Four hundred and twentieth chapters Lu Da Shen stick
It is a custom passed down by our ancestors on New Year's Eve. Even people like Lu Wan who go out to sea will still abide by this custom as long as there is no special situation. So these big men are on the beach
After a whole night of trouble, some people returned to the boat to stay up to the New Year after dinner because there were some entertainment facilities on the boat, such as various gambling tools, which could have fun, and the boat was also safe.
Lu Wan was worried that the natives he met yesterday would attack them, but after one night he passed, he didn't even see the shadow of the natives. However, it would be a good idea to be able to safely spend the first night on the island.
It was a sign, so Lu Wan and the others were very happy, and they greeted each other with the crew and then had another meal of dumplings. Then they called a meeting of important figures in the fleet to discuss the issue of exploring the island.
Everyone at the meeting sat on the beach. Lu Wan picked up the tea bowl beside him and drank a big sip of strong tea. He ate too much beef last night, which made him feel uncomfortable in his stomach this morning, so he wanted to drink tea to dissolve the greasy.
They brought not much tea, and it was time to return to the flight.
"Shijie, you discovered this island. Not only are natives living on the island, but also herds of bison. It is a very valuable island. According to our rules, whoever discovers it has the right to name it, so today
The first thing to do is to set the name of the island, and then you take a boat to circle the island, explore the terrain of the island, and mark it on the chart." Lu Wan took a few sips
Tea, and then he said to Feng Shijie beside him.
"Yes, I will go and do it immediately after the meeting. As for the name of this island, since we spent New Year's Eve here, it would be better to call it New Year's Eve Island!" Feng Shijie also said happily.
According to the rules of the sea, whoever discovers an island has the right to name it. Feng Shijie has discovered an island several times before, so he has used his name, his wife and sister's name, so this time he discovered it
Although the island is large, it can no longer be named after its own name, so it has to be named as New Year's Eve.
"New Year's Eve Island, a good name, this sounds much better than that Erhanzi Island!" Lu Wan exclaimed with a big laugh. His last sentence caused many people to laugh, Erhan was the only one sitting.
Zi looked embarrassed.
Erhanzi is not only a good hunter, but also the helm leader on a large ship. Although his position is not as good as that of the captain and surveyor, he is also one of the important figures of the fleet, so he was also called to attend the meeting. As for Lu, he was also called to attend the meeting.
The meaning of Wan's last sentence is that last month, Er Hanzi, who replaced the lookout, accidentally discovered an island. As a result, he insisted on naming it with his own name despite the opposition of the crowd, so he could be selected as one of the top ten most unpleasant islands.
The famous Erhanzi Island was born like this.
After a few jokes, Lu Wan then brought the topic to the point and began to assign everyone's tasks. In fact, it was very simple. It was nothing more than ordering some people to stay on the beach. And build a simple dock as soon as possible to facilitate what they will collect.
The food and fresh water are transported to the boat. In addition, some people are led by Lu Wan himself, and then they take the boat to find another landing place. They search the entire island, and it is best to have some contact with local natives. Of course, they should be careful
Although they are not afraid of each other with their force, if they can avoid conflicts, they should try their best to avoid them. After all, they have lost a lot of manpower along the way.
Just as Lu Wan had assigned the task and everyone was about to stand up and summon people, suddenly a patrol crew member ran in outside the camp quickly. When he saw Lu Wan and the others shouted loudly, "Captain, there are a group of soil outside the camp."
People don’t carry weapons, but our brothers don’t understand what they are saying, nor do they know what they are going to do?”
Hearing the crew's report, Lu Wan and others were all happy. They were about to contact these natives, but they didn't expect that the other party would come to the door. At that moment, Lu Wan immediately spoke: "Liu Tongyi, please follow me immediately.
Let’s meet these natives together!”
"Subordinate!" After hearing Lu Wan's order, Liu Tongyi, who was dark-faced, immediately stood up and said. Although Liu Tongyi's Chinese language was extremely standard, judging from his dark skin and appearance, it was as good as Nanyang.
The natives on the island are very similar, but if you look closely, their facial features also have some characteristics of Han people, and their skin is whiter than those of pure natives.
In fact, this Liu Tong-Tian's name is Liu Kata. He is a mixed-race child of Han and natives. His father is a Han businessman and also a sea businessman. He took a boat to an island to do business, but he was enthusiastic about the natives on the island.
Welcome, and even the native chief held a banquet in person. As a result, the Han merchant was happy and drank a lot. As the saying goes, wine can cause trouble. It was in this case that the Han merchant and the chief's daughter had a chance.
