If things go on like this, if there is only intermarriage within the ethnic group...
The bloodline of the Beast God clan is too single.
In order to avoid the situation that after several generations, people in their own ethnic group can only look for a spouse among their own relatives...
The clan leader felt that it was time to attract some fresh blood into the clan.
Of course, this absorption process must be careful and rigorous.
Not everyone’s own ethnic group should accept them.
As far as the current productivity within the ethnic group is concerned, if we add at most a few dozen strong laborers who can feed them, it will become saturated.
Therefore, even if they want to absorb them, they must give priority to these people who can be hired.
Among these people, they will try to make contact with people who have excellent characteristics or extremely good personalities.
If they agree... there will be no need to go out and search in a big way.
And that free man who has planting experience and likes farming very much is a good target for trying.
The clan leader thought, and gave an order that was not considered an order to the clan member who had been working in the fields the longest.
Let him get in touch with this plain man who loves farming.
Ask him what his next plans are after the Beast God clan has finished farming.
"What's next..."
During my rare lunch break, I had someone I could count as my friend ask me about my future plans...
It felt pretty good, and Geng answered very relaxedly.
"I plan to use the reward I have saved these days to dry fish."
"Cook more food and repair my leaky tent."
If you have time, spare your hands and stock up on hay and thorn strips.
"When winter comes, I finally don't have to be hungry and resist."
In the past, he was the only one who collected firewood and raised pond fish...
When winter comes, either there is not enough firewood to burn through the winter or there is not enough food to eat.
This winter I can finally have a good year.
"So..." the tribesman asked tentatively: "You haven't thought about attaching yourself to a large tribe?"
The free man named Geng had a look of surprise on his face: "Of course I have thought about it. Who would have thought it would be so hard?"
"But in Shuibo, if you want to join a big group, you have to do long-term work for at least three years..."
"It depends on your performance before others decide whether to accept you or not."
"If the situation is not good, the clan members who join later will be abandoned immediately."
"So, sometimes, it's not that we like to be free people and live alone."
"But after joining those ethnic groups, it is not as good as living alone..."
"Then why did we join in?"
It turns out that this is where so many scattered small ethnic groups came from...
They really thought that this was the custom in Shuibo.
"In that case, why not try to join our tribe?"
"In the forest area, we often form alliances with other ethnic groups, or merge with some idle small tribes."
"Of course, our tribe doesn't require long hours of labor from you."
"All I ask is that you regard the Beast God Clan as your true home."
"As long as you agree with the beast god we worship, obey the leadership of the clan leader, and respect the shamans of our clan from the ground up... you can live in friendship with the original clan members, and when encountering problems, put the interests of the beast god clan first, When we encounter enemies, we will always be open to the outside world..."
"Then you are a true member of our tribe, without prejudice or rejection."
"When the tribe encounters a great crisis, those of you who joined later will not be pushed out... regardless of life or death."
"But if we really suffer, I hope you can share the joys and sorrows and get through the unknown difficulties together."
"I wonder if you would like to join such a group."
It sounds too good to be true.
Geng hesitated a little, and his friend on the side added fuel to his fire.
"If you still have doubts, why not experience it for yourself?
If after joining, you find that it is not as comfortable as originally promised...you can leave completely. "
"You are a free man, and you are a man who has lived here for a long time, much longer than our new tribe."
"There must be many more people who know you than people who know me."
"If we don't let you leave, you can cry to other people in Shuibo or other ethnic groups."
"We, the Beast God clan, are not an unreasonable clan. Even if we were, with our current fighting power, we would not dare to compete with the entire Shuibo clan."
"You are perfectly safe, so why are you hesitating?"
Yes, that makes sense.
His heart moved, and he looked at the rice fields behind him. Only in this ethnic group could there be land for farming.
And he really wanted to taste what the 'rice' grown in this field tasted like.
Therefore, joining the beast god clan now does not seem to be such a bad thing.
But there was something he had to ask clearly.
"Do you beast god clan have to believe in that beast god?"
"You must know that we, the Zhi tribe, believe in the god of farming. It is the blessing of Mother Earth."
"Beasts don't know how to farm, so I'm afraid that after I follow you and change my faith, I won't be pious enough, which will actually delay my ability to farm."
"Of course, it's not that I don't believe in your gods. After all, I have also seen the gifts and traces of gods appearing in your tribe."
"I just wonder whether the people of the Beast God Clan allow multi-racial worship to exist."
"Would it prohibit me from continuing to believe in the Mother Earth Goddess and the Goddess of Farming?"
"What do your people, especially witches, think about this aspect? Will they look at you strangely and treat them differently because of their different beliefs?"
Hearing this, the tribesman actually smiled.
He told Geng: "If you are worried about this... then there is really no need."
"Our shaman said it himself...faith in gods can be multiple."
"If a group is strong enough or lucky enough, there will be multiple gods favoring this group."
"Our wizard said that there is more than one god who is watching the Beast God clan."
"It's just that the original god our people worshiped at first was the beast god."
"When our tribe becomes stronger, he can continue to communicate with those kind gods and focus on our tribe."
"God is philanthropic, and He will not favor only one ethnic group..."
“Wherever faith is more abundantly available, He is present.”
"Don't worry, in our beast god clan, multiple faiths are allowed to exist."
