Aztec Eternals Chapter 1210

The wind blows in the sea of trees, and the tall trees in the distant mountains make the sound of rustling leaves, as if coming from the clouds and sky. The sound of the leaves of the windy tree, even though it was far away and there was the noise of the camp, was still heard by Shulot. He couldn't help but stop in front of the king's tent and look into the distance. He saw mountains and forests like the sea and clouds.

"There are tall trees on the rolling mountains, and ancient tribes are nurtured in the long and narrow valleys. The snake **** comes from the clouds, mates with the sacred birds on the sacred trees, and gives birth to the descendants of the gods in the clouds, which are passed down for four epochs until today!…"

Shulot had a leisurely look on his face, and in a priest's tone, he recited the Mixtec mythology in a low voice. At this moment, looking at the mountains and forests on both sides of the Yunzhong Valley, and watching the free flying birds circling the sky, he suddenly understood the origin of the Yunzhong myth and the reasons for the desperate resistance of the Yunzhong tribes.

"The Yunzhong tribes live in the mountains, rivers, forests and valleys, offering sacrifices to sacred birds and flying snakes, worshiping the cloud gods and rain gods, liking gorgeous clothes, and being good at gold and silver carvings. These ancient and stubborn people of the mountains and forests are just like the Chu people in the Warring States Period!... However, , the alliance is like Qin's march to the south, a three-pronged conquest of 100,000 troops, thunderous artillery to attack the city and destroy the stronghold. The clouds will be destroyed, the descendants of the gods will be cut off, and the sacrifices of the Chu people will inevitably be extinct!..."

Thinking of this, Shulot's expression remained unchanged, he shook his head slightly, turned around and walked into the deserted king's tent. He first took off the one-meter-long priest's feather crown, then took off the complicated priest's feather robe, and took off the heavy obsidian necklace. His whole body relaxed by twenty kilograms. At this moment, he lowered his hands and suddenly understood his grandfather.

"Phew! When my grandfather was the high priest, he wore the same heavy divine attire. I guess that's also the case!... Well, it's not just the priest's body that is covered by the divine attire? It also includes the face of the god!..."

Shulot lowered his head slightly and looked at himself in the basin. The young face was engraved with the priest's divine pattern, which concealed his age and made him look no longer young. And those sincere eyes gradually became calm, as if they had changed from a blazing flame to a calm sea. Their emotions were hidden, and they were so deep that it was difficult to see the bottom.

"In ten months, I changed from the military commander of the vassal to the divine priest of the alliance... I became like my grandfather, and I also walked on the path of my grandfather... At least, in the eyes of everyone, that's how it is! …”

Shulot stared at himself in the water, at the familiar yet unfamiliar face. He didn't speak, just thought silently in his heart, hiding all his emotions in his heart, just like he had been doing for the past few months. Yes, a full ten months have indeed passed since he returned to the lake capital.

During these ten months, he first stayed in the capital city in the lake. As one of the ministers, he was in charge of the craftsman camp in the capital and supervised the military logistics of the southern expedition. Whatever you do, you must leave traces. Soon, he conducted strict inspections and uncovered many nobles in the capital who had reached out. Then, he realized that the problem was not ordinary!

The world is constantly at war, and the profit from Mexico's military supplies is ten times greater. Especially the cloth-covered bronze armor and the powerful crossbow were completely priceless. The nobles who can reach out to the craftsman camp are not rootless little people behind them. If this matter is thoroughly investigated, it will not only offend the main buyers of military supplies, but also the nobles of the powerful city-states across the alliance. They will also dig out a large number of real sellers of military supplies, that is, the royal nobles of various branches in the capital, and even a group of royal family elders at the prince level!

These royal nobles marry each other, group together according to their clans, and hold actual power. Many nobles are the backbone of various legions directly under the royal family. Even the God King Avit was wary and unwilling to move lightly. Because if it is not handled properly, it will shake the foundation of one's own army and trigger a backlash from various royal forces...

After many considerations, Shulot still had no choice but to go to his uncle Kakamazin. After Kakamatsu shook his head helplessly and sighed, he leaked some information to the elders of each royal family, lowered his face and held secret discussions several times, and finally reached a consensus with the forces behind it.

Then, Shulot pressed the captured small nobles, a few typical hereditary nobles, and two royal nobles who could not be clean, to the small pyramid temple where the elder's remains were buried, and waved with his hands Tear sacrifice! …

This killing of the nobles established their authority, effectively purged the huge craftsman camp in the capital, and also sternly warned the nobles in charge of production. And he borrowed the name of the elder to entrust his dream, used the kindness of Uncle Kakamazin, and left some kindness to attack, and finally suppressed the grievances of the royal family and nobles to the point of barely suppressing them.

acceptable level.

