I have a shelter

Chapter 24 Hidden dangers beneath peace

During dinner, George asked the old blacksmith to bring over a few reliable young men in the village. He planned to discuss some things with these people and assign tomorrow's work.

Before they came, George sat in the tavern and slowly flipped through the scroll.

After the people entered the shelter, a [Gathering] area appeared in the shelter. According to the scroll, when the shelter's grace reaches [300], a special caravan will visit.

A person can gather up to 3 points of grace. Believers are just the initial standard, and a believer can only gather 1 point of grace. So the gathering is still far away and cannot save the current food crisis.

In addition, the disinfection of the territory is also a problem.

Today he wanted to order all residents to drink boiled water and take a bath with hot water regularly. But after thinking about it, he found that if this was the case, there would not be enough firewood.

And if you go up the mountain to chop wood, you have to go through the dangerous fog - a lot of wood will be needed to build a camp in the future.

After 26 believers appeared in the territory, the grace of God also increased. From 0 to [26/27], and with the increase of grace, the fog around the shelter seemed to be dispelled a little.

But even if all the more than 100 people in the territory became believers, it was impossible to establish a safe area for everyone to harvest wood and food safely.

So it is impossible to rely on the power of the shelter to get shelter. What really makes this place a shelter is the people here.

And he found a problem among these villagers today.

These more than 100 people seemed to be divided into seven or eight groups. And the food in their hands was very uneven. Some people only had a little food, while some people had a lot. If everyone doesn't help tomorrow, someone will starve.

But the key problem is that the relationship between these villagers is not so harmonious.

George noticed that in the village, the strongest group of people seemed to be those lazy people and ruffians.

They had no food in their hands and were very lazy. After everyone came here today, they all started to work, but these people were just wandering around. Moreover, these people have no food in hand, and it seems that they usually eat the villagers.

Obviously, these people are lazy people and rogues in the village. And because they are locals, the original residents in the village are all relatives of them. So they often unite to bully those outsiders.

These lazy people and rogues seem to be very cunning and slippery. And they often fool the villagers and dominate the public opinion in the village to gain benefits from it.

What's more interesting is that the villagers not only turn a blind eye to these "bullyings", but also are very happy to see them. And sometimes they will join the lazy people's team-he found these things in the village. When he was packing up, those lazy people stole a lot of things. Many villagers turned a blind eye.

After hiding the stolen goods, facing the outsider who was looking everywhere, an aunt who witnessed everything pointed at the outsider on the street and cursed him, and then other villagers came out to beat the outsider.

After the aunt finished scolding, she continued to pack up her things, and deliberately poured the garbage and dirty water in front of the outsiders' door, and then spat.

These lazy guys are obviously bad apples. But the villagers have been helping the evil.

‘They are all not fuel-efficient lamps’ George knew that he had underestimated the bottom residents of this world before. And the suffering people may not necessarily gather together for warmth.

These outsiders seemed to have been enduring all the time. Not only that, they have been trying to please the local villagers-when they were cleaning up the shelter, they helped the local villagers do a lot of work, but everyone not only looked as if it was their due, but also deliberately did not return the tools left by the outsiders to them.

George touched his chin and thought slowly.

No matter how these villagers behaved, George always believed that people were greedy creatures.

The better you treat people, the more people will ask you for.

And it's as it should be.

Today he talked about a lot of great truths, and even used doctrines to fool them to help each other, saying that the gods like hardworking and generous people. But the effect was minimal.

If you want these villagers to truly unite as one and share their precious food with others, it is not enough to just talk about the truth.

When praying outside just now, someone asked himself whether the omniscient and omnipotent God of Shelter had prepared enough food for this holy land to save these poor people.

These words were drowned in the miscellaneous prayers. George looked at the wheat waiting to be harvested in the fog outside and said nothing.

He did not mention the barn.

George looked at the scroll, the barn full of corpses and rotten food, the fog around the shelter, the hundred or so [easily incited false believers] in the house, and the God of Shelter who seemed not to intend to help the villagers and himself. At this time, he could not help but feel that he was holding a bad card in his hand.

This god and this lord are good gods and good people. Facing the good gods and good people, just take what you want. They still lack true reverence for the God of Shelter and themselves.

In this situation, it is difficult to make them listen to me and go into the dangerous fog to fight the zombies.

Unless they fear me more than the zombies.

Unless there is a demon to put pressure on them.

Unless the god of protection gets angry

So, the rotten grain in the barn became reasonable, the ignorant people became sensible, and the stubborn ones were all killed as a warning to the monkeys.

He can use law enforcement to catch fish.

However, before this fishing law enforcement, he decided to trust these people once.

If everyone can be united after his persuasion tonight, then it will be perfect.

If there are too many disobedient people, he will let these people understand something.

The door was opened at this time, and the old blacksmith Duke walked in with a few young men. They looked very excited. Not only did they bring five wolf skins to the lord, but they also took the initiative to greet the followers in the house, and called them brothers like believers.

The followers smiled awkwardly. And George's mouth twitched. The face paint on the followers had not been wiped off yet. He wondered if the old blacksmith and his men would still call these bandits brothers when they recognized them.

Putting aside his own thoughts, George looked up at the old blacksmith and his men.

The old blacksmith brought four people, all of whom were young and strong men with some appeal in the village.

After a simple conversation, George got to know these five people a little bit - these five people were usually small leaders in the village, and they could lead a group of people by example.

Similarly, they were also the most proactive and prepared people in the village.

In a cheerful and exciting atmosphere, the five old blacksmiths and George and the other eight gathered together, like a group of brothers and sisters, and started dinner.

George used the last food in the tavern to entertain them, and even took out the black bread from the bottom box and baked it for a while.

Before the meal, George led everyone to pray and briefly explained the doctrine.

The people were not clergymen, not even devout believers, so they naturally did not know all the complicated doctrines. Now it is a new era, and it is normal to have some new content in the doctrine. So no one noticed the things he added, such as labor, joint construction, and sharing weal and woe. Instead, they thought it was very reasonable.

This is a little bit of preparation. When these new prayers and doctrines become a habit and are passed on, they will guide the people to correct values ​​in the future.

After the prayer, George tore the hot black bread into pieces and put them into the steaming wolf meat and wild vegetable soup. While eating, he asked about various situations.

At the same time, he began to prepare for the first step of his plan.
