When Yan Mo thinks of wine, it's not that he wants to drink, but that he needs alcohol. Every time he treats a wound, he will habitually want to disinfect the wound, but the originally inconspicuous alcohol cotton is a delusion here.
Now that there is cotton in the tribe, he naturally thought of brewing alcohol, but if he wanted to obtain high-purity alcohol, let alone the steaming method, the raw materials alone would kill him.
He has never brewed wine, and he only has a vague impression that it is basically impossible to obtain high-purity alcohol from fruits and the like, and grain...God knows if Tu Yuanguo can make wine.
Even if Tuyuan fruit can make wine, there is not enough to eat, and it would be a pity to use it for wine making. Moreover, how to obtain high-purity alcohol after brewing, without suitable equipment, would take time to figure out.
I don't know if there is water and wine in Sancheng or other big tribes
Grain, tea, bamboo, metal... He really wants to visit other big tribes, raw materials and craftsmen are what he urgently needs.
However, the foundation of the tribe is not stable, how should we go
So many things can happen when he is still in the tribe. After he leaves for a while and returns, maybe Jiuyuan will return to the original development mode.
Even in the modern society of his original world, slavery cannot be completely abolished. Because of the instinct of animals to eat the strong, most human beings will instinctively want to override the weak, although after education, the nature of most people can be suppressed , but not everyone can be satisfied with the status quo. There are always some people who like to trample on people's dignity and trample people under their feet in order to satisfy their twisted desires as superiors.
What's more, he is now in a primitive society where the strong are respected.
Capturing slaves and raising slaves is their social form, and they have become accustomed to it, and they are proud of it and make a living.
It is easy to lead a group of slaves to engage in a slave uprising or emancipation, but to force a group of slave owners to change their minds so that they no longer raise slaves is the same as telling beasts not to eat meat.
Why should I do such a thankless thing
Without a guide!
But even if there is no guide, can he really watch slave abuse, rape, cannibalism and other things happen before his eyes without being indifferent
If you don't want your eyes to suffer, and you don't want to test your scum again and again, it's better to curb the possibility of these things from happening at the source.
difficult? is difficult.
But he is the priest of Jiuyuan, the boss of this tribe, who dare not listen to him, then go to death!
"Don't wait for tomorrow, gather everyone together and solve it at once tonight!" Yan Mo ordered to Dahe.
"Yes. My lord, does everyone include those women and children?"
"certainly."
"But they have no clothes..."
"Let Sayun and the others take out all the stored furs of the tribe, first wrap them temporarily, let them gather together, spread hay on the ground, and light a fire around them, as much as they can light, the tribe does not lack these firewood !"
"yes."
"Dahe, I mean everyone, everyone who is at home, on patrol, watching the city gate, and on the lookout tonight, call out!" Lan Die, who happened to go to dig coal and pick up people by the river, has also returned , the tribe is very well-organized now, and there is only one who goes out fiercely.
"Ah, but..."
"Dahe, go call for someone." Yuan Zhan, who was next to him, said, excluding the people who had just arrived during this period, there were only more than 300 official members of the tribe, and the soldiers who patrolled, looked out and guarded the city gate were only on guard and Deterrent effect, if someone really hits the door, they will not have much effect.
The outer city has a moat and a third of the outer city wall has been built, so there is no need to worry about wild beasts attacking at night.
Yuanji would not be so stupid as to suddenly attack them.
It was impossible for the dwarves to organize an attack in just a few hours, and attacking Jiuyuan did not make much sense to them.
Yan Mo also thought of these things before he dared to call everyone together. Taking advantage of the small number of people now, if you don't speak clearly, when there are thousands of people in the tribe in the future, you have to pick a special time to concentrate.
It will take some time to gather everyone together, Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan have already arrived at the scene of the incident.
Everyone saluted the two of them.
Bing asked his subordinates to suppress the offenders, and walked up to Yan Mo, "Master Mo, a total of five people were arrested tonight for violating the tribal rules and using force on the newcomers."
