《Rise of America 1620》Chapter 18: Lover in Emma's Eyes
Advertisement
The Hudson River basin is very long, flowing through Quebec in the north and into the sea near Manhattan in the south.
On both sides of the Hudson River, there is a dense primeval forest.
This forest is the natural breadbasket gifted by nature to the Mohican tribe.
It is home to dozens of animal species, as well as a variety of usable plant fungi.
In the seventeenth century, there was not so much heavy industry, and these natural resources were not destroyed.
The branches of the forest are already sprouting green buds, and spring makes everything in the forest look so vibrant.
Whoosh!
Buzz!
An American hare looking for the grass was nailed to the ground by a wooden arrow through its body. Due to its strong inertia, the arrow trembled for a while after piercing the hare's body and then slowly recovered.
Steven, dressed in the 17th-century European-style leather jacket and beaver fur coat, walked away and bent over to tie the hair, which was still twitching and stirring, to his waist.
"The "Hey hey, this trip out of the harvest is really not, can be described as a fruitful ah!
In his waist, in addition to the hare just bolted on, there are actually two colorful pheasants.
After coming to the Mohican tribe for a few months, Steven and the others have also learned a handful of accurate archery skills.
"Uncle is great!"
Emma looked at Steven with stars in her eyes after she saw his arrow pierce through the hare's body.
Steven was very arrogant and put the longbow behind his back, and said to the starry-eyed girl, "I can be very good, even if a black bear comes, I can kill it alone. The first thing that Steven did in front of the fans was to blow his brains out.
But Emma is very simple, she is the one.
Emma wore a green military coat and a pair of earthy yellow leather boots, very much in the style of the 1960s and 1970s of the 21st century.
"The pheasant in the 21st century would have cost a thousand dollars.
William swallowed his saliva and whispered to Steven.
"The chief means to hunt more, depending on the situation? He blinked a little.
"The wildlife is plentiful in this era, but there are no wildlife protection laws. As long as you can hunt, you can hunt as much as you want, even if you do hunt black bears, it does not matter.
In such an era William would not be so brain dead, to talk about wildlife protection laws.
As he said, the American continent in the 17th century was full of wild animals. As long as you can hunt then go hunting well, anyway, first consider the belly problem is not there.

The big thing is to wait until the future when you are strong, in the announcement of the order to let people do not do it.
Then again, today is not the time of the great development of hot weapons, the destruction of wildlife is actually after the eighteenth century.
Therefore, the seventeenth century is still too early to worry about this problem, that is more than 100 years.
Totally can be in this 100 years, do not have to think about these issues.
Steven smiled badly and nodded his head to show that he understood.
"We'll look for mushrooms around here, I've been looking for them here in past years. This is my secret, no one else is. Emma, the little girl, shared her secret with William.
Yes, little girl, Emma is the most mushroom-picking child in the clan in the past years. Their family never lacked mushrooms to eat because she had a secret, that is, she had a place to produce mushrooms.
A white mist rises in the forest, probably due to the melting of snow and ice when spring arrives. The fog was caused by the difference in temperature between the hot and cold air currents, and the early morning temperature.
The old trees were covered with green moss, and the soil underneath the trees, which were five or six people's hugs, had green plant shoots just emerging.
Some mushrooms filled the area.
"Haha, this is my secret mushroom garden, I will never go empty-handed every time. When she saw the fat mushrooms, little girl Emma ran away with a cheer and started picking them.
Emma put all the mushrooms she picked into her green army satchel and hummed a little Indian song happily.
Steven had four of his men take up the task of guarding the perimeter, while he was guarding William's side and never leaving.
The forest was a kilometer away from Mohican's camp, not too far and not too close. After all, in this era there is no car, you can only rely on the legs ah.
It's not long before there are cattle, horses, and sheep for sale in the Time Trader, so it will be much easier to buy a few horses.
Life now, for William to some places is really not very convenient.
