Wang Xijia drove a team of cars to Yosemite to find Phoenix Ling to report. He could have come by plane or boat, but there was no airfield here, and there were too many people with him, and there were not such large passenger planes.

If you take a boat, you will need to take a detour from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, which is also a long way, so you can choose to come by car. In those years, there were no highways, so we had to drive dirt roads. After a tiring and bumpy ride, we finally arrived at Yosemite.

Phoenix Ling had been waiting here for a long time, and when she saw Wang Xijia and others arriving, she immediately notified the local officials and reported them layer by layer. Finally, an Aztec who looked like an official arrived, riding a tall horse, and informed Wang Xika to meet the king.

The capital of the Aztecs was in Tenochtitlán, the center of present-day Mexico City. It's still some way from Yosemite.

Fortunately, there is a road to go after entering the Aztec Empire, of course, there are no concrete roads in this era. In remote villages, most of the roads are dirt, but near the big cities, there are stone roads. The Aztecs pressed stone slabs into the ground, and the road surface was smooth and easy to clean.

Wang Xijia's convoy is also much easier. Wang Xijia observed the Aztec city along the way, and only thought it was very interesting. Most of the houses in the countryside on the edge of the city are made of mud, and gradually they become stone houses.

The stone houses in the city are very distinctive, which Wang Xika has never seen in later generations - they are all detached houses, you can't see the traces of stone splicing from the outside, and at dusk you think it is a whole stone carved out of the air.

Wang Xika sat in the car and observed the Aztec people, and the Aztec people stood on the street to observe Wang Xijia. As the saying goes, you stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people watching the scenery look at you from upstairs.

The first thing Wang Xika noticed was the smoke of the Aztecs. Although the Indians in the north also smoked, they did not have a single eye on their hands like the Aztec Empire, and they really spit smoke and smoke.

It is no wonder that Mexico and Cuba in Central America have been rich in high-grade tobacco since ancient times. In later generations, a high-end Cuban cigar was also sold very expensive.

Wang Xijia sat in the car and watched them smoke well, so he opened the car door like an Aztec young man and bought a cigarette and smoked it. It is also wrapped in pure tobacco leaves, and the taste is similar to that of later cigars.

The second thing I noticed was the Aztec costumes, and in the north, everyone basically just wore something randomly, and wrapped the leaves and animal skins around the body.

But the Aztec costumes were very colorful. Men's attire is a little simpler, usually a small apron made of cowhide, long leggings, and then a whole cowhide cloak.

I don't know why, but people in ancient times seem to be very fond of cloak as a costume. The Yi ethnic minority in southwest China also liked to wear cloaks – and Wang Xika had always felt that the Yi were very similar to the Indians.

If you think about it, the ancients probably liked the cloak because it was a very simple costume, as long as it was draped over the body. And the ancient people often went out to hunt or something, and they walked for several days. There is a cloak on his body, which can keep out the cold when sleeping in the wild.

In modern times, cloaks are less practical. Except for pretending to be cool and handsome, basically no one wears a cape anymore.

Some men like to wear that long feather crown on their heads, and that should be a person with a certain status. The feathers are basically the feathers of eagles, and in the Americas, there are many kinds of eagles, so the feathers are relatively easy to get.

It is said that different colors of feathers represent different meanings, and a distinguished person can wear a red phoenix feather. Ordinary people with a little status choose white feathers, and courtships choose blue parrot feathers. And if you choose black feathers, it represents death. Generally, only dueling people or people in the funeral industry will use this feather.

Of course, there are also some young people who like to get colorful feathers, what is conspicuous and what to bring. These young people were the non-mainstream of the Aztecs, and these feathers were equivalent to dyed hair in later generations.

If these young people are allowed to travel through the future generations, they must all be the kind of young men who kill Matt with dyed hair and boundless power of betel nut and cigarette.

The Aztec women's costumes were more varied, with beautiful earrings made of shells and bones, embroidered blouses, and striped skirts, usually white and red and blue embroidered on the edges. In addition, the women have a shawl called "Reposo", which is very durable. It can be worn on the body to keep warm, and it can also be used to shade the sun and keep out the cold at night. If you have a child, you can also use this shawl as a harness.

The Aztec villagers were also observing Wang Xijia and his gang, and everyone was generally curious about Wang Xijia's car "mount", and commented in Aztec language: "These people are really powerful, they can drive steel!"

"It's a foreign spell! so will our High Priest!"

"This man is a distinguished guest invited by our king!"

"Look, there's a white-haired monster in their car!"

"What a white-haired monster, that's the white bear from the north! that's a gift to our king. Generally, those dignitaries like to give some rare animals as gifts. ”

......

