Chapter 1,295 The Divine Power of the Ocean, Huatai Island and Shantou Land
"Among the many powers of the ocean, I am the divine dolphin...I am hungry, taking my hungry children with me, looking for the human village!..."
"I came to a rich village. The village was full of food, but the villagers yelled at me. They cursed: Oh! This is an evil power! An ugly woman was washed here by the sea!
Quickly, throw stones and dust to cover them!…”
"So, with empty hands, I left the wealthy village and came to another poor village. The villagers bowed to me respectfully. They said: Oh! This is a kind god! She took her children with her.
, came to visit us! Quickly, take out all the dried fish we have and give them to her! Then, take out the tribe’s wooden plaque and carve the image of the divine power to worship..."
"So, I carried the dried fish and returned to the vast sea to let all the children of the gods have their fill. The sea was also very happy! He was whirring haha, and the wind was rising!..."
Joyful singing rang out in the villages of the Hanmarsh Department. The older priests sang ancient divine songs with melodious and hoarse tunes. The young guys, on the other hand, puffed up their cheeks hard and played strange songs.
The bamboo harmonica (Mukkuri) has a deep reverberation like a humai. As for the young girls, holding the vertical sword-like Tonkori (Tonkori), they pluck the five light strings, and the light tinkling sound is like the sound of spring water.
"Wow! The strange harmonica, the beautiful harp, and the desolate singing!...The performances of these Ainu people are really wonderful!..."
Zuvarro and ten warriors were sitting on the right side of the reception hall. Qiandao Shell was sitting next to him, his eyes wide open, and he was fascinated by the welcome ceremony of the Cold Marsh Department, with a smile on his face.
Chief Beiyu Hannum, with his three tribal wives and a group of higher-status warriors, sat on the left side of the hall. He also watched the ceremony quietly, but his eyes were paying attention to Zuvalo's reaction intentionally or unintentionally.
The sound of the bamboo piano floated in the hall, imitating the roar of the tide and the flow of the river. After the beautiful tune, the desolate ballad sounded again, in the tone of the dolphin's own voice, but it was inexplicably low, cold and solemn.
.
"I returned to the sea, I am the power of the sea...I will repay people for the treatment I received!...I sent a sick whale with diarrhea to the beach of a wealthy village. The wealthy villagers ate it,
Then they all died!...I sent a fat whale to the seaside of a poor village. The poor villagers ate it, then became rich, lived happily, and worshiped me..."
"This is the story of the dolphin's divine power! Treat the divine power with evil, and evil will open its mouth and eat you into your belly. Treat the divine power with kindness, and kindness will stretch out its hands and take you into its arms... The sea roars
Haha, the wind is blowing!"
The song of the ceremony finally ended. Qiandao Shell was immersed in the story blankly. After a while, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at Zuvalo who was looking at her. She blushed a little shyly.
, then gently leaned into her husband’s ear and whispered the entire song to him.
"Huh? The divine power of the ocean? Does the return of divine power depend on the treatment He receives? Hmm... This inherited ballad seems to be more than a simple welcome, but has a meaning!..."
Zuvalo blinked and roughly guessed the hints of the chief of the Cold Swamp Tribe, as well as the vague exhortations and warnings contained in them. The other party was obviously very afraid of the force of the fleet and the "power of thunder" in the hands of the fleet.
That's why he behaved so gently.
But only Zuvalo himself knew that the gunpowder brought by the fleet had long been affected by dampness on the extraordinarily long sea route and had lost its original power. Now the six bronze tiger squatting guns on the three ships could only
Just use gunpowder to make a sound to intimidate the local tribesmen who have never seen artillery!
Therefore, he did not have any thoughts of using force. He had already observed the size of this large tribe in the cold swamp. If he could dispatch 500 warriors, he would probably have 3,000 tribesmen! A large tribe of this size would not lack iron weapons and weapons.
Big bows, once a battle breaks out, even if the fleet can win, the losses will never be small! And the warriors of every kingdom who can travel 20,000 miles to get here are extremely precious and cannot be thrown away casually. What's more,
, as long as the other party is willing to sit down and talk, he does not need to shout and kill. Because he has more powerful power, the real power that can conquer the hearts of the tribe...
