Chapter 886 Kusi people, lets see if it tastes good.
There was already some coolness in the September sea breeze, indicating that the cold winter was approaching. The five longships continued forward until dusk, rowing thirty miles and docking on the coast full of redwood trees.
"Praise the merciful Lord God! Leave a guide in each ship, and bring the others with you!"
Mikey, the knowledgeable man, had a gentle look on his face. He stood on the beach and looked at the more than ten captured hunters of the Leaf Tribe. With a friendly smile on his face, he picked up a wood-carved amulet of the Lord God in his hand and began to lure the hunters at the front.
"Come! Say it with me! Praise the Lord! Huitzilopochtli!..."
"..."
The Tolowa hunter gritted his teeth and stared at Mickey fiercely. He seemed to be trying hard to endure it, so as not to "spit".
"Ha ha!..."
Hearing the laughter, Mikey the Knowledgeable's smile faltered. He turned around and saw Zuvallo, who was laughing out loud.
"Ahem! Mickey, I think otherwise... just carve a tattoo symbol of the main god on each person! Why do you need to guide them one by one like this? Even if they chant the name of the god, they will be far away from conversion..."
"Zuvarro, shut up!"
Mickey the Knowledgeable gritted his teeth and glared at Zuvalo. Then he calmed down, raised his friendly smile again, and looked at the next captive hunter.
"Come! Recite the name of the god. After reciting it, you can return to the tribe while wearing the amulet of the main god..."
"..."
The second hunter looked alert and confused, completely unable to understand what the longship chief said. He carefully looked at the amulet in Mickey's hand and stared at the sun hummingbird engraved on it, as if it was some kind of talisman that could suck away souls.
Full of magic tools.
"Uh..."
Mickey, the knowledgeable man, scratched his head, looked at Tuowu, the translator on the ship, and asked in a deep voice.
"Tou! Although these tribal hunters are from the Leaf Grass Tribe, they are also your tribe... The fleet is going to let them leave, so please help translate!..."
Hunter Tuowu pursed his lips, and his face changed. He hesitated and struggled with the hatred of the tribe for a long time before he walked up to the knowledgeable Mickey and shouted a few words to the captives. Then, the faces of the captives
On the way, their expressions immediately changed, most of them were in disbelief, and a few had expectations in their eyes.
"Come! Read after me! Praise the Lord God!..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable smiled, walked up to a young captive with lively eyes again, and said in a deep voice.
"Huitzilopochtelli!"
"...Feed...the carrots..."
The captured hunter of the Leaf Tribe blinked his eyes and hesitantly pronounced the name of the god.
"Strange?"
"Good! Very good! God bless you! You read it accurately!"
Mickey the Knowledgeable smiled brightly and put the amulet of the Lord God in his hand around the young prisoner's neck. Then, he untied the rope from the young prisoner's wrist, took another piece of acorn cake and stuffed it into the prisoner's hand.
"Okay! Wear the emblem of the Lord God! You can return to your tribe!"
There was caution and suspicion on the face of the young prisoner. He took two steps cautiously, looked back, and then took two more steps, as if he was a testing squirrel. His eyes fell on the squirrel held by the longship warriors.
On the big bow, I looked at it carefully for a long time, and suddenly with a leap, it changed from a squirrel to a galloping hare.
"Huh?"
Mickey, the knowledgeable man, opened his eyes wide and watched the young captive leap into the forest like flying and quickly hide behind the big tree. Then, he waited for a while and saw that no one in the fleet made any movement, and then he revealed half of his body.
With his head turned, he shouted something.
"'Anaan
haa!Sh'aa!cheewya!…”
"Uh? Tuowu, what is he shouting?"
Hunter Tuowu's eyes changed, he looked at the hunters in the forest, and then he answered in a low voice.
"He said that his name is Feng Cao, and he is as outstanding a hunter as the wind in the Leaf Grass Department. One day, he will meet you again!"
"Hunter Wind Grass? It's a pretty good name."
Mikey, the knowledgeable man, touched his chin, smiled and muttered to himself.