"You've done a good job. Strip those people off."
The cold voice made everyone who heard it tremble.
The same sentence popped up in everyone's mind: Sir Priest is angry!
Bing turned his head, and waved his opponent, "Didn't you hear Master Mo's order? Strip them off!"
"Yes!" The members of the picket team who arrested the fighters were all specially selected strong fighters, whose force value was higher than that of ordinary fighters. As soon as the order was issued here, they stripped the five offenders into pigs.
The hyena among the five shouted: "I don't accept it! My lord priest, why did you do this to us? What did we do wrong?"
"Shut up!" Bing slapped the hyena on the face.
The hyena struggled frantically. He didn't dare to scold the priest, so he threw all his swear words at the ice.
Everyone looked at Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan.
Yan Mo didn't seem to hear the cry of the hyena, while Yuan Zhan asked someone to fetch a thick fur and spread it on the stone chair he just made.
"Mu, sit down." Yuan Zhan also built a half-circle earth wall around to block the wind.
Yan Mo turned and stepped up the steps, and sat down on the stone chair covered with thick fur.
Ding Fei led several guards and lit several braziers and placed them around the stone chair.
Wu Chen and Ye Xing led the children to set up pillars and light torches to ensure that people around could see the area clearly.
Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan didn't speak, and no one below dared to intercede.
The hyena barked and cursed at first, but after a while his facial muscles stiffened from the cold. He wanted to run to keep warm, but he was suppressed to death.
The other four were pale and shivering from the cold and dared not beg for mercy, let alone shout like hyenas.
Sweeping snow, laying straw, lighting a fire, guiding people in, without special instructions from Yan Mo, all the responsible persons and warrior leaders have already done all these things.
The soldiers gathered the fastest, and the leaders at all levels stood in front of the team.
Other non-combatants and more than two hundred savages were concentrated in another area.
The more than 1,300 newcomers stood in the middle.
And in the open space between the Nine Elements people and the first two people were the five people who were about to freeze.
When people gathered, there were still people talking, and many people were asking what happened, but soon, the voices turned into whispers, and all the whispers disappeared at the end, and everyone was intimidated by the dignified and stern atmosphere, No one dared to speak again, and if an ignorant child cried out, his mouth would be immediately covered by an adult.
The soldiers from the watchtower came last, and everyone was waiting for them, but no one dared to complain, didn't the leader and the priest also wait
Everyone saw the five people who were pulled out to punish them, but no one sympathized with them, and no one thought it was bad.
Don't say that the priest just asked them to strip them naked, even if the priest said to roast them all, they would only help share the food, and they would never think that the priest's approach was wrong.
Yan Mo looked at the more than 1,800 people below with no expression on his face.
No one dared to meet his gaze, and everyone who caught his gaze lowered their heads hastily.
Stupid and smart, honest and cunning, calm and crazy. This is the primitive people of today.
You think they are easy to fool, they have their own ideas.
You think they are smart, but they are so stupid and stubborn that you want to slap them twice.
Yuan Zhan saw that everyone had arrived, pointed to the five people below, and asked, "Do you know why they were arrested?"
No one answered.
Yuan Zhan didn't need anyone to answer, "Because they violated the tribal rules. Bing, according to the tribal rules, how should rape and wounding be punished?"
Bing stepped forward, "Fifty whips, one finger chopped off!"
"implement!"
"yes!"
"No!" The hyena let out a miserable howl.
"wait."
No one expected that the priest would stop at this moment, and Yuan Zhan turned his head to look at him in a little surprise.
Yan Mo didn't look at Yuan Zhan, but looked at the five people below, "Do you feel dissatisfied with the tribe punishing you?"
The other four didn't dare to answer. The hyena didn't want to lose his finger, so he nodded desperately.
"Well, tell me the reasons for your dissatisfaction. If you can convince me, you won't have to be punished again."
The hyena and the other four were ecstatic, the hyena trembled its lips, and said loudly: "They are only, only female slaves, we are warriors, why can't we..."
