Chapter Ninety-Two: The Thatched House

Miaojiang refers to some places in southwest China, including Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Chongqing, Guangxi and other provinces and cities. lwχs520.

After discussing with our group, we decided to buy four train tickets to Yunnan first. Go to the Miao Xinjiang in Yunnan to find out. In some remote mountainous areas of Yunnan, the geographical conditions in these places are very harsh and unsuitable for human survival, but because the Miao people have been suppressed and inhumanized by the rulers for a long time, they have to flee to such mountainous areas to survive.

Therefore, it is customary to call these relatively remote places with poor living conditions as Miao Jiang, and these areas have been inhabited by Miao compatriots for generations.

After a long and bumpy journey of three days and three nights, our group got off the train in search of a guide who took us to a remote village and hurried away.

Later, under the guidance of a fellow villager in a local village, we finally arrived at the foot of a barren mountain with a rare population with traces of the legendary Miao Jiang descendants.

It was at the foot of a barren mountain in Yunnan Province. The specific name is extremely difficult to remember because of its cultural relationship with ethnic minorities. Translated into Chinese, it is indecent, so I don't describe it.

At the foot of that barren mountain, there are more than 20 villagers, all dressed in the costumes of ethnic minorities. In terms of appearance, most of their clothing patterns are based on various living objects in daily life. In terms of shape, the kind of clothing they wear adopts the traditional Chinese line drawing style or almost line drawing style, with a single line as the outline of the pattern. From the perspective of the craftsmanship, there are five forms in the history of clothing development, namely weaving, weaving, sewing, assembling and tailoring.

This kind of costume is exemplified in the costumes of the Miao people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other countries, and the historical hierarchy is clear, which can be called the costume system zuò history exhibition hall. From the point of view of color, they are good at choosing a variety of strong contrasting colors, and strive to pursue the richness of the color and the heavy sense of brightness.

The clothes on their bodies are generally red, black, white, yellow, and blue. From the point of view of composition, it does not emphasize the prominent theme, but only focuses on adapting to the requirements of the overall sense of the garment. In terms of form, it is divided into full dress and casual dress. Dress, a costume worn for festival protocols and weddings, is intricate and gorgeous, and concentrates on the artistic level of Miao costumes. Casual wear, the style is quieter and simpler than the dress style, with less materials and less labor, for daily wear.

All in all, their costumes give me the feeling of being in ancient times. However, Zhou Zhou Xian didn't seem to be interested in the costumes of the villagers in the mountain village.

His eyes were looking around ahead, as if waiting for someone important.

I naturally knew that he must be looking for the Miao Jiang guide he said before, according to him, his Miao Jiang guide friend was deeply familiar with Miao Jiang witch Gu, head lowering and other mysterious techniques.

I don't bother him at this time, and leave it to him to find it himself, and I am sure that it will not be long before he will free us from our state of curiosity.

Sure enough, just as we were curious about their costumes, Zhou Zhou Xian seemed to have noticed something, and he pointed to a deserted thatched hut not far ahead, and exclaimed at us: "Right there, my friend is right there." Fast...... Come with me to him. ”

When we heard him say this, we all immediately cheered up and followed behind Zhou Xian with their heads held high.

I looked up in the direction of his right hand and couldn't help but frown. I found that it was a very simple hut, covered with a thick layer of weeds, and chillingly, the thatch on top of the hut had begun to rot and yellow, and I could clearly see that sewage was seeping out of the hut.

To be honest, I found it hard to believe that there were still people living in such a damp and deserted thatched hut.

If the friend of his who Zhou Zhou Xian said really lives in this kind of place all year round, then it is not difficult to imagine that this friend of his is quite able to endure hardships.

When Yamaguchi Momoe saw such a dilapidated thatched house, he covered his mouth with his hands and looked at Zhou Yixian and me with an expression of disbelief.

After being surprised, she took a deep breath, and then slowly lowered her hands, pointed to the dilapidated thatched hut and said, "This ...... Can this place still be inhabited? It's the 21st century, and there are still people living in thatched huts? It's unexpected...... Totally unexpected......"

Colonel Will smiled and said, "This is the most remote and poor place in northwest China, Miss Yamaguchi Baihui, you must know that there are poor people in any country or region. No matter how much the outside world changes and how the economy takes off, isolated and remote areas like theirs will never improve, and they are willing to be isolated from the world. Actually, there's nothing to make a fuss about. ”

Momoe Yamaguchi listened to Will's words and turned to look at me, apparently asking me if what Will said was correct.

I spread my hands and sighed, indicating that I did agree with Colonel Will.

Momoe Yamaguchi was a rather intelligent young woman, and she immediately understood what I meant.

She froze in place, and after a while, she shook her head and sighed. A compassionate look.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhou Xian coughed heavily, and then said slowly: "Let's go to the hut first to see that friend!" ”

He had barely finished speaking when he immediately walked towards the abandoned thatched hut.

Faced with this situation, we naturally have to follow closely behind Zhou Zhou Xian.

Zhou Zhou Xian took a deep breath and pointed to the wooden door of the hut, as if he was about to knock.

However, for some reason, when it was time to come, he did not knock on the wooden door.

Just when I was feeling strange about this, Colonel Will, who had always liked to make trouble, immediately rushed from behind to Zhou Xian.

He shouted, "Why don't you knock on the door!" If you don't knock, please let me knock it. ”

Will stretched out his hands as he spoke, then clenched them into fists and pointed them at the wooden door of the thatched hut to knock on it.

Seeing that his fists were about to hit the wooden plank, suddenly Zhou Xian stretched out his hands and intercepted his fists.

Will was shocked and angry, and he cried out angrily, "What are you doing? Do you want to stop people without knocking on the door yourself? ”

Not to be outdone, Zhou Zhou Xian glared at Will fiercely, then let go of his hands and said, "You fucking know a fart, do you think the old man doesn't want to knock on the door?" Do you know how many traps there are on this door? ”