William is used to all kinds of transportation and is very frustrated with the fact that he has to walk wherever he goes now.
Even a horse is also good ah.
Unfortunately, he also knows that the American continent does not produce horses.
Therefore, he said that this little dream, for the time being, can not be achieved.

In the 21st century, the western plains of the American continent were filled with wild horses, giving people the impression that there were many horses on the American continent, but this was actually a mistake.
Before the American continent was destroyed, there was no such animal as horses.
The answer to the question of why wild horses appeared on the American continent and developed in the tens of millions is that they eventually appeared in the mid-16th century when the horses carried by settlers or explorers fled or got separated during their conflicts with the Indians.
At their peak, there were more than 10 million wild horses, but that was in the mid-18th century.
Now it is only the early seventeenth century, so William also, if you want to count on it, you can only count on the time and space trader.
However, this requires investment and development ah.
This time and space trader is to die for money, no money to invest, then everything does not think.
Gu Gu!
Wow!
In the forest, from time to time came unknown bird calls, or some kind of flying bird the forest when flying, touching the sound of the leaves.
As the day progresses, the sun slowly rises. The sunlight finally dispersed the white fog and made the vision clear.
About 100 meters away from William, a small stream about five or six meters wide appeared there.
"I said the fog was so thick, but there was a creek in front of it. After seeing the stream that day, William turned to Steven and said.
The fog in the forest had been dispersed by the sunshine disc, but a light white mist was still rising above the stream because of the sunlight.
It's so refreshing, you can't see this kind of scenery in the 21st century, at least not in China.
William sighed.
"Brother, I've already picked a lot of mushrooms, I'll let mom make mushroom soup for you!
Emma, who had already picked a book bag full of mushrooms, ran away with great joy.
The little one's face was tinged with red, and her forehead was oozing with tiny beads of sweat.
It is possible that because William traveled in this era and became physically younger, Emma likes to call him brother.
The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
He is really not much older than Emma.
"I think Emma is the best mushroom picker in the Mohican tribe. I think Emma is the best mushroom picker in the Mohican tribe.", William said to Emma half-jokingly and half-complimenting her.
After hearing William's words, the smile on Emma's face got even bigger.
She slightly raised her face, pursed her pink mouth, and tilted her head, making a very proud face.
"I'm the kid who picks the most mushrooms every time, and none of them can beat me! Emma's tail went up when William complimented her.
Emma likes to chat with William, besides the fact that William has saved her life and that William is "good-looking" and comfortable, his sweet tongue also has a lot to do with it.
Basically, the Mohican tribe does not encourage or praise children in their education. No matter how well you do, the parents will just nod their heads.
This approach is sometimes very disappointing to children and even demotivates them.
William, on the other hand, is a 21st-century man.
His education and experiences are beyond the imagination of the Mohican tribesmen.
Although William has never been married and has never had children or experience raising children. But have not eaten pork is always seen the pig running it, after all, in the era of information explosion, more or less he also knows some of.
Therefore, he has a very different style of dealing with people.
This also makes the Mohican tribe, both adults and children, very fond of him.
Of course, everyone is also very sorry, because William is really an "ugly monster". If only he could have some tattoos on his face or be more angular ......
If William had Mohican these people's ideas, it is estimated that want to die of the heart have.
To, William now on his young look, but very satisfied.
When he was 15 or 16 years old, he was rated as a schoolboy with this look. When middle school to high school and even university, many schoolgirls are unable to resist his pursuit of him.
God pity to see, such a beautiful appearance, in the Mohican tribe was actually said to be "ugly" he was really sad.
But people's aesthetic sense is different, this can not be forced.
Just as Emma is a cute little girl in William's eyes, she is not called "ugly" by other children as well?
Emma walked and stood in front of William, who raised his hand and fiddled with her head, making the little girl pout and play with him.
In the forest, the sound of crisp laughter echoed ......
