Chapter 291 Still Water Flows Deep
Chapter 291 Still Water Flows Deep
Scar remembered the name of the Eagle leader, but did not give him more preferential treatment.
It was already a great privilege to let them set foot here and let them leave alive.
Scar didn't get what he wanted from them, as he'd expected, and it didn't disappoint him much.These eagle people will pass back the sights they saw with their eyes, and will also show the attitude of his Scar Nightmare to those nobles who are not greedy enough to make decisions and are equally inadequate. How much strength is Sasheer now, what do they see? Of course not all, but this is enough.
It didn’t take much time for Scar to see these eagle people. After they were taken away by the quick-eyed but quiet boy, Scar met two more people and learned about the current construction progress of the original place. After a simple lunch, he left here.After spending a lot of time on the road, he took the "secretary" and came to a wilderness far away from the tribe's original residence together with the gray wolf Keir.
The scythes of plowing had never been here, and the vast undulating land was covered with lush weeds and shrubs, and the Skassu went all the way, some thorns hanging from their thick arm sleeves and trouser legs, following them His footsteps made beeping and squeaking sounds, and he rushed around quickly under the thick grass leaves. The person walking in front swung a machete, and even the human secretary picked off two grass snakes.But this place is not completely deserted. What they are walking on is a path that was opened not long ago. This season is the period when plants grow the fastest, but no one passes by for two days, and the shadow of greenery seems to be quietly shrouded again. come over.
However, this may be their last season.
After they walked that section of the road, the sunlight seemed to become stronger after they crossed a gray line, and even the field of vision became wider. The dense vegetation on the ground was cleared away, and haystacks were piled up on the edge of the open space. There was a unique bitter smell of medicinal herbs, and farther away, a row of wooden houses stood on the reddish-brown land. It was also two days ago that there was almost nothing here.A werewolf was sitting in front of the door guarding an earthen jar on a small iron stove. The smell of medicinal herbs came from under the slightly trembling jar lid. After seeing the patriarch and others, the werewolf quickly stood up while leaning against the wall.
"Are you hurt?" Keel asked, walking over.
"The snake bit me," said the young werewolf in embarrassment.
"Very bad?"
"No, it's just poisonous..."
"You are lucky." Keel said, he glanced at the crock pot on the stove, Scar pressed the shoulder of the werewolf, walked over them into the board room, saw the environment inside, he again go outside.
Only the wounded and sick were left in their quarters, the others were working elsewhere.Most of them came here directly from the settlements, without passing through the original place of the werewolves, so the path from that direction would appear deserted, and here, there are traces of people everywhere, only some of them are opening up wasteland, others Men were busy moving materials, surveying the land, laying foundations, and building more board houses.
For the arrival of Ska and others, only one person put down the tools in his hand and walked over.
"Are things going well?"
"It's going well, and what happened is as expected."
"Someone was hurt."
"It was our mistake."
"He's an idiot, he shouldn't be chasing that prey. I should thank you for saving his life." Keel said that in this wild place, being bitten by a poisonous snake is fatal, if their human allies do not happen to be They brought medicines that could treat them, and they came here this time to take away the body of a thousand commander's son.He looked up and looked around again, "I don't see many people now."
"Of course." The human captain said, "Everything has just begun. We have to prepare the land, and the road is still being repaired. It will take some time for the railway to reach here."
"It's really an expensive project."
The captain laughed, "Yes."
Scar stood not far from them, and the secretary who followed him like a shadow took out a roll of thick and tough paper from his large leather pouch, and unfolded it into a simple map.He looked at the map in his hand, and his eyes flicked across the land in front of him exuding the smell of plant sap and earthworms, the heads of people working with knives and hoes, the swaying grass tip and treetops, all the way to the silent dark mountains in the distance, with undulating ridges Light-colored spots can be faintly seen between the lines, which are mining areas that have been taken over by humans.
After the reunion, Ska and Yun Shen visited several mines together, from the mine to the factory, to the processing workshop, to basically understand the main production process of the settlement.During this process, Ska has always been very calm. Compared with Kiel and others who seem to have overturned the world he knew in the past, he accepts these things and Yun Shen's explanation quite quickly, but his actual feelings How, maybe even the pharmacist is not so clear.
