Eight hundred and fortieth chapters eat the bitter fruit

Finally, the old village chief made a decision and asked the whole village to mobilize. The men went to log and hunt, and the women went to seam and repair or cook.%

He himself contacted the head of another village, hoping to obtain some material assistance from the other party.

Of course, the old village chief did not have much expectations for this. After all, the other village was not even as good as their village before it was affected. Who knows what it would become after the disaster... Even the whole village died in the severe cold natural disaster.

The snow on the mountain melts very slowly, and at least half of the leg can be buried with one foot. In this case, even logging is barely enough, but dragging the wood back will save much effort.

It’s just that there is no stone and cement provided by Adrick. If you build a house with just wood, there will be problems in many aspects...

In addition, many villagers have been attacked by hungry beasts and have even died because of this. It seems that leaving the village at this time is not a wise choice.

After all, one of the two people who were responsible for logging and transportation was a magician close to the middle level, and the other was a centaur warrior with a strength equivalent to the second-turn magic swordsman. What's more, there were a series of items from Adrick Academy, and ordinary beasts were really not their opponents.

Food is becoming increasingly scarce, and people's food has also begun to turn from thick oatmeal porridge and white bread into porridge with almost no rice grains and bran cakes that were originally only used to feed livestock... Moreover, both porridge and bran cakes are only a small portion, so they are not full at all.

Just when the old village chief felt that he was already in a desperate situation, the village he contacted finally responded.

The other party happily brought some stones and some food.

"How come there are so many things in your village?"

The old village chief twisted his beard and asked in surprise the coachman who sent the village to transport stones.

"Because there is a magician from Adrick Academy who is helping us."

The straightforward man from another small village rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly: "Although we feel a little guilty, if it weren't for their help, we might not be able to survive for a day. We would have completely disappeared like the village my grandfather had been in before..."

"They rebuilt the house for us, and it looked uniform and beautiful. They gave us a lot of food and taught us how to get other food during this period. They brought a lot of cotton jackets so that our poor families who had no money to buy cotton jackets could also wear brand new clothes. They even invented sleds... It's the thing behind me. If there is a sled, it's very convenient to transport things in places where the snow has not melted."

Looking at the man with respect for Adrick Academy on his face, the old village chief hesitated for a moment and then asked.

"So. Are there any people like businessmen who go to your village and say bad things about the magicians of Adrick Academy?"

"Ahhh. I forgot if you don't say it."

The expression on the man's face changed and he seemed to be extremely angry: "There are indeed a few gangsters who came to whine, saying that the previous natural disaster was caused by those magicians... But those gangsters were beaten away by the people in our village."

"Fight, beat it away?"

The old village chief looked surprised.

For many small villages, traders are one of the few lifelines, and they often bring many rare daily necessities. Therefore, ordinary wild villages do not dare to offend merchants, for fear that the reputation of their village will deteriorate and traders will no longer come.

What's more, the current environment is so harsh that it is really incredible that the small village dares to drive the merchant away...

"Yes, there is nothing worthy of the plan of the magicians in our village. The magicians will help us purely out of kindness, but those mischiefs don't want to see our village gradually getting better, and they also make trouble saying that the magicians are wrong. The lives of the whole village are saved by the magicians, how can we let that guy fart!"

The man seemed to be unable to say anything, and even gestured with his hands and feet: "So everyone beat the dogs and drove them out of the village."

"But in this way, what should I do if there is no merchant going to your village in the future?"

The old village chief asked immediately.

"After hearing about this, the magicians and men of Adrick Academy decided to let their caravans come around our village when they pass by this nearby and bring some daily necessities. Compared with those slick and cheating merchants, we certainly believe in the caravans of the magicians more!"

The man said proudly with his chest outstretched, "The Magician also said that as long as we have qualified children in our village, we can go to Adrick to learn magic!"

Hearing this, the old village chief's expression finally faded.

Until now, he realized how stupid he was.

The people in my village were not firm in their will. After receiving the favors of those magicians, they believed the rumors and made unforgivable actions... I was unable to stop them as soon as possible, and even wanted to wait and see if I could get more benefits...

The magician was not an official sent by the town, and there was no room for bargaining.

They are mysterious and noble.

In fact, many people in the village have never seen a magician in their lifetime.

People often have awe of magicians.

It’s just this time that the magicians and men at Adrick Academy were too approachable and gave them the illusion that they were not facing the kind of existence that could challenge the lord at any time, but ordinary people, so they did this unforgivable behavior, angering the magicians.

Although those businessmen who spread rumors are not good things, the reason why the magicians left is more disappointed with what the villagers did.

He obviously paid so much for the villagers, but he did not get any reward. Instead, he gained malice just because of some rumors...

If they could insist on believing in the magicians like that village, they might be able to smile and rebuild their homes together, instead of making meaningless struggles like walking dead in a heavy atmosphere.

Everything comes from their own ignorance, their own ignorance and their own short-sightedness.
