my cube kingdom

Chapter 408 Situation of the settlement
However, Wang Jianguo also discovered a very strange phenomenon.

That is, these cube people living inside the wall did not gather together to form a large gathering place to survive.

Instead, it is scattered into many parts and survives in the form of scattered small villages.

Looking into the distance, Wang Jianguo could see many scattered small villages on the plain.

"Theoretically speaking, facing such a severe external environment, the fellow Cube people living here should integrate into a large group to survive, but why do they still survive in a small village?"

The soldiers were puzzled, and Wang Jianguo was even more puzzled.

But at this moment, the young little soldier brought an older middle-aged square man to the wall.

Wang Jianguo also gave up his analysis of the living environment of the Cube people here, and began to observe the middle-aged man in front of him.

As expected, this middle-aged man with an unshaven beard and yellow skin should be the village chief that the little soldier mentioned.

"Hello, I am the village head of this area."

Sure enough, the middle-aged man took the initiative to reveal his identity.

"The area outside the wall where you are located is managed by our village, so those of you who come here in this area are also received by our village."

He was a little confused, but Wang Jianguo was able to confirm one thing.

The square people in this area should implement a responsibility system, and each village allocates an area to deal with related matters.

"It's not easy to say more here, please come with me!"

The village chiefs directly invited field army soldiers in plain clothes to their villages.

Wang Jianguo did not refuse either, and readily accepted.

In this way, under the guidance of the village chief, they arrived and entered the first village they encountered here.

The appearance of the village is also completely different from what Wang Jianguo and the others imagined.

There is no wooden structure in the whole village, all stone houses.

There are about [-] stone houses, and these stone houses are all three-story cuboid buildings.

And the part of the gap between the stone houses and the stone houses is connected by a stone wall, which makes the whole village look more like a small fortress.

A small village that combines life, production, and defense.

It was the first time that Wang Jianguo and his soldiers had seen such a peculiar complex of buildings.

His evaluation of this is: "It is of great reference value, and it is worth learning and learning from."

Originally thought that there were only 80 to [-] people in this village at most, but they didn't expect the real number to exceed their estimate again.

There are more than three hundred people in total!
"Each stone house has three floors on the ground and two floors underground, and many people live on each floor."

The village chief observed Wang Jianguo's surprise and explained slowly.

"Because the skeleton monsters would often grab fellow cubemen and throw them nearby, and would come in and throw hay bales every once in a while. The key is that as long as we hide in a strong house, they won't do anything to us."

"So as time goes by, more and more compatriots are trapped here. Each village can accommodate more people, but our side is still relatively small."

Wang Jianguo once again obtained some relevant information from the words of the village chief.

"Then how many villages are there in total here, Mr. Village Chief?"

"Twenty or so seats, the area of ​​the plain is only this big, no more can be accommodated."

The village chief answered Wang Jianguo's questions patiently, and he did not speak until Wang Jianguo stopped asking.

"My compatriots, did you come directly from outside?"

When Wang Jianguo heard this, he realized that they had been found suspicious by the village in front of them.

Although the middle-aged village chief didn't see any changes in Wang Jianguo's expression and movements, he still pointed to the field army soldiers behind him and the villagers behind him, signaling Wang Jianguo to make a comparison himself.

The warriors were well camouflaged, taking off their armor and putting on patched clothing.

The waist is straight and the pole is slightly bent downwards, the murderous eyes are also forcibly changed, and the exposed skin is also deliberately stained with some mud and other things to cover up its own health...

Just throwing a fighter into the crowd is definitely a good way to hide.

But when more than 50 fighters stayed together, the difference came out.

An indescribable positivity and tenacity set a distance from ordinary villagers, and people couldn't help but look at them.

After discovering this, Wang Jianguo was not too embarrassed, and answered "yes" quickly.

"So what's the situation outside now?"

Although he believed that the group of people in front of him had indeed broken in from the outside, rather than being abducted by skeletons, after getting a positive answer, the middle-aged village head still spoke in a hurry.

You can tell he's excited.

"Ahem...I mean how are the compatriots living outside doing?"

"We've lived here for too long. Many times we wanted to send people out, but they were stopped by those skeleton monsters in the mountains and threw them back. We couldn't get any news from outside at all."

Realizing that his words were too excited, the middle-aged village chief adjusted his emotions with a light cough twice, and explained slowly.

"Although these crying monsters don't hit us, we know that cube people and monsters are eternal enemies. Now that they do this, it must be intentional. Maybe one day this intention will disappear. We who live here It is very likely that they will all be killed by them."

"We have tried to resist this, but it was useless. They are too powerful, and they can cross the stone wall and break into our village at will."

"So the village association discussed new countermeasures, trying to send people from our side outside to contact with compatriots outside, hoping to get their help, but this also failed..."

Speaking of which, this year the village chief once again excitedly shook Wang Jianguo's hand, and then determined whether they came from outside.

Although it is still not clear why the skeleton force still does not attack the square people on this small plain, it is absolutely certain that the compatriots inside are indeed compatriots.

Wang Jianguo no longer covered up, and put on iron suits to restore the true colors of the Cube Kingdom's field army, proving their authenticity to the old village chief.

"We are indeed from beyond the mountains. We are the field army of the Cube Kingdom. We came here under the order of His Majesty the King."

"So Mr. Village Chief, what is the situation here?"

"Sorry, please wait a moment, I will inform other villages in the village federation...Xiao Zhang, take them to the meeting place of the village federation!"

"Okay, Uncle Village Chief."

The Xiao Zhang mentioned by the village chief was the little soldier Wang Jianguo and the others met on the city wall.

At this time, Xiao Zhang was looking at these field troops who had suddenly transformed from ordinary people into fighters with extremely curious eyes.

Its most direct manifestation is the big eyes fixed on the iron armor of the field army.
