Chapter 6 The Deception of the Great Celestial Master
Such ten catties of gold, in the hands of those greedy white ghosts, can buy at most forty or fifty weapons.
Therefore, the black bull naturally looks more and more pleasing to the eye of this generous distant "relative". He calculated that with so many steel weapons, his tribe would become stronger and stronger, and then he would be able to defeat the tribe's old enemies, the Hurons, and he would be the greatest hero the tribe had ever seen. The name will be engraved on the totem pole by the tribal wizard, and the fame will be passed on to future generations!
When the black bull almost giggled out loud for a better future. A chubby wizard walked in, his body also covered in dense tattoos, but the man was white and fat, very different from the average Indian.
"I've heard of a distant kindred," said the wizard, "so I'll come and see ......."
The black bull smiled unnaturally and asked the wizard to sit down: "This is the Aziman wizard in our clan, and our tribe is also called the Aziman ......."
If this introduction still doesn't make the status of this wizard clear to the Great Celestial Master, then the Great Celestial Master Wen can really go to a tree and crash to death.
Wen Fei looked at this Aziman wizard and found that this person was not only white and fat, but also had blue eye sockets. looks like a wine-colored person, not like a master.
Wizard Aziman sat down like a mountain of meat, and took a sip of the wine bowl in comfort. Immediately a woman filled him with fine wine.
"Did I hear you're from across the ocean?" asked the Wizard of Aziman with a smile on his face, "And aren't you from the same place as those white people?"
Wen Fei was calm in his heart, and just smiled: "Yes." I am from the Ming Dynasty. It was an envoy sent by His Majesty the Emperor......"
"But I don't see a flame in you...... With all due respect, the flames on your body are very weak, so weak that you might choke to death if you eat!"
Wizard Aziman said with a smile on his face. But the content in it made Wen Fei's heart feel terrified, and he actually gave birth to an unfathomable and profound feeling.
"I saw the flames of the white men, like a burning wood, that set the whole mountain on fire. That's so powerful it's unstoppable. And you? I saw you alone, and the flame was so faint. It makes me curious......"
Master Wen smiled bitterly. It was he who spoke to others in such an unfathomable tone. But now it's the other way around, it's someone else who says it to himself in such a tone.
Isn't the so-called flame just luck? It seems that this guy is really a bit of a doorway. It's not the sake bag rice bag that you see at first glance.
"My Ming Dynasty is the number one country in the world!" Wen Fei said slowly, "Stronger than all the white ghosts combined, my emperor sent a fleet to the sea, just to find the legendary people who crossed the sea." Didn't send too many people......"
"Really?" the black bull was a little skeptical.
Wen Fei smiled: "If you don't believe it, you can just ask those white ghosts." Ask them about the powerful countries of the East. ”
Aziman actually nodded: "I know the way." And I also know that those white people originally wanted to find a route to the east, and accidentally discovered our continent. Originally, they thought they were in India in the East, so they called us Indians......"
Wen Fei glanced at this wizard in surprise, he was really unseemly. This guy looks like a wine bag and rice bag, but he has wisdom and insight beyond his appearance.
Even Wen Fei didn't expect that this guy would be able to inquire about so many things. It is very different from other ignorant people who only have one acre and three points of land in front of them.
For example, Black Bull. Once you've bought a weapon, you just want to defeat your rival tribe. And this Aziman wizard's vision has gone beyond here. Start looking further afield.
Even Great Heavenly Master Wen couldn't help but be interested in this wizard, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that in such a small place, there would be a talent like you." It's good, it seems that as soon as the crisis comes, many people will be born with luck and try to save the situation......"
Aziman looked at Wen Da Heavenly Master suspiciously, and seemed to understand Wen Fei's words. But I heard Wen Fei laugh and said: "Those white ghost wolves are ambitious. Don't see that they just want your gold and fur right now, but soon their interest will turn to the land where you live...... At some point, your crisis will truly come!"
Aziman was shocked and said, "It's impossible, the white people are so far away from us." They can't ......."
"Not now, but there will only be more and more whites in the future. You can think about how many white ghosts came here a few decades ago, and how many are there now? And how many will be in a few decades, a hundred years from now? This is an inevitable contradiction, sooner or later, you will be enemies of life and death!"
"You're right, but that may be hundreds of years away!" said Aziman, his expression disapproving.
The wiser you are, the less likely you are to notice anything other than the present. They will deeply understand that worrying about the future is completely unfounded, because you can't grasp it at all, and all you can grasp is the present.
