Chapter 681: The Slave Who Wanted to Escape



Tongshan residential area in autumn.

The stone wall was finally completed, and six stoves not too far apart stood there silently.

On the steps in the center of the courtyard, there is a tall pole erected. Against the backdrop of the courtyard wall, a green bird flag appears extremely tall and flutters slowly in the autumn sun, like clouds spreading out in the blue sky.

From afar, there were sounds coming from a distance, with rhythm and some ethereality.

It was not too far from the Tongshan residential area. Two water mills were pounding the stone mortar tirelessly.

The wind blew, and some yellow leaves fluttered down from the trees. Junior Brother Sha, who was building a stone building, looked at the falling yellow leaves and couldn't help but be dazed.

Autumn is here, and the tribe should have already had the sumptuous autumn feast by now, right?

The crops in the fields have all been harvested and stored in the barn, right? ...

It has been so many days since I left the tribe. Junior Brother Sha, who has been involved in the autumn harvest all these years, couldn't help but start to miss the tribe.

He was not the only one who had such emotions. Many people here had similar emotions.

"Build a house! Once the house is built, we can start digging the land!"

After looking at the direction of the Qingque tribe from afar for a while, Junior Brother Sha raised his voice and spoke.

Once the land is reclaimed, they can also grow food here.

You can also have the harvest-opening banquet and the autumn harvest here, although it is not as large as in the tribe and not as lively as in the big tribes.

After Junior Brother Sha finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but speed up a lot.

Meng bent down, picked up two stones and put them into the basket.

It took a while to put the two small stones in place.

After placing the stones, he did not immediately carry the load into the wall, but instead took the hook and fiddled with the rope on the hook, as if he was repairing the hook.

After doing this for a while, he started to carry the load and walked into the courtyard.

I didn't walk fast on the road, but rather leisurely.

In the time it took him to transport one load of stones, the others had already transported two loads.

In fact, Meng really wanted to destroy the tools in his hands, because it was because of these tools that he needed to work every day.

But he didn't dare, because the people who stayed here had terrifyingly sharp weapons, and they also had bows and arrows that could shoot very far.

He still clearly remembered the scene when the witch in the tribe was killed.

He was worried that he would be severely punished if he destroyed such a tool.

Meng doesn't like his current life. Although he can eat his fill every day and doesn't have to worry about going hungry, the heavy daily labor makes him extremely uncomfortable.

Under the heavy work, he began to miss his previous hunting life.

Although I sometimes didn’t have enough to eat back then, life was still relatively easy and I didn’t have to work as hard as I do now.

This kind of nostalgia had already arisen when I was in the Qingque tribe.

After seeing that Long Legs, who used to be a good friend of his, was lucky enough to become a citizen of the tribe and was responsible for managing himself and others, while he was still a slave, he gradually developed such thoughts and began to miss his previous life.

You know, in the tribes in the past, the status of long legs was not as high as his.

However, he did not dare to reveal anything when he was in the big tribe.

One reason was that there were too many people in the big tribe, and the other was that after arriving at the Qingque tribe, they worked in the fields around the tribe and had never been anywhere farther, so they didn’t know what the situation was like around them.

Thirdly, there is the Son of God in the tribe.

The Son of God did not look strong, and was kind to others, smiling most of the time. But for some reason, Meng was afraid of this Son of God in her heart.

It is much more frightening than fearing the person who always likes to hold a bow and arrow and can shoot something from a long distance.

But now it is different, now he is far away from the big tribe.

There is no intimidating Son of God here.

Here, the number of citizens was not much greater than that of slaves.

Here was the cave he was familiar with, where he had lived for many years.

He was very familiar with many places around the cave.

He felt that if he chose to escape at this time, it would be a very good choice.

Even after escaping, he had already thought about where he would live. He knew the locations of two empty caves that had been conquered by their tribe.

After escaping, living in a place like that is a good choice.

Moreover, autumn had arrived and many fruits were ripe, so he didn't have to worry about food while escaping.

Meng was thinking about this thing in his mind, which made him shudder unconsciously.

He cast his eyes on a few people not far away who were also carrying stones.

These people, like him, were slaves.

People always tend to look at others from their own perspective, and the primitive man Meng is no exception.

He did not like this kind of hard labor, and he felt that these fellow slaves disliked this kind of work as much as he did.

Meng planned to secretly tell these people his thoughts, and then take these people who were once part of the same tribe and escape together, leave the tribe, and leave these heavy labors.

He felt that after hearing this news, these people would be very happy to follow him and escape from here.

In fact, they had had this idea a long time ago, but just like him, they didn't dare to tell others.

It was necessary to bring these people along, because if not, it would be unreliable for him to live alone outside.

Even Meng has thought about his life after escaping.

He had memorized the shapes of the bows and arrows in the tribe very well. He once made one in secret, but destroyed it soon after.

With such a terrible weapon, he felt that they would live very well after they got out.

In addition to hunting becoming easier, they can also use bows and arrows to attack other tribes, so they will not go hungry and can eat meat.

This is actually what Meng is extremely puzzled about.

This tribe obviously has a large population and powerful weapons, but they don't plunder other tribes for food, but insist on obtaining food through such tiring labor...

Time passed quickly and it was already night in a blink of an eye.

After a day of hard work, everyone felt very tired, but as they looked at the house that was gradually taking shape through their hard work, they felt a sense of pride in their hearts.

When many people were fast asleep, Meng reached out and woke up the companion sleeping beside him...
