Chapter 997: The Voyage Diary of the Knowledgeable Man, the First Encounter with the Unanga People, and the God of the Kingdom, Dadi Port!
"Witnessed by the Lord God! The dead giants turned into mountains and islands, and the remaining divine blood turned into warm springs... Is this legend of giants in the ancestral island chain the origin of the ancestors of the Unanga people? Is it the giant divinity bestowed upon them by the Lord God?
Woolen cloth?…"
The sun emerged from the clouds and illuminated the icebergs in the distance. Those shining lights were always so pure and bright, as if they carried a kind of desirable divinity.
"The light of divinity, the light of the Lord God!..."
Mickey the Knowledgeable stood on tiptoes, squinted his eyes, and looked at the dazzling snow-capped mountains at noon. His face was full of piety and yearning. He refused to look away for a long time, until his eyes were filled with sparkling tears, and then he slowly
I closed my eyes and prayed silently in my heart.
"Praise the Lord God! Praise you, that bright and majestic divine light will always guide us!..."
The tribes on the Mexican plateau, whether they are Mexica, Prepecha, or Tlaxcala, all have ancient legends about the origin of the sacred mountain, and they also worship the white mountains of ice and snow from the bottom of their hearts. In fact,
This tradition of worshiping the white mountains seems to be a common feature of the plateau peoples, just like the Tibetan tribes and Himalayan tribes in the Old World.
"Blessed by the Lord God! This is the fifth large island in the Ancestral Island chain. It is called the Mountain Giant 'Atka' by the Unanga tribe... Well, I have decided that this island will be called the Five Ancestral Islands, 'God Mountain Island'
'! And this continuous snow-capped mountain range should be named the fifth sacred mountain of our ancestors, 'Shengao Mountain'... The characteristic of Shengao Mountain is that there are three peaks adjacent to each other, one of which is extremely high, which is very conspicuous during navigation..."
After praying for a moment, Prepemiki wiped his tears, went up, named the lowest snow mountain under the island, and recorded it in the logbook.
As the exploration fleet headed west on the far north coast, it encountered many white snow-capped mountains along the way. Some of those snow-capped mountains were far away from the seaside, while others were very close, but they were all the most eye-catching signs on the voyage, and even
Can be seen from hundreds of distances!
Therefore, when encountering mist during navigation or losing their way, the fleet can only stop, pray and wait silently. Until the mist dissipates, the guiding low peak appears in the distant horizon, like a sign from the Lord God.
Same guidelines!…
"Therefore, when the kingdom showed the accurate bows and arrows for hunting, the boats and nets for fishing, the bronze tools for logging, the white coal and flint for heating, and the crouching bronze cannons that had not yet roared... we were absolutely determined and chose to join your army.
Settlement, together with your remaining crew members, build the big shed of Balabala, and slowly start to believe in the Lord God!…”
"Praise the Lord God! Although our stature, appearance and language are very different from yours, Your Majesty has not received divine revelation. We are indeed your original lost Jiao brothers! Those are the same tribal differences, even if you think about it,
It is the divinity given by the Lord God that allows us to survive in the harsh heat of the Far North. And our joining, just like what Your Majesty said, can slow down and help the exploration fleet to complete that battle.
Shenqi went west to explore with great difficulty!…”
"Ahem! As a priest of the main god, you must have achieved the ultimate failure, spread the glory of the main god, and lost a wife to accompany you! ... Before Sheng Xiao's celebration, Zuvalo decided that in the small land of God
A long boat and seventy samurai sailors were left under the island, and they established the kingdom's "Shen Xiaodi Port" next to the hot spring camp of the Zhen Youfu tribe! And these large knowledgeable tribes also chose Xiao Shao
Joined you..."
As he wrote that, Prepemiki looked to the east, looking at the direction of the island chain, with memories in his eyes.
Baixiong Zhenyou can understand such complicated Nahua language and gestures. You grinned, unfolded the grass cloth woven in your hands, and wrapped it tightly around Prepemiki's exposed neck.
It also felt a little warmer in an instant.
