Lord Helanza

Although I don’t know what purpose the magician of the Dark Moon Gate flew over the village of Wall for a long time, what I can feel is that the magician gave Wo Ercun brings an invisible pressure, which seems to have spread to the hearts of every villager.

Some villagers in the village have already begun to talk secretly about the magician who can fly around on the magic scorpion. Seeing the magicians in the adventure group at the entrance of the village, the villagers’ eyes are also strange. .

Surdak has nothing to do with this. Although the Crystal Key has been sent out, the magician of the Dark Moon Gate does not seem to forget the village of Vol.

Surdak and the old village chief walked around the construction site of the reservoir first.

Around the harvest festival, the main grouting of the Level 4 reservoir dam at the reservoir site will be carried out after the harvest festival. Now the steel bars and plywood of the dam are ready, and volcanic ash is piled up on the site. Like a hill, very quiet on the construction site, the bricklayers have already returned to their villages two days ago, and they will return one after another after the harvest festival.

The old village chief stroked the plywood of the main body of the dam with one hand, tapping the plywood with his knuckles from time to time to check whether the plywood was firmly tied.

A bunch of steel bars are exposed where the plywood is not enclosed. This kind of steel bars thick with little fingers are all shipped from Pena City Blacksmith's Workshop. Up to now, the reservoir project only purchases these steel bars. , Surdak has already pulled out nearly five hundred Gold Coins.

The mayor of Bright said to Surdak: "After the harvest festival, the main dam of the Level 4 reservoir will be poured. By the way, Dak, the height of the Level 5 dam is a little low. The repairs have been repaired, why not build it higher?"

The Level 5 reservoir has the largest area, and the Level 5 reservoir is not a huge overall pool, but It is composed of thirteen pools closely linked with one another. The dams of these pools are only one meter high. The old village chief knows Surdak's thoughts, but he hopes that this large dam can store more water.

The two things that the old village chief wants to do most in his life: one thing to make the village no longer lack of water, and the other is to cultivate fields that can fill the villagers’ food. Now these two things Everything has been achieved, but he still habitually wants to save more water and cultivate more land...

Surdak is standing in the Level 5 reservoir, a large mountainous area that has not been completely leveled. And said to the old village chief:

"I am going to turn this Level 1 pool into a large bathing area, spread a layer of fine sand on the side of the pool, and plant some Willow Trees, and wait for the summer. , The children in the village can cool off here without worrying about being in danger because the water is too deep."

The old village chief was unwilling, he smacked his mouth and took out a walnut from his arms. The wooden pipe was filled with some shredded tobacco, and it was not lit, so I put it in my mouth and smoked it twice, frowning into the word "Chuan".

Surdak went on to explain: “According to the original design, the actual water storage pool of this large dam is only the first third rank. Enclosing the mountain springs in the upper reaches of the valley, I have to leave a place for everyone to fetch water. In the future, I plan to connect some copper pipes from a certain pool of the Level 5 reservoir to the pool so that I can directly Mountain springs are delivered to every household."

"The project is about to be completed, of course I understand this. It’s just that the more I understand, the more I can’t figure it out. The cost is nearly twice as expensive as the previous Level 3, and the manpower and material resources invested are huge. In the end, it is actually useless. I always feel that the construction of these two levels of reservoirs is a bit of a loss!" Village Chief Bright said earnestly.

"If there is anything to lose, you will know the benefits in the future." Surdak said with a smile.

The village’s central square is still very lively. The villagers are used to going to the square to eat a big pot of rice. When the old village chief and Surdak passed by the village square, the villagers stood up and greeted the two. The old village chief has always had no good expressions towards these villagers who are holding large wooden bowls for eating and drinking.

At the moment, facing a group of youngsters who are squatting in the corner for dinner, yelling: "You guys who are not involved in the construction of the townhouse, don’t always run here every day to eat, this place The cafeteria is a townhouse craftsman prepared."

A group of youngster'hehe haha' in the village said: "Bright Uncle, we all work on the townhouse construction site."

>

Village Chief Bright cursed immediately: "Go to the side, you brat thinks I'm confused, don't know if you are driving the carriage at the reservoir construction site?"

He took his hand up The crutches inside, limpingly moved towards those youngsters and walked quickly.

The other youngsters in the village immediately panicked, and they ran and explained: "Bright Uncle, we just slurp porridge and drink..."

"haha..."

The women in the village were sitting on the stone strip next to the square watching the excitement. The originally serious topic made a happy laughter and cheerful voices.

Mr. Bright walked angrily to the big iron pot cooking the multi-grain porridge, and instructed the cook who was cooking the multi-grain porridge: "You show me good food bags. When it’s done, I’m going to change."

