Chapter 290 Thunder Hills(1/2)
On this day, Jibei, a young mountaineer living at the foot of Thunder Hill, found a group of uninvited guests from outside and landed on Thunder Hill.
They wear brightly colored clothes.
Riding on a huge aircraft.
We started to build houses on one of the hills, no, build a temple, and a prototype was created in just a few days.
But Jibe wanted to stop them.
It is not to prevent them from building temples here, but to this place is Thunder Hills.
Because this is a place where thunderstorms often occur.
It is called "the land of Thunder Cursed".
During the spring and summer periods, there are a large number of accidents that are killed and disabled by lightning every year.
When there were fewer than tens of people.
When there are many, hundreds or thousands of casualties are injured or killed.
Every village living in this hilly area has families whose relatives died due to lightning strikes, and can also find lucky people who have not died of lightning strikes. Some lucky people have been hit by lightning several times, and even more than a dozen times, but they have been lucky enough to die. Such people will be called the Son of Thunder God, but they are a very small number.
But since that is the case, in Thunder Hills with so many thunderstorms and disasters, why are there still many villagers who choose to live and settle here regardless of the danger?
Can't survive anymore.
The heavy taxes of the kingdom.
Oppression of the nobles.
I can't survive outside at all, so I can only migrate to the Thunder Hills, reclaim the less fertile land, and then hold on to each other and help each other, so I can barely survive.
Of course, the kingdom's army also sent to conquer their "unrestrained people" who did not pay taxes, but in a thunderstorm, coupled with the conductive effect of metal armor, a drop of lightning can knock down a large area and suffer heavy casualties.
The kingdom army had to give up the conquest and retreated in a panic.
Under the protection of nature, the mountain people in Thunder Hills have reproduction and resurgence from generation to generation, even if they have to be accompanied by thunderstorms and disasters.
But at the end of January, the uninvited guests who suddenly landed on the top of the mountain, as if they were preparing to settle here, attracted the attention and vigilance of many mountain people.
What are they doing here?
Is it to conquer and enslave them and other unruly mountain people? Or to sow their faith in this remote mountain area - some mountain people who believe in Thunder God are speculating like this. After all, spreading faith is very common in this world.
The only thing that is difficult to understand is why the prosperous and wealthy place is not to go to, so why is it aimed at such a poor place?
And the young villager Jibei is actually a monitor sent by the village. What do you want to do when observing those uninvited guests?
But these sneaky figures of mountain people watching nearby can be hidden from Winnie's eyes?
But instead of sending someone to deal with these trivial threats, she had a headache.
Half a month.
It has been in this hilly area for half a month.
The Temple of Light has only laid a foundation, and only a half of the large amount of supplies on the cargo spacecraft have been transported.
Moreover, the cargo spacecraft will not stay here forever. If they stay for three months or at most, they must go back. They have a lot of other things to do and cannot be spent here for a long time.
But Winnie estimated that although she controlled the God of War mecha and acted as an excavator and transporter. According to the suggestion, she also purchased a large amount of steel bars and cement materials in advance in the space ring in her hand. There were 900 people in the missionary team, and 100 people were sword energy masters, and 20 of them were earth-based mages, which could greatly accelerate infrastructure construction.
In addition to engineering mechas, God of War mechas and other equipment, more than fifty units.
A mere temple of light has not been built in minutes?
However, the missionary team members do not want to live in a bad environment. They must pursue comfort and warmth. At least they need high-end decoration. Each person has a separate bedroom. All aspects of the configuration cannot be worse than the configuration of the prosperity defense line.
Let the smart assistant in the magic phone scan the surrounding terrain and then design it.
As a result, the Temple of Light covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres, with a castle-style structure, with more than 3,000 rooms, and even an underground winemaking room and treasure house.
Although Winnie felt it was very inappropriate.
But the magnificent and magnificent 3D shocking effect projected by the mobile phone camera, Winnie admitted that she was moved and decided to choose a high-end one.
And this is also conducive to absorbing believers to join.
But the price of choosing high-end equipment is that the construction period of the Temple of Light will take at least half a year - even if their work efficiency is very high.
Wait until the temple is completed.
Then start preaching from the surrounding area.
Go and persuade the people to join.
All kinds of things have to be delayed, and I missed the best opportunity to enter "before the spring sowing" - on the "Divine Light Cult" exchange platform of the magic mobile phone, there has been a team that has successfully absorbed tens of thousands of believers by giving free food to the poor.
And they are slow, which may lead to slow down.
It's simply a difficult situation.
