Chapter 1079 Local Aboriginals(2/2)
Went to the sea to feed the fish.
He bowed to the middle-aged scribe and expressed his gratitude, but the old man stopped talking.
Woo~~woo~~
The sound of the horn suddenly alerted a few people who were chatting on the bow. The middle-aged scribe was the first to stand up suddenly, looked forward, and asked sharply: "What's going on?"
Not long after, someone came to report: "Returning to the clan leader, we found someone on the mountain ahead."
As he spoke, he pointed towards a rolling hillside on the coast ahead.
"Human?" The middle-aged scribe covered his forehead with the strong sunlight with his hands and looked into the distance.
The distance was too far and it was difficult to see clearly, but judging from the outline, the opponent was standing on the hillside with two feet and holding something like a spear in his hand.
It is indeed human!
The middle-aged scribe pondered for a while, then he was overjoyed and immediately ordered: "Draw to the shore and stop the boat."
The ship immediately lowered its sails and slowly moved closer to the shore.
"Patriarch, what are you doing?" The old man just now was very confused. Although he said that he didn't think Han Du could catch up, shouldn't they leave immediately and wait until they were at a safe enough distance before landing?
The middle-aged scribe guessed what the old man was thinking and said with a smile on his face: "Since there are people here, there may be a country. Even if there is only one small country, as long as we can persuade them to trust us, then we can
Feared. You can even take this opportunity to settle down here."
Being reminded like this by the clan leader, everyone's faces showed overwhelming joy. The word "settlement" has haunted them for so long. They don't even know how many people who are traveling with them have not waited for this day at all.
.
As soon as the middle-aged scribe's words came out, they were like firewood that ignited the firewood in everyone's hearts, instantly burning with high flames.
Once this flame is ignited, no one can easily extinguish it. At least, the old man cannot.
As the ship as tall as a city approached, the people on the hillside also made a series of "woo-hoo-ho-ho" sounds behind them. I don't know if they were warning the middle-aged scribes and others not to get close, or to warn the people behind them.
The middle-aged scribe and others got off the boat and went to the beach to be on guard. Before they could go up the hillside, they saw a large group of people emerging one after another from behind the hillside.
The middle-aged scribe and the person next to him looked at each other, a little surprised, "Is there really a country here?"
If this is really the case, then there is no end to the problem!
After thinking for a moment, the middle-aged scribe decided to have a look. He raised his head and looked at the people on the hillside, waving his hands to warn them as they slowly came forward.
Just as the middle-aged scribe and others were walking towards the hillside, the people on the hillside also began to walk towards them.
The two parties stopped about ten feet apart.
The middle-aged scribe and others stopped first, but found that the other party was still approaching, and they couldn't help but look surprised.
A young man next to him took a step forward, leaned into the ear of the middle-aged scribe and said: "Chief, looking at their actions, they should only be able to attack things less than ten feet away. And our arrows can completely hit them.
They're all covered."
After listening to the young man's words, the middle-aged scribe felt more confident. He immediately raised his hands to the leader in the distance and said with a smile: "I am the head of the Shen family. I have just arrived in your place. I apologize for disturbing you all."
The leader was wearing a crown of exploding eagle feathers, with red, green, yellow and other bright long feathers hanging from his temples, showing that he was different from others. He was wearing something unknown, and it was hard to tell what it was.
The fur or feathers of something.
Everyone else wears a simple hairband on their head, with only a few short feathers mixed on it. Some people are naked from the waist up, while others have all kinds of weird lines drawn on them, some straight, some curved, all kinds of colors.
Not the same. The bronze skin reflected heavy light under the scorching sun.
These people all had black hair and black eyes. At first glance, the Shen family thought they were in a remote place in the Ming Dynasty.
“%¥#@&……*%¥##”
Facing the Shen family leader's polite questions, what he got was a completely incomprehensible voice.
The Shen family couldn't understand what the other party was saying at all. They turned around and glanced at the people around them, hoping for a miracle. But what disappointed him was that everyone he glanced at lowered their heads.
.
Forget it, I didn’t expect anyone to understand.
But I can't understand the words, so I'm in trouble now
The head of the Shen family had no choice but to hold on to the hope that something might happen and continued: "I, the head of the Shen family, Shen Zhou, encountered a storm on the sea and had to stop here. I will rest here temporarily and leave after I have recovered."
It's a pity that no matter how fancy Shen Zhou's words are, for the other party, it's just like a duck talking and they have no idea what he is talking about.
However, when the people on the opposite side saw them standing there, they did not make a move for a long time, and Shen Zhou kept talking with a smile on his face.
Although the languages are different, the meanings expressed by smiles are quite consistent.
The other party felt the kindness of Shen Zhou and others, and immediately laughed.
Both sides laughed together, and the tense atmosphere immediately eased.
Just when Shen Zhou and others didn't know how to continue, the other party sent someone to the middle, put down some wrapped things and placed them on the rocks.
What does this mean? Shen Zhou and others looked at each other.
After a while, Shen Zhou ordered several people to come forward to investigate.
Several people came forward in an uneasy mood, looking at each other from time to time, with wary expressions on their faces. When they came to the stone, they frowned and looked at the black lumps on the stone.
"It looks like some kind of meat." Someone looked at it for a few times and said hesitantly.
Someone who was brave simply squatted down and tore the meat apart with his bare hands. He tore off a thin strip and put it in his mouth to taste carefully. As soon as the shredded meat entered his mouth, his eyes lit up and he immediately said: "It's beef."
!”
As soon as he said these words, the Shen family and others were greatly relieved.
Since people have brought out beef to entertain them, it means that the possibility of the other party being hostile to them is very low. However, they should not take it too lightly.
Shen Zhou motioned to the person behind him, who stepped forward, took the beef in his hand and looked at it carefully, then tore it open and looked at it again and again, and finally tore one piece and put it in his mouth. Then he put the beef down.
He nodded towards Shen Zhou.
"There's nothing wrong with the beef. You can eat it." This man is a special talent of the Shen family and can identify all kinds of poisons. As long as something passes through his hand, he can tell whether it is poisonous or not at a glance.
Shen Zhou immediately led everyone and stepped forward with a smile on his face. Since it was a kind gesture from the other party, he pretended to take a few bites.
Seeing that almost everyone on the other side was naked, and noticing that the other side's eyes fell on the clothes of himself and others, he couldn't help but look envious. Shen Zhou immediately pondered, waved his hand and said: "Come here, give me this
They sent some bolts of summer green cloth."
Summer green cloth is also a kind of cotton, and its texture is relatively thin, so it is suitable to wear in summer. The climate here is hot, even better than in summer, so naturally summer green cloth is the most suitable gift.
The Xia Qingbu sent by the Shen family was also placed on a stone not far from those people, and then returned.
Those people had long been envious of the clothes of the Shen family and others, and now that they saw something similar being delivered to them, they didn't hesitate at all and went directly to touch it.
The more they rubbed, the more excited those people became. In the end, they even seemed to be quarreling. In the end, the leader scolded several times before shouting everyone back.
Asking people to put away the cloth, the leader stretched out his hand to signal to the Shen family and follow them.
Shen Zhou was immediately surprised. How long have they known each other? Even the languages are different, that is, they only gave each other a few things. They don't even know enough about what kind of people they are, how come this person dares to invite them?
How much heart do you have to be able to do such a reckless thing?
Shen Zhou was a little undecided and asked the people around him, "What should I do? It looks like he wants to invite us? Should we go or not?"
Several people looked at each other and began to think deeply.
After a while, Shen Zhou's fifth uncle was the first to speak: "Chief, I think we should go."
