Chapter 44 Cooperation

Seeing the arrival of a large number of herds, the people living in the herds came out to watch. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Most of them are children, women and old people, and there are only two men in the prime of life, each of them, without any decoration, wearing leather clothes, noisy, looking at Long Teng and the others, talking to each other, whispering something.

Long Teng and his party are from a foreign land, and after these days, although they have a little understanding of the rules of this place, they know far from enough. At this time, the hermit had already left, and Long Teng had no choice but to call the four hunters to his side and ask, "Do you understand the rules here?" “

The four hunters are all natives of this grassland, and they certainly know more about the rules of the grassland than Long Teng and the others. One of the hunters, who seemed to be the person in charge of the flat camp, arranged for the captain here, replied: "My lord, the little one understands a little, I don't know what the adults command?"

Long Teng thought to himself: "It's much easier to do it if someone understands, it's much better than touching the elephant blindly." In case of a taboo on the grassland, it will be more than worth the loss. Long Teng thought for a while and asked, "According to the rules of the grassland, we want to live here, what do we need to do?"

The captain of the hunter replied: "My lord, the easiest way is to find the person in charge here, or the most prestigious person in the community, and negotiate, as long as it is not a feud or a foreign race, the people here generally will not reject outsiders." “

Long Teng said: "In this case, then you can take me over and discuss with the person in charge here, or the most prestigious person, to see if you can live here." “

The captain of the hunters replied, "Please follow me." "Long Teng told people to wait here and wait for the results. And he, led by the captain of the hunters, came to the crowd watching them.

The captain of the hunter said loudly: "Fellow villagers, I don't know which one counts, please come out and answer, my lord, I have something to discuss with him." After speaking, he pointed at the dragon with his hand.

In the crowd, an old man walked out, with deep eyes, and said to Long Teng, who was standing behind the captain of the hunter, "The person in charge takes people out hunting, if there is anything, you can talk to me." “

Long Teng hurriedly walked a few steps, came to the old man, gave a slight salute, and said with a smile: "Senior, junior wants to live for a while again, I don't know if it is possible." "Long Teng, because of what he has seen recently, are all seniors who have cultivated to a high level, and they are easy to say, and the old man is also called 'senior'.

The old man was stunned for a moment, seeing that Long Teng and the others were dressed luxuriously (compared to them), and spoke so politely, he also returned the salute, and then said: "We welcome friends from afar, you can join, of course, but I don't know where you come from and why you live here." “

Long Teng pointed to the high mountain in the distance and said, "We were invited by the hermit of Fuxian to come here, because the mountain residence is unchanged, so we disturb your life. Long Teng didn't want to tell his origins, so he directly moved out the Fuxian hermit, but he didn't know if they knew the Fuxian hermit.

After hearing this, the old man didn't ask much, obviously he knew the hermit of Fuxian, and said more kindly: "Since we are friends of the hermit of Fuxian, then we are more welcome, and I will arrange it." “

Long Teng saw that the other party agreed, and after thanking him a thousand times, with the help of the people arranged by the old man, he drove the herd into the fence, found a vacant lot near the herd, and began to set up a tent, and the old man also called people to help. After the tent was set up, the more Long Teng looked, the more awkward he felt, and he couldn't see anything wrong for a while.

At this time, Long Qifeng walked up to Long Teng's side and said with a smile: "Hussar General, these two tents are so gorgeous when they are placed here." At first glance, it was a rich man, as if he was shocked by the beggars' camp. After being reminded by Long Qifeng, Long Teng suddenly understood why he felt awkward when he saw the tent, it turned out to be because of this.

Long Teng found the four hunters and asked, "Can these tents be separated, our two tents are too good and too big." “

The captain of the hunter asked incomprehensibly: "My lord, the size of the tent reflects the strength of the owner of the tent, why did you dismantle it?"

Long Teng said: "You just do what I say, I like that." “

The captain of the hunters didn't say anything more, gathered his men, and split the tent in two. Some of the things that were missing, the locals, helped to get some.

Looking at the newly erected tent, although it felt new, it was not very prominent, Long Teng nodded with satisfaction, and said to the helper: "Trouble everyone." “

The captain of the hunter said, "Don't dare, as long as the adults like it." Long Teng nodded, and at the same time called people to move the messy belongings and tools to a tent and place them, and divided the largest tent to Mei Lan Zhuju and four people to live in, and the other two tents, Long Teng and Long Yue lived in one, and Long Qifeng and Long Qixing lived in one.

At this time, Long Qixing, who was standing beside Long Teng, asked, "Hussar General, why did you dismantle the alley, I felt good just now." “

Long Teng shook his head and said: "We are here, it is a completely unfamiliar environment, or hidden in the crowd, low-key, it is safer, so as not to show off in the forest." When the time comes, the gains outweigh the losses. “

Long Qixing said with a smile: "It's still the hussar general who thinks thoughtfully. “

Long Teng looked at the time, because of a new toss, everyone was tired, and it was almost time to eat, Long Teng left the helper, slaughtered a livestock, and invited everyone to eat together. During the banquet, the old man cautiously asked, "My lord, I wonder if you are grazing with us?"

