Chapter 351: Are You Brothers?

Chapter 351 Are they brothers?

When the tourists saw that the little white dragon was surrounded with enthusiasm, they all stood aside obediently.

Little Bailong went to the Botanical Garden and the Sky-Watching Tree. Now both the Botanical Garden and the Sky-Watching Tree are attracting widespread attention. The Botanical Garden is okay and a must-see attraction for tourists. But the dancing grass attracted a lot of people to check in.

Wangtianshu used to be far away, and it was very expensive for individual tourists to charter a bus, and the fare for group tours was also expensive. But because Xiaobailong’s lectures were so interesting, as soon as group tours resumed today, many tourists asked for more tickets.

It is rare for tourists to take the initiative to ask for extra points. Especially for such scenic spots that are far away and require high self-expenses. There are also many private tourists who charter buses there. Compared to yesterday, where there was only a few people, today’s Wangtianshu buses are all full.

It’s so hot!

Although the original forest park is located in the urban area, it is relatively niche. In Banna, there are forest parks in the city, but because there are too many forests in Banna, each with its own characteristics, many people ignore the urban forest park.

So they developed many entertainment projects to attract tourists.

But no matter how attractive they are, nothing is as attractive as the little white dragon! Just as they were envious of the Wangtian Tree, the little white dragon suddenly came to their little-known scenic spot, so they were extremely excited.

He Huan looked at the overly excited group of people and saw that they had never been to a scenic spot and all the leaders were dispatched.

Looking at them like looking at the God of Wealth, He Huan said: "I decided to come over and watch the peacocks fly."

“We still have a lot of performances here!”

"I know, it's mainly because I'm in a hurry."

"Then let's go have dinner. It's just noon." Several people grabbed He Huan.

"Thank you very much, but I have already made a reservation at the restaurant. After dinner, we are going to Nannuo Mountain."

A few people had no choice but to nod regretfully, "Xiao Bailong, you should tell me earlier next time you come, and then leave after just coming to play for a while."

He Huan was embarrassed, "Actually, you can take a nice stroll in the Forest Park if you have time."

"Yeah!" Several people became happy again, surrounded Xiao Bailong and sent them out.

The Little White Dragon Group followed with smiles on their faces. The Little White Dragon Group traveled in official cars. Everywhere they went, they were treated like an inspection group and received a grand reception.

When they arrived at the door, several leaders held He Huan's hand and said, "Xiao Bailong, you must come to our place next time you come to Banna! We can also play here all day!"

He Huan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will definitely spend a good day shopping next time I come here."

They reluctantly let go.

Watch the little white dragon group get on the bus.

As the car drove out, the tourists turned around and said, "Little Bailong! You are a man like the wind! They are still looking at the butt of our car eagerly!"

He Huan was helpless. The time was indeed too short and he didn't leave anything for them. He felt embarrassed.

I had already told Master Chen to book a restaurant in the morning. As soon as he saw the car driving into the alley, He Huan knew that he would be able to eat something delicious.

Authentic food is often hidden in casual alleys. Those streets often pay attention to the environment, presentation and service, but the authenticity is not as good as those in the alleys.

As soon as the food arrived, He Huan took a bite and looked at Master Chen, "Sure enough, it needs to be led by a local! This tastes so good!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" The tourists were too busy talking and just nodded.

He Huan looked at Ms. Lan, who had no appetite, and said, "The food in Banna cannot be disappointed."

"Yeah." Ms. Lan also moved her chopsticks.

After eating, the group returned to the hotel to pack their luggage.

He Huan said: "Check it yourself! Don't leave anything behind!"

Then I looked at Ms. Lan who was walking away alone. I didn’t know if her husband had really left or something?

When they went downstairs, He Huan collected their room cards and went to check out, but Ms. Lan did not give him the room card. She took it to the front desk and said, "I opened it myself yesterday."

He Huan nodded and understood that she would be too worried to stay in the bed where her husband had slept with other women.

She checked out on the other side, and He Huan also handed the room cards of other tourists to the front desk.

Wen Jiao walked to him and said, "Xiao Bailong, are you leaving?"

"Well. Thank you, Manager Wen, for taking care of me these days."

Wen Jiao smiled and said, "You're welcome. If you come to Banna from now on, you can come to me. You can come to me if you don't stay in our hotel."

He Huan smiled and nodded.

I didn’t go to Amantara this time. The Little White Dragon Group encountered such a big event, so they didn’t mention the dinner date again. But if summer comes, He Huan wants to stay in Amantara, because it’s next to the botanical garden and it’s a good place to watch fireflies.

convenient.

After asking the front desk, Ms. Lan's husband's room had already been checked out. He Huan nodded. It seemed that he had really left his wife here and left. He looked at Ms. Lan again, and she had already pulled the small suitcase and walked outside.

.

Seeing Wenjiao, he also looked at Ms. Lan. When she walked out, He Huan asked, "Did you see what happened yesterday?"

"Yeah." Wen Jiao said, "I will take care of the Little White Dragons full-time. When your tourists come in with a big banana, I ask the bellman to help and ask them which room they want to carry it to, or whether they want to divide it.

?”

"It turned out that the lady arrived first, and her husband was stunned at that time." Wenjiao smiled a little gloatingly, "Humph! Man! But this lady is so well-behaved!

He didn't get angry, he just introduced his identity. The woman his husband brought with him at that time turned red with embarrassment and lost her temper. After she introduced her identity, the woman ran away without saying a word.

.

Later, we helped them split the bananas, and we didn’t know anything else, and they didn’t quarrel. Now, is the man gone? Is she left alone?”

He Huan nodded.

"Alas!" Wen Jiao shook her head, "Man!"

