golden scales

There are some roots in human nature that do not distinguish between nations and civilizations.

For example, lack of self-confidence in oneself, or comparisons.

Li Zhenxu took advantage of these two points, sat down again after Xiaolu's hand, and kept silent about what happened just now, as if it was an insignificant matter.

Of course, the Fanren would not just accept their heads and worship, asking Li Zhenxu to teach such complicated and beautiful sacrificial rituals.However, due to the inferiority complex and comparison that they are not aware of, a small seed has already taken root in the hearts of these fanboys.

When he arrived at this village outside Dadu Country, Li Zhenxu was in no hurry to hurry.

He stayed in this friendly village for several days, performed magical magic twice, and finally waited for the messenger of the belly king Alami.This is entirely because the word of mouth of Taoism has spread to Dadu Club, and Alami, the king of the sun, is tortured by "Ghost Sleeping", and wants to ask this Han Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts.

At this time, Chen Nianzu had no doubts in Daoist Li Zhenxu's supernatural powers, so he volunteered to prepare a magic weapon for Daoist Li.Li Zhenxu only saw Alami once, and he knew that the Fanzai King was actually suffering from liver depression, dampness and heat, so he had no energy all day long, drowsy, and was easily awakened by nightmares at night.

This is because the aborigines live in wetlands for a long time and like to eat raw and cold fruits and vegetables, so they are easily troubled by heat and humidity.As for liver stagnation and qi stagnation, there is another external stimulus.

This stimulus comes from the Hongyifan in the south.

In [-], after the Dutch were driven out of Penghu by the Ming army, Zeelandia City was built in Dayuan Yikun and began to serve as the center for ruling Taiwan.

In [-], Anthony Van Diemen, who was then the governor-general of Batavia, sent troops to expel the Spaniards from Jilong (Keelung) in the northern part of Taiwan Island, and changed the city of Santo Domingo built by the Spaniards to Antony Fort.

After the Dutch gained the two strongholds in the north and the south, they regarded themselves as the masters of the whole Taiwan and sent troops south to conquer the aboriginal tribes.Two years ago, in the 18th year of Chongzhen, [-] in the Christian calendar, the Dutch attacked the Dadu Kingdom and completely conquered the tribal alliance three months later.So far ruled the entire western part of Taiwan.

Aramizuo's humiliation was enough to induce him to fall ill.

He always felt that he was ashamed of his ancestors, so it was only natural that the "ancestors" would punish him in his dream.

For the doctors of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they were not too mediocre, they would not find it difficult to encounter such a disease.

Li Zhenxu knew it well.But he said in his mouth: "Sure enough, evil spirits are causing trouble. Please rest assured, the lord. When the disciples of the poor Taoist order send magic tools, we can do something to drive out the evil spirits."

The witches of the Dadu Kingdom do not have the concept of inviolability of theocracy. Simply because they have been unable to heal the king's ghost for a long time, they naturally hope that the Han wizards can help.

After Li Zhenxu moved to live in the Dadu Club, he unexpectedly discovered that there were other Han Chinese living here. He even heard that there were Han Chinese living in the Shalu Club in the north, and he had a deeper understanding of the people's livelihood on this island.

Chen Nianzu returned to the village and explained the cause and effect.He took Li Zhenxu's disciples to the Dadu Society, and it took seven days to come and go.

Li Zhenxu got a set of clothes, melted the medicine in water, and drew symbols with the medicine juice.When doing it, burn the talisman paper and immerse it in the prepared potion.Let the big belly king take it.With the help of psychological comfort and medicine, after seven days, the big belly king has improved, and he has no doubts about this Han Taoist priest.

This is an old skill of the Celestial Master. It has been used since the ancestor of the Celestial Master Zhang Daoling, and it will be able to deceive people in another 500 years.

Li Zhenxu's trick worked, and he struck while the iron was hot, performing the miracle of "knotting the banner".

The Taoist priests hang the banners on bamboo trees as high as three feet.The five flag legs at the bottom of the god flag sway with the wind.When Gao Gong casts spells, the five flag feet will form knots of different styles. According to these knots, it is judged which immortal is coming to the altar.This set of methods is much better than Fushui's treatment of diseases, and it can remain mysterious even under the camera, which is amazing, and it can deal with these people who are not even considered primitive religions.Naturally, it is easy to grasp.

Although the Dutch are also promoting Christianity on the island, it is thousands of times more difficult than Li Zhenxu.Because Christianity is a foreign religion, it is already very difficult to explain the teachings, not to mention that Christian teachings are contrary to the beliefs of the aborigines.However, Li Zhenxu is not "preaching", he is more like secretly stealing the right to interpret the beliefs of the aborigines.

Aboriginal people believe in their ancestors.Li Zhenxu taught them to set up tablets.

The aborigines believed in natural spirits, so Li Zhenxu erected statues for them.

The aborigines used human heads for sacrifices, and Li Zhenxu used flour to make steamed buns...

At least the taste of steamed buns is much better than that of human blood wine, and making steamed buns is always safer than asking people to "cook grass".In particular, the work of making steamed buns is undertaken by witches in the village community, which further weakens the power of men, which makes older grandmothers more willing to accept it.

Thanks to Gao Zhen's hard work, the Dadu Kingdom is full of trust and affection for the Ming Kingdom across the strait, and even begins to believe that the Han people and Taiwanese people are brothers in the same line.

At the beginning of October in the 20th year of Chongzhen, Fanzai King Alami set foot on the land outside the island for the first time on a large ship of the Ming army.

……

boom!

