Chapter 640 The Second Kingdom Exploration, Mother Goddess’ Blessing, Treasure Ship Coming From the East!

The setting sun sets, imprinting the color on the tall temple. The moon rises high, casting shadows on the gorgeous palace. Accompanied by Mayan warriors, the group climbed onto the sandy river bank, passed through the increasingly empty market, and walked through streets full of shacks. As the number of stone houses gradually increased, a wide square two-story palace appeared in front of everyone.

The main priest Thomas was very interested and observed the street scene along the way. Although Honghu Town is not big, it has many brick and stone houses. Most of the brick houses are located in the inner circle where nobles and warriors gather. The ratio is greater than that of the ancient Feathered Serpent City of the Totonak people, and many of them are still two-story. It is obvious that the Mayans' brick-making and construction technology was quite advanced, and the people's obedience was very high, and their wealth was concentrated in the upper class.

Just on this section of the road, you can also see a small temple under construction. A black wolf god with a red tongue is carved on the surface of the temple. The Wolf God stepped on white silver sand under his feet, held a huge gem in his hand, and wore a golden crown on his head.

"Huh? This is, this is!."

Priest Thomas paused and suddenly thought of something. He was stunned, and the expression on his face immediately became unbearable.

"Haha! Priest from the Tiger Tribe, you guessed it right!"

The warrior leader Chaha smiled, patted his chest hard, and pointed towards the small temple.

"This is the god from your tiger tribe! The god of wealth who brings gems and bronzes, Shuluo!"

"Shuluo, the god of wealth? This is not the blind one."

The old militiaman Chihuaco's eyes widened and he didn't know what to say.

"Haha! The God of Wealth on the plateau is really effective! He sent trading standard gems to our merchant Mayan tribes, making trade more prosperous. And as soon as we built the temple, there were big ships full of wealth, coming from the west Come! Come, my friendly friend, please come with me, the revered Moonwater Goddess is waiting in the palace!"

"A ship full of wealth?"

Hearing this, Chihuaco's eyes moved. He was about to ask more questions when he saw the warrior leader Chaha opening the cloth door of the palace, making an invitation gesture, and leading everyone in.

The masonry palace is divided into two floors, the ground floor is wide and the upper floor is slightly smaller. At this moment, dozens of kingdom warriors and sailors, accompanied by hundreds of Mayan warriors, were sitting cross-legged on the ground floor of the palace, eating and drinking. Many people actually held Mayan girls in their arms.

"Damn it! These heartless turkeys!"

Chihuaco gritted his teeth and swept the people present fiercely. Seeing the captain and priest of the fleet coming in, dozens of warriors and sailors were startled and hurriedly stood up from their seats, looking embarrassed. A kingdom warrior quickly pushed away the woman in his arms and explained hurriedly.

"Captain, they forced us to come here."

"Let's talk about it when we get back!"

With a cold expression on his face, Chihuaco looked at the Mayan warrior standing in the palace and gave another order.

"You guys keep eating!"

While they were talking, several people climbed up the stone steps and arrived at the second floor of the palace. The furnishings on this floor are much more gorgeous, with murals of gods on the four walls, feathers of various colors hanging down, and a sculpture of the Moon Goddess inlaid with gems.

The Moon Goddess holds a green vial in her tiger claws. Looking carefully, the vial turned out to be dozens of emeralds from the Lake Kingdom, glued together with an unknown adhesive!

"The great Mother Goddess of the Moon protects this land! If we worship with piety and please Him, the floods will not fall, and wealth will come with the water!"

At this moment, a Mayan divine descendant wearing a Chinese robe, a feather crown, and a staff was sitting on a low red seat of volcanic rock, looking at everyone seriously. He has a slender divine head, strange eyes like a fighting cock, long hair coiled like a snake, and mysterious blue and yellow patterns on his face.

Ti Carlo stood at the end and raised his eyebrows. This is a real Mayan noble, in line with the oldest Mayan aesthetics.

