Chapter 764: Festival
This sentence was taught to him by the Indian goods store in the small town of Winthrop. Although Jiang Hai didn't know whether it was right or not, at this time, he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse. Watching Jiang Hai spoke to the people in front of them seriously.
"Kananzhe is Kanazhe, right? Do you know the Iroquois people from the Kanazhe tribe?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, these Indians looked at each other, and then they walked away, and one person walked out of the crowd. A girl who looks young comes.
This girl has skin similar to that of a yellow race, of course, much darker. She has long black hair hanging down her head. She is still very good-looking. She looks like she is only fourteen or five years old. There was some baby fat, a rattan was tied to his head, and a feather stood straight on it. He was wearing an animal skin top, a very short one, with his navel exposed, which also covered his upper body.
The lower body is wearing a skirt made of animal skin, and the feet are wearing a pair of hiking boots imported from the outside world.
"Uh, yes, I'm from Winthrop. My name is Jiang Hai. Our town has a good relationship with the Iroquois. They also have an Indian store there that we cooperate with." Looking at the person in front of him The girl asked herself in English, and Jiang Hai immediately explained.
"Oh, then, you and those outsiders are not the same group." Looking at Jiang Hai in front of her, the girl said doubtfully.
"Uh, what kind of outsider?" After hearing her words, Jiang Hai looked at her with some doubts. He didn't know about outsiders.
"It seems that he really doesn't know about outsiders." After hearing what Jiang Hai said and looking at Jiang Hai's eyes, the girl was sure that Jiang Hai really didn't know about outsiders. In fact, she just said that just to explode. Jiang Hai, if Jiang Hai denies immediately or hesitates, it proves that there is something wrong with Jiang Hai. But now Jiang Hai's reaction proves that he may really not know, so she said to a strong man next to her, using The words were in their own language. Jiang Hai could not understand these words, but he knew that he should be asking this strong man.
At the same time, Jiang Hai was also looking at this strong man. It seemed that he was the leader of these people. He was almost 1.90 meters tall. Such a height was not common among Indians. He was extremely strong, with a red upper body and a Covered with scars and strong muscles, he knew at first glance that he was not easy to mess with. When Jiang Hai looked at him, he also looked at Jiang Hai.
"We have no intention of causing conflict with outsiders, but we are conducting our festival. If you are really not the outsiders who come to cause trouble, then we will send someone to contact the Iroquois and ask them to prove your identity. Then you can leave." The Indians were almost not exterminated by the Americans. It is impossible not to hate the Americans.
But in fact, what should I say now? They feel a little bit subdued, because if the Americans really want to, then they can really exterminate all the Indians, but the Americans want to show their humanitarian spirit.
Start to protect the Indians, protect their living areas, although there are not many left, and protect their civilization and culture.
It is precisely because of this show-like behavior that the forests where these Indians hide are protected.
The Indians are really afraid, really afraid that the Americans will destroy them, so now, except for a few tribes that still hate the Americans, most of the troops are saying "Don't mess with me." , I won’t mess with your principle either.
The tribe Jiang Hai encountered at this time was such a neutral tribe. If Jiang Hai did not know the Iroquois, these people might have captured Jiang Hai and then notified the U.S. government to come and collect them, but Jiang Hai If you know the Iroquois well enough, you can ask the Iroquois to come over and take a look. This is the principle of acquaintance, and it will be easier to do things wherever you go.
After the girl translated the man's words, Jiang Hai nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Then should I wait here, or what?" Jiang Hai had no intention of being enemies with these people, and besides, he had nothing urgent to do, and he had nothing to stomach when he arrived, so he opened the car door and jumped out first, indicating that he had nothing to do. After threatening, he asked the girl.
"You can drive your steel monster to our tribe, where the Iroquois are waiting." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl translated to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man thought for a while, Then he followed Jiang Hai and said.
Hearing the girl's translation, Jiang Hai breathed a sigh of relief, then got into the car again and started the engine.
Although these Indians live in the Appalachian Mountains, after all, in the eastern United States, it is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of land is precious.
Although they are not on good terms with the US government, they cannot be self-sufficient just relying on the forest.
They also need to change medicines, daily necessities, etc. regularly, just like the Iroquois at the beginning.
They will send some people with their own things to carry out effects in places they believe in, so they have seen cars and other things, and they will not make a fuss just because Jiang Hai's car started, but they I am quite interested in Jiang Hai's car.
Jiang Hai also slowly followed these people and drove into the forest. After driving for about half an hour, in the distance near an exposed mountain corner, Jiang Hai saw a tree made of wood and stones. In the village, almost three hundred people are gathering in the middle of the village.
There are more than 300 people, which is quite a large tribe for an Indian tribe.
As Jiang Hai's car drove over, many people came out of the tribe, including men, women, old and young. The children looked at Jiang Hai's car with great interest. Jiang Hai At this time, he was also looking at this tribe.
This tribe was slightly better than the African tribes he had seen on TV before, but only slightly better.
After all, they are still living in their own culture. There are not too many modern influences, but they are not too few either.
For example, here, clothes and other items, except for national costumes, are all brought from modern times. Bedsheets, quilts, paper, pens, toilet paper, etc., are all brought from civilized society.
But unlike civilized society, there is no electricity here, so naturally there are no fans, TVs, washing machines, mobile phones, computers and the like.
As Jiang Hai's car stopped in an open space in front of the tribe, Jiang Hai also got out of the car. Of course, he still had a lot of food in his hand that he had prepared but had not finished, and he distributed it casually. Tribal children.
