After walking on the mountain road for a whole day, Jun Shutong was already exhausted.
After all, this body is still that of a child under eight years old.
[System, remember to wake me up before Darcy and the others arrive.]
【I understand, host. You can sleep peacefully! 】
After a simple wash, he explained something to the system and fell asleep.
The next day.
When Jun Shutong came out of the space, the guards had already started eating breakfast.
"Miss, would you like to have dinner with me?"
"No need, just eat it."
She had already eaten with the farmers, and there was a chef in the space who cooked specifically for the farmers.
But after today, we will have to add a few hundred more chefs.
“Knock knock.”
There was a knock on the door, and the guards quickly opened the temple door. It was Darcy and his tribesmen.
Each of them held a stone bowl filled with food.
There was white rice porridge, air-dried meat, and a few unfamiliar vegetarian dishes.
"Miss Jun, the clan leader asked us to make some breakfast and bring it to you."
Jun Shutong looked at the food in the bowl. The food was simple, but clean.
"We've already eaten, so you can eat these!"
It's not that she disdains or doesn't give face. She can tell at a glance that the white rice and dried meat are still the food she supports.
As for those vegetarian dishes, there is no doubt that they are wild vegetables from the mountains. This is the best food they can offer.
"But, Miss Jun..."
Darcy wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jun Yi: "We really have eaten, you can keep these for yourselves."
Seeing that Jun Shutong and others looked like they had eaten, Darcy no longer insisted and had the food brought away.
"Miss Jun, the clan leader asked me to ask you, is 5,000 people going to farm too many people? Will it put a lot of pressure on you?"
How could there be pressure? Her space was so vast, of course the more people the better. If she wasn't afraid of scaring them, she would have wanted to throw tens of thousands of strong laborers in.
"Please rest assured, Chief. There is no pressure. If we don't have enough people, I will talk to you again."
"good."
"Miss Jun, please wait a moment. The clan leader has gathered all the clan members for discussion and will soon select the person you want."
"No hurry, I'll just wait."
Selecting five thousand people is not an easy task. Jun Shutong knew that it would not be completed in a short time, so he led his people out of the temple gate, leaving only two guards to wait for notification.
When I passed by before, I could only see a small area of the Mystical Beast Forest.
When we arrived last night, it was already the middle of the night and we couldn't see the structure and terrain inside the forest clearly.
I have to say that the Kunda people are very good at choosing their living environment.
In this area, there is a thatched house every few dozen meters. The size of the house may depend on the number of people living there.
Each thatched house is built entirely of wood and the roof is covered with various types of thatch.
There was a lot of dry land not far from the house, and the wooden fence around it was in tatters, and it seemed that it had been abandoned for a long time.
She also found several water sources nearby, but they were all stagnant water, probably collected by the orcs during the rain.
"No wonder we can't grow crops. There's not even any rain. Those wild beasts, with nothing to eat, are going to destroy the crops!"
The Mystical Beast Forest has been experiencing severe drought for five consecutive years. There has been some rain during this period, but that little rain is not even enough for people to eat, so how could there be extra water to irrigate the crops?
Darcy had never mentioned the water shortage in front of Jun Shutong. Jun Yi and the others heard about it from other orcs last night.
Jun Shutong also seemed to understand why the elders only allowed two hundred people to help build the road despite having so many idle laborers.
The reason was that they were afraid that there would be too many people, so they would eat too much and there would not be enough food.
After wandering around the Kunda tribe, Jun Shutong calculated that the time was almost up, so he led his men back.
A few hundred meters away from her temple, Jun Shutong was stunned by the dark crowd.
Rows of young orcs with thatched clothes tied around their backs, all bare-chested, stood there holding sticks, twigs, spikes, stone knives and other weapons, giving people a particularly absurd and funny feeling.
[System, tell me the truth, have I traveled back to the Stone Age?]
[Host, can you please have some common sense? They are just backward, not apes. If it were really the Stone Age, how do you explain the many wealthy countries on the Tianxing Continent?]
Jun Shutong blushed a little. Just for a moment, she felt it was unbelievable and asked such a stupid question.
She tilted her head and lowered her voice to ask, "Go and ask who they are going to attack?"
"Didn't you agree to go farming with me? What's wrong? Are you changing your mind?"
Jun Yi wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and was about to ask when she saw Darcy and Chief Rick walking towards them.
And those five thousand "Indians", oh no, five thousand orcs also looked over here.
Being stared at by a hairy, weapon-wielding, dark-skinned man wrapped in straw felt as awkward as being stripped naked and paraded through the streets.
But those eyes were full of enthusiasm and hope, and I couldn't bring myself to say that I was not feeling well.
Jun Shutong smiled and went to greet Chief Rick.
"Chief, are you ready?"
"Yes, Miss Jun, these five thousand people are all strong laborers selected today."
"I just don't know, will there really be work for so many people going there?"
Chief Rick looked worried. He was really afraid that Jun Shutong did this on purpose to ease the survival pressure of the tribe. He was afraid that this little god would be bankrupted by the consequences.
