Chapter 53: The Invitation of the Wushan Clan
The weather in late autumn is always so comfortable, and under the soft sunshine, the fragrant breeze gently caresses Zheng Jun's face. The hair, beard and beard that had not been cut in months covered almost the entire face of the pen "Fun" www.biquge.info, but even so, the scar on the left side of his face was still faintly visible.
Through the windows in the wall, you can see the guards in action on the city wall from a distance, armed with rectangular shields and stone spears, patrolling the walls, making people feel extremely reassuring. It was a more professional and combat-ready hunter team, a semi-professional army organized with advanced military concepts far beyond the Stone Age. The history of defeating the Nine Creeks and the Minotaurs has spread their prestige to all tribes.
Nearly five months had passed since that terrible battle, and the Jiuxi tribe, which had lost its leader and most of its youth, was completely in chaos, splitting into several hostile tribes, and the neutral tribes that had once taken refuge in them were now subservient to the Ba tribe. The Ba people are now the largest tribe worthy of the name, and their strength is even stronger than before the war.
Feeling the unpredictability of the world, Zheng Jun lowered his head and continued his work. He sat at a new desk by the window, the shape of which was indistinguishable from its modern counterpart, made of mahogany and scented with new wood. Zheng Jun sat at his desk in his first mahogany chair, using a ballpoint pen to record his experiences in a notebook.
Today is the 148th day of the Ba tribe's witchcraft, the autumn harvest is almost complete, and the water canals and manure are said to be very effective, according to Luo, "Even if you don't hunt, there will be enough for everyone to eat until next autumn." "If we can have such a good harvest next year, we will be able to absorb more people, and maybe we will be able to implement the next water conservancy plan to clear up more land."
However, all the people in Luo's mouth did not include the captives, and they still relied on the previously seized livestock to feed the extra manpower. At my suggestion, the first of the Nine Creek captives to be freed from slavery had been chosen, and they were all assigned to manage other captives, and the captives who had hoped to restrain each other had seldom been in a state of antagonism lately, and were now a more reliable labor force, and they were an important part of the next step.
If you can find a vein that is easy to mine, you may be able to start trying to smelt metals, as long as you enter the era of metal, with metal nails, you can get rid of that unreliable wooden bed, and you don't have to experience the embarrassment of falling to the ground in the middle of the night.
The work of the hospital was already well carried out, and although there was still a lack of more in-depth theoretical knowledge, Blackfish was already a qualified doctor, and he had an extraordinary interest in surgery, which prompted him to grow more rapidly, far more than the other students. I've started to try to teach him words so that I can teach them more deeply. ”
Zheng Jun, who wrote here, raised his pen and shook it a few times before continuing to write.
"The last ballpoint pen is running out of ink, and this is probably my last paper note. The original ink is still easy to make, but the quality of the trial paper is very poor, and there is no way to write at all, so it can only be used to wipe the buttocks, and the future records can only be made with bamboo slips. But at least you can go to the toilet without using leaves and bamboo, which is an important step in improving your life. ”
Zheng Jun still had a lot of thoughts in his mind that needed to be recorded, and he planned to write them down as much as he could before he slowly forgot about them. But the knocking sound from the window in front of him interrupted him. Thirteen is knocking on his window one by one, still serving as the Witch's Guard, even after the war, he is still like a child, usually listless because of boredom, but he is always unwilling to let go of his position.
"I can hear you, you don't have to keep knocking. ”
Ignoring Zheng Jun's angry complaint, Thirteen's impatient words were full of irrepressible excitement.
"Quick, the great witches of the Wushan clan have invited you to be a guest! The messenger is waiting in the chief's house, so go quickly. ”
"So you can finally go out again. ”
Zheng Jun shook his head, stuck the ballpoint pen into his notebook, and stood up. He was wearing patched trousers, the last of his modern outfits, and the rest had been torn apart into threads and patches, barely guaranteeing the use of this last set of trousers.
Zheng Jun's home does not have a gate, and there is no need to install such a thing. Zheng Jun, who walked out of the house directly, slapped his hand on Thirteen's arm casually.
"Let's go, I'll take you to Yoyo Bend too. ”
As a witch, Zheng Jun has a transcendent status in the Ba tribe, and almost lives in the innermost position, and he is only a few steps away from the chief's house.
The envoy sent by the Wushan clan was also a witch, and judging from the length of the antlers on his hat, he was probably second only to several great witches. As soon as Zheng Jun came in, he stepped forward, bowed his head and saluted.
"This must be the witch of the Ba tribe, and it is my honor to meet you. ”
"How did you know me?"
Zheng Jun came in with Thirteen, and besides, he also knew what his beard looked like now, and he was a little curious about the reason why the other party could recognize him immediately.
"You are a great man, and your deeds have spread to all the tribes, and even the most powerful wild spirits will be defeated in your hospital. Your physiognomy reaches everyone's ears. ”
As a result, I didn't say anything, and I was curious about how you recognized this appearance. But it didn't matter too much, he just complained to himself in his heart.
"So, do you want me to help build a hospital?"
"Yes, of course, we were supposed to send someone to study, but in order to compete for the place to be sent, well, something unpleasant happened. So if you can go to the Wushan Clan, we will be very grateful. ”
Disseminating knowledge is in line with Zheng Jun's expectations, the current Wushan tribe and the Ba tribe are quite friendly, and in terms of strength, they do not pose a threat, which is the next force that Zheng Jun intends to absorb through influence.
Turning his head to Qi, Zheng Jun nodded.
"I can go and not worry about the hospital, Blackfish is more than capable of handling those things"
Qi also knew Zheng Jun's plan, Zheng Jun did not hide it from her, and the support of the leader was also an important guarantee for the smooth progress of the plan. Exerting more influence on the Wushan people is also very beneficial to the Ba people.
"Okay, Thirteen brings a team of hunters as your escort, and I hope you go early and return early. ”
A squad of twelve soldiers, all of whom were the most experienced. In fact, in the current environment, Zheng Jun does not need protection, he is a warrior who has experienced fighting. This group of soldiers is not so much a guard as a guard of honor for Zheng Jun, but this is conducive to Zheng Jun's greater influence in the Wu Clan, and he did not refuse.
The envoys sent by the Wushan clan also brought four hunters as escorts, a group of nearly twenty people, but the march was slower than Zheng Jun's advance alone, and after walking for a whole day, you could still see the farmland by the river.
