СКАЧАТЬ future Indian. Once your skin is tanned and peeled off, you cannot burn again. That is, you will develop immunity to the Fiery Eye of the Great Manitou, but you still have to protect your head.

      – «Hanukkah, answer me. When you went to the places of Komaria, what did you see besides the plants»? – Mamuka asked the lying dog.

      – «I saw how birds jump around the garden and crush the necessary plants»!

      – «And what did you do»?

      – «I chased them and drove them away»! – the dog said proudly.

      – «You’re done, but you yourself also crumpled the plants and therefore the giants were not happy, listen to me further», – Mamuka said and, sitting down more comfortably, began to read the book aloud.

      In addition to growing plants, Komaria is home to many magical creatures. Ants are one of its inhabitants. Who would have thought that this little insect was magical? If these insects are running near your home, then this is fortunately. This is the ancient omen of the Mamuka Indians. Ants are very strong creatures. Despite their small size, they lift fifty times their weight. Therefore, it is one of the most powerful beings on Earth. I, Mamuka, would never be able to lift fifty myself at a time, another thing is to raise my weight fifty times in a row.

      An anthill is the home of ants. They have a real queen. It is easy to distinguish her from an ordinary worker. It has a pair of wings behind it. Sometimes you can confuse the queen with another creature. The male ant also has wings, but it is smaller in size. Ants bite with their mandibles or mandibles. When enlarged, the mandibles look like forceps. When bitten, they close. A forest anthill can reach the height of a giant.

      As soon as the sunbeam begins to shine, the ants run out of their home and begin their work on the street. Komaria never fights with these hard workers. They are her allies. As soon as the first drop of rain hits the ground, ants begin to cover the entrances to the anthill. Therefore, near their place in the dwelling, you can find small heaps before the rain. They fill the entrances with them. Ants can also anticipate bad weather, so rain can be predicted. The main thing is not to confuse this with preparing for the night. At sunset, all the inhabitants of the anthill rush to their home. They rest as much as people do. They have a real kingdom, only hidden from prying eyes.

      The Indians of Brazil have a whole rite of initiation of boys with the help of this insect. For this, an ant is taken and placed on the hand of the future red-skinned man. Redskins are also Indians, as some giants call them. The purpose of the initiation rite is to increase the immunity to pain. As soon as the ant bites the boy, he must not show that he is hurt. After that, you can take him with you on reconnaissance to the war with Iramok. An ant bite is believed to be beneficial. Ant’s mandibles contain useful substances that increase the immunity of a person or an Indian. The main thing is not to anger these insects, and they will not touch you.

      – «I know, I was bitten by these ants! I immediately began to gnaw them»! – Hanukkah sighed.

      – «So, you have not yet passed your ritual and have not become a real Indian», – answered Mamuka.

      – «Why endure this sore bite»? – the dog asked.

      – «In order to understand what your pain threshold is».

      – «Threshold? But the threshold is at the door, below», – Hanukkah was surprised.

      – «Listen to me carefully, now I’ll read it to you», – Mamuka said and sighed.

      The pain threshold for each Indian is different. This does not mean that someone is stronger or weaker. The ant is small, but it is the most powerful creature on earth. It’s almost the same here. A small mosquito bite can hurt and make you cry. But this is not an indicator of strength. It’s just that the Indian’s body is not prepared for this. The largest pain threshold in my memory was the Wasp’s Sting Indian. While the brave Indian was eating a watermelon, Iramoka’s cunning ally, the striped wasp, flew up and stung the guy. He didn’t even blink an eye. A huge red pimple with a sting grew on his shoulder. Imagine, he couldn’t even lift a watermelon over his head! And when the evil Giant didn’t give him one more «skibble» of watermelon, he began to cry. He just felt hurt, but this is not an indicator of strength.

      – «I also feel offended when they do not give one more bone»! – said Hanukkah, silently looking at the Indian with the book.

      – «My four-legged friend, no matter how much you feed, there will still be little. You do not know the measure»! – answered Mamuka.

      – «How can I not know the measure»?

      – «Your belly is not that huge, but the Giant has it! Listen further, now I’ll read you more about ants».

      You can also bite off the ass of a forest ant. It tastes sour, but healthy. It contains formic acid.

      Important: only forest ants are allowed to bite, because they are clean.

      Some birds specially sit on the anthill and begin to wallow in it. Angry ants start running around dirty or sore spots on the bird – this is called anting. This is how birds take care of their feathers and get rid of ticks.

      – «I remember how one bit me»! – said Hanukkah.

      – «If not for the Giant, you would have walked with him».

      – «It’s not true, I would have chewed it off myself».

      – Never: do not gnaw, do not scratch, do not tear off a tick!

      – How do I understand that this is a tick? – asked Hanukkah in surprise.

      – The tick cannot be confused with anyone. It painlessly, imperceptibly digs into the skin and becomes like a dark mole. It is necessary to immediately run to Giantania and tell its inhabitants that you have noticed a tick. Its movement through the body resembles a breath of breeze.

      There are many inhabitants in Komaria, you will learn about this from this book. Now we already know that the creatures are allies of the Indians and their enemies. We boldly classify ants as allies, and Iramoka’s allies: mosquitoes, large mosquitoes, wasps and ticks. Other creatures will be written later. Since you completed the previous tasks, you should go through the ritual of initiation into real Indians.

      Quest from Mamuka: Rite of passage

      Now it will be a little unpleasant. You should go outside and find the ant. Feel free to put your hand in front of him and wait for him to climb up to you. After that, do not let it fall to the ground. Wait for the bite. If you restrained yourself and did not curl your face, endured the pain, then return the insect back where you took it. Otherwise, the creature will get lost, and the ants will run to look for it. If it hurts too much, then your test is yet to come. Wait a little and repeat the initiation ceremony again in a week.

      When you accept Indians into your tribe, be sure to make sure that everyone goes through this Indian initiation ritual. The one who cries from the bite, the whole tribe protects and saves from fights, СКАЧАТЬ
