In a sense, these people who came back were smart people.

Wolf skin and others are chasing after them, and if they continue to run, they will definitely run away. Running away is equal to death, a few people are too small for the wilderness of this era, wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards are everywhere, and a tribe with less than a dozen people cannot survive.

These people are accustomed to living with the tribe and have no idea what to do alone in the mountains and forests.

The Horned Deer had limited stamina and had to stop to ruminate, so while resting, they decisively knocked Redfish unconscious, tied her up, killed the remnants of the Redfish tribe, young and old, and forced the women to go back.

Those who flee to the forest will surely die, and they will survive. They thought so, avoiding the gaze of their original clansmen, and jumped off the horned deer far away from Jian Chen, putting their hands on their chests to show that they didn't have anything in their hands.

Several clansmen around Jian Chen were holding back the angry slaves, unwilling to accept the return of those who had betrayed their relatives.

Many of Jian Chen's people didn't understand why they should be allowed to come back, such people should be exiled from the tribe, but for the sake of those horned deer and women, this sentence was still not spoken, just spit on those people with disdain, or mocked a few words.

Jian Chen felt that these people still had use value for the time being, and if they were left alone, they would be torn apart by those angry clansmen now, but it was obviously meaningless to tear them apart here.

With the power of this victory, he had to do many things, such as making all the nearby tribes aware of the cost of betrayal and the consequences of not keeping their oaths. Killing chickens to make an example of monkeys, killing chickens before the monkeys appear, is worthless.

And before that, he also needs a translator, and this group of captives must be prepared to be used as slaves, only in this way can the people have more time off work.

He beckoned to the men, who found that Jian Chen really didn't seem to kill them, crying that he was forced to do so, and that if he didn't, he would die. But Jian Chen obviously didn't want to listen to this, and seemed a little impatient, and they hurriedly said, "We have captured the priest of that tribe, and it is this woman. ”

Jian Chen glanced casually and found that the tied woman was also staring at him. Hongyu didn't expect that her first meeting with Ken would be like this, these days she had imagined what it would be like to lead a strong clan to Ken, but she never expected that he was just a very ordinary person, who seemed to have just grown up and didn't look strong.

She cursed a few words that Jian Chen didn't understand, but Jian Chen ignored him and asked the people next to him, "You have been here for many days, can you understand what they are saying?" ”

"I can understand some."

"You ask them if they want to live? Or do you want to die? Their village has been burned by me, and the big rock has been thrown into the river, and everything is gone. If you want to die with the village, say it now. If you don't want to die, just stand over there. ”

He casually pointed to a place, looked at the sun and said, "Before the sun reaches the top of that mountain." ”

Those few people used not very skilled words, along with gestures, and finally understood Jian Chen's words.

Those people were blankly guessing their fate, and of course they wanted to live. But I don't know what kind of life it will be like to live like this, so I subconsciously looked at the red fish, wanting to get an answer from the priest.

They knew what they had done to those they had captured, and it all came back to them that day.

Redfish looked at the ruined village, at the huge pit in the village, where the tribe once believed, but now there was nothing left, and the stone that recorded the myth of the ancestors had been thrown into the river by the group.

Looking at his own people, the young children were hidden behind their mothers, so frightened that they did not dare to cry; The men who were tied up no longer had the courage...... A little child timidly said, "Aunt Redfish, I don't want to die." ”

Redfish endured the uneasiness and trepidation in her heart, and when she fled, she abandoned these people, young and old, but these people still wanted an answer from her.

The child's trusting eyes were like the sun, and her eyes tingled a little, and she didn't dare to look at them.

In a gentle tone that she hadn't used since becoming a priest, she said to the child, "Don't die, don't die, we're all alive." ”

The boy pointed to the original slaves and said, "We have beaten them before, and we have killed them, will they beat us now?" ”

"Don't be afraid, mom and aunt will block it......"

She really wanted to touch the child, this was the only warmth she could bring to the child now, but her body was tied and she couldn't move at all, and she wanted to say something, but someone interrupted her.

Jian Chen heard what Hongyu was muttering, and it was obvious that the captives trusted the woman, so he turned around and said, "Tell that woman that you are not allowed to speak until you learn our words." Since those people listened to her, let her tell her people, and then speak their language, rattan smoke, and kill more than five times. From now on. ”

After the translation, the red fish understood these words, and the adults also understood these words, and they all closed their mouths. But the boy didn't understand what this meant, so he opened his mouth to ask.

