"Sounds very good, Grand Chief Opekan, Patriarch Jinyan, what do you think?" Shuilian asked.

Opekan glanced at Jin Yan and then at Water Lotus.

He stood on the far left, Jin Yan on the right, then the water lotus, and Lei Ma on the far right.

Just one glance made his heart mess again.

Jin Yan and Shui Lian are both extremely rare beauties, several people stood close to each other, and the fragrance on the two women's bodies penetrated into their noses, making Opekan almost lose his mind!

When he came over yesterday, he was shocked by Jin Yan's appearance, he had never seen Jin Yan, and he didn't expect that there was such a beauty in the tribe, and he, as the big chief, didn't even know.

If he had known, he would not have been polite, at that time the sun god had not yet come, he said a word, the patriarch of the Tao tribe would definitely be willing to give his daughter Jin Yanzi to him as a wife.

It's a pity!

Seeing the water lotus again today, Opekan is even more ape-hearted, and it is difficult to help himself.

There was a look of obsession on his face, and he couldn't help but be obsessed.

Rayma looked sideways at Opekan and waited for him to speak, but when he saw his pig face, he was immediately furious and snorted heavily.

Opekan woke up to Reima's disgruntled eyes.

He hurriedly said: "I think we can make a peace agreement with the white people, they all have muskets, they are too powerful, they have huge sailing ships at sea, and they have powerful guns in them!"

What's more, they have a powerful kingdom behind them, and even if we win, they can still send people over in a steady stream! ”

"We're going to fight fewer and fewer people, and in the end it's not the white people's opponent, it's not that I, Opekan, am afraid of the white people, but, as you know, after the war with the white people, our tribal alliance has nine fewer tribes! If it weren't for the arrival of the sun god, the Tao tribe would have been gone, and that would be ten! ”

"The cost of war is too great, and it is better to live in peace with the white people, what do you think?"

Reima snorted and looked at Opekan with disdain, "That's because your combat effectiveness is too poor, we Cherokees and whites have also fought for so many years, although we have also killed and injured many clansmen, but the whites are by no means happy!" I don't agree with this agreement! ”

He paused as he spoke: "The other side of the Powhatan River also belongs to the territory of the Powhatan tribe, and your brother, the Grand Chief of Powhatan, has not recognized them as white until his death, if you sign this agreement, hehe." ”

Reima's taunt made Opekan's face blue and white.

If the agreement is signed, it is indeed against the will of the brother, but if it is not signed, how many people will have to die?

There is also the benefit that Recliffe promised in private, and he can't get it, which is not worth it.

"Patriarch Jinyan, what do you say?" Opekan threw the question to Jin Yan beside him.

"What the two chiefs say has a point, we can't beat the white people, but their agreement is not credible."

She changed her words: "But, that was before, now it is different, the white people's Jamestown has the support of the British, and we have the support of the Ming Empire, the most powerful kingdom of God in the world!" We are blessed by the omnipotent gods, and we should tell all our people loudly that we are not afraid! Not afraid of war with whites! ”

Opecan and Reimaa are all in their hearts.

Jin Yan said: "The sun god said that white people are liars, and every word they say is not credible, especially their promises!" I don't approve of this, but the sun is about to rise, and the gods are about to descend, so let the sun god decide! ”

Opekan and Rema nodded.

The voices of the few people were not loud, and Philip could not hear clearly below, but he also knew that several chiefs were deliberating.

But I heard Opekan's voice come out.

"Missionary Philip, the great sun god is coming, let the gods decide this matter!"

After Opekan finished speaking, he didn't pay any more attention to Philip, and after discussing with Jin Yan Leima, he immediately began the ceremony.

There had been many rehearsals last night, and when the order was given, the crowd retreated, revealing a large clearing.

More than 20 wizards took the lead, and more than 2,000 Povatan natives danced the war dance.

Various musical instruments such as leather drums, tree drums, bone flutes, recorders, okari (similar to xun), and rattlers are also sounded along with the sound of the aborigines dancing on the ground.

The scene suddenly became lively.

This primitive war dance is an important part of the ritual of the tribesmen praying to the gods, although their musical instruments are backward, but the magnificent scale and pious attitude also make people moved.

It wasn't the first time Philip had seen the natives dance in war, but he was still a little shocked by the scale, but in his heart he felt that this was a group of uncivilized savages, but he was extremely interested in the arrival of the sun god for a while.

As a veteran preacher, he believed in God and was always looking for miracles of God, often attributing some natural peculiarities to God's omnipotence.

But he didn't believe in the sun god!

Although the sun god called the Yellow Emperor is different from everyone else, without the support of miracles, it is just a false god!

This must be heresy!

The doctrine of the Holy See holds that all the stars in the world move around the earth!

God created human beings and placed them in the center of the earth, around which the sun, the moon, and the stars revolved.

Heresy holds that the sun is the center of the universe and is stationary, the earth is round, and the moon and other stars revolve around the sun.

The Inquisition has handed down its verdict, and heretics have been burned in Campo de' Fiori in Rome!

This so-called sun god Yellow Emperor must also be a heresy who accepts the influence of heliocentrism.

At this point, the geocentric says that it is absolutely right! It is a holy text that the Holy See upholds with all its might!

Copernicus proposed heliocentrism, which shook the teachings of the Holy See and was burned in Campo d'Éwells in 1543.

The famous Italian scholar Bruce, who inherited and carried forward Copernicus' heliocentric theory, was also burned to death in Campo de' Fiori twenty-five years ago (1600).

The same Italian, the famous physicist Galileo, who was also a supporter of Copernicus's heliocentric theory, is suffering from persecution at the moment!

In 1612, he published the "Dialogues on Floating Bodies in Water", which used scientific methods to demonstrate Copernicus's heliocentric theory, which caused a sensation in Europe, and Pope Paul V issued the famous "1616 ban", prohibiting Galileo from dictating, writing, and disseminating heliocentric theory.

Last year, Galileo also went to meet with the Pope, and he met six times in succession, trying to show that heliocentrism can be reconciled with Christian doctrine, saying that "the Bible teaches people how to enter the kingdom of heaven, not how the heavenly bodies work";

And he tried to convince some archbishops with this, but to no avail. Eid al-Pont VIII insisted that the "ban of 1616" remain unchanged;

After...... He was persecuted and judged, lost his sight in his later years, and until his tragic death in 1642, he still wore the label of heretic. It was not until 1882 that the suppression of heliocentrism was lifted, mainly because of scientific progress, which the Holy See had to admit.

Until November 10, 1979, Pope J. Paul II of the Vatican, on behalf of the Holy See, publicly rehabilitated Galileo, believing that the Holy See persecuted him more than 300 years ago and made a serious mistake!

This shows how ignorant Europe was at this time.

Throughout history, in the course of human civilization, who is the representative of ignorance and who is the representative of civilization?