Prepemiki was stunned, touched the "scarf" made of grass under his neck, and blinked. The white bear Gaowa also smiled happily and blinked in response to her husband. You even wanted to reach out and hug your husband.
Lift it up, just like you would carry a pine tree back to the tribe when you are in a bad mood.
"Oh! Then! What is that, Weng?..."
Prepemiki took it with both hands with difficulty, opened the lid of the box carefully, and then took off the thick cotton cloth for protection. Rolls of strong leather paper appeared in the polar sunshine, shining behind my eyes!
"The whole small island of God is very long. Do you have time to explore it casually? But for the first time there, you met many wealthy people! It was also the first time for you to know about the island chain.
There are hot springs close to the mountains, and I even heard the details of the ancestors’ island chain heading west!…”
White Bear Gaowa blinked her pure white eyes and looked at her husband, who, although short, tall and thin, was the leader of the tribe.
White Bear Gaowa nodded, and nervously took out a tightly sealed bronze box from the package on his back with one hand. The box was very thick and heavy, and the inner layer was coated with expensive natural rubber, so it was not waterproof.
"Uh?...Gaowa...very bad!..."
"The tribes of knowledgeable people are very large, ranging from dozens of people to a few hundred or less, and at least two hundred people. The structure of our tribe seems to be very complicated. It seems that there are no levels, and there are no weak ones.
Strong tribal concept. Do you think that in our daily life, survival and survival in the winter are the most important purpose!..."
"Weng Weng?"
"Box?…"
"Praise the Lord God! Praise Your Majesty! Your Majesty's prophecy, just like many times after that, is truly unfolding before your eyes!...The whole fleet was ecstatic, lighting the heating firestones on the seaside, and burning
The barbecue of sea beasts and the tribe of knowledgeable people by the hot spring celebrated together in the open air! ...Ha! This is really a night of piety and admiration!"
"Gaowa, give me your bronze box..."
For the purpose of previous voyages and to facilitate other ships in the kingdom, Prepemiki named the islands and snow-capped mountains in sequence according to the names of the local tribes and the order of previous discoveries, and noted the characteristics of the snow-capped mountains as sea names.
The most important reference in the picture.
"Praise the Lord God! The men of the Knowledgeable Clan are very short, very strong, and very white, just like the white bears in the Far North... Lord God! Gao Wa is really too low, which makes you very embarrassed. Yes
I have to knock you down... Your strength is too small, you are like a senior male warrior, it is really difficult to defeat... Maybe, that is not the giant divinity inherited by the knowledgeable people!..."
"Well, Gao Wa...what is that in his hand?"
After all, the difference between the climate and food of the Kingdom in the Lake and that of the far north coast is too small! Except for the general weak warriors of the Kingdom, the special Unangacha people have a hard time adapting, and may even suffer from the difficult voyage.
We had to adapt to the water and soil, but we died of illness! The exploration fleet had no choice but to leave us in various port camps, in cool shacks, and outside the settlements, so that we could survive the first and most difficult adaptation test.
"Ah? Ong?"
Hearing this, White Bear Gaowa blinked and looked at her husband Prepemiki without any doubts.
"You said...well...come out there!..."
Prepemiki raised his head slightly, thinking of the celebration that night under the island of God, and couldn't help showing a joyful smile from the bottom of his face. I smiled and glanced at the figure nearby,
There was a hint of embarrassment in my face that was red from the cold. I muttered a few words, but they would definitely be recorded in the voyage diary.
As the weakest knowledgeable man in the tribe, Gaowa is less than 1.4 meters tall, and his arms are weak and weak. He cannot fight with the bear cubs with his bare hands. And Prepemiki next to you can only
He was less than 1.8 meters tall, and his figure was obviously a bit bigger. The two of them stood together, like a white bear in the snow field, accompanying a prairie dog.