"Clothes them and pours them hot soup."
The five people almost shed tears, and they were not afraid of whipping them, but if they continued to freeze like this, they would freeze to death.
Their bodies were wrapped in cotton clothes scorched by the fire, and someone helped them rub their hands and feet, and several children served hot soup.
The five of them managed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Many people think that the priest is still too kind. Look, they can't bear it after being frozen for a while.
Yuan Zhan turned his eyes around Yan Mo, revealing a speechless smile.
Yan Mo said to the following five people: "I remember that I have clearly stated that the people who came this time and in the future are not slaves of Jiuyuan. Although they need to use labor in exchange for freedom, their rights and obligations are the same as those of ordinary people. The Jiuyuan people are the same, that is to say, they are all the people of Jiuyuan, just like you. Didn’t you hear that?”
Four of them shook their heads immediately, and the hyena had to say, "We heard you."
"Now that you've heard it all, tell me, why do you still think they are slaves? Who told you they were slaves?"
The five were speechless.
"If you can't say anything to argue, then let the adjudication team..."
"Wait!" The hyena probably felt that the young priest above was more talkative and kinder than the original old priest, thinking that even if he was punished, he would only be punished with fifty lashes and one finger, so he might as well take this opportunity to say whatever he wanted to say out.
"Lord Mo, I, I still don't accept it! Even if they are not slaves, don't you bring them here just for us soldiers? Then why can't we sleep with them?"
"Idiot! Because you use force!" Bing cursed contemptuously without waiting for Yan Mo to answer.
"So what's the matter with using force on them? We used to be like this! Ice you used to sleep with slaves, you didn't care whether they wanted to or not! Now you're just pretending, what a good thing you are!" The hound cursed back confidently.
Staring icily at the hyena.
Hyenas are not afraid of priests, but ice. As long as it came from the original world, who doesn't know how vicious Bing is, even the boss battle was killed by him! I really can't understand how the leader would allow such a person to be the leader of the picket team.
Bing saw that the hyena was scared, so he said: "Yuanji is Yuanji, Jiuyuan is Jiuyuan, I am from Jiuyuan now, of course I have to abide by Jiuyuan's rules, if you think Yuanji is good, why do you follow us?" Came to Jiuyuan?"
Because I thought Kuhara would give me a better life! Because I am from the Sirang tribe! No matter how stupid the hyena was, he knew that he couldn't shout these words. He lowered his head and tried to use his brain.
Have! The hyena suddenly raised its head, "Master Mo, you can ask everyone, ask other people, and ask them if they want slaves! Even, even in reality, the chiefs and priests have to discuss with the warriors when making decisions, and only most people can It will be carried out with consent.”
"Don't be disrespectful to the priest!" Bing kicked the hyena.
The hyena's eyes shone with hatred, but he didn't yell loudly this time, he just stared at the priest above, waiting for his reply.
Yan Mo raised the corners of his lips, "Okay, then I'll ask everyone, do you want slaves?"
Yan Mo couldn't see the expressions of the people below. The night and the refraction of fire and snow made their expressions dark and inexplicable.
"Don't be afraid, I won't punish you. Just like what the warrior said, any decisions made by the tribe must be approved and agreed by everyone. Tonight, we will go through the rules of the tribe, and the decision will be made tonight. It will not change without very specific reasons and circumstances."
Yuan Zhan saw that everyone was moving, and asked on behalf of everyone: "How do we decide?"
Yan Mo replied: "The minority obeys the majority. Tribal rules are very important. For this reason, more than 80% of the people must agree before the rules can be passed. Do you agree with this?"
No one objected.
But the hyena shouted again at this time: "The new ones can't be counted, they can't even speak the language! And there are too many of them!"
Yan Mo sneered in his heart, this guy is a bit quick-witted, but how could he be so stupid as to dare to openly violate the tribal rules? Probably this person never took the tribal rules seriously.