The white-haired monster and the white bear in the mouths of the villagers are Zack and Munch's two uncles and nephews, and Wang Xika also brought them with him on this trip. The Aztecs, who had never seen hairy people, described them as white-haired monsters and white bears. Fortunately, Zach and Munch couldn't understand the Aztec language, otherwise they would definitely have to fight with this group of fellows.

"Ah, that guy in the car is a grey beaver, right? And Bloody Fangs?"

"No, I've heard that Grey Beaver and Bloodfang are both kings of the north, so why did they come with this man?

Someone in the crowd recognized the grey beaver and the blood fang, who were after all the kings of the two tribes of North America, Apache and Komochi. You have never seen and heard of the prestige of these two leaders. Talking about it, these two leaders have followed Wang Xijia, what kind of row is this?

"In short, this person is not small!"

"Just now this person bought a cigarette from Xiao Ergou and gave him a piece of gold!"

"Why doesn't he ask me to buy it? My cigarettes are definitely better than the little two dogs!"

Xiao Ergou is the name of the young man Wang Xika who bought cigarettes just now, and it is Gustava Junian in Aztec language. Rural people generally prefer to name poultry and livestock, as is the case in both Asia and the Americas.

Wang Xijia couldn't understand the language of the people, and when he saw the people standing on both sides of the road, he thought they were welcoming him. So he waved his hand frequently.

And the common people thought that Wang Xika was casting a spell on them, or driving them out, so they immediately scattered like birds and beasts and ran away.

Wang Xika didn't care, the natives who didn't know anything about it, they were very casual to watch or run away. As long as they don't intercept their own cars - they don't dare, their convoys are driven by the King's Guard!

A team of fierce Aztec guards rode horses to guard Wang Xijia's convoy, and if anyone dared to come up and stop the car, they would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

Wang Xika continued to observe the customs of the Aztecs, this time mainly observing the architecture of the Aztecs.

He was bent on finding the kind of air defense measures that Phoenix Ling said: large anti-air crossbow arrows, but unfortunately he didn't see it. Maybe none of these bolts will be in the city.

Wang Xika noticed that most of the houses in ordinary Aztec cities were one-story bungalows, and there were no buildings. But closer to the capital, Tenochtitlan, the houses gradually grew in height, forming a stepped pyramid. It's similar to the pyramids of Egypt.

Many people are speculating about whether there is a connection between the pyramids in Egypt and the pyramids in Central and South America, but Wang Xika thinks there should be no connection.

Because the pyramids of Egypt were actually used as tombs for pharaohs and monks. But the pyramids of the Americas were used for human habitation and sacrifice.

And the shape of the pyramids in the two places is also different. The pyramids of Egypt were spires, and the pyramids of the Aztecs were square tops, with platforms on top, and they progressed layer by layer, like a peak contraction, usually with 5 or 6 or more than a dozen floors, and there were stairs on both sides for people to climb up. Egypt's pyramids are generally impossible to climb except for rock climbers – and Egyptian pyramids are not designed to be climbed.

The reason why the Egyptians and the Indians of Central and South America chose the pyramid shape is probably because the people of both places found the triangular shape to be relatively stable.

As the pyramids grew higher and the roads became cleaner, Wang Xijia knew that the capital had arrived. Sure enough, it wasn't long before the captain of the guard dismounted and knelt down on one knee like an Indian on horseback in front of him.

When he saw the Indian, riding a green horse and wearing a phoenix crest, he knew that it was the king of the Aztecs, Tagila Coover, the king of the jungle.

Because only the king can carry a phoenix feather crown made entirely of phoenix hair.

Wang Xika opened the car door and walked towards Tajira Coover, he has seen many kings since the crossing, such as the hairy man's Qiuqiu, the poor, the craftsman's Lianshan, the werewolf's snake, etc., but only this time to see Tajira Coover is the most grand.

Tajira Kufo also dismounted and walked towards Wang Xijia, and as soon as they met, he shook Wang Xijia's hand: "Hello, welcome to my house to play, have you eaten?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Xika couldn't help but be shocked! This Aztec leader actually spoke Chinese! Is the Chinese language so international in this era?

Wang Xijia hurriedly said: "Hello, I haven't eaten yet! Let's go eat together?"

Tagila Coover was embarrassed - it turned out that he only knew that one sentence in Chinese, and it may be that the person who taught him only taught him this sentence.

Luckily, the grey beaver spoke their words and came over to act as an interpreter. While chatting, Tajira Kufer took out a cigarette from her bosom and handed it to Wang Xijia, and said in Chinese: "Come to Genhuazi?"

Such an Indian king spoke such strange Chinese when they met for the first time, Wang Xijia already knew who his Chinese teacher was, that was Yuan Qingniu. Only Yuan Qingniu would be so naughty!
