"It's a good axe. The oncoming axe was snatched by Xiao Peng, and he put it in his hand and looked at it: "Oh, or a pipe axe?"

It is said that pipes and axes are originally treasures that Indian men cannot do without in their lives, you know, the Americas are the origin of tobacco, and Indian men are generally old smoking guns and regard pipes as life. The axe, on the other hand, is a powerful weapon that they use to hunt wild beasts against their enemies.

The axes used by the Indians were not long axes, but short axes, which were used to throw and kill enemies or prey, and it was one of these flying axes that Xiao Peng captured. The earliest Indian flying axes were stone axes with worn edges and corners, and it was not until the 16th century that Europeans entered North America, and the Indians had metal tomahawks.

But the pipe axe, on the other hand, is a different kind of flying axe, and more often than not, it is a symbol of the status of an Indian man: the hollow handle is actually a pipe, and on the opposite side of the axe blade is a pipe.

Because the axe and the pipe both played a very important role in the eyepoint tribe, both were indispensable, and it was very inconvenient to carry both things on the body when hunting or fighting, later, the Indians of the Dakota tribe and the Algonquin tribe cleverly combined the two into one and invented the pipe axe. The other end of the axe blade was converted into a tobacco pouch pot, and the original solid wooden handle was replaced with a hollow hardwood pipe so that the Indians could smoke at the same time.

However, due to the complexity of the production, their owners are generally reluctant to throw out the flying axes to hurt people, so gradually, the pipe axes have become more often a status symbol, a symbolic decoration, or an Indian man's scepter: when a tribe accepts another tribe as its ally, it directly presents a pipe axe of its own to the other tribe, which means that the covenant is formed.

In some tribes, the position of the pipe axe is higher, for example, in the Lakta tribe, this pipe axe is the chief's order flag, is the scepter representing the chief's sacred rights, as long as the chief swings the pipe axe, all the warriors will follow the order to charge or retreat, it is said that in the history of the Lakta tribe, no warrior has ever been punished for violating the command of the pipe axe, which shows the importance of the pipe axe in their minds.

In today's Stars and Stripes, the pipe axe is still a symbol of many Indians. If you're traveling to the Stars and Stripes and someone hands you an axe and asks you to take a puff of tobacco inside, don't say no. Take a brave puff, or beware of the blade of the pipe axe coming at you. Because words that are not smoked are disrespectful and provocative. It is easy to cause disputes.

To put it mildly, there will be a heart-shaped hollow in the middle of the blade of a regular pipe axe to prove that you love peace. Words + take an axe and tell others that you love peace, so does anyone really believe it?

The pipe axe in Xiao Peng's hand can only be described as beautiful: the handle of the axe is wrapped with rattlesnake skin, the handle is wrapped in cowhide, the axe blade has a beautiful pattern, and the pipe is in the style of an Indian tent.

"Wow, I just came here, and you gave me such a nice gift, thank you!" Xiao Peng said to the owner of the axe. He had already seen clearly that this was an Indian girl who was talking about the axe, she could look like fifteen or sixteen years old, Xiao Peng had never seen her before, and this target was obviously not aimed at himself.

"Leslie, what are you doing? what about your mother?" called out to Pooh the girl.

"Sister Pooh, why are you?" the girl named Leslie looked surprised when she saw Pooh.

Pooh pointed at Xiao Peng and said, "Leslie, this is my friend, I want to come to Aunt Ammon to buy something." ”

Leslie sighed and said, "My mother is hurt, Sister Pooh, you guys get out of here quickly, my house is not safe now." ”

"Unsafe?" Pooh didn't know why, at this moment, a Ford pickup truck drove over and stopped on the road at the door, the car had not stopped, a man sitting in the back compartment flew a stone directly, Xiao Peng's eyes were quick, and he stretched out his hands to pull Pooh and Leslie behind him. I heard a snap, and the glass on the door was shattered by the stone!

There was laughter in the car. An Indian man in a suit got out of the passenger seat: "I 。。。。。。 ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Peng raise his hand, and the pipe axe in his hand flew out, sticking to the man's arm and nailing his clothes to the wagon of the pickup truck.

The people in the car were taken aback.

"Who are you?" asked the man who was pinned to the car, taking a cool breath.

Xiao Peng snorted coldly: "Don't care who I am! What kind of stones are you throwing around? It scared my friend!"

The man in the suit took a lot of effort to pull out the axe embedded in the car, and looking at the sharp axe blade, he also took a breath, which was a little worse, and his arm was useless!

He was just about to speak, when several men jumped out of the back compartment, all of whom were Indians and physically strong. The one at the front was the one who had just thrown a stone and smashed the glass. I saw him snort coldly: "What's wrong with smashing glass? Why don't you hurry up and get out, let you lie down and go back!"

