Wang Mopan was originally a slovenly man in his forties who ran away to beg for food. Because of his skills passed down from his ancestors, he became very popular in the Gaoli area. Later he married a beautiful woman from the Bai Miao tribe.
This girl, Xiao Wang Mopan, was nearly twenty years old at the time.
In return, Wang Mopan took his pigs and the white Miao tribe to success repeatedly, and the amount of gold sand they dug in a year was thousands of times more than that of the black Miao tribe.
Kuromiaobe was extremely jealous.
He said this was impossible, so he sent more than 80 people with knives to snatch Wang Mopan away from him.
Then happened the "Battle of Nujiang" between black and white seedlings
More than 80 people from Black Miao came, which is equivalent to half of the men in the tribe. In order to protect Wang Mopan from being taken away, Bai Miao also dispatched more than half of their troops. The two tribes killed each other with heavy casualties and were stained with blood.
The river turned red.
As a result, both sides suffer losses.
Finally, the two parties negotiated and agreed to build a Philosopher's Stone on the bank of the Nu River. The Philosopher's Stone was made entirely of gold. The two parties agreed that in order to reduce unnecessary casualties, a martial arts competition would be held at the Philosopher's Stone every year.
Among the six people, whoever wins will get the right to mine the gold sands next year. They can also bring Wang Mopan to their tribe and ask him to help find gold mines.
A few years passed, and sometimes this family won, sometimes that family won. Wang Mopan simply became a family in the Black Miao tribe again, and he married the youngest Black Miao beauty with the best figure.
This year he spent time with his wife at one place, and next year he went back to that place to spend time with his wife. Wang Mopan never tired of it and became the biggest winner.

Therefore, there is a proverb spread among the Black Miao tribe in Gaoli area.
"The water flows, Jinshasha, Wang Mopan, come to my house."
"Black seedlings are good, white seedlings are bad. Feed the golden pigs and they will grow."
After the reopening, Black Miao and White Miao suddenly disappeared into the vast mountains. Subsequently, a large number of explorers continued to go to Gongshan. Ye didn't know whether they wanted to find Black Miao and White Miao, or they wanted to find the "spot" used for martial arts competitions.
Gold and stone.”
After telling the short story, let’s talk about our experiences.
Dou Sprout threw the camel excrement, cursed that it made me sick, and then we continued on our way.
Tengger means god in Mongolian. The vast desert in Alxa Left Banner is called god, which shows its previous status in the hearts of local people. In addition, there are many small lakes in this sandy land. If you use
Looking at the topography of Tengger on the satellite map, these scattered small lakes are like colorful pearls, including white, blue and red. Douya Xiaoxuan and I found one last time.
If you go through Tengger and reach the Badain Jaran Desert, although it is close, there will be no such small lakes. The reason should be due to the influence of the Helan Mountains.
The Helan Mountains are more than 2,000 meters above sea level and have abundant precipitation all year round. The mountains have abundant precipitation and the deserts have less precipitation. This will create an atmospheric pressure difference and underground rivers will form under the Qilian Mountains. These groundwaters will flow into the desert to form small lakes.
Therefore, the water source of these lakes in Tengger comes from the ground instead of rain from the sky. Otherwise, the desert cannot get half a bowl of water in a year, so how could there be so many small lakes.
Because these lakes do not have the ability to circulate and discharge, and the temperature in the desert is so high, they will evaporate. Once the water dries up, salt will remain. Over time, more and more salt will be stored, and eventually a saltwater lake will be formed. This water ratio
Sea water is salty, and a sip of it can kill a person. Don’t underestimate these lakes. They can be used to make lake salt, which is quite expensive.
On about the eighth day, we found a saltwater lake. This small lake was actually red, and it was not completely red, but half red and half blue. The place where red and blue met was a white line. The lake was calm and it was so beautiful.
We don’t have much mineral water. When I saw this small lake, my first reaction was to get water. Last time we went into the desert, Aza stole the water. If we hadn’t encountered the bottle tree of the Kayak people, Xiaoxuan and I would have been thirsty.
