Phillip felt a little aggrieved. Although he was good at messing around, it was hard to tell this time. After all, he was the one who suffered the loss, and he suffered a big loss!
"Whether it is the Huswold tribe or the Cherokee tribe, this matter cannot be settled like this! You must know that we are all God's people. The life of every white man is at least worth a hundred Indians. Your Majesty the Governor is very anger!"
As soon as these words came out, Opekan and others looked a little ugly and aggrieved.
But what Philip said was true. If one white person died, a hundred people must be killed to appease their anger. However, they were still hurt when he said it openly.
One tribe leader couldn't help but say: "Missionary Philip, I can understand the anger of the Governor, but this is a matter between you and the Tao tribe and has nothing to do with us. If the Governor cannot calm down his anger, please send troops to find him." Tao tribe, we promise not to help each other."
Opekan's eyes lit up: "Yes, the Tao tribe has been expelled from the tribal alliance by us a long time ago. This is not a war between us and the governor!"
Phillip opened his mouth, but said nothing with an ugly face.
Opekan and the others were secretly happy, yes, you are incapable of dealing with the Tao tribe blessed by the Sun God. That is because you are incompetent. What does it have to do with us?
Well done to the Tao tribe this time! Let us feel proud in front of white people.
Philip adjusted his mood and said, "Okay, let the Governor decide this matter. The Governor asked me to ask the chief, why did the Huswo tribe suddenly become so powerful? The man who claimed to be the Sun God and the Emperor Who is this man?"
Opekan shook his head.
"We haven't seen him, but we will go to Wild Wolf Valley soon. It is said that he will appear again tomorrow. This matter has been spread, and there is no need for me to hide it from you."
Philip was startled.
"Will he appear in Wild Wolf Valley again tomorrow?"
Opekan nodded.
Phillip was overjoyed. This was a very important piece of information, and he could finally go back and deliver it.
"Well, thank you for the great chief's candidness. I think your Excellency the Governor will feel the great chief's friendship when he knows this news."
"I have one last question. Your Excellency the Governor suspects that the Huswold tribe's firearms were purchased from the French and has already taken action against the Louis Trading Company. What do you think?"
Opekan's eyes flashed, he thought for a moment, and immediately understood what Philip meant. The governor wanted to unify his voice.
"I think the Governor is right. Although we had a pleasant transaction with the Governor, the price offered by Lewis Trading Company was too good. Some tribes, such as the Tao Tribe, could not stand the temptation and traded privately with Lewis Trading Company. This is also true. possible."
"Actually, not only Louis Trading Company, but other French trading firms also offered very good prices. However, for the sake of friendship with the Governor, we still refused to trade with the French. However, after all, it is a fair transaction, and I cannot restrain Tai Many tribes do not trade with the French, and I hope the missionaries and governors will explain it so that it will not affect our friendship."
Philip secretly scolded Opeikan for being shameless. He understood that Opeikan was negotiating terms according to the situation!
"Okay, I'll pass on the Warchief's opinion."
Philip got up and Opelkan saw him off.
At this moment, bang bang bang gunshots were heard outside.
The expressions of Phillip, Opekan and all the clan leaders changed greatly, and they all looked at Phillip.
Phillip was also confused and thought to himself: "Could it be that the guards brought here are causing trouble?"
Just when everyone was in shock, a young man walked in.
Phillip and others looked over and saw the man in silver armor stepping in proudly. Seeing Phillip's expression change, he quickly pulled out the musket on his back and pointed it at Phillip.
Phillip's face suddenly turned pale.
Opeikan and others also changed their expressions. They were shocked that this young man was the grass dog of the Tao tribe who had been here in the morning.
"stop!"
Opekan had to stand up. He could not let Philip die in Powhatan City, let alone let him die in front of him.
"Grass dog, this is Governor Ratcliffe's envoy, our guest and friend of Powhatan! Do you want to provoke a war between us and the British? Put away your muskets!"
The straw dog curled his lips, "The Sun God said that white people are not our friends, they are shameful and filthy! They have killed many of our people, and will kill more people in the future until we are completely wiped out!"
"The Sun God said that an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth must be repaid with blood. All white people can be eliminated!"
"I also act under the guidance of the gods."
Opekan was so angry that his liver ached. Every sentence he said was in the name of the Sun God. Does he still have me, the great chief, in his heart?
Philip was frightened. He was sent as an envoy because he knew the indigenous language. At this moment, he hurriedly shouted: "You can't kill me, I have no weapons, I am a missionary, I have seen the sun god, He didn’t kill me!”
The straw dog nodded and put away the musket. Although he no longer pointed it at Phillip, his finger was still on the trigger.
"I recognize you. Yesterday the Sun God cut off both of your ears."
Phillip breathed a huge sigh of relief.
"The chief, the most loyal servant of the Sun God, Jin Yan, the chief of the Tao tribe, is already outside. She has something to ask the chief and the chiefs. Please follow me out. As for the white man, go with him and follow the instructions of chief Jin Yan. Deal with it!"
"Okay, I'll go out and meet her!"
Opeikan snorted angrily and walked towards the door. Although Philip was unwilling, he had to follow Opeikan, and the other clan leaders also walked out together.
As soon as more than 20 people went out, they saw a dazzling pool of blood on the ground.
In a pool of blood, the two guards brought by Philip lay on the corpses. There were two teenagers in armor, stripping off the clothes of the two corpses.
There was also a young man carrying two muskets, which obviously belonged to the two white guards.
In addition, there were three teenagers, smiling and leading three horses.
Phillip's face twitched when he saw it, this was their horse too!
The square was crowded with thousands of people watching.
In front of the crowd, six armored boys were riding on horses, surrounding a beautiful girl.
Opekan and others knew that this girl must be Jin Yan, the new leader of the Tao tribe.
Philip was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but scream.
"Why are you killing our people for no reason? We are messengers! Not soldiers who come to fight!"
Jin Yan said coldly: "There is no reason. When you white people killed our people, did we ask why?"
Philip was speechless.
Jin Yan said: "Yesterday the benevolent Sun God punished you, but you disobeyed the God's will and still stayed on the God's land. Someone came, cut off his nose, and drove him away!"
"No! Oh, God, you can't do this!"
Philip turned pale with horror and shouted.
It's unsightly to have no ears, but if the nose is gone, it's really impossible to see people.
He grabbed Opekan's clothes and shouted loudly: "Great chief, stop her quickly, I am willing to give you a hundred bottles of wine."
He didn't care about anything and directly offered the price.
Opekan secretly scolded Philip for being a fool. Is it okay to shout about this kind of thing?
Regardless of whether it was public or private, he came forward, it was a matter of dignity.
The bison and turkey drew their steel knives and came towards Philip.
Opekan took a step forward and stood in front of Philip.
"Jin Yan, Philip is my guest, he brought peace, you can't do this."
The bison and turkey were intimidated by the chief's majesty, stopped and looked at Jin Yan.