But the black bull roared: "I have long known that those white ghosts are unreliable, and I will kill them all." Peel off all the skins and hang them on the branches!"
"Tell me the story of your Daming? You know, I like to listen to stories the most. Aziman said.
Wen Fei was slightly relieved when he heard this. No matter what this guy came to see him for, at this time, he should have been moved by what he said.
Maybe he's just a minor role that doesn't matter in his eyes, but as long as he's interested.
As long as he can delay the time, wait for his great heavenly master's strength to recover. Who are you afraid of?
"Actually, I, Daming, are the same as you, and we also worship our ancestors. "Naturally, Master Wen knew how to speak in order to arouse their sense of identity, and at the same time to put an eye medicine between the natives and the white ghosts.
"Unlike the white ghosts, they are not allowed to worship their ancestors, nor are they allowed to worship other gods. They worship only one god and think that everything except this one god is evil and the devil. ”
Hearing this, the fat wizard couldn't sit still. Underneath the ass writhed uneasily.
Maybe Aziman saw that the white ghosts were powerful and wanted to compromise with them, and he was not called a white ghost like Black Bull, but a white man.
But Wen Fei's simple words have completely overturned his naïve ideas.
The power of the Aziman wizard comes from the ancient totems of the tribe, and it is the power of the ancestral spirits. It is impossible to be compatible with the monotheistic religion of the white ghosts.
Perhaps these natives did not have a sense of nationality other than their own tribe, and would not consider the Indians of other tribes as their own. However, the conflict of faith and worship made them have no basis for cooperation with those colonists......
"In our Daming, those white ghosts also sent missionaries. They sent out the wisest of the wisest men, hoping to blend in with the royal teachers of our Ming dynasty. But they announced that they were not allowed to worship their ancestors, which angered most of us in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore he was forbidden to proselytize......"
Wen Fei didn't forget to carry private goods, and by the way, he gave Aziman a science popularization about how the Indians in South America were slaughtered by these white ghosts.
By the way, it was announced: "These white ghosts carry terrible devils with them, and wherever they go, they will spread the plague." Many of the tribes they came into contact with would get sick, and all of them would die of the disease. This is not my nonsense, you can go and inquire yourself......"
"Huh?" As soon as he heard Wen Fei's words, he didn't say that he was the impulsive guy of the black bull. Even Aziman changed color: "Some time ago, all the people of the Laborious tribe died......"
Wen Fei laughed secretly and talked about the kung fu of fooling people. He, the guy who developed by pretending to be a ghost, is not bad at all.
Even if it fools people, it is also a half-truth. Even nine points are true, and only one is false.
According to later American scholars, the local population declined by 95 percent in the century following the arrival of colonists in the Americas.
Among them, the Indian population of the Mayan civilization in Central America decreased from about 25 million to 1.5 million, the Indian population of the Inca civilization decreased from about 9 million to 600,000, and the Indian population in the United States today decreased from 5 million to 60,000.
And this is only a relatively conservative estimate! The Indians of the New World had been isolated from the humans of the Old World for tens of thousands of years, lacked immunity to smallpox, measles, diphtheria, typhoid, mumps, influenza, and other diseases, and lacked the knowledge of epidemic prevention, and soon fell in droves. Much more than slaughtered by the whites!
Therefore, it is not difficult to find out a few pieces of evidence! Without Wen Fei bothering at all, it is easy for them to find out by themselves.
At this moment, even Azima's face became cloudy.
When Wen Fei was in a happy mood and planted the nails directly and smoothly among the natives and white ghosts, he pushed the cart, collected the deposit, and left the tribe. This time, I don't dare to find a random place to go offline, oh, it's crossed.
Instead, they went all the way into the depths of the woods, and then traveled back to the world of the world.
His harvest this time was even bigger than the last time, dozens of pelts, and a few small pieces of golden sand the size of a fingernail. Other semi-precious stones such as obsidian were accumulated.
These must be disposed of by the Great Master of Wen. I didn't know the Taoist temple yet, so I went to the import and export company first.
This is the county's import and export company, a store set up in the town. It is mainly to purchase all kinds of mountain goods and export them to foreign countries to exchange for foreign exchange.
In this era, foreign exchange is still very scarce. To develop the economy, there is a large amount of technical equipment to be introduced. These all rely on foreign exchange, so the units that can earn foreign exchange through exports are relatively popular. (To be continued......)
