"Come on, come and sit here first." Wu Jiu waved to the solemn Wu Ba, patted the seat beside her and said.

"My lord?" Wu Ba was stunned when he heard the words, he had just finished making some righteous and stern remarks, and he did not expect that he would get such a response

"The two of us haven't chatted for a long time. This time, I just had a reason, so I'll talk to you." Wu Jiu said with a normal expression, assuming that she wanted to have a long talk.

Wu Ba had no choice but to sit down as he said, but said in his mouth: "If what your lord wants to say is about Rong Er, it will be difficult to convince me. I have seen everything he did with my own eyes. , This man's intentions are not righteous, and he should not be trusted by adults." Wu Ba was sitting and looking at Wu Jiu, with a very rare stubbornness in his expression, thinking that some of Rong Er's actions touched his scales. .

Wu Ba's tone was firm, but Wu Jiu didn't answer, pointing at him and said in a gentle tone: "In front of me, don't sit upright, be more casual."

Wu Ba was a little embarrassed, but seeing Wu Jiu staring at him steadily, as if he would not continue the conversation if he didn't follow suit, he had to obey obediently and changed to a more relaxed sitting posture.

No longer trying to maintain his demeanor, Wu Ba suddenly felt that the muscles and bones of his whole body were much looser. Wu Jiu sat more leisurely than him, and the two of them were very close. Wu Ba seemed to have returned to the cramped but warm hut in the dog tribe, recalling the past, the expression on his face became gentler again.

Wu Jiu saw everything in his eyes, and said in a casual tone: "You have maintained this sitting posture for the past few days, and your muscles and bones are all stiff. When you are still growing up, you can do this in front of me in the future. Don't burn yourself out."

Wu Ba couldn't help laughing when he heard Wu Jiu's old-fashioned speech, but knowing that Wu Jiu was sincerely caring, he still felt very warm.

"Has your lord visited us in the past few days?" He couldn't help asking, and he only said that when Wu Jiu went out to make an inspection one day, he saw them working. "

"That's not true." Wu Jiu smiled and shook her head in denial, "I've been busy these few days, so I haven't paid this big bill yet."

"How did your lord know?" Wu Ba wondered.

"Rong Er will report to me the movements in the tribe once a day. Everyone's situation cannot escape his eyes and ears, including your sitting posture for several days. He also said to me that in order to maintain the dignity of the person in charge, you That's why it's been extra hard, let me be more sympathetic." Wu Jiu smiled and gave a source of information that Wu Ba could never imagine.

Seeing Wu Ba whose complexion changed slightly, Wu Jiu said calmly: "Not only you, but the other seven members of the Yu clan, including Libald, Lang Yue, and several high-level soul warriors with high prestige, He pays attention to the daily movements. In addition, he will also sort out the big and interesting things that happen in the tribe every day, and tell me together. And these, I did not instruct in advance, all of them are his own Think about it and do it.”

After a short pause, looking at Wu Ba who bowed his head silently, Wu Jiu continued: "In the past few days, when you are registering all clan members, I have only one task for him, and that is to take the opportunity to sneak into the miscellaneous department. In the process of spreading rumors, he not only let the rumors spread more and more widely, but also controlled the direction of public opinion, always paid attention to the reactions of the people, and even recorded all the people who did not react much to the rumors or even questioned them. Although, he did this His motives are impure, but the list he obtained is exactly what I want. I have only explained to you the method of recording, summarizing, and classifying people, but he learned superficially through observation. With a meticulous learning ability, he is better than all of you."

Now, Wu Ba was completely quiet.

Wu Jiu looked at him, and repeated the crimes that Wu Ba had just listed in a flat tone: "You said that he is arrogant, cunning, cunning, and usually idle, but in my opinion, his daily work is complete. Yes, whether it is creating public opinion or speech-discussion-management-control, the techniques are excellent. He is my eyes and ears outside. He is qualified for this job and has done it very well. No one of you can do the work for the time being, he is a special talent that cannot be replaced by others, if not, why should I reuse an old guy who is dying." At the end, Wu Jiu shrugged helplessly.

