Chapter 808: The Aborigines of the New World
The subordinates were tired and tired of the "Aboriginal Exploration Journey" - Mu De was very clear about this matter.
Because Mu De himself was also a little tired and tired of the "Indigenous Exploration Journey" that would end at some point.
People traveling through mountains and rivers on distant strange lands, with a mentality and good health, will feel physically and mentally exhausted.
Their ships have been repaired long ago, and food and drinking water have been stocked. If they want to return, they can set off and return at any time.
A large part of the reason why Mude insisted on finding new residents in the New World was that Mude's curiosity and spirit of adventure were at work.
Not all people are so hot in searching for the Aboriginal people of the New World like Mude.
Many of Mude's soldiers were indifferent to finding the aboriginal people of the New World.
In their eyes, whether they can find the indigenous people of this new continent has nothing to do with whether they can return to China safely. They just want to go home early.
It is precisely because of this mentality that many people's exploration of the indigenous people has become increasingly negative.
Mude cannot turn a blind eye to his subordinates' psychology.
So, after hearing that even Blaise was complaining that he was exhausted physically and mentally, Mude began to ponder.
After a while, Mu De closed the notepad in his hand and sighed softly:
"Okay, then look for another 2 days."
"Blaise, you will notify your subordinates later: Let's look for two more days. If we can't find the indigenous people of the New World in two days, we will return the same way and set off to return home."
After hearing Mude's words, Blaze was a little stunned:
"Search for another 2 days?"
"Yes." Mu De nodded with a bitter look on his face, "Many people's morale is very low now and they don't want to find any indigenous people anymore."
"If this continues, they might be mutiny."
"…It's true." Blaise sighed, "Okay, I'll inform you now."
"Well, let me know again by the way: we will rest for another 5 minutes, and we will continue to set off in 5 minutes."
...
...
Mude and Blaze walked side by side at the front of the line.
The two waved their knight swords, and while removing the dense weeds on their way, they chatted blankly.
"Mud." Blaze struggled to cut off a tall weed in front of him, and continued, "You said - is the footprint we saw before not a human footprint?"
"Not human footprints? How is that possible? Are you old and not even your eyes working? No matter how you look at it, they are all human footprints, right?"
"Mude, we can't use the common sense of our 'old continent' to measure this 'new continent'."
Mude and Blaize were both 60-year-olds. The fact that they were like now made Blaize feel breathless.
So Blaze stopped his work a little, and then continued:
"Mu De, murmured and forgot? This 'New World' has many animals and plants that our 'Old World' does not have."
"That footprint may be left behind by some animal on this 'New World' that we didn't have on the 'Old World'."
"Or else - why did we search for that footprint as the center of the circle for so long, but we couldn't find traces of humanity?"
"..." After hearing Blaze's words, Mude became silent.
Mude has to admit that Blaze’s words just now are not unreasonable.
There are too many animals and plants on this "New World" that their "Old World" does not have, such as kangaroos and giraffes.
The footprint they found before was left behind by some kind of animal that they did not have in the Old World - it was not impossible to happen.
"Oh..." Mu De sighed, "No matter whether the footprint was left by an animal or not, we will look for it for another 2 days. If we still can't find the indigenous people in two days, we will go home."
"However, I still tend to be that footprint was left by humans."
"The reason why we were unable to find traces of humans is simply because we were not lucky."
"I have lived for so long and have a deep understanding, that is, you will never know which one will come first, surprise or tomorrow."
"For me, the greatest joy of living is that I never know what will happen next."
Speaking of this, Mude paused.
Then he changed into a half-joking tone:
"Maybe in the next moment, the indigenous people suddenly appear..."
Woo--!
Before Mude could finish his words, an animal scream suddenly rang out, interrupting Mude's words.
Mude heard that this was the scream of a wild boar.
And after the sound of the wild boar sounded, there were a series of shouts.
This is the shout of human beings!
Listening to the sound of getting closer and closer, Mude and Blaze both turned their heads and looked at each other.
The two of them were full of surprise and surprise at this moment.
Mude's reaction was faster than Blaise, and he took the lead in coming back from his shock.
Mu De waved to his subordinates behind him: "Scatter! All disperse! Everyone is ready for battle!"
As Mu De's command fell, the soldiers behind him scattered and hid behind the surrounding trees and other shelters.
While hiding in the shelter of trees and other bunkers, they also quietly prepared for the battle.
The man holding a spear and a sword wiped the sweat from his hands and tightened the weapons in his hands.
The person holding the bow will pull the strings on the arrow, and the person holding the crossbow will pull the strings on the crossbow and put the index finger on the trigger.
Everyone, including Mude and Blaze, held their breath and looked at the origin of the series of sounds with all their concentration.
The screams of wild boars and the shouts of humans are getting closer and closer to them, and Mude and their hearts are also beating faster and faster.
Finally - a wild boar appeared from the woods not far away.
There are a lot of arrows inserted into this wild boar.
But judging from the state of this wild boar, the power of these arrows is very small, and it only caused some skin trauma to the wild boar.
Not only did it fail to cause huge damage to the wild boar, it also angered the wild boar.
After the wild boar appeared from the woods, a large group of humans in strange costumes rushed out of the woods with various weapons.
These humans who rushed out of the woods were not wearing shoes, and were wearing clothes woven from animal skins and bird feathers, and there were a lot of colorful liquids like oil on their faces.
The humans were holding guns, bows and arrows and other weapons in their hands. While shouting, they tried hard to surround the wild boar. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to want to hunt the wild boar.
Looking at the group of humans in strange costumes, Mude and Blaze looked at each other in a tacit understanding again.
