Volume 1 Chapter 016 The Miracle in the Wolf Fang Camp
The night of Entagray is as cool as water, but the slight coldness hides madness and flames!
Unlike the nights in the modern city where Liu Yunpeng lived in the past, on this other world continent called Entagri, night is synonymous with danger and fatality, because you will never know what is hidden behind that illuminated darkness.
Is it the dead claws of the undead? Or the hideous demon?
Of course, even those whispers that belong to witches hidden in the swamp are fatal to ordinary people. As long as you hear a little, the soul of a mortal will be caught by the sound of the soul-catching, and the mind will disappear into the smog before dawn, leaving only the body to rot at home, becoming what the people in the countryside call "heartless people".
For the thieves in the Wolf Tooth Camp, the public lynching of James' "cut into pieces" last night may be the most unforgettable terrifying memory of their lives... It is even more unforgettable than when they first officially robbed and killed people. Looking at the heavy silver coin in their hands, many people couldn't sleep all night.
However, the night will eventually pass, and darkness will eventually be replaced by light!
When the morning light of the new day caresses the earth and sends the breeze to every corner of the Derenna Mountains, it is very strange. In the early morning of this day, a strange sound of trumpets sounded in the wolf-fang camp.
At this moment, the entire wolf-fang camp has completely woken up, but the number of people is much smaller. There are only fifty people in the wolf-fang camp, which is much smaller than when the execution was performed last night.
Of course, it was not that someone was so crazy that he smeared and killed half of them overnight, but that those people were woken up by Rem's punch and kick in the early morning and hurried out of the mountain and didn't know what to do.
The rest began to work as a coolie under the personal supervision of James Little, and began to travel back and forth to mine a large amount of wood in the forest at the foot of the mountain, and did not know what the other party was going to do.
Of course, even if you have questions about James’s request, others dare not speak much. They just obey orders numbly, because everyone is calling James “Demon James” behind their backs. God knows what kind of torture will he suffer if he violates his orders?
Anyway, just thinking about last night’s “examples” is enough for everyone to feel cold in their hearts...
However, what everyone did not expect was that the "quirky request" of the demon James had been working for most of the day! Even if some people could not hold on, they were only allowed to rest on the spot, and had enough food and drink, but they were not allowed to leave. After resting for about half a prayer, they had to continue working, as if they were urging death to make everyone complain in their hearts.
But the only thing that makes everyone feel ecstatic is that the lunch at noon is a sumptuous thing that everyone has never seen before!
The mushroom rabbit meat soup squatting in the pot in the middle of the camp was so greedy for everyone! And little James even ordered Breson to move out a bucket of wine from the camp warehouse.
Hell ~
That was the treasure of the old James, the wolf king Kangen, before! He was not willing to drink more before he died [of course, for those who died of illness, if he still had the strength to drink with the mood before he died], you can imagine the preciousness of that wine.
In fact, this is not a top-quality wine at all. It is just a carriage of more than ten barrels of ordinary wine that James robbed a long time ago. It was just that he was addicted to alcohol and later carefully stored it for more than ten years, which made the wine more mellow.
But there were not many people who were qualified to drink this wine. In the past, only Old James and his group of Iron-level warriors could share it while celebrating the achievements. The others could only drink some inferior barley wine. This time, Little James was a desperate person and let everyone drink it together, which really shocked many people.
To be honest, after last night, everyone was temporarily controlled by James Jr., but the control gained from fear was not worth mentioning, and they could only force the crowd to subdue the crowd. Once the opportunity was found, the opponent's counterattack was almost predictable. Even at this moment, there were few people in the crowd who were making tricks. It was just because James Jr. Jr. had just established his authority, and others might not dare to act rashly.
However, to be honest, this lunch meal made many people feel "flattered"!
Don't doubt that on the Entagray continent, ordinary people can have enough food and clothing for a day, just like having a holiday, and this kind of fish and meat at noon... There is even good wine to drink only nobles or farmers with farms with land. Although for the need to "work" in the afternoon, James only allows each person to drink a small bowl of wine, it is enough for some of the flatterers in the crowd to praise him~
However, whether it is everyone's awe or praise.
All of this is reflected on the face of James, but he always looks neither salty nor light. When everyone is afraid of him, he will smile at everyone, and when everyone praises him, he will laugh. No matter how outsiders understand what his smile represents, his expression does not change much, and for a while, everyone can't touch his intentions. In the end, he has to be obedient and honestly enjoy the rare "feast".
