“……”

The sight inside the haven is striking.

There were corpses and blood all over the place.

"It's the villagers who stayed here."

The old man appeared beside Zheng Yu somehow.

Lu Chenzhi on the side asked puzzledly, "Aren't they believers in the God of the Desert?" Kill your own people? ”

The old man shook his head.

"Not everyone believes in gods."

"Not all believers in the god of the desert are hostile to us."

"They...... You may not even know who you believe in. ”

The old man sighed.

Lu Chenzhi asked a strange question: "Huh? ”

Zheng Yu looked at the ground covered with blood and said with emotion: "God's war, whether you win or lose, it is the people who suffer. ”

"No matter who they believe in, the only purpose of ordinary people is to live well, and it really doesn't matter who their god is."

"Not all people have fanatical beliefs."

"When the god of the desert wins, they believe in the god of the desert."

"When the old gods win, they believe in the old gods."

"It's nothing more than changing the name of prayer before eating, as long as you have three meals and your wife and children are healthy, who cares who the ruler is?"

"But the emergence of the two gods has brought not only a change of faith, but also a struggle for power, and a war that is completely meaningless for ordinary people."

Lu Chenzhi understood.

The villagers who remain here in the haven are considered neutral ordinary people, and are not strictly speaking, neither followers of the new gods nor followers of the old gods.

"So, Corey can kill all the Haven villagers who don't want to go in order to ambush the pilgrim team?"

"Then why don't they leave?"

Zheng Yu asked Lu Chenzhi to look at the surrounding Gobi and said: "There are only two possibilities, one is that they are unwilling to go, and we don't know if this is the vast Gobi originally, or if the god of the desert has become like this after the appearance of the god of the desert." ”

"But where can they go without this haven with special terrain?"

"The second possibility is that they don't know whether to leave or not."

"I think it's possible to have both, that is, I don't know about the war of the two gods, and I don't want to leave my homeland where I still have roots."

"Coupled with Corey's fear that someone would tip off the pilgrimage, the result was ...... That's what it looks like. ”

“……”

"Therefore, the death of these people is ultimately due to this so-called god."

"Including the Old Gods."

Whether it is this god of the desert or the old god of pilgrimage, Zheng Yu doesn't like it.

Zheng Yu is very resistant to God itself.

Among the abysses he has experienced, including the desert god in the path of exile, and the god with prophetic power in the Holy Land, there are seven in total.

The god of hell in the abyss of Cold Street.

The yin god of the abyss of the ancestral hall.

Mother worm at the bottom of the Dark Valley.

The dead god of the apostle's island.

The god of the prison realm who created the prison death row.

None of them allowed Zheng Yu to see their divine side, but they were all the dirtiest, most greedy ugly portraits.

It is most in line with Zheng Yu's imagination of God.

High up, empty-eyed, only for their own interests, completely disregarding the life and death of ordinary people.

Whether it is the ghost village of the ancestral hall, or the atrocities in the cold street, or the Gu domain in the bottom of the dark valley that makes the same clan kill each other.

"I just don't know, is this the truest side of God, or is it just what the temple wants us to see?"

Zheng Yu complained as he walked into the depths of the haven.

The entire haven has a small footprint.

The blood and corpses on the ground filled the haven with the stench of blood and decay.

The Divine Acolyte sent some of the combatants into the haven to clean up the corpses and find resources.

Ordinary pilgrims still stay outside the haven to avoid being frightened at the sight.

Although they also knew that there had just been a large-scale battle here.

But the scene of the massacre, try to avoid letting them know.

After a search.

The first thing to discover was the water source.

The water source is groundwater, very deep wells, and the water that comes out is very turbid, and it seems that the resources are very limited.

The food is a special plant that Zheng Yu has not seen, similar to a cactus, and the meat is camel meat.

There are also two huge storage warehouses in the village, which store large quantities of dried meat and clean water, which are life-saving items in the Gobi.

