Xu Chen was worried that the old witch was lying on the snow and freezing to death, so he quickly asked two young aunts to come over and help the old witch up. At the same time, he ordered a group of hunters to shout at all the men and women lying on the ground, and then led a large group of people into the big house.
hospital.
Two big eagles squatted on the crossbar of the aisle, staring at the large group of people coming in with their big eyes, flapping their furry wings nervously and screaming.
Under the eaves at the end of the corridor, a large cat with colorful fur was tied, its nervous hair standing on end and purring.
The open space inside the compound was also covered with snow.
The small pond where the ducks swim is like a snow nest, and there are a few ducks scurrying around in it fighting for a few grasses. When they see a large group of people coming in, they immediately get frightened and flap their wings and get into the duck house.
Inside the chicken coop, two large bald birds were squatting in the grass nest without any reaction.
The snow on the well platform has been cleared away and looks very eye-catching.
There is a circle of houses all around, and the doors and windows are covered with straw curtains, making the entire courtyard airtight.
There was still smoke rising from the fire pit and the kitchen roof.
In the yard, there is a warm homely life, which is completely different from all other tribes.
The old witch came in tremblingly with the support of two young women. As soon as she entered the yard, her hands and feet became uncontrollable and trembled so violently that she couldn't stand at all. She broke away from the two women who were supporting her and fell to the ground again, her body arched in the snow.
in the ground.
A group of male and female prisoners came in fearfully from behind, and they also followed suit and lay all over the floor.
Xu Chen couldn't help but sigh.
It seems that it is not easy to persuade them if they are not satisfied with kneeling down.
This is good, as it saves you from worrying about their sudden rebellion.
So Xu Chen stopped caring and ordered everyone to disperse, so a group of escorting hunters cheered and dispersed, leaving all their backpacks in the yard. Those who drank water drank water, and those who took off their armor took off their armor and entered the house.
Those who were warming up went into the house to warm themselves up by the fire, and a group of children went to look through their backpacks in a noisy manner. Some women were busy packing their backpacks, and some hurriedly went inside to boil water and prepare meals to reward the men who had returned from a long absence. The whole yard instantly became lively and busy.
Xu Chen went into the house, took off his armor, put on a furry leopard skin coat, and changed into a pair of clean shoes. Ye brought him a cup of hot aphrodisiac fruit tea, and then stood under the eaves and took a few sips, feeling
The tension and fatigue all over my body disappeared instantly.
It’s better to be at home!
I want to eat, I want to drink, I have clothes to put on my hands, I have food to open my mouth, I am simply happy and boundless.
Ye stood on his left, still holding on to his clothes with his hands, and the twin little witch sisters stood on his right, each holding a tall walking stick and talking non-stop, chattering like two inexperienced people.
Simple girl.
At this moment, he was so out of breath that he had the urge to just stay at home, eat happily, and wait to die.
He finally understood this when he went out.
There were barren mountains and wild ridges everywhere, and not a single person could be seen for dozens of miles. Except for the wild beasts in the barren mountains and ridges, he didn't know how many hardships and sufferings he would have to go through before he could build the human empire he envisioned.
Why not just be a savage from a small tribe?
Although I almost ate and almost slept, it was really comfortable.
The old witch and a large group of male and female captives were still lying on the snow, worshiping this magical building devoutly.
Men, women, and children of the Ba ethnic group, as well as dozens of foreign women who stayed with the Ba ethnic group to learn spinning and weaving, all stood under the surrounding eaves and watched.
The panic and nervousness after learning the other party's identity and strength from the very beginning.
To the present calmness and indifference.
Many young women even laughed and discussed each other's dirty and worn furs and dirty and messy hair.
Compared with these foreigners, the current life of the Ba people has natural advantages.
Regardless of food, clothing, or accommodation, they are completely different from these similar people who still can't even cover their bodies with fur, and are barefoot and bare buttocks.
If civilization can be divided into levels, then the Ba people must belong to a high-level civilization now, having transcended this era and possessing a superior status and mentality.
Not to mention these hostile alien tribes hundreds of miles away, even within the tribal alliance, the Ba tribe is now the object of envy, jealousy, and fawning and imitation by the other five tribes.
The new skills they learned from the Ba people such as twisting ropes, weaving baskets, making nets, making straw sandals, using pottery, cooking food, sewing, making bows and arrows, and building tents have greatly changed the tribe's living conditions and quality of life.
The change.
Now they come to learn to spin and weave, build houses, and burn wasteland to cultivate fields.
By next year, the living environment of all tribes will undergo further earth-shaking changes like the Ba tribe, which will also shock these foreigners.
The great shaman of the Gonghuo Tribe and a group of men and women who were being watched were still confused and frightened.
