Kawashita Ishikawa was crawling in the grass, holding an old monocular telescope, and was carefully observing a small indigenous tribe on the hillside in the distance. When they were in the jungle before the Literature Museum, they heard a faint whistling sound, which was This is the communication method commonly used by Javanese natives when hunting, and their purpose of entering the jungle this time was to find these Javanese natives hiding in the jungle, kill them, take away their heads, and hand them over to hired men.

Since Daqi issued a decree defining all Javanese natives as terrorists, and stipulated that any non-Han people who can provide the heads of a hundred Javanese natives will be granted a real Han household registration and enjoy all the rights that Han people should have. treatment.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused all non-Han people to go crazy. Although it is an impossible task for one person to kill hundreds of natives, there is no provision in the law that the native head provided by the person concerned must be his own. Killed by hand, that is to say, Daqi officials have acquiesced in the fact that no matter what method you use, as long as you can provide a hundred heads to the official, you can obtain Han household registration.

There are not many people who understand the deeper meaning of this decree, especially those upper-class figures who are not Han people. Some of these top-level figures were originally big shots of their own tribe. Later, they saw the opportunity quickly and faced Li Min's army. , immediately chose to surrender, such as the Suga clan and the Ishigami clan of the Japanese state. In addition, some of them relied on their own efforts after becoming common people in Daqi, seizing many fewer opportunities than the Han people, and made countless sacrifices. With twice the effort and hard work, I slowly climbed up step by step and gained a lot of wealth.

However, no matter how rich the non-Han upper class are, they are always lower than the Han people in politics, economy and life, so they want to have a Han identity more than anyone else. However, Daqi is not willing to convert foreigners into Han people. The requirements are too harsh, and some people have not even reached the level of a first-level alien, let alone others.

It was also under this circumstance that when the decree was issued that exchanged the heads of a hundred Javanese natives for one Han household registration, these people immediately went crazy. They waved their gold and silver and rushed to hire some famous slave-catching teams to let them go crazy. They got themselves a hundred native heads.

Kawashitaishi's team is all composed of Japanese, and they are known for their brutal behavior. They are also well-known in the slave-catching community. Some time ago, he received news from a dwarf black chief in Luzon, who offered him a sky-high price of 50,000 gu. Purchasing a hundred Javanese native heads, each head is worth a hundred guan. It is a hundred times higher than the official purchase price. This shows how eager those rich people are to obtain the identity of the Han people. But this has nothing to do with Kawashita Ishi, he only Knowing that he was going to make a fortune, he agreed without saying a word.

However, it was only after Kawashita arrived in Java that he discovered that this sky-high price of money was not so easy to earn. First of all, after the great plague in the past few years, the remaining Javanese natives were less than a million, and they were all scattered in the deep mountains and old forests. . Ordinary people can’t find it at all. Of course, you can also spend money to buy local people’s location information from some cities in Java, but these information are generally not very accurate, and the price is scary.

Ishikawa stayed in a city called Palembang in eastern Java for a few days. After inquiring from many sources, he finally confirmed the news, that is, in a tropical jungle southwest of Palembang, there were natives who once appeared, but later there were also a few A team with the same purpose went into the jungle to search, but found nothing.

However, this did not dampen the search enthusiasm of latecomers. Many teams, with the dream of getting rich, entered the jungle to search without hesitation, and Kawashita Ishi's team was one of them.

"The men in their prime are between fifty and eighty. According to this ratio, the number of women, children, old and young is definitely more than the number of men in their prime. As long as this tribe can be captured, then this mission will be considered completed!" Kawashita Ishi put down his hand.

Telescope, said with excitement.

Previously, they heard the contact signals sent by the natives while hunting in the jungle, which allowed them to immediately determine the location of the native hunting team. Later, when they got there, they quickly passed through some traces in the jungle.

The hunting team found the eye

The location of this small tribe in the past. It was great luck to encounter a native hunting team in such a large jungle. At the same time, it also convinced Kawashita and the team members that this time they were favored by God and would definitely be able to survive.

Get that huge sum of 50,000 yuan.

"Brother, if we can get that money, we can buy a larger plantation in Luzon. The annual output should be able to support the whole family without any problem. Then we won't have to work as hard as we do now!"

Kawashita Yuji next to him spoke again, but this time although he did not forget to speak Chinese, he was so happy that he forgot to call Kawashita Ishi the leader.

