In the land of Jingchu, the mountains are high, the forests are dense, the birds are chirping, the mountain wind is howling, and the empty valleys are quiet.
This is a holy place located in a corner, where there are simple people and ruthless people who play tricks on snakes, insects, rats and ants.
The Miao land is vast and vast. In this quiet land, bone flutes, wooden drums and various unique musical instruments tell the different customs of the Miao land.
The Miao territory has always been mysterious and colorful, and is often feared by uninformed people. In the eyes of outsiders, the Miao people are not good at farming. They breed wild beasts in the mountains for a long time, and deal with all kinds of poisons. It seems to be psychological and sensory factors. I always think that all Miao people have a mysterious color about them. They can kill people invisibly, or go on a killing spree at the slightest disagreement.
As for the facts, very few people have seen it. Most Miao people come out of Miao villages to exchange for things. The furs of wild beasts in the mountains and various medicines that are rare in the mountains can be exchanged for food. Outsiders’ understanding of Miao territory It was limited to this, because they did not dare to set foot in that mysterious mountain forest to find the rumored Miao village.
There are also many names for Miao territory in Chinese history. During the Tang Dynasty, it was a small border country surrounded by mountains and rivers. The Nanzhao Kingdom was mysterious and rarely had contact with it. Only a few special envoys in strange costumes went to see the emperor to pay tribute. Treasure, that's all.
During the Song Dynasty, this was the country of Dali with beautiful scenery and beautiful mountains and clear waters. No matter how turbulent the Central Plains was, Dali still retained its prosperity and was a rare pure land in the world.
It is a mysterious place, and many people want to uncover its mysterious veil, but most of them stop at the four words "Miaojiang Poison", as if Miaojiang Poison is the kind of existence that will lead to death if touched, and it has to be daunting.
Even though the people of the Miao territory have submitted to the rule of the imperial court since the founding of the Dalong Dynasty and dispatched resident officials, the officials of the Dalong Dynasty still rarely take the initiative to learn about this mysterious land and have contact with the Miao people. Only the elders who took the initiative to resolve disputes within the Miao village were met.
In name, the political affairs of the Miao territory are managed by officials sent by the Dalong Dynasty. In fact, various things in the Miao villages are handled by the elders and local chieftains of each village. They can report it to the government afterwards. Report it. If you don't want to report it, officials won't care too much. Anyway, most of the officials stationed in Jingchu of the Dragon Dynasty had the same idea. After the three-year term is up, they should leave this barbarian land as soon as possible.
It is true that in the eyes of outsiders, the land of Miao is synonymous with barbarians and Jingman. It is better to do less than to do more. Anyway, they will not take the initiative to contact that mysterious place and the mysterious poison.
The smart wind blew the notes of joy. Compared with the hard work of the outside world, it seemed that Miaojiang was the real paradise of returning to nature.
In the past, the three Miao residences were surrounded by the waves of Pengli on the left, the water of Dongting on the right, Wenshan Mountain to the south, and Hengshan Mountain to the north. It was the land of Miao territory. Dangerous mountains and rivers, poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, Miao territory has never been short of mystery. The phoenix was reborn in the ancient city, the Sun and Moon Sect in Jin Yong's masterpiece emerged here, and the Five Immortals Sect is world-famous for its art of controlling poison.
The Miao people are good at singing and dancing. The ancient Miao songs are melodious, the drums and dances are breathtaking, and there is a hint of unrestrained enthusiasm in their movements.
Miao girls are particularly passionate, they dare to love and hate, their thoughts are delicate and clear, and their bodies are covered with jingling silver ornaments.
The mountain flowers are delicate and the water is green, wild fairies and ghosts are everywhere, the girl is full of love and dreams, singing Altair and Vega a cappella.
Miao women are affectionate and eccentric, like a clear spring in the mountains. They all exude a pure and natural atmosphere. Brother and sister are the most touching.
Although the Miao people are collectively called the Miao people, they are not as peaceful as outsiders imagine. There are also disputes among the Miao people in this paradise. The Miao people have various ethnic groups such as long-skirt Miao, short-skirt Miao, red Miao, white Miao, and green Miao. Among the clans there were officials canonized by the imperial court, Miao Shuai, or Man Shuai. They are the leaders of various tribes, and they fight constantly for territory and resources.
