Shigesu was lying on the floor mat, his figure literally skinny and "scaly". Layers of dense scales wrapped around this nearly seventy-year-old man. His face was pale, but not haggard. Comfort and relief filled every wrinkle on his face, and his eyes were so crowded that they were almost invisible due to loose eyelids. There is a loving smile in her thin eyes.
Rui and Panhong, who rushed over, realized that Maoxu's life had come to an end.
"Chief, you are here."
Shigesu said with a smile in an old and hoarse voice.
Rui held up one of his hands that was completely covered with scales: "Well, I'm here."
"I don't have much time..."
Shigesu smiled, his tone was gentle, and his voice was gentle, "I have followed you for so long, and now, seeing that everyone can settle here, farm and hunt, adults work, and children go to school... the old man's life has been worth it... …”
Shigesu's son was kneeling next to him, his eyes already red.
Rui's expression tightened and he said firmly:
"Yeah, life has gotten better."
"Well, well, that's great..."
Mosu let out a sigh of relief, turned slightly to look at his son, and said with a smile, "Chengzi, why are you sad? Now, I eat well, dress well, and have no regrets before I leave. It should be called 'happy mourning' …”
Maocheng gritted his teeth and nodded, forcing out a smile with tears in his eyes.
He knew that his old man was dying, but someone close to him was about to pass away, and who could completely hold back the grief and reluctance.
"leader."
Mosu went to see Rui again, and this time his words were firm.
"You know...organ donation, right?" he said.
Everyone around was shocked. Rui's eyes quickly turned red. Just as he was about to speak, Shigesu continued:
"I am now voluntarily donating my scales...
"Everyone is finally living a good life. From now on, we will cultivate fields, raise cattle and sheep... build houses, build mechas... energy will be needed everywhere.
"Haha, the technology we finally left behind is definitely better to use than people doing things with their own hands..."
Shigesu was still talking, his voice getting weaker and weaker as he spoke.
"Since I followed you, leader, I haven't been able to help you much... Now that I'm gone, I can still make some contribution to everyone with this body..."
Rui's hand holding Maoshi trembled slightly. Faced with the kindness of an old man before his death, he knew that he could not and should not refuse.
Having said this, Shigesu's complexion suddenly turned rosy, and he even raised his other arm slightly and placed it on his son's forearm.
"Old man, I only have one request...
"Please, Chief, when this boy of mine gets married in the future...
"Build a big house for him and that girl..."
"Dad!" Mao Cheng burst into tears.
Rui's facial muscles twitched, tears welling up in his eyes. He looked into Mosu's eyes with great solemnity and nodded.
"Okay, I'll take note of it," he said.
Shigesu smiled reassuringly, and this smile stayed on his face forever and ever.
The hand on Maocheng's arm softened, and the old man closed his eyes and passed away without worries amidst his son's shouts.
The music gradually began to play, and the piano and strings slowly laid the foundation, but it did not deliberately create a sensational atmosphere. After a few beats, the drums also joined in, and the tender lyrical melody was more light and warm. Just at this time, the plot made People smile through tears.
In the wordless vocal singing, the burning flame also becomes gentle.
It moves with the wind, wrapped in a fuzzy figure with thick beards, and the silent sky is coated with the glow of the soul. It is a crimson light that is hot but not burning, bright but not dazzling, and full of hope and blessings.
The bright scales were like fallen stars, and the falling trajectory was like a piece of music that composed a complete life. Rui Qingrou controlled it and fell into the altar held by Mao Cheng's hands.
The scale people sent a flame out of their palms, and the humans closed their eyes in mourning. Fireworks rose into the sky to complete this grand memorial.
The next day, Dr. Carter and Panqing took out the research results of this period and announced that this place could be settled for a long time.
Good times are really coming.
…
The birds flapped their wings rapidly and flew away, the branches and leaves swayed, and not long after, a group of scaly people rushed out from the depths of the dense forest.
Their skin that is not covered by scales is dark and dark, and some of them are still wearing modern clothes, but in tatters; some are dressed primitively, like savages; what's more, their whole bodies are wrapped in scales, and they can't be distinguished for a while. Is it worn underneath or not?
When the camera cut to a close-up, the audience could barely identify which one of the people was Yan Bing.
His ivory white mecha had long been dismantled, and the reckless men who had no weapons stopped following him after they fell out, but they immediately paid the price for it. Faced with the increasingly backward status quo, they were helpless and could only survive. One day at a time.
The consequences of infertility after evolution are reflected here. The number of people in the entire tribe is getting smaller and smaller. Human beings have become like reserve food compared to play equipment. Everyone becomes irritable in despair, and because of their irritability, they create more animals. despair.