After these children took Jiang Hai's food, they were not in a hurry to eat. Instead, they looked at Jiang Hai and the car over there curiously.
Young people have gone out to change things, so they know what a car is, but these little friends have not, so they are still curious.
"Hello, guest from afar." Just as Jiang Hai shared the food with the children and walked into the tribe, an old man came out surrounded by others, spoke a slightly stiff English, and greeted Jiang Hai. Hai said.
"This is our patriarch." The girl who had been following Jiang Hai introduced him to Jiang Hai.
"Hello!" After hearing the old man's words, Jiang Hailiao immediately became serious and nodded to him solemnly.
"Guest, can you explain the purpose of your coming here?" Looking at Jiang Hai, the old man looked at him and asked with a chuckle.
"Well, I'm from China. In our China, there is a saying that practicing Taoism means being close to nature, so I came here to cultivate myself. I have been in this forest for fifteen days and I am just about to return today." Listen. Jiang Hai said the old man's words seriously.
In fact, he was just talking nonsense, but there had to be a reason. It was better to give a reason than to be embarrassed here.
"China, the mysterious East. I heard that you know people from the Kananza tribe." Hearing Jiang Hai's explanation, it was up to him whether he believed it or not. Jiang Hai estimated that he would not believe it, but he still had to say what needed to be said. Then the old man changed his tone and asked Jiang Hai.
"Yes, I am from Winthrop. Our town has a cooperation with the Iroquois. They opened a small store in my place. If it is the person in charge there, he should know me. "Jiang Hai thought for a while and explained to this person. At the same time, he said seriously that he must be the person in charge of the other person's affairs. Jiang Hai can't guarantee that those ordinary people will know him.
"Okay, I have sent someone to inform the people of the Kananza tribe, but before that, I would like you to take a rest in the tribe. We are worshiping the sky. You can see how the people outside you feel about these things. He should be quite interested." Seeing that what Jiang Hai said didn't sound like a lie, the old man didn't dare to believe it entirely, but said to Jiang Hai with a smile.
"It should be so." Jiang Hai also knew that he was not prepared to conflict with these people, so he let himself take a rest here. Then take a rest. After talking to the patriarch, Jiang Hai walked into the Indian Among the tribes.
Then Jiang Hai followed the people who brought him in and walked to the square in the distance.
After finding an open space to sit down, Jiang Hai asked the little girl next to him who could speak English.
"What happened today? Before you met me, were you arresting someone?" Looking at the girl in front of him, Jiang Hai asked with some doubts. Now that he is here, he still feels a little cloudy and foggy, completely Do not know what's going on.
"It's like this. Today is our heaven-sacrifice activity. A few days ago, a group of people came over and said they were some kind of enthusiasts. They wanted to take pictures of our heaven-sacrifice. Our clan leader agreed at the time, but after During the morning sacrifice to heaven, when the sacrifices were being offered, these people suddenly rose up, injured the warriors of our tribe, and also took away the sacrifices." Listening to the girl's words, Jiang Hai thought about it in his mind A movie I watched back then, by Jackie Chan, seemed to be called "Eagle Project". At the beginning, he went to steal a tribe's gems.
In the end, stealing gems was okay, but drinking holy water was a disaster. And the sacrifices of this tribe were very valuable.
"Your tribe's sacrifices are very valuable." Feeling a little confused, Jiang Hai couldn't help but ask her.
"Valuable" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl couldn't help but feel a little confused. They lived here and had no concept of money.
"Oh, it can be exchanged for a lot of things." After hearing what the girl said, Jiang Hai also explained to her.
"You can't exchange for anything, you will know it yourself." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl shook her head and said.
Then he pointed into the distance, because the festival was interrupted just now, and now it has to start again.
The clan leader who had just spoken to Jiang Hai appeared on the high platform in front. After he said a lot of words that Jiang Hai couldn't understand, a few strong clansmen brought several sacrifices. After the products came out, Jiang Hai took a look and found that these sacrifices were really
A cow, a sheep, and a dog. The cow is a very common Angus breed, but because the grooming is not too detailed, although it is strong, the hair on its body is a little black and not very shiny. After all, Jiang Hai has been raising cows for two years, and this cow is not valuable.
The same goes for that sheep. It's just the most common Boer goat. The last dog is so easy to grab. I don't know what kind of dog it is. Anyway, it doesn't look good, but it's not too small. It should be a meat dog. Bar.
"What did they steal?" Looking at these three things, they didn't look like they were valuable. Jiang Hai was a little confused.
"They took the dog away." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl said seriously.
"What the hell is a dog?" But after hearing the girl's words, Jiang Hai was also confused. What kind of way was he to snatch the dog away?
Is it possible that there are dog fans in the United States? He laughed at himself. Jiang Hai looked at the dog again. He was very sure that it was not a precious dog breed.
What's so good about this? It seems that dog fans all over the world are very weird.
At this moment, the patriarch over there finished his prayer. As his words fell, everyone in the tribe stood up and roared. Jiang Hai looked at it and then stood up. , there was a cry without a sound.
At this moment, several strong men carrying the sacrifices over there also moved, knocked down the three animals, and then began to bleed.
As soon as the knife went in, the blood spurted out. It looked quite shocking, but for Jiang Hai, who was used to seeing cattle and sheep slaughtered, such bloody scenes were not that good. Those people couldn't stand this scene, so they went and rescued the dog.
Thinking of this, he shook his head. In this world, the main thing is to pay attention to the law of the jungle, the weak eat the strong, it's that simple.
People's kindness is also placed on these animals. At least Jiang Hai raises dogs, but he does not object to eating dog meat. To be continued.
