Chapter 416 The Bronze Age (Part 2)

With the personal command of the Bull Totem, this year's spring ploughing results are better than last year's. What is more valuable is that more than half of last year's yellow millet is still left, which is more than enough to last until autumn.

This situation has little to do with the intensive farming proposed by the Fifth Xuan. The main reason is that too many seeds were scattered.

If the destruction of wild beasts can be eliminated, even if the seeds are scattered randomly, it can support the entire Fire Tribe Alliance.

The land is too vast, and there are too few people. This is the current situation of this world and the reason for this situation.

Maybe the number of people here was not so small originally, but after the cleansing of the ice age, the Dragon Tribe fought against the Ice Bear Tribe, and then the Fire Tribe fought against the remnants of the Dragon Tribe, and the Fire Tribe fought against the Sword Tribe Alliance.

Due to natural causes and three battles, enough primitive people died, which may be the reason why the tribes in the current Fire Tribe Alliance can accept the various changes made by the Fifth Xuan.

Even the barbaric primitive people would not feel at peace when each tribe suffered a large number of casualties and when they could see the earth covered with human blood when they went out.

Such an environment gave the Fifth Xuan ample opportunity for transformation, allowing him to pull out the tribes from their individual beliefs and blend them into a complex belief system, which was included in the Fire Tribe Alliance.

It is a long road to achieve unity in faith, but both the Fifth Xuan and the witches have reached a consensus on this point, including some tribes close to the Fire Tribe, who also agree to do so.

For example, the Wolf Tribe, the Sound Tribe, the Sun Tribe, etc. have begun to worship the Fire Totem first and their own totems second.

The consequence of this is that the Fifth Xuan absorbs more and more power of faith, while the power of the others is relatively weakened, but the Fifth Xuan can replenish them through the thick fog of the Bagua space, including the Wolf Totem.

In this way, the Fifth Xuan is equivalent to a receiver of faith, and he has the ability to independently control these beliefs, and can distribute the power or choose to possess it alone.

This made the Wolf Totem, Sound Totem, Sun Totem, etc. all controlled by the Fifth Xuan. The Moon Totem, Knife Totem, and Ox Totem were very scared, fearing that the Fifth Xuan would force them to implement this set of worship methods.

But the Fifth Xuan did not do so. They did not know why he did not do so, but this incident was enough to scare them.

The Fifth Xuan did not do so because he felt that it was not yet time, and it was not difficult to forcibly twist the totems, especially the totems in the Bagua space, whose life and death were under his control.

But if the many totems outside joined hands to launch a rebellion, it would be enough to overthrow the entire Fire Tribe Alliance.

Instead of making a sudden change, it is better to wait for the right time to act. The Fifth Xuan has plenty of time and he can afford to wait.

Spring goes to summer solstice, summer goes to autumn, and it is the season for harvesting millet.

The Xingchen tribe and the Chun tribe began to predict the weather early. After confirming that the heavy snowstorm would not come early, everyone followed the order of the ox totem and waited for the millet to be fully ripe before harvesting.

When the entire harvest season was completed and the granary was filled with fresh millet again, all the witches and leaders decided to celebrate for three days.

Huodu, Xicheng, Longcheng, and Donghaicheng celebrated together, with unlimited supply of millet, barbecue, frozen fish, and salt.

Three days of relaxation and rest swept away everyone's fatigue, and even the depression since the arrival of the ice age seemed to have passed away with this relaxation.

Soon after this day, many women became pregnant, and some of these women's husbands were not around, which caused a lot of chaos in the tribe.

With the gradual emergence of private ownership, people began to pay more attention to the concept of family, so the problem caused by this incident was still quite serious, and finally the chief justice had to come forward to mediate.

There was no provision in this regard in the law designed by the Fifth Xuan, so the chief justice could not find a solution for a while.

In the end, the Fifth Xuan discussed with the Code Totem and gave the final result:

those who are willing to raise their own children will be given partial subsidies by the tribe, and those who are unwilling can wait until the child is born and send it to a specially set up orphanage.

With such subsidies, most people finally calmed down, but some people still chose to divorce. This may be the earliest wave of divorces in the Fire Tribe Alliance.

Although this incident caused great turmoil in the Fire Tribe Alliance, it is not without benefits. At least many tribes were disrupted because of this incident, especially those families who chose to divorce, most of them no longer stayed in their own tribes.

Diwu Xuan, who had been plotting to disrupt the tribal situation, even wanted to do it again, but after thinking about it, he gave up this tempting idea.

It's too late, there is still time, don't be too anxious.

The climate entered the coldest season, and the people of the Fire Tribe began to build the altar again. This winter, the altar of the Fire Tribe was raised by two floors, reaching the sixth floor and fifty-four steps.

Standing at an altitude of 54 meters, not only can you have a bird's eye view of the Fire Tribe, but you can even see the border farther away when the weather is good.

The miraculous building that the Fifth Xuan built with all his heart finally took shape.

Spring is here, and it is the season for spring plowing. The Ox Totem is still the chief commander, and all the people in the Fire Tribe cooperate.

With the experience of the previous two years, this year's farming was arranged in an orderly manner by the Ox Totem, and his performance this time was unanimously praised by all the totems.

The Eighth Generation of Shamans saw that there was nothing to worry about, and that the grain in the granary was unusually abundant, so he thought about further expanding the influence of the Fire Tribe Alliance.

All along, many of the Eighth Generation of Shamans' ideas were very close to the Fifth Xuan's thinking.

In diplomacy, their ideas were at odds with the Moon Totem, and they preferred to be gentle.

It was not easy for any tribe to survive in such an ice age, and after the Fire Tribe Alliance settled in the center of the continent, it had the responsibility to develop this place better.

