother Zhen.
In the same way, with his opponents, he became famous. The places he led his men and horses to attack were described by some of the survivors with vivid and flattering descriptions, portraying him as if he were a god. There are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys are kings, and in a world without men, he has become a god worshiped by women on both sides of the world.
Naturally, the tribes of the original alliance no longer acted together, and the alliance collapsed invisibly. There are also several tribes who took the initiative to come to the door and asked for an alliance with Li Ma, and were willing to obey the orders of the "emperor". Two tribes also selected a few young and beautiful women to send them, saying that they were gifts to the "emperor".
"Send it back!" Brother Zhen is dizzy, and the woman he sent is indeed acceptable. However, they are all in their thirties, about the same age as Zheng Xiaojie, Li Ling'er, and Jennifer, what does he want them to do?
"Don't refuse," Li's mother persuaded: "That's a sign that people have good intentions and are willing to surrender to you." If you refuse, they will think that you don't accept their affection, but will resent you! ”
"Why do I want so many women?" Brother Zhen shouted. The hundred-member group of this tribe has already made him exhausted to cope, and he has to add women from other tribes, can he afford to toss?
"You're stupid," Li's mother gave him an idea: "You just let Xiaojie, Ling'er, and Jennifer stay on your side, follow you like the queen's concubine to protect you, and let them solve something if there is something?" ”
Unconsciously, Mama Li has begun to push Brother Zhen to the forefront, and it seems that Brother Zhen is the leader of this tribe.
Zheng Xiaojie smiled from ear to ear: "Your mother persuaded your father to be the king in the lover's fortress, but your father refused, saying that there was only one man, which is very strange." Now, you're here to pay off your dad's debts! ”
Brother Zhen couldn't cry or laugh. But the situation forced him to have no choice. Since becoming famous in the first fight, the pride in his heart seems to have begun to rise, and he wants to do something. Now that your prestige is growing, why not take this opportunity to do a big job?
He had a big goal, he wanted to unify all the tribes in the area. However, Zheng Xiaojie gave birth and gave birth to a son. This time, the whole camp boiled. The women, who had not seen a child born for many years, came to Li's mother's house in an endless stream to see the newborn baby.
"The little prince looks really energetic, just like his father!" That's what people who have seen children say. Several other tribesmen who had turned friendly heard that Brother Zhen had a child, and they all prepared gifts to visit.
Now, Brother Zhen has a "prince", he doesn't want to be an "emperor", and he has to be a "emperor", which makes him distressed.
"Why are you so sad?" Li Ling'er looked at him sadly and laughed at him: "I treat you as an emperor, so decent, you are unhappy, stupid or not!" ”
"What's there to be happy about?" Brother Zhen disagreed. After all, he grew up in a modern dungeon, and he knew what the old title "Emperor" was. If he goes back and meets the people there in the future, they know that he is regarded here as the "emperor" of the exiled women, and he will not be laughed to death?
He had a dungeon in mind. All the frustration and unhappiness in the dungeon have long been diluted at this time, and there is no longer the original heartache.
But now, he knew it wasn't time. From the dungeon network system, he understands the current situation and plight of the earthlings, and understands that humanity is on the verge of extinction. But all this, he knew that the people here didn't care, he had to take his time.
The only one who can confide in her confidants is Zheng Xiaojie alone. For most of the six months that he and she traveled north, he sometimes talked about this kind of thing. However, when he told Zheng Xiaojie his vision, Zheng Xiaojie was silent.
"What's the matter, sister?" He's weird. There is a saying that water flows to lower places, and people go to higher places. The high-tech facilities in the dungeon, the colorful network of systems that can be seen in everything, are vivid. And here, there is not even the most basic lighting power, and you have to light torches when you go out at night, let alone anything else. The experience of going away from home made him see the gap between here and the dungeon, could Zheng Xiaojie rather live in this wild place for the rest of her life?
"Can I go back?" After repeated questioning, Zheng Xiaojie finally spoke: "I am your aunt, and now I have a child with you, do I still have the face to go back?" ”
Brother Zhen suddenly realized: It turns out that Zheng Xiaojie is still struggling with this!
"I remember when I was in the dungeon, Professor Xu Yunzhi talked about it when he gave us a lecture!" Brother Zhen said: "She said that the reproduction of earthlings depends on us people. Therefore, in the future, whether we are half-siblings or not, we can date, we can be affectionate, and we can have children! ”
"But I'm different! I'm ...... I'm ...... with your dad I'm a generation older than you! ”
"It makes no difference!" Brother Zhen sneered, the predecessors of the earthlings have ruined the earth to the way it is now, even if they are resurrected, can they still blame the descendants for not following the rules and only knowing how to survive and reproduce?
"I'll go back, your mother will beat me to death......" Zheng Xiaojie sighed faintly.
