Chapter One Thousand and Three: The Voyage Diary of a Learned Man, June to October, Review of Four Thousand Miles on the Far North Coast
"In mid-August, we arrived at Great Whale Island and saw a group of large whales. It was an extremely magnificent sight! The small North Sea whales and killer whales were only half a long boat, with strange white patterns, as if they were in the sea.
The cloud elves. The larger big-winged whales (humpback whales) and gray whales have spread wings and long and protruding mouths respectively, like eagle warriors in the sea... Lord God! The most magnificent
, is a kind of giant whale (sperm whale) with a big head! They will be much longer than the entire long ship. Like the mountains patrolling in the sea, they can easily capsize the big ship! ... God bless you! Fortunately, these big heads are
The temperament of giant whales is much, much gentler than that of the terrifying giant beasts of the black abyss in mythology. At most, they will follow the longship and swim curiously for a while, then they will splash water all over the sky and turn around and leave in boredom..."
"Witness the Lord God! The reason why so many whales gather around the Great Whale Island is because there are extremely abundant fish schools in this sea area! Schools of salmon gather into colorful fish balls, ranging from blood-red to shining silver.
, and as pink as light branches. I have eaten them all, and I still feel that red-meat salmon is the fattest... The large pieces of black cod are like gray-black flint, or like willows hanging into the water, with clusters of
Wandering around. This kind of black-skinned cod is so delicious that I can eat two kilograms in one sitting... In addition, there are all kinds of lobsters, crabs, and plaice lurking on the bottom of the sea. I like to eat them all, but I just have to deal with them.
kind of hard…"
"Praise the Lord God! The exploration fleet followed the warm sea currents and discovered a natural harbor on the east side of the Great Whale Island, surrounded by some streams that provide fresh water. We estimated the voyage, and this harbor is closely related to the divine blood
The distance between the bay and the harbor is about a thousand miles... So, after discussing with Zuvalo, we left another long ship here, with fifty samurai sailors, and established the kingdom's Great Whale Port!...
"
The blue sea is calm and calm, but it is connected to the deep black abyss. It is unknown how much mystery and magnificence is hidden. Mickey, the knowledgeable man, closed his eyes, as if he saw the wandering whales again and heard the long whale call.
Those powerful behemoths swimming in the deep sea possess mythical majestic power, and it seems that no big ship can resist them!
"Although the waters around Big Whale Island are rich, there are not many Sugpiya tribes on the island. I guess that on the sea where such sea beasts gather, their small kayaks are still too fragile and can easily be attacked by those sharks.
, the whale was knocked over, so it was impossible to get enough food. In fact, only the strong long boats of the fleet can fully catch the fish in this ocean!…”
"At the end of August, when we left the Shenda Whale Port, there were only more than 30 tribesmen from the island recruited in the port, which meant that there were about 80 people left. We did not spend time looking for recruitment on the island.
A loose tribe. Zuvalo told me that he wanted to reach the westward island chain as soon as possible. The rumors were getting clearer and closer, and it was getting closer! So, we took the remaining four long boats and sailed around the whale.
On the south side of the island, continue to follow the warm ocean current to the west..."
"God bless you! After passing the Great Whale Island and heading west, crossing two hundred miles of sea, we returned to the narrow mainland coast. And the direction of the entire coast is just like His Majesty predicted, turning to the southwest...Now
Think about it, the high mountains in the Thousand Islands Bay where you can see the Tianshen Ancestral Peak are probably the farthest north that the fleet has reached along the way! ... As for the rumored vast and extremely cold extreme northern snowfield, it is located on the coast.
The inland behind the mountains is not on our westward route, and it is definitely not a place where a kingdom settlement can be easily established!…"
"Praise the Lord God! We followed His Majesty's prophecy and had a clear goal along the way. We never had to doubt the direction of progress. All we needed was the courage to go west! And sailing along the current is really fast, and we can even travel in one day.
Two hundred miles. The coast along the way is dotted with towering white mountains, which are the best navigation landmarks on the route!... Along the southwest coast, I marked three towering, smoking volcanoes, namely the long and long "Shen Changbai Mountain"
'(Mt Veniaminof, 2507 meters), the magnificent and undulating Pavlof Volcano (2518 meters), and the towering and smoking Shishaldin Volcano (2858 meters)..."
"Witness the Lord God! At the foot of the Shengaobai Mountain, we met the first Unanga tribe, and finally knew that we had reached the end of the southwest coast in the prophecy! At the end of the southwest coast, further west, is the Unanga population.
, the Giant Islands of the 'Ancestral Island Chain'. In fact, the beginning of the 'Ancestral Island Chain' is here... There is no doubt that this long island chain leading to the west is exactly what His Majesty predicted, leading to the western continent.
The last island chain!”
"Ahaha! Praise the supreme God! Praise His Majesty the Divine Enlightenment! We lit a blazing sacred fire at the foot of the Shengaobai Mountain, and had a feast and carnival with the Unanga tribe we met!... I met a strong but beautiful tribal girl
, she lifted me up easily, but I will definitely be able to conquer her in another way and turn her into my wife!…”
"Ah, Lord God! I repent to you and take back the big words I said when I was drunk... Maybe, I don't need to use 'conquest' to prove anything. The strength of the spirit will surpass the body, and the light of faith is the real glory.