The man in the suit looked at the axe in his hand, and then looked at Xiao Peng and the two of them were now empty-handed, and the man in the suit stopped talking.

Xiao Peng said to Yang Meng in Chinese: "Mengzi, you take everyone into the house." ”

Yang Meng grinned: "What's the matter, these wastes still need to go to the house?

Xiao Peng shook his head: "There are children here, and this is the Stars and Stripes Country, what if someone has a gun?"

"Then take them in. Maintain your image!I'll do the dirty work!" Yang Meng replied.

"No, you don't have a light or heavy shot, what if you kill someone? What if you cripple someone?" Xiao Peng shook his head.

The two people had been communicating in Chinese, and they directly ignored those people, and the man who threw the stone just now bent down and touched another stone from the ground, weighed the weight in his hand a few times, and smashed it hard at Xiao Peng: "Yellow monkey! Don't ignore us!"

Xiao Peng didn't react, and when he saw that the stone was about to hit him in the face, a hand stretched out next to him and grabbed the stone directly.

Yang Meng looked at the stone in his hand: "Hold the grass, buddy, this stone is going to hit your head, you can basically say goodbye to life." These Indians are really ruthless. ”

When Xiao Peng glanced at Yang Meng's hand, he pushed a few girls: "Go into the house." What annoys me the most is racism. "Aren't you ruthless?

In other words, as the true aborigines of North America, the survival of the Indians has been a big problem since the Europeans arrived on the American continent. Oh, now it's going to be called 'native Americans,' and if you call Indians, that's racism.

In good conscience, the history of the Indians can only be described in three words: 'too miserable'.

Since the Indian Exclusion Act in 1830, the Indians were forced to move westward, and nearly 1/4 of the Indians lost their lives under the torture of cold, hunger and disease on this long westward migration road, and to this day, this westward migration road is still called the "Road of Blood and Tears" by the Indians.

By 1876, the Stars and Stripes had begun to establish Indian reservations. Let the Indians live here to avoid conflict with the whites, but here, the Indians were forcibly stripped of their right to hunt and were required to develop agriculture and animal husbandry. So the problem of hunger has always been with the Indians.

Beginning in 1892, Stars and Stripes built an Indian boarding school. By 1930, the Stars and Stripes had ordered the closure of all Indian residential schools, but it was not until 1960 that all Indian residential schools disappeared entirely.

There, Indians were forcibly assimilated, forbidden to use their original names, not allowed to speak Indian languages, changed their hairstyles and habits, experienced corporal punishment that they had never experienced before, and were even sexually abused by their caretakers.

The image of these schools on the entire race of Indians is indelible. Except for those on reservations, almost all of the Indians today have Westernized names, which are a custom left over from that time.

The educational approach adopted in Indian boarding schools at that time。。。。。。 Alas, Huaxia's electric shock Yang Screaming Beast's Internet addiction treatment school is all pediatrics compared to them!

And now the Stars and Stripes pay attention to equality and prohibit racial discrimination, and the status of the Indians is much higher, and the people who are still swallowing clouds and spitting fog in the non-smoking occasions in the Stars and Stripes Countries are basically Indians.

Today's Indians are basically kept in captivity, and their reservations are generally in places with poor natural conditions, and although they have a high degree of autonomy, they have limited resources for development. Reservations with a bit of natural beauty, such as Arizona's Antelope Valley, are Navajo reservations, and a parking lot alone can cost you a few dozen dollars. Like the Great Smoky Mountains where Xiao Peng went, there was a Cherokee reservation. You want to fish there? You have to pay for it if you have a fishing license!

The current Indian reservation is basically full of casinos. Gambling is prohibited in most of the Stars and Stripes, except for a few states, but casinos on Indian reservations are legal to gamble, and there is a proper noun called 'tribal casino.' ’

Nowadays, most Indians choose to live in the city, but because of education, cultural habits and other problems, it is difficult to integrate into the local society, so the Indians are also a contradictory race.

In terms of national characteristics, they are upright and simple, rich in feelings, calculating, generous, gentle and modest, resolute, brave and good at fighting, and can be called the most morally noble nation in the world.

But just such a race has become the nation with the highest crime rate in the Stars and Stripes now, which can only make people sigh.

The Indians are really not afraid of breaking the law, in the eyes of a considerable number of Indians, what they do makes sense, the Stars and Stripes were so cruel to the Indians back then, and now this is making up for the mistakes made back then.

So, they are really ruthless!

In this case, let's just let Yang Meng go hard.

Isn't it said that the Indians were North America reached by Chinese merchants through the Bering Strait?

It's all from the same root, then let's see which side is more ruthless!