"It's not nice to say, but I have to thank Corey."

It was Xu Lang who caught up with Zheng Yu who spoke.

Zheng Yu also agreed with Xu Lang's statement, "The reason why they didn't leave here is most likely for the food and water, even if they are not as hostile to us as Cory, they will not share the resources for us." ”

"I'd rather face a desert god of war than a villager who has no power to kill chickens."

Xu Lang looked at the warehouse, then at the busy believers, and said with some concern: "But we have to face the problem of how to allocate resources next." ”

Liu Hathe also frowned: "These things look like a lot, but the number of pilgrims is also large. ”

Zheng Yu said without any burden: "Our big head." ”

"In this context, the word equal distribution is not possible, and it is impossible for me to get more than 10,000 people to reach the Holy Land, but I can guarantee that the people around me, and you all, will be able to live better in the abyss than others."

"Moreover, this allocation of resources is just the right time to take a look at the thoughts of this pilgrimage leader."

Zheng Yu said expressionlessly: "If he is not willing to cooperate, or if he is not as smart as I thought, I don't mind changing the leader of the pilgrimage team." ”

Xu Lang and Liu Hahe looked at Zheng Yu and did not refute Zheng Yu's somewhat domineering thoughts.

Because they know that this is the most effective way.

In the face of a pilgrimage team of more than 10,000 people, they completely want to control the other party, and only a tough attitude and means can do it.

……

Evening.

After the haven is cleaned up.

The pilgrimage procession was gradually released into the haven.

Because the pilgrimage procession was too large to enter the haven, some of the tribesmen had to camp around the canyon.

"We can't get any good spots, but at least there's no wind here, so we should be able to get some rest."

Shaq comforted his people.

He doesn't expect to be assigned a good resting position, nor does he expect to get more resources, as long as he has a little bit to live.

Those good locations and many resources belong to those big families.

They can't be divided at all.

He just felt a little pity, "It's not easy for our clan to produce a battle god servant, but I didn't expect it to ......"

As for whether Zheng Yu is alive, Shaq is also not hopeful.

But the wife next to him smiled and said, "I think...... You can look forward to it. ”

"What to expect?"

Shaq shook his head: "Although the wind and sand did stop after he entered, I think it's a bit exaggerated to say that he did it." ”

"After all, there are times when you make a mistake."

"That's an exaggeration."

Without waiting for his wife to speak, a priest in the distance shouted to everyone, "Is there a patriarch named Shaq in the vicinity?" ”

Shaq was stunned.

He muttered, "Assign us so soon? ”

Shaq stood up and said respectfully to the priest, "My name is Shaq. ”

The god's eyes lit up, and he immediately came to Shaq.

"Shaq Patriarch?"

"Uh...... It's me. ”

"And is Patriarch Mike here too?"

A strong man next to Shaq also said in a daze, "I'm Max." ”

"That's good, you two people come with me."

"Where are you going?"

Shaq couldn't react for a while.

The priest said, "Come with me into the haven, and I'll give you a place." ”

Shaq was stunned for a moment: "In the haven? Can we get in? ”

He was actually asking, how are we qualified to enter the safe haven?

They were already at the end of the entire pilgrimage procession, and belonged to a small clan that would not take care of them even if they were left behind.

To put it bluntly, they joined the pilgrimage procession with a dead face.

If it weren't for the fact that his wife was a first-level divine servant, they might not have been able to share any supply resources.

The priest seemed to see Shaq's expression, and said with a smile, "Not only are you qualified to enter the Haven, but the location assigned to you is the best. ”

"Uh...... For...... Why? ”

Shaq stuttered a little.

He couldn't figure out why at all.

The priest saw Shaq's concern and comforted him, "Don't worry, this was arranged by the Great Patriarch." ”

"In other words, if you don't go to the best location, the other clans won't dare to go in."

Shaq: "Huh? ”
