Chapter 461: They got into a quarrel with each other after singing the same song

Many people were holding back to listen to the music, and now they hurriedly lined up to go to the toilet and wash their hands.

Liang Ange excitedly patrolled along the dustpan feast, grilled chicken, grilled fish, grilled pork belly, fried bee pupae, colorful rice, lemon sprinkles... the little white dragon ball drooled all over the floor.

"Why do you feel so much like the Dai people?" Everyone resisted the urge to grab food now and pretended to be civilized people to learn knowledge.

"Go south along the Nu River..." He Huan swallowed hard and placed the rice in the open air. It was a test of endurance!

Continue to be an educated tour guide, "This is Dehong, which flows out of the country and is renamed the Salween River. This area belongs to the river valley area, and the climate is hotter in summer. The people living in Dehong are the Dai and Jingpo people, so their eating habits are similar to those of the Dai people

, likes to eat hot and sour food, various barbecued meats, and fried insects.”

Liang Ange nodded and looked up. The governor quickly followed them and led them to their seats.

Seeing that everyone was seated, the governor picked up the wine bowl and said, "Welcome the experts and singers of the Little White Dragon Group to Nujiang! Let's do it!" He hugged Little White Dragon's neck.

He Huan said with a smile: "I am very happy to gather with my brothers and sisters in the beautiful Nujiang River to share the reunion dinner! Do it!"

When everyone takes a look, there are round dustpans all around, aren’t they a reunion dinner?

They all picked up their wine bowls and stood up, holding their necks and drinking together the wine.

Putting down the wine bowls, everyone sat down, just like the song competition just now, no invitations were needed, they all put on their gloves and started.

The leaders are very happy, they are so casual! But the owner of Nujiang Gorge really doesn’t like to be greeted by everyone!

After almost eating, everyone started walking around drinking with wine bowls in hand.

They had their arms around their necks, their faces were pressed against each other, and the wine bowl was put to their mouths, and they had to drink. He Huan felt that every tour guide’s drinking capacity might have been developed in this way.

Don't drink it until Miss Dragon comes! You can only drink it now.

Several Weixi singers with goat horns on their heads came over with wine bowls and said, "Xiao Bailong, you are going to Shangri-La! When we came, Director Ge Lai told us that we must let you take the music group to Shangri-La in the future!"

Otherwise, he won’t let us come to Nujiang!”

He Huan laughed and nodded, "Okay!"

The experts laughed, and the singers hugged them and drank together.

As soon as he put down the bowl of wine, a Lijiang singer came over and held his arm around his neck, "Xiao Bailong, you have done too much publicity for our Lijiang! He Jie said that he would have to wait until you take the experts to Lijiang. We also have many good songs.

!”

"Okay, okay!" He Huan nodded and drank again.

After drinking several bowls, He Huan waved his hands, "Do you want me to just lie down in the afternoon? I also want to hear you sing!"

The singers then let him go.

He Huan waved to the photographers around him, "You guys should sit down and eat too!"

The photographers immediately threw away their cameras and ran over. Director Chen was helpless and couldn't take care of it anymore, so he also came over to sit down and eat.

After eating, a group of people sat on the hillside again. The villagers laid out many mats for them, and everyone sat or lay down to rest.

The leaders are also reluctant to leave. In the past, they would just show their faces at such activities to show their importance, but now seeing how casual they are, they really don’t want to leave!

He also ran down and sat next to him.

But no one cares, there are no restrictions.

The experts chatted with the singers about the songs they sang that morning and couldn't help but sigh: "Except for their names, I can't understand a single word!"

Liang Ange nodded, "Yes! Their names are similar to ours! They're quite popular! There don't seem to be other ethnic minorities with weird names! But their songs are really weird and nice!"

He Huan smiled and said: "Are their names really not weird?"

Seeing his smiling face, everyone felt that it was not easy!

The singers also looked at him curiously, "What's so strange about our names? We all have Chinese names!"

He Huan smiled and said, "The Lisu people originally did not have a surname, only a baby name and a married name. The baby name was given when they were born. It is also called the soul name. Only the parents know it."

Normally, they don't tell people the name of the soul, because they think that calling the soul's name will let the ghosts know it and take away the soul. Only when they are sick and during the soul-calling ceremony, the parents will tell the wizard the name of the soul and call him back.

The married name is the name given after marriage, and everyone calls him by this name. Because they migrate and live together as a family unit, forming a tribe.

There are not many people in the tribe itself, so you just have to have a name. When you leave the tribe, you just need to say which tribe you are from, no need to say your name.

During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, a large number of immigrants entered Yunzhou, stationed soldiers and fields, occupied their cultivated land, and dominated their children. Han culture began to influence them. In order to make it easier to call them, some Lisu compatriots had names, or their ethnic groups may even have changed.

But more Lisu tribes continue to migrate deeper into the canyon, and continue to live a tribal life without surnames in this sparsely populated and inaccessible place.

