Start North America 1400: nation building

Chapter 282 [281] Get up!Aztec! !
As Snow Maiden's voice fell...

The dozen or so people in the cabin fell into silence again.

Zheng He and Wang Jinghong looked at each other with bitterness on each other's faces——

Today and tomorrow, insight into the future?
This is obviously more like a performance of "killing chickens to warn monkeys", but it is decorated with high-sounding words.

And for this scene, they seem to have known each other.

Isn't it exactly Daming's attitude towards the Southeast Asian countries?

Those who master the power of force have the right to speak, and what they say is followed by the law, and orders are prohibited.

Xuenv gave the instruction, but did not return to the co-pilot's seat, but said to Zhou Ruonan: "Hold the 'Holy Artifact of Light and Shadow', prepare to record."

Zhou Ruonan always carried the camera with him.

These days, I visited all parts of the old land of Africa, and also took countless valuable video materials.

After some manipulation, she successfully fixed the camera on the support frame of the cabin.

Zheng He and others paid attention quietly.

The eyes of each other kept meeting, and they were all guessing what kind of effect this "Holy Artifact of Light and Shadow" had, and wanted to explore the profound meaning of the magic weapon of the gods...

But they haven't waited for them to see why.

"Di-"

Xuenv pressed the cabin door activation switch, and suddenly the alarm sounded loudly in the cabin.

Whoa! !

The wind blew in violently.

Xuenv had already put on a pair of goggles in advance, and Zhou Ruonan was also prepared, narrowing her eyes.

As for Zheng He's dozen or so people, all of them turned pale with fright, although the strong wind could not rush them out of the cabin...

But when the hatch is opened, everyone is truly in the "high sky", and a few steps away is the abyss. If a person stumbles and falls, he will be crushed to pieces.

They could only lie on the ground, clasped their fingertips tightly, and kept curling up in a kneeling position, trying to retreat to a safe area.

at the same time.

Xuenv pulled down two safety rope buckles from the top of the cabin, and gave one to Zhou Ruonan, and she put it on with open arms.

The other way is to trap yourself.

Then he looked at the dozen or so people and shouted loudly: "Looking down at the earth from the realm of the sky, even in the Kingdom of God, is the grace that everyone can only dream of."

"Are you really going to hide behind and miss this hard-won blessing?"

Zheng He and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.

Several eunuchs could no longer control their defecation, and yellow soup dripped from their bodies again.

Zheng He's taste was also uncomfortable, but he was born in the army, he was tall and strong, and his quality was much higher than others.

He stood up tremblingly, trying to get closer.

Only then did Xue Nu turn to smile, and pulled off another safety line, and threw it over to him through the pulley on it: "Wear it on your body, and it is protected by the safety line, so you can't fall!"

Zheng He grabbed it, and after confirming that it was firm, he found a trace of stability in his heart, unlike kneeling on the ground and struggling to find a point of strength.

As a servant in the house, the ability to observe words and expressions has been refined.

He only took a few glances before he learned how to wear it. He put his arms through the safety line, put it on his back, and tightened the loose buckle again.

Wait until he walks up to Xue Nu step by step.

There was also some excitement in the crowd.

Xue Nu said: "There are ten more, who wants to come?"

Everyone looked at each other.

I am moved by Zheng He as an example, but the fear of heights mostly comes from biological instinct, and it cannot be resisted by courage alone.

First, two army commanders got up and received the safety cables one by one.

After Wang Jinghong saw it, he pushed the two young eunuchs beside him: "What are you waiting for? You can see Gao Tian, ​​and you can say that you will hear this wonderful scene in Long Live after you return to the court."

The faces of the two young guards turned pale, and they said in succession, "Master, I really can't stand up."

"Yeah, I can't move my legs, I don't feel anything anymore."

"Useless stuff." Wang Jinghong was angry. He and Zheng He were friendly on the surface, but they were also fighting secretly.

For example, all matters concerning the travel of Western missions were dominated by Zheng He;

But he was in charge of the construction of the treasure ship fleet, and his hard work even far surpassed that of Zheng He.

However, when it comes to rewards for meritorious deeds, those who lead the mission get more.

Now that Zheng He is standing still, if he doesn't do it, when he returns to court, Long Live asks about this situation, wouldn't he have nothing to say?

Wang Jinghong gritted his teeth and stood up.

When the safety rope was thrown, the two conductors helped him put it on, and praised: "Master Wang is so brave!"

Wang Jinghong squeezed out a miserable smile before coming to Zheng He's side step by step.

At this point, five people had gathered at the cabin door.

They were very well behaved, standing two steps away from Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan, not daring to get too close.