The Miao people who originally relied on mountains and rivers gradually developed the idea of lordship and feudal private ownership due to the intervention of outsiders.
This is also one of the main causes of disputes between tribes.
In a wooden house built against the mountain, there is a young girl. No, looking at her black hair coiled behind her, it can be seen that she has regarded herself as a woman.
The girl has three thousand strands of black hair, and the young woman has one strand of hair tied up. This is the rule of the Han people. This is a very clear sign. As long as you see a woman with her hair tied up outside, it means that she has become a famous woman and is married to a master. Those men with fantasy will put away their evil thoughts. After all, colluding with a married woman is punishable by castration under the Dalong Law.
If a woman seduces a man, she will be plunged into a pig cage.
But there is an exception. There is a special rule in the laws of the Dalong Dynasty. Except for housewives, concubines in the family are interchangeable as long as the men agree. This is a kind of elegance and fashion in the eyes of the powerful people of the Dalong Dynasty. It is not uncommon for concubines to be sent to each other.
Even if those concubines were unwilling, there was nothing they could do. As concubines, their status was no better than that of maids and maids.
A colorful little snake coiled quietly on the wooden table. It shouldn't be called a little snake, because this snake seemed to have two tentacles on its head, which was quite weird.
The girl held her fragrant cheeks and looked out the window quietly, lost in thought. Sometimes she chuckled, and sometimes she sighed softly. When she laughed, the flowers were colorless, and when she sighed, everything was sad.
The girl tapped the viper's head with her finger: "Xiaolong, I don't know what Liulang is doing. According to the rules of the Han people, he should have already participated in the Qiu Wei of the imperial court. Although Liulang has not changed a lot, he is still just learning. He is a talented person who is many times, no, tens of thousands of times better than those well-dressed students. There is no man as charming and interesting as him in the world." As long as Liu Mingzhi is mentioned, Qinglian's face will change. She was glowing with dazzling energy, and seemed to have endless words to say. When she mentioned the word Liu Lang, there was an uncontrollable smile on her lips.
Xiaolong broke away from Qinglian's hand and circled back on the table, shaking his head and nodding for a while. It was quite mysterious. The snake's words were frightening, and a cold blue light shone on the snake's teeth.
Qinglian stood up and looked at Xiaolong happily: "You said you want me to go find Liu Lang?"
Xiaolong shook his body and spat out the snake letter quietly facing Qinglian.
"Forget it, Liu Lang is already married. Not only are we not famous, but I shouldn't destroy his family. He smiled really happily on the wedding day. He must love Sister Qi very much. Sister Qi is from a well-known family. My young lady, Liulang, is a representative of the wealthy gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are well-matched in the eyes of others. Qinglian is just a barbarian village girl in the eyes of the Han people, so who has the right to meet him."
Xiaolong anxiously circled the wooden table, while Snake kept vomiting and looked at his master.
Qinglian shook her head with a lonely look on her face, took out a piece of silk cloth from her arms, and opened it carefully. Inside was the jade pendant that Liu Mingzhi had lost, representing the identity of the Liu family.
Qinglian stroked the jade pendant carefully and smiled happily: "Xiaolong, Qinglian is contented to have it by my side."
"Qinglian?"
An old woman covered in silver jewelry came in carrying a wooden bowl, and looked at Qinglian who was quietly holding a jade pendant with a kind and distressed expression.
Qinglian came back to her senses in excitement and looked at the old woman who came in and quickly put the jade pendant into her arms: "Mom, why are you here?"
The old woman put the wooden bowl on the table: "My grandma stewed a tonic for you. Your body needs nutrition very much now. You can't be careless."
"Thank you, mom."
The old woman looked at Qinglian with a sad face, touched her head and sighed softly.
Qinglian picked up the medicine bowl and was about to drink it all in one gulp. Xiaolong knocked over the medicine bowl in Qinglian's hand with a sharp shot, and then spit out the snake letter at the woman.
Qinglian was stunned, and her expression changed when she saw the medicinal soup spilled on the ground. She dipped some medicinal soup with her index finger and put it under her nose and smelled: "Musk, red flowers!"
Qinglian half sat on the ground and looked at the old lady with tears in her eyes: "Mom, you are so cruel!"