By 1820, that is, in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the land cultivated by our Lisu compatriots was occupied and resold by chieftains and Han bureaucrats, and they were forced to revolt.

We have said that slash-and-burn cultivation is not easy, especially in high mountains and valleys. After finally reclaiming some land, it was occupied and sold.

The uprising alarmed the imperial court, so there must be a leader, right? Then when the local government reported it to the imperial court, what was your name as the leader?

Go ask them, no one knows. Huh? Name? What is your name?

The local officials made up a name for them, saying Tang Gui and Fu Tiangui. They rebelled, and the reason was something or other. You said Tang Gui, Fu Tiangui, this name is too Han Chinese."

He Huan said Er Huayin, Tang Gui'er, Fu Tian Gui'er. This was not only Han, but also Sichuan and Chongqing! Everyone laughed.

"This is the first time that they have faced Han culture on a large scale because of war. The two sides are fighting! The generals will be named! Who is the other party? I don't know! Isn't this battle like child's play?"

A group of people laugh.

"The rebels are also confused! The generals are here to be named! This is too much!"

"Hahaha..." A group of singers stopped singing and gathered around Xiaobailong to listen to the explanation. I finally understood why the Lisu brothers in the National Park wanted to drink Tongxin wine with him after hearing his explanation!

People who know your history and culture better than you are not allowed to drink Tongxin Wine?

"We have to come up with a name! If you call it, the other side will be frightened! What's La Pa En Pa Ni Pa! Here it comes! Pa means tribe in Lisu language."

The Lisu compatriots nodded, "We still have many people named Papa, but there are more of them from the older generation."

"They just took tribe as their surname. What does it mean? Even the Han people can't understand it! Find someone to translate it! Oh, Lapa... is not porridge!"

"Hahaha……"

He Huan looked at the little white dragon group and said, "Guess."

"Tiger tribe!" said a language expert.

"Yes!" He Huan said with a smile, "You are indeed an expert in the study of ethnic languages! Lapa, this is very similar to Bijia Village's self-proclaimed Laluoba! They both mean tiger tribe.

Lisu is a branch of the Yi language, and some of the pronunciations are the same or similar to those of the Yi language. Enba is the bear tribe, and niapa is the bird tribe.

After the translation, they had a surname, and those of the Bear tribe were named Xiong. As for the Tiger tribe, the Han people said that there was no tiger among the surnames, so they translated it into Hu. There was no suitable homophone for bird, so they took the surname Bird. This way.

That’s how they took the tribe as their surname.”

The Propaganda Minister said: "Yes! Xiao Bailong really understands the culture of our ethnic minorities better than we ourselves!"

The Lisu compatriots nodded.

"After liberation, production teams all needed names, and Lisu children also needed names when they entered school. Many Han cadres and teachers gave them names or transliterated names.

So when you see these Lisu compatriots, many of their names seem to be very common, but through their surnames, you can still determine their ancestors.

What kind of bear, Hou, valley, and Ma! For example, our driver’s surname is Ma.”

The driver looked at him with a smile, learning about his life experience from Xiao Bailong's mouth!

He Huan looked at the festive costumes worn by the singers, "The costumes of the Lisu people are mainly made of linen. Hemp is also their object of worship. They can't live without hemp, just like we can't live without old drivers!"

Master Ma clapped his hands and laughed, very happy. Master Li saw him happy. No matter how happy he was, he couldn't drink! Hum.

The little white dragon group watched little white dragon coax a group of ethnic minority compatriots into smiling faces and regarded him as a brother!

"Because they worship elves and believe in animism, each tribe has specific objects of worship.

Everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, grows in the ground, swims in water, everything becomes the object of their worship, which forms their surname, which comes from the tribe and nature."

Liang Ange said: "I already felt it when I listened to their singing this morning!"

The Lisu compatriots were very happy and gathered around the little white dragon to listen with great interest.

He Huan looked at a few singers and said, "These singers are named Feng, Tang, and Ding. In fact, they all come from the bee tribe. Feng is the bee derived from bees. Some people are directly named Mi or Feng, and

The harvest becomes abundant.

And since honey is sweet, I can’t just give my last name Tian, ​​right? It’s so embarrassing to say that I’m sweet! Especially us boys! To put it more tactfully, our last name is Tang, and put the word rice next to it.”

"Hahaha……"

"ah!"

"Honey is very sweet, but bees sting. Unlike them, I only think about bees and the sweetness of honey. I have to be more cautious. My last name is Ding, so I changed the word "Ding"."

"Hahaha……"

Unexpectedly, the three singers were from the same tribe, so they gathered together and hugged their shoulders happily.

Everyone gathered around and rushed to tell their names, asking Xiao Bailong to help them find brothers and sisters from the same tribe!

The Lisu boy from the ethnic garden pulled him first, "Me, me, me!"

"What's your name?" He Huan turned to look at him.
