Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Herdsmen

"Brother Zhou, what do you mean by multiple cases?"

Liu Chuan followed behind Zhou Rui and asked him, Granda must be her mother, the mother's general term for mother in the world, but when these two words are overlooked, everyone can't understand them.

In Tibetan, it is often the name of the Tibetan mastiff by the Tibetans, which means a big dog tied up at home, but this mastiff king can't be stopped. ”

Zhou Rui explained casually, and at this time, the little girl's voice also called out the adults in the tent, and a Tibetan man wearing a lambskin hat on his head and a sturdy body greeted everyone.

After the golden Tibetan mastiff saw the Tibetan man, he immediately pounced, affectionately licked the man's face with his tongue, the man saw the gauze wrapped on the forelimbs of the Tibetan mastiff, and immediately understood in his heart that it was these guests who gave themselves multiple injuries, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, for Tibetans, a purebred Tibetan mastiff in their home, no less than the status of an important member of the family, these foreign guests helped the Tibetan mastiff, is the greatest respect for them.

When the Tibetan man walked to a place five or six meters away from everyone, he stopped, stretched out his right hand and took off the hat on his head, bent forward with his upper body, and the hat in his hand almost hung down to the ground. ”

Everyone was a little surprised to hear that this Tibetan man was actually speaking Chinese, although he spoke a little stumbling, but they all understood what he meant, but for the etiquette expressed by this man, Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan and others did not know how to return the salute.

Zhou Rui knew that the etiquette of the man just now was the courtesy of the Tibetans to the most distinguished guests, or to the elders, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, stepped forward, bowed and returned the salute, and said, "Disturb the warriors on the grassland." ”

At this time, several people in the tent next to him came out, and in the tent that Renqing Cuomu came out of, a woman in her thirties, holding a few snow-white Hada in her hand, walked out, and it seemed that she should be Renqing Cuom's wife.

In some Tibetan areas where sinicization has been more serious, almost all guests will offer Hada, but for these herdsmen on the grassland, they offer Hada, but they regard each other as the most respected guests, and the husband and wife brought Hada to everyone one by one, and then let the group into the tent.

From the outside, the tent does not seem to be very big, but after everyone enters, they find that the space inside the tent is very large, and it is even divided into two small rooms, and a stove is lit in the middle of the tent, which makes the tent full of warmth, and the place for entertaining guests is very large, and more than a dozen people sit around it, which does not seem crowded at all.

Because Renqing Cuom knows Chinese, it is not difficult for everyone to communicate, his wife's name is Baima, which means lotus, and the little girl who is ** years old is called Dawa, but it means moon, which is a family of three.

Xiao Dawa had a few pigtails on his head, his red face was a little obvious plateau red, and he tilted his head to look at the puppy in Zhuang Rui's arms, his eyes were full of good looks.

Renqing Cuom also knew the experience of Zhuang Rui and others in rescuing the golden retriever Tibetan mastiff at this time, and after hearing Liu Chuan's story that Zhou Rui alone suppressed the Tibetan mastiff to heal it, he quickly stood up and said to a young man beside him: "Danba, tell the people in the nest that today I am going to hold a grand banquet to entertain my most honored guests, and let Maqin prepare cattle and sheep on the next day, so that our guests can feel the enthusiasm on the prairie." ”

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, and then heard his shouting, and the whole tent area immediately became lively, and in the tent, the hostess Baima also prepared butter tea, took out a few small wooden bowls with silver edges, and placed them in front of everyone one by one, and after the water on the stove boiled, he immediately poured tea for everyone.

Along the way, everyone listened to Zhou Rui talk about the customs of the Tibetans, and knew that this tea must be drunk, and it must be drunk more than three bowls, except for Zhou Rui, everyone is not very accustomed to this butter tea, and reluctantly drank three small bowls, and Liu Chuan's guy drank five bowls alone, and praised this tea while drinking.

Only Zhuang Rui knew that Liu Chuan's thoughts on finding Tibetan mastiffs must have fallen in this Tibetan area.