Maybe not just this person, maybe most people in the tribe still maintain the original customary rules in their hearts. They haven't violated Jiuyuan's rules at present, but it's just unnecessary for the time being.
"Then it will be divided into two parts, the original people from Jiuyuan and the newcomers. Wu Chen, you and Sa Yu are responsible for the statistics of the newcomers. Ye Xing, you are responsible for the statistics of the old people."
"Yes." The three teenage boys immediately went to the slate and charcoal pencils.
Many people think it is troublesome for the priest to do this. They really don't mind that they will listen to whatever the priest says, but at the same time they are a little excited. If they can really change the tribal rules tonight, can they have slaves? and more benefits
The hyena was a little complacent. Even if he really accepted the punishment tonight, as long as the rules of the tribe really changed, who would dare to look down on him in the tribe in the future? He is the one who brings great benefits to all fighters!
And he is so brave and considerate of the tribal people, the leader and the priest will have some ideas, right? Will it be his turn to activate the Divine Blood Warrior next time
For the convenience of statistics, all non-combat personnel in Jiuyuan stood on the side of Jiuyuan fighters.
Most of the new women and children can't understand the common language, but they can understand Yan Mo's words. They have hatred, confusion, and hope for the future in their hearts. They also faintly feel the young priest above him. It seems to be on their side.
Hearing that their opinions will also be counted surprised them and made them a little bit at a loss.
The method of expressing opinions is very simple, just show your hands and vote.
Because the children are still immature, the statistics here are the opinions of more than 800 adult women and less than 200 adult savages.
Yan Mo saw that he was almost ready, and nodded to Dahe.
Dahe had a loud voice, so he stood in front of the steps and recited the nine rules and three orders of the tribe.
"Have you heard everything clearly? Article 1, is there anyone who disagrees with the adjudication group system?" Yan Mo asked the old man first.
No hands were raised, and the first rule passed.
Yan Mo asked the newcomers again, in order to let them understand, he specially explained the first rule in detail.
Newcomers don't think there is anything wrong with this rule. Even if they have ideas in their hearts, they are afraid to express any opinions because they are newcomers.
Yan Mo deliberately put the controversial second article of monogamy behind, and put forward the third to ninth articles first.
The family concept, fair trade, criminal punishment, education, support and reward system from Articles 3 to 9 were adopted unanimously without dispute.
Three orders, refrain from killing, refrain from waste, refrain from betrayal, and no one objected.
Finally the main event came.
"Article 2, close relatives are not allowed to intermarry, only sixteen years old and above are allowed to marry, and monogamy. Do you have any different opinions? For example, those in Sayun's family have been approved by the tribe, and they are not included in it. Sayun, you guys Don't think about your own situation, just express whether you support the tribal rule."
Sa Yun smiled, although she and her two husbands are one-to-many, they both support the rules decided by the priest.
This time, many of the old people began to hesitate whether to raise their hands.
Yan Mo lightly touched Yuan Zhan.
Yuan Zhan understood, and said to the following: "If you disagree, raise your hand, and you can still eat you!"
The old people suddenly felt relieved, and those who didn't want to be monogamous raised their hands boldly, while those who didn't dare to raise their hands saw so many people raised their hands, so they let go of their courage and raised their hands.
Ye Xing was more witty. He was afraid that one person would not be enough, so he asked the warrior leader to help him count together, counting each level separately, which was very fast.
Seeing that more than half of the people disagreed with monogamy, Yan Mo didn't say how to solve it, but nodded to show that he knew. Then have those who disagree all stand aside.
Hearing the priest asked them to come out and stand in another place, those who raised their hands speculated in their hearts, but seeing that there was no special expression in the battle of the leader, they thought that the leader would not be willing to only have a woman, would he? Thinking about it this way, I boldly stood up.
Yan Mo asked the newcomers again, perhaps because women accounted for a large proportion, and the savages were still a little ignorant, so not many people objected. As for the individual savages who raised their hands in opposition, Yan Mo asked Wu Chen to invite them out and let them stand on the side of the old people who expressed their opposition.