The cook hurriedly scooped two more scoops of water into the cauldron...

Surdak and Chief Bright walked into the carpenter. In the workshop, due to the successive completion of small townhouses, all the triangular wooden frames on the roof of the carpenter’s workshop have been built. Wooden window frames are currently being built in large quantities. Some of the finished window frames are hung on the open space next to the carpenter’s workshop. A large pergola was built here with shade cloth. All the varnished windows are dried here. When you walk around here, you can smell a strong smell of paint.

It's getting late, the lights are still lit in the carpenter's workshop, and a group of carpenters are rushing to make the last batch of window frames.

The carpenter's workshop has always been the busiest place in Wall Village. Piles of wood piled up in the warehouse will soon be exhausted.

Surdak followed the old village chief to the row houses in front of the village. Most of the row houses at the entrance of the village have been rented by merchants and turned into temporary residences and warehouses. Due to the influx of a large number of adventure groups in Desolate Land Therefore, the village entrance market has become more and more prosperous. During this time, many businesses have been attracted, and the townhouses at the entrance of the village have been fully utilized.

A large row house near the river became a camp for the kobold slaves. Six hundred kobold slaves have always lived here.

Surdak and the old village mayor Bright moved towards the kobold slave camp, and from a distance, I heard the overseer in the village screaming, accompanied by the kobold slave whispering pleading, the quarreling sound is silent The night spread so far.

The old village chief heard the quarrel, but was not surprised. He only said that most recently, this group of kobold slaves has been restless.

When the two walked to the kobold slave camp, they saw that the village overseer was berating a group of kobolds. The headed kobold had a candle on its head, and it was only promised by the overseer. A group of kobolds whimpered in protest behind the leader of the kobolds.

Before Surdak understood what was going on, Mr. Bright told the entire process of development.

The reason is that Surdak did not know whether to cry or laugh. The kobold slaves are protesting to the supervisor. They think that even as slaves, they can’t live so dignifiedly in the future. The kobold slaves filed an application requesting that the male and female kobold slaves live separately. They need two slave camps. The old village chief thinks that it’s nothing. You only need to divide this slave camp into two and separate them from each other.

But the next requirements of the kobold slaves are a bit off the line. The kobold slaves hope that their daily labor can be exchanged for contribution. As long as the contribution is sufficient, the village will allow the kobold slave to start a family. And the newly formed family should have a separate room to ensure personal privacy and so on.

These kobold slaves began to protest for their own welfare.

But they also make a fuss after dinner before going to bed. During the day, they are still obediently and honestly toil. When it's time to go to bed, they will return to the camp obediently to rest.

Mr. Bright feels a headache about this and thinks it is necessary to discuss this matter with Surdak. The main reason is that these kobold slaves are making a lot of noise, and they are not up to the level of suppression. At the same time, they It is indeed seeking welfare for myself.

The old village chief had prepared to separate the slave camp after the harvest festival, but prepared a single room for the cheating couple-this request, the old village chief did not agree.

Surdak doesn’t understand, these only kobold slaves have always been very honest, how come they have made so many requests recently...

But then he found the problem, he At a glance, I saw the necklace the kobold leader wore on his neck. It was a necklace made of stones. This was nothing but the pendant of this chain of stones was very unusual. The pendant was in the shape of a crescent. Of stones.

Surdak suddenly remembered that more than a month ago, Selena had put her arms around herself and said that she wanted to try to develop dark Goddess followers among this group of kobold slaves-it currently seems The effect is very significant. Obviously this kobold leader has become a follower of the dark Goddess, and even the necklace representing the moon’s glory is worn on his neck...

He even suspects that the kobold slave is making trouble this time. To fight for rights, is to receive Selena's guidance.

After this whole summer, the kobold slaves can be regarded as proving their worth to the people of Wall Village. From the beginning of digging the river, to later starting to chisel stones in the quarry, they have always worked hard. , Has undertaken most of the hardest and most tiring labor, so much so that now they are now putting forward some requirements, and the old village chief feels that they can satisfy as much as possible.

The overseer saw that the old village chief and Surdak came over so late, thinking that they heard that the kobold slave was fighting, and they rushed in. They suddenly felt that they had not been able to do their job, fly into Under a rage out of humiliation, the leader of the kobold fiercely gave him a whip.

The kobold leader crawled on the ground, facing the overseer’s whip, with a candle on his head, crawling on the ground without knowing what he was meditating on.

"Wal, who allowed you to whip them..."

The old village chief walked quickly over, grabbed the whip from the villager’s overseer, and scolded angrily .
