This bonfire meeting was not held outside because of the weather, but ingeniously lit countless fires around the pit houses where the women and children lived. There were barbecues on the fires, and as long as they were roasted, they would be sent into In the pit house.
Those who are in charge of grilling meat by the fire are Jiuyuan soldiers.
Yan Mo originally wanted the bachelors in Jiuyuan to use this bonfire meeting to show courteousness to those women, and to show the friendship of Jiuyuan people by the way, but he didn't expect that those bachelors could not bear it long ago, but he had already said the words, the bonfire The meeting was held on time.
Because they were warned in advance, most of the soldiers were relatively honest, and sent the meat to the pit room after it was roasted, and did not dare to stay longer.
The soldiers were not afraid of the cold, and laughed loudly around the fire. Some of them deliberately fought to show their stature and strength to the women and children looking out of the pit house.
People who were not interested in the women in the pit house ate meat, chatted, and teased the children around the fire.
"I don't believe that if I sleep with a few women, the tribe will really punish me!" A tall and strong warrior threw the bones aside, wiped his mouth and stood up.
"What do you want to do? Don't mess around! I only concealed what you did yesterday, and you still want to come? We don't understand what those women are saying, but the priest can't understand!" The soldier next to him pulled hold him.
"Look if she dares to go to the priest, I can't beat her to death!"
"hyena!"
"Don't stop me, I want to vent my fire! I don't have me in the blood warriors, and I don't have me in the battle for the leader. Now I don't even want to give me women. If I had known, I would..."
"Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Someone sneered, "What do you care about him? Useless guy, he can't beat others and still wants to be the leader? Want to be a blood warrior? Don't even see if you are worthy!"
"What did you say from his ancestors!" the hyena was angry.
"I said, if you have the guts, drag a woman out and show him to play in front of Bing, preferably in front of Lord Mo. Do you dare?"
"Look if I dare!"
"hyena!"
The hyena threw off the warriors who held him, rushed into the pit house, and dragged a young woman out.
Soldiers at the nearby fire booed.
The hyena became more and more proud, lifted up the leather skirt and rushed towards the woman.
The woman let out a shrill cry.
In front of another pit room, Shi already passed through the raised animal skin curtain, staring at a girl in the pit room helping to divide the meat, and licked his lips.
Dongsheng warned him: "Just look at it, don't go in, I heard that those who raped these women have been arrested in the past two days."
Shi Ji tore a piece of meat fiercely, chewed it, and swallowed it, "Why? In the past, when slaves came from the tribe, the soldiers could pick them at will, and if they picked one, they could knock it down."
"That's in Yuanji, here is Jiuyuan. The priest said that there will be no slaves in the tribe, and the basic rights of all people are the same."
"Rights? What rights? We are better off now than before, but we can't own slaves. We can't even sleep with women now. Why not..."
"Shi Ji!" Dong Sheng shouted in a low voice.
The soldier who heard the two talking next to him looked at Shi Ji.
Shi already realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly added: "I just think the tribal rules are a bit unreasonable."
"Where is it unreasonable?" Dongsheng frowned, "The tribe didn't say that you can't sleep with women, they just say you can't use force. I think the rules of the tribe are very good. If you like it, you can marry back. Two people can live a good life without having to have slaves."
"Then why are we working so hard to become stronger? In the past, soldiers at the second level could have slaves, and two at the third level. Now? I managed to get to the third level, let alone two slaves. There isn't a single person lighting the fire!" Shi Ji slightly raised his voice.
Some of the warriors who heard it also showed expressions of approval of Shi Ji's words. Shi Ji felt that he was more reasonable. Look, he was not the only one who thought so.
"If you are not satisfied, you can go back to the original world." Dongsheng's voice became cold.
"I didn't say I want to go back to the original world, I just don't understand why the leader and the priest don't let us have slaves. Look at that kid, Shi Yuan, he is clearly Shi Yuan's slave, but now he ignores Shi Yuan."
Some soldiers wanted to talk to them seeing how lively they were talking, so Dong Sheng stepped forward and said, "No one wants to be a slave, and Shi Yuan is not good to Shucao, so of course Shucao doesn't want to follow him anymore."
Shi Ji curled his lips, "No one wants to be a slave, but I don't believe that the leader and the priest really don't want to be served by slaves. Hey, have you heard? I heard that our priest was once the leader's slave. , do you think it is because of this that the tribe does not allow slaves?"
