The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 410 Return of the Flower Snake
  "The leader of the flower snake is back!! The leader of the flower snake is back!!"

A shout like silver bells rang out in Green Lake Town, and with this clear and happy voice, a young man ran towards the top of the mountain like a fly.

Before the young hobgoblin arrived at the stone castle where the patriarch Allen was, the sound had already invaded Allen, who was taking a rare rest on the balcony. At that time, Allen jumped up from the wooden chair, flew into the sky and directly looked down at Bai Shi. He searched the surrounding land, trying to find the figure of the flower snake.

There were many tribesmen in the town who heard the call of the young goblin at the same time. Some had joy on their faces, some were thoughtful, and some were completely indifferent, as if they had never heard the name of the flower snake. However, this is no wonder for those tribesmen. Hua She has been traveling for more than ten years. For many tribesmen who are very forgetful, when they suddenly hear his name, they are more or less confused before they want to go. With Hua She's appearance, not to mention that the clan's population has more than doubled in recent years, none of these people have ever seen Hua She or accepted his leadership.

Soon, Allen locked onto a lonely figure more than ten miles away from the south gate of the town, and then Allen flew away through the air.

Speaking of which, Allen himself was very worried about Hua Snake's delay in returning. He was worried about whether Hua Snake had encountered any accidents during his travels and adventures, and at the same time he was afraid that Hua Snake would be bribed and abandoned by powerful tribes outside. The Greenfield Tribe is the tribe that gives birth and supports him.

In Allen's mind, the tribesmen who grew up with him, such as Flower Snake, Stone, and Dashan, have another meaning. Especially the stone that died early, and the flower snake who regarded himself as a target and constantly chased his figure, occupied the softest part of Allen's heart.

"watch out!!!"

Before the Allens arrived, the voice and sword wind were one step ahead of him and shot directly at the shabby and ragged figure of the flower snake.

Ding ding! ! Ding ding! !
  The two thin swords flew like a storm, shuttled back and forth on Allen's dark golden bone-cutting sword. In the sound of fine collisions, the power of Allen's legendary heavy slash was constantly being melted and eroded, and it was blurred in pursuit of the flower snake. The figure's movements lost its threat a little bit.

The flower snake kept tapping the ground with its legs, drawing a shadow, with seriousness in its eyes. Just after receiving a heavy slash from Allen, he took advantage of Allen's opportunity to retract his sword and gather momentum. His body suddenly stopped retreating, and in an instant he completed the action of retreating and lunging forward. Two points flashed. The earth's light pierced directly into Allen's tiger eyes.

"Hahaha, good time!!"

Allen was not surprised but overjoyed. The bone-cutting sword was placed in front of him. The broad sword might be used as a shield to protect his eyes behind him.

The expected thrust did not come, and Allen felt a chill in his heart. He rounded the bone cutter on the spot, and the sweep was completed quickly, and he swept behind him without looking back.

Ding Ding! !
  Two stabbing sounds sounded, and there was a stinging pain in Allen's back. The flower snake that had just jumped forward took advantage of the brief gap when Allen's bone cutter was held in front of him, blocking his sight, and quietly turned back to Ai After Lun's death. Although Allen reacted very quickly and protected his neck and head with the wide attack range of his sword slash, he was also stabbed between the gaps in the armor on his back by the flower snake's two swords.

Fortunately, the blade of the Flower Snake was retracted after it touched the skin, and it did not cause too much damage to Allen. However, the results of the battle at this time have already established that the Flower Snake's skill and strength is second only to Allen in the Green Field Tribe. .

"...You are much more powerful!!"

Allen, who was injured by Flower Snake during the fight, did not have any shame or anger on his face at this time. In the short fight, he had already figured out the current strength of Flower Snake. Although he was a little regretful that Flower Snake did not achieve his goal of traveling, However, Allen would not show it just yet. Instead, after putting away the Bone Cutter, he sincerely praised Hua Shen.

“But I still haven’t found the legendary road!!”

Hua She's face was calm, and there was no emotion of excitement or frustration. There was only the warmth of returning to his hometown and the slight happiness of meeting old friends.

"I think you are only a few steps away from being a legend. Now that you are back at home and sort out your experiences and gains during these years of traveling, you may be able to find your own path to legend soon."

What else could Allen say, except for a few words of comfort and praise, he then changed the subject in another direction.

"Let's go, let's see what kind of garbage you are wearing now. Go back and wash up quickly. I have a very good set of leather armor in my collection, and I thought I would keep it for you..."

"...Ever since you left, a bunch of bastards in this town have not been worried at all..."

It's rare that Allen, a stuffy man, talked a lot today in order to enlighten Hua She, but also because of the joy of his old friend's return. After putting a hand on Hua She's shoulder, the two of them walked to the town arm in arm. Go in.