Because everything the Ba people saw was beyond their understanding.
Every man and woman, including children, wears clean and tidy clothes, and their hair is neatly combed.
Especially this wide and huge courtyard.
It turns out that the Ba people all live here.
This is obviously much cleaner and more comfortable than living in a simple cave.
"Everyone get up!"
After kneeling for nearly twenty minutes, Xu Chen was worried that the old witch was really freezing, so he asked someone to help the old witch up again. At the same time, he asked Feng to take the men and women to the kiln for temporary resettlement.
The house is definitely not enough to live in, but fortunately after a large group of men studying there have left, the temporary sheds built in the kiln factory are quite free.
In addition, a large group of women who came to learn spinning and weaving have basically learned how to do it, and arrangements can be made for them to go home.
After entering and exiting, it was almost possible to settle all the prisoners.
However, as a result, the food consumed has increased several times. It is estimated that the stored food will not last long, and fishing and hunting need to be increased, and yams must be collected to supplement it.
Xu Chen didn't care how these people cried and howled after they went to the kiln.
Instead, the mother was asked to find a way to clear out an empty house to accommodate the old witch. In order to take care of her daily life, she also selected two young and flexible women from among the women who were snatched back to help serve her.
After everything was barely settled, Xu Chen called everyone in the tribe to gather in the fire pit and gave a general report on the situation of the trip.
The story of what happened is relatively simple, and the process of hunting tigers and dragons is also mentioned in one sentence. The most detailed description is about the treatment of these people and the punishment measures for the Gonghuo tribe.
After listening, Muba and a group of other women were surprised, happy, and worried at the same time.
It is certainly okay to let the captured men help build houses, but it is unacceptable for this group of women to be snatched back and stay with the Ba people forever.
Because different races live and mix together, it will inevitably destroy the blood relationship of the Ba people and cause many contradictions and conflicts, especially in the distribution of property. Many people are not happy. After all, these are properties created by the Ba people. Why should these foreigners let these foreigners
Tribesmen enjoy.
Xu Chen also knew that these things were not easy for Mu Ba and others to accept, so he told his plan.
That is to imitate the large-scale tribal structure of the Wu tribe, so that these foreign women can form a new family and come under the unified leadership of the tribe. For the time being, the Ba tribe will provide the necessary food. After the new houses are repaired, these people will be arranged into the new family.
Courtyard living life.
In order not to destroy the existing blood relationship of the Ba people, the dozen or so Uwu people who followed the little witch last time can be moved there as well, so that the compound will be relaxed and not so crowded.
In addition, Xu Chen actually did not intend to release all the foreign men who were captured. It is estimated that the Gonghuo and Qia tribes did not have all the financial resources to exchange them all, so some of them would remain with the Ba tribe.
From then on, these Wu, Gonghuo and Qia people lived together as one family, which was regarded as an internal branch of the Ba people.
In this way, the strength of the Ba tribe will reach nearly two hundred people in a short period of time, almost becoming a medium-sized tribe similar to the Cang tribe, and second only to the Wu tribe in strength.
It is said that things are easier to do when there are more people. Although it consumes a lot of money, when there are more people working, the harvest will be more.
Mother Ba and others looked at each other in shock.
Xu Chen's method of gaining strength by robbing people is too deviant and completely inconsistent with their traditional habits.
However, a group of men headed by Feng all agreed with Xu Chen's method and unanimously believed that this was the only way for the Ba people to rapidly expand their strength.
Because there are more people, you can become a larger military leader, and commanding becomes more enjoyable.
After Feng and others became generals with dozens of men this time, their hearts were so swollen that they could no longer shrink back. They once again returned to the state of having only a dozen soldiers. Their mentality was very unbalanced. They urgently needed more subordinates to listen to their commands.
For the first time, men and women had major differences in their stance on the matter.
Although Muba is the clan leader, she has never seen much of the world and cannot judge whether this matter is good or bad.
But this matter was planned and arranged by Xu Chen, and her thoughts and opinions were fully considered, so she had no way to object.
In fact, Xu Chen is now the real talker of the tribe. She has become accustomed to listening to Xu Chen's arrangements. Therefore, after a short period of random thinking, Muba still agreed to the plan, but she still raised a very important question, that is, the new family
candidate for leader.
Xu Chen pulled back his hair. He really hadn't thought about this matter.
The men and women around the fire pit stared at each other, and then many people slowly turned their eyes to Ye who was sitting next to Xu Chen.
This family was founded by Xu Chen, so it should naturally be run by Xu Chen's closest and closest people. Moreover, according to reliable inside information, mother Ba had long wanted Xu Chen and Ye to form a new family.
Now that the right time, place and people are in place, this plan has come to fruition, and the leader of the new clan must be chosen by Ye.