The fighter who wanted to talk to him closed his mouth, and the expressions on the faces of the fighters who heard Shi Ji's words all changed. If Shi was not their brother, they would have beaten him so hard that his parents would not have recognized him.
"So what?" Dong Sheng's face was cold. Shi was several years younger than him, so he couldn't beat him.
Shi Ji stared at the girl in the pit room, and didn't notice the changes in the expressions of the soldiers around him, nor Dong Sheng's face, and asked casually, "What's wrong?"
"Even if Master Mo was the former slave of the leader, so what? We are able to have a good life now because of Master Mo. If there is no Lord Mo, we would have died in the war with the three clans, and died in the Black Forest long ago. Li. If Lord Mo hadn’t made a rule saying that slaves are not allowed in the tribe, according to the exchange between the chief and the old priest, we would all be slaves of Jiuyuan now! If this is the case, do you still want to have your own women and slaves?”
Shi was already dumb, he looked away, and after holding back for a long time, he said: "In fact, there are rules that say that a slave can be released from slave status if he is promoted to the third level."
"Then how many slaves do you think have been promoted to third-level fighters?" There was a sudden laugh from behind the two of them.
Shi Ji was startled, and the whole person jumped up.
Dong Sheng and the other soldiers hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Master Moth Catcher."
The moth catcher nodded to Dongsheng and the others, and pressed Shi Ji's shoulder, "As a slave, you have to work every day, and you can't get enough to eat. In winter, you are more likely to be eaten. If you really become Slaves, you don’t have the time and energy to train yourself, if you want to rise to the third level, go ahead and dream.”
Shi already opened his mouth, unable to speak.
"It's not impossible to want someone to serve you. Didn't Master Mo say that in the future, you can find a helper to help you with housework, but you have to pay the helper, and helper will be a kind of job, just like our soldiers hunting and killing the enemy. Those who want to sleep with someone, as long as they are of age, they are willing to each other, and they are both single, and no one cares about you."
"But… "
"But what?" Moth Catching pushed Shiji to the ground and looked down at him.
Shi Ji gritted his teeth and forced himself out, "Wouldn't it be better to change to a slave? You don't even need to pay him, just give him food and drink. And it can also motivate soldiers to work hard to upgrade."
"You wouldn't try to level up without slaves?" Mothcatcher laughed.
"No, but..."
"You all think so?" Mothcatcher looked up and asked the other warriors.
Dongsheng was the first to shake his head, "I don't want slaves. It's good that the tribe doesn't have slaves. Master Mo must be right."
Other warriors said: "There are no slaves in the tribe, and those who come will soon become our brothers and sisters, and they will work as hard for the tribe as we do. Even if there are slaves, they may not necessarily work honestly."
"Yeah, only if they are kind to slaves, they will take it easy. Dashan is kind to mosquitoes, and big eagle is kind to Caoding. Aren't they all as good as their own people? That's no different from marrying one back home. Last time we entered Many of the people in the Black Forest are slaves, it’s not good for them, as long as they have the chance, they will want to escape, so it’s better to help them.”
Even more stubborn, "Anyway, I listen to the leader and the priest, and they will do what they say."
Catch Moth laughed and was about to speak when a series of shouts and curses suddenly came from nearby.
Everyone looked over there, many people ran over to watch, and soon the news spread.
"It's the pickets who are arresting people!"
"Someone dragged a woman out to rape her and got caught!"
"Who is that stupid?"
"It seems that there is more than one. Several women in the other pit house have been dragged out."
"The other side said they wanted to let those women eat meat with them, but... those people are too courageous!"
What happened there has not yet reached Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo.
The two sat by the biggest fire, and Yuan Zhan drove away Yan Mo's guards and disciples who wanted to come over to serve them.
"I originally wanted to get another batch of slaves from Morgan before the end of winter, but now that I think about it, my thinking is too simple." Yan Mo brought the cooled meat skewers closer to the fire to heat them up.
I used to think that as long as I told those slaves that they were free, and told them that they would no longer have to worry about the fate of being beaten, insulted, or killed, those slaves would be grateful to him and would recognize Jiuyuan. But in fact...
Children are relatively easy to coax, as long as you give them enough food and warmth, and give them some care, they will change their minds quickly.