After Qin Xuanbing and the girls finished drinking tea, they chatted with Bai Ma on the side, they were very interested in the decoration in the tent, and praised the silver jewelry on Bai Ma's head from time to time, Bai Ma giggled, and the tent was full of cheerful atmosphere.

Zhuang Rui also put the puppy in his arms on the ground at this time, but this little guy seemed to be too attached to Zhuang Rui, just circling around Zhuang Rui, but he was disdainful of the jerky in Xiao Dawa's hand, and everyone who saw it was amazed.

"This may be the result of a cross between our family and other people's families. ”

After looking at the little guy, Renqing Cuom said uncertainly, the estrus period of the Tibetan mastiff is only once in winter, and many of his family are mastiff kings in this area, with many spouses, and many puppies will be born every year.

Zhuang Rui was not disappointed after hearing it, he liked this little guy with human nature more and more, and besides, large dogs are not allowed in the city, and after he returned to Zhonghai, he was not lonely with this little thing.

"Brother Renqing Cuom, everything is ready, please come over. ”

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

After everyone went out, they came to the center of this nest, and found that in the open space there, a big tent was set up, more than 100 square meters, many people were busy going in and out, and there was a shout of slaughtering cattle and sheep next to it, and a group of Tibetan dogs gathered around, picking up and eating the liver of cattle and sheep thrown out.

Entering the tent, a long row of tables and chairs had been set up, and Zhuang Rui and the others were given up to their seats, accompanied by Baima, while Renqing Cuom stood at the door of the tent to greet the guests, and after a while, the people in the nest gathered over.

Some herdsmen who know Chinese are all around Zhuang Rui and others, listening to Liu Chuan's big bragging, and these simple men who are fooling are stunned for a while, and during this period, they even changed the joke of Wu Song fighting the tiger to Zhuang Rui killing wolves, so that from time to time some young Tibetans ran to Zhuang Rui, gave a thumbs up, and patted Zhuang Rui's shoulder.

After a while, the guests invited by Renqing Cuomu came, he stood up and said a toast, and then toasted Zhuang Rui and others, even Qin Xuanbing and several ladies were not spared, but the cup in front of them was relatively small, several people followed Zhou Rui's movements, took the wine glass with both hands, and then took the cup in one hand, and the middle finger of the other hand reached into the cup, dipped it lightly, and flicked it with his thumb and middle finger to the sky, which means to worship the gods, and then, come to the second and third times, respectively, respect the ground and the Buddha.

When drinking, he is also very particular, he has to take a small sip first, Renqing Cuomu immediately pours the wine, fills the cup, then drinks the second sips, then fills it again, then drinks the third sips, and then fills it again, and then drinks the full glass of wine.

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

After two or three hours, the banquet was over, Liu Chuan, who was a little drunk, held the wolf skin in both hands, and presented it to the host Renqing Cuom on the spot, which made all the guests look at Renqing Cuom with envy, you know, such a gift is difficult to get on the prairie, and it also shows the respect of the guests for the host's family.

As the host, Renqing Cuom also drank a lot, and when he stood up, he was already a little swaying, but his face was very happy, and after bowing his head and saying something to Baima, he took the gift from Liu Chuan with both hands.

At this time, the golden retriever Tibetan mastiff suddenly ran in, first to Zhuang Rui's side, rubbed Zhuang Rui with his big head, and then lay at the feet of Renqing Cuom, this scene made the people in the tent amazed, everyone knows that Renqing Cuom's family is the most noble, except for Renqing Cuomu's family, no one cares, and these guests, are also brought by this head, and now they are actually showing favor to Zhuang Rui, and also make everyone's attitude towards Zhuang Rui, more and more respectful.

"Brother Liu Chuan, Duoqi is our friend, I hope you can treat them well in the future, and the goddess of the snow mountain will bless you. ”

Little Dawa followed the golden retriever Tibetan mastiff into the tent, and she also held two black puppies in her arms, Liu Chuan's eyes lit up, and sure enough, after Renqing Cuom took the cubs, he gave them back to Liu Chuan as a gift, which made Liu Chuan's wine suddenly wake up for the most part, and he couldn't wait to immediately send the two little Tibetan mastiffs who had not opened their eyes back to the incubator he had prepared in the Humvee.

