Harry Potter’s Morning Light
Chapter 472: Aurora Hunter
Chapter 472 Aurora Hunter
The British Museum mainly uses cultural relics, or stolen goods, to record the historical development of human civilization. After so many years, Pomona still seems to be able to smell the smell of gunpowder and blood in the air.
Whether it is oriental porcelain or Egyptian mummies, the statues of the Greek gods cut into "meat pieces" in the Parthenon are better able to show the essence of these cultural treasures-the spoils, the primitive tribes are fighting for animals. Corpses, they can be eaten into the stomach as food, and those stones cannot be eaten, but they can be used as a show off capital to satisfy the vanity of the imperialists. They just want to express that I won and you lost.
In the first school year, Slytherin was already leading with 472 points. Later, Albus Dumbledore madly gave Gryffindor extra points, which turned things around. At first, Slytherin cheered, and then Gryffindor cheered. Slytherin's expression was beyond words.
In the second school year, the relationship between Slytherin and Gryffindor deteriorated drastically. Before Harry Potter came, Slytherin was the champion of the Academy Cup and Quidditch Cup every year. Harry Potter turned upside down and won. Become a loser, let people get angry and unconvinced, just want to use violence to fight a good lesson to the lucky guy.
Fighting in groups is not a nobleman. The duel club makes the little snakes eager to try. This is a great opportunity to finally hit the scar head under the witness of the teacher. If you do, you don’t need to be confined. Where can you find such a good thing.
Violence cannot solve all problems, but it is sometimes needed. Scotland is different from England and has a martial spirit. The English people are not only hated by all Europeans and Chinese, but also by Irish and Scots. Their enemies are even in the Arctic Circle. The Newt people were tortured by them.
The Inuit belong to the Arctic type of Mongolian race, and their physical characteristics are similar to those of North Asians. The skin is mostly light yellowish brown, often with "Mongolian spots"; the hair is thick black, slightly wavy, and the eyes are brown. According to legend, their ancestors were about four. It moved from north-central Asia to both sides of the Bering Strait 5,000 years ago, and then gradually spread eastward.
The period when Western whites entered the Inuit living quarters on a large scale was a period when European capitalist industries were thriving and developing rapidly. In order to obtain a large amount of industrial raw materials, these countries sent many people to explore and find treasures around the world, continuously expand their colonies, and search for local resources. From 1600 to 1800, white people who came to Inuit settlements were generally friendly. One of the reasons is that if they want to survive in this extremely cold land, they must learn the way of life of the Inuit and obtain food and other tools from the Inuit.
Inuit people live in the Arctic Circle, and in some places there are even polar days and nights. The sun does not set in summer and the sun does not rise in winter. The aurora is regarded as one of the most beautiful spectacles in nature, but it is more fresh. As soon as I felt that the explorers resumed their original purpose.
In the early days, the white people who came here wanted to find precious minerals such as gold and silver on this land, but they got nothing. For people who want to make a fortune, they are unwilling to return empty-handed. Later, they finally discovered that the most practical treasure of the Arctic is the abundant wildlife resources.
In order to capture huge profits, the whites killed almost all the cetaceans in the North Atlantic waters. Then he sailed through the waves and sailed to the Arctic Ocean. The whalers used the most advanced ships of the time and were equipped with modern whaling equipment. Thanks to whaling guns and artillery, thousands of whales are killed every year.
The whaling team that came here often hired Inuit to hunt reindeer and other wild animals for them. Since the Inuit do not understand the situation in the white society, and they have no money awareness, let alone how much profit the whalers will make, so the whalers can hire Inuit for a very small amount of money. They act as guides and hunters. Sometimes the whaling team didn't pay the hired Inuit for several weeks. Sometimes it just provided them with some whale meat, which they thought was not fresh enough and was ready to be thrown away.
