Chapter 241 The Mayans
A girl, to be precise, should be a girl with a big belly, or to be precise, she should be a pretty girl with a big belly, with a darker skin than ordinary people, and a big braid. Although her facial features are very similar to those of the Han people, from her skin color and the clothes and accessories on her body, you can still tell at a glance that she is not a Han person.
"Indian?" When Li Xiu saw this girl, this term first appeared in his mind. Although he had never seen a real Indian in his later generations, he had never seen a person dressed in the same way in some books or movies. Now, he suddenly saw such a living Indian in his home, which naturally made him feel like he was confused in time and space, as if he had traveled through the early American westerns in later generations.
However, although Li Xiu was surprised to see the Indian girl, he quickly reacted. He walked forward and saluted to the bearded guest and said, "My nephew, please see uncle, congratulations to uncle for his safe return from America!"
"Haha~, you don't have to be too polite. If you didn't have your guidance, I'm afraid I would never know that there was another world on the other side of the sea!" The bearded guest saw Li Xiu and hurriedly stood up and supported him. He was arrogant by nature. Apart from Li Shimin and Li Jing and other few people in the world, few people could catch his eyes on him, but Li Xiu was an exception. Even in the bearded guest's heart, Li Xiu's status was even more important than Li Shimin and others.
Hearing the words of the bearded guest, Li Xiu couldn't help but smile and politely, then he looked at the big-bellied Indian girl next to him, and then asked the bearded guest in a low voice: "Uncle, why did you bring this American woman to the Tang Dynasty? And you have a big belly? Isn't it your disaster?"
The Indians were named by Europeans in later generations for Americans, so Li Xiu directly called the other party an American. And based on his understanding of the bearded guest, this guy was a serious pirate and had no laws to restrict him overseas. He definitely did a lot of robbing native girls. Moreover, it was normal for him to make a big American girl's belly after so long.
"What nonsense? This is the romantic debt left by the bastard Eleven. She is my grandson in her belly. But this matter is long. I have been rushing since the early morning and haven't even eaten food yet. Go and ask someone to prepare the meal. In addition, if you have someone to entertain Qu Yi, I will talk to you about Qu Yi and Eleven later." When the bearded guest mentioned Zhang Shiyi's son, he also had a headache. It seems that the story of Qu Yi and Zhang Shiyi is not that simple.
"No problem, uncle, wait a moment, I'll prepare the meal!" When Li Xiu heard that this song was actually caused by Zhang Shiyi, a guy who specialized in unusual ways, he was shocked at the moment, and the gossip fire in his heart also burned wildly.
It just so happened that Princess Pingyang was here, so Li Xiu invited Princess Pingyang to take this girl named Qu Yiyou to the inner house, and she and the lady in the rooster were entertained. As for him, he prepared the meal in the living room. The bearded guest was really hungry. After the food came, he didn't say anything, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
"Uncle, there is still a jar of good wine at home. I'll bring it to you!" Li Xiu suddenly realized that he still had the last jar of distilled wine hidden. Although it was not worth drinking, the bearded guest came back from America and naturally needed to celebrate such a big celebration.
"Forget it, hide your wine for the time being, and drink it when I have the chance in the future!" The bearded guest said at this time and said.
"Huh? Uncle, have you always been drinking, why did you go to America to change your temper?" Li Xiu couldn't help but say in surprise when he heard his words. Every time a bearded guest came to him, he never said he wouldn't drink.
When Li Xiu was surprised, the bearded guest sighed, then opened the clothes on his chest and let Li Xiu look at it. What shocked Li Xiu was that there were several wounds on the bearded guest's chest. Although they were bandaged, they still looked a little shocking.
"What's going on? Uncle, are you injured?" Li Xiu couldn't help but say in shock when he saw this.
"This is not a injury, but a disease!" I saw the bearded man ate a big bite of hot dishes, and then continued to explain, "Maybe it was because I killed too many people when I was young, or it might be because I liked drinking too much and stayed overseas all year round, so the doctor said that I was damp and poisonous, which often caused some abscesses on my body, which could not be cured. I could only dig it out with a knife. Before the injury was healed, I would never get drunk, otherwise it would recur more seriously. So I couldn't drink alcohol during this period!" When the bearded man spoke, he also showed a regretful expression on his face. This disease had been entangled with him for many years and could not be cured at all.