The problem is those women, I hope that what he is doing now can warm their hearts as soon as possible.
Before those women and children did not sincerely submit to Jiuyuan, the vicious and smoldering guide only deducted ten scum points from him in the name of saving the slaves.
"Then we'll talk about it later." Yuan Zhanxin wondered if you wanted to give slaves power and slave status, how could it be so troublesome
It is difficult to manage slaves, but as long as you have big fists and scare them, and kill a few disobedient ones, they will be obedient even if they have hatred in their hearts.
Yuan Zhan didn't express his own feelings, he and his priest had fundamentally different views on many things. This is also the reason why some fighters obviously respect Mo, but still violate the tribal rules he promulgated. Because they are not used to it, and because they have already stubbornly understood it, they don't even think that they are making mistakes, let alone that they are disobeying the orders of the priests.
Seeing that the man gnawed the meat skewers almost to pieces, Yuan Zhan stretched his legs, pulled a wooden stick, and comforted the skewers while skewering the meat: "You are a priest, don't worry too much, after this time, if those If women don’t know how to behave and are disobedient, they will be beaten until they are obedient;
Seeing that Yan Mo's eyes were wrong, Yuan Zhan changed his words again: "Women are weak in force and timid, and they dare not run outside in winter. Take care of them well. After winter, they will think that Jiuyuan is good and they will not think about it anymore." I want to leave, but as long as the women are willing to settle down, they can also settle down to the minds of the male slaves in the future."
Yan Mo smiled and dropped the wooden stick, "Did you know? The fundamental difference between men and women lies in the ratio of fat to muscle. Women are naturally fatter than men in order to make it easier for them to have children. No matter how much they exercise It is very difficult to achieve the level of muscle of a man. You see, the boys in the tribe just need to exercise for a few days, and they can have muscle coverage, but it is difficult for girls.”
"What do you want to say?" Yuan Zhan frowned, "Don't make detours with me, please!"
Yan Mo looked at him, "Don't let me know that you hit a woman, unless that woman really deserves it."
Yuan Zhan sneered, "Why am I beating women? I mean, if some of the female slaves sent here are disobedient, dare to run away or refuse to work, they will be punished according to the rules of the tribe. Did you... see who beats women?" A woman? Isn’t it the new ones?”
"En." Yan Mo nodded. There are only a few hundred people in a small tribe, but there are also various problems. He doesn't care about it, it doesn't mean he doesn't know about it.
"Some fighters in the tribe will beat their own women and children, especially the fighters from your origin."
"What do you mean by Yuanji? People of the Awu tribe won't beat women and children?" Yuan Zhan was upset.
Yan Mo also snorted, "Since they were divided into different households, there really hasn't been any, just because of you!"
"Probably those women and children are disobedient." Yuan Zhan didn't think there was anything special to discuss about this kind of thing at all. Isn't it normal for soldiers to beat their own women and slaves like eating and sleeping
"That's not the case. Some fighters may be under psychological pressure. They vent their anger on their women and children when they go back. Sometimes they don't even count the number of fights. The clinic has received several women and children who were beaten to fractures. And I also heard It is said that some warriors who already have women heard that a large number of female slaves will be sent this time, and even plan to exchange the original women for other warriors, and even said that they want to send them back to the original world, so they want to exchange for new ones."
Yan Mo sneered when he said this, "You warriors in the original world probably thought that women and children were their property, beat them as they wanted, and exchanged them as they wanted, and all of them regarded tribal rules as fart."
"Do you want to add one?"
"Plus! Domestic violence is tantamount to a crime. Trafficking or transferring one's own women and children is regarded as human trafficking within the tribe, and is punishable as a felony! I will talk about this together with this incident tomorrow."
"If you want to prevent this situation, you have to improve the combat effectiveness of women. Do you want to train all those women in the future?"
"Why not train? At least teach them how to protect themselves."
Originally, Yuan Zhan was just talking casually, "...you are so troublesome."
"Master Mo, Lord Leader, something has happened!" Ding Fei ran over to send a message, and reported to the two of them in detail what happened there.
Yan Mo got up angrily, "Did you hear that? You dared to do this before drinking. In the future, the tribe will have wine making, and there will be no control. We don't need others to attack us, and we will break up first!"
"Wine? Mo, wait a minute, what kind of wine are you talking about?" Yuan Zhan jumped up and chased after him.
