Chapter 281: Ancient Beasts

Facing the great witch's advice, the patriarch just nodded, and still insisted on considering a day before making a decision. The great witch was so angry that he knocked on the scepter and walked away.
Bai Yi sat opposite the patriarch and looked at him in a little panic, "Father, you won't really agree? Then what shall we do in the future? We let the people suffer this kind of humiliation, and they will no longer obey us. If Xu Zifan is there. Remuneration can guarantee their lives. After a year, they may listen to Xu Zifan. After all, there is no danger to work. It is better than going out hunting. There will be no tiger clan chief by then!"
The patriarch slapped him severely, "Do you think I don’t know? But what can I do if I disagree? Once the tribe finds that the tiger is behind other tribes, are they willing to obey my orders? If it weren’t for you, how could we end up here? So what?"
Bai Yi covered his face in silence, and the patriarch said dejectedly: "If you want power, you have to hide things outside of your tribe, how long you can hide it. But the day the truth is revealed, the whole clan will scold me, and I will become a tiger. Sinner of the clan, I cannot bear this sin." He patted Bai Yi on the shoulder and sighed, "We have no way to go, we can only surrender, there is no way to go..."
Bai Yi said gloomily: "No, there is still a way. As long as the clansmen are unwilling to surrender to Xu Zifan, they will never blame us in the future. That is their own choice."
The patriarch frowned, hesitated and shook his head for a moment, "It won't work. Don't do extra things. I will talk to Mengya again a day later to see if I can get some special treatment. Go out, I'm tired."
Bai Yi saw his father's deep disappointment in him, and rushed out the door full of heart, rushed out of the tribe, and vented fiercely in the forest! In the past, he had always been the pride of his father. He was the young patriarch of the Tiger Clan. Except for Mengfang, no orc could beat him. He was beautiful. Now he is like a bereavement dog, all this is given by Xu Zifan, how can he surrender to Xu Zifan? He dignified the tiger clan young patriarch to do coolies, how would other people laugh at him? He couldn't hold his head up all his life!
Bai Yi slumped to the ground panting, calmed down after a long time, and made a decision. The Tiger Clan should be his originally, and he would not allow others to take it from him. When he returned to the tribe, he found two familiar orcs and his fiancé Muci, and told them the punishment Xu Zifan had imposed on them. He said that once the Tiger tribe accepts punishment to do coolies, they will be looked down upon with half of the reward. Xu Zifan is hostile to them again, and the Tiger tribe will never stand up again. If they don’t go, they can think of ways to grow on their own, and even marry other tribes to learn their knowledge. They can live a good life without relying on Xu Zifan, and they are free to not be afraid of Xu Zifan targeting them. Is it better not to say this?
People in the orc world have no education and basically have no vision. They can't understand that Xu Zifan's punishment of the tiger race is to pave the way for future equality, and they can't think of what kind of kingdom Xu Zifan wants to build. Therefore, when they heard Bai Yi's words, they naturally believed it, as if they had seen the shameful days in the future, they were very angry, and immediately followed Bai Yi's instructions to quietly spread the matter to the whole family.
Most of the others reacted similarly to them. After all, the Tigers used to be ranked in the top three among all the tribes, and their strength was not weak. Now let them be lower than the other tribes, of course they are not willing. Early the next morning, the clansmen gathered at the patriarch’s door and asked the patriarch to refuse Mengya's request, and were very hostile to Mengya.
He frowned and looked at Bai Yi, "What did you say to them?"
The patriarch stared at Bai Yi severely, and Bai Yi said with a cold face: "To tell the truth, didn't you ask us to be slaves?"
Chasing the wind came forward to appease everyone, and said loudly: "Don’t get excited, listen to me, I have seen a lot during the Leopard Clan study period, wise adults can really bring us a better life. Don’t forget Yes, he is admitted by the Beast God! Did you forget that the Beast God told us to listen to the orders of the wise adults? The Beast God can’t be wrong! It’s not a lifetime for us to do coolies. As long as the city is built, we will enjoy it with others The treatment is the same, and the wise man promised that everything in the past will not be held accountable by then. This is a good opportunity and we must not miss it!"
If he said this first, maybe everyone would consider it somehow, but Bai Yi said it the night before. They discussed the whole night, and the shameful future has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If you listen to these words, you will feel like drawing a big cake. , Speaking empty words, it is not reliable at all, naturally do not buy it.
The big witch rushed over and showed a stern expression to everyone, "The beast told us to follow the orders of the wise adults, and we must listen! Patriarch, what do you say?"
Everyone looked at the patriarch. The patriarch pondered for a moment and was about to speak, Bai Yi said first: "Why don't you choose as suggested by Mengya yesterday, everyone chooses it yourself, you want to leave, and you want to stay. The wise adults did not ask us. Must be punished? Staying still does not violate the orders of the wise man."
"Bai Yi! Stop it!" The patriarch yelled, but it was too late. The orcs had already shouted, clamoring to stay.