When they looked out of the cabin, they found that the height of the god's magic weapon they were riding on had dropped a lot, and the vegetation on the ground became clear.

Soon after, they saw the outlines of several big cities.

But the magic weapon of the gods didn't stop, it just flew over the city.

Zheng He and the others were full of doubts...

Didn't it mean that the states of the city-state alliance blasphemed the true God?

Why didn't the gods punish them?

Until half an hour later.

A huge city-state far beyond what everyone had seen before appeared in front of us——

"What is this big city?"

"Looking down from the high sky, its bustling scenery may be as large as my Ming Yingtian Mansion!!"

After half an hour of adaptation, the fear in their hearts has subsided.

And because of the grand scene of the giant city-state in front of him, he was deeply shocked.

Snow Maiden said: "This place is the city of Azka Pochalco;"

"The most powerful kingdom in the city-state alliance, Tepanix Kingdom."

"The lord of the country is called the master of this valley, enjoying the kingdoms of the valley, and the worship of millions of people."

"This man's name is Tzozomok..."

"It's a blasphemer!!"

The answer came out.

Zheng He and the others suddenly became excited...

They all know that the drama is here!

Even though this is a performance of killing chickens and monkeys, but before the sword is approaching, it does not prevent them from worshiping the power of the gods.

However, when Xue Nu's words fell behind, there was no follow-up.

Instead, the girl said: "This big city is as big as Ying Tian Mansion in Ming Dynasty? Where is Ying Tian Mansion?"

Everyone didn't dare to be negligent and said: "Yingtian Mansion is where the capital of the Ming Dynasty is located, and it is the capital of a country."

"As for the size..."

Zheng He couldn't do it right, so he turned to look at Wang Jinghong.

Wang Jinghong got the opportunity and wanted to show himself in front of the saintess and envoys.

He overlooked the whole picture of the big city, muttering words.

After a while, he discovered some problems: "Why are there no horses and carriages in this big city? The streets and alleys are also narrow..."

"At first glance, it seems to be comparable to the capital of the capital, but after careful observation, this place is about 'half' the size of my great Ming capital."

"But it's also amazing..."

"Saint, envoy of the gods, this is the fourth time we have visited the Western Ocean, and none of the countries we have seen can have the prosperity of this valley!"

"And such a big city is rare in the world."

After hearing this, Zhou Ruonan was amazed: "The capital of Tepanix is ​​only half the size of your Great Ming capital? How many people does your Great Ming capital have?"

Wang Jinghong held his head high and said, "A registered household is about 16, and a household can be counted as six to seven people. This calculation..."

He was about to give a number.

But Zhou Ruonan's lips moved a few times, and he said first: "Then count 6.5 people in a household, and the total number will be 500 people?!"

"There are millions of people in one city?"

Zhou Ruonan exclaimed again because of the answer he calculated.

But in front of his eyes, Zheng He and others were also dumbfounded, and Wang Jinghong even said: "God, envoy, how did you get the number so quickly?"

Zhou Ruonan said, "Is it difficult to apply the laws of mathematics?"

"Oh, yes, you don't know, this is one of the five mysteries bestowed by our lord, and everyone in the Kingdom of God must practice it!"

Everyone looked at each other in shock again.

Only a young child has such powerful numeracy skills, how many amazing talents are there in the Kingdom of God?
When they sigh.

H225 has come to the sky over Ayutthaya.

The Tepanix people on the streets were in a panic, because they recognized the origin of the sky vision——

"The true god, the true god descends."

I didn't realize the shouting, but I saw crowds bowing down again.

Beside Zheng He, a commander said: "It is true that there are no horses and carriages in this city, which is very strange."

Animal power is an important means of production at present.

All the countries they saw had cattle and horses, but when they suddenly came to the country of Tepanix, they did not see a large livestock, and the feeling of disobedience was instantly highlighted.

Zhou Ruonan revealed the truth again: "Whether it's the land of revelation, the land of salvation, or the far-sighted land further south..."

"There is no such animal as 'horse' in these three places."

"There are bison, but bison are hard to tame!"

"As you can see, even in the most powerful Tepanix country, there are no cattle, horses and vehicles, and labor transportation is dominated by slaves."

The answer amazed them.

"No horses? What about camels? Or donkeys!"

Zhou Ruonan shook his head: "Not at all, why should I lie to you about this? If so, why is there no Tepanix?"

This situation completely broke everyone's perception of the world.

A world without animal power makes it hard for them to imagine how people here can survive.

and……

"Without the strength of oxen and horses, how did such a huge city-state be built? With only manpower?"

"God……"

"Look at that..."

They exclaimed again.

