Chapter 162 (1/2)
Before the stone bear came to the gaoshu tribe, the most unpopular estimate of the whole gaoshu tribe was that there was no one else except rabbit mouth.
Born with a cleft lip, he became the devil's child in the eyes of tribal people. Even his parents ignored him for this reason.
Because of this reason, rabbit mouth almost starved to death because of no milk when he was a child. Thanks to the kabulu sacrifice of the previous generation and the kabulu sacrifice of this generation, Hongyun took good care of the little guy and fed him with corn porridge, so the little guy who was born with cleft lip survived.
But even though kabulu took good care of the rabbit's mouth, because of his natural harelip, almost all the people in the tribe didn't like him. In the ignorant and backward Indian tribes, this kind of unusual people are usually named one way or another by their clansmen. Anyway, they are not good names.
No matter what kabulu said, anyway, the poor little guy is not welcomed.
Poor rabbit mouth is not even qualified to attend his 12-year-old initiation ceremony. He doesn't even have a clan name. Rabbit mouth is the only name that accompanies him all the time.
And because of long-term malnutrition, the 13-year-old rabbit has a thin mouth, which is similar to that of an 8-year-old or 9-year-old.
What happened to the rabbit's mouth, even in modern times, is a real tragedy.
To say, the fate of rabbit mouth is not as good as that of stupid head. Although his brain is not easy to use, he still has an enviable physique. In addition, he has boundless strength. He is a good hand at fighting and hunting. So he was more comfortable in the longhair cattle tribe. At least he could eat enough.
Until the stone bear followed Gao Niu and they came to the gaoshu tribe, the rabbit's mouth took the stone bear's thigh decisively and became the little footman of the stone bear. It was a comfortable life.
So, in the current situation, the skinny rabbit mouth is the first to stand up for his boss!
Very simple, in the eyes of the rabbit mouth, the guardian is his God! He doesn't care about the chekasa or the vasichu, but if anyone dares not listen to the guardian, it's his rabbit mouth enemy, even his enemy!
All the clansmen listened to the words from the thin rabbit's mouth and were silent one by one.
No one can think of this usually timid and thin rabbit mouth, even dare to say such words on such occasions, but also look down on you, this saying is very heartbreaking, who do you think your rabbit mouth is?
However, no one can refute the rabbit's words.
At the beginning, Lieutenant Ferguson stood by to watch the excitement. Although he didn't understand what these people said, he also saw something. Originally, he wanted to stand up for his boss's platform, but he was preempted by the rabbit mouth.
However, Lieutenant Ferguson was the second one to step forward.
Although he can't speak Indian, his actions and expression show his attitude.
Fast horse and hard bone came panting from a distance. They had just gone to little salt mountain to get charcoal, because Lieutenant Ferguson planned to make his own black powder according to the formula given by stone bear.
When they came back, they saw such a scene.
The two brothers grabbed the little guy who usually mixed with them and asked about the situation. Then they gave the charcoal on their back to the little guy without hesitation. They walked out of the crowd together and stood beside the stone bear.
Gao Niu and Bobcat looked at the horse and the hard bone, sighed helplessly, turned and left here.
They are not fast horses and hard bones, they can follow the guardian without scruple. As the senior members of the former longmaoniu tribe, they are cautious in whatever they do after they come to gaoshu tribe. They have too many worries.
Red cloud took a look at his guardian, finally sighed helplessly, walked out of the crowd, and then stood beside the stone bear.
Hongyun's action made the people make a sound of discussion. The face of Li Lei and wolf's tail immediately became very ugly.
Stone bear saw red cloud coming, and no excited expression appeared, just nodded lightly, as if it was natural for kabulu to do so.
Some people stood up when they saw the red cloud, shook their heads slightly, and then stepped back a few steps away from the circle. Needless to say, these clansmen are all loyal supporters of Hongyun.
However, there are still some people who did not move, such as stone hammer, Li Lei, wolf tail and so on. These people are obviously people with deep hatred against the chekasa people.
Seeing this, the stone bear nodded secretly, and then said in a loud voice: ”leader Li Lei, uncle Shi Chui, and other people, I know you all bear great hatred. The chekasa people have brought you endless sorrow. The chekasa people have made us lose our loved ones. But that doesn't mean we're going to live in hatred. ”
”My mother, father and sister died under the butcher's knife of the chekasa people, which I still remember clearly. For me, I will not let go of the enemies who killed my relatives. However, injustice has its head and debt has its owner. We can't kill all the chekasa people with one stroke. There are good people among the chekasa people. ”
”Like the chekasa people standing behind me, they have never been involved in a battle with us Cherokees, and their hands are not stained with our Cherokee blood. On the contrary, in order to avoid war, they took the initiative to break away from the chekasa ethnic group and found a place far away from the battlefield to live in seclusion. Do you have the heart to kill such people? ”
The stone hammer said in a deep voice, ”guardian, since they are chekasa people, they are our enemies.”
The stone bear sighed and said to the old soldier, ”uncle, I know you hate the chekasa people. Your son and daughter died under the chekasa people's butcher's knife, but my relatives also died under the chekasa people's butcher's knife. I also hate the chekasa people who killed my relatives. However, we can't let hatred blind our eyes and interfere with our judgment in this way... ”
Before the stone bear finished his words, wolf tail said aloud, ”guardian, no matter what you say, we are going to kill these chekasa today to avenge our relatives!”
”Shut up The stone bear made a sudden drink at the wolf's tail, which made the wolf's tail tremble.
Immediately, the stone bear didn't pay attention to the wolf's tail, but continued to say to the stone hammer in a warm voice: ”uncle, do you believe me, big bear?”
Stone hammer looked at the stone bear's eyes, mouth opened, but finally nodded.
”Well, uncle shichui, since you believe me, I am here today to assure you and all the people that I will lead you to revenge in three years! As long as it's the chekasa whose hands are stained with the blood of our people, I won't let one go! I promise you will kill those chekasha whose hands are full of our people's blood! ”