Those slaves accepted by humans regarded the black-haired young man as a god, and even many werewolves in Sachel secretly feared him, thinking that he had the power of supernatural powers—the ore was picked out after the stone was broken, and the ore was melted into black Iron and black iron can be used to create weapons. This is the most complex use of natural creations known to ordinary people. Therefore, in their eyes, stones are turned into powders. After the powders are added to various materials, they can be calcined, and water can be added to form a slurry, and sand can be mixed. And gravel, the process of spreading it into a flat and hard huge plane is like magic, and the sandstone can be turned into glass after being turned into juice. The same ore, after passing through the factory built by the magician, pours out various weapons and tools. , and even "machines" that drive huge trains and ships appeared. The werewolves dreamed of this, and the slaves even thought that they would see the birth of a magical city.
"There is no magic. There is no magic in these processes, only the power of nature itself that can be used by everyone." Yun Shen and he said as they walked out of the beneficiation field along the wooden cart track.
"Everyone?" Scar asked.
"Everyone," Yun Shen said, "regardless of whether they believe that the world can be understood—to understand the emergence of the world, the formation of the world, and what kind of power drives everything that makes up the world, making the wind blow, fire burns, and what makes stones fall to the ground and birds to fly. Even if they don't know all this, they can use tools, cultivate the land, cook food, build houses, gather into tribes, cities and nations. Just as we use tools and the machine to complete the present."
Scar looked at him, this man's body was thin and his limbs were weak, apart from constantly summoning various "items" from his hometown, all the extraordinary things he showed in front of him were through various physical objects and other people. achieved through labor.Scar believed that if only this person was alone, he wouldn't be able to get out even a single spark—no, no, as long as he could still move, as long as there was nothing around him, the person called the "magician" would be fine. Sure to come up with something surprising.He can't create anything out of nothing, for example, like Scar, condenses water into ice, does not recite spells, does not draw magic circles, but can still control flames, create everything with flames, and destroy everything with flames.
Even if none of the human beings driven by this sorcerer possesses the power talent, they can still share this power.
"But as long as they don't follow you, they have nothing."
"As long as people have themselves, they will never have nothing." Yun Shen said, "However, if they don't understand the world and find the rules behind the known and unknown things, how can they truly master those powers? "
As a leader with outstanding talent, profound wisdom, and powerful strength, a magician should have some disciples.Whether among the survivors and mountain tribes who traveled with him on the migration journey, or among the slaves and werewolves, there are countless people who will do their best to become his disciples, and Yun Shen will respond to these people When there are problems at work, guide them how to solve them, but when it comes to using them, Scar, like others, noticed that the more he trusts, the smarter and hardworking people he is, the more he will be sent to bear the hardships. and hard work.The heavier the responsibilities and the more complicated the situations those people had to face, the more they needed his wisdom and guidance.In this way, the sorcerer and his followers form a strong but delicate interdependent relationship.
Even if he always said "everyone" and believed that he believed that these "everyone" had hidden abilities, he would not really treat them equally. This tendency is in the little wolf dog It is particularly obvious.
There was a buzzing sound coming from the front, Scar raised his head, and watched a "thing" move across the field in a smooth manner, with eight solid wing bones spread out in all directions, and the black wings with long and short forearms swirled so that only a ball could be seen. The phantom, when it passed over people's heads and slowly landed in an open space, almost everyone's eyes were attracted by it.Even if it's not the first time they've seen this thing, even Ska is the same...
This thing is indeed more amazing than any train steam engine!
In fact, this guy called "Remote Control Plane" is a very advanced creation even in Yunshen's hometown. When Ska asked him whether he could fly with people after zooming in, he gently but firmly It was rejected, but Yun Shen did not deny his idea of flying.In fact, his huge collection of books does record the skills of making machines that can take people into the sky—not the kind of hot air balloon that travels with the wind, but one that can overcome the clouds and strong winds, and surpass the speed of all flying birds. A real "airplane".