However, Kawashitaishi was too happy to notice these details at all. He first calmed down and calmed down his excitement. Years of life and death experience told him that the more at the last moment, the more he needs to calm down, otherwise

It is very likely that the boat will capsize in the gutter.

I saw Kawashitaishi taking a few deep breaths, and then he carefully put away the worn-out monocular telescope in his hand. This telescope was bought at a junk stall when he first entered the industry. Although it looked shabby, it was originally used by the navy.

, the power is much stronger than the civilian telescopes available on the market, so he has always cherished it very much. Whenever he picks it up, it reminds Kawashita Ishi of the hardships he has endured over the years and how he has overcome so many difficulties.

It made him feel a little calmer.

"How long have the people sent to notify the main force been gone?" Kawashitaishi suddenly asked Kawashita Yuji next to him. The more people in the team searching for the natives, the better. Kawashitaishi only brought with him this time

With less than thirty people, it was obviously impossible to annihilate the tribe of more than a hundred people in front of them.

However, this is not the only one in their Kawashita slave-catching team. There are more than fifty people waiting outside the jungle. After just discovering this native village, Kawashita immediately sent people back to inform the main force that only two parties had gathered.

Finally, I had the strength to swallow this big piece of fat in one bite.

"The people who are going back have been walking for five days. They have compasses in their hands. They should not get lost, and they don't have to run around like we did before. It is estimated that the people behind will arrive in three days at most!" Kawashita

You Er opened his mouth and said that he was a bit stupid in speaking, but he was very strong in calculation.

"Well, very good, how much dry food is left now?" Kawashita nodded and asked again.

When his brother asked about dry food, Kawashita Yuer couldn't help but said with a grimace: "Chief, we wanted to ensure that the people who reported the news had the strength to rush back, so most of the dry food was given to them, and the remaining small part was given to them earlier.

We have been eating for a few days, and now the brothers are all hungry."

After hearing this, Kawashitaishi turned around and looked at his brothers behind him. He saw these brothers, who had been with him through life and death, crawling in the grass one by one. All of them were hungry and had sallow complexions. They had been staying here for the past five days. In the jungle two or three miles away from the village, not only was there no food, but in order to avoid exposing the target, everyone barely moved. Fortunately, the Japanese were always known for their endurance. If it had been anyone else, they probably wouldn't have been able to survive at all. Can't hold on.

"We can't go on like this." Kawashita whispered to himself. Although the large army arriving in a few days will definitely bring food, if the more than 20 of them continue to be hungry, they will definitely have physical problems. Even if you eat dry food, it will be difficult to have the strength to fight in a short period of time, so you must find some food for your brothers!

Thinking of this, Kawashitaishi took out the telescope in his arms and handed it to Kawashita Yuji. He said solemnly: "Yuji, I have to find some food for my brothers. You use the telescope to monitor the natives. Don't let them." The natives found us!"

Hearing that his eldest brother had entrusted him with such an important matter, Kawashita Yuji was also very excited. He immediately took the telescope and said: "Don't worry, leader, I will definitely help you monitor those natives, and they will never let them discover us!"

Hearing his brother's assurance, Kawashita Ishi also nodded. Although Kawashita Yuji is young, he believes that he can still do this, and wasn't his father sending him here just to train him?

After explaining Kawashita Yuuji, Kawashitaishi said hello to several other brothers, and then carried his throwing knife on his back and entered the jungle. His body was strong, even if he had not eaten anything in the first five days, but after years of practice, The flying knife was still very accurate. Two hours later, Kawashitaishi returned with several prey items on his back, including four venomous snakes, two pheasants, and even a half-human-tall monkey.

The reason why there are so many prey is also due to the fact that these people have been crawling here motionless in the past few days, which made the animals that were originally scared away by them think that this jungle is safe, so they all ran away. When he came back, Kawashitaishi entered the jungle and easily caught so many prey with his skill.

Perhaps because of the existence of the tribe in the distance, the nearby jungle seems a bit sparse, and the sun can shine on the ground, making the ground here not only dry, but also with dry firewood to burn. Unfortunately, it is too close to the native village. In order to avoid being exposed, Kawashitaishi could only order everyone to eat the prey alive. Even so, these team members who had been hungry for several days still ate extremely sweet food. Just looking at the blood on their faces, if outsiders saw it, they would definitely I was scared to death because they looked exactly like the legendary cannibals who drank hair and drank blood.