"My brother, the respected chief of the Mire Marsh, I sincerely thank you for your welcome gift! ... Witness the divine power of the ocean and thunder! I am really happy to see the lost brother tribe today... I decided to give the divine power talisman inherited by the tribe,
I solemnly present it to you as a testimony of tribal friendship!…”
With that said, Zuvalo stood up and came to the chief of the cold marsh. Then, under the other's secretly vigilant gaze, he took off the golden amulet from his neck and put it on the chief himself! And feel it
Seeing this heavy weight, Chief Beiyu Niquan shuddered. He held the amulet in his hand in shock and scratched it hard with his fingernail, leaving a trace...
"Ah? Ah this!...This amulet of divine power is made of gold?!..."
"Yes! This is the specialty of our Thousand Island Tribe! Under the guidance of the Lord God, we found a very large golden mountain on the far northern peninsula. The herding deer tribe of the peninsula joined us, and together with us,
A lot of golden ore was dug out and a lot of gold was smelted!…”
"Then, the power of the Lord God gave me a dream. In that dream, there was a golden thunderbird, wandering in the sea and thunder. He is the incarnation of the god in the human world. He has incredible power and has also given us the power of thunder.
The weapon... And the bird engraved on this amulet is his appearance, the mighty god of the sea and thunder!..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zuvalo smiled and made up a half-truth and half-false story based on the Ainu myths he just heard, dragging the mountains of the Kamchatka Peninsula down.
.And the Hanmarsh Chief was stunned when he heard this, with jealousy and fear on his face.
"On the Thousand Islands in the north, there is an extremely rich Jinshan Mountain? The powerful divine power actually manifested itself, not only giving the location of the Jinshan Mountain, but also the magic weapon of thunder? And those powerful Shantao tribes actually joined like this
Join the Thousand Island Tribe and become their warriors?..."
"This, this is too unbelievable and makes people jealous! Just this piece of gold charm can be exchanged for so much rice, wine and ironware from the southernmost Kazuto! And if we row a boat to the west continent,
You can also use this golden talisman to exchange for a large amount of meat and even horses to ride on from Sauron Mountain Tartar there!..."
The Great Chief of Hanmarsh pinched the golden amulet, his face changed again and again, and his thoughts wandered to nowhere. After a few breaths, he sighed deeply and took off his bear tooth necklace, which was the only one on his body that could match gold.
Something worth the talisman, put it on Zuvalo with his own hands.
"My brother, the respected Chief of Thousand Islands! This bear tooth necklace is a divine amulet that I spent five years making with my own hands! Every bear tooth on it is an adult black bear that I have hunted. For these
Teeth, I have walked across the entire big island, been to Huata in the north, and also rowed to Shanta in the west... Among the Ainu tribes, large and small, this bear tooth necklace is a symbol of the brave bear hunter.
, is a glory equivalent to gold!…”
"Witness the divine power of ancestors and guardians! Today, in order to celebrate the reunion of the brother tribes, I will give you this bear tooth necklace! From now on, we are close brothers who exchange divine talismans!..."
"Ah! Zu! The chief said, I will give you the necklace of adult bear teeth! This is the most valuable tooth in the black bear, representing the protection of the black bear's power! ... Take this necklace of the bear hunting warrior, no matter where it is
You will be welcomed in the Ainu tribe..."
Seeing Thousand Island Shell's surprised expression, Zuvalo nodded, and held the bear tooth necklace solemnly in his hands. He knew that the Ainu people often used various symbols of divine power when exchanging goods with each other.
, to make up for the price difference. Black bear teeth are undoubtedly the most popular "universal currency".
"Thank you, Chief of the Mire! Your amulet of divine power contains your courage and glory in hunting bears, and I admire you very much!..."
Zuvalo held the bear tooth necklace and saluted solemnly. Chief Hanmo was stunned, raised the corner of his mouth, and returned the gift holding the golden talisman. At this moment, there seemed to be more sympathy between the two chiefs.
Approval. They looked at each other like this until Zuvalo raised a smile and asked seemingly unintentionally.
"Well, you just said... have you been to the mouth of the Huatai River in the north, and the Shantao land in the west?... Can you tell me about the situation of the tribes in these two places, the customs of the villages, and their trade
Goods?...I'm really curious! Especially those four-legged and two-legged animals that can be domesticated by tribes..."
"Ah! What's going on with Mrs. Hua and Shan Tao?... It would be a long story to talk about it..."
The Chief of Hanmarsh frowned, and many dusty memories came to his mind. But soon, he put away his emotions, looked at Zuvalo meaningfully, and said with a smile.
"Brother, it's already dark... Why don't we let the tribe hold a dinner party and we can chat while eating?..."