In the center of the big city, a pyramid-shaped sacrificial platform stands.

"What is this tower? It is so lofty and huge!"

"Almost to the sky..."

"And on that high platform, there is actually a palace!"

"My Ming Dynasty has never had such a huge and lofty building!"

The architectural style of the city-state alliance is relatively primitive and rough, mostly piled with huge stones, but it can bring people the simplest and most direct sensory impact.

Wang Jinghong said: "It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable! What I saw on this trip is far more than what I got from the previous three trips..."

"I am afraid that only when the glazed pagoda of the Dabaoen Temple is completed, can we, Ming Dynasty, have a building that can surpass this high platform."

here.

The panic in everyone's hearts was completely gone.

Even the people at the back of the compressed engine room stood bowed and looked towards the portholes on both sides, hoping to see this exotic spectacle.

The sacred artifact of the gods flew over the city, and the people in the city were shocked.

But then, he went towards the high wall in the distance, gradually drifting away.

Seeing this scene, Zheng He and others were dumbfounded again.

"Dare to ask the saint, Nat..." Zheng He forgot the awkward name for a while, and changed his words again: "The monarch of this great country is a blasphemer, why are the gods..."

During the whole process, Xuenv didn't speak.

When his questioning sound fell, he confided again: "Since you are a blasphemer, why didn't my lord come down with divine punishment and destroy this great city?"

While Zheng He nodded, he kept glancing at the noble figure in the cockpit who was always turned away from the corner of his eyes.

Xue Nu chuckled, stared at them, and opened her mouth to send a proposition——

"In the future, are you willing to be punished by the god who destroys the world?"

Everyone's pupils were shocked——

"This……"

Xue Nu shook her head and said: "You may think that my lord and I are here to intimidate you with divine power."

"But in fact, this is enlightenment and grace."

"Only when you look at it with your heart and experience it, can you see through the falsehood and see the truth."

"certainly……"

"Whoever commits a crime will be judged!"

Say it.

Xuenv ignored them and continued to look down on the earth.

Zheng He and the others felt an inexplicable shame, and looked at each other frequently, wanting to understand the deep meaning...

Not for intimidation?And really a grace?
That is to say, Da Ming doesn't need to worry about the wrath of the gods, destroying Da Ming?

They were at a loss.

Some people wanted to ask a few times, but they didn't dare to act rashly.

Silence struck again, but this time it didn't last long.

Just because-

Fly over the valley plain, close to the mountains and rivers.

Under the mountain, there is a large lake.

And more importantly...

"A big city, actually floating in the lake?!"

The exclamation attracted everyone's attention.

Soon, they saw the outline of the big city on the island and the military towns gathered around the lake.

Although this city-state is not as good as the Tepanix I saw just now, it is also a giant city that has been seen along the way.

What's more, this huge city was built on a lake, and even if it relied on islands to become a force, the difficulty of its construction was unimaginable.

"The workmanship of the gods, this is really the workmanship of the gods!"

"How did the people here build such a huge city in the lake?"

"That high-walled dam is beyond human reach..."

When they saw the location of the city in the lake, they exclaimed again and again.

And even Zhou Ruonan was lost in a moment of hesitation.

She had seen the appearance of the city in the lake presented by the light and shadow sacrament in the Kingdom of God, and she was shocked and speechless.

But today, after witnessing the magnificent scenery of the city in the lake, I realize how powerful the city's architecture is.

With the current technological level of the Kingdom of God, it is far behind.

Beside Zheng He...

A commander in armor made a new discovery: "Master Zheng, Lord Wang, look quickly..."

"Outside this big city, it seems that there has just been a battle!"

"The road to the city bridge is already blood-stained, and there are countless corpses scattered all the way into the city."

"Is it because another country wants to occupy this giant city in the lake? So a war started?"

They are exclaiming.

Xue Nu's voice also followed, attracting everyone's attention——

"This giant city is Tenochtitlan, and it can also be called 'City in the Lake'!"

"The city in the lake was owned by the Aztecs..."

"But the Aztecs were cruel by nature. They regarded 'eating people' as glory, and they believed in false gods, so they offended the Lord God."

"However, my lord has sent many tribulations and trials to the Aztecs, in order to wash away their uncleanness and sins for the road of salvation..."

"Today is the final chapter of this ordeal..."

"My Lord hears the call of the Aztecs, and will answer them with equal glory—"

"Anyone who is moving towards balance must also look at balance!!"

……

at the same time.

City in the lake.

Blood and cruelty washed the whole city.

The army composed of various city-states easily captured the Aztecs who were once known for their force.

Countless people were massacred, and then they were deported to a place where they were detained.