"But he has a treacherous heart, and it's not appropriate for adults to trust him more than him." Wu Ba was silent for a long time, and finally insisted that in his eyes, Wu Jiu's personal safety is above everything else. No matter how valuable a person is, If there is a possibility of posing a threat to Wu Jiu itself, she is not worthy of trust.

Who knows, when Wu Jiu asked, she couldn't help shaking her head and chuckling, "Even you know that he is a cunning and cunning villain, so why should I be afraid?" Eighth, Wu Jiu accepted his smile, and said in a rare serious way: "I know his shortcomings, and I also understand his personality. I can predict his way of doing things in advance, and I can also avoid handing over his weaknesses. He is here with me, forever. He is an untrustworthy and usable person. Such people are not scary. What are really scary are those who hide their deep appearance and honesty. These people will never write evil thoughts on their faces. At a critical moment, you will never reveal your true colors, you will have no way to know, and you will have no way to guard against, sometimes, inadvertent negligence, but you will suffer huge losses, compared with the latter, who is more terrible?"

Seeing that Wu Ba bowed his head and began to ponder, Wu Jiu continued in a gentle tone: "Speaking of which, you don't like Rong Er so much, there must be some personal grudges."

Wu Ba was shocked when he heard the words, he raised his eyes to look at Wu Jiu and said: "My lord, what I said is not mixed with any personal grudges."

"You really don't have any selfish intentions when you speak to me, I know it." Wu Jiu said soothingly, "However, there are always personal grievances."

Wu Ba hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "In the beginning, he brought Wu Zhi and took away the food you left for us. If you and Lord Rong Xiao hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Recalling the situation that day, Wu Ba still feels cold in his heart.

"In the past few days, have you wondered that Rong Er, who betrayed others, took Rong Zhi to the stronghold, and openly shared your food, not only did I not punish him, but even the others did not resent him Him?" Wu Jiu interjected.

"Indeed, I have never understood this matter." Wu Ba nodded and said

However, Wu Jiu began to analyze it calmly: "Actually, it is not difficult to understand this matter in detail, let's start with the reason why Rong Er and the others left in the first place.

Because he ran out of food, he had no choice but to return to his original tribe to try his luck. Later, he brought back Rong Zhi and his group.

He clamored for Wuzhi to rob you of your food, who will the food be distributed to?Naturally, for all the remaining members of the Rong clan, although it is impossible to achieve fair distribution by Rong Zhi, at the very least, many people will no longer be hungry. Those members of the Rong clan will be serious vested interests, and they Their own interests are not too damaged, you say, why do they resent Rong Er? "

Seeing the shock on Wu Ba's face, as if he just thought of this point, Wu Jiu continued: "In this matter, if there is only one person who did something wrong, it is you. I heard Jun Ke said that he I have gone to you several times to discuss food, and you obviously still had enough food at that time, why didn't you give them some food?"

"But the adults said that they will only be given half of the supplies." Wu Ba murmured.

"That was on the premise that I clearly told you that you would return in seven days, but after that, the development of the matter did not proceed as I originally speculated, and you should also respond accordingly according to changes in the situation, as the saying goes Before I leave, I told you that in times of crisis, protecting yourself is the most important thing.

Jun Ke was ordered to protect you, and he is the only member of the Rong clan standing firmly by your side. You should have stood on the united front, but you kept pushing him away, causing his majesty to be damaged, and he could no longer control all the clansmen. With the food running out, he is naturally powerless to prevent other clansmen from saving themselves. Everything has a cause and effect, are you convinced? "

Wu Jiu's words made Wu Ba wake up like a dream, and he finally said with some regret: "I was wrong."

"Since you know you're wrong, you can just take it as a warning in the future." Wu Jiu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "You have to remember that you are the only ones who can sit in front of me and be taught by me like this. Whether it's Rong Er or other people in the future, when they see me, they will always bow their heads and bow their heads, kneel down and bow down, this is the essential difference between you and them, the so-called difference between closeness and estrangement, you must always remember this."

