212. I made a small contribution

Orland entered Carlisle at the end of June.

Half of this place was given to Nanding, and the rest belonged to him.

At the same time, he kept passing paperwork with the leader of Galloway.

The other party used a branch of Old English, which Oran could understand, but could not write, and had to bring a monk to translate.

As the kingdom of God, Orlan brought people to visit, and the leaders of the country also thought about how to receive them?

They raised Oran to "Dunbarton", which was the largest town in the country.

to show their respect.

But Olan was reluctant to go deep into the heart of the stranger in this way, and finally changed the meeting place to the middle of the kingdom, close to the place where Nanding was now at war with the Scots.

When Orlan stepped out of Carlishire and into new land, his first impression was that there were so many mountains.

Mountains divide the terrain and hills and rivers are scattered among them.

Oran walks along the "Creed" to the south.

This is the transportation hub of the kingdom, and the most prosperous towns are around the river, and the rest of the city is largely uninhabited.

Agriculture is dominated by wheat, legumes.

Almost all of the fields that Oran saw suitable for cultivation were planted with seedlings.

Further inside, there was a bit of copper and iron, but Orlan couldn't dig deeper.

The sparse population makes the forests lush and provides a large amount of prey, and fur is one of the important materials for export.

Surrounded by water on three sides, the smell of fishing is very pungent when passing through the market.

Oran also saw a local specialty, bark paper.

In a place where the illiteracy rate is 90%, the priests who can read the written language, because of the parchment, mostly record history and ancient myths by word of mouth, and occasionally use bark paper.

But the paper was destroyed in a few years, and there were errors and omissions in the re-copying.

False and omitted historical past will give rise to new interpretive myths.

Some people have "Raven Mother" hanging on the outside of their houses, but neighbors accuse them of not being traditional gods.

There were also priests who copied and spelled God with the ancient gods of Ansar, and passed them down by word of mouth.

Others hung the cross at the head of the bed and the god Odin at the foot of the bed.

The sacrificial temple is also very special, divided into two entrances, on the left is God, and on the right is Thor, the god of thunder, where Viking Germanic mythology arrives, producing new variants and connecting with God.

It's just a hundred flowers.

Oran on horseback, this area of natural beauty is good, but it also represents backwardness and barbarism.

The leaders who came to receive them along the road smelled of urine on their bodies, and the leather Oran felt that if they were soaked in the water, they could dye the water black.

As soon as the teeth are opened, they are all rotten.

The guild merchants behind him had never been here, and most of them were on the border of Carlisle, transporting wool cloth to exchange some ceramic iron pieces or cattle and horses.

From Orlan to his subordinates, they all looked down on this group of savages.

"Your Excellency, I wish you well." From time to time, a crowd of people would come over and make their pilgrimage to Oran.

Well-being was their usual greeting, and Orlan replied.

On the first day of Oran's entry into the realm, he saw seven chieftains, who spoke of the king's name without hesitation.

The Gallowean aristocracy, without a fixed king, was pushed together by the leaders, competing for power, and destabilizing the political situation.

As a result, they simply cannot afford to move south or north.

Even because there are various scattered islands in the land, some tribes with less than 100 people, because of their proximity to Ireland and Scotland, also claim to them.

This time, it was so easy to contact Orlan and agree to enter the country, mainly because the Irish Vikings had sealed off their open seas, and the Scots had begun to threaten the vicinity of Dunbaton again, and it would be a good deal to have friendly exchanges with the southern powers.

Orlan brought a caravan of traders, loaded with ten carts of gifts.

Every time a chief comes, he will reward a little, showing the bearing of the state.

But the chiefs seemed to be endless.

Where tens of thousands of people, dozens of chiefs!

After walking for two and a half days, and half a day to reach the target, at night, he camped by the river, but it was also easy to find, and in the middle of the night, Orlan was woken up outdoors.

Those who came just now were the leaders of the Anglo-Saxon faith.

This time he came to believe in God.

Oran blessed them with a cross liturgy and then took out the "paper".

Touching this soft thing, several people were very excited.

This kind of item is expensive and in demand, and even if it is not used, it can be exchanged for supplies elsewhere.

