Slaves are food, that's what the Long Snake Tribe thought many years ago when there were only a few dozen people.

At that time, they often went to catch the lonely people of other tribes, just like catching prey such as wild sheep and savage birds in the mountains and forests.

People like them are called 'cannibals', and some people say that people with this name will not be accepted by the gods.

At that time, the forest was not so humid, and the Long Snake Tribe had already developed, so the patriarch at that time was afraid that they would be rejected by the gods, so he changed the Long Snake Tribe's habit of cannibalism.

Although some people complained about the patriarch's decision at the time, after other tribes discovered the existence of the cannibals, they massacred and cleaned up the cannibals' tribes. Only then did the people of the Long Snake tribe get scared and offered their endless gratitude to the patriarch.

If the patriarch hadn't changed their habit of cannibalism, the Long Snake tribe at that time would have disappeared without a trace like other cannibal tribes.

In the beginning, the long snake tribe dealt with various poisons only out of adaptation to the environment. Walking in the forest was often bitten by snakes and insects. Only by understanding the characteristics of snakes and insects can we better treat them. .

However, the population of the Long Snake Tribe increased later, and every winter became colder, and the prey in the forest became less and less. They began to deal with various poisons more frequently, using the power of poisonous powder and sap to capture living creatures in the forest. .

The result of this is that they ate the poisonous prey, which caused some changes in their bodies, especially the women in the tribe. Their faces began to become extremely ugly, and they often had blisters on their bodies.

Men didn't change much at first, but after a long time they found that men's fertility was reduced, and even if their partners conceived a child, there was a high probability that the child would be deformed.

This was a huge blow to the men of the Long Snake Tribe, and their mentality began to gradually distort.

At this time, someone mentioned the incident of cannibalism many years ago. They felt that these strange things did not happen in the tribe when they were eating people. The current strange disease was born.

Later, the relatives of the patriarch's descendants were treated as slaves, because they wanted to atone for the evil deeds of their ancestors.

And the fate of the slaves is the same as those broken bones in the snakes outside, buried in the belly of the snake, not even the scum is left.

"Ah~" Some slaves are still breathless, just because the hunters only want to eat a certain part of his body. In order to prevent the food from spoiling and wasting, he needs to carry the missing part of his body and continue to linger on.

The shouting made the soldiers on the tree trunk turn red-eyed, and completely angered Zhongli.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the area halfway up the hillside where prey was often slaughtered was covered with snakes, while the positions on both sides were vacant.

Zhong Li quietly landed under the tree, with both hands clenched into fists between his lips, two crisp bird calls came out of his mouth.

The soldiers were brought out by Zhongli, and the code words between them can accurately know each other's meaning.

The soldiers continued to sprinkle the powder on their bodies, and then under the cover of night, they quietly lurked up the hillside along the sides where there were no snakes.

Zhongli's figure was almost completely sunk into the night, and the route that the soldiers walked was different. He was going to find the current king of the Long Snake Tribe.

At the tribal gathering, Snake Nine and his subordinates were all executed, and the leader of the Long Snake Tribe who couldn't wait for him vaguely knew that something might have happened to them.

So Snake Eleven, as the second leader after Snake Nine, took the position of leader as a matter of course, and the first thing he did when he ascended to the position of leader was to ask the Yunshui Tribe about what happened at the rally.

And although they had a little sincerity, those in power of the Long Snake Tribe were very clear about their larger intentions.

It's a pity that when they rushed to the Yunshui tribe, the other party had already disappeared, leaving no trace.

The Long Snake Tribe lost its leader, thousands of warriors, and the supplies that the tribe had worked hard for half a year, and these losses did not bring them any resources to survive the winter.

Due to various reasons, the atmosphere of the Long Snake Tribe has been very depressed recently, and the solution to the downturn is to have a meat feast to enhance the momentum of the warriors.

In the wooden shed, the woman's body was covered with blood and blood. After venting, the ugly man patted the woman's hair with satisfaction: "Clean up, I'll take you to eat meat later."

With a smile on her face, the woman responded to the man despite her weak voice: "Okay, wait for me."

The woman's attitude greatly pleased the man, and he even kindly helped the woman onto the soft animal skin cushion before turning and leaving.

The moment the man stepped out of the door, the smile on the woman's face disappeared, replaced by resentment.

She frantically rubbed her wound until blood flowed from the scabbed and broken skin, then she knelt down and hugged her legs, muttering to herself.

Zhongli heard that she called: "Brother."

Zhongli thought for a while, then showed his figure: "I can avenge you, the price is to tell me the situation in the tribe."

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then she knelt down immediately after seeing Zhong Li's outfit that she had never seen before: "I promise, I will tell you everything I know, you just need to rescue my brother."

Just a few minutes later, a few bird calls suddenly sounded in the silent night sky.

