Chapter 237: The Sun Queen (1)

The capital of the Sun Country is also a city on a mountain, about two hundred miles away from the valley where we metallurgically and shipbuilding.

In this way, we are the people of this sea country today.

After having a divine horse like the Mighty Sky and the Crane in the Clouds, Qin Chong and I, and the three of us were fortunate to witness the whole picture of this sea country in addition to hunting every day.

The whole country lives on slash-and-burn farming, farming, and animal husbandry, and the royal castle of the stone castle above the clouds is much larger in scale than the one seen in the south.

This sea country has no counties, and is formed by a collection of loose tribes.

The king's authority lies in the fact that he is the messenger of the sun god and holds the calendar and the major events of the world's agricultural seasons.

When it is time to plant cassava, it is at the king's orders, and when it is time to harvest buds, the king also gives orders.

In the event of an invasion by a powerful clan from outside the territory, the king can also raise his shoulders and call on the whole country to fight against it.

Such a way of governing the country is a bit like the feudal system in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Han Dynasty in China and the Warring States Period.

The king and the sea kingdom he ruled over were the feudal fiefs of the princes.

The tribes of the indigenous eagles and mountains are the closest to us, and they are also in the border areas of this sea country.

I was very worried that the men and women of their tribe were becoming more and more civilized, and from us they learned the art of metallurgy and shipbuilding, and the forging of copper knives and agricultural tools.

From then on, he will stand on the throne and become a powerful party, and no longer accept the control of the Sea King Clan.

If that were the case, we would become sinners in this sea nation.

With these thoughts in mind, I wanted more and more to see what the monarch of the Sun Kingdom was like.

If I am an enlightened and virtuous person, I will help him to save the country from the disaster of war and devastation after we are gone.

If it is a stupid and cruel ruler, it is the right way of heaven for civilization to subrogate the barbaric and benevolence to the evil.

We don't need to push the flames, we can go back with confidence.

Whether the continent of this sea country changes or does not change, how it should change is up to the indigenous people of Eagle Tsai and Shanzai to grasp it themselves, and it has nothing to do with us and other merchants in the Western Wilderness.

According to the summer calendar, it is now December.

The winter solstice is approaching, and the continent's second solar festival of the year is just around the corner.

The natives in the workshop have no intention of doing anything, and they all want to return as soon as possible.

With half a year's hard work in exchange for copper knives, copper axes, grain wine, potato wine, follow the tribe to the royal city of the sea country, worship the sun gods, and meet the girl you like.

And those indigenous women who are working in the back kitchen and helping to make wine have already fought with Lin Qing, Lin He and other teenagers.

I also want to take this opportunity to lead them back to the tribe and introduce them to the elders of the tribe,

At the scene of the Sun Festival, he got the permission of the Sun Messenger and His Royal Highness the King, and became good friends with these foreign youths.

Therefore, people's minds returned, and the metallurgical and forging sites, which were originally orderly and in full swing, were suddenly deserted.

Including our own people, we all began to slack off and be lazy, and the wine and food at noon were able to drink until the red sun set.

Fortunately, all the nail rivets needed for shipbuilding were prepared, and all the wood, gum, cables, and leather sails were all ready.

Today's rush to work is just to let these indigenous brothers learn more skills and save more belongings.

Since they don't want to do it anymore, everyone just breaks up.

After discussing with me, Brother Lin decided to give everyone a month's long holiday from now on until after the Spring Festival.

During these days, eat, drink, and swim in the mountains and rivers.

In the more than a year since we came ashore, we have not been sweating and toiling for a day, and it is time to have some fun and rest for ourselves.

Otherwise, wouldn't he have lived up to God's arrangement and walked in vain in this southern wilderness country.

Six months after the year to build the ship, just in time for the southwest wind on this continent, we hung up the sails and went home.

After the wine was stored and distributed to the indigenous guys, there were still 100 barrels left, and the buds and cassava exchanged for sporadic bartering for half a year were still piled up, and several wild girls who were messing with Lin Qing and them volunteered to stay as cooks.

All the trivial things are arranged, there is no need to forge iron in the morning and go out hunting in the afternoon, and the little Inca has indigenous cooks to take care of it, it is really nothing to do!

Unlike Qin Chong and Guo Helmet, my preferred entertainment is to sleep with my head covered.

This sleep was dark, and it seemed to make up for all the sleep that had fallen since the kingdom of Yavati.

Every day, only when the Inca girl brings a meal, will she wake up for a moment in the intimate children's voice of "Ah Da Ah Da".

After gobbling it up, he fell asleep again.

It took five days and nights of sleep like this that I woke up completely.

I felt happy and my eyes opened, and the whole world became colorful.

