“…… In short, when he first met the people of Hongshutizgan, he used the flare gun on the motorboat to shoot a flare into the sky, and a dazzling fireworks were fired into the sky, which frightened the natives into thinking that they were the gods, and finally temporarily deterred them.

Then, after a brief standoff, the Honshutizgans presented the senior with some food such as fruit and corn as a gesture of friendship, and the senior returned the favor with a crystal skull by his side...... That's pretty much it, right? ”

After Professor Yang introduced the historical materials of this time and space that he had consulted from later generations, Cai Rong immediately took out a notebook and asked Wen Desi about his experience after crossing over, and then recorded the answers in as much detail as possible with a ballpoint pen.

“…… Well, that's pretty much it! After a few more days, I made a few deals with them, and when I became acquainted, Chief Avaha invited me to live with them in their village. I thought about it and agreed, after all, it's not nice to be exposed to the sun and rain on the beach...... Next, I met the chief's eldest daughter, Maka, and I didn't know it was Weishenme, so I slowly became obsessed with her...... Then the old chief finally nodded and gave Princess Maca in marriage to me, and I became a member of the tribe. ”

“…… Wow, that sounds romantic! Regarding Wen Desi's love in a different time and space, Cai Rong's eyes sparkled when she heard it for a while, "...... It feels like the plot of the American movie "Pocahonta"! (Note)

“…… Alas, the reality is not as romantic as in the movies, and you will understand when you stay here a little longer. Besides, after I married Maca, everything on that motorboat was confiscated by the chief's father-in-law......"

Wen Deji shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile and continued, "...... The 1,000 MadeinChina crystal glass skulls were basically all used by the chieftains, either to pay tribute to the Aztec Empire and sue for peace, or to exchange food and other necessities with the surrounding tribes......

Of course, I know that this can't be helped, who calls the current situation in this country really bad? The capital was burned to the ground, most of the people fled, and an Aztec army was still entrenched in the territory, which felt a lot like the small courts of the Southern Ming Dynasty after Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself on the coal mountain, or Chairman Chiang who fled to Sichuan during the Anti-Japanese War...... In short, there is only a remnant of mountains and rivers left, which is not optimistic! ”

-- It is also thanks to Wen Deji that he is a Chinese with modern concepts, so he will watch his little belongings being spent by his father-in-law, without much reaction, and even take it for granted - marrying someone else's daughter, how can there be any reason not to ruin his family for this?

If it had been a European contemporary, I am afraid that it would have jumped up a long time ago.

In general, the Chinese are a more tolerant or gentle people by nature, and they are easy to say anything when they are at home, but they will become timid and afraid once they go out. When most Chinese go to a foreign country, they are generally cautious for fear of getting into trouble. Even if he is found in trouble, he usually endures it if he can, compromises and retreats as much as possible, and only when he can't bear it anymore will he turn his face and use force.

If you are fortunate enough to be warmly treated by foreigners, Chinese will remember it for a long time, always thinking about how to reciprocate courtesy, and how to repay the hospitality of others. Except for a very small number of people who are full of evil, there will generally be no revenge.

The European explorers of this era were not so polite to the uncivilized natives.

During the Age of Discovery, European expeditions roamed Shijie, sometimes receiving hospitality from indigenous tribes, food and drink, and occasional devotion to indigenous maidens. However, no matter how hospitable they were, as soon as the natives offered to take something from their sailboats as a gift, these European explorers, who had just eaten people's short mouths, would immediately turn their backs, some would immediately pull anchors and leave, while others, more ferocious, would simply greet these "benefactors" with guns and cannons. …,

No way, in their eyes, those who don't believe in God are not human beings at all, as long as they treat them like animals......

(In this case, refer to the encounter of Magellan's fleet in the Pacific.) ）

If it was the Chinese who first discovered the Americas, rather than the brutal and greedy white Europeans, the Indians might have fared much better.

Well, to get back to the point, on the other hand, in the 20 months that Mr. Moon-Tak has traveled to the kingdom of Hungshutizgan, the entire history of Mesoamerica does not seem to have changed much, except for the thousand crystal skulls that were scattered because of him.

The Aztecs of this time and space, as recorded in history, suffered an unprecedented defeat when attacking the Tlaxcala Alliance, resulting in a great loss of military strength and internal instability in the country, and they were temporarily unable to wage war again against the distant kingdom of Honshutizgan.

Therefore, the Emperor of Montezuma, seeing the face of the glittering crystal skulls, reluctantly approved the peace sued by the Avaha chieftain, and withdrew an Aztec army that had been stranded in the territory of the Hungshutizgan kingdom to be used in the crusade against the rebellious city-states near the Valley of Mexico.

And the food exchanged for some other crystal skulls also allowed the displaced people of Hungyutizgan to survive the most difficult time.

However, although the military crisis from the enemy was temporarily lifted, a new catastrophe befell the people of Hungshutizgan.

-- Three months after his arrival, a great plague broke out among the people of Hungshutizgan, the exact cause of which is still unknown. In short, his newly married wife, Maka, his sister Tia, and his father-in-law, the old chieftain Avaha, fell ill first, with a fever that burned all over his body, and the witch doctor of this tribe seemed to curse people to die quickly...... In desperation, he had to feed them a few cold medicine and antibiotic capsules, but the results were surprisingly good - all three of them quickly recovered.

For a time, Wen Dehei, who was able to exorcise the disease, was more and more respected by the natives, and was even regarded as a god with divine powers.

The problem was that a few days later, the young adults of the tribe also began to fall ill one after another, but the antibiotic pills that Wen Deji carried with him quickly ran out. So, he had to open a packet of skittles that he had endured for a long time and was reluctant to eat, and gave it to the patients as a placebo...... Zuihou, a large tribe of 20,000 people, actually more than 3,000 people died of illness within four months, most of them young and middle-aged men, which is equivalent to another great injury after the defeat of the war.

The only good thing is that the plague also seems to be holding back the invaders around it.

It is said that there were several powerful tribes from afar, who were eager to send troops to loot the treasure or to enslave all the ruined people of Honshutizgan after hearing that they had obtained many rare treasures (crystal skulls).

But the problem is that then came the bad news of the outbreak of the plague among the people of Hunghyutizgan, so they also dismissed the idea of coming and grabbing a handful - with the backward medical conditions of the primitive society, they recklessly broke into the plague area with a large number of people...... Isn't this looking for death?

After the plague subsided, the old chieftain Avaha managed to regain his strength, and gradually searched for and collected those who had been scattered in the war, and it took a full year for the population to slowly recover to about 20,000 again.

The greatest political impact of this catastrophe was that several of the sons of the Avaha chieftain died of the plague, and the rest of the chief's brothers and nephews died in the war against the Aztecs. In the end, Wen Desi, the son-in-law of a different time and space, actually ascended to the sky in one step and became the intended heir of this 20,000-strong tribe, or small country......

Note: Pocahontas, a 1995 Disney animated film from the United States, reflects the feud between early British pioneers and Native Americans in the early days of colonization of the North American continent. The main content of the movie is the British army captain John? The romance of Smith and the Indian princess Pucaconti, and the story of these kind-hearted exotic lovers working together to avoid war between the indigenous Indians and the English settlers......

Of course, as a result of this aiqing, the newcomers of the British took the opportunity to paralyze the aborigines, seized the time to build fortresses, gained a foothold in North America, and a few years later turned around and used force, completely expelling all the Indians in the vicinity and robbing them of all their land.