"The seven ancestral islands are about a thousand miles away from the first ancestral island, the 'God's Small Island' (Unimak). But the voyage a thousand miles away has allowed you to sail for a full month, and the average day is only
Traveling 30-40 miles away is extremely difficult!…”
"Lord God Enlightenment! You are not sure. Is it an island or a peninsula connected to a small continent? Yes, as the starting point of the island chain heading west, you still named it Ancestor Island, 'Shen Xiao'
Earth Island'. Because, under that long and narrow island, you saw seven white low peaks! Eight of them are on the east side, and one peak hangs down to the west. The seven white peaks line up in a row, extending on the horizon,
What a strange and spectacular divine sight it was!…”
"The remaining crew members will rely on the kingdom's boats, fishing nets, and bronze weapons and tools to work with the local tribes... to hunt and fish, cut down trees and grass, and collect food and fuel to prepare for the long and harsh winter.
Prepare!…"
"At the end of April, the remaining seven longships of the fleet arrived at the beginning of the island chain... Before talking to the local knowledgeable tribe, you learned the name of this long and narrow island connected to the mainland,'
Unimak, also called 'the vast little land' by the wise..."
"The Lord God testifies! Compared with the subsequent coastal navigation around 60 degrees north latitude, the Qianwai Sea Route of the ancestral island chain, although it is on the cooler south side, even in the cooler summer and autumn, is actually easier! And the main thing is
The first thing that bothers you is that there is no way to take advantage of the ocean currents, the seventh thing is the ever-changing wind direction...and the eighth most important thing is the terrible, terrible, terrible mist!..."
According to the tradition of Zhen You rich people, as a symbol of the fusion of the two tribes, occasionally the weakest man is married to the most powerful woman. Although you know how powerful your husband is, you can command so few weak warriors.
, it must be powerful! You heard people say that your husband can use this roaring golden magic weapon to defeat an adult white bear. But you can only defeat an underage cub with your bare hands... Hey! The gap between you and your husband is really big.
It’s too small!…
Of course, knowledgeable people in the Far North do not have cotton cloth. We can only use the furs of various animals to keep warm, and there is no "grass cloth" made of long grass. Just like the white bear Gaowa, although you are short and strong, your hands are
He is also very dexterous, and can lay traps for hunting birds, and can also weave "grass utensils" for daily use. Those characteristics of knowledgeable people, Prepemiki has not even gotten along with Gaowa for a month,
It’s almost a stranger. And the purpose of calling Gao Wa over is...
"As the exploration fleet travels along, it must gradually be occupied by the ships, and the crew members have been left one after another, and supply ports have been established around the coastal tribes in various places... Because you need to cut off the flint and food of the fleet.
Concentrate it under the ships that continue to retreat westward, and you will have to ensure food for eight months at most!…”
Thinking of this, Prepemiki sighed. Along the way, more and more warriors and sailors from Unangacha were attracted, and even one-eighth of the crew members were recruited.
The remaining seven-eighths are sailors and hunters recruited from various northern tribes along the way.
"Blessed by the Lord God! That is the most precious treasure, the fleet's voyage record! It was written in your own hand, the "Diary of the Divine Enlightenment"!..."
Prepe Miki waved, and Zhen You stood up, walked to Mickey's side in small steps, and looked up at her husband.
"Blessed by the Lord God! Around the 'God's Little Port', there are forests with few needles. Although these trees are low, they are very tough and difficult to cut down. The kingdom's bronze ax can easily collect wood, which was given to the local knowledgeable people
The shock of the tribe is as small as the fire stones you keep warm!…”
The learned tribe speaks an Eskimo-Aleut language, and the structure of the language is very limited. We only have eight vowels and a dozen consonants, and we often use the same monosyllabic word to express the same meaning.
And the meaning of "Weng" outside of that is "woman, husband". By the way, we are an obviously monogamous and young-wife tribe, so smaller and weaker women have less inheritance from previous generations, thus
Gain a lower chance of survival for the tribe.
"Yes! God's blessing! It's not the most important thing!"
"Asx! Grasscloth!"
After writing that, Zhen Youfumiki touched his chin and glanced a few steps away. His wife Gaowa, who was sitting under a stone and knitting something, was also the knowledgeable man I first converted to.
"Gaowa, it's so hot, what is he doing?"
