Chapter 1291 Golden Divine Power! Ainu People’s Question to the Sky!

"May the Lord bless you! My friend, you don't know the past of our ancestors, so you can't understand the inseparable blood connection between us Jiao brothers and the eternal origin of the gods... Therefore, you can't trust us for the time being, and we can't include you in the big family of Jiao brothers... But we are still full of goodwill and regard you as friends who can trade and communicate!"

The bright sunshine illuminates the Ainu village on the seaside. The armored warriors of the kingdom hold golden bronze spears in their hands. The tall deer hunters hold sharp horn bows. The Ainu villagers hold the messy sticks and spears tightly, nervous and terrified.

The tribal chief Kitajima Yupi tried to maintain a smile, listening to the nice translation of Qiandao Shell and the "deceptive nonsense" from Zuwaro's mouth. For a moment, he almost thought that the "hairy chief" in front of him was transformed by an evil "fox Shenwei".

The "Shenwei" mentioned by the Ainu people is all living things, the spirit of divinity. It can be a kind guardian spirit or an evil destructive spirit. The legendary "Fox God" loves to lie, say nice and false words, to blackmail other kind Gods, and even take away the power from other guardian spirits... However, thinking of the current poverty in the tribe, he couldn't imagine... What on earth do they have that is worthy of the other party's good words and plotting instead of directly robbing?

"Friend...ah? Your name is Fish Skin?...Chief Fish Skin, this is our guardian god, the symbol of 'Ocean, Thunder, Storm and Sun God', an emblem that can be prayed and worshipped!...He is the most powerful guardian spirit, the most powerful God, and the incarnation of the creator god Kamui! He is supreme and omnipotent!..."

"Come! Wear this golden amulet! The most powerful guardian God will protect you!..."

Zuwaro looked pious, like a tribal shaman, and took a golden amulet of the main god from his neck. Then, while Beidao Yupi was trembling nervously, he smiled kindly and generously put a one-pound golden talisman on the other's neck.

"Lord God bless you! This is the most powerful Lord God's divine power, which I lend my hands to give you a gift!..."

"Haha! No, we don't need your return, we don't need the food in your village, and we don't need the fur you have accumulated!...Yes, this is free, it is given to you by the divine power!..."

"May the divine power of the Lord God bless you! Goodbye, my friend, Chief Yupi!..."

In Beidao Yupi's astonished eyes, Zuwaro waved his hand, led more than a hundred fully armed warriors, and retreated to the beach. Then, everyone in the kingdom boarded the longboat again, turned the bow, and gradually sailed to the west, and soon disappeared.

"The orca divine power that protects the tribe! This...what is going on? These tribes that look so ferocious just left without taking anything?"

Beidao Yupi was stunned in place, his face full of confusion. He seemed to see a violent wind from the sea, suddenly appearing with a roar, containing the thunder power that destroyed the tribe, and directly approaching him! Then, the storm suddenly turned around, just gently touched his cheek, and suddenly disappeared. In the end, only a golden amulet with a glittering golden light and a strange bird engraved on it was left...

"It's so heavy... Is it really a golden amulet?... Is this the gold that the Japanese people in the southernmost part are willing to buy from all tribes for unlimited purchases of wine, food and ironware?!... How much food can such a large piece of gold be exchanged for!..."

"This... How can this be the power of the sea and thunder?... This is clearly... the power of gold that has never been seen before!!"

Beijing Island Fish Skin stood in front of the village, watching the west where the long ship disappeared, and was silent for a long time. Everything today was really ups and downs, completely beyond all his expectations, and he didn't know what to say. The Ainu people tend to be introverted and don't like to shout. He stood there silently until the leader of the tribe's hunters, Yu Jiantou, came forward and whispered hesitantly.

"Chief, they didn't take anything. They don't look like the Japanese in the south, nor like the rumored Yama tribe... They don't look like bad people!..."

"Hmm..."

"Then should we still follow our original plan and migrate to avoid them?"

"...No."

"Ah? Why?..."

"They don't look like bad people..."

After repeating the conversation, both of them fell silent. In fact, both of them knew the reason for not migrating. Although this Ainu Island is large, it is not like the North American continent where the tribes are simple and the land is shared... Every inch of land here has an owner!

Whether it is a hunting ground, a fishing ground, a forest farm, or a rare and precious mine, there is a general tribal affiliation! Especially in the past few decades, the southernmost people have been constantly pressing northward, forcing many Ainu tribes in the southern islands to move northward... The conflicts and disputes over the territories of the tribes have become more and more intense, and there is almost no empty land.

If you want empty land, you can only find a new home to settle the old and young in the tribe by migrating to the more desolate Thousand Islands in the north. However, this powerful tribe that appeared inexplicably on a big ship came from the Thousand Islands in the north! Migrating north at this time is like throwing yourself into the grass net of the fishing boat like a salmon swimming upstream? ..