Along the way, I met several cheerful young people like Kerr, Martha, and Duncan. Although these young people have now begun to serve as the middle-level leaders of the clan and have gained some power, they will not be able to survive after the return of Hua Snake, the teacher and father. Sometimes, they still show the excitement they had when they were young.

"Abba!!"

"teacher!!"

Of course, when you grow up, you can no longer just jump into your father's arms like you used to. The three children's nervous and excited eyes drifted straight to the flower snake, but they restrained their movements very reservedly, and softly shouted to their father. The title, just two words, revealed the endless longing of several young people.

"All grown up, not bad!!! Not bad!!!"

Hua She was also pleased, her eyes were like nails, directly nailed on the bodies of several young people, no matter how she looked at them, she felt that she couldn't get enough. Especially Duncan, who inherited the talent of Flower Snake. Now he is 12 years old and is already a level sword dancer. His broad shoulders and bright pupils are full of vitality. His face looks exactly like that of Flower Snake. He is absolutely a flower snake. A replica of a snake.

A few people walked slowly towards the town. Compared with when Hua She left, the current area of ​​Green Lake Town has expanded by more than one circle. In the past, there was only a village wall with a north gate, but now there is an avenue that runs from north to south. , and at the same time, another gate was opened in the south to facilitate the increasing number of caravan traders and tourists.

The scene in the alleyway was still vaguely familiar, and from time to time someone stretched out his head to say hello to the flower snake. Everything seemed a little strange. Even in front of his own stone house, the scene seemed very different from what he remembered.

Standing in front of the door to greet Hua Snake was his bugbear consort Sha Li. At this time, Sha Li had two lines of tears on her cheeks. Her thick body had to lean on the door to stand firm. Her trembling hands showed the depth of her heart. Excited. “…You’re back, are you hungry? I’ve prepared your favorite fried noodles for you!!”

Thousands of words were turned into a simple and warm word of care, which could touch the softest place in the heart of a prodigal who has been traveling for more than ten years. The flower snake, whose nasal cavity was somewhat blocked, could only hum with a thick nasal voice in the end. voice, responding to the partner's concern: "Yeah, okay!!"

Allen, who was originally going to have a chat with Hua She, suddenly felt a little moved when he saw the scene in front of him. Then he stopped walking towards the door of Hua She's house and blocked Shusheng and several young goblins in front of the door. He just watched. After Huahua Snake and his family of five approached the stone house, Allen waved his hand to signal them to disperse.

Allen himself simply withdrew and flew back to the stone castle of the heavy sword. Suddenly he was in the mood to be gentle with his partner. In broad daylight, waves of suppressed moans could be faintly heard from the stone castle on the top of the mountain.

Two days later, Hua She took the initiative to communicate with Allen. He was accompanied by Mauro and several others who had returned from Mumapo. They all ate, drank and chatted in Allen's stone castle. Of course, the main reason is that everyone is curious about Hua She's life outside for more than ten years, and they keep asking about his past experiences.

"...The last opponent I challenged before coming back was a Devilsaur with the blood of a fire dragon. When he opens his mouth, he can spit out a powerful flame dragon breath, which can burn the body and turn the skin into charcoal on the spot. …”

"...Finally, I used my two swords to perform a stunt, sacrificing my body skin, only protecting my head, and passed through the devil dragon's breath, through its throat, and then I It kills..."

"...At the end of the day, I was swept away by the dying Devilsaur and flew dozens of meters away. I almost failed to recover the Devilsaur's body..."

Hua Snake was not stingy about his own experiences, and lightly used the past life-and-death struggles as topics for today's conversation, and told them to the few old friends in front of him. Not only did they cause everyone to cry out urgently, they all sighed for Hua She's repeated encounters. .

Allen also knew that the thrilling experiences told from Hua She's mouth were actually one thousand percent less thrilling than the real dangers he faced. Hua She, who seemed calm and composed now, might have just left when they were fighting. One wrong step and you will become one of the countless dead souls in the wilderness.

It's just a pity that Hua Snake put in countless efforts and exhausted all his courage, fighting spirit and wisdom, but in the end he still failed to break through and find the path to legend. As Flower Snake gets older, the chance of him breaking through and embarking on the path of legend becomes lower. After all, the goblin bloodline is not an elf and does not have a lifespan of two to three hundred years. If they cannot advance to legend after their short period of glory, the following days will be Really just waiting to die slowly.

But if you think about it carefully, you can recognize the fact. If legends are really that easy to break through, countless geniuses in Feynman's world who are far better than Allen and Hua She will not be struggling to find the path to legend. on, and then despairingly lost his fighting spirit.

After listening to Hua She's story, Dashan and Mauro told him about the current changes in the town, as well as several strongholds they each operated that were extremely important to the town. When Hua She came to power more than ten years ago, everyone more or less complained about Hua She dispatching them to several surrounding strongholds. However, as time went by, several other strongholds gradually prospered. In the end, everyone let go of their previous knots and were able to talk to Hua Snake calmly about their experiences over the years.