Relationship, when the Han merchant woke up the next day and saw the round chief's daughter beside him, he was already regretful.
This kind of thing was actually nothing. The native women on the island had no idea of chastity. And that night, the chief's daughter fell in love with the Han merchants and came to bed with her own initiative, although the chief's daughter did not look like a Han Chinese.
The aesthetic view, but as a man, it is not a loss in this kind of thing. At most, it is like having a slightly unpalatable meal, and just wait until the next meal to have some good food.
The Han merchants had been traveling on the sea for many years, and naturally knew this, so they didn't think much. The next day he gave the chief's daughter a few pieces of silk and a few small ornaments, and the matter passed. But he didn't let him go.
What I thought was that he and the chief's daughter actually hit the ground. Two months later, the chief's daughter found out that he was pregnant, but at this time, the Han Shang, who caused the accident, had already left the island until five or six years later, this person
Han merchants came to the island to do business again, but they were told that they actually had a mixed-race son here.
Speaking of which, Han Shang was quite responsible. After confirming that this guy with native ancestry was his own son, he decided to take his son back to the Central Plains, and then ask someone to teach his son how to learn the Han nationality and write Chinese characters until he grew up. Han Shang's surname was Liu,
He named the native son Liu Kata, who was the name of the tribe where the chief's daughter lived.
Liu Kata has been running on the sea with his father since he was a child. Perhaps because he is a mixed-race child, his brain is also extremely smart, especially in terms of language, and he is extremely talented. There are hundreds of local languages in the islands in the Nanyang area, but most of them are from the same kind.
The language department, Liu Kata is very proficient in language. No matter what kind of local language, he can communicate successfully with the other party. He is a rare talent. His father took him to do a very smooth business in Nanyang.
Unfortunately, he had several half-brothers on him, who had often bullied him as a bastard. Fortunately, he was protected by Liu Kata's father. Unfortunately, Old Businessman Liu died a few years ago, and now he will never do it again.
No one can stand up for him, but he was driven out of the house by several brothers. In order to make a living, he finally joined the slave hunting team in Taiwan and became a famous translator within the slave hunting association. This time
Like Feng Shijie, he was selected to join the Exploration Fleet.
Lu Wan brought Liu Kata to the outside of the camp, and Feng Shijie and the others also followed with weapons. After all, it is not clear whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, so they must not be taken lightly.
There were indeed a group of natives standing outside the camp. The leader was a leader who was obviously stronger than others. He had dark skin, curly hair, and his upper body was full of tattoos. As for his appearance, in Lu Wan and the others' eyes, these natives were all
It looks almost the same.
What's interesting is that these natives are like cows in the Central Plains region for a year, and they have holes in the middle of their noses, but they are not hanging a bull nose ring, but a long ornament, which looks like they are using some bird.
The higher the status of the natives, the more gorgeous the ornaments on their noses. For example, the first native leader, the ornaments on his nose are made of two feathers, and most of the hard hairs are removed.
Only two royal blue feathers at the tail were left, and as his head kept swinging, it looked funny and beautiful.
The native leader in front of "#¥%#¥%" had a lot of eyesight. When he saw Lu Wan and his group come out, he immediately guessed that this was the other party's leader, so he said a series of words at once, and although Lu Wan said a word, he also said a few words.
I didn't understand, but I felt relaxed because he knew a little about Tuyu. Although he heard the other person's Tuyu, he also knew that this was the same language as the natives they met before, and it was definitely not difficult for Liu.
Kata.
Sure enough, Liu Kata's eyes lit up when he heard the other party's words, and he quickly spoke a few local words. The native leader did not expect that the other party could understand his words, and he was excited to communicate with Liu Kata. And as this
As the exchange progressed, Liu Kata slowly showed an excited expression on his face, but the other party's face became more and more awe.
After a while, Liu Kata stopped communicating with the other party and reported to Lu Wan with a dirty smile: "Captain, the other party said they were native people on this island. Yesterday their hunting team met.
After we passed by, we were just scared away by the power of the musket, and we also asked if we were the messengers sent by the gods?"
This is not the first time Lu Wan has encountered this situation, so he was very calm and made a sacred expression on his face and said to the native leader: "That's right, we are the messengers sent by the gods. Yesterday you
What I saw was the magical artifact given to us by the gods!”
Every time Lu Wan said something, Liu Kata translated something next to him. As a result, after hearing this, many people showed a look of awe, and some even showed a gesture of wanting to kneel down.