"Okay! The Lord God witnesses everything! See you later!..."
With the first demonstration, the next steps were much faster. More than ten captive hunters chanted the name of the god, put on the amulet of the main god, each took a piece of acorn cake, and were released. The captives had complicated eyes and stood there.
In the redwood forest along the coast, under the last sunset, I watched the five longships heading north again and disappearing into the gloomy night. On this long day, they experienced battles and capture, capture and release, and also
From then on, I knew the name of the Lord God...and this is an unpredictable fate. No matter whether I believe it or not, I don’t know where it will go.
The fleet continued forward, rowing 150 miles north, and arrived at another large Tolowa tribe of two to three thousand people, the Intermountain Tribe. The Tolowa tribe here did not fight for a long time like their kin in the south.
The attitude towards foreign tribes is not that hostile.
Although Chief Shansong of the Intermountain Department was indifferent, with the interpreter of the hunter Tuowu, he still traded more than 200 people for ten days with the kingdom's fleet from afar. After the fleet replenished the grain and fresh water, there was no
The Tolova people continued to stay in their territory and then went to sea again.
From the intermountain part to the north, along the steep coast for more than two hundred miles, we arrived at the territory of the Coos people. Here, the towering eastern mountains gradually leveled off, turned into low hills, and finally turned into low hills.
Plains where grass and reeds grow. However, this does not mean that the surrounding land is richer and has more tribes. On the contrary, the fleet sees fewer and fewer villages, and the size of the tribes becomes smaller and larger.
Small!
"The further you go towards the colder north... without the mountains to block the cold wave, and without the protection of the valleys... it will be difficult for these tribesmen in the north to form large tribes!"
Mickey the Knowledgeable looked into the distance, looking at the empty and desolate reed swamps along the coast, his expression gradually becoming serious. He could already smell the cold smell in the autumn wind blowing from the north to the south.
"Mickey! North! North! There is a new harbor in the north! It's huge!..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo looked into the distance and shouted excitedly for a while. But when the fleet approached, his excited shouts suddenly became low again.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Uh... okay! You can see the edge of this bay... It doesn't look that big! Haha!"
Zuvarro smiled sarcastically, waved his hand, and pointed toward the mouth of the bay to the east.
"Stay closer! Move closer to the east! Let's go deeper into the bay and have a closer look!...Isn't this the territory of the Kusi people? Keep your eyes open to see where their villages are!"
The five longships turned east and sailed into the mouth of the bay, which was five or six miles wide. Then, a deep and wide lagoon harbor slowly opened in front of the fleet. Everyone measured the water level and determined that this was another deep-water harbor.
Then heading east, the Koos fishing boat also appeared in front of the fleet.
"Okay! Move closer! Move closer! Hey! Are they retreating? Are they avoiding us?"
Exploration captain Zuvalo pondered for a while and then said with a smile.
"Then slow down, follow up, and find their village!"
"Then, we will..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable opened his eyes wide and looked over fiercely.
"Zuvarro?"
"Haha! God bless you! They are our lost brothers..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo smiled and spoke the last half of the sentence slowly.
"Since we are brothers, let's go have a meal! Then, have a good chat with the Kusi elders in the village and ask about the situation in this area..."
"By the way! Mickey, how far have we traveled from Lake Bay Harbor? What is our current latitude?"
"Well...we started from Huwan Port and have traveled eight hundred miles..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable raised his head and looked at the sky where the sun was setting in the west, as if he was seeing the invisible North Star.
"Zuvarro, the latitude I measured last night was around 43 degrees north latitude... We left Jinshan Port and were already 5 degrees north, more than 1,700 miles away!"
"Ah! Is it so far away? North latitude 43 degrees... eight hundred miles from the last port..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo pondered for a while, then said with a smile.
"God bless you! The Kusi people seem to have a lot of fishermen... Let's go to the Kusi people's village and have a meal to see if it tastes good!..."
"If it tastes good, we will leave a ship of people here and set up a kingdom port!"
