    Chapter 87 [The Legend of the Golden City] Seeing Megalo's greeting, Lis ordered the Aris to stop the ship, and all sailors to rest, quietly waiting for dark before meeting Megalo.  The setting sun is gradually setting, and the sunset glows red in the sky and the Amazon River. Li Si and the others are now anchored at the mouth of the Amazon River.  When the stars covered the sky, all the sailors were called to rest and sleep. Li Si took Warren to the stern of the ship and waited quietly for Megalo to show up.  In a short time, Megalo poked his head out of the sea.  "You suddenly asked me to stop the ship today. What happened?" Li Si asked immediately when he saw Megalo showing up.  "Captain, I asked you to stop the boat today because the river you are going to enter is too mysterious and dangerous!" Megalo lowered his voice and said: "This river is difficult for us sea people to set foot on.  The creatures are very savage and cannot communicate at all." "Oh?" Li Si said in surprise. He knew that the Amazon River was dangerous and mysterious in his previous life. He didn't expect that even the sea tribe would find it difficult to set foot on it. What was so weird about the Amazon River?  Where?  "None of you have ever entered the Amazon River?" "Did you call it the Amazon River? It's a good name. I'm sure that as far as I can remember, no one has ever entered it and come out alive!" Megalo shook his head and said, suddenly  It seems like he remembered something again: "But, in the legend of Atlantis, a warrior once stepped into the Amazon River and returned safely, but except for him, no one else has ever come out of the Amazon River alive!" "I  We know there are many dangerous creatures in the Amazon River, but we should not have any problems if we drive the boat!" Li Si estimated based on his experience in his previous life.  "I don't know, but there are indeed many dangerous creatures in the water. They are very savage and like to appear in groups. There is one of the most dangerous catfish. They will parasitize on people and bite them into craters, leaving them in pain.  "They will die!" Megalo seemed to have thought of something, "They were completely transparent in the water and made no movement when swimming. Once, a very powerful tribesman was attacked by them when he stepped into the Amazon River, and was eventually bitten alive.  Die! " "It seems that the Amazon River is very dangerous, but I need to go into the Amazon River once. There is a reason why I have to go!" Although Li Si is worried about the dangerous creatures in the Amazon River, with the Aris there, Li Si believes that he can do it!  Arriving at the upper reaches of the Amazon River: "Megalo, you stay here and wait for me to come back!" "Okay, Captain! It is really not suitable for people from the Sea Tribe to enter the Amazon River." Megalo did not force it, he knew that they, the Sea Tribe,  Entering the Amazon River will definitely lead to death. "Can I see little Adala again?" "Yes, I'll give this to you! Just give it to me before dawn!" Li Si nodded and took it out of his backpack.  Mermaid heart.  The night passed very quietly. On the second day, when the sun just emerged from the horizon, Lis ordered the Aris to set sail and sail towards the Amazon River.  Megalo watched the Aris slowly move away, took out a crystal exactly like the one in Lis' hand and threw it on the seabed, then dived into the water and followed the Aris far behind.  In the Amazon jungle, there are many strange legends, the most famous of which is the legend of the Golden City. Another one is that the mythical Amazon female warrior is said to come from the Amazon forest, but no one has ever seen it.  The purpose of Li Si¡¯s trip is the Golden City. Legend has it that there is an ancient city hidden somewhere in South America, and the roads there are paved with gold and emeralds.  It is said that there is a famous Indian ceremony there, for which local residents are willing to give up their treasures.  Every newly crowned king has to go to the shores of Lake Guadavida for a coronation ceremony. In order to please the devil, his own gods and masters, he must give him gifts.  On the day of the coronation ceremony, the subjects tied a raft with reeds, decorated it beautifully, and placed four braziers on it.  Groups of Indians wearing feather crowns and earrings gathered on the shore, each holding a torch in his hand.  When the brazier on the raft began to smoke and emit bursts of aroma, the torches on the shore burned even brighter. At this time, the new king was stripped naked, smeared gold powder on his body, and sprinkled gold powder from head to toe.  He was carried onto the raft and a large pile of sacrifices was piled at his feet.  "Following the new king to the raft were his four courtiers. They also stripped naked one by one, wearing only feathers, gold crowns, and bracelets. Each of them had gifts.  As soon as the raft left the shore, the crowd on the shore played various musical instruments, sang and danced loudly.  They won't be quiet until the raft reaches the center of the lake.  The ¡°gilded man¡±, illuminated by the rising sun, threw gifts into the lake while praying.  The flag that had been flying throughout the ceremony was lowered.Later, the five people on the raft jumped into the water and swam to the shore.  At this time, people¡¯s shouts and music resounded on the shore, and everyone danced and drank to their heart¡¯s content.  Only then will the new king's power be officially recognized by all clansmen.  This is a legend about Muska culture. What Muska culture worships most is water.  The Muska people believe that gods live in the lake and that life begins and ends there. Bachue, the ancestor goddess of the Muska people, came out of the lake.  Therefore, it is not unreasonable to choose a lake as the location for the emperor's enthronement and coronation.  There is another story that King Muska¡¯s wife felt that her husband was cold to her, and when she was disappointed, she went to have an affair with his bodyguard.  When the king heard about this, he ordered the bodyguard to be killed, his body cut into small pieces, fried and served to his wife at a sumptuous banquet.  When the poor queen found out, she had no choice but to take her daughter and run away, and the two of them sank into the lake together.  The king regretted so much that he ordered to find the bodies of the mother and daughter, but only the daughter's was found.  That night, the wife entrusted a dream to the king, saying that she lived very happily with the lake god and did not want to go back.  In order to regain the love of his wife, the king decided to smear himself with gold powder every year and go down to the lake to send gifts to Muska¡¯s mistress.  Since then, every new king has to hold such a coronation ceremony in order to please the goddess of Baohu.  It is said that the ghost of the Queen sometimes appears on the lake and predicts people's future.  No matter what the legend is, in the past life, the Amazon Basin has attracted a large number of players and even nobles to hunt for treasures. During the crazy treasure hunting process, countless lives were buried in the dangerous Amazon jungle. This is a treasure land, but it is also a tomb.  However, no matter how many people searched, they could not find the legendary Golden City filled with gold and gems.  Li Si also came here to search in his previous life. He did not follow the route of others, but followed his feeling and found a direction to search. Unexpectedly, he accidentally found a bit of gold.  This time I came to the Amazon River Basin just for the Golden City.  In his previous life, Li Si discovered a pure gold Muska handicraft in the ruins of an abandoned temple. It was a golden canoe depicting the inauguration ceremony of King Muska. Li Si in his previous life had never figured out the mystery.  Going back in this life, Li Si wanted to try and see if he could find the legendary Golden City from a light boat.  ;
