Thousands of years later, the tile-roofed houses in Daze Mountain are connected together, and the Kuwa people have become a unique scenery in Daze Mountain. Although there are few fertile fields on the mountain, a variety of food is grown, with the largest number of fruit groves, including sweet fruits in summer and red bananas in winter. In the grassy areas of the mountains, the tribesmen also raised cattle and sheep. However, thousands of years have passed, and Daze Mountain is much richer and more beautiful than it was back then. /p
Since the first generation of Kuwa people, no one has left the mountains. People still know that there are humans in the outside world, but the ancestral teachings say that their tribe came here to avoid war, and there are people from foreign countries outside the mountains. They They believe in the Kuwa Mountain God and believe that it is God's will to protect people living in Daze Mountain. /p
The only thing that remains unchanged is that women in the mountains still have no status at all. Because they cannot communicate with the outside world, marriages are also carried out among neighbors. Women were very rare at first, so they all had several different surnames. The dolls share a mother, but these dolls may marry each other after they become adults. Therefore, over the years, the Kuwa people are like the "Zhurong's son" in Gongdou that day, giving birth to more children but less surviving ones, and the children's The physical health of the children is getting worse from generation to generation. Gradually, the resources in Daze Mountain can no longer meet the children's growth needs. What they are most in need of is salt. /p
More than five hundred families are entrenched on the mountainside. On weekdays, all you can hear are the shouts of men, but never the noise of women. The women here can really stay in their houses all year round, working hard and without complaint. Although they are illiterate (In fact, the men are not very literate, because those thieves and men were gangsters and illiterate back then), but they are good at embroidery and weaving, their temperaments are too docile, and they are very diligent in taking care of things at home. /p
Women have three opportunities to chat together in a day, just after breakfast, lunch and dinner. However, according to the rules in the mountains, women cannot play because their sharp voices will anger Kuawa Mountain God, a group of ignorant mountain people. They have been "ruled" by the lies made up by those thieves for thousands of years. They have no ability to disbelieve because they have lived in the mountains from birth to death, and they have no basis for judging right from wrong. In their cognition, that The ruined temple a few feet high is the deity. /p
The group of girls finally showed up again. They gathered together after breakfast. Playing is a child's nature. Although they can't laugh and play like boys, girls can still secretly gather behind the house or in the forest to do some small things. Interesting things, such as hitting the back of the hand like a boy, or playing some "not too much" hide-and-seek. This small game may be the best memory that these girls can recall in the future, because after marriage, they will completely Lost freedom. /p
The two girls leaned together, and the eldest girl whispered: "Qingqing, I overheard my father and mother talking last night. My father seems to be going down the mountain."/p
"Why?" Qingqing girl looked horrified, "You don't want to risk your life. If you go down the mountain, you will be punished by God."/p
"Not only my father is going, but many uncles are also going. There is no salt in the mountains, and my brothers are getting weaker and weaker. Without salt, my father said that the brothers will not grow up." When the girl said this, Maybe she didn't realize that her own body was thinner and skinny than that of her so-called brother, that's probably what he looked like. /p
The girl Qingqing was so scared that her lips trembled slightly and she said, "No, God will be angry, and we will suffer retribution."/p
"My uncles have been kneeling down and worshiping the temple every day since two months ago. They must have obtained the permission of Kuawa Mountain God."/p
"It's so scary outside." Qingqing girl is really timid. /p
In just a few sticks of incense, the girls were about to go home. Their toys were just a few bright wild flowers on their heads. But before entering the house, they had to pick them off and throw them into the corner. If they were discovered, they would be Get a scolding. Girls do not feel that they are right. Under the influence of years of ideological influence, it has become a matter of course that men are superior to women, and even women are at the mercy of others. At most, when they are sad, they will secretly complain about why they are not men. /p
There is indeed no salt in the mountains, and the men have indeed chosen to go down the mountain. This is a big deal. They have been kneeling down to worship the temple two months ago, taking out all the good things from home, and slaughtering rare cattle and sheep. As tributes, these men are really afraid. The outside world is like a cannibalistic Black Sea. They believe that as long as they step out of the mountain, they will never come back. /p
Therefore, the men who came out of the mountain were all old men, and there was no strong man. They "relentlessly" got their wives pregnant within two months, gave themselves a root, and then gathered together as if they were willing to die generously, leaning on I shook my crutches and walked out of the mountain in fear. /p
This mountain road, only a few dozen feet away from where they lived, had not left their footprints in fifty or sixty years, but today, they walked up it. /p
What the people in the mountains never expected was that this group of men rushed back that day and brought several buckets of salt water. It turned out that thousands of years had passed and the troops stationed outside had long since disappeared, and wars had occurred countless times. The number has also changed many times. The old friends are gone, and there is another peaceful world outside. /p