The Inuit, who know nothing about the outside world, are very satisfied with this. The Inuit were very happy with what they could get from the white people, and quickly accepted all this. Of course, it is easier to make fire with matches than with flint. Iron cooking utensils boil water and cook much faster than stone cooking utensils. And more Inuit want to get guns and bullets. They deeply appreciate the power of guns and bullets when hunting. It usually takes a whole day to kill a male with traditional tools such as spears and arrows. Musk ox, and it only takes an instant to solve the problem when used to recover.
At the beginning of the 20th century, whaling activities in the Inuit settlements had ended. But the fur traders who followed immediately filled the vacancy of the whalers, and they brought more good things, so the Inuit people exchanged their precious furs for these things one after another. Fur traders love the skins of polar bears, seals and arctic foxes the most. Armed with modern weapons, the Inuit used rifles to shoot polar bears and seals with ease and gained a lot. However, the target of the Arctic fox is too small, and the body is white in winter, which is not easy to capture. Therefore, the Inuit used the method of setting up traps to capture the arctic fox.
There are many legends of foxes in the East. The most famous one is the nine-tailed fox. In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it is said that the place where the nine-tailed fox appears represents a good harvest and rich products.
In the past, the Inuit used stones or ice cubes to make tongs. Such tongs were neither easy to use nor strong. The ice cubes would melt in hot weather, which was far inferior to the iron tongs provided by fur traders.
Winter is the best time to hunt arctic foxes. At this time, the fox fur is thick and soft. Arctic fox fur is the most popular at the Paris Fashion Show and can be sold at a good price. As a result, more and more Inuit hunting targets are turning to Arctic foxes. They hunted as many Arctic foxes in winter as possible in exchange for iron clips, bullets, guns and other supplies.
With the arrival of white businessmen, various Christian organizations in European countries and the United States have also sent missionaries to Inuit settlements to preach preaching, encouraging and persuading the Inuit to become Christians. Facing the powerful material temptation, the wizards quickly succumbed, and the Inuit quickly changed from a primitive religion to a Christian belief. A large number of Inuit have become Christians and pray religiously every day, at least on the surface. But deep down in their hearts, they did not really give up their ancient beliefs. While praying with the missionaries, they also placed the various gods they were familiar with on the same position as God.
In the mid-1920s, the Inuit territories belonged to Denmark, the Soviet Union, the United States, and Canada. At first, the governments of various countries were indifferent to the Inuit, and did not consider providing them with food, housing, medical equipment, etc. When the primitive way of life of the Inuit was violently assaulted by modern civilization, it caused them to starve and die more.
The life order of the Inuit was destroyed by white foreigners. The white people and the Inuit killed almost all the huntable animals with bullets together. In exchange for bullets and other items, many Inuit people gave up the hunting season in front of them and went to catch the prey the merchants needed. The fur merchant left the Arctic, leaving the Inuit with an irreparable tragedy.
A group of Canadian Inuit living in the western plains of Hudson Bay. Almost all their food depends on reindeer. The fur traders who came here at that time asked them to catch the Arctic fox and exchange the fox fur for food and other daily necessities. Hunter Ohato said: "I clearly remember that one winter, the merchants told us that they needed a lot of fox fur. They looked so impatient that we gave up our plan to hunt reindeer in the fall and tried our best to catch Arctic foxes. This was able to exchange food with the whites for the food needed in the winter. But when we trek to the southern whites' residence with fox fur in the middle of winter, we found that their igloo’s wooden door was open and the whites had left here. The house was empty. Boxes, no food or bullets, we can’t hunt. I hope I can forget this story, but my first wife and two children starved to death that winter, and I can’t forget this nightmare anyway. . Not only do I spend the winter alone in hunger and loneliness, and sad for the dead relatives, but the other people in the village are just like me. Only one-fifth of the people in the village live until the next spring."
White people like to play genocide. Before the arrival of the white people, most Inuit people died of hunting accidents, starvation, wars, and food poisoning. They rarely died of diseases. Later, various diseases brought by white people became the main reason for Inuit's illness and death, because they had no resistance to this and no basic medical facilities. There is an island in the Canadian Arctic. All the Salmit Inuit who lived here died between 1902 and 1903. Diseases not only cause death, but also make more people disabled and lose their labor force. But they are a bit better than the Indians, so that no one would wrap the smallpox virus-stained blankets on the Indian babies under the guise of sending warmth.