After dinner, I continued to go back and forth between the mountain camps and the woods at the foot of the mountain to mine wood.
In fact, there are suitable trees around the camp. Everyone usually collects wood to build houses and makes fires. But little James seems to have seen nothing. He only asked everyone to hike several miles down the mountain to cut trees, saw the wood and then move it back. It made everyone tired like dogs...
But work may be difficult, but time passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, it will be late. At this time, the large group of people in Rem finally came back under everyone's suspicion and concern... Fortunately, there were many people, which made everyone relieved.
However, what really shocked everyone was that not only did Rem and the others come back, but also brought back a lot of food, wine and linen!
Good guy ~
It turns out that these people haven't seen each other for a day, but they are going out to "do business"?
I don’t know which village or an unlucky passerby group I snatched up, and got so many good things?
However, when Gao Cailie, the person at the foot of the mountain, asked the past, the people who followed him out looked strange, and just kept shaking their heads and told them not to ask, which made everyone mutter in their hearts again...
At night, the feast begins again!
Compared to the luncheon, not only are there enough meat soup at night, but there are even several more vegetables and fruits... Holy Father! Is this the legendary feast of nobles and men? Countless people among the bandits were shocked and couldn't believe that everything in front of them was true, especially when they saw the dry bread in their hands... Oh my God, some people even whimpered while eating, constantly squeezing the food, but their tears and snot had fallen into the bowl, dyeing the food...
Dried bread...
This is what people eat. In comparison, there is a type called "black bread" or "miscellaneous grain bread", which is something that real dogs don't like to eat.
However... However, you should know that before these people became bandits, how many people endured the harsh exploitation of local nobles just for one piece of black bread that was big in a day, but they could not fill their stomachs in one meal?
Those "powerful people" who are above the lower class are like legendary vampires who try their best to squeeze everyone under their command, so that they can get even more taxes on even one copper coin.
But what about the people?
Who cares about the lives and deaths of the people?
Nothing at all ~
The nobles only paid attention to whether the fat and thinness of the cattle, sheep, pigs and horses on their dining tables were suitable, and only paid attention to the beautiful ladies who came from afar at their dances, and only paid attention to how much more cash is added in the warehouse every year.
Others...the lives and deaths of the people have to do with them?
It was just a group of pigs that could pull out copper coins from geography. Just like Tian Mouse, I can't kill them all. If I die, I will still be there anyway~
As for where these "Tian Mouse" came from... It can be said that almost no powerful man can explain it clearly.
But such a humble, poor, and heavy taxes are already the whole of many rural people.
And what they struggled for all their lives may be just a piece of "black bread"... The kind of stuff they made with wheat bran, bean skin, unknown plant tuber or some moldy flour in the warehouse can be swallowed up and swallowed.
Compared with one, the "dry bread" in everyone's hands is somewhat of a real bread, but it is not as soft and fragrant as white bread, but it is definitely a supreme delicacy...
Such things...the delicacy in the dream! In the past, this was only the treasures that nobles would give them mercy to eat when they were the two biggest celebrations of the year, Resurrection Trace and Harvest Festival. But today, today...
Everyone was deeply moved, but afterwards, a piece of news spread, which surprised everyone even more!
These... everything in everyone's hands, the supplies that everyone saw in the afternoon and evening, were not taken back by them, but Rem spent money to "buy" back from the nearby village chief!
Robber leader...buy something???
When everyone learned that all this came from the orders of James, everyone was speechless and could not connect the nightmare memories of last night with the current reality like a banquet in heaven with the same person...
However, when everyone looked back, they found that little James didn't seem to care about all this. He was just whispering something with Rem. During this period, he frowned slightly, as if he had heard some bad news. However, he noticed that everyone was looking at him. Little James just asked everyone to eat quickly. After finishing the meal, he went back to rest quickly, as if he didn't care about everyone's shock.
In fact, "Little James" at this moment really doesn't care about all this~
Awe? Worship? Mysterious?
No, none of this is what he wants. All he wants is strength, faster, stronger, more reliable and invincible power, and powerful that can make himself live longer. In this world that is about to be in a turbulent and huge change...
The heavy and arduous physical labor lasted for five days, and the hearty food that made people's index fingers trembled, almost making a big circle of fat food lasted for five days.
During these five days, many of the ideas in the crowd were also secretly changing. From the awe and suspicion of James at the beginning to the "work" he is now focused on the "work" at hand. They have learned to stop thinking and guessing because they have realized that they will never guess what result.