"Impossible, she herself has become a little girl, and she dares to beat you?" Brother Zhen said: "Even if she wants to beat you, I'll beat her up first to see if she dares to be arrogant!" ”
Thinking of Sister Zhen being tricked by the Jones people and cloned into a little girl, Zheng Xiaojie couldn't help but "pounce", thinking about it, how many people broke their heads and wanted to squeeze into Central City in the gathering place? Later, in the dungeon, she and Lin Lin were assigned to the Academy of Sciences to take care of the children, during that time, they did not have to worry about food and clothing, and lived a comfortable and comfortable life, that is the life that people should have, how could she not want to? She finally promised Brother Zhen that she would definitely go back if she had the opportunity to go back.
"That's good!" Zheng Xiaojie was convinced, and Brother Zhen was very happy: "Next, you have to talk more about this topic with Li Ling'er, Jennifer, etc., and talk more about the situation over there!" ”
Zheng Xiaojie agreed: "Then what are you going to do?" ”
"You have to take your time here," Brother Zhen's bold idea has gradually taken shape: "I have to get all the people here first!" After that, if you want to go with me, I'll take it with you. ”
As soon as the plan was decided, Brother Zhen began to act. When the child was about to turn 100 days old, he discussed with Li's mother that he would invite the leaders of all tribes to participate in the child's 100-day banquet, and take this opportunity to contact everyone and discuss how to benefit each other in the future, so as not to fight for life and death for their own interests.
"Your idea is only half the battle!" Li's mother said. Of course, she also wants the tribes to never fight each other again, but it seems difficult: "A few tribes that have been allied with us will of course respond, but the others will ignore you." ”
"Regardless of him, we still invite them politely, if you don't come, it's theirs!"
According to Brother Zhen's design, all invitations were delivered to the tribes on time.
On the day of the child's 100th day, the tribal leader arrived, but three tribes were missing. They don't say anything, they're absent. Also, the tribe of Li Ma is basically based on more than 200 people from the lover fortress originally led by Li Ma, and the rest of the people are refugees who have been accommodated along the road, which is actually very weak.
It's just that their weapons are superior to those of other tribes, and the people who come out of the lover fortress can fight habitually, and finally occupy the best territory here.
The three tribes that did not come, the main people came from the three agglomerations. These three agglomerations were large, and the largest one reached more than 300,000 people at one time at its peak.
For the couple fortress, of course, they are not convinced. If it weren't for the fact that the traverser happened to fall into the Lovers' Fortress, Yi Qianya was born in the Lovers' Fortress, so the Lovers' Fortress is relatively closely connected with the Central City, just with the strength of the Lovers' Fortress itself, how can it compare with them!
Now, the son of the original family of the Lovers Fortress actually came forward to gather various tribes to celebrate his son's birthday, what kind of entertainment?
Brother Zhen didn't say anything, he went at his own pace and acted as if nothing had happened. When the time came, he drank wine with the chiefs of the tribes present. After three rounds of drinking, he began to speak.
"Brother Zhen came from afar, thanks to Mama Li and the elders, I am very grateful! Today's dog is 100 days old, Brother Zhen is happy, so I will tell the big guy about our life over there! ”
He began his narration and spoke for about an hour. Relying on the wine, he talked about the battle between the earthlings and the Jones and the subsequent war, and talked about all kinds of things in the dungeon, of course, there was no lack of bragging. After he finished speaking, Zheng Xiaojie added a little.
After the two finished speaking, everyone talked about it, and the scene was very enthusiastic. These people all escaped when the catastrophe struck and the chaos in Central City. The prosperity and wealth in the central city have also been seen by them. Whether it is the original inhabitants of Central City, or the people who were later moved into the various agglomerations of Central City by Yi Qianya, they are very satisfied with the life of Central City. Especially compared with the current living environment, not to mention the world of difference, it is also a superior judgment.
But Central City was destroyed.
They didn't expect that there was a dungeon under the destroyed Central City!
"Emperor, can there really be two million people living in the dungeon?" One tribal leader was a little incredulous: "How big should that be, is it possible?" ”
"Really!" Before Brother Zhen could answer, Zheng Xiaojie hurriedly said: "The dungeon is divided into two floors, and the total is not smaller than the central city at that time. ”
"That's more than two million people!"
"This is a little different from the Central City, where 10 million people lived in the beginning," Zheng Xiaojie explained: "Because the underground city is underground, it is a self-consistent system, and it can still be self-sufficient when it is completely closed, so there are many more production support systems in it than on the ground!" ”
"You're telling us about this today, aren't you ......" One of the tribal leaders listened without asking a question, and then asked a question.
Zheng Xiaojie looked at Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen nodded, and Zheng Xiaojie said the answer: "Yes, we want to take everyone back to the dungeon!" ”
