The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1275

[1275. Chapter 1214 Eternal Prosperity]

Wang Wenyu was busy getting up.

They have encountered countless dangers along the way and have long been accustomed to them.

At this time, he hurried to the hill where Lao Li was, and Lao Li handed a telescope to Wang Wenyu.

Wang Wenyu took it, only to find numerous figures in the distance. Obviously, they were local natives. They were wearing animal skins and holding various primitive weapons, and they were wandering in the forest one by one.

Obviously, the team has been targeted by the natives.

Wang Wenyu said: “Assemble people and prepare firearms.”

Wang Wenyu had encountered this kind of situation before, so he seemed extra calm.

Everyone did not hesitate and took out their blunderbuss one after another, and then… Wang Wenyu said: “They don’t know our depth, so they don’t dare to attack. However, we are here and don’t know the location. It’s fine during the day, but at night, if It would be bad if the natives attack us. Therefore, the best way is to scare them during the day and let them know how powerful we are…”

Everyone nodded.

This is the best way to deal with the natives. Neither the expedition team nor the natives know the depth of the other party, nor whether the other party has malicious intentions. The two parties cannot communicate. In this case, in order to protect themselves, The best way is to show your strength so that these natives will feel awe of you and not dare to attack rashly.

Wang Wenyu said again: “Later, try not to hurt people. It’s just scaring. If you hurt people, it’s another matter.”

Lao Li and others nodded, and they familiarly began to check their equipment. There were muskets. , as well as gunpowder, a short knife at the waist, and dry food.

There are not many people who can follow Wang Wenyu across the Bering Strait, and those who are still alive now, no matter who they are, are all tough people.

People are like this. They have experienced a lot, seen a lot, seen despair, fought against wolves on the ice fields, and been attacked by natives. Naturally, the people who survived gradually grew up, and those who survived… In the west of the continent, there were still submissive people, but now, they are all knowledgeable and experienced warriors.

There are still more than a dozen horses surviving in the expedition team.

Horses are the sharpest weapons on this continent.

Because there are no horses at all on this continent, naturally, there are no cavalry.

In fact, these war horses that followed were no longer powerful horses. Most of them were scarred, but here, they were still invincible.

Hunter Lao Li got on his horse and shouted: “Charge!”

At the command, the horse and infantry, regardless of any formation, rushed towards the native.

The natives were holding bows and arrows, weapons made of bones, or stone tools. They were densely packed and looking at something. When they saw these strangers, they suddenly ran towards them. For a moment, they were stunned, and then, They seemed to have reacted and challenged themselves. Looking at these people riding on huge horses, these natives who had never seen horses were frightened, thinking that these were some terrible beasts.

But it was obvious that these natives were quite tough. They made roaring sounds, and the densely packed natives gathered crazily, and some raised their bows and arrows.

And at this moment… bang bang bang…

the sound of firecrackers started.

“…”

The sound of the firecracker resounded throughout the forest.

The natives were stunned for a moment.

They were immediately at a loss for such a weapon that could make thunder, and even thought it was God roaring in anger.

Whoops, a large number of natives actually began to throw away their weapons and bows and arrows, and turned around and fled.

Lao Li and others are accustomed to this.

People who came back from their voyages to the West have written countless stories about overseas experiences, which have long been spread all over the world. They know that the natives of Golden Continent are very tough and fearless of death. Once conflicts arise, the native tribes, men and women Everyone went into battle, one after another.

But what they were most afraid of was firecrackers and artillery. The sound of cannons and cannons together was devastating.

Sure enough…that’s true.

Everyone was shocked and continued to charge.

The natives threw away their helmets and armor and ran away with their heads in their hands.

Wang Wenyu refused to give up easily. If he retreated immediately, the natives would mistakenly think that his firecrackers were just loud thunder and light rain.

When they meet on a narrow road, they need to prove to the other party that they are not afraid of them. Only in this way can they live in harmony.

So, everyone continued to rush and kill, driving away the natives all over the mountains and plains, deep into the forest, and ‘chased’ them for seven or eight miles. When everyone was exhausted, they discovered that there was a sudden light in the forest.

An ancient city built with countless boulders was actually revealed in front of everyone’s eyes.

Wang Wenyu was shocked.

The natives had already fled.

The ancient city is made of huge stones, covered with moss.

Wang Wenyu couldn’t help but asked: “How can these blood-drinking natives build such a huge city?”