That morning, Winnie, who felt a little unfavorable start and was in a bad mood, glanced at Jibei, a mountain man hiding behind a short tree.
"Come here, come here!"
Winnie waved to him: "Don't hide, you are talking about you, come to me."
"Oh, yes!"
Jibei walked up to her obediently and looked at her with trepidation.
"Would you like to do it if you have a job?"
Winnie said to the thin and short young mountaineer: "Five kilograms of grain every day, no, ten kilograms of grain, do you want to do it when you have lunch?"
"Spring plowing is coming soon, I have my own land to plant."
Jibei was very alert. The reward of ten kilograms of food per day did make him moved, but he was even more afraid that this was a scam. He might have done his job but he would not get anything.
"You don't want to do such good treatment? Can you grow ten kilograms of grain per day when you farm for your own home?"
Winnie frowned and showed an unhappy look.
"No, no~"
Jibei shook his head, fearing that he would offend this woman with a faint sense of power, so he had to explain: "You can't work on this mountain. Once you encounter bad weather, thunderstorms will appear and you will easily be hit by lightning. Many people in my village have been struck by lightning on the mountain..."
It took a moment, Jibe explained and told Vini the reason why it was called Thunder Hill.
Winnie's face changed!
All the team members were immediately stopped working, put down their work, called them up, and held a meeting.
"We chose the wrong place. It is not a good development base. Although there are several kingdoms and empires with a large population, it is a thunder hill. Thunderstorms often occur. Many mountain people around are killed every year. We are building temples on the mountain, which is simply a death sentence..."
Winnie said with a serious face.
The team members were suddenly in an uproar, and their faces changed drastically.
"Thunderstorms often occur, what should I do?"
"It's over, can you move to another place and change to a development base now?"
"I said from the beginning that this place is not very good. The hills are not steep. There are three empires and one kingdom around. Why is there no country that establishes rule here? Now that the reason has been found, it is actually a Jedi here. We have chosen a dangerous and broken place."
"Captain Guan, we plan to give up this stronghold and want to change to another place, okay?" Some team members told the cargo spacecraft captain Guan Yunfeng.
"no!"
Guan Yunfeng refused decisively: "You chose this place yourself. If you are not satisfied with it, change it. If you are not satisfied with the next place, do you still want to change it? Moreover, most of the materials have been transported out of the cargo hold, and half of the building materials have been used up... I will not send you another trip. You either overcome the difficulties or transfer them to a new stronghold by yourself. I have no obligation to help you find a perfect stronghold."
His inhumane attitude made the missionary team members wail.
“The problem of thunderstorms is easy to solve.”
At this time, Xiu Te said, "I asked the intelligent assistant Xiaozhou. The way to avoid lightning strikes is very simple. Just build four higher lightning towers around the temple to form a Faraday cage effect. In addition, install some lightning rods at the spires of several towers in the temple. The cost must be paid to solve this problem. Think about the many high-rise buildings in the New Xia Kingdom, and they are often struck by lightning, but there is nothing wrong with it, because there are lightning rods."
Xiu Te shook the magic phone in his hand. With the help of the smart assistant in this mobile phone, they solved many problems, big and small, and even made Xiu Te develop the habit of asking the smart assistant for everything.
Of course, if the solution provided by the smart assistant is not at ease enough, you can also call a special service number. No matter what difficulties you encounter during the missionary process, you can consult an expert.
Now that Sult said this, Winnie also picked up her cell phone, opened the service phone number, and consulted an expert.
"As such a simple question, it is enough to ask the smart assistant. It is okay to build a lightning tower and install a lightning rod. Don't ask me to confirm."
The expert on the phone said impatiently.
"Wife, we don't have to move. It would be a pity to give up if we give up. It would be a small difficulty of thunderstorm. Moreover, if the mountain people around us see it, they will regard it as a miracle and are more willing to believe in us. No, believe in the God of the Goth." Shute leaned over to Vini and said.
"Yes, what Sout said is reasonable."
"Thunderstorms are a disaster for the indigenous mountain people, but we easily dealt with them. We will definitely respect the gods and have a better missionary effect."
"Turn your disadvantages into advantages and settle here will become a better choice."
The team members nodded in agreement.
"That's OK."
Winnie looked at her husband Sout deeply, and thought to herself that something was wrong. She was so popular by this guy. Her prestige was much weakened and she could not be suppressed.
It seems that when you encounter problems, you must develop the habit of asking smart assistants. You cannot hold meetings when you encounter problems, which will give someone a chance to show off.
