Chapter 45: Humans on the Prairie
"Ah......h All go out to sell sheep, Chuck Jr., Zach, Radford, your new shareholders are also with Biden and them, set off in the morning, all go to sell sheep, be sure to ...... Ahh
Sleeping on the four-story watchtower, Ziggy has been sneezing since he was replaced by the archer Jack from the watchtower, and I don't know if he has a cold, so Aunt Mary hurriedly cooks Ziggy a bowl of hot soup. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Therefore, if a man wants to be cruel to himself, there is always a price, look, sneezing is the price, and Ziggy will no longer pretend to be forced in the future.
Siegy drank hot soup, wrapped himself in a blanket, and sneezed as he called a meeting of all the co-op shareholders, and now there were no military buildings in the entire Grizzly Village, no walls, no archer towers.
Relying on Biden alone, they and Ziggy themselves want to fight against the raiding of the orcs, and the day that the sheep are in their hands is one more day of danger of being snatched, so the sooner they sell out of those sheep, the better.
The advantage of this is that after selling the sheep as quickly as possible, those sheep will no longer be a burden to Siggy when he retreats, and Ziggy is now short of money and time, this method can buy Siegy a little time, and when the money is earned, he can go all out to build military buildings such as walls and archer towers, and then keep the sheep traded with the Hegus.
Ziggy sneezed and finished his work, then went back to sleep.
With the exception of Jack the archer and Broadbent the shield swordsman, all of Zigger's men, including Aunt Mary and Dwayne Johnson, the minotaur slave Dwayne Johnson, and all the shareholders of the cooperative, sold their sheep, each carrying three to five sheep to various towns near Grizzly Village.
None of these people are professional shepherds, and it's good to be able to take three sheep to their destination.
When everyone was gone, Ziggy drank the hot soup, covered himself with the quilt, and slept until the afternoon.
"Don't worry, don't worry, say one by one!" As soon as he woke up, Ziggy put on his clothes and walked out the door, and saw a strange scene, a large group of grizzly villagers gathered around the makeshift sheepfold for some reason, and even Daddy Jack was in the crowd, desperately trying to squeeze in.
Due to the lack of manpower, all the shareholders of the cooperative were dispatched, and there were still more than 100 sheep left in the temporary sheepfold, and these people were gathered outside the sheepfold, and Zige thought that these villagers wanted to coax the sheep!
Robbing is still there?
That's the property of the cooperative! You can't let them rob it! In an instant, Ziggy's sneezing is all right, it's all money, whoever robs Zig's money Zig is in a hurry!
Pulling away from the crowd at once, Ziggy realized that something was not quite right!
The villagers surrounding the temporary sheepfold showed no signs of looting, but instead had tears in their eyes.
What's going on?
Before Ziggy could react, he felt his sleeve jerk twice.
Ziggy looked back, and oh oh, why was Daddy Chuck in tears?
"Village Chief, you help me, you help me, I helped you a lot when you came here, right? That person was rescued by you, you go and ask him if he knows anything about my Elvira. ”
Daddy Chuck spoke incoherently, and Sieg listened for a while before he remembered that the problem was the shepherd given to him by the Werewolf Orc tribe Hegus.
This shepherd may be regarded as one of the few people who returned to human society alive from the hands of the steppe werewolf orcs.
Since the steppe orcs began to raid human villages and towns, the humans who did not have time to run were often captured by the orcs, and the rest of the people either moved the whole village to the south, or they were separated from their wives and families, and were forced to settle in other villages that had not been harassed by the steppe orcs.
About one-third of the villagers in Grizzly Bear Village were relocated from other villages that were destroyed by the steppe orcs, and many of their relatives and friends have no news, some of their mothers were snatched by the steppe orcs, and some of their husbands were taken captive by the steppe orcs.
Today, I don't know who started it, chatting with this shepherd who was given to Zige by the steppe orcs, and found that he had been used as a slave by the steppe orcs for more than ten years, so he began to ask him about the whereabouts of his relatives.
With one, there was a second, and soon the shepherd was surrounded by a large crowd of villagers.
So there was this scene that Ziggy saw.
This human who was given to Zig by the Ministry of Hegus, Zig once asked him a few words, his name is Kirton, he was only ten years old when he was taken from the village by the steppe orcs to be a slave, and now more than twenty years have passed, and the ten-year-old human boy has become a shepherd slave with a face full of vicissitudes in middle age.
Codon, who is accustomed to living a slave life, regards Ziggy as another master, although Ziggy is also a human, but Kirton, who has been used as a slave since he was a child, still conscientiously manages the sheep for Ziggy.
"Kirton! Kirton! Come here!" Ziggy didn't have to squeeze into the crowd, he shouted Kirton's name right next to Chuck's father, and Kirton ran to Ziggy, who had only been in Grizzly Village for a day, and the slave's mind had not yet changed.
This made Ziggy look straight and shake his head, he was very happy about the virtue of the Minotaur slave Dwayne Johnson, but Kirton, who is also a human, was like this, and Ziggy couldn't accept it.