Lao Li was panting and carefully observed the situation nearby, and said: “Mr. Wang, it doesn’t look like this ancient city. “

, seems to have been abandoned for some years, and their original owners have long disappeared. Now more of these natives are just entrenched nearby. You see, there are only simple thatched houses outside the ancient city. The habitat of the natives…”

Wang Wenyu nodded. In addition to the buildings with countless huge stones, he also saw a tall tower here, which was also made of huge stones. It was very impressive.

“Go and have a look on that high tower.”

Everyone climbed up the high tower.

From this high tower, you can have a clear view of the forest.

This high tower is a bit like a star observatory. There seems to be an altar at the top of the tower.

There are many human bones here, and it is obvious that captives were sacrificed here.

Wang Wenyu is familiar with astronomy and geography, and has a general understanding of the natives of Golden Continent.

On the altar, there are many stones carved with ghosts and gods.

But at this moment, his eyes suddenly became motionless.

“Come and take a look.” Wang Wenyu looked at the center of the altar and saw two stones as big as eggs.

Suddenly, these two stones attracted everyone’s attention.

The stone is all crystal clear and shines with different lights under the sunlight.

One of them is completely black, the other is completely crystal clear.

“This is…” Wang Wenyu looked surprised: “Diamond?”

Wang Wenyu has seen diamonds before.

It is said that in the inner court of the Ming Dynasty, some Western countries also used diamonds as tribute. However, according to the records in ancient books, Wang Wenyu has never seen a diamond with such a transparent texture. This diamond is actually one black and one white, which is very dazzling. Each section reflects a different halo. Wang Wenyu What was shocking was that it was said that a diamond as big as a red date was considered holy and very rare, but now… what he saw was a diamond as big as two eggs.

“Huh…” Wang Wenyu took off the two diamonds and placed them in his hands. They were heavy.

These two diamonds have obviously been polished manually, making them even more dazzling. The original diamonds may be larger than what is seen now. Moreover, the texture of diamond is extremely hard. God knows what method the original owner of this diamond relied on and how much manpower and material resources he used to turn two diamonds into finished products.

Lao Li licked his lips at the side: “Mr. Wang, we…may be getting rich.”

Wang Wenyu’s eyes reflected a dazzling light: “Such a gem is not something we can own.” He paused: “Look, this gemstone is one black and one white. It is unique in the world. The texture of diamond is indestructible. The white one is the sun, and the black one is the moon. What does the sun and the moon add up to?”

“Ming!” Lao Li subconsciously said The way.

Wang Wenyu said excitedly: “That’s it. The sun and the moon are bright. This is a sign that our Ming Dynasty will be eternal and indestructible. In the past, what was this called?”

Old Li understood: “Auspicious?”

This… It’s really auspicious, it couldn’t be more auspicious.

In order to prove that he is the orthodoxy of the world, the emperor inevitably needs some rare astronomical and geographical phenomena to prove that he is appointed by heaven. Therefore, many people take this opportunity to report auspiciousness, but most of them are far-fetched.

But… thousands of miles away, two such gems appeared, one black and one white, unique in the world. Even Wang Wenyu and other students of Xishan Academy were in a daze, vaguely thinking that this might be… It is truly an auspicious sign from heaven, a sign of eternal prosperity for the Ming Dynasty.

You don’t have to believe this, but everyone will be confused by such a meaning.

Wang Wenyu was so excited that he couldn’t help himself. He took away the two gems and said, “Go back to the Ming Dynasty. These two gems have returned to the Ming Dynasty and are dedicated to the court and the emperor. This is a great achievement.”

Lao Li nodded desperately, with blue veins on his forehead. exposed.

He knew what this meant.

“What I’m saying is that along the way, I heard Mr. Wang talk about the so-called ridiculous auspiciousness reported by local officials. I really laughed to death. But after seeing these two gems today, I realized that there may be real auspiciousness in the world. Sir, here It’s not advisable to stay for a long time. I think those natives will come back after being frightened. Let’s go south now.”

Wang Wenyu was still extremely excited.

Carrying these two gems in my arms felt heavy.

Perhaps the world really needs beautiful meanings. When he returns to his hometown, he will give these two gems to his master first, and then ask him to present them to His Majesty…

There are so many things in his mind that he is a little confused.

“Look, such auspiciousness can be found in this Golden Continent. This is enough to prove that our Ming Dynasty’s plan to manage the Golden Continent is God’s grace. This Golden Continent is a gift from God to His Majesty the Emperor. The Ming Dynasty occupies this place. , Destined to be eternally prosperous, the country will last forever! Notify everyone, hurry up and don’t stay any longer. “
