Chapter 132: Traveling through the world of beasts: The wolf king with skin thirst syndrome wants to stick to me every day (43)
Major decisions like these of the Orc Tribe are still made through voting.
After Funian proposed this method of execution, many of his supporters raised their hands without even thinking about it.
There are not so many complicated decision-making methods now, and the minority is subject to the majority.
There were quite a few people who voted against it.
But there were not as many votes in favor.
Those who voted against the proposal were dissatisfied when they saw that there were only so few votes, saying, "How can he get away with it even though he attempted murder? All those who tried before him were expelled!"
"Yes, yes! We can't be so lenient just because Master Funian is fine!"
"If there is no punishment for killing, then everyone will kill in the future!"
······
The orc tribe is simple and honest. Everyone is kind and lives in unity, friendship and harmony. Such things rarely happen. The last vote was decades ago.
The crime committed by the orc at that time was not so serious. The person he wanted to kill was not the leader, but the male who had a conflict with him.
The male was also seriously injured, but he was not as lucky as the leader and died later due to poor treatment.
At that time, most of them voted to exile, and the criminal orc was eventually exiled.
This time it might be because of Fu Nian's prestige in the tribe that made people subconsciously agree with his proposal. If everyone thought about it carefully, they would have a good temper if they did not beat the murderer to death when such an important leader in everyone's heart was ambushed.
But as Su Rou said, the murderer is the leader's biological brother from the same mother, and the leader is generous and kind and willing to forgive him, so it is hard to say what the matter is.
The orcs who heard these words also changed their minds and raised their hands.
Even if the leader couldn't bear to exile his own brother, he wouldn't leave him without any punishment, right?
Seeing more and more people voting against, Su Rou's originally relaxed expression froze.
How popular is this Fu Nian in the tribe? Why do so many people defend him?
At first she thought that those who voted against were on Fulin's side, but it turned out that they just thought the punishment was not severe enough.
Didn’t Fu Lin lead people to build houses and set up earthen kangs before? Don’t you guys care about him at all?
A pack of white-eyed wolves.
Su Rou was worried that Fu Lin would be exiled, and seeing that everyone's emotions were now aroused, she naturally could not continue to insist that Fu Lin should not be punished.
She had just heard Fu Nian say that they would hold another meeting in the spring of next year to make a decision. Perhaps something like this had never happened before, or the laws here were not perfect, and it was difficult to judge cases like attempted murder, so they had to reconsider.
In her opinion, Fu Nian still has family affection for Fu Lin.
Even though Fu Lin did that to him, Fu Nian was not angry, nor did she question him, nor did she beat or scold him. Instead, she spoke up for him. If she had seen this on TV or in novels, she would have definitely called him a saint. But when her lover became someone who was tolerated by a saint, she would naturally agree with it wholeheartedly.
"Didn't Fu Nian just say that we'll hold another meeting next spring to make a decision? This matter is rather complicated, and we won't be able to come up with a conclusion in a short time. It's going to snow again in a couple of days."
By then, the snow will be so deep that you may not even be able to get out the door.
If we ask everyone to come up with a specific punishment plan at this time, everyone’s ideas will probably be different.
Voting will also take a long time.
Therefore, it seems that it would be better to hold a meeting to deal with this matter in the spring of next year.
After a cold winter, everyone has thought of almost everything they can think of.
Fu Lin was sweating profusely. Su Rou shouldn't have agreed with Fu Nian at this time.
Although it seems that he can be exempted from the punishment at the moment, after suffering an entire cold winter, what awaits him is an unknown and unknownly severe punishment.
We should hastily decide this matter now while there is not enough time.
In this way, even if someone brings up this matter in the future, we can only talk about it and there is nothing else we can do.
Su Rou should have taken a tougher stance, using her status as a goddess to put pressure on him and threaten him, so that he could be exempted from exile and be punished by having him do some hard labor such as hunting and fetching water.
At this point, seeing so many people supporting Funian, Fu Lin no longer expects to remain in the position of leader. He only hopes that the punishment can be lighter.
After so many days, Fu Lin thought that Fu Nian didn't care about this matter anymore, but he was just too busy to care about it. Fu Lin didn't expect that Fu Nian called everyone here today for this matter, otherwise he must have colluded with Su Rou in advance.
Now that Su Rou was free to act, as a criminal he certainly couldn't speak to excuse himself. He could only stand there in silence, waiting for everyone's decision.
"Master Funian, why don't you take over the position of leader temporarily?"
Although there is nothing to do in winter and the leader does not play a big role, it would be no problem to let Jian Haotian, who has never been a leader, take the position, but aren't there more suitable candidates?
Fu Nian didn't expect Su Rou to be so incompetent, and everyone still gave him so much face. He originally thought that with Su Rou's position as the goddess, Fu Lin might be able to become the leader, so he let Jian Haotian take over this position temporarily. Maybe next spring Fu Lin will take over the position again.
"Everyone has seen these days that I want to work with my goddess to study things that will benefit everyone. I am so busy every day that you can hardly see us. I really don't have time to be the leader."
If he were asked to be the leader, there would be no controversy about this matter and he would definitely continue to be the leader.
There is nothing much to do in winter, but there is a lot to do at other times.
With so many things to do, he had no time to work with Yuanyuantie... on things that would be useful to the tribe.
In the end, most of the orcs agreed with Fu Nian.
After Fu Nian mentioned some precautions, everyone gradually dispersed.
The orcs who greeted Fu Lin when they came, now no longer greet Fu Lin.
The dozens of orcs around Su Rou also looked at Fu Lin with contempt.
Everyone disliked each other in the first place and wanted to monopolize Su Rou every day. Now that they saw Fu Lin getting into this kind of trouble, they all gathered around Su Rou and started to look down on her.
In the past, Fu Lin was the leader and everyone gave him some face. Now that he is not even the leader, people no longer hide their feelings when speaking.
That would have been fine, but Fu Lin also noticed that those people who had previously surrounded him and fawned over him were now surrounding Jian Haotian and fawning over him.
The face changes really quickly.
Su Rou originally wanted to comfort Fu Lin, but she was surrounded by several layers of beastly husbands, and Fu Lin was squeezed outside. She couldn't see anyone when she wanted to talk.
The scenes in front of him were extremely dazzling. Fu Lin didn't want to stay any longer, so he quickened his pace and went home.
Fortunately, no one can go out in winter, otherwise, he really doesn’t know how to face everyone’s gaze.
However, when Fulin returned home, he suddenly remembered that everyone was staying at home with nothing to do during the cold winter, and each household would definitely gather together to chat, and he would still be gossiped about by many people...
Fu Lin really regretted his decision, as he sacrificed his reputation for the position of leader.
He originally thought that the position of leader would bring him many benefits and allow him to have a lot of power. However, after taking the position, he realized that the greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
In the end, this is what happened.
Fortunately, the goddess was in their tribe and fortunately, the goddess liked him. If the goddess didn't like him and didn't protect him, Fu Lin had no idea how severely he would be punished after something like this happened.