Seeing that the child seemed to be about to speak, Redfish hurriedly shouted, "Don't speak! Don't cry! Alive! Stand over there! ”

Syllable! Syllable!

The rattan slammed into her face, and Jian Chen stretched out four fingers, believing that a priest would understand what he meant.

Redfish endured the hot pain on his face, closed his mouth, and didn't say a word.

Seeing that she was no longer talking, Jian Chen raised his head to look at the sun in the sky, and the captives next to him all walked to the place he had designated.

"Do you want to live? Nod when you want to, shake your head if you don't want to. ”

Redfish nodded, but did not speak.

"Put her down, tie her up with those people, five or six people."

The clansmen untied the rattan and laid down the red fish. As soon as the red fish landed, instead of touching his swollen cheek with his hand, he lowered his head to find a stone.

The clansmen next to her thought she was going to resist and raised the stone axe, but she immediately put the stone into her mouth, whined, pointed to her mouth and waved her hand, and even gestured four fingers to Chen Jian.

She wanted to survive, or rather she wanted to see for herself how the tribe lived.

Hearing those people say that this tribe was still like them when the apricots were yellow, and it had only become so powerful in such a short time, she wondered why.

I also want to know how such a large clay pot is fired, and I want to know how the house they say is built...... And if you want to know, you have to live, as long as your eyes are still there, you will understand one day.

Her clan no longer exists, and after leaving her people, she is no longer the red fish protected by the gods, just an ordinary person, so before she dies, she wants to know a lot of things. The red fish had to think about the tribe, so she wanted to know how the large clay pot was fired, which would make it easier for the people to eat. And now that she is no longer a red fish, she still wants to know, because she just wants to know.

At dinner, she finally saw with her own eyes the large clay pot, indeed very large, and in it boiled a freshly slaughtered sheep, which belonged to her own tribe in the early morning.

Jian Chen had already sent someone to tell those people downstream the news of the victory, and some of them had dragged the boats over, loaded with things, and prepared to go back early tomorrow morning.

The fragrance wafted, and those who were slaves in the morning have now become free people, and they combed their hair in a bun, grateful to their ancestors, grateful to Chen Jian, and ate their first meat in two months.

The deceased are gone, and the living have to live, so they ask Jian Chen what to do in the future, and Jian Chen says that he will give them an answer when he returns to the village.

After dinner, there were a dozen pieces of mutton and dried fish left. He pointed to the sheep and the fish and said in his own language, "Sheep, fish." ”

Then let the few people who understand each other's language tell them that whoever learns to say these two sentences first will have something to eat, and there is only so much, and there is nothing that they learn later.

Each piece of meat is not big, and it is calculated according to the weight set by Yu Qian'er, that is, half a catty, which is not enough to eat enough, but it can sustain life.

Those who had been hungry for a day immediately learned these two words in a strange voice, Hongyu closed her mouth and didn't say a word, she knew that since this person named Jian didn't kill them, she would definitely not let them starve to death, otherwise how easy would it be to kill them now? She hoped that the children would learn, but no, and the people who had been given the food took the meat in their hands and swallowed it immediately.

There were people keeping vigil at night, and early the next morning, these people were called aside by Chen Jian in rows, in groups of five.

Jian Chen only asked them one sentence, did someone speak in their own language last night?

These people learned to nod and shake their heads, shaking their heads after hearing the translation. Other than that, Jian Chen didn't ask anything.

When everyone had finished asking, he randomly found a group of people, asked the clansmen to lead them out, and told them that someone had just told him that they had spoken last night.

The group hurriedly shook their heads, but the rattan still pulled down fiercely, crackling.

When they returned, their backs were still hot, and they looked around, wondering who it was, but they couldn't find it at all.

An atmosphere of distrust rose all around these people, everyone was wary of others, and everyone kept their mouths tightly shut.

Song approached Jian Chen and asked in a low voice, "Did they really speak?" ”

"Nope. But I don't dare to say it in the future. ”

Jian Chen smiled, called a few young men from his own clan, as well as some people from the rest of the tribe, and gave them some horned deer and said, "You ride together and go first, go and inform the people of the rest of the tribes, and let the leaders of the rest of the tribes take the people to our village within five days." ”

"Do you want to inform the tribes who have broken their oath?"

"No, they broke their oath, and we'll inform them in another way."

Jian Chen touched the stone axe, and said in his heart that it was time for those tribes to learn to be in awe, and the days when the various tribes did not interact with each other should be over.
