Chapter 100 100. Fire of Civilization
Opening up wasteland is a road of no return.
No matter who you are, you must be mentally prepared to face death.
Death from freezing or illness is considered normal death. Death at the hands of wild animals or poisonous snakes is also normal. Various accidents can happen at any time. Some people are crushed to death by trees while cutting wood, and some people are drowned while fishing. Even if you accidentally fall and hit your head on a rock, you can die.
Despite the difficulties, people have no intention of leaving as long as there is enough food.
The love for the land far outweighs the fear of death.
Even if he had to live in the wind and rain like a wild beast, he would not hesitate . After the news of the lord's arrival spread, many people gathered to watch.
There wasn't much emotion on anyone's face, neither hatred nor love.
The people were disheveled and looked exhausted.
For the sake of salt and farm tools, they waited quietly for the lord to speak.
Without further ado, Lowe quietly took out the saw and tent, and immediately received support and cheers from the people. Although the quantity was small, they were the most scarce supplies.
Especially saws, people can learn how to use them almost without any instruction.
Two strong men pulled the wood left and right in coordination, and in a few minutes they cut the wood into two pieces. The cuts were neat, and the efficiency was several times higher! "Lord!" Lars hurried over and bowed.
After not seeing him for a while, he looked much older, with a beard full of stubble that he hadn't had time to trim. He was also thinner.
His chestnut hair was disheveled, and he looked more like a tramp than a gentleman.
"Thank you for your hard work." Lovi nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Bruno, I am going to be transferred back to Donggang City. Do you want to go back with me or stay here?"
"I, I want to go back with the teacher." Lars hesitated slightly and lowered his head deeply.
The living conditions here were too bad. If he hadn't been worried that the teacher couldn't survive here alone, he would have left long ago.
"It's okay." Lovi patted Las's shoulder without caring: "Let's hand over the work."
Lars took Lowe towards Tian Mo.
Looking around, neatly planned fields stretch all the way to the end of the sight.
Each plot is a standard one acre in size.
The allocation has not started yet, and it is expected that unified arrangements will be made once the division is completed.
"Where is the water source?" Lowe asked.
"There are only two safe water sources nearby. One is a pond right inside the camp. The other is a lake two kilometers away." Las raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
Lovi stood with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance: "Why did you choose this mound as your camp?"
"There is a natural cave on this mound. There is water on the mountain, open-pit coal at the foot of the mountain, and it is relatively sheltered from the wind." Las explained reasonably.
Luo Wei's idea moved, and he immediately took people down the mountain to check.
In the low-lying part of the hill, between the angles of two mounds, there was indeed a piece of black land with no grass growing on it, and black coal chunks were scattered everywhere on the ground.
He casually turned up the soil with a shovel and confirmed that there was still a black coal layer underneath. Lovey felt genuine joy in his heart.
Yes, that's it! After Lars left, it was already noon.
Lovi finished his meditation and walked out of Zoe's cabin.
It took three hours for my spirit to recover to its full state, the sluggishness in thinking disappeared, and now is the most clear-headed time.
"Aka." He shouted to the girl squatting outside the door.
"Master, let's go hunting too." Aka stood up with his hands on his knees.
It was so boring here, there was no one to talk to. There was not even an ant on the mountain. Besides practicing martial arts, she only spent her time writing on the ground.
“There’s no shortage of people for hunting.”
Lowe summoned all the guards and assembled them in the open space next to the camp.
At this time, some people had already followed Bruno away, leaving only thirty people, all of whom were the ones who escorted the supplies most recently.
As they were not tortured by the rainy season, everyone looked pretty good. But they were inevitably a little reluctant and eager to know when they could leave.
Morale available!
Lowe gave direct orders to organize people to mine coal and collect clay.
Compared to inefficient logging, burning bricks and building houses is more direct.
Next, relying on these thirty people, thousands of people were successfully mobilized. The direction of the entire reclamation camp changed. In the primeval forest.
Lodel and Zoe chase a wounded bear together.
Despite the huge size disparity between the two sides, the wild bear had no room to resist and ran into the depths of the forest without looking back, just like a frightened rabbit.
Under normal circumstances, perhaps Lodel would not have kept chasing, but today she was very angry.
With a flash of his body, the sword pierced through the prey's spine.
She mercilessly finished off the bear, letting it struggle and wail on the ground. The flying blood was blocked by the transparent flame, not a drop of it stained her clothes.
Lodel would not feel any psychological burden in killing bear-like beasts.
Only the victims know how cruel bears can be.
Bears like to eat their prey alive. They gnaw on their prey bit by bit until it dies a long time later. So there is a saying: killing someone with a bear is worse than being tortured to death.
The two men waited on the spot for the logistics personnel to cut up the bear meat, marinate it in salt, and take it away.
Unfortunately, the quality of its golden brown fur has been reduced due to several wounds on its back.
"Dale, when can I go back?" Zoe asked absentmindedly.
She heard that Bruno and Lars had left, and that a Limit Breaker was coming. She thought that the rotation of garrisons would be mentioned soon, but no one had brought it up yet.
"I'm sorry, you can't leave for the time being." Lodel told Zoe that Aka was a personal maid and according to regulations she could not leave her master.
Zoe said angrily, "I want to be a maid too! Why didn't you ask me? I was the first one here! Why?!"
"Maid, you are required to be pure."
"Don't you know whether I am pure or not? You can check it at any time."
"Maids need to know etiquette and be able to read."
"I can learn all these. It's not a problem. I can write."
"Maid, the age must be appropriate."
"I'm not that far behind, only five or six years older!"
"The most important thing is that the owner must like you. Lovi doesn't like you."
Zoe was silent, and punched the tree with hatred. Her strong arms that could pull a strong bow were not much thinner than the boy's legs.
I have to admit that her face is pretty good, at least around 85 points.
If his body wasn't so exaggerated, Lowe might have made a move.
After the two returned to the camp, Lodel went to the pond to wash her sword, and Zoe found Lovey.
"I can't stay here any longer. I want to go home."
"I appoint you as the mayor of Adventure Town."
"I don't want to. I want to go back."
"Okay, we'll rotate once a month, and I'll find someone to replace you then."
Luo Wei calmed Zoe down with a few casual words. Now his mind was not on the girl at all.
Carts of gray limestone were piled in front of us.
He picked up a piece at random and looked at it in front of his eyes.