But here, they have not yet had the conditions to create such a vehicle.After hearing the conditions he listed, Scar asked how long it would take to meet them.
Yun Shen thought for a moment, "If it's just 'prototype verification'...after eight years, we can start trying."
Ska reluctantly accepted the time.
Standing next to the aerial camera, Scar and Fan Tianlan, who had just obtained the video records, exchanged the situation on both sides, and focused on understanding the working conditions of the group of werewolves who came to this construction site.The efficient construction of Sasheer's original place has established a certain foundation after this period of time. Before the real trading market is formed, the plan will be gradually realized according to actual needs. Some of the surplus and skilled labor will be transferred to the construction site here with some werewolves, thank you Er wants to let another part of his tribe gradually learn from the rest of the human race how to become qualified builders in the process.
"Practice is the best learning", this is an integration method that has been decided by the meeting of both parties.The sorcerer honed his followers in his own way. Sachel did not experience these difficult beginnings of human beings, but shared the fruits of these human struggles. Even though many werewolves felt the pressure brought by their human allies, they learned skills The conditions are much better than those humans have ever experienced. After comparing the young foxes and werewolves in the school, as well as the werewolves and humans in different departments in the settlement, it is more intuitive to understand different groups of people through the numbers provided by humans. After the difference between them, Ska and the others accepted the statement that "there is no inherent intelligence gap, only the difference in thinking style and effort", but they knew better, as the party that has unknowingly become weak in the covenant relationship, continue to What will happen if you fall behind.
As we all know, the sorcerer is gentle and kind, regardless of men, women, or children. There is almost no difference in front of him, whether he is a tribe or a captive slave. Under his rule, the sick and old are not abandoned, the weak are not bullied, and women and children are especially affected. His concern is as compassionate as a saint, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have majesty.He did not force, but let everyone act according to the rules he set. Perth and Keir had more and closer contact with those humans, and they knew very well the process of the patriarchs and elders of the mountain tribes losing their power step by step. Just like flowing water over a sandy embankment, when they realize that they can no longer order anyone beyond the rules, and even the marriage, death and new birth of tribal members are no longer controlled by tradition, there is nothing they can change.
So would Sachel.This process is happening.
If they want to acquire the skills of the magician and master the power of thunder and fire created by the magician, they must obey those rules, learn those behaviors, and move closer to those humans from body to mind. This is what the werewolves must pay. the price.There is also no coercion in this process, and the magician has opened up almost everything to them—the school is there, any werewolf can walk into the classroom to listen to the knowledge spread by the instructor, and the factory is there, as long as the werewolves are willing, they can always stay there There are always jobs they can do, but there are still people who are uneasy about the changes in their lives. After trying to sit in the classroom and enter the factory, they are faced with a complex and awkward new language, difficult calligraphy and calculation courses, and even the progress of the courses. Time does not allow easy walking and talking, and many werewolves feel frustrated. Facing the hot and humid factory environment, noisy, full of various smells, many rules and extremely strict environment, more werewolves find it difficult to adapt, hard and hard. The boring mining and road construction work is not popular among werewolves, and the military camp attracts most werewolves. However, after the special period at the beginning of the alliance, no matter whether werewolves or humans, only those who have passed certain courses can be selected. Even if you go there, even if you go to the barracks, in addition to the daily hard training, you still cannot avoid the courses of language, writing and calculation. That squad will be punished.
In just one month, when the Musa Conference was in progress, the werewolves who returned to the original place of the tribe remembered the freedom of the past. The wind swept through the sky, the sun rose and the moon set, and only nature and the will of the gods could control them. There are no comfortable and rich living conditions today, but there is also no such painful mental torture.There are only a small number of adult werewolves, who can be counted on four limbs, and have adapted to the new life. Even if they can't adapt completely, they still know what they should do.
Scar was watching them, and the others were watching as well. Scar knew that Yun Shen was waiting, with extraordinary patience, for the dross to settle, and then those who had been smelted and purified would be carefully and carefully Forged, carefully sculpted, to make them the creatures he needed, as he had done with the Remnants and the Mountain Clans.