"Brother Xian, you are so good at sleeping! It's not good to bother you as a brother! Come on, come on! When you wake up from a big dream, only wine can relieve the dust! Hahaha! ”

Brother Lin and Uncle Tian were drinking and talking on the stone platform next to the house, and when they saw me walking out of the house in high spirits and sweating, I personally poured a bowl of sake and brought it forward.

"Hurry! Hurry! Thank you, big brother! ”

I took the wine bowl and drank it all, and a sweet and mellow breath that resounded in my stomach rushed straight to the dantian.

"Brother Xian must be the reincarnation of the god of sleep, hehe! As a brother, I don't have such a good fortune as you, I can't sleep well if I can't hear the noise of the waves, so I can only drink some old wine with Tian Bo and them to catch up on old things and spend time! ”

Brother Lin smiled and sighed, his gray-white beard fluttering in the hot wind.

I think when I first met Brother Lin in the Bazaar of Beloea, in Rome, how graceful and high-spirited this gentleman was!

In confusion, he is already an old man who has gone through vicissitudes.

"Big brother is working so hard, why don't you go and have a show? The young wild girl is not in lead, the wild and charming stunner in the world! Hahaha! ”

In the afternoon, the cicadas in the valley are full of sounds, and the indigenous cooks who have finished their work are bathing and playing in the river stream in the distance.

The sound of laughter came faintly, making people's hearts ripple unconsciously.

"With Lin Qing and Brother Chun on the side, how can you ignore Sven as an elder! Hahaha! Virtuous brother, go and be happy! Having old wine for my brother is enough for my life! ”

Brother Lin patted me on the shoulder, laughed again, stopped talking to me, and went back to the stone platform.

When a heat wave hit, I felt itchy all over my body, and then I remembered that I hadn't taken a shower in the past few days.

The felt coat on his body smelled hard and foul, and was covered with gray-white salt scale.

I hurried back to the house to find a change of summer shirt, and went straight to the river, plunging into the jade-like waves.

The woman's coquettish laughter came faintly, and I immersed myself in the water and imagined, as if I had returned to the distant Peacock River, and the Kujia sisters who had returned from the purchase of horses.

At that time, we were all young people!

At dusk, accompanied by the crisp sound of horses' hooves, Qin Chong and Guo Helmet returned with the little Inca girl walking their horses.

Thunder didn't see me for five days, but he could still recognize his master, and he screamed and broke free from the pull of the pot helmet and ran towards me affectionately.

"Young master! We've found the capital of this sea country! I'll take you over another day! ”

Qin Chong never returned empty-handed every time he went out, and while he greeted me loudly, he unloaded the day's prey from his horse, a fat brown-backed boar.

The pot helmet lifted the Inca from the saddle, and the little baby ran to me like a happy yellow dog.

I happily picked up the little girl and put her in the saddle of the thunderous horse.

"Young master, the king of this sea country is a young woman, it is said that she knows the ancient and modern witchcraft, and we will meet her one day!"

The pot helmet mysteriously told me a strange story, and his expression seemed familiar.

Thinking about it, when he talked about the wolf goddess outside Guzang City, Liangzhou, Hexi, he was like this.

"Can a witch be a king? Interesting! Let's go tomorrow! As the envoy of the Great Han, the queen has to summon us! ”

"Since it's a foreign envoy, you must bring a gift when you go to see that queen, right?"

"Of course! Lin He! Help us make two copper knives tonight! ”

Lin He and Brother Chun were coming to answer Qin Chong and took the boar prey, and I hurriedly commanded.

Of our eighteen brothers on the ship, only Lin He's forging bronze techniques are first-class, and he has the legacy of a cadre.

"This piece of cake is a piece of cake, with the help of Chong Zai and Guo Zai, and the deerskin scabbard can also be done together! Yi Zi, what do you take to thank me? Give me one of the luminous sea pearls on your waist! In the future, I will return to Nan'an County to let the matchmaker talk about a family matter, and I can use it as a dowry! ”

Of course, Lin He knew the value of the Luminous Sea Pearl, but the lion opened his mouth to ask me for it.

"Brother Lin He, I'm sorry! For the brothers, these two pearls have already had the main family, and the wife and little sister in the family each have one, and there is no reason to give it to others. However, the elder brother's family affairs can be helpful for the brother, and there is no need for the matchmaker to intervene! Tell the eldest brother what kind of woman you want to marry, everyone is beautiful or a small jasper? Is it okay for orchids in the north? ”

As I spoke, I stepped on my horse, ready to take the Inca for a walk around the river before sunset.

And the Lin He brothers are at the age of youth and unscrupulous, and they have been messing with those indigenous women all day long, so it is just a joke to ask for the Luminous Sea Pearl to give the beauty.

"If your own family affairs follow the orders of your parents, you don't have to worry about it! Hahaha! ”

The brothers all burst out laughing, and my mind had flown to the royal city of the native sea kingdom.

What kind of woman will that Sun Queen be?