The situation was a bit uncontrollable, and Meng Ya kept frowning and watching, feeling that in the current situation of these people, even if they tried to get them to reluctantly agree to do coolies, they would definitely get into trouble, and they might end up even worse than the wolf clan. A terrible end. I don't know why, he just feels that Xu Zifan is not a soft-hearted person. He has no doubt that Xu Zifan will be executed by Tiger Clan people when they commit a crime. It would be better to just live and die outside.
Fiercely leaped on the altar, and said loudly: "Just do it. Those who want to follow me come to my side, and those who want to stay stand on the side of the patriarch. The wise adults have orders, and those who accept the punishment are in the city. After that, he will enjoy the same treatment as everyone else. Those who don't accept it will never take care of him from now on. With this opportunity, you decide now and I will leave at noon."
At this point, Bai Yi was still nervous. He was out of selfishness. He couldn't help but feel at ease when he saw that most of the tribe hadn't moved.
The great witch is the first to walk on the altar, "I will follow the instructions of the beast god, follow the orders of the wise man, and accept his punishment. Following the wise man is the right choice. We must learn how to grow and grow, instead of continuing the past. day."
The crowd suddenly rioted, and the great witch had a high status. His decision shaken the determination of many people. A few patients immediately went to the edge of the altar, and there was only the great witch in the clan who would heal the disease. They could only wait to die if they did not follow along. Then a lot of old orcs and females walked over. They were not too young, not so aggressive, and more willing to listen to the great witch. Then a few females who thought Xu Zi mortal were good before stood over, and a few orcs who were pursuing them followed after weighing them.
Bai Yi yelled angrily when Lu saw the people who walked past, "Are you all going to be traitors to the Tiger Clan? Would you rather believe in outsiders than in ourselves? Is it true that all of us Tiger Clan are bullies, so we can’t become strong. ?"
Mu Ci stood beside him and said, "Bai Yi is right. The Tiger Clan is the strongest. I am honored for this and will never surrender like others."
Some people who were planning to pass stopped when they heard the words, but there were still a few people who persisted in passing. In the end, there were more than 30 people willing to go with Mengya, and more than 60 people remained. Da Wu sighed when he saw the divided Tiger Clan, but he tried his best. These 30-odd people are the future hope of the Tiger Clan, and the rest can only be resigned.
The situation was settled, and the patriarch could not say anything, he staggered back to the house. He yelled at the person who was about to leave to prepare things quickly, but Bai Yi stopped again, "You have betrayed the tiger clan, what face do you have to take the tiger clan's things? Just get out!"
A few young and energetic orcs echoed behind him, "Get out of the way, and become a slave with the big traitor Mengya!"
"I want to see if you can work hard for a few days, don't run back after two days to beg for mercy haha."
Da Wu shook his head disappointedly, "Bai Yi, how did you become like this? People of the same Tiger clan, who have been in a bad relationship today, are you planning to never get together again in the future? We could have helped each other..."
"Bah! Stop talking nonsense. If you really care about the tiger clan, you shouldn't take the lead and leave. The big witch is gone. What if some of us are injured? Have you thought about it?"
The big witch's expression became cold, "I only follow the instructions of the beast god, since you insist on doing this, bang your teeth, let's go now."
Those who were going to leave only took some of their own bone ornaments with special significance, and left the Tiger tribe with Mengfang without taking anything else. They were nervous in their hearts, and some of them had faint regrets, but after taking this step, they would not be pleased to stay, and they just went straight away when they were thinking about it. Chasing the wind to comfort them, "The wise adults are very good people and have taught everyone a lot. We can live a better life after suffering for a while. Don't worry."
His smile made everyone feel less heavy, and Mengfang arranged for the orcs to bring the females and rushed with all their strength. They had ten orcs. The strong orcs brought two thin females. When they were hungry on the road, they hunted and picked fruit to eat. They quickly rushed to the leopard tribe. Meng Ya told them to wait outside the tribe, and went in to ask Xu Zifan to explain the situation. The Tigers stopped in place obediently. They didn't realize that they were already listening to Mengya's orders subconsciously.
When Mengya found Xu Zifan, he was trying to make cement. He has to be grateful for the experience of academics and scientists. It is relatively easy to find materials and conduct experiments. After hearing the report from Mengya, he nodded and smiled at him, "You did a good job. Since they chose it by themselves, you don’t have to blame yourself for other people. Everyone must take care of their own lives. Responsible. And they may not have a bad life. For these people who come, you and Sada go to the patriarch to talk about, and then directly take them to burn bricks. We need a lot of bricks. Give them a lot to eat. But if you don’t support food, some people are lazy and remember to halve."
"Don't you go take a look?"
"No, as long as they don't make trouble, they can live a good life." Xu Zifan doesn't actually care who is coming. He has nothing to do with these people. Anyway, his task object must not come, which is enough.