Allen also took the opportunity to talk to Hua She and Mauro in detail about his many considerations on tribal reform, from land reform to the welfare system, as well as the various follow-up actions he will implement in the future. He has no reservations and is looking forward to it. Confessed in front of an old guy.

The reason why they did not hide their future plans from the people in front of them was because Mauro and Dashan were actually in a semi-retired state. It seemed that they were at ease in several strongholds and were in charge of one area, but in fact, they had no control over matters in the town. They no longer have much say. Secondly, because of the return of Flower Snake, Allen finally has a more trustworthy deputy who can help him sit in the town and correct Shi Sheng and others' problems at any time.

For the years when Hua She served as the village chief, his leadership and enterprising spirit have already been verified. Although he failed to break through the legend now, he has accumulated fighting spirit and courage over the past ten years, as well as the vision brought by countless adventures. His knowledge and knowledge are enough to become Shisheng's teacher.

Since after Flower Snake returns, Allen will slowly promote him to an important position again, so telling him the future arrangements of the tribe now will just appease Flower Snake's feeling of being unfamiliar with the tribe and Green Lake Town after returning. Although Hua She has been away for more than ten years, the relationship between him and Allen has never changed much because of this period of no communication. At least what Allen wants to express is this friendship.

As for whether Hua Shen has changed his mind or lost his past leadership ability, Allen is not worried. As long as he, the legendary patriarch, is here and tested when Hua Shen is re-promoted, he can resolve these issues one by one. Check it out.

"Alan, your differentiated treatment and generous rewards for stronger tribesmen can inspire their will to continue fighting, but don't forget that living a luxurious life is more likely to raise offspring who are not enterprising. This How do you prevent it?"

Hua She is much more sober than Dashan and Mauro. As vested interests, Mauro and Dashan have improved their family's quality of life by several levels due to the improvement of the welfare system. They are now enjoying a life that is getting closer and closer to civilization. After the quality of life in the world, how can they think of the hidden dangers behind these excellent lives?

"So, most of what I reward everyone is consumables and opportunities to be exposed to precious knowledge and inheritance. It is difficult for their next generation to inherit it."

Just by Hua She's question, Allen knew that Hua She's eyesight was still so sharp, and he could detect possible hidden dangers at a glance.

"In the early days of my implementation of the welfare system, I needed the tribesmen to see changes as soon as possible to stimulate their fighting spirit. After everyone accepted and got used to this welfare, I would set certain limits on the age for receiving welfare. For example, it should be reached before the age of thirty. Tribesmen who reach the peak of level 15 can continue to enjoy benefits for 25 years, and their benefits will be halved after the age of fifty-five; clansmen who reach peak level of 15 before the age of thirty-five can enjoy benefits for 20 years, five years. After the age of fifteen, their benefits will be reduced to 1/3..."

"Also, among the clan..."

Allen had already had a plan in mind. When he heard Hua Snake asking, he slowly stated his solution. The guys next to him were all a little dumbfounded, because Pavao, the oldest among them, and Dashan Both of them have exceeded the 55-year-old threshold.

"Don't look at me like that. If you want to continue your beautiful life, just train your little brats hard for me. Only if they raise their level, your life will not change greatly!!"

Looking at some of his older partners around him, including Pavao, who was already looking a little stooped due to too many hidden injuries in his early years, Allen's eyes showed a bit of unbearability, but he could only bite the bullet and say firmly. Words come out.

The atmosphere was a little dull for a while. Everyone was whispering to each other and digesting the shock that Allen had brought to them. It was not until Hua She raised his wine glass again and looked for people to drink one by one that the atmosphere was restored.

　Hua Snake has been chasing Allen's back all his life, and it was not until today's chapter that he completely stopped thinking about him.

　　It's not that I don't want to directly advance Hua Shen to Legend with a stroke of a pen, but there are too many difficulties in advancing to Legend. What are the chances of a tribe with only 5 people being promoted to two Legends at once?
  　　Moreover, there is a legendary Green Field Tribe, who is a hot commodity in the eyes of outsiders, and everyone wants to win him into their own camp. However, if there are two legendary tribes in charge, then the situation is different. The tribe that wooed the protagonist before will inevitably secretly suppress him in the future. Therefore, logically speaking, Hua Shen's advancement is not in line with the current development of the tribe.

　　Of course, the original intention of creating the Flower Snake is actually to hope that the protagonist can also experience the helplessness of life, old age, illness and death. Seeing the familiar companions around him old and dead one by one, but leaving himself alone to live alone, that kind of loneliness and desolation may be what the gods express to the outside world. The main reason why he always seems cold and heartless! !

　　By the way, Chapter 55 is finally unblocked, and I know the reason why it was blocked, so I won’t do anything fancy in the future, trouble! ! ! !
