Chapter 78 Herdsmen

Chapter 78 Herdsmen

"Brother Zhou, what does "duoqi" mean?"

Liu Chuan followed Zhou Rui and asked him, "Amara must be the mother, mother is the collective name for mother in the world, but if these two words are mentioned too much, everyone will not understand."

“In Tibetan, Duoqi is the name Tibetan people call Tibetan Mastiff, which means a big dog that is tied up at home, but this Mastiff King cannot be tied down.”

Zhou Rui explained casually. At this time, the little girl's voice also called out the adults in the tent. A strong Tibetan man wearing a lambskin hat on his head and a muscular body came to greet everyone.

When the golden retriever Tibetan Mastiff saw the Tibetan man, he immediately pounced on him and licked the man's face affectionately with his tongue. When the man saw the gauze wrapped on the Tibetan Mastiff's forelimbs, he immediately understood in his heart that these guests had given him so much.

The injury on his face was being healed, and the smile on his face became brighter. For Tibetans, a purebred Tibetan Mastiff in their home is no less important than an important member of the family. These foreign guests helped the Tibetan Mastiff, which was a blessing to them.

The utmost respect.

The Tibetan man walked to a place five or six meters away from the crowd, stopped, stretched out his right hand to take off the hat on his head, bent forward with his upper body, and the hat in his hand almost dropped to the ground.

After the man saluted, he said: "Welcome guests from afar. Rinchen Tsomo on the prairie would like to extend his most sincere welcome to your arrival."

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard that this Tibetan man actually spoke Chinese. Although he spoke a little awkwardly, they all understood what he meant. However, Zhuang Rui, Liu Chuan and others were not satisfied with the etiquette expressed by this man.

People don't know how to reciprocate.

Zhou Rui knew that the etiquette that the man just performed was a courtesy that Tibetans would only perform to the most distinguished guests or their elders. He did not dare to neglect it at the moment. He took a step forward, bowed in return, and said: "Excuse me on the grassland.

A brave man."

At this time, people from several nearby tents came out. From the tent where Rinchen Tsomo came out, a woman in her thirties walked out with a few snow-white khatas in her hand. It looked like she should be

Rinchen Tsomo's wife.

In some Tibetan areas that have become more heavily Sinicized, almost all guests will offer a hada when they arrive. However, for the herdsmen on these grasslands, offering a hada means treating each other as the most respected guests. The couple brings them to everyone one by one.

After going to Hada, the group was allowed into the tent.

From the outside, the tent didn't seem very big, but after everyone entered, they discovered that the space inside the tent was very large. It was even divided into two small rooms. There was also a stove in the middle of the tent, making the tent full of warmth.

It's interesting that the place for entertaining guests is very spacious. There are more than a dozen people sitting inside, and it doesn't feel crowded at all.

Since Rinchen Tsomo can speak Chinese, it is not difficult for everyone to communicate. His wife's name is Pema, which means lotus, and the eight or nine-year-old girl's name is Dawa, which means moon. This is a family of three.

s home.

Little Dawa had a few pigtails on his head, and his rosy face had an obvious plateau red color. He tilted his head and looked at the puppy in Zhuang Rui's arms, with a look of good humor in his eyes.

At this time, Rinqing Tsomo also learned about the experience of Zhuang Rui and others in rescuing the Golden Retriever Tibetan Mastiff. After hearing Liu Chuan's story about Zhou Rui holding down the Tibetan Mastiff to heal its injuries, he quickly stood up and told a young man next to him

The man said: "Danba, tell the people in the nest that I will hold a grand banquet today to entertain my most distinguished guests. I will ask Machen Tsetan to prepare the cattle and sheep, so that our guests can feel the beauty of the prairie."

enthusiasm.”

The man who followed in from another tent agreed, nodded and smiled at Zhuang Rui and others, turned around and walked out of the tent. Then he heard his shouts, and the entire tent area immediately became lively, and inside the tent

, the hostess Baima also prepared butter tea, took out several small wooden bowls with silver rims, and placed them in front of everyone one by one. After the water on the stove boiled, she immediately poured tea for everyone.

Along the way, everyone listened to Zhou Rui's talk about the customs of the Tibetan people and knew that this tea must be drunk, and more than three bowls of it must be drunk. Except Zhou Rui, everyone was not very accustomed to this butter tea.

He barely drank three small bowls, but Liu Chuan drank five bowls by himself. While drinking, he praised the tea. Rinqing Tsomo looked at him with the most appreciative eyes.