"Governing a big country is like cooking shrimps, and governing a country is like walking on thin ice... These intertwined alliances of royal forces are much more difficult to handle than a kingdom in a lake with a blank piece of paper!"

"Of course, although there are internal constraints in the Mexica Alliance, they can still work towards the same place and launch a great war that satisfies the upper-class nobles and middle-class warriors to divert conflicts externally! The political struggle within the Alliance is much different than across the sea. The Ming Dynasty, North Korea and Japan are so simple that they are almost honest!"

Thinking of this, Shulot turned his head slightly and looked at the several volumes of Ali Sutra and Teachings in front of the desk. In one of the volumes, there are two cotton letters sandwiched between them. They are densely packed with small characters, and there are vaguely nautical charts.

The larger pieces of cotton among the two letters were written to him by Zuvarro, describing his exploration experience from the Far North to Kamchatka, and drawing a simplified estimate of the map. In many places, even if there are only a few words, it is still thrilling to watch Shulot, and I can imagine the extreme difficulty of the storm and heavy snow!

And it took more than a year for this secret letter of reply to reach him at the end of last year after traveling 20,000 miles by sea from the distant Kamchatka Peninsula!

"Arrived at the Kamchatka Peninsula, formed an alliance with the Yamabu tribe and sent troops, captured many deer tribes, and established a stronghold in the south of the peninsula..."

"More importantly, we captured a group of Japanese warriors and a group of Korean sailors! Among these people were a blacksmith, a shipwright, a horse breeder and three horses!..."

"Well, did the exploration and trade between Wagongoku Ezo and Kamchatka begin in this era? This seems to have gone beyond the scope of Shandan trade..."

When he first received the news, Shulot was excited for a long time, his brows filled with joy, and he almost broke the skill of the Ice Mountain God and the cold-faced sect's chief priest.

With the blessing of the Lord God, the Aleutian sea route to East Asia had a breakthrough in just three years. It was really beyond his expectation! And Zuvallo, who is proficient in foreign languages, has extraordinary courage, and is full of luck, is simply the number one contributor to the exploration of the Far North Route!

"Praise the Lord God! I want to reward the exploration fleet heavily! Once this extreme northern route is completed, East Asia's technology, products and talents can flow in continuously, rapidly accelerating the growth of American civilization. And by that time, the kingdom With the alliance's countless gold and silver, there is also a chance to really make a difference!…”

"The blacksmithing skills from the He Kingdom, the shipbuilding skills from North Korea, and the horse domestication from the Jurchens... Even if this long voyage is extremely dangerous and costly, even at the beginning, it is already full of rewards! …”

Regarding the Tang-style sailing ship that was said to be extremely fast, and the captured East Asian warriors and craftsmen, Shulot wanted to see it with his own eyes and ask about the news from the distant homeland in the East. It's a pity that he may not have this opportunity in a short period of time.

As for the smaller of the two letters, it came from Mikey the Knowledgeable, coming from the capital of the Lake Kingdom, and had a cover letter from Talea. The two emphasized the transformation of the Kingdom's Crocodile God Galley and the need to build a new extremely fast "Wind God Schooner", and suggested delaying the exploration of the southern continent until the new speedboat was built.

"The schooner can travel three or four times as fast as a galley! ... If it could be built, the long voyage on this northern route would be accelerated! ..."

After Shlott happily agreed, he gave Talaya full authority to take charge, and made the chief priest Mickey as his deputy. The old militiaman Chihuaco, as the captain of the Southern Exploration, counseled the shipbuilding affairs!

"Letter from Zuvalo... Enlightenment... Positioning around Avitt..."

Sorting through his memories again, Shulot stretched out his hand and washed it in the basin. The figure in the water shattered instantly, and faint traces of blood spread out. But when the water surface returned to calm, he was tinged with red in the water and could no longer be seen clearly.

Three months ago, Zuvalo's letter arrived at the foot of Shenshi City and the siege camp. At that time, the divine descendants of Shenshan City resisted tenaciously, and the Alliance legions repeatedly failed to attack the city, resulting in considerable losses. Avitt was very dissatisfied and appointed Shulot as a military judge to deal with the noble generals who were unsuccessful in attacking the city.

However, these powerful nobles who led the troops actually fought very bravely and were completely worthy of the Lord God and the God-King. Shuluo

If we kill them rashly, I am afraid that we will greatly offend the nobles and nobles in the army. Just at this time, Zuvalo's letter arrived, bringing Xilot the mysterious enlightenment from East Asia, and combined it with the actual situation of the Mexica Alliance...

