Chapter 343 I'm happy when I talk about flirting with you
Chapter 343: I feel happy when I tease you
In the dry season, the Nanla River meanders through the lush rainforest. It is green, quiet, beautiful and gentle, which is very refreshing for the lungs.
He Huan said: "This is the last tributary of the Nanla River and the Lancang River in our country. After the Nanla River merges into the Lancang River, it is called the Mekong River."
"oh!"
"The Nanla River is the mother river of Mengla. Legend has it that the Buddha went to Banna along the Lancang River. When he passed here, people offered tea. When the Buddha drank enough, he poured the remaining tea down and it became this river. So the Nanla River is also
It's called Tea River.
Mengla is a famous tea-producing area with five famous mountains. The most famous one is Yiwu. Today we will not talk about tea, but about rivers. In addition to Nanla River, Mengla also has Nanxing River, Nanrun River, Nanbang River and Pumpkin River.
…”
"Hahaha……"
"When we talked about the Lancang River, we said that the word "nan" is different from the word "nan" in the southeast, northwest and northwest. So when you see a river that starts with "nan", you don't think it is in the south. Here, everywhere is called "nan".
"Hahaha……"
"What does the word "nan" mean in Dai language?" He Huan looked at the tourists.
"river!"
"Yes! Nan refers to water as well as rivers. In fact, the rivers in the south and the rivers in the south we are talking about today are already Chinese place names. Because Nan already means river. When translated seriously, Nan La River, how can it be
Not Helahe?"
The tourists burst out laughing.
"Including Manna Umbrella Village, Manjiang Village, Manpa Village, and Manfen Village along the river. Translated, it means Cunana Umbrella Village, Cunjiang Village, Cunpa Village..."
The boat is about to capsize.
The rhythm of the boatman's paddle was disrupted. Yujia also couldn't laugh or cry.
He Huan said seriously, "Yes, this is the magical place name in Banna!"
Everyone couldn't stop laughing.
He Huan looked at Yu Jia and said, "Let's ask Director Yu to introduce you to which village you are from?"
"Cunlongcun." Yujia said.
The tourists laughed.
He Huanxiao looked at Director Yu, "Director Yu's home is in Manlong. This dragon is written like this!" He Huan wrote on his mobile phone, "It is also a variant of dragon, derived from the very ancient dragon seal script. You guys
If you like two-dimensional culture, you should see this word more often in Japanese comics."
A group of two-dimensional young people nodded.
"In fact, it is also a word passed down from our country and retained by the island nation."
"Wow!"
Everyone has gained knowledge again!
"In other places, it is written with the current character dragon, but in Yunzhou this character has been largely preserved as a place name."
Director Yu smiled and nodded, "Little Bailong is really rich in knowledge!"
After talking about the word "long", He Huan continued: "Manlong, it should be the villagers group of Longlin, right?"
Director Yu smiled and said: "Xiao Bailong, I really wonder if you have stepped on it?"
He Huan guessed that she almost asked him, a roadie, why he was so familiar with place names! He smiled and said, "Longlin, it is more than just a place name. In fact, in Banna, every village has a Dragon Forest."
Director Yu smiled and nodded.
"At this point, we have to talk about the water culture of the Dai people." He Huan said, "We said on the way that the Meng culture is based on water culture, which is the initial culture of the Dai people."
Everyone nodded.
"It is recorded in the epic of the Dai people that water gave birth to all things, and their ancestors created human beings with water. The Dai people's proverb says: Without a river, a country cannot be built. Without forests and the foot of mountains, a village cannot be built.
Therefore, small dams are formed in the valleys along the river basin, which are the Man of the Dai people and the Meng of the Dai people. When building a village, there is Zhailong Forest, and when building a village, there is Menglong Forest.
The Beiye Jing, which records the history and culture of the Dai people, says: Where there are forests, there is water, where there is water, there are fields, where there are fields, there is grain, and where there is grain, there are people.
The Dai people have known for a long time that the forest protects the water source. Protecting the forest means protecting the water source and protecting yourself. Therefore, their temples worship the water god, and there are water officials who specialize in managing water sources.
There are village rules and regulations on how to use water. No trees in Longlin can be cut down, no fruits can be picked, and there is no hunting or grazing. Longlin is the sacred forest of the Dai people.
This set of water culture has successfully maintained the ecological environment of Banna. Before the 1950s, it could fully meet the life and production of local people. There was no need to build reservoirs, and all water came from nature.
The forest coverage rate in Banna has always been maintained at more than 70%. Then there was great development, large-scale production, and a large number of people moved in, which is said to be a branch.
But with more people, more desires and greater goals, people are no longer satisfied with the long process of conservation and recycling of nature, and begin to destroy trees and forests.
The people who immigrated did not have this awareness of water culture. Moreover, there were production targets, so they cut down forests in large quantities and planted economic crops. The new culture impacted the water culture. When local farmers saw this, they also began to cut down forests and plant economic crops.
crop.
The rubber in Banna is basically planted by educated youth, and Banna has become the second largest rubber producing area in the country after Hainan. At the same time as the economy developed, in the 1980s, the forest coverage rate in Banna dropped rapidly to 30%."
"Ah!" Everyone looked at both sides of the strait, "I see there are quite a lot of trees!"
"Yes!" He Huan said, "This is what you see now. A decade or two ago, there were no forests on these flat dams along the river. They were all cut down and replaced with cash crops.
There is not enough water, what should we do? Build a large number of reservoirs! Pump underground water! But this is a kind of behavior that kills the goose that lays eggs, leading to an increasing shortage of water resources.
Everyone has gradually become aware of environmental problems, and has planted a large number of trees and prohibited deforestation. Now the forest coverage rate has finally returned to 60%."
Everyone looked at the lush rainforests on both sides of the Nanla River. Fortunately, they were slowly recovering.
The Nanla River flows quietly and quietly, reflecting the green forests on both sides of the river. Tourists bend over and take a dip in the cool water.
He Huan looked at them and said, "You might as well jump down and take a shower."
Everyone poured water on him.
He Huan raised his arm to block it, "I'm serious! Because of their love and worship of water, the Dai people are also called Shui Dai. Compared with other ethnic minorities, the Dai people especially love bathing.
After a day's work, I took a bath in a river and chatted while I was washing. You flirted with me and I flirted with you, and we flirted together."
"Hahaha……"
"I'll make you happy as soon as I tease you."
"Hahaha……"
"After both of us are clean, we walk toward the green mist together."
"Hahaha……"
"I see if you laugh again, you will fall into the green water together!"
The tourists then sat down and became quieter.
"In addition to being responsible for Dai people's daily life, festivals, weddings, funerals, sacrifices and other important events, rivers also play a role in social communication. The social place in the north is Bathangzi, and the social place of Dai people is Bathing River!"
The tourists started laughing again.
"Unlike now, everyone has access to tap water and takes a shower at home. We can only rely on mobile phones to chat, and we can only rely on blind dates to fall in love."
"Hahaha……"
"That's right! Nowadays, in various chat software, you can send a notification to Moments for dating or marriage. Now, if you lose a person's contact information, you have lost that person, and you have no idea what he is doing!
In the past, could you resist not taking a bath? No! Dai people like to take a bath the most! At least once a day! Sometimes several times a day! If you have nothing to do, go to the river and take a bath! As long as you come out to take a bath, I will catch you!"
The tourists were laughing so hard that the boat was about to capsize.
Yujia also kept laughing.
The boatman wanted to jump into the river and take a bath, but luckily he had already docked.