Seeing Yan Mo's actions, the old man murmured in his heart, not knowing what the priest was going to do.
"Although the following item has not been written into the tribal rules, I have made it clear to everyone that I will ask you again tonight. If you agree, it will also be written into the basic rules of the tribe. That is, the Jiuyuan tribe does not allow slaves. Those who disagree, just stand up and stand there." Yan Mo casually pointed to a place.
People stood up one after another, and Ye Xing asked those who raised their hands among those who opposed monogamy to also stand there.
"There is another one, which is a supplement to the crime of injury and the crime of buying and selling human beings. In the tribe, husbands and wives, brothers, family members, etc. cause injuries due to violence, etc. Once discovered, they will be punished as the crime of injury! And some people in the tribe transfer their wives , Husband, children, brothers and sisters, etc., regardless of whether they are willing or not, they will be punished as a crime of trafficking in human beings! Regarding these two points, those who disagree will stand on that side."
Some people don't understand the content of these two articles. Yuan Zhan added: "Soldiers who beat their own women and children, or adults in their families who beat their children or disciples, causing injury are all crimes of injury! Some soldiers do not want their partners Giving it away or sharing it with other people is also against tribal rules."
There was a commotion from below, and there was a lot of discussion among the people. Some people thought that these two additions were good, while others thought it was unnecessary.
Yan Mo let them quarrel, and waited for them to calm down, before saying again: "Have you thought about it? Those who disagree with adding these two items also stand up and stand over there."
The crowd changed again.
So far, the entire tribe, no matter new or old, has been divided into two obvious groups.
Those who opposed monogamy, those who wanted to own slaves, and those who opposed the new additions were cleverly separated by Ye Xing with a brazier. The number of these people added up was quite large, even more than half of Jiuyuan's original population.
These people were very uneasy at first, but after seeing so many of them, they were not afraid anymore.
Yan Mo pointed to the hyena and other five people, and ordered: "Give them all to me!"
Hyena and the other five already had smiles on their faces. Seeing that such a person supported Hyena's opinion, they thought they could escape punishment this time, but they didn't expect that the priest had just gone through all the rules and turned around to punish them again.
The hyena screamed in panic. The other four also begged for mercy. It's cold and warm, warm and cold again, it's better to be frozen at the beginning, and then I don't feel it anymore, and now I've finally warmed up and will be stripped naked, let alone the pain!
Yan Mo shouted disgustedly: "Gag him!"
Ice grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into the hyena's mouth.
Five people were stripped naked again.
"Members of the jury come forward."
Members of the jury stepped out from the crowd.
"Do you think they are guilty?"
"Yes." The members of the adjudication team had no objection to this point.
"And do you all agree to punish them?"
"yes."
"Very well, Bing, execute the punishment!"
"Yes!" Bing had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
The people below began to panic at the priest's change of face, especially those separated by the brazier.
Yan Mo has no intention of explaining or persuading them. His ideas are different, and now he may not be able to gain the understanding of these primitive people, so...
"If you haven't forgotten, then you should still remember that if you want to join Jiuyuan, you must pass the test to become a real Jiuyuan person."
The faces of the separated people changed drastically.
"People who disagree with Jiuyuan's rules don't need to become Jiuyuan people, you!" Yan Mo pointed to the separated crowd, "You can get out. I will throw these five people out after they are executed!"
"Lord Mo!" The separated people shouted one after another, and some directly knelt down.
Yan Mo didn't mean to soften his heart at all, and he didn't care whether there were high-level warrior leaders in it, "I'll give you an hour to go home and pack your things. I allow you to take away your personal property. If your family members want to leave with you , you can also take them all away. After an hour, I will let the ice drive you away, no matter what you kill! Get out of here!"
"No! Sir Mo! We were wrong! I agree! I agree with the rules of the tribe! Sir!"
"The leader! The leader!"
The separated people knelt down one by one, until finally no one stood up.