So the messengers were scattered by the eighth generation witch and moved to the corners of the Fire Tribe Alliance, telling them that in the difficult winter, they could come to the Fire Tribe to work in exchange for food.

This news spread, and many small tribes came over mountains and rivers. By autumn, more than 10,000 people came.

It was not over yet. In late winter, another wave suddenly came, and many hungry tribes with nowhere to find food came. The number of people exceeded 10,000 in two months, and it was not until the spring of the following year that it improved.

In the spring of the following year, the Eighth Generation Witch sent out messengers again, and these messengers were all newcomers to the Fire Tribe. They returned to the place where they used to live to publicize the policies of the Fire Tribe Alliance.

It was also in this year that the construction of the city wall in West City was completed. It was fifty steps wide and three feet high, which was a great building in this era.

And those who participated in the construction of the city wall had been exhausted to death.

The Eighth Generation Witch went to West City in person and saw the grandeur of the city wall and the half-dead city builders.

Without the consent of the Moon Totem, the Eighth Generation Witch announced on the spot that more than ten thousand people had gained freedom and personally took them back to the Fire Tribe.

This made the Moon Totem very dissatisfied. She ordered the leader of the Moon Tribe to stop the Eighth Generation Witch, but was rejected. Then she ordered the Moon Witch to stop it, and she agreed.

The Eighth Generation Witch was intercepted by the Moon Witch and his men. The city builders were taken back by the Moon Witch, but they released the Eighth Generation Witch. However, the Eighth Generation Witch did not choose to leave.

He quietly returned to West City, communicated with the tribes in the city, directly instigated many tribes to rebel, and launched a riot in West City.

When the Fifth Xuan got the news, the war was over. The Moon Tribe failed because most of the warriors were controlled by the leader and did not participate in the war. The Eighth Generation Witch returned to the Fire City with a bloodthirsty gun.

When the news reached the Fifth Xuan, after confirming it again and again, the Fifth Xuan directly awakened the Moon Totem, broke her misty phantom on the spot, and sent Chief Justice Shihe to go to West City specifically.

All those who participated in intercepting the Eighth Generation Witch were executed, and all the tribes that helped the Moon Totem resist the Eighth Generation Witch were annihilated.

It was the first time that the Fire Totem used his power wantonly in the alliance, which really shocked all the totems.

After this rebellion, the Moon Totem was completely imprisoned by the Fifth Xuan.

West City needed a new leader, and the Ox Totem took the initiative to ask for the position, but the Fifth Xuan refused on the grounds that he was indispensable for large-scale farming.

He originally intended to choose the Mi Tribe, because the Mi Tribe had been doing well recently, but the time for fighting was getting longer and longer, and West City had been built for many years, and there seemed to be no war at present, so the Mi Tribe could fully take on the role.

But the Mi Tribe did have hidden dangers, which made it difficult for him to make a decision for a while. At this time, the Snake Tribe, which arrived last winter, took the initiative to ask for the position, and was willing to defend West City for the Fire Tribe Alliance.

Diwu Xuan thought about it and finally agreed to let the Snake Tribe move westward and change the name of West City to Xi'an, which means stability and prosperity.

The Moon Tribe was completely dismantled and returned to the model of the Moon Totem Tribe, led by the leader of the Moon Totem Tribe.

This incident was recorded by the Tapir Witch as the West City Incident, and the details were recorded on the animal skin scroll. Every time Diwu Xuan read it, he still felt angry and annoyed by the Moon Totem's restlessness.

Fortunately, there were no problems in Dragon City and Donghai City. Sun Totem was very smart to learn from Diwu Xuan to build Dragon City. At the same time, he would ask Diwu Xuan for advice every time there was a major event, and he was quite cautious.

After Donghai City was settled, Diwu Xuan had let it go. The Stag Totem had been doing well all along, and there were no problems.

After the snake totem entered Xi'an, it quickly calmed down the turmoil in Xi'an and made Xi'an completely calm. After

a few days of thinking, the fifth Xuan, who had settled down, began to promote the emergence of private ownership. He did not do it all at once, but pushed forward little by little.

First of all, there will be no more centralized food supply. Food will be distributed to households, according to the number of people in each household, and more will be deliberately distributed, so that each household will have surplus food for trading.

Nowadays, there are not many items worth trading, nothing more than salt, animal skins, animal meat, pottery, and linen clothes.

The first three are okay, but the latter two are completely luxury goods. They were previously only supplied to the upper echelons of the tribe in limited quantities, but for the sake of private ownership, the fifth Xuan began to open up the market.

Such a change made the tribe members at a loss at first, but when the Fifth Xuan, through the Eighth Generation Witch, asked the orphanage to organize the children to make some wooden handicrafts to sell in exchange for animal meat, the situation gradually began to improve.

The first to take action was the Yin tribe, who began to make simple bone flutes for sale and exchanged for a large number of pottery.

Later, a wood tribe in the spirit map realm showed its power and imitated a large number of wooden dolls produced by the orphanage in exchange for a small amount of linen clothes and pottery.

With them taking the lead, everyone finally began to show their abilities, using their own methods of production or hunting to start exchanging with people around them.

During this period, a tribe actually tried to hire servants to mass-produce inferior wooden dolls. Diwu Xuan was surprised at the time, but he quickly struck down the tribe and did not dare to let this too advanced method come into being.

He was carefully controlling the pace of the advancement of private ownership, fearing that a wrong step would lead to a deviation in the atmosphere of the entire tribe.

Spring and summer alternate, autumn and winter change, and there is a cycle of the four seasons. Time is always ticking forward, and the Fire Tribe Alliance is developing rapidly under the careful control of Diwu Xuan.

The great fusion of the tribes is proceeding slowly and steadily under the eyes of Diwu Xuan.

The third volume of the era of the tribes is finished.
