Chapter 394: Taishang Laojun's Alchemy Furnace

The herdsmen who came from all directions to participate were dressed in festival costumes and sat around the opening ceremony to enjoy the colorful singing and dancing performances. The unique cultural performances showed tourists from all over the country a picture of the grassland.

The hospitality herdsmen sat on the float and played popular songs for tourists from afar. With the melodious long tunes, the sound of Humai and horse-head fiddles seemed to be able to touch the Mongolian nomads who rode their horses and carried their unique heroism and character for thousands of years, becoming a beauty that is difficult to replicate.

The opening ceremony is divided into three parts: the sacred Sulu ingot, the snow-land ethnic style, and the eternal bonfire. The enthusiastic herders held the mysterious Barhu grassland Vulcan Festival with unconcealed joy, offering sacrifices to the fire god, offering sacrifices to the Aobao, and offering sacrifices to Sulu ingot. The devout herders passed on this ancient traditional ritual to this day with awe of heaven and earth, and showed it to people of all ethnic groups on the day of the opening ceremony.

Nearby is the Ulanhada volcano group. Looking down from a high altitude, the towering volcano is like the alchemy furnace of the Taishang Laojun. This volcano will erupt rhythmically along the central entrance. The lava flows strongly and the explosion during the eruption is gentle. Many volcanic debris fall back to or near the crater and will be ejected again. This volcano will form a distinct volcanic cone. On the gentle grassland, the proud volcano looks tall and graceful from a distance.

Hire a local tour guide to set off, and the car is driving on the road. You can clearly see the three volcanoes located on the west side of the road. Because the cone is like a furnace, the tour guide introduced that there are three nearest volcanoes, the largest one is the "Northern Alchemy Furnace". The southwest is the "Middle Alchemy Furnace", and the south is the "Southern Alchemy Furnace", and there are some volcanoes far away.

When I came to the North Alchemy Furnace, it was shaped like a bell, with a round and deep fire mouth. The diameter of the cone bottom was about 700 meters from east to west and about 600 meters from north to south. The fire mouth gradually lowered from northwest to northeast wall, and the relative height of the cone was about 80 meters. It had been built along the cone to linger upward stone steps. Climb up and watch, the fire mouth was wide open - like a Super Bowl with a diameter of 180 meters and a depth of 30 meters.

The dormant North Alchemy Furnace is an active volcano. In the late Quaternary period of geological history, a crustal vibration urged magma to gush out through a tubular channel. The powerful explosive force sprayed magma debris into high altitude, causing it to fall under gravity, forming a basal black drop slag cone.

When the volatile components in the magma decrease and the eruption energy decreases, the magma turns into a weaker fountain-like eruption, and pyroclastic matter splashes on the edge of the fire, forming a steep splashing cone.

Standing at a high place, overlooking the southeast and west sides of the camellia, you can identify the magma overflow outlet that looks like a fire outlet. This is a sign that the northern alchemy furnace enters a quiet overflow stage. After the magma flows out from the overflow outlet, it flows down the low-lying area. There is less lava overflow on the west side, and a large amount of alkaline basalt flow is formed in the southeast direction. The leading edge reaches the Shaohaizi, the largest Wulan Lake in this area, with a distribution area of ​​70 square kilometers.

In the Zhongdan Furnace volcano 5 kilometers away, such lava flows form the majestic stone river, stone lake and even the stone sea. Some block the water system to form volcanic landslide lakes such as Moshigainao and Baiyinnao Haizi. Some of them break the crust and lift it up during the pushing flow, turning it into a batch of flower-turning stones. There are also long squeeze ridges running through it. For a time, the stone waves roll and the stone slams against the shore.

We have come from thousands of miles to the only deer tribe and the last hunting nation. Here is a memory of asking about the history of thousands of years, touching the past and present charm, and here is a soft mood of leaving behind the complicated world, indulging in the soul, and galloping through imagination.

Enjoy a harmonious unity of man and nature here, capturing the beautiful collision of natural breath, Aoluguya, opening it is equivalent to opening a dreamy fairy tale.

To see the deer, you must go into the deep forest. The ancient Ewenk people have three branches, Sauron, Tungus, and Yakut. As time passed, only Yakut was located in the depths of the Greater Khingan Mountains, living by hunting and raising reindeer.

They would rather go far away to carry dead trees as firewood than cut down a living tree. The climate is very cold, and the long-term primitive state has allowed them to retain the original national culture. The locals believe in shaman worshiping tree gods and use birch bark to make daily necessities.

Reindeer is commonly known as the Four Nosy. It is gentle in nature, with both male and female horns. It is said that it is Jiang Ziya's mount and also pulls sleds for Santa Claus. If you buy a basket of moss, those guys with branches and big antlers will immediately surround you. The food is delicious, and that happiness is really great.

Don't worry that they will hurt you, because they are so gentle, and they will gently rub your body with deer antlers, as if thank you for visiting them from afar.

When visiting shaman sacrifices, our nation respects as wise men and is an envoy between humans and gods. In life, shamans must be presided over the rituals and treatments of illnesses. Shamans jump to the gods to pray for blessings to the totems of nature and the gods of their ancestors, begging for the protection of the gods to obtain peace, good luck and health.

Like many primitive nations living in the wilderness, they are extremely respectful of fire and believe that there is a god in fire, so they cannot spit in it, nor can they throw unclean things into it. Therefore, the fire is immortal. Whenever they migrate, there will be a reindeer that specializes in transporting fire.

There is no fixed residence in the forest. The Cuoluozi is a traditional temporary residence, which looks like an Oroqen immortal pillar, about 3 meters high and 4 meters in diameter. It is a conical building. It is actually a circular shack made of several birch poles or willow poles, and it is also a very simple tent.

The coverings vary with the seasons. In summer and autumn, the outside is usually covered with hay, reeds or birch bark, and in winter, it is wrapped with muntjac and deer skin. The top is a natural skylight, and you can see the stars in the sky when you sleep inside.

It is advocating that all things have spirits and cannot be separated from nature for a moment. Staying in Cuoluo for one night will be an unforgettable special experience.

Follow local hunting experts into the mountains, and accumulate rich and diverse hunting techniques and experience in long-term hunting practice. In addition to hunting with hunting rifles, we also use hunting, traps, gun stabs, arrow shooting, dog catches, clips, net covers, medicine poisons, and medicine blowing...

It started as early as childhood. Children hunt with adults since childhood. They can try guns at the age of 12 and hunt with their fathers and brothers. They first learn to hunt squirrels and then learn to hunt big beasts. They can hunt alone at the age of 16 or 17.

There are many strange-shaped buildings on the way. It turns out that the warehouse first cuts two adjacent trees off the treetops and uses wood to build a hanging warehouse. A wooden pillar with stairs is erected on the ground to serve as a ladder. Food, prey, clothes, utensils, etc. are stored inside, and it is never locked. Other hunters can use it at will and return it in full afterwards.

In order to protect the last tribal civilization, they are now selling their own handmade jewelry, deer antlers and deer skins for tourists, which have also become special cultural business cards.

For hundreds of years, the Aoluguya Ewenki nation has always been quietly hiding in the Greater Xing'an Mountains. Even if time passes through its mountain gate, it still keeps its simplicity.
