Chapter 836
Outside the Kingdom of Beiyin, Xiong and Yang lived a comfortable life. After the last war, the tiger disappeared and was obviously scared.
All the animals in the forest became lively. Yang had to name the animals and plants in the forest every day. Xiong didn't understand at first, but later Yang told Xiong that this was the mission given to her by God. She was born to name the things in the forest. Xiong knew that his partner was a messenger born with a mission, so he was willing to accompany Yang to adventure in the forest and protect Yang.
After fighting with the tiger, Xiong knew that he was not strong enough. Now that he had someone to protect, he practiced hard and was thinking about how to become stronger. He knew that using weapons would make it easier for him to kill the enemy, but ordinary stones were not effective. Later, he found that thin stone flakes had cutting ability and could easily cut his fingers. This opened the door to stone tools for him, so every night before the campfire, Xiong would study the stones, hoping to develop a suitable stone weapon.
"Xiong, tell me more about King Arthur and the Queen." Yang is not a Bein. To be precise, she is a man-made person. She has no memory of the Bein Kingdom. She only knows that she is a person created by God to name the creatures in the forest.
So when Yang learned about his hometown Bein Kingdom from Xiong, she was very yearning.
"King Arthur is high above, I have told you everything I know." Xiong had no choice. It was only five years since the birth of the Bein people. King Arthur usually lived in the castle. How could he have the chance to see him?
"Last time you said King Arthur promulgated the marriage law, and you also said that we are married now, right?"
"Yes." The Beiyin people of this era do not have any shy love. They are all for the purpose of procreation, so there is no need to be shy: "According to King Arthur's marriage law, the man must give the woman a bag of grain as food before and after the woman gives birth, and at the same time take care of them when the woman is pregnant. As long as the man takes out a bag of grain and the woman accepts it, the two can become husband and wife."
Yang's beautiful eyes flashed: "Ah, then I haven't got a bag of grain yet."
...Xiong was stunned, but seeing Yang's eyes, he also knew that the other party was just joking, so he said seriously: "I will make up for it this fall." The words were true, and Xiong remembered it.
It is early summer now. It has been more than a month since Yang saved Xiong and took care of him with river water and jam. Both of them have made a human. It was Xiong's negligence to do the beastly thing to Yang first.
Although he didn't really want a bag of food, he was still very happy to hear his lover's promise: "I will definitely give you a son next year."
It has to be said that the primitive people are sincere and unpretentious, completely different from the coquettish and slutty girls of today.
At this time, the Kingdom of Beiyin was still the same. Although the people of Beiyin were no longer as close as before, they could still live and work in peace under Saber's rule. After the formation of the Twenty-Four Knights, there were fewer fights and troubles.
However, the consequences of the marriage law also appeared, that is, divorce.
Obviously, a marriage for the purpose of having children cannot last long. Getting married means that you can never change your partner again, which is unacceptable to these primitive people. At first, there was no feeling, but two men and women who didn't know each other very well lived under the same roof, which exposed many problems.
They all wanted to exchange partners, so many indescribable dirty things happened secretly.
Saber didn't pay attention at first, until Mikasa came to leak the news, she knew that her country was so chaotic. Although the law can immediately restrain the Beiyin people, without morality, they can do many things that the king and the gods cannot accept without breaking the law, and morality needs a long time to cultivate.
Saber was helpless and could only strengthen the marriage law and issued the second chapter of the marriage law, which prohibits the opposite sex from having children other than the partner. And let the priests and knights supervise, trying to curb such unethical things from happening.
The result is that the Beiyin people began to pay attention to the choice of partners. Since they can't change, they have to find a better one and a sincere one. So the chain reaction that appeared was that in order to compete for partners, there was a thing of raising the betrothal gifts. The price of one bag of grain and two bags of grain rose. The highest betrothal gift this summer was as high as ten bags of grain.
But the Beiyin people had no concept of storing enough grain. Generally, they collected as much as they could eat in a year. Except for paying taxes, other grains were left in the fields and would not be collected at all. Then the betrothal gift of ten bags of grain could only be paid during the autumn harvest, but it was not known whether ten bags of grain could be collected.
Now the Beiyin people finally realized how important the harvest of the fields was.
But it was too late. A vicious incident occurred in the fall, and three people died in a fight over food.
The cause was the ten bags of food betrothal gifts. The Beiyin people who made the promise did not receive so much food at all. If you think about it, you will know that they don’t care about their crops on weekdays. They just throw seeds on the ground. It’s strange that they can harvest enough food.
After paying 30% of the taxes, it is far from enough for ten bags of food, so that person thought of picking up the food that others didn’t want from other people’s fields. But other people are not stupid. They didn’t want it before because there was too much food that they couldn’t use at all. But now everyone knows that they have to pay more food to find a good partner, so why are there people willing to share what they have in their fields.
One refused to give, the other wanted to rob, then they each called their good friends and a group fight broke out. Many people held stones, and it was obvious that now the people of Beiyin knew that stones could kill people.
At that moment, they forgot about the Church of God and the king's hope, and fought fiercely, with blood splattering everywhere.
Three people died in this fight, and seven people were injured, one of whom had a broken finger, two people had missing front teeth, two people had broken bones, one person was blinded in one eye, and one person had internal bleeding.
It can be said that this is the biggest vicious accident since the birth of the Beiyin people, but the Beiyin people still have no doctors. Saber ordered them to eat the magic beans, but the magic beans, which were originally from the same root, had no effect on the Beiyin people.
Needing a doctor, Saber realized that her country still had many shortcomings. Send the seriously injured among the seven people to the magic spring, and whether they can be cured depends on God's will.
Saber will not ask Duran for such things, because this is her poor management as a king.
The murderer who killed the three people could not be found at all, because everyone was fighting in a group and no one knew who was the one who killed them. No one cared at the time, and only found out afterwards that something was wrong. Unless a further autopsy is conducted, and then everyone is asked in detail how they did it, and the person who caused the fatal injury is found, otherwise this will be a headless case.
However, since it is still ruled by people, it should not be so complicated. Saber's words are the law. So she confiscated the fields of those who participated in the fight and put them in prison for ten years. At the same time, she criticized and educated the Knights who did not stop the fight in time, saying that she was very angry.
The prison has not been built yet, so those who participated in the fight were allowed to build the prison themselves, supervised by the priests.