But now is not the time to correct, so many people are surrounding Kirton, don't they just want to get the news of their relatives from his mouth?
The biggest problem is that Kirton seems to know the whereabouts of a female villager, according to him, the father of this female villager of Grizzly Village is now a slave to the werewolf orcs in a marriage tribe of the Hegus tribe, which is the werewolf orc tribe that Kapushkin's daughter is going to marry.
The female villagers of this grizzly bear village are the outsiders who moved from the destroyed villages in the north, and when they first moved in, they had a miserable life, and they barely married a bachelor from the grizzly bear village to settle down.
Fortunately, with this example, a large number of Grizzly Village villagers who had relatives separated from the raids of the steppe orcs all wanted to ask about the whereabouts of their relatives from Kirton's mouth, and they surrounded Kirton in the middle of the three layers inside and three layers outside.
If it weren't for Ziggy shouting like this, he really wouldn't have been able to see Kirton.
When the village chief came, many villagers naturally couldn't surround Kirton too much, in fact, Kirton was also very confused by this group of people's questions, in fact, he was just a shepherd slave of the orc tribe, and it was just a coincidence that he could know the news of the female villager.
"Kirton, shut up your sheepfold and come with me. Ziggy did not hesitate to borrow the power of the village chief, and ordered Kirton to follow him back to the village hall, everyone was waiting outside, there were too many people to get it, and a group of villagers watched with their eyes open, closed the door, and called Daddy Chuck in.
"Kirton, I didn't call you in for any other purpose, like them, Daddy Chuck has a daughter who married into Beihe Village more than twenty years ago, and there is no news yet, he just wants to ask you, do you know a woman named Alvira in the orc tribe, and she should be in her forties by now...... This is Daddy Chuck, he is the village elder of this village, and if you live here in the future, you will inevitably deal with Daddy Chuck. ”
Ziggy didn't talk much nonsense with Kirton, and directly told Kirton about Chuck's father, and in order to make Kirton work hard to remember, he also deliberately raised Chuck's father's value.
After Ziggy finished speaking, he glanced at Daddy Chuck, he could see Daddy Chuck's eyes full of anticipation, if there was news, it meant that the people of Elvira were at least alive, which was also what Daddy Chuck expected to hear, there was hope in life.
"No......" Kirton shook his head without hesitation, and then continued: "I haven't heard of Beihe Village in the Hegus Ministry, those werewolves often trade us like commodities, sometimes everyone gets together, they will say where they come from, I remember there is no Beihe Village. ”
Kirton said a little confused, what does the werewolf often trade them like commodities and what does it have to do with Beihe Village?
Ziggy didn't understand it at first, but after a while, it dawned on him that Kirton meant that he had always been a slave of the Hegus Ministry, some slaves were bought by the werewolves of the Hegus Ministry, and some slaves were sold, and the mobility of the slaves was quite large, and the human slaves would chat when they lived together, and when they chatted, they would say which village they were captured from, and Kirton had never heard of a human slave saying that he originally lived in Beihe Village.
Obviously, when Daddy Chuck heard this, his eyes immediately dimmed.
"Are there a lot of human slaves in the werewolf tribe?" Ziggy was intrigued by what Kirton said later, as if the rumor that the steppe orcs had captured humans back to eat them was not so true, but more that they were captured back as slaves.
"Hmm...... There were a lot, but there were more minotaurs and half-sheep slaves, and we lived with them most of the time. This Kirton didn't know if it was because he had been kept in captivity by the prairie orcs for too long, his brain was not very flexible, and he was a little incompatible when he spoke, but Ziggy could still understand what he was trying to say.
The so-called lowly tribe and slaves actually mean the same thing, the werewolf tribe orc tribe does not know how to graze, they all rely on robbery to make a living, at first they robbed other grassland orc tribes, such as the minotaur orc tribe and the half-sheep tribe orc tribe.
Werewolf orc robbery is a kind of glory, grazing and farming as a manifestation of incompetent race, werewolf orcs do not produce, the stolen cattle, sheep and livestock must be raised, for the steppe minotaur orcs and half-sheep orcs these docile orc races, this has become their disaster.
When a werewolf orc tribe attacks a tribe, they take the entire tribe back, turn the property of these docile steppe orcs into theirs, and turn these docile steppe orcs into their slaves.
The werewolf orcs robbed the minotaur orcs and the half-sheep orcs, and the centaur orc tribe was more fierce and did not dare to touch it, so they began to rob the humans in the south.
Originally, many werewolf tribes were still fighting with the steppe centaur tribes, and it seemed that the harvest of robbing humans was so big, they didn't care about the centaur orcs, and they flocked to the south of the grassland to rob the humans of the Holy Odin Empire.
Robbing human towns, werewolf orcs also followed the old method, robbing everything, and people robbed it back as slaves.
The humans who were robbed as slaves were discovered by the wolf cavalry as soon as they escaped, the grassland was so big, as far as the eye could see, there was nowhere to hide, there were werewolf tribes everywhere, even if you escaped from one werewolf orc tribe, you could be caught by another werewolf orc tribe.