…Ahem! I want to spread your faith, as long as she converts to the Lord God and walks on the right path of faith!…”
Seeing this, Mikey, the knowledgeable man, blushed and glanced at his wife, White Bear Gaowa, quietly. Then he closed his eyes. In nearly four months and a journey of four thousand miles, everything happened scene by scene.
A flash flashed before his eyes. After a long review, he picked up a charcoal pen and briefly wrote down the entire scene of exploring the far north coast.
"The Lord God witnesses! In mid-to-late June, at 58 degrees north latitude, seven longships discovered the predicted gold mine in Juneau and established Shenjinxi Port... In mid-to-late July, at 61 degrees north latitude, six longships arrived at Thousand Islands Great Bay
, establish the Divine Blood Bay Port... In mid-August, at 58 degrees north latitude, five long ships arrived at the Great Whale Island and established the Divine Great Whale Port... In early September, at the 55 degrees north latitude, four long ships arrived at the foot of the Divine Taibai Mountain and established the Divine Great Land.
Port, exploring the ancestral island chain... In early October, at 52 degrees north latitude, three longships arrived at Shengaoshan Island, and the Shengaoshan Port was being established..."
"Blessed by the Lord God! With the help of the westward current, the exploration fleet spent four months, traveled more than 4,000 miles westward, went north and south along the coast, and finally arrived at the middle of the ancestral island chain! We are separated by
Thousands of miles away, five ports on the far north coast have been established. And of the seven longships that were explored, only the last three are left... Oh no, there is also one longship left at Shengaoshan Port, so there are only two
A long ship, you can continue westward..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable was thinking, but White Bear Gaowa suddenly stood up. She narrowed her eyes, glanced sharply in the direction of the snowfield, and whispered.
"Weng, someone is here."
"Huh? Who?"
"Chief, here we come."
"Uh...Chief? Oh, it's Zuvalo."
Mickey the Knowledgeable blinked his eyes and looked down the hill. Soon, the figure of the exploration captain Zuvalo appeared in his eyes. He watched Zuvalo, wrapped in a leather robe, getting closer and closer.
It wasn't until the other party was more than ten steps away that he smiled and said.
"God bless you! Zuvalo, my captain, why did you come here alone? Quickly wipe the snow on your head..."
"Huh? Snow?..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo blinked and ran his hands through his hair, but found nothing cold. Only then did Mickey, the knowledgeable man, discover that there was no snow on the other person's hair, but a lot of white hair.
"Zuvarro...your hair is white?..."
"Um!"
Exploration Captain Zuvallo pursed his lips and strode up to the knowledgeable Mickey, his expression solemn and solemn.
"Witness the Lord God! Mickey, the sailors have repaired the longship that was damaged in the storm as much as possible. However, the fleet lacks wood and can only be repaired to the point where it can barely catch fish. There is no way to make the ship
Sailing in the deep sea...and we need at least one ship that can go back to notify various ports and report back the news..."
"Well, Zuvallo, what do you mean?..."
Mikey, the knowledgeable man, blinked and instantly understood what Zuvalo had not finished.
"Lord God! We can only have one ship. Shall we continue to explore westward?"
"I'm afraid that's the case..."
Exploration Captain Zuvalo bit his lip and nodded heavily.
"God bless you! There is still more than a month before the North Sea freezes. I am afraid that the third batch of supporting Kingdom fleets will be the same as when we set off. They will not be able to go north from the Whale Division until March or April at the earliest when the freeze thaws... In this way
, I’m afraid it will have to be at least August next year for the follow-up support fleet to arrive here! And if you miss these one or two months, you will have to wait another year! Maybe... it’s time to put everything aside and take the plunge.
Give it a try!..."
"Ah! The Lord God witnessed it! March thawed, and we began to explore. In April, spring warmed, and ten supporting longships arrived. Then, we brought ten kingdom longships, more than five hundred warriors and sailors, full of food,
Salt and flint, from 48 degrees north latitude, the whales of the Makka people set sail!... In the blink of an eye, we have only the last ship left, can we continue westward?... Lord God! Could it be that this year's exploration voyage of the fleet
,Is this the end?…”
Thinking of this, Mickey the Knowledgeable looked in a trance and his thoughts drifted away. After a while, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and touched the first few volumes of the exploration diary of this year. In March when he started to set off, the wind in the early spring was chilly.
Snow, June when the gold mine was discovered in Chuna, and a sudden burst of vitality in early summer... That initial journey of two thousand miles, to verify His Majesty's divine prophecy, started with the Whale Tribe of the Makka people who had been conquered by the kingdom~
Note: The four thousand miles of exploration on the far north coast have been fully marked in the Easter egg chapter. There are two or three flashback chapters left, reviewing the discovery of the Juneau gold mine on the coast. Then, there is the final exploration to the west.