When their emotional state was okay, this group of people could still reluctantly cooperate and hunt wild animals, but soon they started fighting again and killing each other due to the so-called "unequal distribution."
Yan Bing mingled among them and eked out an existence. He still had ambition in his eyes, but he was more ruthless than the gentle and elegant person before. When the close-up was shown to him, the viciousness that overflowed the screen made people shudder unconsciously.
He drove the beast under his crotch to run forward a few steps - no one in this group knew how to tame them, and no one was willing to be patient, so he only used rough flames to make them submit - Yan Bing came to the "leader" "On the side, he reported the situation in a low voice, saying that he had discovered traces of Rui's migration.
The leader was overjoyed and immediately announced the next action loudly.
Of course, they were not going back to admit their mistakes and beg Rui to let them and others return to the main army, but to plunder supplies.
The group of people quickly ran in the direction pointed by Yan Bing, and the oncoming brutality and violence made the audience frown.
Qiao Yuansu took the time to check the time and found that the film "Scale Man" had its own conflicts and contradictions in the plot before and after. The technology was so powerful and the picture was smooth. He and the people around him were always distracted, without paying any attention to the whole movie. This work is coming to an end.
Could it be that there is going to be a decisive battle in the end?
He guessed, and at this time the screen had switched to Rui's side.
Rui was doing a more detailed census, and Panhong went door to door to ask for everyone's information. The division of labor in the tribe is becoming increasingly clear. Machine beasts carry boulders, mechas cut them, and scale men burn them with fire... Houses are rising from the ground. Not only are the people in the screen wiping sweat and smiling with joy, but the audience outside the screen also feels a sense of comfort. .
House!
Compared to a simple and convenient tent, a house can give people a greater sense of belonging and stability.
After living in exile for so long, I finally have a home again.
The infrastructure work is in full swing, and everyone's face is filled with joy. From time to time, when I look back at the slightly rough stone houses, hope jumps to my brows, which is the expectation and confidence for the future.
Rui announced the census results, issued decrees one after another, and reestablished order bit by bit.
Soon after, Amber and Hemerocallis got married.
There was no church, no wedding dress, just bright and passionate flames. Under the moonlight, everyone sang and danced around them, waving and cheering. As the leader of the tribe, Rui offered his blessing to the union of the two newcomers. Panhong got an animal skin drum from somewhere and beat it enthusiastically to add to the fun. The common wedding blessing songs in the past were sung in all kinds of weird ways, and finally evolved into a chorus with a slightly wild and rough flavor.
Straightforward, wild, and full of life.
During the group singing and dancing, Mao Cheng was bumped into by a human girl. The girl from an unknown family was looking at Amber and Hemerocallis with a smile as bright as a flower, her eyes filled with joy. When she realized she bumped into someone, she said "Yeah", excitement still lingering on her face dotted with freckles. She didn't care who Mao Cheng was, she stood up on tiptoes with a smile and placed the wreath in her hand on Mao Cheng's head. .
The lively blessing ceremony lasted until midnight. Rui left the last two pieces of animal meat to Abo Aliu and left quietly.
He sat quietly on the boulder, with a clear moon above his head.
Someone climbed up rustlingly, and Rui knew who it was without turning his head.
"Huh! I'm so happy!" Pan Hong lay on the stone surface. The climate was cool and pleasant, and the stone surface was also cool. He sighed comfortably.
Rui said "hmm" and said after a short while:
"When I asked Amber and Hemerocallis, they chose to get married even though they knew they would not have children."
Panhong sat up after hearing him talk about business.
"Isn't it great, because of love." Pan Hong said, "In modern times...oh, there were many DINK families before the disaster."
Rui nodded and added: "But there is a difference between not wanting to have it and not being able to have it."
Panhong said "Hmm" and began to think deeply. Rui ignored him and continued to talk about the next thing.
"There are now 4,754 people in our tribe. Fortunately, there are not many humans who are related by blood within three generations. Dr. Carter said that as long as we do not blindly expand the population and force reproduction, although the progress is slow, we will always reproduce stably. of.
“What needs to be done now is to ensure that inbreeding does not occur and ensures the genes and health of the next generation.
"Shu Zhen has been making pottery recently, and Cheng Ying discovered wild silkworms. After migrating for so long, the previous utensils and clothes were damaged. It was time to try to start a new handicraft industry.
"besides……"
Rui used Pan Hong as a memorandum and talked about it in categories.
Pan Hong listened quietly. Rui knew him well and didn't expect him to answer. He didn't say anything after he finished speaking.