Such a backward civilization could not give the white colonists anything to display. Only some masks and soapstone crafts were put in the stone age exhibition hall.
"I have read an explorer's diary. There is a very interesting story in it." After telling a long unpleasant story, Iris began to change the subject. "In the legend of the Inuit, some creatures will Turning into a human form, a tribal wizard said to the explorer that there was a hunter who had no wife and could only deal with the prey by himself. One day he saw a white fox near his residence. It was obviously I was very hungry. The hunter was just a person. He wanted to keep a life for himself, so he adopted the little fox. Whenever the hunter ate meat, he gave it the bones. Later, the little fox grew up. One day the hunter got up and found it was missing. After looking around for a long time, he didn’t find it. When he gave up and went home, he found a girl standing at the door of his igloo. She was very beautiful and still She had black and long hair, so the hunter took her home and asked her to be his wife. When they were lying down and chatting, he suddenly found that the girl’s teeth were broken, so he asked when he was strange. Why did she, the girl said, hate it, it's all because of you. I used to eat bones for me. The hunter found it very strange. Then the girl stood up suddenly and left the igloo without looking back."
"Did she wear clothes?" Pomona couldn't help but ask. The North Pole won't freeze to death when she ran out without clothes.
Iris smiled and shook his head. "It was not written in the diary. When the girl ran out, the hunter followed him. The footprints on the snow were very clear. At first the footprints were human, and then it became an animal, girl. Gone, there is only an arctic fox at the end of the footprints."
Pomona stopped wandering.
"Animagus."
"It sounds like that. I heard that there are many legends of fox fairies and snake fairies in China. Maybe it's not that animals become humans, but humans become animals. The girl in the Inuit legend maintains A few years of animal form, not as long as Pete Pediru has maintained for twelve years."
"Can you lend me that expedition diary?" Pomona took Iris by the arm and continued to wander the museum.
"Of course, it was written by a wizard." Iris said politely. "If it were a Muggle diary, it wouldn't be so interesting. I wrote about it and hunted a few whales. You can earn How much is it, and when can I go home early."
"You don't like Muggles?"
"If the Yellowstone volcano erupts, it is estimated that the refugees will migrate along Alaska to Asia like the Inuit. The Russians will certainly not let them pass easily. The most promising places for them to land are Japan and North Korea, during the U.S.-North Korea war. During the period I heard that MacArthur was going to bomb the supply line of the Chinese army supporting North Korea with an atomic bomb, which was later terminated by the U.S. Congress. Do you know why?"
"Because they expected such a day." Pomona said with a sneer.
"Inuits are known for their hospitality and friendliness. Their houses are generally happy to welcome others to live in, and they can go as long as they want. If there are guests, even strangers passing by, everyone will rush to entertain guests. When a certain hunter returns with a full load, he will walk all over the village and invite everyone out loud, so people come in groups and eat, drink, sing, dance, and tell stories very happily. The same goes for the Indians, to the early white colonists. Warm hospitality, yellow race people have this kind of hospitality and kindness. If they take a boat back to the Western world, they will not be treated warmly and even be turned away, even if these immigrants from the New World were once residents of their own country. "Iris sighed." The same kind knows best. The atom bomb dropped is to completely become an enemy with the East, without any relief. MacArthur is just a general. What he cares about is the victory of a local war. He can't see it. For longer-term development, those who oppose MacArthur’s plan should leave a place for the people to stay. 100% of the volcano will erupt. It’s just a matter of time."
"Do you think the Chinese will accept American refugees?"
"Unless the Americans put down their guns before entering the Chinese border, that country prohibits guns and narcotics, and marijuana is also a drug." Iris shrugged. "Many Chinese are similar to the Puritans. Americans are used to freedom. They probably can't stand that day. Yes, the Chinese are not Inuit people. They had learned from the Korean War in the 1950s. Volunteers fighting in wars are desperate. They are simply terrible."
