Section 29 Prayer
After a bumpy night, at about seven o'clock in the morning, the car stopped at a small county town. Bayi?Chinese Net ??? .?8 1 z?
Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui got out of the car.
This is almost the closest southwest direction of Xuanyuan Kingdom, and within an hour's drive to the south, you can go out of the border of Xuanyuan Kingdom and enter the territory of Vietnam.
Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui walked out of the station, found a random restaurant on the street, and had breakfast.
The urban area of Honghe Prefecture is extremely strange, with magnificent and modern city government buildings, industrial and commercial office buildings, banks, etc., as well as exotic temples, churches, and even Taoist temples, which shows that the beliefs of the people in this area are extremely complex.
In addition to these, there are more low-rise buildings that show the city and are yet to be built.
After breakfast at a halal noodle restaurant, the two got into a taxi and drove to Honghe County.
The full name of Honghe Prefecture is Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, which is a city-level administrative district, and it can also be seen from the name that there are a large number of Hani people in this place.
Honghe County is a county seat through which the source of the Red River flows, and there are many Hani people in Honghe County, and Su Xiaohui's hometown is in a village in Honghe County.
The taxi is a very broken Poussin, I have to say that although Poussin has an ugly shape, high fuel consumption and low degree, it has maintained an excellent spirit of hardship and hard work. The motive of this taxi will make a "bang" sound when it takes a few steps ahead, Tang Feng is very worried about this car, but it turns out that this car has not turned off except for the motive that is a little noisy.
The car stopped in Honghe County, and soon, Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui got into a motorized three-wheeler to Su Xiaohui's village.
Finally, at nearly ten o'clock, Su Xiaohui took Tang Feng's hand, pointed to a dense village on the mountainside, and said, "That's my home, uh, I haven't been here for more than three years." ”
Tang Feng was really a little tired on this journey, but Su Xiaohui was getting more energetic.
The two of them, dressed in Hani costumes, walked towards the village halfway up the mountain, like a pair of young lovers.
The trail is paved directly with uneven rocks, and small grasses grow in the cracks of the stones, which makes this trail full of different feelings.
Tang Feng and the others stepped on the rocky path like this and touched the village halfway up the mountain.
The houses in the village are made of solid wood and bamboo, and the houses are usually divided into several floors, which looks particularly refreshing.
Su Xiaohui came to the familiar courtyard, pushed open the door and walked in, an old woman in her forties in the courtyard was sitting on a bamboo chair looking up at the sky, hearing the sound of pushing the door, the old woman couldn't help but look at the door, seeing that it was Su Xiaohui, she couldn't help but stand up, and said, "Xiaohui?!! Why are you here?"
Su Xiaohui stepped forward and hugged the old woman and cried, "Mom, where is Dad?"
Su Xiaohui's mother couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Your uncle is asking Baima to pray for your father." ”
Su Xiaohui's mouth curled, and she complained: "Mom, you are also a person who has read books, do you also believe in these feudal superstitions?"
Su Xiaohui's mother burst into tears and said, "If you don't believe it, what can you do, those big hospitals don't have any methods at all, even if you live in a sterile ward, your father's leg is still rotting." ”
At this time, Tang Feng came over and shouted, "Auntie is good." ”
Su Xiaohui's mother was stunned for a moment and looked at Tang Feng, how could this young man in Hani's robe speak Mandarin the same as his daughter?
Su Xiaohui let go of her mother and said with a smile: "Mom, this is the doctor I invited for my father, he is a Chinese medicine doctor, and his medical skills are amazing, Mom, let's go find Dad." ”
Su Xiaohui's mother shook her head and said, "I...... I can't go. ”
Then she smiled at Tang Feng and said, "Come in and have a glass of water and take a rest." ”
Su Xiaohui said: "Mom! Dad's health is not good, and now he has been carried to the mountain, in case there is another cold or something, I am afraid that I will ...... 'M afraid...... Daddy ......."
When Su Xiaohui's mother heard this, she couldn't help but get anxious, and said, "I'...... I'll go and talk to your uncle. ”
With that, Su Xiaohui's mother walked out the door.
The people in the village who were close by blood lived very closely, and after a while, an old man wearing the clothes of the old man Hani walked into the courtyard, thinking that it should be Su Xiaohui's uncle.
Uncle Su was unusually polite to Tang Feng, and after walking to the hospital, he immediately walked towards Tang Feng, shook his hand, spoke in a thick local accent, and said with a sincere smile: "Welcome to Dr. Tang." ”
Tang Feng touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "Uncle, you are too polite." Megumi and I are friends, so I'm your junior. ”
Uncle Su smiled honestly, his teeth were very white, and he thought it was because he drank mountain spring water.
Su Xiaohui walked over and said, "Uncle, where is my father?" I want to ask Dr. Tang to take a look. ”
Uncle Su thought for a while and said, "Wait, wait until Baima finishes praying for your father." ”
Su Xiaohui pouted, but his uncle was different from her parents, Su Xiaohui's uncle had a lot of authority in their family, and this old man had never gone to school, so he had a strong dependence on the Hani tradition, and he had supreme trust in "Baima".