It was quiet for a few seconds under the moon, and Pan Hong suddenly said carelessly: "You are so awesome!"
Rui raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.
"...It's nothing. You will do these things unconsciously."
He said, "There has to be someone to take care of and care, and I happen to be the right person to be this person."
"Awesome..." Pan Hong sighed, "You guys, I feel like you are the most powerful person I have ever seen."
Faced with such words, Rui was still not used to his overly straightforward praise, so he changed the topic and said:
"Dr. Carter said that before the disaster, New Century City was trying to explore outwards to find other people who might exist, but there has been no definite news.
"We migrated so far, from a hot zone to a place with a mild climate, and we didn't see anyone else along the way."
"Yeah~ Yeah." Pan Hong stretched, "Don't worry, maybe we'll meet him one day!"
He added: "I hope they will be friendly by then. What is that word called? 'Peaceful establishment of diplomatic relations'... But even if there is a conflict, I will definitely be on the front line!"
Seeing again Pan Hong's attitude and style that had not changed since they met, Rui smiled slightly.
"Then it's up to you." He said softly.
The night wind made the grass rustle, and the camera zoomed away from the two people's backs very quickly, passing by the laughing crowd and the bonfire, passing by Mao Cheng and the girl who were dancing happily together, passing by the river and the mountains. , and finally stopped in the dark dense forest.
The appearance of the Yan soldiers made Lin Rou and others in the screening room nervous. There was a scene in front of them, and with Yuan Xiao's character, they were afraid that "The Scaled Man" would end up killing them.
But then I thought again, do Yan Bing and the others still have the strength and qualifications to compete with the Rui tribe?
I'm afraid I can't even beat you, right?
Lin Rou and Su Su thought this, while Xu Shuangshuang tensed up.
She felt that these guys who were hovering on the edge of madness should not be underestimated. After all, once people don't care, they can do anything. However, Yan Bing and others have become so barbaric as to cook living people. They must have no morals and conscience left, and their actions are even more paranoid and crazy without any bottom line.
Even if they can't defeat them, if someone from the Rui tribe is hurt in the process, it will be a heartbreaking blow.
The audience was on tenterhooks as the story continued on the screen.
Mao Cheng quickly came to Rui holding hands with the girl he met at the wedding, asking for the leader's approval and blessing.
The girl's name is Yazhuo, and she is a human. Her mother did not agree with the two of them being together at first. It was not that she was prejudiced against scale people, but she just felt that only humans and humans can have successful children. Her girl is the most precious in the tribe. Women, missing one is a loss in reproduction.
Rui also considered this issue, but he finally agreed to their marriage.
"Even if the tribe is recovering and developing and needs more newborns, I don't want individuals to sacrifice for the entire group."
He said, "Maocheng and Yazhuo have made a decision after knowing this. Yazhuo gave up her future reproduction. Maocheng respects her, and I also respect her wish to refuse to have children."
"This is her, and this is the right that all women should have."
Rui convinced Yadro's mother. Soon after, Maocheng and Yazhuo held their wedding. Rui personally gathered fire and molten stone, and with the help of Panhong's mecha cutting and shaping, he built a tall and beautiful stone house for the two of them.
On the day of moving in, Mao Cheng knelt down in front of the house and cried bitterly. Yazhuo accompanied him and bowed deeply to the stone engraved with "beard" next to the stone house.
Amid the crying, the camera panned sharply, and Yan Bing and others finally climbed the mountain.
They all looked ferocious, like starving ghosts, and their eyes exuded a ferocious light.
"It's coming soon...!"
The leading scale man licked his lips and spoke like a beast roaring.
Seeing his impatience, Yan Bing said quickly: "Wait a minute, there are many people in their group, Rui can still fight, we must make a plan first."
The leader bared his teeth at Yan Bing, but he had some brains after being the leader for so long.
"Well, you tell me." The leader said.
Yan Bing rolled his eyes, bowed his head respectfully, and told the leader his "plan" one by one.
Humph, a bunch of idiots...
He narrowed his eyes. What about kidnapping the cubs as a threat? A fire hurricane could swallow them all up. This plan could not be implemented at all.
What Yan Bing has to do is to use Rui's power to get rid of these thugs, then change his mind, kneel down to Rui in public, beg for mercy, cry and repent.
Hum, it has been so long, it is inevitable that the memory and hatred will fade in everyone's hearts. As long as he cries desperately, Rui, as the leader, will be unable to step down and give him a chance to survive.
And with this opportunity, Yan Bing has the hope of making a comeback...
