let go of that priestess

"Huh? Cultivate the barren land?"

Lu Gong was taken aback for another moment, and opened his mouth: "Could it be that my lord is planning to farm there!?"

"Of course, don't be surprised." Ji Cheng shrugged: "The sides of the road that were built with great difficulty must be used."

"But... how to do this?"

Lu Gong frowned: "It's arid all around. Do you need to use a lot of water? Where did you get the water from?..."

"Huh." Ji Cheng was a little surprised by Lu Gong's reaction, he thought that the other party would say that the Lord sent a miracle or something.

Well, thinking has slowly changed.

"The solution you said just now is correct, it is indeed to use water, but there is not only a problem of drought, but also a problem of saline-alkali land.

So I thought about it and planned to build an underground reservoir in the future. I also thought of an excellent location for the address of the reservoir——

The former holy land of the Dayue Clan, Baqiedong.

After you lead the team to repair the Salt Lake area, you will go around a little and go to Baqie Cave to repair. "

"Ah, an underground water reservoir? Okay, anyway, my lord, you have already figured out a way."

Lu Gong scratched his head: "The location of the Baqie Cave is really only a little bit around, it's not in the way, then I will lead the team to repair it there later, if it is on the side of the Council Hall..."

"There is no need to worry about this. I will go back and talk to the chief later. How long do you estimate it will take to repair the eight cut holes?"

"this."

Lu Gong thought about it carefully and said, "Up to two months, next spring."

"it is good."

Ji Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He understood that in two months, after the road was built to Baqiedong, it was almost time to encounter the bear and deer tribe.

At that time, peaceful exchanges will be the priority, but force will not be given up.

Damimura is finally about to take the first step to actively expand outward.

Chapter 226 What is the relationship between us......

"Lord Honglian! The letter said that the village has developed an airship to replace us in the air support work of the third route. We will continue to search and invite the barbarian tribes in the future!"

In the convoy where Damimura went out to search, Jiang Lulu and Honglian who turned into a human body were sitting on the roof of a car, shaking their legs.

Honglian blinked when she heard the words: "Airship? What is that?"

"Well, it is said that Sir's new magic made a thing called a new type of lightweight material, and then used this to make a manned aircraft.

No, here's an accompanying picture. "

"Oh." Hong Lian leaned over to take a look, then glanced at Jiang Lulu, noticing her expression:

"You seem very excited? Sure enough, you are very interested in flying?"

"Well! But that's only part of the reason."

Jiang Lulu raised her head, and said a little embarrassedly: "The auxiliary mission of building roads can't fly around like this, so..."

"Oh~ so it's more fun to search for barbarian tribes everywhere, this arrangement is just what you want."

Hong Lian understood, helped her to finish speaking, smiled and said:

"And what kind of airship is this, and it certainly can't do all kinds of flying stunts like me."

"Yes! That's why I like Guren-sama the most!"

"Hmm~"

Looking at Jiang Lulu's bright eyes, Honglian knew that she really liked her.

but......

After a pause, Honglian reversed the position of her feet back and forth, took a light breath, and asked what she had been holding back for a while.

"Lulu, if, I mean, if, I can't fly in the future, will you still like me so much?"

"Eh?"

"What's wrong......"

Seeing that the other party was stunned, Hong Lian didn't speak, and her expression tensed up slightly.

He looked at Jiang Lulu for a moment, then retracted his gaze, turned to his own toes, and exerted a little force with his hands.

"Just tell the truth, if I can't fly, what's the relationship between us?..."

"Uh, friend, Master Guren didn't say that, can I treat you as a friend?......"

Jiang Lulu came back to her senses and replied nervously.

Later, it was discovered that Master Honglian seemed to be nervous too?

She was stunned again, then mustered up her courage, stretched her hand forward, and finally grabbed Honglian's hand, and actively met her eyes.

"Master Honglian, aren't we already friends now?"

"right?"

"of course!"

Jiang Lulu's heart was pounding, and she said seriously:

"No matter what the reason is, if you can't fly, I think Guren-sama will be very sad.

Then I will use all my contribution points to buy an extra-large airship from the adults, and we will still fly together in the future!

If the contribution points are not enough, I will..."

"Just work hard and save enough?" Honglian raised her head, looked at Jiang Lulu, her face flushed slightly: "I also have some contribution points."

"Ah, then let's buy together!"

"Stupid... the airship doesn't work well, and it's impossible for me not to fly."

Honglian turned her head: "But this assumption, I will keep it in mind. What you said just now is really true, right?"