Baima is the name of the Hani clan for wizards.
Su Xiaohui glanced at Tang Feng, and Tang Feng shook his head secretly.
Su Xiaohui's uncle was very enthusiastic, and after greeting him for a while, he left.
At this time, a young man with clear eyebrows came in the courtyard, and as soon as the young man entered the door, he said, "Sister Xiaohui, are you back?"
When Su Xiaohui saw it, he also hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Niu." ”
The two of them held four hands together.
Tang Feng couldn't help frowning when he saw it, it seemed that a pair of childhood sweethearts had appeared again.
Su Xiaohui remembered that Tang Feng was still beside him, so he said: "Oh, Brother Niu, I will introduce you to some of my friends, Tang Feng, he is a doctor, a doctor of the Han people, very powerful." ”
Ah Niu looked at Tang Feng, and Tang Feng could feel the hostility in the young man's eyes.
Tang Feng saw that Uncle Su was gone, so he whispered to Su Xiaohui: "Isn't that Baima treating your father's illness? Let's go and take a look, if your father is still supportive, let's not do it, wait for the wizard to pray for your father before doing it, if your father is in danger, let's be there, do it immediately." ”
Su Xiaohui listened and nodded.
In fact, Tang Feng also wanted to know what the so-called blessing was about, after all, he was still very interested in the medicine of this ethnic minority.
Su Xiaohui asked Ah Niu, "Brother Ah Niu, do you know the place where Master Baima prayed? ”
Ah Niu was stunned for a moment, his face changed slightly, and said, "Sister Xiaohui, you ...... You're going, you're going to go with this person?"
Su Xiaohui was a little confused, so she just said, "Brother Niu, say it quickly." ”
Ah Niu's face sank, and he pointed to the highest mountain and said, "It's in that forest on the side of the Red Mountain." ”
After speaking, Ah Niu had a gloomy face and walked away.
Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui couldn't help but be stunned, and Tang Feng immediately whispered: "Why don't you have any politeness at all?"
Su Xiaohui also frowned and said, "I don't know, he wasn't like this before, he was good to me before." ”
Tang Feng looked at the mountain in the distance and said, "Let's go out immediately." ”
After speaking, Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui said hello to Su Xiaohui's mother, and the two of them climbed towards the red mountain in the distance together.
"You must be the most beautiful girl in your clan, right?" Tang Feng walked beside Su Xiaohui and said with a smile.
Su Xiaohui said: "It used to be, but now I'm old, hey." ”
Tang Feng couldn't help patting Su Xiaohui's little head.
The two of them climbed straight up the red mountain from a rugged mountain road
A river was rolling by, Tang Feng looked at it, and now the color of the river was red, he said: "No wonder it's called the Red River Valley, it turns out that this big river is really red." ”
Su Xiaohui explained: "The rocks at the bottom of the river are all red, and the river water is too clear, so it is naturally red. ”
The two of them walked up the mountainside along the cliff beside the riverbank, and after more than an hour of climbing, they finally came to the dense forest where they prayed for blessings.
However, before entering the dense forest, the first thing Tang Feng saw was a pair of men and women who were embracing each other, the lower bodies of the pair were naked, and the upper body of the woman was wearing a small coat.
Tang Feng was startled, he had already seen the open side of Hani's character from Su Xiaohui, but he never expected that someone would do this kind of thing in the woods at such a time, and besides, didn't that Ah Niu say that there was a blessing activity going on in the woods.
Tang Feng and Su Xiaohui quietly bypassed the pair of women and walked into the woods, Su Xiaohui's face was red, and suddenly, as soon as she stopped, she grabbed Tang Feng's hand.
Tang Feng looked at Su Xiaohui strangely.
Su Xiaohui said in a low voice, "Let's go back first." ”
Tang Feng said: "It's all here." ”
Su Xiaohui's face turned even redder and said, "I...... I suddenly remembered that this kind of blessing activity will have a ...... There will be wild cooperation. ”
Tang Feng didn't know why, and said, "Yehe?"
Su Xiaohui lowered his head, nodded slightly, and said: "This is a custom of our Hani tribe, no, it's not the Hani tribe, it's all the ethnic groups around here, in fact, it's not a bad thing, the ancestors of the ancients were originally intersected in the forest, right?"
Tang Feng nodded suddenly in realization, and then smiled: "Since it's not a bad thing, why do you keep your head down and don't dare to enter the woods?"
Su Xiaohui glanced at Tang Feng angrily and said, "You laugh again, laugh again, I told Sister Xia Huo that you fell on me." ”
Tang Feng couldn't help but touch his nose depressedly, held his face, and said, "Count you ruthless." ”
Su Xiaohui giggled, then stepped forward to take Tang Feng's hand, lowered his head and dragged Tang Feng towards the woods.