These two little Tibetan mastiffs are the descendants of the golden mastiff king, even if the mated female mastiff breed is not so pure, these two little mastiffs are also priceless, and Liu Chuan has that kind of performance.

"Brother Renqing Cuom, can you let us see the riding skills of the grassland warriors. ”

After Liu Chuan and Renqing Cuom finished exchanging gifts, Zhuang Rui opened his mouth and said to his master.

"No problem!" Renqing Cuomu agreed very simply, and immediately asked someone to arrange it.

The winter nest of the Tibetans is also built in a place surrounded by mountains on three sides, so that it can not only shelter from the wind, but also effectively prevent the attack of wolves, but after the mountain col, it is a steppe with a flat river, there is no tree, but the cattle and sheep are herds, the grass is a group of sheep, the horses are like rolling clouds dotted between the distant mountains and near the water, and the white clouds in the blue sky reflect it, almost indistinguishable, trance as in a dream.

Liu Chuan walked to the entrance of the village, and put the two little Tibetan mastiffs on the Humvee car, but Zhuang Rui kept holding the little thing, he had an arm injury, and there was no way to ride a horse, what he said just now was for Qin Xuanbing, and in the past few days, he also knew that Qin Xuanbing loved to ride horses.

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

"Brother Liu Chuan, how about we come to horse racing. ”

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

Liu Chuan is so big, that is, when he was in the park, he rode on those old horses with lost teeth and took pictures, where did he dare to answer this, but Qin Xuanbing said on the side: "I'll compare." ”

"Okay, you're Bam of women, but you can try it out with Dawabi. ”

In Tibetan, Bam means heroine, but although Renqing Cuom said this, he refused to compete with Qin Xuanbing, but pushed his daughter out, which is also the pride of Tibetan men.

Qin Xuanbing was a little hesitant, comparing herself with a **-year-old child, even if she won, it would be faceless, but she didn't know that the children in the Tibetan herdsmen's family grew up on horseback, and their skills were not much worse than those professional horse racing horse masters.

Dawa's mother Bai Ma came over with a few saddles on her back, and after hanging the saddle on a white horse with pure white coat, she led it to Qin Xuanbing, looking at the tall and handsome white horse and the endless prairie, Qin Xuanbing didn't care about trying to compete with little Dawa, turned over and rode up.

Xiao Dawa rode a jujube red horse, and after letting go of the speed, it was like a red lightning bolt passing through the green grass, and Qin Xuanbing's skills were really good, he actually followed closely behind Dawa, and was not thrown away, two shadows, one red and one white, chasing each other on the grassland.

At this moment, in addition to Zhuang Rui, the rest of the people were also on the horse, Renqing Cuom whistled and rushed out first, followed by Zhou Rui, and then Bai Meng'an, his equestrian skills were actually very good, and his decent movements were never left behind, only Liu Chuan and Lei Lei were a little embarrassed, their bodies were staggering on horseback, and Zhuang Rui laughed below.

The golden Tibetan mastiff heard the whistle of Renqing Cuom, and also rushed out, and for a while the horse neighed and the dog barked, and the hearty laughter of everyone resounded on the grassland.

After leaving this winter nest full of good memories for everyone, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, but it was only more than four hours away from Naqu, and they could have rushed to Naqu to spend the night, and Liu Chuan's purpose of entering Tibet this time was also achieved, and there was laughter and laughter in the Humvee.

The ladies were happy that before leaving, Baima gave them a fine piece of silver jewelry, which may not be very expensive, but it was definitely impossible to buy outside, which was enough to make them feel that the trip was worthwhile.

Bai Mengan also sat in the Humvee, but his mood was not very high, compared to Liu Chuan, who was making a father for the two puppies, and Zhuang Rui, who was teasing the little guy, it seemed that Bai Mengan's trip to Tibet was not so good.