It turns out that there is a small town standing at the foot of Daze Mountain. There are nearly 3,000 households in it, and the lofts are bustling with traffic. It looks like a prosperous scene. The reason why it is so prosperous is precisely because it is across the river on the other side. It is the Phoenix City, which is known as the golden land of this country. /p
When the old men from the mountains came down the mountain and met people from the outside world, they were so frightened that they trembled all over, as if they had seen a devil, so they could only hug each other to strengthen their courage. The people at the foot of the mountain were also surprised, wondering where these old men in tacky clothes came from. They looked like "savages". /p
The man called his companions, and more than a dozen cleanly dressed young men gathered around to look at the old people. One of them came up and asked, "Old man, where are you from?"/p
After thousands of years, the language will also change. The language of the people in the mountains is more like a strange dialect, but the meaning is completely different from the outside world, so they can't understand the young man's words at all, and it makes the old people feel that these guys are not human. , but the devil in the mouth of Kuawa Mountain God. /p
An old man fainted from fright, and the old people huddled together and trembled. After a long time, another old man shouted "salt", and all the old people continued to shout "salt". /p
But those young men didn't understand at all. At this time, a woman happened to pass by carrying two wooden buckets filled with brine. Women are not as "aware of themselves as humble" as women in the mountains. Although the outside world also emphasizes that men are superior to women, shrews are also common, and this woman happens to be a shrewish person. /p
The woman walked up to the old man with a bucket, put down the bucket, put her hands on her hips, and shouted in a loud voice: "You old men, where did you come from? You are shameless and dress like our little wives! Hahaha! ”/p
The old men in the mountains had never seen this formation before, and they were frightened on the spot. They didn't think it was a woman. It was clearly a bull, with big arms and a round waist, and its arms were thicker than the strongest young man in the mountains. /p
The old men were so frightened that they could not speak and could not understand what the woman was saying. The woman became a shepherd and drove the group of old men like sheep. The old men crawled on their hands and knees and fled. In the end, they were so frightened that they all started crying. , really like a child. /p
The woman raised her nose in disgust at the scene and opened her mouth to curse: "Ashe-picking bastard, why are you crying? Just pretend to be soft in front of me, shut up!" This howl shocked all the old men, and no one could Do not cry. When an old man shouted salt again, all the old men started shouting salt. /p
The woman got annoyed and threw the bucket over her. The old man was splashed all over his head. He smacked it in his mouth and found that it was salty. Then he lay down in front of the woman as if he was begging for help from the temple. Cry for salt water. The woman was startled, and quickly raised her skirt and stepped back. She lost all color on her face, and turned around to ask the young man for help in embarrassment. /p
Finally, the woman went home and brought several buckets of brine and gave them to the old men. /p
The old men took the buckets and ran into the mountains as if running for their lives, and disappeared after a while. But people outside finally knew that there were still savages living in the Daze Mountains, which had dangerous terrain, poor mountains and water. /p
The old men returned to the tribe and almost died from exhaustion. They were speechless and their faces turned red. After a long time, one of the leading old men cried: "There are monsters outside. They look very similar to us, but They don't speak our language, they speak monster language." This undoubtedly increased the fear of the tribesmen, and they all knelt down in front of the Kuowa Mountain Temple, begging the monsters not to come in. /p
After the old men returned home, without exception, they beat their wives and daughters for no reason. They were beaten until they cried and begged before they were satisfied. They were frightened by the woman outside. You need to beat your own woman to regain your dignity and confidence. /p
But the salt water quickly disappeared, and there was no salt in the mountains. In order to survive, the men once again decided to risk their lives and go down the mountain. It was still the old people who went out, but the number was much smaller than last time. In the outside world, many strange people, including poets and officials, gathered. They showed great curiosity about unknown things and waited for the savages to appear again. When the old people walked out of Daze Mountain again, The small town and nearby Phoenix were abuzz. /p
From then on, Daze Mountain was no longer isolated from the world, and gradually became known to the outside world. People outside were very friendly, giving them clothes and food, but everyone who wanted to find out what the Kuwa people were, was The Kuanwa people firmly refused. In the eyes of the Kuanwa people, they were still dealing with the devil. /p
Gradually, the young men were able to go down the mountain. They exchanged fruits from the mountain for salt and meat from the outside world. At the same time, they were always vigilant about their defenses. During their interactions, they learned about the existence of writing and that there were still things in the world. There are pigs and horses, and they even gradually become familiar with each other's language, and gradually understand that these devils outside may also be human beings, and they may be no different from the people outside, but there is one thing they cannot accept, that is, the women outside are not like She is a woman, not a "toy". /p
Nan Jue’s words: The story is indeed a bit long, but in order to explain it clearly, it is necessary to lay the groundwork. Nan Jue's "Xi'an Diary" has been online, and the editor has said that you can sign the contract directly. I am very happy and hope everyone will like it. /p