He Huan was speechless, "Manager Wen, how come you see a man's behavior and say: Alas! Man! Then do I have to say to your overthrowing behavior: Alas! Woman!"

Wen Jiao laughed, "Xiao Bailong is a good man! I told you to call me Wen Jiao as soon as we met. I've been living here for three days and I still belong to Manager Wen."

He Huan smiled and said, "Goodbye, Manager Wen."

Wen Jiao saw him out with a smile on her face, watched him get into the car, and then watched the car drive away.

He Huan looked at the tourists, "We are going to Nannuo Mountain now, which belongs to Menghai County and is half an hour away from Jinghong."

"Ah! So fast!"

"Yes! That's why we are setting off now." He Huan said, "Actually, it is not a scenic spot, but an aboriginal village. It just takes you up the mountain to relax your body and mind."

Everyone was looking forward to it and happy. They had been playing all morning and needed to relax.

"The people living in Nannuo Mountain are the Hani people. They are called the Moni people by local custom, and some are also called the Akha people. They are a branch of the Hani people. The meaning of the word Nannuo is... Come, come, tell.

I!"

The tourists laughed and said: "Shui Nuo!"

He Huan was speechless, then smiled and said: "Nan means water in Dai language, which is correct. Nuo means bamboo shoots. Legend has it that a long time ago, Nannuo Mountain had no name. The Hani people lived on the mountainside and there were many bamboos on the mountain.

Hani women and children dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest to make bamboo shoot sauce, which is sour bamboo shoots.

One time, the Zhaopian leaders led civil and military officials on an inspection tour to Nannuo Mountain. The Hanitou people killed pigs and cows to entertain them. The Zhaopian leaders had enough meat and didn't particularly like it.

The leader presented a bowl of bamboo shoot sauce, and ordered some slices to eat. It was sour, spicy and refreshing, which whetted his appetite. He immediately ordered the bamboo shoot sauce as a tribute. From then on, the Dai people called this mountain Nannuo Mountain, where the bamboo shoot sauce was produced.

Before the establishment of the autonomous prefecture in Banna in 1953, Nannuo Mountain had always been under the direct jurisdiction of Cheche, which was also under the direct jurisdiction of Jinghong. The local tea and bamboo shoot sauce were donated to Cheche every year."

"Why did Jinghong call the car?"

"We'll talk about this later," He Huan said, "Many place names in the Banna area are transliterated from Dai, but the name in the car is a foreign name."

The tourists nodded.

"The Moni people also value and worship water very much, and they cannot live without bamboo. They used to live in bamboo houses and eat bamboo shoots and bamboo tube rice.

But the Dai people live at the foot of the mountain, and the Yi Ni people live on the mountainside. In other words, the entire Hani people live on the mountainside. That’s why there are the world-famous Hani Rice Terraces.”

"Wow!" Everyone was so excited.

He Huan looked at them and said, "Fly over there! It's at the Red River!"

The tourists were speechless.

A tourist said: "Then after we have fun in Banna, we will go to the Red River!"

He Huan rolled his eyes at him, "In Banna, the Hani people are the second largest ethnic minority after the Dai people. Why do two peoples who both like water and bamboo live at the foot of the mountain and the other on the mountainside?"

Everyone looked at him curiously.

"There is a story that the Dai people and the Yi Ni people were originally two brothers, and they both lived in Pingba at the foot of the mountain. Later, the population increased and they couldn't live anymore.

They decided to divide their families, how to divide them? The younger brother of the Dai people likes to go fishing in the river, and the older brother of the Zeni people likes to go hunting in the mountains, but they are too embarrassed to say it."

The tourists looked at him with a smile and liked to listen to his stories.

"Brother Zuni proposed to use fire to divide the area, and the area burned by the fire belongs to the elder brother. The younger brother from the Dai ethnic group proposed to use water to divide the areas. The area where the water reaches belongs to the younger brother.

Obviously, the fire burned up the mountain and the water flowed down. In this way, the elder brother moved to the mountain, and the younger brother lived in Pingba. During the New Year and festivals, the younger brother would go up the mountain to deliver fish and shrimps to his elder brother, and the elder brother would share the meat with his younger brother when hunting.

But why do two brothers who live in the same area, have the same eating habits, and frequently visit each other to send gifts to each other, have completely different beliefs and customs?”

He Huan looked at the tourists, and the tourists looked at him curiously.

"First of all, let's talk about another name for the Yi Ni people - Aka, which comes from the Dai word 'Ka Ge', which means slave."

"Ah!" Everyone was surprised, unable to accept that brothers suddenly became slaves!

"The Hani people originally called themselves the Yani people. They have always been ruled by the feudal lords of the Dai people. In the middle of the 19th century, the Dai people summoned local leaders to divide the Hani people's living area into the Kasi Shuanghe Circle, which means twelve slave areas."

"ah!"

"All their land belongs to the Zhaopian leader, and they gradually acquiesced to this unequal status. Before the 1950s, they called themselves Akaran. They only turned around slightly during festival celebrations.

, who call themselves Yanni people.

The Han people also used the Dai language to call them Akha. Until the 1950s, including the Nannuo Mountain we are going to now, there was a hierarchical system of slavery."

“In 1953, at the People’s Congress of the Glanghe Autonomous Region, it was decided through consultation that their self-proclaimed Yani would be translated as Zuni, which means brothers.

Then the whole Banna calls the Hani people of Banna the Moni people, which means that everyone is a brother. The previous story about dividing the land was probably created for ethnic unity. So when you see the Moni people now, don’t call them people.

Akha people.”

Everyone nodded.

"Are they brothers? We still need to analyze their relationship in depth."

The tourists looked at him curiously and knew there was a story behind it.