Long Teng replied: "Since we are here, everything can be done according to the rules here, why should the old man ask such a question?"

The old man replied, "Your Excellency has too many livestock, and it is too much to suffer with us, so this is why I ask this question." “

Long Teng asked, "Old man, can you tell me about your living conditions?"

The old man said: "Our community, a total of 28 households, the total number of livestock is only 100 heads, compared to adults, it is indeed a lot less, we here, hunting as the main source of livelihood, but the quality of life, depends on luck." Long Teng suddenly understood why the Fuxian hermit wanted to dominate these belongings, and originally wanted this group to live a stable life.

Long Teng continued to ask, "Then let's graze together, what are the requirements?"

The old man said: "If they are combined, the herds of adults will be collectively owned, and everyone will take turns grazing, and the wealth will be distributed collectively, and the meat obtained from hunting will be the private property of each family." “

Long Teng thought for a while and said, "Old man, can you do this, my livestock will be handed over to you, but what if we participate in the distribution and not participate in the rotational grazing?"

The old man said: "Yes, but we have taken too much advantage, after all, the income from grazing is fixed, and hunting, it depends on personal luck." “

Long Teng said: "The old man doesn't have to take it to heart, just promise the condition that I don't get for nothing." After discussing this matter, Long Teng and the old man began to talk about the life of the grassland, rules and so on. The new things that the old man said made Long Teng happy.

After everyone dispersed, Long Teng told everyone about the results of the discussion with the old man, and Long Qifeng said: "Although we have suffered losses, we are much freer, and besides, we will not graze." “

Early the next morning, the task of the four hunters had been completed, and they proposed to leave, but Long Teng did not stop him, and said: "The four of you have worked hard all the way, I promised you, after sending us here, there will be heavy thanks, please wait for a while." Then tell Long Qifeng to fetch something.

The four hunters said, "The villain doesn't dare. But he didn't leave, but looked at Long Qifeng, not knowing what reward the adults would give him.

Long Teng saw it in his eyes and knew in his heart that although they said 'don't dare', they still wanted to get something. At this time, Long Qifeng had already returned, took four wolf skins, and handed them to the four people, one for each person.

The four of them took the wolf skin, and their faces were very happy. Said, "Thank you, sir." Then he got on the Flying Shadow and hurried away.

After the four hunters left, Long Qifeng said: "Hussar general, they have helped us so much, they have endured so much hardship, and they have given four wolf skins, is there less?"

Long Teng said: "I asked the elders in the community yesterday, and they said that giving wolf skins is the best gift on the grassland, especially the skin of the wolf king, which is very precious. ”

Long Qixing said: "Isn't it just a few wolf skins, what's so precious." ”

Long Teng said: "The effect of wolf skin against the cold is very prominent, and more importantly, the wolves here are not so easy to kill. “

"I see, along the way, they always have someone to take care of the wolf skins. Everyone smiled.

Long Teng called Mei Lan Zhuju four people to guard at home, and he Long Yue four people, to find the hermit of Fuxian, when going up the mountain, Long Yue is the most relaxed, Long Teng is second, and Long Qifeng and Long Qixing are more difficult, the four of them climb and stop, until noon, before reaching the top.

On the top of the mountain, Long Teng looked around, the area here is not very large, but the repair is very neat, a three-room hut built with bamboo, located in the middle of the mountaintop, around the hut, planted with some strange flowers and plants. The window of the bamboo house is open, and the hermit of Fuxian is sitting in the bamboo house, and there is a girl standing behind her, with a serious face and a proud face, dressed in white, with long hair draped behind her shoulders, very neat, and her eyes are looking at Long Teng and the others.

When the hermit saw Long Teng and the others, he asked them to come in and do it, and asked, "Are the following things all arranged?" Long Teng nodded and said the matter again, especially the matter of grazing with the herdsmen.

After hearing this, the hermit said, "Then thank you to the young master for fulfilling my wish." ”

Long Teng said: "Don't dare to bother the seniors to say the word 'thanks', it's all what the juniors should do, I don't know the seniors, what do you want to tell us today?"

The hermit said: "Young master, I still have something to do in the afternoon, you go back first, remember, don't be late tomorrow." Long Teng and the others sighed helplessly, but they knew that it was their own fault, and after all, they would have a chance in the future, so they left the Fuxian hermit and went down the mountain.

After the four of Long Teng left, the woman in white standing behind the Fuxian hermit said, "Master, I think these four people are average in cultivation, why are they so courteous?"

The hermit said: "The stakes are very high, you don't have to know about it, let's practice the sword." ”

The woman in white didn't say much, left the hermit of Fuxian, and also went down the mountain. Seeing the woman in white going up, the Fuxian hermit shook his head helplessly.