Nowadays, little James seems to have gradually become something that everyone can no longer see through. In other words, since he returned strongly that night, he sealed the monk into the treasure cave and conquered the entire thieves, he has changed. He is no longer the boy who was cowardly and incompetent, and even his father gave up on him, although he is only sixteen years old now...
Five days later, another incident occurred in the camp. It was not a big deal, but it shocked everyone and almost all their eyes fell out!
Because... Little James, who had barely been well-behaved, actually started to "work" with them!
When James and Braisson appeared in the forest farm at the foot of the mountain and began to help carry the wood up the mountain, everyone was shocked. They looked as if they were ghosts as they watched the two young men carrying a piece of wood they could barely move and staggering towards the mountain. The forest farm at the foot of the mountain was silent.
But after the silence, I don’t know who was the first to turn back and start to "work" again. But when some people who knew it later came to their senses, they found that most people were already working without saying a word, and they were more serious and harder than before!
It seemed like a small miracle flashed at the Wolf Tooth Camp on the eastern foot of the Derenna Mountains. In the past ten days, the entire Wolf Tooth Camp has almost been completely renewed!
Not only did the dilapidated and scattered fur and forage tents in the camp disappear, but they were replaced by a long row of more than ten neat and orderly newly built wooden houses, but even a row of wooden walls had been erected around the camp!
Although the project is only less than a quarter of the beginning, a rough prototype can be basically seen.
What’s even more amazing is that in just over ten days, the mental outlook of the bandits in the entire Wolf Tooth Camp was completely renewed!
As James, Rem and other "powerful people" ate and slept with everyone, and even worked together and sweated together, this small group of thieves, which were already on the verge of collapse, suddenly turned miraculously!
And in silence, everyone has established a feeling that seems to be sharing weal and woe. In short, there has been a lot of changes compared to the previous thieves!
However, if you ask the thieves to tell you exactly where the change has changed, they can't tell the reason. I'm afraid the most thing is to smile and say loudly: "Anyway, the boss is so powerful, he can do whatever he says! No matter where the mother changes, as long as I can continue to live my current life, I will always follow the boss!"
However, if you let the little James, who has been "reborn" at this moment, he can explain the changes here in one sentence: that is, everyone has a great chance of living than before! They saw the hope of life. Although it was vague and faint, everyone was trying their best to move closer to the hope of rebirth and want to live better~
Being alive and willing to do your best to survive is the current wolf-tooth thieves group, or the new wolf-tooth group that has been reborn in blood and has been reborn! Little James' wolf-tooth group...
It's a pity that the good times won't last long~
It took only a month to go, and as a bad news came to the ears of James, it caused a lot of trouble to the arrangement he had originally expected, that was...there was no money!
I have to keep my mouth open for 60 or 70, and people have been eating more and more recently, but how can I not spend money?
Especially since James regained the Wolf Teeth Group, he has never brought anyone out to do a single transaction, and even rejected Rem's suggestion to take people out to "do business". He only went out of the camp but didn't go in. Even though the savings left by old James did have a lot of money, how could he withstand such a loss of James?
You should know that half of it was originally left by James to give James the tuition fee to enter the National Magic Academy!
Calculating the accounts every day, thinking about the money that belonged to the young master was spent on those lazy guys like flowing money, Rem was so anxious that he almost got angry!
However, this time he was hard to hide it. If he continued like this, it would take less than two months to get rid of the entire camp.
What should I do then?
Will these guys who have been used to "comfortable life" be beaten back to their original form, and will they obey their orders as calmly and honestly as they are now?
Rem couldn't help but start to worry deeply~
When Liu Yunpeng heard the news that he didn't have much money, he was naturally anxious, but his anxious point was very different from Rem.
In fact, the entire camp warehouse has been filled with food materials and all kinds of things that Liu Yunpeng had originally pointed out. If he really had no money, relying on these inventory alone would be enough for a month.
But according to Liu Yunpeng's own plan, he was planning to wait for another group of Iron-level soldiers to go out to "seek treasures" in the camp. However, it seems that he should have traveled a little in advance to explore the situation, otherwise he was afraid that the uneasy Rem would be able to tell his ears through~
Of course, Liu Yunpeng could still feel the other party’s concern for him, but in the face of this “loyalty” after rebirth, he felt somewhat ashamed. After all, he was no longer the real little James...