Only Zhuang Rui knew that Liu Chuan must have set his sights on finding Tibetan mastiffs in this Tibetan area.

After Qin Xuanbing and the other girls finished drinking tea, they chatted with Baima. They were very interested in the decorations in the tent and praised the beauty of the silver jewelry on Baima's head from time to time. Baima giggled when they heard this.

There was a cheerful atmosphere.

At this time, Zhuang Rui also put the puppy in his arms on the ground. However, the little guy seemed to be too attached to Zhuang Rui. He just circled around Zhuang Rui and ignored the dried meat in Xiao Dawa's hand.

Everyone was amazed.

"This may be the result of a cross between our family and someone else's family."

After looking at the little guy, Rinchen Tsomo said uncertainly that Tibetan Mastiffs only have their estrus period once in winter. Many of his family members are the kings of mastiffs in this area. They have many spouses and give birth to many puppies every year. This litter

The people in the house only kept the best puppies, and the others were abandoned.

Zhuang Rui was not disappointed after hearing this. He fell in love with this little guy who was more humane. Besides, large dogs were not allowed in the city. After he returned to Zhonghai, he was not lonely with this little guy by his side.

Already.

"Brother Rinchen Tsomo, everything is ready. Please invite the guests to come over."

The thick curtain of the tent was opened, and the Tibetan man just walked in.

After everyone went out, they came to the center of the nest and found that a large tent had been set up in the open space there, covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters. Many people were busy coming in and out, and there were voices coming from the side.

There were cries of slaughtering cattle and sheep, and a group of Tibetan dogs gathered around, picking up the thrown livers of cattle and sheep.

Entering the tent, a long row of tables and chairs had been set up, and Zhuang Rui and others were moved to their seats, accompanied by Pema, while Rinchen Tsomo stood at the entrance of the tent to greet the guests. After a while, Wozi

Everyone inside gathered around.

Some herdsmen who knew Chinese gathered around Zhuang Rui and others. Listening to Liu Chuan's bragging and deception, these simple men were stunned for a while. During this period, they even changed the joke about Wu Song fighting a tiger to

Zhuang Rui killed the wolf, and from time to time some young Tibetans would run up to Zhuang Rui, give him a thumbs up, and pat Zhuang Rui on the shoulder.

After a while, all the guests invited by Rinqing Tsomo came. He stood up and said a toast, and then toasted to Zhuang Rui and others. Even Qin Xuanbing and the other ladies were not spared, but the cups in front of them were smaller.

That's all. Several people followed Zhou Rui's actions, took the wine glass with both hands, then held the glass in one hand, put the middle finger of the other hand into the glass, dipped it lightly, and flicked it up to the sky with their thumb and middle finger, which meant to worship the gods. Next, come again.

The second time and the third time are to respect the ground and the Buddha respectively.

When drinking, you are also very particular. You have to take a small sip first. Rinchen Tsomo immediately pours the wine, fills the cup, then takes a second sip, fills the cup again, then takes a third sip, then fills the cup again, and so on.

, you have to drink the full glass of wine in one gulp.

Seeing these foreign guests respecting their customs so much, the Tibetan men sang songs one after another, while some young Tibetan women walked to the middle of the venue and danced, singing and dancing for a while, making it very lively.

The original roasted whole lamb that was served next made everyone more addicted to it. After a full two or three hours, the banquet was finally over. Liu Chuan, who was slightly tipsy, held the few pictures in his hands.

The wolf skin was presented to the owner Rinchen Tsomo on the spot, which made all the guests look at Rinchen Tsomo with envy. You must know that such a gift is difficult to get on the prairie, which also shows that

The respect the guest has for the host.

As the host, Rinqing Tsomo also drank a lot. When he stood up, he was already a little staggering, but his face was very happy. After lowering his head and saying something to Pema, he took Liu's hand with both hands.

For Tibetans, gifts from guests are the best wishes for friends and cannot be refused.

At this time, the golden-haired Tibetan Mastiff suddenly ran in, first came to Zhuang Rui, rubbed its big head against Zhuang Rui, and then lay down at the feet of Rinqing Tsomo. This scene amazed everyone in the tent. Everyone knew that Renqing Tsomo

The Duoji family of Qingtsomu is the most noble. No one except Rinqing Tsomo's family pays attention to them. Moreover, these guests are also brought by Duojie. Now they actually show kindness to Zhuang Rui.

It also made everyone respect Zhuang Rui even more.

