Super Chief

Chapter 230: Appalo

The name of this small tribe is "Appalu", which means "tribe of net fish" in Cherokee.

Obviously, this small tribe has a long history, and it can definitely be traced back to the time when the Cherokee lived near the Great Lake.

The fact is also true. This small tribe with a population of only 80 people used to be a small tribe separated from a large tribe living next to the Great Lake.

The Cherokee belonged to the Iroquois League, but more than three hundred years ago, I don’t know why it angered the very powerful Iroquois and the Delaware at that time. In the end, the Cherokees were killed by two The powerful tribes joined forces and drove out of the Great Lakes area.

Under the guidance of the High Priest of Kabru, the Cherokee began to move south and came to Monongahela in the depths of the Appalachian Mountains more than three hundred years ago.

Following in the footsteps of the tribes, there are many Cherokee tribes that have moved south from the Great Lakes area, and the Appalu tribe is one of the larger tribes.

However, when I lived in the Great Lakes region, the terrain and large lakes with abundant resources were enough to support many large tribes, but after moving south to the mountains, the large tribes of the Cherokee tribe were much less.

Because the terrain and output here are not suitable for large tribes with a large population. Therefore, the large tribes of the Cherokee have begun to disperse, and the Appalu tribe is one of them.

From the name of the Appalu tribe, it can be seen that this tribe used to mainly fish for a living. When living near the big lake, the vast lake was large enough for the Appalu tribe to enjoy fishing, but it moved south to Mozambique. After Nongahira, apart from mountains, there are mountains, not to mention large lakes, and even rivers are rare.

So the Appalu tribe immediately dispersed into more than a dozen small tribes, each looking for a suitable place for their lives in the depths of the Appalachian Mountains.

However, these scattered tribes are called Appalu tribes, and no one wants to throw away this tribal name that has been passed down for thousands of years.

The Appalu tribe located in the upper reaches of the Little Tennessee River is a small tribe that separated from the larger Appalu tribe that year.

The flow of the Little Tennessee River is abundant enough, so although the conditions here are somewhat difficult, it is enough to feed this small tribe of over 80 people.

However, the Appalu tribe is close to the boundary between the Cherokee and the Chekasha, and life here is still dangerous. Of course, the tribe is deep in the Great Smoky Mountains, with the Little Tennessee River to the west of the tribe as a barrier, and the people of the Appalu tribe are brave and good at fighting, and they are not afraid of the small group of Chekashas.

Anyway, after the Appalu tribe moved to this place, although they also experienced a sneak attack by the Chekasas, none of the Chekasas were able to take this small tribe.

Stone Bear learned about the Appalu tribe from the Mokaru tribe in the west, and found this small tribe.

The Mokaru tribe is a small tribe separated from the High Tree Tribe. Mokaru means "a place where bears are infested" in Cherokee. Because the Mokaru tribe is also in the depths of the Great Smoky Mountains, black bears and brown bears are often seen around the tribe, and that tribe is also a tribe rich in bear skins.

At first, Shixiong planned to find the most convenient way to Xiaohe tribe from the land, so he asked the tribes around Gaoshu tribe one by one, and then one by one found a way to Xiaohe tribe.

Fortunately, the Mokaru tribe is a tribe separated from the Gaoshu tribe, and it is considered a family with the Stone Bear. But the Appalu tribe and the tribes west of the Appalu tribe were all discovered by Stone Bear himself.

Because they belong to the Cherokee tribe, and the Appalu tribe also respects the Gaoshu tribe where the Kabulu sacrifices are located, the stone bears were warmly welcomed by the tribes when they first came to this tribe. For these small tribes, the Kabru sacrifice is legendary.

In the eyes of these small tribes, the high tree tribe where the High Priest Kabul belongs is not inferior to Monongahela's tribal royal court.

The stone bear is tall and sturdy, and he is also the guardian of the Kabulo High Priest. When he first came to the Appalu tribe, he would naturally receive a warm welcome.

Later, the stone bear rode back and forth twice between the Gaoshu tribe and the Xiaohe tribe. The compatriots of the Appalu tribe are also familiar with this tall and strong guardian.

The last time Shi Xiong came here, he didn't bring any gifts, but this time he brought some high spirits. That was the second batch of wine brewed by Momocao and a group of women in the past two months. The other horse carried a lot of such high-quality wine.

For these tribes who have helped themselves, the high wine that Stone Bear brought this time is a reward. Not only the Appalu tribe, but also the small tribes I passed by before.

When Stone Bear arrived at the Appalu tribe, although the sky was still bright, it was still more than 30 miles away from the next tribe. The mountain road is not easy to walk, if you continue to hurry, you will get to the tribe in the middle of the night.

Driving in the mountains at night is obviously not a good choice, so Shi Xiong decided to stay overnight in the Appalu tribe and continue on the road tomorrow.

However, when Stone Bear saw the Appalu tribe, he was a little shocked.

When Stone Bear traveled back and forth between Gaoshu and Xiaohe tribes, he used to live in the Appalu tribe for two nights~lightnovelpub.net~ He still likes this small tribe which is peaceful and quiet in the deep mountains.

However, the Apalu tribe in front of me is not as peaceful and tranquil as it used to be. The small wooden houses in the tribe have been burned down. A forest on the south side of the tribe has obviously just experienced a mountain fire, and many trees are only burned. The black trunk is gone.

"What's wrong? Could it be a wildfire?" With doubts, Shi Xiong ran into the Appalu tribe on horseback.

The sound of horses' hoofs alarmed the peaceful tribe resident. Many people walked out of the wooden house, each holding bone spears, bows and arrows and other weapons, and most of these people were wounded.

"What's wrong? Did the Chekashas attack this tribe again?" The doubts in Shixiong's heart became heavier. He pulled the reins and quickly lowered the horse.

People from the Appalu tribe have all seen stone bears. After seeing the man who came on horseback as the guardian of the Kabulu sacrifice, everyone put down their weapons, and some of them cried bitterly .

A person in his forties, Chi Luo half-upper body, with a wound that was obviously not clean, appeared in front of Shi Xiong. Shi Xiong is very familiar with this person, he is the leader of the Appalu tribe "Dashi".

Seeing the stone bear, Dashi was originally sadly connected and showed a bright smile, and then laughed and gave a big hug to the dismounted stone bear.

"Uncle, what's the matter? Did your tribe have been attacked by the Chekashas again?" After the hug, Shi Xiong frowned and asked.

Dashi shook his head, "Guardian of the High Priest Kabru, I'm a little bit ashamed to talk about this. Go, let's enter the house and say..."

PS: Bow to thank "Little Snake King K" 100 for the reward.
