The Caveman Made Me Awesome

Chapter 454: Dispel doubts

With the sound of Ye Xiwa chanting the Codex.

Gradually, the slaves who had been hiding in the distance leaned in unknowingly, hid themselves behind the stele, pricked up their ears and listened intently with others.

Ye Xi didn't take it seriously, looking up at the towering stone tablet and continuing to read: "...Article 63 of the Code, Gongli has no reason to be executed at will, and offenders will be flogged for 80."

Now the tribes in Xicheng have both private slaves and public officials.

Private slaves are personal property. They usually live in the master's stone house. Their life and death are determined by the master. Ye Xi is inconvenient to intervene.

Gongli was a property shared by Xicheng. He usually lived in a cave together and needed to help Xicheng with work. Ye Xi didn't want to see these slaves being killed easily.

Ye Xi read down: "Article 64 of the Code, if a female slave gives birth to more than three children belonging to Xicheng people, then this female slave will be pardoned as a commoner."

The female slaves who were listening behind the stele stared sharply and looked at each other in disbelief.

Ye Xi continued: "Article 64 of the Code, slaves who have contributed to Xicheng will be rewarded and even pardoned as civilians."

The few male officials hiding behind the stele could no longer stand.

A slave wearing cracked leather armor and a mud-faced slave walked out boldly, knelt down to Ye Xi with a puff, and lay down on his upper body.

"Dare to ask Master Xi Wu, what kind of contribution is enough to be pardoned as a commoner?"

The civilians in Xicheng just bend over and salute when they see the high-level staff, but the slaves must kneel down on their knees and prostrate themselves.

For example, the witches or chieftains of Xicheng are relatively peaceful, and generally do not embarrass slaves. The upper strata of some tribes are full of hostility. Sometimes they are not pleasing to the eye and order execution of a certain slave, or even torturing the slave for pleasure.

This was the case of the Zy tribe in the past. There were countless slaves who died in their hands, so these Zy tribe slaves wanted to leave when they saw Ye Xi.

This can be regarded as saving others by oneself.

"Shi Ge, you..."

The other slaves did not expect their companions to be so bold and called the slave's name in a panic, and then all walked out and knelt down to Ye Xi, his upper body lying deep on the snow.

The people of the surrounding tribes were full of anger because a slave dared to interrupt Ye Xi's words, their faces were blue, their eyes were staring at this Shi Ge coldly.

Ye Xi was not angry. He lowered his head peacefully, looked at the slave Shi Ge, who was still buried in his head, and replied.

"For example, finding the source stone and offering it to Xicheng, for example, desperately defending Xicheng when encountering an enemy in Xicheng, for example, discovering a crop with a particularly high yield...As long as it is beneficial to Xicheng, it's fine."

"Master Xie Xiwu!!"

Shi Ge got the answer and immediately slammed several heads at Ye Xi, still lying on the ground without daring to get up.

At this time, a female slave said boldly: "Xi...Master Xi Wu, I also have a question to ask you, don't know if it is okay?"

This slave girl was obviously not as bold as Shige, and her body trembled violently with fear.

Ye Xi was more tolerant to women, and said gently: "If you have any questions, just get up first."

The female slave's animal skins were thin and tattered, her cheeks were slightly sunken, and her ten fingers were as red and swollen as carrots, looking torn and miserable.

In fact, Xicheng treats female slaves more preferentially, and will not let female slaves do heavy work, and the food and fur allocated are never short, but the condition of female slaves is often worse than that of male slaves.

Because of their food and fur, most of them were snatched away by stronger men.

If Ye Xi really wanted to manage this situation, he could manage it.

But whatever is more beneficial to Xicheng.

So Ye Xi didn't act, but just let the situation continue to develop, and the slave women gradually began to hate the male officials of the same race, and they were alienated from each other.

After all, according to the current regulations, most of the female slaves are likely to become official Xicheng people. If they still have a deep affection for the same race and even help male slaves to escape, then Xicheng will have troubles in the future.