"En." Jiang Lulu responded, clenching her hands a little.

After a while, her cheeks slowly warmed up, and at the same time, she slowly staggered her five fingers, changing into a ten-finger interlocking appearance, then moved her body, pressed into the distance, and whispered:

"Master Honglian, actually, you... can feel it yourself."

"cough......"

"..."

"..."

"Ah! Me, where were we talking before? That's right... We said that we will continue to search for the invited barbarian tribe in the future.

But even so, the back of the letter said that the adults still let us go back first. "

"Huh? Huh? That's right, why did my best friend ask us to go back? Just wait for this wave of convoys to find cotton, and we will go back with the convoy?"

"Yes, my lord asked us to fix it, and then we also participated in the award ceremony at the end of winter. We are all on the award list. It is said that the credit for discovering cotton is directly related to us."

"Huh? Is that so?"

Honglian blinked, and her best friend even praised herself, which surprised her a little.

But right now, she seemed to have a vague understanding of her best friend's intentions.

Looking at Jiang Lulu, and then looking in the direction of Damu Village, Hong Lian's eyes flashed softly.

Different races have different life spans. I was very scared about this before, but my best friend gave his answer.

Do you feel alone now?No.

And if she opened her heart and regarded herself as a member of Oki Village, maybe after that, she wouldn't feel lonely.

Not only will you always protect your best friend, but you will also always protect Oki Village.

Dear friend, thank you...

Hong Lian pursed her lips, feeling her eyes were slightly hot, and her heart was also warm.

"Well! Let's go back to participate in the award ceremony at the end of winter. Didn't my best friend say that cotton is super useful? We have made great achievements! We deserve it!"

......

......

As the days entered deep winter, Damu Village had a heavy snowfall as in previous years.

With warming measures, food reserves, and large wooden houses with fireplaces, the villagers have gradually weakened their previous fear of winter.

Although it is still cold in winter, everyone is more interested in enjoying the beautiful snowflakes falling in the sky.

Ji Cheng, who had nothing to do recently, even organized the villagers to hold the first snowball fight competition——

A competition field has been drawn outside the village, surrounded by safety nets.

The center line is divided in the middle of the field, and on the middle section of the center line stands a central barrier made of snow.

The fields on both sides are symmetrical, and there is a No. [-] guard, and then there is a No. [-] guard, and finally there is a home plate near the bottom line.

The textile factory made 24 red and blue headscarves, and the villagers who played had to choose the red team or the blue team to wear the corresponding colored headscarves.

Then the red and blue teams each occupy a half and attack each other with snowballs.

Relying on strategy to outsmart or make a strong breakthrough is fine. In short, whoever throws ten snowballs to the opponent's home base first will win.

"How about it, the first public entertainment facility in Damu Village, not bad~"

Ji Cheng and Jiang Hongdou sat on the viewing platform, watching

"It's the men's competition now, do you want to play in the women's competition later?"

"Hmm..." Jiang Hongdou's expression was very hesitant. It could be seen that he really wanted to play, but in the end he shook his head:

"Yes, I'm out of manners, forget it..."

"Oh, didn't you pay attention to the manners of the saint last time?"

"But there's also Chief Manners..."

"We're all the same when we're not working. It's all right. Today is a day off."

"If you persuade me again, I can't help it!"

Jiang Hongdou stared and said: "You seem to be really idle recently, just thinking about how to play, the flying sword last time was also..."

"Cough! Just think about how to play whatever it is called."

Ji Cheng put on a serious face, and said seriously: "The decision was made after careful consideration.

I think the mentality and thoughts of the villagers are very good now!

You see, more entertainment facilities can enrich our daily life and make us happy, and we no longer feel afraid in winter.

There are no priestesses to worship the gods, and no one cries about God's punishment anymore. What does this mean?

The 'new belief' and materialist ideology vigorously promoted by our Ministry of Education have achieved good results!

That day I Yujian went to inspect the front line of the construction of the third road, and Lu Gong's reaction made me feel this too.

And you also know that in two months, we will probably take the first step in our outward expansion. "

"Uh..." Jiang Hongdou was stunned for a moment, thinking about it carefully, and then looking at Ji Cheng's expression, his face became more serious.

"The next tribal integration?"

"I won't show up anymore, and follow the normal process now, just like the barbarian tribe."

Ji Cheng said: "Big tribes are nothing more than having more beliefs, but as long as they don't violate the regulations of Damu Village, we allow multiple beliefs to coexist."

"Ah."

Jiang Hongdou nodded, looking back at the fierce snowball fight below.
