Chapter 11: The Supreme Authority of the Patriarch
It just so happens that there is nothing to eat.
The eyes of the Kumabara tribe lit up when they heard this, and the eyes of the Nuwa tribe who got the answer also lit up. The patriarch of the Kumabara tribe turned around, "Everyone follow me and go dig the lake!" ”
With the precedent of the Kumabara tribe,
The labor force of other tribes was taken away as soon as it came.
those who dig the lake,
those who build dikes,
Trenching ......
Everyone even competed, and the trend of snatching people in various places prevailed.
At night, when I can't sleep, the tribesmen will also discuss.
"I feel like I haven't seen you in a winter, and the people in Nuwa City have become enthusiastic."
"Me too! They made me feel so welcome. ”
"The Nuwa tribe is in such a hurry to get these things because they are worried that the river will flood Nuwa City due to heavy rains. Anyway, our tribe is also near the river, so our tribe won't be flooded, right? ”
"Oops, how is that possible. They made dikes and flood lakes, and they couldn't flood us. ”
Is that the case?
The young clansman felt a little reasonable, but it also felt that something was wrong. But in the gradual snoring, his little-used brain also began to groggy.
Let's sleep.
The young clansmen wrapped their skins tightly and squeezed towards their companions in the spring that was not yet fully warm. I heard that the houses in Nuwa City are very well repaired, and the beds in winter are all warm by themselves.
I really envy the people of their Nuwa City......
##
In addition to flood control, people are still cultivating land, expanding soil, breeding, and hunting according to last year's habits.
Even the land period has focused on other things after the winter flood control frenzy.
Until one day is hot and dry, tiresome to the point of being tireless, there is no prey in the forest, birds are flying low, and schools of fish are floating. The normally blue sky took on an eerie yellow-green hue, and the black clouds pressed down on top of each other, making it seem like people were breathless.
A heavy rain kicked off a continuous torrential rain.
Thunder, wind, and lightning alternated between day and night, and heavy rain washed over the land, turning some of the roads that were not paved with cement into mud.
Houses outside the city have begun to leak.
The humid air never dries the clothes on my body.
Not only that, although a large number of drainage outlets were made in the city, all the greenhouses that were half-hidden underground were blistered. All the people were relocated and lived in barracks, schools, and towers.
But although the problems within the tribe have been solved, there are still a large number of people suffering outside the tribe.
Those clansmen outside Nuwa City, they live in houses that are worse than those inside Nuwa City, and now the roof is leaking. The chiefs and priests of these tribes had approached her several times, asking for help.
"No, if you want to help them, you have to let them in. This group of people is let in, what if they have bad intentions? Whether it is stealing, robbing, or killing, this is a scourge. ”
"But if you don't help them, they won't be able to get by, and they will also break in."
"Then kill those who are disobedient, and the rest will be slaves......"
A group of people are arguing because this matter has been deadlocked for a long time.
Lu Qiqi stretched out his hand to signal them to be quiet, "Don't make any noise, it's a headache for me." Kyu, how many people out there are asking for help? ”
"We counted the day before yesterday, about 897 people."
"If these 897 people were to be placed in a place, where would they be placed?"
Yu immediately understood the meaning of Lu Qiji, the city lord is so kind, even if those people outside are not good people, she will help them.
He knew that the city lord's decision would not change because they disagreed: "If you want to let them in, you must definitely separate them from our warehouses, important factories, and salt wells. In addition, they must not be allowed too close to children and pregnant women, lest they slaughter our offspring in the event of conflict.
And it was not possible to put all 900 people in, so I suggested that one or two textile factories and warehouses should be vacated, and that 200 people could be admitted to take refuge.
Try to choose children and pregnant women, who are easy to control and important to the tribe.
The first is to help these weak, and the second is to prevent people from other tribes from rioting and uniting against us at this special time.
As for the others, the body is not weak, and it doesn't matter if you get drenched in the rain.
Even if the roof is repaired in the rain, it can still be used. ”
"Well said sir."
Lu Qiqi knew that he really had two brushes, especially when he knew what the superior wanted, and he could relatively perfectly highlight a plan that the city lord was satisfied with.
Soon the children and pregnant women from other tribes were sent here.
The people were soaking wet, and some of the children and women were even sick.
"They actually put sick people in."
"We shouldn't help these bad pigs. Didn't they harm us by letting in all the sick people? ”
Primitive tribes, what everyone fears is not wild beasts, not even cold winters, but diseases. They have no other way than to survive an illness on their own. What's even more terrifying is that some diseases are enough to kill all the people of a tribe.
So when you see someone who is sick, everyone is afraid.
Their fears are not unreasonable.
The word plague, of course, knows how terrifying it is.
She immediately asked people to requisition the only place outside Nuwa City that did not leak rain, and put everyone with cold symptoms into it. Then ask Ms. Butterfly to prescribe medicine, boil soup, and get sick.
The bitter smell of herbs mingles with the smell of the earth when it rains, and many players are here to help take care of these sick people.
What about the land period?
I went to settle accounts with someone during the land period.
All the patriarchs who had begged her to take her in were arrested, and the people of these tribes were so frightened by this situation that they almost rushed up. Below, however, the ironclad army led by Ling and Fu stood in front of them like a wall, and the archers on the wall had already drawn their bows.
Raindrops the size of beans hit the metal armor.
Even the sound is terrifying.
The priests below are appeasing the warriors of their own tribe, and once the war starts, the patriarch will die, and they will not be the opponents of Nuwa City.
And the land period also knew that they didn't dare to do it.
"Do you know why I arrested your patriarch?"
She stood on a high place, her eyes cold, "Because they are guilty!" My Nuwa City is kind enough to help the weak of your tribe, but your patriarch has sent the sick with him! ”
After she finished speaking, the priest didn't dare to look up—
They did it on purpose.
"My Nuwa City has said that anyone who does something that endangers my Nuwa City will be punished with the most severe punishment."
Lu Qiqi said, motioned to the executioner below, and waved the long whip.
There was no room for bargaining, and the moment the whip fell, the supreme authority of these patriarchs was broken......
Good night~