After all, I encountered a saltwater lake one time, but I had to give up because I didn’t know how to fetch water.
Later, I asked Uncle Hulu once and he taught me a method. The Hute tribe has been living in the desert for generations. Uncle Hulu’s method was very useful.
There are two small spherical-shaped glass bottles in the bean sprouts buns. They were originally filled with sour plum soup. After drinking the sour plum soup, he kept the bottles, which are just in use now.
This method of distilling salt water can be used with or without fire, but it is slow and divided into three steps.
I brought two iron rice bowls.
The first step is to fill the basin with sand. One end of the sand should be higher and the other lower. Then fill one of the glass bottles with lake water. Do not fill too much lake water at one time. Make sure that the water cannot flow out when the glass bottle is placed flat.
.
In the second step, after filling the water, match the mouth of another bottle that is not filled with water, make sure it is tightly aligned, and then wrap the joint with cloth.
The third step is to fill some water from the lake, pour it into the rice bowl containing the water bottle, and then light a fire to heat the rice bowl. When the sand is hot, the water will boil.
Because the two bottles are facing each other, a large amount of water vapor will be produced after the water is boiled. It will expand with heat and shrink with cold. The negative air pressure will automatically collect the water vapor into the empty bottle at this end.
Wait until the water boils dry before pouring.
Eventually, drop by drop, the salt water gradually became more and more, and the salt water turned into fresh water that can be drank directly.
Seeing that my method was successfully tested with his own eyes, Bean Sprout was overjoyed and kept praising me for being awesome. Brother Yu also had a smile on his face, and everyone was very happy.
As long as there is water, we can walk longer distances and find the trail more easily.
So, we were stationed near the salt water lake during those two days. Because only two glass bottles were inefficient, we divided into two shifts and boiled fresh water day and night. I planned to replenish enough at one time until all our empty bottles were filled.
It's full, keep walking.
On the day shift are Liao Bo, Xiaomi and Xiaoxuan.
The night shift is me, Brother Yu, and Bean Sprouts.
On the third day of collecting water, they all fell asleep, and I was left alone to watch the fire distilling.
Because I didn't collect much firewood, I didn't care when the fire burned down. The sand in the rice bowl heated up, and the heat of the sand was enough to boil the lake water. I was dozing off with my hands in my hands.
Suddenly, a wolf howled from behind, followed by a crashing sound.
The sound was so loud that it scared me awake.
Desert Wolf??
I looked around in panic.
It didn't matter what I saw, it scared the hell out of me at the time!
A wooden board is sliding towards me very quickly!
Two desert wolves pulled the wooden plank and ran quickly. What was even more terrifying was that I saw a person sitting on the wooden plank!
He was already dark, but there was a white cloth hanging down his face, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
I shouted: "Get up! Get up!" while shouting and running towards the tent.
I know that there are desert wolves in Tengger. I have seen them with Aji before, but it is almost winter now. How could the desert wolves come here?
Brother Yu was the first to come out. He was frightened when he saw this scene. He immediately held a pointed wooden stick to protect me behind him. Xiaoxuan and Xiaomi and Liao Bo also ran out quickly. Only Dou Sprout was still sleeping.
"coming!"
Brother Yu gritted his teeth and tightened his grip on the stick.
The two wolves running behind the wooden board seemed to be controlled by someone, and stopped ten meters away from us.
The wolves' eyes were green in the dark. The two wolves were motionless, just staring at us.
The wind just happened to blow at this time.
The wind blew against the man sitting on the wooden board. The white cloth in front of the man's face was blown up and down by the wind.
The wind became stronger and stronger, and finally the white cloth blew away, revealing the man's face.
No wonder he was motionless.
The person sitting on the wooden board is not a living person
The flesh on this man's face has been dehydrated, his facial features have shrunk together, his clothes are in tatters, and there is a large amount of gauze wrapped around his right calf. The gauze is somewhat weathered and yellowish in color.
When Liao Xiaomi saw this scene, he was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.
I suppressed my fear and looked at the nearly dried corpse again.
Suddenly!
A wave of cool air rushed down along the Tianling Gai!