Dead silence filled the city, and the faces of the Aztecs were lifeless. They stared blankly at the two to thirty people who were tied to the gallows on the high platform in the distance——

The former royal family, Izukoatel.

The elders and leaders of the clans.

as well as……

"His Royal Highness Loboda!"

"You betrayed your monarch, your father, and your kingdom and people!"

"Fornication with the Aztecs who violated God's punishment is a crime of blasphemy against the only true God in the world!"

offstage.

A young man shouted: "You are the blasphemers, you are!!"

"His Royal Highness Loboda has surrendered to our Lord Balance! I am the messenger of Balance, and I can testify!"

"If you dare to kill His Royal Highness Loboda, you have killed the people of Balance! Our Lord and God will definitely punish you!"

However, as soon as these voices fell, a group of soldiers subdued the man and gagged his mouth.

"Dedger..."

"How dare you?!"

Not far away, Qi Boche and others also roared, but what they encountered was the same treatment as Dedege.

On the stage.

A group of sergeant leaders frowned at each other.

They know that only the envoys of the balance cannot be harmed, but if Loboda really surrenders to the balance, he can also be a member of the envoys.

"Loboda is not something we can deal with. He should be escorted back to Tepanix, and the lord of the valley, Tzozomok, will personally issue it."

Everyone hit it off immediately, and then shifted their target to Izkoatl——

"Izkoatel!"

"I ask you, are you willing to lead your Aztecs to become our loyal slaves, and to work hard for generations to wash away your sins of God's punishment!"

"As long as you, the Aztecs, agree, we promise that we will never kill again!"

Tears glistened on Izkoatl's face.

It is both pain and unwillingness, and even more incomprehension;

He doesn't understand...

why!
The envoys of the gods have clearly arrived, and they have brought the prophecy of "something revealed by the gods".

Why are the Aztecs still in their current situation...

"Ah! Ah! Ah!!!"

Izkoatl roared hoarsely, the veins in his neck were bulging, as if he was shouting with the power of life——

"God! God!!!"

"Please watch your people, please watch!!"

"If the sins of the Aztecs cannot be forgiven, then please use the cruelest divine punishment to destroy us!"

"Instead of letting this despicable person's humiliation torture us..."

"I, the Aztec, am not afraid of death..."

"I'm just afraid that my spirit after death will lose balance in a blink of an eye; I'm lost outside the gate of rebirth!!!"

His hysteria stunned the Aztecs in the audience, and there were bursts of wailing...

Countless people imitated his appearance, looked up to the sky, and issued prayers!

around.

The soldiers of the various city-states laughed contemptuously at this scene——

"Is this the eagle of the valley, Aztec?"

"They are so cowardly! Vulnerable! They can only cry and scream..."

"Hahahaha!"

However, just when the contempt and ridicule were about to fill the air...

Distant sky.

Boom boom boom! ! !
A huge roar came from the clouds and the sky, getting closer, getting closer...

Until a black shadow penetrated the clouds and landed on the big city, causing an invisible sense of oppression to strike! !

Countless eyes, looking up at the sky.

It seems that in this instant, everyone travels through time and space, returning to more than two years ago——

The only true god in the world came.

The Aztecs of Tenochtitlan held a grand ceremony, and their monarchs sacrificed human blood to sacrifice to the gods.

However, their ignorance and ignorance offended the true god and brought the divine punishment of destruction! !

Everything seems to be repeating itself at this moment.

Nourishes—

The sharp and ear-piercing noise spread over the entire city, causing everyone's hearts to tremble.

And the next moment.

The profound and simple voice of the gods came;

"..."

"..."

"..."

At this moment, De Dege, who was bound, finally got his freedom. He also stared blankly at the sky.

But Oyer's urgent cry was heard not far away——

"God, what is God talking about?"

"Derdege, come on, tell us!"

Dedege still looked dull. Although he has started to practice the profound meaning of the law, there is still a long way to go before he can reach the "low level".

"I don't know, I..."

He was about to answer.

The voice of the gods in the sky changed suddenly, and became the "Valley language" they could understand——

"I, the only true God in the world;"

"The controller of all laws and order in the world, the lord of balance; at this moment, for you Aztecs, make the final judgment—"

"Today, I will wait for the end of the sharpening and testing for you!!"

"When I bestow my glorious grace;"

"Call out the name that is stored in your heart, the holy name that belongs to me!!"

"Get up!!"

"Aztecs!!"

"Get up!"

"A people begging for salvation!"

"stand up--"

"People who don't want to be slaves!"

"In your flesh and blood;"

"Build your... new path to my balance!"