The forehead was long and flat. It was artificially cut out with wooden boards when the head was not yet shaped when he was born. The eyes of a fighting cock are the result of watching the small ball hanging back and forth in front of the eyes all day long when they were babies. The long hair is coiled up like a rope, with feathers stuck in it, just like the snake god's tail. As for the blue pattern, it symbolizes the sky that communicates with the divine world, while the yellow pattern is the color of corn, praying for a good harvest from the corn god.

If you want to have such a face that resembles a god, you have to start cultivating it from a very young age. The pain and suffering involved are beyond everyone's imagination. But such a unique appearance is also the price necessary to rule the common people! If the Mayan nobles did not have a demeanor close to the gods, how could they convince the warriors and people who believed in the gods? It is impossible for ordinary Mayan people from humble origins to have the ability to summon warriors and people. Because he couldn't pass just the face of the gods!

Therefore, in thousands of years of Mayan epics, the protagonists are always the heroic gods and priests, and at most outstanding noble warriors. And millions of ordinary people are really just ants who are always busy, driven, enslaved, and sacrificed by the nobles. This kind of stability of the noble and humble classes is difficult to achieve by the martial Nahua tribes on the plateau.

"The true Mayan nobleman's divinity is not only on his face, but also in his mouth."

Tikalo pondered in his heart and stared at the sitting Mayan god descendant. Soon, the Maya god descendant raised his staff and welcomed him with a smile.

"Friends from the Tiger Tribe! I am a descendant of the Moon Goddess, and I rule the city and the people. Crocodile King Ayin, welcome your arrival, and also welcome the wealth you bring!"

Crocodile King Ayin spoke with a smile, startling Chihuako who was two steps away. The old militiaman gasped and looked at the teeth in the opponent's mouth. They were trimmed and slightly curved, and the tips were sharpened with a file, just like snake teeth! And in the gaps of the "snake teeth", there are small blue gems inlaid. When you open the mouth, the precious light will shine.

As for the red tongue, the center was penetrated by a stone thorn, and then hung with a jade nail that was wide at the top and bottom and narrow in the middle. When he spoke, the jade nails made a divine "ding-dong" sound when they touched his teeth.

"Hiss! It's so cruel! Use a file to crush your teeth like this, and then pierce your tongue and hang the jade nail, how painful it will be!"

Looking at the old militiamen who were shocked and pale after seeing the face of the gods, Crocodile King Ayin was very satisfied. He smiled and waved his hands, indicating that no one needed to be polite. Then, he pondered for a moment, stood up, held the magic staff, walked to Chihuaco, condescended to him, and personally handed him a sky blue, half-palm-wide, simple jade tablet. The old woman with tiger claws and snake hair engraved on the jade plate is the image of the Moon Goddess.

"Friends from the Tiger Tribe! This is a token of the Moonwater Goddess, a friendship recognized by the Moon Goddess! Next, there is a welcome dinner, where friends can eat and drink to their heart's content, and there are beautiful girls serving around them. This is the Moon Goddess Approved welcome!”

Crocodile King Ayin showed his goodwill again with a smile. His eyes swept over the surprised people. He paused for a moment on the face of Tikalo, who was not very divine, and then looked away without caring. Then, he slapped the magic staff in his hand hard, making a crisp "ding-dong" sound on the bluestone ground. Crocodile King Ayin announced loudly without giving anyone a chance to speak.

"Friends welcomed by the Moon Goddess! The gods have already passed down the decree, which is known to the Mayan tribes along the coast. You drove a treasure ship full of gems all the way east, followed the guidance of the gods, and first docked in my city-state. This It’s the blessing of the Mother Goddess and the blessing of the God of Wealth. Come on, let’s trade gems to our heart’s content after the dinner!”

"What? Are we Gem's fleet? Are we known to the Mayan tribes along the coast?!"

As soon as these words came out, the old militiaman was shocked and looked at the main priest next to him. Priest Tomat frowned and looked around. The Mayan warriors were all holding spears and smiling kindly. Two steps away, Ti Carlo smiled lightly, looked at ease, and lowered his head.