"Chief, you said... If a powerful tribe really rises in the Thousand Islands in the north and begins to expand southward... What should we do then?..."

"What should we do? ... Guardian's divine power! It depends on how powerful this tribe is! If they are as powerful as the Beiyu tribe with tens of thousands of people, then we have to be careful to cater to them, like a reed, swaying between the Northern Thousand Islands and the Southern Islands..."

Beidao Yupi replied in a deep voice, holding the golden talisman in his hand, carefully looking at the "divine power pattern" on it. The fish arrowhead next to him scratched his head and asked again with some uneasiness.

"But the weapons of these people today, the armor I have never seen before, and those cold wolf-like eyes... I always feel that they are very dangerous! It seems that they are more dangerous than the several large tribal alliances in the south! Their sophisticated equipment is like the vicious Japanese in the south... Chief, you say, if they are stronger than the Ishikari, Dongyuan, and Xiyuan tribes in the South Island, and stronger than these large tribes! Then what should we do?..."

"Hmm? A large tribe that is stronger than the Ishikari, Dongyuan, and Xiyuan tribes with a total of 200 people?..."

Hearing this, Beidao Yupi chuckled, shook his head and sighed.

"Arrowhead, if that happens... do we have any choice? When the winter ice storm comes, all the long grass, reeds, and small trees will have to fall down and kowtow... At that time, we will have no choice but to move closer and beg to be accepted by the powerful tribal alliance, rather than become the target of their expansion and plunder!..."

".No choice..."

Yu Arrowhead pulled at his thick chest hair, wanting to feel the pain in his heart so that he could be more sober. Beidao Fish Skin did not do so. At this moment, the uneasiness in his heart could not be relieved by pain, so he could only seek the help of the guardian spirit and the enlightenment of the gods.

"The power of the ancestors! The power of the guardian! The power of the flame!... And the wisdom of the owl, the sharpness of the mountain eagle, the intuition of the black bear..."

Beidao Fish Skin looked solemn, walked to the crude altar, and slowly raised a fire. He stared at the flames, chanted softly, and took different guardian objects from Yu Arrowhead's hands. The hair of the ancestors, the teeth of killer whales, the ashes of burnt grass, the nose of a black bear, the eyeballs of a mountain eagle, the skull of an owl... all were placed beside the altar.

"Spiritual God! I will offer you a story and pray for your interpretation of the story... Please send me a dream, or use any omen..."

Beidao Yupi chanted, opened his mouth wide, stuffed the golden talisman into his mouth, bit it hard, it was hard, soft and sweet. Then, he held the golden talisman in his mouth, opened his mouth wider, and faced the midday sun, as if he wanted to eat it hard!

"The ancestors said... The sun rises from the top of the world, and the most powerful evil spirit wants to eat the sun..."

Beidao Yupi opened his mouth, muttered, and uttered unclear words. But Yujiantou heard it clearly. This is a ballad passed down by the tribe, and it is also a story often used for divination, "Origin, sunrise, people, crows and foxes".

"The evil spirit opened its mouth and swallowed half of the Sun Mother Goddess... But the brave ancestor Shenwei stuffed the crow and the fox into the evil spirit's mouth and rescued the Sun Mother Goddess... In the end, the sun finally rose high!"

"In return for saving the Sun Mother Goddess, people spread all over the island. Crows and foxes also gained spirituality, and there were no more creatures than crows and foxes!... People, crows and foxes shared the food of the earth, but their Shenwei went to different seashores... In the end, the ancestor of people died, the crow became a guardian spirit, and the fox became a destructive spirit!..."

"I always remember this story, it was my father's father, heard from my grandfather's grandfather... Shenwei is always changing, and so are the tribes... An ancient and mysterious story, there will always be its projection and comparison in the world..."

"Spiritual Shenwei! If in the near future, the evil spirit opens its mouth again and swallows the sun in the sky..."

At this moment, Beidao Yupi took a deep breath and spit out the golden talisman in his mouth, right in the center of the altar! Then, he suddenly pulled out the stone knife from his waist, cut his palm with force, and dripped blood on the hummingbird of the golden talisman!

"Spiritual God! Golden God! I offer you my blood, please enlighten me for the future of my tribe!..."

Beijing Island Fish Skin shouted and raised his head again! He put the golden talisman with blood staining lines in his mouth again. He opened his mouth wide and tasted his own blood and the sweetness of the golden talisman!

He posed in a weird posture, squinting his eyes and bleeding, looking at the noon sun in the south, asking questions to the sky in the north, and asking all spiritual things, the God of all things!

"Then, please tell me!... Who is the evil spirit? Who is the sun? Who is a human? Where are the crows and foxes?!..."

"Where are they?..."

Echoes echoed between the sky and the earth by the sea. This is the Ainu chief's question to the sky, and there will be the answer of the Ainu God to guide the future of the Ainu people! I just don’t know how long it will take for this answer to come, and which powerful god will give the omen~~
