Chapter 61
Chapter 61
When Jie Nuo and a few people returned to the foot of the mountain with the vegetable seeds in their arms, they saw the other members of the Qingmai tribe in full swing.
"That's great." Jeno said enviously.
The people around him nodded in agreement. They are men, so they should do physical work. God knows that they have been looking for vegetables for a long time, and their eyes are almost blind.
Eleven adult men strode aggressively towards the opposite side of the priest. Under everyone's perplexed and defensive eyes, they put the seeds on the ground next to the priest, grabbed everyone's buckets, and sweated profusely.
Everyone who was robbed of the bucket: "???" Aren't you valued by Lu Chen and going to do big things?What does it mean to come back and grab our buckets?
In order to please Lu Chen, do you even have to grab watering?
At this moment, led by the sacrificial priest, more than a dozen people expressed deep malice against the eleven people headed by Jie Nuo.
Jeno and the others couldn't feel this malice, they just wanted to work.
Invisibly, the 30-person tribe was divided into two factions, one was the self-improvement faction headed by the priests, who unilaterally believed that they were not valued by Lu Chen;
In fact, this situation can be summed up in two words, that is "jealous".
At this moment, except for the people of the sacrificial faction, no one felt this undercurrent.
After the land was watered, it was the work of planting vegetables. Jie Nuo would not do this kind of work even if he was killed. He chose to bury the soil with a hoe on his shoulder.
Seeing Jeno doing this, the men who picked the seeds with him immediately snatched the hoes from the hands of the priests. Let the easy work of finding rapeseed be left to the priests. It doesn't matter if we work hard or get tired.
The sacrificial sect looked at the enthusiastic Jie Nuo and others, and their resentment was even higher: such a tacit cooperation must have been discussed in advance.
Hmph, with Lu Chen in front of you, you guys pretended to be so diligent on purpose.
The priests had no choice but to take the rapeseed and put it in the soil as required, and then waited for the Jenos to bury a thin layer of soil.
There are many people and strength, and the large land is quickly filled with crops. When night fell, Lu Chen asked everyone to go home and rest. When everyone was gone, Lin Yun urged Lu Chen: "Let's go, let's go to the Qingmai tribe."
Lu Chen nodded.
Luya will be poisoning tonight, and they made an appointment with Yueya to meet at the outskirts of Qingmai Tribe.
Before the rendezvous, Lu Chen and Lin Yun had to arrange defense work after the Qingmai Tribe had dinner.
One person and one tree enjoyed the scenery and chatted outside the tribe, quietly waiting for the members of the Qingmai tribe to finish their dinner. When everyone finished their dinner, Lu Chen walked into the tribe and called the priest and Jie Nuo away.
"Your defense work is very poor. Don't rely on the emperor crocodile. It is not your guard. Starting today, you must speed up the construction of the wall."
He looked at the open space around the Qingmai Tribe, which was very suitable for building defense and attack buildings, but this group of people did not care about the fortifications because they were protected by the Emperor Crocodile, and they were about to lose their vigilance against foreign enemies.
Lu Chen's small face was full of seriousness: "The Emperor Crocodile will leave the tribe in a month, and you who will lose your shelter will not only face the Yunshou tribe, but also wild beasts."
It is summer now, time is not slow, and winter will be in a few months. When the time is comfortable, there is not much preparation. When the cruel winter comes, hunger will fill the earth with killing.
The righteous words Lu Chen said, the priest and Jie Nuo lowered their heads in guilt, indeed, they were slack.
Guilt was written on the faces of the two men, and their eyes were filled with passion: "My lord's lesson is that we will arrange for everyone to build a fence."
The two of them half-kneeled to salute Lu Chen, and then strode back to the center of the tribe, ordering everyone who was arguing about Lu Chen's behavior alone to be quiet.
The sacrificial tone was passionate: "We are the survivors of Qingmai, God let us live, we must live wonderfully, and let those who hurt us suffer mental torture."
Everyone: "???" Why did it suddenly feel like a chicken blood?
The priest waved his hand: "First of all, everyone participates in the construction of the defense. I request that the construction of the wall be completed within five days. Now, everyone should act."
The majesty of the priest was not weakened because Lu Chen became the new leader. As soon as he finished speaking, all the people who had worked all day shouted in response.
At this moment, the blood that has been suppressed for many years is surging.
We are people favored by God, how can we live in the dark underground all the time, how can we finally see the light, but indulge in being protected?
People must be full of blood when they are alive, and our homeland must be guarded by ourselves.
This group of people got iron ore with the help of Emperor Crocodile, and they planned to use iron to make the hardest fence and sentry tower.
In the middle of the night, the foundation of the wall was laid, and the inside was filled with iron juice. When the height of the wall reached half a meter high, everyone was tired and happy to wipe their sweat, and then washed and rested under the order of the priest.
The tribe by the lake returned to silence. Lu Chen walked out from behind the dark tree with a peach blossom branch in his arms. Lin Yun teased Lu Chen: "You have the talent to be a messenger. With just a few words, you can make the priest arrange everyone to work enthusiastically. If it weren't for you I knew the truth and almost believed it."
