When the child looked at me, there was wariness and hope in his eyes, but he didn't say a word.
A group of three-eyed tribesmen around me wanted to adopt him, but I kept silent because they didn't dare to go and catch the child.
"Okay." I agreed. The seed of the original god is a top priority, but now I have to understand the world first, so I can agree to adopt the child first, and then find a reliable family to send it to.
"Amu is the guard chief of our village. He is responsible for commanding and training the soldiers of Tailuo Village and protecting the safety of our village. By the way, what is your little brother's name?" asked the old village chief.
"Ah Tian." I replied. Guilty people don't have last names, so this answer is more appropriate.
"Chief A Tian, that house over there is A Mu's home. Please take a rest first. If you still don't understand anything, you can ask the two deputy chiefs." After the old village chief said,
He gestured towards the two deputy guards.
Two young men in their twenties immediately stood up to greet me. The chariots on their bodies each had two crystal stones, which showed that the village guards arranged their work based on strength.
People in the village began to dispose of Amu's body, and other villagers quickly dispersed.
Despite the large number of people in the village, there are actually not many real warriors in the guard station. Although the remaining prime men have the ability to hunt, most of them do not have war wheels. Those with war wheels should be considered warriors.
Therefore, other prime-age men and women have various jobs in their own villages, such as processing prey, growing herbs and food, etc.
As the head of the guard station, I control half of the life and death power of the entire village. This is also because the Three-Eyed Clan respects the strong and determines positions based on strength.
After the village chief said goodbye and left, the two deputy guards quickly gathered around me and tried to get as close to me as possible. They first introduced themselves to each other, and then began to introduce the situation in the village and their relationship with the surrounding villages.
, and took me towards the guard chief's office.
Apart from the place where the village chief lives, this guardhouse is the most luxurious room, but it is only a house of about ten square meters. You need to walk along the stairs built by the big tree to the waist of the tree.
The big trees here are about seven or eight meters in diameter, thick and heavy, but not everyone can live in the trees. I took a look and found that only soldiers and village chiefs can live in the trees. All other villagers live in the trees.
Down.
The place under the tree is the most unsafe. In the edge area, there are several rotten houses. It seems that they were destroyed by wild beasts in the middle of the night. Needless to say, the villagers inside are definitely gone.
There are also security posts on the trees, and the people who stand guard are all soldiers. The security posts set up in the village are not only to prevent wild beasts, but more to prevent tribes from other villages from attacking.
For example, the big tree where the village chief and I live is full of fruits, which are said to be a kind of food to fill the stomach. This is the real reason why the villagers built the village around the tree.
It is said that every village is similar to this. They are either built near a water source because there will be fish in the water and will attract wild animals, or they are built next to fruit trees that can keep the villagers full, so they don't have to worry about lack of food for at least half a year.
"A village like ours, Tailuo Village, which has water sources and such fruits, is certainly jealous of other villages, but with the presence of the guard chief in the future, Xiaoxiao will definitely not dare to approach!" Alu is the deputy guard chief.
, is extremely flattering to me now.
There was also a man named A Tu who also followed behind me and kept talking.
While I listened to them talking, I also looked at the child behind me. She followed me all the way to the tree house.
This child has a muddy face, is thin and weak, the animal skin he is wearing is too dark to be seen, and his hair is partially bald. He looks like a naughty boy of seven or eight years old, but I can tell at a glance.
It should be the child's protective color.
"Why are you following me? Do you still want to live with the Chief of Guards? The Chief of Guards doesn't want to talk to you. Whoever wants to adopt you can just go and adopt you!" Atu thought I disliked it, so he threatened her not to follow me.
The little girl was not afraid and followed him with angry eyes.
Alu quickly explained: "This girl has some warrior qualities. Unfortunately, after her father and mother died, she went crazy once and bit everyone in sight. Most villagers couldn't do anything to her. Originally, Amu thought that she wanted to take her away.
Who knew she would be like this when she came back after running away from the village for several days? Seeing her like that just now, it seems that some kind-hearted villagers want to take her in. Hey, I don’t know anyway.”
I glanced at her and asked, "You want to follow me?"
The little girl nodded firmly: "You have avenged me, and I am yours!"
I frowned at her and cursed this distorted world view in my heart: "I don't need you to follow me. You are free now. You can live the life you want."