Li Xiu was stunned when he heard this. Although he knew some medical knowledge, he was really powerless to treat the disease of the bearded guest. He had to speak again: "It's okay if you can't drink alcohol. It's a big harm to your health. Uncle, you even have a grandson now. You should take care of yourself in the future!"
Speaking of the grandson of the bearded guest, Li Xiu immediately thought of the American girl named Qu Yi just now. He asked curiously again: "Uncle, what's going on with Qu Yi? Why did Brother Eleven owe all his romantic debts to America?"
When Li Xiu mentioned Zhang Shiyi, the bearded guest immediately slapped the table with anger, grabbed a chicken leg and bit it hard, as if he wanted to swallow Zhang Shiyi's son alive. Finally, he spoke with hatred: "I shouldn't have agreed to let the bastard Eleven go to America with me. Although he performed well at sea, this bastard didn't do any serious business after going to America. It would be fine if he had sex with some native women before, but later he caused us a big trouble, so I had to divide the fleet into two parts and let him escape back by himself..."
Listening to the story of Qiuyan, Li Xiu slowly understood what the trouble Zhang Shiyi caused, and at the same time, he also learned about Qiuyan and his experience after they arrived in America. This experience was much smoother than he thought, except for Zhang Shiyi's accident.
According to the bearded guest, after arriving in North America, they immediately headed south along the coastline, hoping to arrive in Central and South America early to find corn and other crops. During the driving process, they inevitably go ashore frequently to replenish food and drinking water, and to help the crew relieve their nerves.
It was during the process of getting ashore that the Qiuyan and the others met the natives of the Americas for the first time, that is, the natives who were later called Indians by Westerners, but the Qiuyans were more willing to call them Native Americans.
Some of these native Americans were very hostile to them, and even attacked them without asking any questions. They were prepared for this. They had been in Nanyang and other places before, and they had encountered similar situations, so they had been prepared to fight back, and they didn't have to worry about not being able to beat them. Anyway, they had a boat, and as long as they fled to the boat, the natives would have no choice but to do anything about them.
But to the surprise of the bearded guest, these native Americans had very poor combat power. The weapons they used were either made of wooden or stone. Not to mention iron tools, they could not even find a bronze tool. In addition, these natives did not have a unified army and their combat methods were very backward. As a result, even the natives who were ten times more powerful than theirs would be quickly defeated by them.
After several bloody wars, the bearded guests and the others had almost no major casualties. Instead, countless natives fell on the coast where they had rested, which also made their reputation spread. After that, few natives dared to cause trouble for them again.
In addition, some natives are very friendly to them. They are not only willing to communicate with them, but also take out food and water to them. The bearded guests also reciprocate and give some cloths on the boat to each other. As a result, these native Americans are even more enthusiastic.
In addition, these native women seem to have no sense of chastity. As long as both sides are willing, the crew members can take them to the beach where there is no way to go. These crew members have been holding on the boat for several months, and they are all veterans in this field. When they were in South China, they were not picky even those South China women who were as dark as charcoal, let alone the skin color and appearance of these American women were very similar to that of the Han people. Therefore, whenever they met these friendly tribes, they were the most excited when the crew members were the most excited.
The bearded guest didn't care about this situation, because this was an unwritten rule in the fleet, and for the crew, finding a woman to vent was the best way to rest, so as not to cause trouble on the boat with excessive energy. Even the bearded guest himself would take him on the boat for a long time when he met a woman he liked. As for whether he would leave blood in America, it was not something they considered.
Zhang Shiyi was the son of a bearded guest and also inherited his point very well. Moreover, Zhang Shiyi was younger and was very romantic when he was in Japan. At this time, he naturally became more presumptuous after he arrived in America. Moreover, he only liked beauties, and he only seduced the most beautiful women in the tribe every time, of course, with the aesthetics of the Han people.
However, when the bearded and the others arrived in Central America, this situation changed a little because the bearded and found that the native Americans here were more advanced. Although they still had no iron tools, they knew how to cultivate and build. Some coasts could see some places similar to towns. Moreover, when the natives here saw them, they were not hostile and friendly, and instead took out goods to trade with them.
When they drove south again, the town they saw was even bigger, and there were many tall temples in the town. He once entered a small town and found that there was a lot of gold in the temple, which showed that they knew how to smel metals, but there were still no metal utensils in the town. What shocked him even more was that these natives didn't even have cars, or they didn't know how to use wheels.
"Maya!" Li Xiu couldn't help but scream when he heard this. He finally knew who the local people living in the town that the bearded guest said were! (To be continued.)
