king of ros

Chapter 176

Norshsk Village is a very typical village in Northeast Ross, and such villages are everywhere in Northeast Ross.

However, there is something special about it, that is, the scale of this village is very large, with a combined population of nearly a thousand, it can be said to be one of the largest villages.

Such villages are often very closed, and most of the daily necessities of the villagers can be made by themselves, and the blacksmiths in the village can also forge some necessary iron products.

In the eyes of most people in the village, their village and the wilderness surrounding the village are everything in the world, where they multiply, live and die here, and this world is everything.

From time to time, outsiders will come here, most of them are a combination of Baixi performers and businessmen. The performers bring joy to the village, while the businessmen bring goods and news from afar.

Occasionally they would take some young people who wished to venture out, and some would come back, rich and full of stories, once becoming the central focus of the village.

Some never return, and those who return may take their stories with them, either settling somewhere or dying, but many are never heard of again.

Everyone is very open about this, since they have chosen a distant place, no matter what the ending is, they deserve it.

Other visitors are wandering warlocks, priests of these ancient gods who are also physicians, and heal people with herbs. Their presence is a good thing for the village, and these healers will use their medical skills to give people help.

But generally speaking, this village is still very peaceful. Most people live here all their lives, and tranquility is the theme song of this place.

But now, everything is starting to change.

"Take this medicine well and take it in three meals a day. If you stick to it, the disease will disappear."

"Hiss, the wound is getting worse. Fortunately, we are here. I still have some medicine made by Master, which is enough to treat it."

"It's black, and the blood is a bit serious. I have tools here. I'll deal with it next."

People were crowded under the huge oak tree in the village, and a few people wearing furs and the emblem of Veles were busy treating various diseases of the villagers. Fortunately, although there were a lot of people, but It's all within the scope of these believers' solutions.

The children are running around happily in it. For them, the scene of many people's activities is the time for activities. This is not a sight that you can see every day.

After finishing the treatment, the people did not disperse, but began to chat about the daily life, after all, so many people gathered together.

Some villagers also took out the gifts they had prepared, which mainly consisted of various foods and some handicrafts, and those believers also accepted them. Their activities in the wilderness were all thanks to the gifts and support of the various villages.

Then people chatted with these black-robed people, and these Villes believers responded enthusiastically. From their expressions, it can be seen that these people are already old friends.

On the other side, the leaders of these Veles believers walked to the small slope next to the village at some point, and here, the village head of the village community was sitting here looking into the distance.

It was a fortress being built on a hillside. The Prince of Moscow's St. George Slaying the Dragon and Rurik's trident fluttered in the wind. The construction site was full of workers in rough clothes, all of whom were recruited from nearby villages. , while the nearby activities are supervised soldiers.

"Village Chief, I haven't seen you for a while, it seems that your complexion is fine."

Lev greeted the village chief cordially, and the village chief sighed realistically and looked at the warlock.

"You're pretty good, Lev. It looks like your body is not old at all. After so many years, many young people can't compare to you."

The middle-aged village head looked at the old man in front of him. When he was young, this man often brought his apprentices to visit the village, and he still comes to visit now. The people in the village treat him and his apprentices very well. Kind, after all, who wouldn't like a lifesaver?
And Lev also noticed the sad face of the village chief. He looked at the walled city that was being built in the distance. It was really too fast. He didn't expect that the prince of Moscow would extend his tentacles to the countryside so soon.

"The prince's fortress, when it is completed, the entire surrounding area will have to prostrate under Rurik's authority."

Lev looked at the city and said subconsciously. At the same time, he was very frustrated. He worked hard for a year to unite people, and the biggest result was only dozens of followers. The prince of Moscow has already built a city in the countryside. Increased control.

"The prince's henchman has come. Our village was ordered to send food and young men last month. Facing soldiers with orders and swords, it is difficult for us to do anything to resist. In other words, we all think that it is not worthwhile to resist. "

The village head's words made Lev's expression very subtle. He originally thought that the village head would say some other reasons to change the subject, but now he directly said the reason.

"Have you ever thought that after the completion of the city wall, more oppression will come."

"I know, but it's a pity that although I am a village, I can't make decisions about the affairs of the village. For such a big event, a general assembly must be held to vote, and the result..."

The village chief only said half of what he said, and the other half Lev knew what it was.

Lev knew what the village head meant. As long as the prince didn't persecute him too hard, most of the villagers wouldn't have the courage to resist. In places where the city wall hadn't been built, the people there didn't care about it.

Many Meria tribesmen expressed their willingness to fight, but they also made it clear that they would not fight alone as wedding dresses if the Ross people had to join.

Lev's plan to unite the countryside is difficult to achieve. All regions act on their own, without a unified command and dispatch, and it is impossible to unify opinions at all. He is also entangled in past grievances, and he is unwilling to integrate forces and use force to unify.

Only when the oppression of the princes comes like a mountain, will these people unite.

The old warlock really felt hopeless. Under the current circumstances, it was absolutely impossible for people to initiate active resistance, and the prince's power was wasting time to erode the land.

Let the people find that everything is extremely bad, and when they start to resist, they will find that the tentacles of the prince have spread all over their limbs.

Lev couldn't help but say Yang's words at this time, it was those words that made him so vigilant, but if he wanted to resist, it was really...

"By the way, I heard some news recently."

The village chief remembered one thing.

"Recently, the Prince of Moscow passed by our neighborhood. Don't you always want to see that young man? You can go and see."

"Rostislav is near?"

Chewing on these words, Lev's eyes became more and more unfriendly, let him go to see the prince in Moscow, and see if there is any chance...

And if there is no chance, then he can only face up to some things...