"Brother Liu Chuan, Duoqi is our friend. I hope you can treat them well in the future. The Snow Mountain Goddess will bless you."

Little Dawa followed the golden retriever Tibetan Mastiff into the tent. She also held two black puppies in her arms. Liu Chuan's eyes lit up. Sure enough, after Rinchen Tsomo took the puppies, he

He gave it to Liu Chuan as a gift in return, which made Liu Chuan sober. He wanted to immediately send the two little Tibetan mastiffs, which had not yet opened their eyes, back to the incubator he had prepared on the Hummer.

These two little Tibetan mastiffs are both descendants of the golden mastiff king. Even if the female mastiff they mate with is not that pure, these two little mastiffs are still priceless. That's why Liu Chuan performed like that.

"Brother Renqing Tsomu, can you let us see the riding skills of the prairie warriors?"

After Liu Chuan and Renqing Tsomo finished exchanging gifts, Zhuang Rui spoke to the owner.

"No problem!" Rinchen Tsomo agreed simply and immediately asked someone to make arrangements.

The winter dens of Tibetans are also built in a place surrounded by mountains on three sides. This can not only shelter from the wind, but also effectively prevent attacks by wolves. However, after leaving the mountain col, there is a vast grassland without a single tree.

But herds of cattle and sheep, flocks of sheep on the grass, and horses are like rolling clouds dotted between the distant mountains and near the water, and the white clouds in the blue sky reflect them, almost indistinguishable, as if in a dream.

Liu Chuan walked to the entrance of the village and put the two little Tibetan Mastiffs on the Hummer. Zhuang Rui kept holding the little things. He had an injury to his arm and was unable to ride a horse. What he said just now was for Qin Xuanbing.

Over the past few days, he also knew that Qin Xuanbing loved riding horses.

At this time, little Dawa sat on a horse, followed by several tall horses, and came to the crowd.

"Brother Liu Chuan, how about we go horse racing?"

After Renqing Tsomu turned over and rode on a horse, he said to Liu Chuan.

Liu Chuan has grown up, and even when he was in the park, he took photos while riding on those old horses with missing teeth. How could he dare to answer this question? Qin Xuanbing said at the side: "I'll compete."

"Okay, you are Bam among women, but you can give it a try with Dawa."

Bam means heroine in Tibetan, but even though Rinchen Tsomo said this, he refused to compete with Qin Xuanbing and instead pushed his daughter out. This is also the pride of Tibetan men.

Qin Xuanbing was a little hesitant, comparing herself with an eight or nine-year-old child. Even if she won, it would be a shameless thing. However, she didn't know that the children of Tibetan herdsmen's families all grew up on horses.

Those professional horse racing jockeys are not much different.

Dawa's mother Baima came over with several saddles on her back. After putting a saddle on a pure white horse, she led it to Qin Xuanbing. Looking at the tall and handsome white horse and the endless prairie, Qin Xuanbing also

Ignoring the challenge of competing with little Dawa, he turned over and rode up.

Xiao Dawa was riding a bay red horse. After letting go of the speed, it was like a red lightning passing through the green grass. However, Qin Xuanbing's skills were really good. She followed Dawa closely without being caught.

Shaking away, two shadows, one red and one white, chased each other on the grassland.

At this moment, except Zhuang Rui, several others were also riding on the horse. Renqing Tsomu blew a whistle and rushed out first, followed closely by Zhou Rui, and then followed by Bo Meng'an. His equestrian skills

It turned out to be quite good, and their movements were quite satisfactory. Only Liu Chuan and Lei Lei were a little embarrassed, their bodies swaying on the horse, and Zhuang Rui laughed from below.

When the golden-haired Tibetan mastiff heard Rinchen Tsomo's whistle, he also sprang out. For a moment, horses neighed, dogs barked, and everyone's hearty laughter resounded across the grassland.

It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon after leaving this winter nest that filled everyone with wonderful memories. However, it was only more than four hours away from Nagqu. They could have rushed to Nagqu to spend the night, and Liu Chuan's visit this time

The purpose of hiding was also achieved, and the Humvee burst into laughter.

The ladies were happy that before leaving, Baima each gave them a piece of exquisite silver jewelry. Although the price may not be very expensive, it is definitely not available outside, which is enough to make them feel better about their trip.

Not bad anymore.

Bo Meng'an also sat on the Hummer, but his mood was not very high. Compared with Liu Chuan, who was being a daddy to two puppies, and Zhuang Rui, who was teasing the little ones, it seemed that Bo Meng'an's trip to Tibet

, not so beautiful.