The Type [-] military artillery made a loud bang, and the huge projectile flew towards the target at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was a mound of soil as high as Zhang Xu.The moment the projectile hit the mound, the ground trembled slightly, and the entire thick mound was blasted with mud, almost flattened.

Arami, who had just learned to use the telescope, was so frightened that he almost dropped the telescope.The guard next to him gently supported him to make him feel at ease.

Fang Jiahong was in charge of entertaining the Fanzai King who came across the sea, so he naturally saw all this, and couldn't help but feel amused.

These barbarians have not yet entered the age of firearms, and the only iron weapons are dilapidated.In Fang Jiahong's view, it was quite a waste to use artillery and firecrackers to show the power of the Ming army.Let them see the salvo of bows and arrows and the forest of long knives, it should be enough to deter them.

"The red-haired barbarians are by no means a match for the Heavenly Soldiers." Gan Ziju Arami made a serious conclusion.

Fang Jiahong had heard of the Dutch's gun platoon tactics, which were similar to those of the Ming army, but their number of troops was a flaw.Even during the war with the Spaniards, there were no more than 5000 troops. The current total strength is only 200, and they are stationed in Zeelandia in the south and Fort Antony in the north.

Arami had witnessed the red-haired barbarian's platooning tactics with his own eyes, and he was overwhelmed by it. Seeing that the Han people also had this kind of tactics, which seemed to be stronger than the red barbarians, and there were more people, he was very excited.

"We will definitely sweep the Hongmao Yi and punish the profiteers. Let the islanders live a good life like the Han people." Fang Jiahong vowed.

It was the first time for Chen Nianzu to see officers and soldiers at such a young age, and he was even more excited, but his ears perked up when he heard that the officers and soldiers said that they would punish profiteers.Hope he can keep talking.

Seventy-eight out of ten Fujianese in Taiwan are profiteers.

The Han people exchanged salt, cloth, copperware, etc. with the aborigines for deerskin, venison, and fish.If someone really thinks that the Han merchants are at ease with the price difference of resale trade, they are undoubtedly very naive.In order to plunder higher profits, businessmen will do everything they can, shoddy and fake are common tricks.There are even some people who take advantage of their large number of people and strong soldiers to take them by force.

This is why some Han Chinese can live with the aborigines, while others treat them as enemies.

After hearing Fang Jiahong's assurance, Arami also swore to the ancestor spirit: "We will never become enemies with the Han people, and we will fight against the Hongyi people together!" He said again: "When will the heavenly soldiers plan to attack the Hongmaoyi?"

Fang Jiahong smiled and said: "At the beginning of next year. Before that, the army still needs some preparations. I wonder if Your Majesty can contact all ethnic groups in Taiwan for our army, and we will join in the grand event together!"

Alami had no problem with that.In his opinion, the Han people are more reliable than the Hongyi people, not to mention that the two races are still brothers who have been separated for thousands of years-at least they have black hair and black eyes.

However, the aboriginal villages living near Zeelandia do not think so.

The Hongyi people are "blue-eyed people" in their address, and some people call them "red-haired relatives".They believed that it was these Hongyi people who drove off the Han pirates.Free them from their slavery to bullying.

This is also related to the policy of the Dutch in Taiwan.

At first, the Dutch did not collect taxes from the aborigines, and they always provoked the relationship between the aborigines, letting them "make grass" with each other, and then win over one group and attack the other.Six years after the Madou Creek incident, that is, in [-], the Dutch retaliated against the Madou Society.There are [-] Newport Society fighters in its army.

"I heard that the Han people are coming!" Strange rumors circulated in the Xingang Society.

Rumors spread from the mouths of the aborigines to the ears of the Dutch governor, Mr. Overwater, as if they had grown wings.

Offwart joined the United East India Company in [-]. Before that, he was just a school teaching assistant without any business experience.After arriving in the Far East, his management skills were quickly discovered by the Governor General and he was stationed in Dejima.Served as the head of the Dutch embassy in Japan.

It was on Dejima that Ofwat learned to sell private goods and abducted a Japanese mistress.

Now, Ofwat sits by the pool in the backyard of the Zeelandia governor's office, wearing a silk-tailored shirt.Reading William's letters from Fuzhou in the sunshine.Most of the content of this letter is exaggerated praise for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, and the remaining half is about how graceful and polite the real nobles of the Ming Dynasty are.

As for the mission of this trip, Mr. Van Gogh only said: "The Ming Dynasty still has concerns about opening up the entire territory of Fujian, and the prohibition of Ming Dynasty ships from going to Manila makes the Ming people very unhappy."

"It's like a declaration of war." Ofwat recalled the uncomfortable rumor, and it seemed to be confirmed from this letter.

"But my dear, the ships of the Ming Dynasty have not stopped heading for the officers." The Japanese mistress with long black hair, like a cat raised by a wizard, quietly walked behind Offwat.

"I know an official, he won't give anyone a warning before he does it." Offwat said: "On the contrary, he is extracting information from our poor Mr. Van Gogh to test our determination to resist and the bottom line. Besides. , the official still needs to wait."

"Wait for what?"

Ps:

Ask for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets.Another thing, it's actually quite depressing to say it... Before publishing this article, I accidentally watched a short video of fireworks in Shanghai during the day. It was a Taiwanese named Gao who set off a lot of fireworks on the Huangpu River, and the environmental pollution caused was really shocking. .At the end of the short film, there was even a tweeter to thank the relevant departments and the audience...Xiao Tang just wanted to say that if you don’t protect your land, you will have nowhere to stand; if you don’t protect your air, you will not even be able to breathe. It is a luxury.No one who has lived in Shanghai, no matter how long or short it is, should not allow this kind of stupid behavior.