Listening to Ye Xi's gentle voice, the female slave calmed down a bit, her words no longer tremble.

It's just that she still didn't dare to get up, and buried her head deeply and said, "I want to ask, Master Xi Wu, do we take care of the children born to our slaves?"

Ye Xi: "No, we will take care of it."

The female slaves who heard this were suddenly relieved, and the last worries disappeared.

Who doesn't want to get rid of slavery status, but it is hard enough for them to survive on their own. It is impossible to raise three more children. The children will most likely be starved to death.

Now that Xicheng will take care of it, that couldn't be better.

"In fact, Article 65 of the Code will mention this."

Ye Xi looked up at the stone tablet and said: "Slaves under five, children born to female slaves, and children born to non-partners will be sent to the'young pagoda' dedicated to raising these children, and they will be unified by the pagoda. Those who are raised, who have reached the age of thirteen or passed the test, can leave the juvenile tower and have autonomy."

When everyone heard this, they all shouted from the bottom of their hearts.

"Master Xi Wu is kind!"

After a while, a tribe man stood up hesitantly, then gritted his teeth and bowed to Ye Xi, and asked: "Master Xi Wu, you said Gongli can't be executed at will..."

His eyes gradually turned red, and his body trembled: "But the people of the tribe have cruelly tortured our tribe. They even let the babies of our tribe... I hate it when I see some slaves of the tribe. I want to kill them..."

He burst into tears when he said this, his throat seemed to be choked, and he couldn't talk anymore.

Everyone was silent.

Ye Xi said word by word, sonorously: "Xicheng people do not need to bully the weak and cruel people to be clansmen. Killing these slaves does not conform to the word'at will,' and it is not a violation of Article 63. code."

The tribe was overjoyed and asked urgently: "So what about private slaves? Some hateful people have been assigned to private slaves, and they should also be punished!"

Ye Xi glanced at him: "Private slaves, that are the property of others. You have no right to kill them, but you can exchange your property for private slaves with the other party."

"……Yes!"

Ye Xi retracted his gaze and said to the others: "If you have any questions, you can ask me together."

Tudou's mind is also more flexible, and he has no scruples in his speech. He asked, "Master Xi Wu, if someone robs, but the looter insists that he did not rob, and refuses to admit that he did it, what should I do?"

Ye Xi glanced at him with admiration and smiled and said: "We will set up a arbitration board. The adults in the arbitration board will handle these disputes together. I believe that no one will be wronged."

"The ruling office will still have the Buddhism and Wu taking turns to sit in. If it is really unable to solve the problem, it is left to them to judge.

Bu Wu!

Everyone was surprised.

The abilities of witch divination are mysterious and unpredictable, and the white turtle witch can even faintly predict natural disasters. This kind of trivial matter of judging whether or not to lie must be solved by witch divination.

Tu Dolphin really bowed down, boasting, "Master Xi Wu is really thoughtful!"

Ye Xi smiled slightly and glanced at the others: "Do you have any other questions?"

There was silence around.

Everyone can't think of anything else you want to ask~lightnovelpub.net~ At this moment, a milky voice suddenly sounded: "Yes!"

Ye Xi turned her head and looked. It turned out that the little Prosopis doudou riding on her father's back was talking. Little Prosopsis was only two years old. His small face was raised and chubby. It was hidden in a furry fur coat and looked very cute. .

It is not easy for a child of this age to survive the migration. Ye Xi's eyes are softened: "Say."

Moudou raised his head and pointed at the top line of the stele and said, "What is written on this line?"

The font size on the top line is very large, and Ye Xi also personally used a carving knife to carve out the stroke of the pen, which looked vigorous and very beautiful. It immediately attracted Xiao Mudou's attention.

Ye Xi touched his little head.

"This line is written," he said slowly and solemnly, "--may the light of civilization shine on the earth, and the glory of the human race will last forever."