Zuvalo's letter is not a secret, God King Avit has also read it. After reading it over and over again, the God King couldn't hold back his expression, and his face was full of shock and surprise! He had never thought that the vast expanse of ice and snow 20,000 miles to the west was still not the end of the world. And the west at the end of the world turns out to be a real continent, just like Shulot once predicted!

When the letter arrived, Avitt's eyes when he looked at Shulot changed obviously. Shulot, on the other hand, became more humble and low-key, more solemn and solemn, and more like his grandfather, restraining all unnecessary emotions. He also took this opportunity to take out the "Bagua Divine Flag" and "Yarrow Divination" and proposed the idea of "Divination to Determine Prison" to Avitt.

Because the situation of the Mexica Alliance is similar to that of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the nobles actually do not have a strong sense of identification with teaching French military law. However, the mysterious activities and divination prophecies passed down from ancient times are believed by the nobles from the bottom of their hearts. Only by implementing the "Judgement of the Lord God" and the "Divination Judgment" can the Mexica nobles, who are devout in gods, bow their heads and accept the results, and move their complaints away from the God-King and Military Judge.

Hearing such a proposal, Avitt pondered for a long time. It was not until he personally saw Shulot's "gossip" and "divination" that he showed a rare respect on his face and nodded in agreement. At this point, Shulot has found his place next to Avitt, a "magic stick" who truly performs great feats, and a "chief priest" of the Shenqi Sect who restrains and inspires military morale!

"In this southern expedition, Avit will unify all the southern tribes and establish the prestige of the divine king's conquest and unparalleled military exploits! I will not touch the military deployment, military strategy and offensive of the southern expedition, or all the military power of the east-route army. Not at all... But the safe position that truly belongs to me is the sect leader of divination, prayer and sacrifice. It is the divine power that affects the hearts of nobles and warriors! Over time, it is the long-term human heart..."

"Witness the Lord God! This position competes with the alliance's high priests, and the new yarrow divination will also take away the traditional divination power of the priests and elders. This is the crushing of the more mature divination system... but the pie of power is limited. , it is impossible to satisfy everyone! Between me, the Kingdom Priests behind me, and the High Priests in the capital, I am increasingly unable to make concessions... And with Avitt beside me, it is impossible for me to really get involved in the alliance's military affairs. We can only follow this path of the divine human heart, assist, accumulate, and wait patiently!…”

Shulot looked at the basin for the last time, and after looking at those calm and profound eyes for a while, a gentle and respectful smile gradually appeared on his face, as if he was wearing the most perfect divine face. Then, he turned around and walked towards the altar in the tent, stretched out his washed palms, and once again performed the ancient and new yarrow divination in front of the Bagua flag.

"This time, I will divine my own future...May the Lord God guide me, and may...the Pyramid of the Moon guide me!..."

Shulot paused and thought of something inexplicably. Afterwards, he recited the name of the main **** and recalled the Moon Pyramid in his memory. After pious sustenance, he finally picked up the sunflower straw and began the extremely solemn and serious six-line divination!

"Five, four, four, three times a few, one line is "Lao Yang"! "

"Five, four, four, three times a few, the second line is "Lao Yang"! "

"Five, eight, eight, a few at a time, three lines are "Shaoyang"! "

"Five, four, four, the fourth line is "Lao Yang" again! "

"Five, four, four, five lines are still "Lao Yang"! "

"Five, four, four, the last six lines are still "Lao Yang"! "

Shulot stared at the results of the divination with his eyes widened. The hexagram this time is very famous, very clear, and highly consistent with his situation! Even with his shallow attainments in Yi studies, he can clearly understand the meaning of the hexagrams and the relationship between this hexagram and the hexagram changes!

"This hexagram has six yangs, and the top and bottom are Qian hexagrams, which are the strongest and most yang 'Qian Wei Tian'"! "

"When Qian Yang reaches the extreme, the first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth lines all change, from Yang to Yin. That is the Qian Tian in the Shang Gua turning into Kun Earth.

, the lower hexagram Qian Tian turns into Gen earth...the upper hexagram Shang Kun and the lower hexagram Gen are the Qian hexagrams of "Dishan Qian"! Mountains are hidden under the earth, the only Qian hexagram in which all six lines are auspicious!..."

"Huh! The hexagram actually went from stem to humility, from the most rigid to the yang and went deep into the earth...'A strong dragon will have regrets, and it will not last long."...'A humble gentleman is humble enough to feed himself. "…"

"Lord God! Is this a warning and guidance from God? I understand..."

Shulot looked at the hexagrams and remained silent for a long time. He waved his hand to brush away the hexagrams and bowed his head in solemn worship.