Lu Chen shook his head: "It's not just because of the mission. If you want to survive in this world, you must always be vigilant. Under the protection of the emperor crocodile, they are about to lose their human instincts."
Lin Yun's heart ached when he heard it. Lu Chen, a seven-year-old child, must have experienced a lot of human feelings if he could say such words.
He couldn't help feeling: "If only I met you a few years earlier."
Lu Chen looked down at the peach blossom branch: "Why?"
Lin Yun smiled hippie: "This will allow you to grow up happily."
Lu Chen was speechless for a while, Lin Yun turned his eyes in doubt, and found that Lu Chen was looking sideways at a sea of stars in the sky. At this moment, Lin Yun didn't know whether the starry sky was more beautiful, or Lu Chen was more beautiful.
But what is certain is that this child feels to him as if he is an adult who has been separated by countless ages.
"..." I'm afraid that my head is not normal recently.
Throwing away unrealistic thoughts, Lin Yun focused on the main task of the system □□ Yunshou: "The fence has completed one-third of the progress, and the next step is to wait for the news from Yueya, and then we will go to Yunshou together Deal with Luya."
Lu Ya's poisoning is not considered a large-scale attack. This kind of sneak attack is not recognized by the main mission. What Lin Yun has to do is to use the poisoning incident to provoke Lu Ya into panic, so she has to send a crowd to attack the youth. The wheat tribe uses cutting weeds to eradicate roots.
During the long wait, time was lost bit by bit. At midnight, there was a low humming sound from the woods south of the sleeping Green Wheat Tribe.
"Crescent Moon is here." Lin Yun was refreshed, and Crescent Moon appeared, indicating that Lu Ya was ready to do something.
Lu Chen and Lin Yun looked into the depths of the trees together, and a white shadow rushed towards them like the wind.
The handsome Crescent Moon stopped in front of Lu Chen and spoke in a low voice in the language of wolves.
Lin Yun acted as a translator and explained to Lu Chen: "It said that Lu Ya sent two women to poison him."
These two people are Lu Ya's confidantes, and they were involved in the incident of poisoning Haiya back then.
Two women in their thirties quietly found the common kitchen of the Qingmai Tribe, smeared a thin layer of poison on the pots and pans, then poured the poison into a large wooden water tank and left in a hurry.
Not long after the poisoner left, Lu Chen and Lin Yun got up from the dark, ready to pack the poisoned items. At this moment, there was a clear sound of water from the water tank, and a green ring snake with the thickness of a thumb swam out from the bottom of the tank and moved along the tank. Climb along the outside.
"It's colorful, it's a poisonous snake." Lin Yun frowned, feeling that today's plan might change.
"The green ring snake is highly poisonous and extremely fast. It likes to lurk in places where humans live, and will attack when touched." Lu Chen explained softly.
While speaking, the snake swam into the priest's house, and Lin Yun was surprised: "It has entered, and the sacrifice is in danger."
Lu Chen had no intention of saving, but quietly stared at the priest's room.
Lin Yun was about to use his mobility to drive away the snake, when suddenly the door opened, and the priest came to the big water tank with a solemn look on his wrist with the green ring snake wrapped around his wrist.
Lin Yun wondered, didn't it mean that snakes are very poisonous and fierce?Why is it coiled on the priest's arm, looking very close?
Lin Yun suddenly remembered the plot of the original novel. The Qingmai Tribe, as the first force Lu Chen subdued, was not an ordinary mogul. This group of people had a unique ability—snake taming.
This just means that they are good at dealing with snakes, not everyone can get in touch with poisonous snakes like the priest.
The priest stared at the water tank solemnly, then knocked on the doors of everyone's rooms one by one, deliberately lowering his voice
"Get up, enemy attack."
The people of the Qingmai tribe have lived underground for the past few years, and they are used to being cautious in doing things. After hearing the words of the sacrifice, everyone got up quietly and opened the door, and came to the largest house in the tribe - the priest's house.
The house where the sacrifice was held was not lit. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lin Yun would not have believed that there were dozens of people gathered in this room for a meeting in the middle of the night.
Lin Yun sighed: "The plan can't keep up with the changes. I originally wanted to follow the plan, but now the priest has discovered Lu Ya's poisoning plan."
Through a door, Lin Yun heard the discussion in the room deliberately lowering his voice.
"Do you remember the poison that poisoned everyone four years ago?" In the house, the priest had a cold expression, and before everyone could answer, he stroked the green krait wrapped around his arm.
"Back then, the green krait was resting in the water and shed its skin after being poisoned. Now, it has shed its skin again."
"Our water source is poisoned exactly as it was four years ago."
In the Qingmai tribe, the prestige of the priest is extremely high, no one doubts his words, everyone has lived and died together for so many years, no matter what frictions there are on a daily basis, they will never make jokes about tribal affairs.
The eyes of dozens of people were burning with hatred like fire: "Catch Lu Ya and her minions, and cut them into pieces."
The priest sneered: "They will kill them all, and we are not easy to bully, Jeno, you take people back to the place where you lived before and bring back all the snakes, and tomorrow morning we will pretend to be poisoned and die, and wait for someone from the Yunshou tribe to confirm, so that they can understand Feel the pain of the poisonous heart."