Seeing Wu Ba nodded again and again, he smiled again and said: "Besides, don't just look at one side of everything. Rong Er's temperament is certainly abominable, but there are some merits in doing things. Since you are looking at him, you might as well continue to look at him. He can Be my ears and eyes, why can't you? You have gained a lot in the past few days of recording. It is not difficult to sum up and focus on observing a few important people. When one day he is no longer irreplaceable, I'll find someone else to do this, to make you feel more at ease, why not?"

Wu Ba let out a deep breath, feeling that the little resentment buried in his heart had finally dissipated without a trace. Wu Jiu's words not only relieved him but also made him finally find his way. He raised his head and looked at Wu Jiu said seriously: "Don't worry, my lord, I know what to do."

"Not only you, but also the remaining seven people. Time waits for no one. I hope you will have enough self-awareness to grow up and become truly usable people." Wu Jiu exhorted.

Wu Ba solemnly agreed.

Seeing that the emotion between his brows had completely disappeared, Wu Jiu began to explain the rest of the work: "Now that the population has been counted, the next step is grouping. I will do this work, but I also want to hear your opinions. Opinion, how about this, you and the remaining seven people, go to discuss a group opinion together, and give it to me tomorrow."

"I will live up to my trust!" Wu Ba solemnly said, he realized that Wu Jiu's test for them had already begun.

Watching Wu Ba leave, Wu Jiu heaved a sigh of relief. These seven gray feathers were born from the same brood nest as him. They are of the same race and the same kind. As for the basic team, Wu Jiu only hoped that they would grow up as soon as possible, so that in the future, he could truly let him rest assured and entrust them with heavy responsibilities.

After solving this trivial matter, Wu Jiu carefully read the animal skin roll presented by Wu Ba, and then finally turned her gaze to the quiet and almost non-existent "slave" beside her.

At this moment, Nie Qiao, who became a blood contract slave, was no longer arrogant and rebellious at first. He lowered his head, looking dejected, as if he had lost all willpower.

Wu Jiu looked at him, and said in a casual tone: "After a few days after the grouping is completed, I will hold a meeting. In order to prove that I really have the ability to cure diseases, I will use "Ganlin" on the spot. At that time, the number of times it can be used, I'm afraid it will become less."

The snake squeezed seven inches, Wu Jiu has always been good at grasping the pain of others, and when she said something in one sentence, the gnawing cunning who was like a dead object just now suddenly looked up.

Wu Jiu ignored the resentment in his eyes, and said with an innocent face: "You told me that there are restrictions on the use of this kind of soldier talisman fragments. If you use too much, it will lose its effectiveness. You have worked so hard to come here. In order to get it, if you think about it, it is also to save people, why, this time, you are not afraid that I will use up the energy of this soldier talisman?" Wu Jiu still remembers that a few days ago, he used the soldier talisman in front of the cunning, and put a After the war slaves were lifted from the bondage of slavery, the opponents looked heartbroken.

At first, Wu Jiu thought that Tongxin had lost so many slaves, but then he realized that this was not the case. The reason why he did this was because he used that precious soldier talisman. Wu Jiu then asked about the soldier talisman In such a situation, blood contract slaves cannot lie to their masters, so Wu Jiu was able to know that the usage limit of this soldier talisman is not only a limit of once a day, but also a limit that its effectiveness will disappear if it is used too many times. In this regard, Nie Qiao's explanation is that the original body of the god is destroyed, and the fragments only retain the accumulated divine energy, but it cannot be replenished in a cycle. Therefore, once the divine energy is exhausted, the power will naturally disappear.

Although Wu Jiu felt a little regretful about this, she also felt reasonable. After all, Gan Lin's recovery ability is really too strong. In addition to trauma, even ordinary contracts, curses, and other negative effects can be eliminated. If an unlimited The use of it is contrary to common sense.

At this moment, Nie Qiao also recovered from the initial anger, he looked at Wu Jiu fixedly, and said coldly: "What do you want me to do?"

"You've seen everything I've done in the past few days, so why bother to ask?" Wu Jiu said lightly.

"If everything I do satisfies you, can you agree to give me this soldier talisman?" Nie Qiao couldn't help but ask.

"Your value determines my rewards. I have always been a person who pays attention to rewards and punishments, and I am generous enough, so everything is up to you." Wu Jiu looked at him and said with a smile.