An ugly man who was handling food looked up suspiciously and looked outside: "Why are these birds singing so diligently today? Are they not afraid of snakes?"

Another man with a face full of potholes dropped his half-eaten claws and said with a smile: "Your ears are sharp, why didn't I hear you? Cook the meat quickly, lest the leader get angry again."

"That's right." The man who just spoke muttered: "In just a few days, there are already five women who died under the leader's hands. I didn't even taste those women before."

The man in the pothole continued to laugh: "I have tasted it, the one with thin skin and tender meat is delicious. The bone was smashed, and the snakes rushed to eat it after throwing it among the snakes."

"Oh, that's not what I said. Forget it, let's not talk about it."

The man in the pit didn't laugh anymore: "I know, there are not many women in the tribe. If the leader continues like this, he won't even have a baby this winter."

The two were chatting unscrupulously, and in the corner, a man with a hunched back and a scorched face, who couldn't even see his facial features clearly, was shivering like a ghost.

And the soldiers hidden halfway up the mountain heard the news from Zhongli and turned around to sneak up to the higher mountaintop.

"My lord, the city wall has already been built to a height of more than one meter. Would you like to go and have a look?" Chu Shu seriously invited Su Yao.

After working overtime day and night for five or six days, Su Yao finally got all the wood for shipbuilding, and left the rest to the carpenters. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It happened that Chu Shu came to invite, Su Yao thought about it and went to inspect the city wall.

It takes two or three hours to walk from the tribe to the checkpoint, so Su Yao simply called Yin Sama.

And Chu Shu, as the person in charge of supervising the checkpoint project, the tribe temporarily assigned him a wildebeest, and the speed of travel was much faster.

The sound of horseshoes spread far away, and everyone was used to the sound of horseshoes running fast these days, so they walked on both sides early to clear the road for wildebeests to pass.

The construction of the level is proceeding in an orderly manner. From a distance, the hundreds of meters of city wall has already taken a preliminary shape, protecting the tribe like two outstretched arms.

And the most central ones are the city gates and towers, as well as the camp where the soldiers lived and trained, and the open space reserved for other purposes.

When Su Yao was planning, he originally wanted to build a hospital in the camp, but the construction was troublesome and the utilization rate was not high.

It's better to just leave that area empty, and when there is a need, set up a tent directly on the open space. It doesn't take up space and can be moved at will, which is more convenient than a fixed hospital.

When the workers saw Su Yao's white-footed horse, they knew that their envoy was coming, and they greeted at the top of their voices: "Master envoy!"

Su Yao smiled warmly, and his attitude towards them was as gentle and polite as ever, but these people now blindly worship Su Yao, no matter what Su Yao said, they think it is right.

It takes two people to work together to build a large brick that is more than one meter long, otherwise it will be crooked if you are not careful.

The bottom of the city wall is more than six meters wide, and the original height is five meters.

When Su Yao designed it, he took into account the situation of future heightening, so there is room for the width of the bottom of the city wall.

Fortunately, the big blue bricks in the tribe have been stored for more than half a year, and they are enough for use now.

Seeing that there was no special expression on Su Yao's face, Da Shan boldly asked, "My lord envoy, are we doing well?"

Su Yao raised his eyebrows, and there was a gentle smile in his peach eyes: "You guys did a good job, better than I thought."

Dashan breathed a sigh of relief, she was too strong and too strong to do the work of embroidery at home, but she liked to do the hard work of building walls.

"That's good. We're afraid that if we don't do well, we'll delay the work that God envoys you for!"

Su Yao smiled more sincerely: "You guys have done a good job. I have sent people to kill wild pigs. I will give you extra meals tonight."

Su Yao was telling the truth. It was hard work to do bricklaying under the hot sun. From the first day of work, he made people prepare soup to quench their thirst and cool off the heat. He never interrupted him all day long. .

Today, the tribe happened to hunt a few wild pigs. Before Chu Shu came, he ordered someone to deal with them and send them to the checkpoint.

"Thank you, my lord envoy!" Everyone's emotions became even more agitated, and they worked as if they had already eaten the waste pork.

The progress of building the city wall was faster than expected, and Su Yao was slightly relieved.

At this time, the fruits of the rice fruit trees and gray cotton trees around the tribe have also entered the stage of complete maturity, and the heavy fruits are hanging on the branches, which is gratifying to look at.

The women climbed up the tree to pick the rice crackers with long hooks and bamboo baskets hanging by ropes. The shells of the ripe rice crackers are not as hard as before.

The long hook hooks the branches that cannot be reached by human hands to the front, and then carefully picks off the fruits on them and puts them in the bamboo basket. When the bamboo basket is full, the people on the tree loosen the rope tied to the bamboo basket little by little. Bamboo baskets were delivered to the tree and picked up by the waiting people.
