"Ancestor! I have spoken good words for you... They will keep you as a coolie sailor. They kill people and eat people. You have to be obedient and don't mess with them..."
"..."
"When we reach the shore later, we will find an opportunity and run together! ... You are familiar with the jungle and running in the forest, I will follow you! I am familiar with the island and running on the island, you follow me! ..."
"..."
"You told them about that dark oil island... I'm not familiar with it, but you are familiar with it. If you run around on this island, I'll follow you!... Hey, you're talking!..."
"..."
There was no candlelight in the swaying cabin, only a little morning light filtering through. Sushu held a small piece of cool roasted tapir meat, licked his lips reluctantly, and then handed it to the Locono man.
Captive, in Akachi's hands.
"Is this...given to me?..."
"Yes! Ah Yue, you eat!..."
In the Arawakan language, "Kaachi" means "moon", so the name Kaachi is "Ayue". For Kaachi, this is a very easy to understand and very important word.
What a nice name! Just like "Sun" in Arawakan, the nice "Hadali". And among the Arawakan tribes, there is indeed such a habit of calling women with "Sun" and "Hadali".
"The moon" symbolizes men.
At this moment, Sushu, who was born in the Taino tribe, looked at Ah Yue, who was born in the Lokono tribe, and Ah Yue also looked at him closely. They had similar looks, and the tattoos on their faces and bodies,
They also have many similar characteristics, but the specific patterns are different. And the language they communicate also has too many ancient words in common, such as "sun and moon", "cassava and turtle", "man and woman",
"Tobacco and totem", "jungle and big island"! And all of this reveals their common ancestral origin!
In fact, their ancestors do come from the same origin, the Arawakan people who brought cassava north from the hinterland of South America more than a thousand years ago or more!
Then, as the two most important branches of the Arawacan language family, the Taino people arrived in the Caribbean Islands and thrived in Cuba and Haiti! The Locono people stayed on the coast of South America, between the Orinoco River and the Amazon River.
It continues in the jungle. The separation between the two tribes was cut off hundreds of years ago by the rising Caribbean tribes and the island chain on the eastern border!
At this moment, after hundreds of years of isolation, the two Arawakan tribes met again on the sea. However, this time the people who met were white-skinned people who were more ferocious and cruel than the Caribbean people.
!
"Hoo, Ayonbanan! The spirit is flying! The meat is delicious!..."
The captive Ah Yue carefully took the meat and quickly stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it like a hungry mole. After eating, he licked his lips and looked at the "smart" Shushu with a hopeful look on his face.
, shook his head and replied.
"You can't run! You can't run from Black Oil Island! There are Caribbean people on the island!... They will catch us, 'Ka Ka', and we can't escape!..."
"..."
The hope in Shuiya's eyes gradually dimmed. The morning sun became brighter and brighter. When the Portuguese call came from the deck, the "smart" Shuiya immediately trembled all over and spoke with an accent.
Weird Portuguese, he responded hurriedly.
"Chegando! Come here!..."
There was news about the Caribbean people on Heiyou Island, but Sushu kept it in his stomach and did not report it to the fair-skinned captain. Even though this quiet captain who didn't like to talk looked much kinder than the previous fierce and loud captain...
But the contempt hidden in his eyes, the same look as looking at prey, cannot be hidden from his "smart" potato!
"Ayong Banan, you are so spirited!...They will eventually eat people, and they will eat me, just like they eat other people!...And that white skin is the color of death!..."
Sushu thought silently and did his chores silently. As the last survivor among more than a dozen Tainos who were captured on the boat, he had seen the lair of the "white-skinned man", oh no, it was the "Cidade"
". He was very smart. Under the threat of whipping and death, he quickly learned one of their languages. He also fell from the hands of one captain to another, and then went to sea again...
Countless unforgettable nightmares were deeply engraved in Sushu's mind, making him more silent and more docile. He just silently held on to the hope of escape, experiencing terrible sailings and storms along the way, and almost being eaten again.
After a nightmare, he returned to the southern coast that was very much like his hometown, and even met people of the same race who spoke the same language...
At this moment, he also watched silently as the sailboat left the southern coast of the jungle and the raging Orinoco River. Then, the two large ships adjusted their direction and sailed quickly to the northeast. After only two days and nights, they ran very fast
The sailboat arrived at the "Black Oil Island" that A Yue said was very far away!
"O Lord! On this green island, there is such a black void! When the native captive first said it, I thought it was just a small black quagmire... Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a black void.
Lake, a lake where black oil gathers! It’s such a large area, an evil place braving the deep darkness!…”
When the "Black Oil Lake" in Trinidad, which is 46 hectares and the largest asphalt lake on earth, suddenly appeared in front of the Portuguese sailors, everyone opened their eyes in disbelief and looked at this
A "dark place" that is unimaginable even in bedtime horror stories!
The sky and jungle are reflected on the dark lake, but they are smeared with deep black, and even the human figures are dark. The extremely sticky asphalt is like melted black wax, outlining various dark and strange shapes, as if it were daytime
The night demon is struggling in it. And in the center of the black lake, the bubbling black oily slurry is like the womb of the abyss, gestating the evil of the underground devil!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And such a terrifying picture of the devil fell in the eyes of the Portuguese exploration fleet, just like the darkness of the underground abyss descending on the world! This is just like the darkest scene described by the priests
The terrifying scene of hell made everyone, no matter nobles or sailors, tremble in shock!
"O Holy Mother! Evil! What an evil! What an evil Devil's Island!... God bless you! Your glory will definitely be on the silver cross, guarding me at all times!..."
Bruno murmured to himself and couldn't help but hold the silver cross amulet tightly. This was the last gift given to him by Captain Diogo. It is said to be a family heirloom of Captain Dias and a "sacred law" blessed by the church bishop.
"Weapon"! And with such a powerful magic weapon, no matter how dark the night devil or evil devil is, they will not be able to invade his body or eat his shadow!
However, not everyone has the exorcism cross in the hands of Captain Bruno. Not everyone believes in God as much as he does. On the contrary, in such a foreign land far away from God, sailors are often far less afraid of the devil.
Extremely reverent to the Lord!
Therefore, when a group of "evil devils" smeared with black oil, suddenly waving strange "claws", rushed from the corner of the asphalt lake, and let out a terrifying cry... more than thirty landing crew members, whether they were knights or
The sailors were all scared out of their wits! They screamed hysterically in fear, turned their heads and exposed their backs, and fled desperately to the docked sailboat!
"O Lord! It's the devil! It's the devil! They emerge from the evil black lake!"
"Our Lady of Blessing! Our Lady of Blessing! Our Lady of Blessing protect me from the evil of the devil!…"
"Ah! Don't eat me!...Ah!!..."
The shrill screams kept coming from behind. The screams were like the gnawing of devils, making the sailors running in front of them flee in even more panic. Dozens of "black oil devils" chased them from behind, stabbing them out.
"Spear-like claws" stabbed to death one after another the four sailors whose hands and feet were weak and fell to the ground!
This terrifying chase lasted for a full moment. Everyone in the fleet showed almost no resistance and just ran away for their lives. Until the "devil" chase approached the ship, and accompanied by the scholar Martin's shout on the ship, the roaring artillery fired into the air.
Boom!
"Fogo! Fire!"
"Boom! Boom!..."
"...!Thunder, monsters, sea monsters!!..."
The chasing black oil "devils" suddenly stopped. They stared at the strange ship, shouted incomprehensible words, looked frightened amidst the loud thunder, then turned their heads suddenly, and dispersed like this!