When people have food needs for survival, they will have spiritual needs.

Why is it that the people of Blitun, who are small in size and fierce in their people, are slowly infiltrated by God?

Because the glass, paintings, utensils, cloth, metalware, and farming tools that came from the Catholic world crushed them in all aspects, and even the smell of women was not so heavy!

Orlan was rewarded with a few more silver and bronze coins.

He was wearing a half-purple silk robe, wearing a blue treasure ring, and the group of barrel helmet riders beside him, even in the dark moonlight, were full of majesty.

Strength and treasure are on display, worthy of the respect of the leaders.

They even wanted to give their daughter to Oran as a welcome gift.

Oran glanced at the Briton women,

It's very abstract, it's very good,

Let the "Mengzhirad" who followed the visit deal with it.

Just after the dismissal, Orlan wanted to sleep for a while, and the two of them came.

One of them saw his companion as a servant, and the other was wearing a robe made of bearskin.

His face was young, but he looked a few years more mature because of his untrimmed beard.

The thick calves and bulging chest look mighty.

He and his servants came with torches, which made it easier to see, with precious stones, grayish-yellow shells, and small leather goods around their necks.

As soon as Orlan entered the tent, he came to visit the people again, which annoyed him a little.

I heard the local guide who led the way say that it was a very small one, and that the land was not even connected to the main island, but a small island further north, with a population of less than 50.

He waved his hand for Ladd to dispose of it.

"My lord, after we knew the news, we crossed the mountains and seas, and only drank water for three days and three nights, and came all the way here."

If he wanted to ask for a reward when he heard it, Ladd asked him to bring out two stacks of wool.

Two strong men, it's worth this.

But the chieftain was clearly unwilling, and yelled loudly, saying that he was coming to meet the warriors who had defeated the "Vikings." ”

"O warrior whom even Ragnar fears, Lord of the Great White Eagle......"

Oran can't hear anyone say that about himself...... What an eye!

So he came out again.

This leader is a mixed descendant of the Anza and Celts.

Long-term exposure to the island sun, bronzed skin, while hair and beard are dark.

After years of labor, the muscles of the body protrude very obviously.

"It's hard work, these scars and wrinkles on your face are a testament to the hunger and fatigue you've suffered all the way."

Orlan snapped his fingers, and some more gifts, as well as warm food and drinks.

Usually he wants to give it back, but this person is empty-handed, and Orlan can see it, and he doesn't want him to be embarrassed, so he lets him take care of himself.

But this is not the purpose of this man's hard work, he is empty-handed because the tribe is really poor.

Even if it's hard to scrape, it's just a few pieces of silverware, and it's not as good as others.

When he heard that the lord in front of him was very arrogant, he shouted to Oran, "Supreme One. ”

The Romans, who came to England hundreds of years ago, dealt a dimensionality reduction blow to the local natives.

Those who refuse to accept can only shrink into corners, such as them, or flee into the mountains, such as Scotland.

Later, the powerful foreign nobles were so respectfully called by them.

This phrase meant that to the chief, Oran and his party were as powerful as the Romans who came to England hundreds of years earlier.

"The Supreme?!"

Oran could understand without a translator, because the man was speaking a literal translation of the pure Latin pronunciation of "Caesar."

No Catholic ruler is immune to this kind of sycophancy.

If there is, then one more sentence.

"You come, you see, you conquer!"

The man stooped down and spoke again, and the servants he had brought with him also knelt down.

The eyes of the leader in the distance suddenly focused.

They know who this kid is, after his father died of illness last month, the tribe was removed from the Council of Chiefs, because there were less than thirty people left in their family.

I didn't expect his empty-handed shabby appearance to amuse Oran!

"Hahaha!"

A warrior arrived with hard work, bowing his head and saying that he was the master of Rome.

These words completely satisfy Oran's "modest" heart.

"Benber has made a small contribution to England, and it is not worth mentioning......"

Along the way, the leaders sent cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, and even women and clowns, but they didn't make Orlan so happy.

"Tell me, your name?"

"Bevuk, son of Brawin."

"Reward!"
