Chapter 95: Indecision
After ten hours of tracing the river, Yan Zheng saw the sea.
To be true of what he had guessed, the river also went straight into the sea.
That's why some people relied on the river to explore all the way, and finally bumped into the headhunters!
And in history, there should be many such people, which is why the headhunters will be destroyed.
The foreign exchange that could have been had a long time ago is likely to end due to a few single kills.
Yan Zheng looked at this sea area and felt that the hydrological conditions were much better than those of the Yan'an River.
The scout platoon also began to spread out to explore the surrounding situation, judging from the surrounding vegetation, there is no seawater inflow in this place, but there are more tidal flats on the coast.
Fortunately, there is no large-scale man-made transformation, and there is no imaginary European-style bastion.
However, Yan Zheng did not dare to take it lightly, he walked along the edge of the tidal flat, and was immediately attracted by a wooden plank by the sea.
He immediately asked people to retrieve it, and by the way, he also asked people to start looking for anything suspicious on the beach.
When he got the plank, he let out a long sigh, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
This plank completely declares that he is in a civilized era at this time! Another possibility, though slim, disappeared in an instant.
It's like a quantum collapse, when one quantum is observed, the other quantum is doomed.
It is clear that this board is a sailboat's plank, and it is clear from the gluing treatment on its top, as well as the number of layers of paint, that this is not an ordinary workmanship.
The appearance of planks here proves that ships still come and go very frequently, which is why the planks of shipwrecked ships are thrown ashore.
Soon, the soldiers brought in some items that had washed up on the shore, and Yan Zheng asked them all to collect and pile them up in the spirit of waste utilization.
It's like a wooden plank, collected and used as firewood, and when it's burned, you can get the nails inside.
One or two pieces of sail can be used to make canvas shoes.
There were also some fishing nets that rushed up, but there was nothing good as expected.
Yan Zheng guessed that the island should be close to a certain warm current, so many fishing boats would come here to fish.
And judging from the handicrafts picked up, it has a strong oriental character, so the island at your foot may be an island near Wanli Stone Pond.
Because there is a headhunting culture, which makes people think of the Austronesian language family, and there are ancient Chinese fishermen's work, it is easy to think of some news.
For example, in the face of certain disputes in the South China Sea, our experts will definitely throw out the Wanli Stone Pond and tell everyone that our fishermen, who have been fishing in the vicinity since the Song Dynasty, were the first people to discover and develop these islands.
It's just that Yan Zheng doesn't know if the current China is the Song Dynasty. The Austronesian language family with headhunter culture is the most widely distributed in Luzon Islands, Indonesia, and Malay Archipelago.
"I just hope it's not the era of Western colonization!" Yan Zheng sighed silently.
If this is the era of the Great Colony, then he may really be opened like a can by a certain Western expedition.
Riki went out with the scout for an hour and then ran back, saying that he had spotted a tribe not far away.
Yan Zheng didn't say a word, and leaned over with the army.
To his surprise, there was a clear path here, which was clearly left over from a long life.
After walking for a while, Yan Zheng saw a mountain tip in the distance.
After looking at it again, I found that there was actually a group of mountains in the distance, and the closer I got to it, the more I found that this group of mountains was extending longitudinally, and it was in the opposite direction to the horizontal mountain range that Yan Zheng had seen!
What does this amount to? This is equivalent to this mountain, which is similar to a pass.
Two large mountain ranges, like an arm, hold the flat land in the middle.
Yan Zheng was a little excited, this is simply a heaven-sent treasure island! If the plains are large, this place is really perfect!
Just as he was about to sigh and give the mountains a name, the sharp-eyed Limu pointed to the distance and exclaimed, "That's someone!" ”
"Alert!" Lu Wan immediately shouted.
Yan Zheng was also stunned, and quickly shrank back.
The soldiers protected Yan Zheng in the middle, and a group of soldiers explored directly along the road.
Eventually, not far from the sea, they found a tribal village.
Yan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief slightly, this tribe's village is not big!
The people in this tribe had already discovered them, and the strange thing was that they didn't panic after seeing them, and a few people ran out happily.
Lu Wan and the others all put on a fighting posture, but they found that these young men did not bring weapons, and they all ran out with clay pots and some food.
After running closer, these people stopped suddenly, and then in a panic they threw down what they were holding and ran.
Yan Zheng and the others looked confused, but thinking of those people just now, they didn't have tattoos on their faces, he couldn't help but be stunned and said, "This tribe actually doesn't make totems on their faces?" ”
Lu Wan's face changed and said, "They're calling people!" ”
Yan Zheng looked at the soldiers in front of him and felt that no matter how much he shook people, this tribe would not be able to defeat this strong army.
"Send men and give them some salt and furs and an iron axe...... Give it a handful too! ”
Lu Wan was stunned and said, "Why do you give the iron axe?" ”
"It's okay, they're so far away from our tribe, and it's okay to have an iron axe."
A soldier stepped forward with these things, put them down, and retreated.
When the people of that tribe saw this, they also sent people out to take the things, and put some things there.
Yan Zheng looked for someone to get it and found that it was some dried fish and wild fruits.
He smiled, it seems that this tribe can communicate.
Zhang Sanfeng suddenly said on the side: "Chief, these people's boats are the same boats I met on the river before!" ”
Yan Zheng looked in the direction of Zhang Sanfeng's finger and found a beautifully decorated boat that was placed at the door of this tribe.
He nodded violently and said, "This tribe, relying on the sea to eat the sea, should live by fishing!" ”
This is the first time Yan Zheng has seen a non-hunting tribe, and judging from the fact that they don't have tattoos on their faces, it's very likely that these people don't hunt heads!
So he told the soldiers to put away their weapons and sent a few men forward.
The people of this tribe also sent a few people over.
Both sides looked at each other curiously for a while, and then took out a lot of dried fish from the opposite side and put them on the ground.
Yan Zheng looked at it from a distance and said, "Take the copper coin and the long knife, go and ask the people of this tribe if they have seen this thing!" ”
Zhang Sanfeng nodded in agreement, took some copper coins and a long knife and walked over.
After seeing the long knife on the other side, he seemed to be agitated and shouted.
But after a while, they brought out a bunch of miscellaneous things from the tribe.
After Yan Zheng watched for a while, he chose to take the guards over to take a look.
With just one glance, there was a hint of surprise on his face, this tribe actually had an iron pot!
"Chief, this person said that these things of theirs were obtained by people from overseas, but they don't like people with such long knives!"
