Chapter 219: "Far Journey" (6) Walking in the Land of Xiaguang

Chapter 20: The Bame

...... The ethnic groups inhabited here are very chaotic, not to mention the belief that the beliefs are divided into the Smoke Faith and the Xiaguang Faith, and the Guan is ethnic group includes the Safisi people who have seen before, as well as the newly discovered Bamei and Bacha people.

The Bacha people should have a deep relationship with the Safissi, but because they clumsily imitated the civilization of the south, which distinguishes them from the Safisi in the north.

Although the Bamei people also believe in sunset and smoke, I actually found a tribe that believes in sunset, and some of the language of the Bamei people more or less reminds me of the Midas.

Star God, could it be that this was once the area where the barbarian compatriots of the Medas were active?......

...... In the autumn of 1487, we rescued a man who was not a Safisi but a Bame who claimed to be the son of a powerful tribe of the southern Bame, who had been reduced to this place because of a power struggle within the tribe. We knew from his mouth that his tribe had people who had been to civilized countries, so we decided to help him return to his tribe first. ......

...... After some ordeal, with the help of the male leader, the victim managed to return to the tribe of the Bame and solve some of the problems that their tribe had given him.

In contrast to the tribes of the Safisis in the north, this tribe had a semi-productive armed man, a very small number of administrators, and alliances with surrounding tribes. It can be said that they already have some prototypes of countries. ......

...... Their leader, a cheerful man, told us that in the far south there was a country of the Banips, a very powerful force that had been expanding northward for a few years.

Because of the fear of the expansion of the Banip, the previous chiefs of their tribe united with more than a dozen other tribes to jointly attack the Banipu people, and fought hard for more than ten years, but in the end they still failed, suffered heavy casualties, and had to continue to retreat further north.

At the time of that war, the leader was only a large soldier, and because of his defeat, he was taken prisoner for a while, and the walls that had been built for the Banipu for five years were returned to the tribe.

However, by now, the Banipu people had not expanded further north for more than ten years, so the two sides got along fairly well and established commercial relations.

It just so happened that it was the season of trade in the near future, and the leader was very generous enough to let us join their caravan and follow their tribesmen to the big tribe to make peace, and then trade with the Banips together. ......

...... Relations between the Bmay and the Bacha were very tense, and I saw a clash on the way. However, both sides of the conflict cautiously separated our caravan from a certain range, and finally we walked through the conflict unharmed. ......

...... The Great Tribe, as the Bamei chieftain speaks, is actually a bazaar, with officials set up by the Banipu, as well as diplomatic representatives of the Bame, and of course, the Bacha.

When I first heard the term diplomatic representative, I thought it was just an envoy, and I thought I was contemptuous of this position. But then I found out that I was wrong, that the diplomatic representative here was in fact the "representative of the foreign relations of the community", in other words, he was dealing with the Banipu people on behalf of all his tribes of the same culture.

And this position is not chosen by the Bamei themselves, but appointed and removed by the Banipu people. There are five such positions, one from the Safisi and two each from the Bame and the Bacha.

After holding this position, the tail of that tribe was lifted to the sky, and the inhabitants of their tribe were extremely proud in the face of the other people who came here.

There is already a mature and civilized ethnic group here, and the Banipu people have appeared, which means that it is not far from reaching the real city. ......

...... I was surprised to talk to a Banipu porter, the Banipu people do not have an independent country, they are ruled by the country of Bam, the country of Xiaguang, and when it comes to the group of Bafirks in the south who believe in Xiaguang, this Banipu porter has a disgusted expression.

In the short conversation I had with him for more than ten minutes, the word "glowing bastard" appeared repeatedly, and it was clear that the Banipu and the Bafilk people had a deep grudge. ......

...... Continuing to the south, I found that among the barbarian tribes in this area, there are many Banipu people, who are attached to the tribes of the Bacha people and Bamei people, forming an unusually large Banipu expatriate camp. Any house with a particularly high level of skill in building must be the house of the Banipu expatriate. ......

...... This time the last day was spent not in the desert of the desert, but in a tribe of the Bacha people. Although this tribe is a tribe of the Bacha people, it is a few Banipu expatriates who preside over the festival ceremony.

The Banipu believe in smoke, so in their rituals, the venue can be made smoky and all the people are blurred.

Through their eulogies at the ceremony, I learned why this group of people were here.

According to the Banipu who presided over the ceremony, the Banipu people originally lived in the fertile and fertile Banipu Mountains, and when it rained, the fairy mist would wrap around the surrounding towering peaks, making it look beautiful.

However, with the advent of the Age of Blood Mist, a group of traitors in the south turned their backs on the faith of Smoky and chose Xiaguang as their new faith, and they no longer used the name of Bafilk, but changed the name of the country to Bam.

In Bam, a country that believes in the light of the sun, I still feel that it is a powerful country with a sharp edge, despite the narrator's various words to denigrate the country.

Bam put an end to Bafilk's bloody mist - and so on, it seems that another Heffie surrendered to Nippel in the north and fought against the Smokers in the south.

When Bam surrendered to Nippur, he chose the method of "pardon", Bam allowed Nippur to maintain a high degree of autonomy and maintain faith in smoke, as long as Nippur could comply with Bam and provide Bam with taxes and military service, this is the "Nippur Amnesty", which is also the origin of the name of the Banipu people.

This situation lasted for 300 years before it changed, and by this time the southern Bafic had declined, so Bam thought it was unreasonable to continue to maintain this kind of amnesty.

Another region similar to Nipur was Parr, who accepted Bam's orders, but Nipur firmly refused and contacted Eurono in the south to fight Bam.

The struggle between Nipur and Bam lasted for more than a decade, and eventually Nipur lost its status as a pardon district, and the glow faith began to enter Nipur. Many Banipu people, who could not stand this reality, fled to the north and fled to the tribes of the Bame and Bacha people to become expatriates.

Considering this part of their history, it is understandable why they resent the glow and resented Banip. ......

...... In the summer of 1488 I finally reached Adejas, inhabited by the Banipu people, belonging to the territory of Bam, a land of civilization.

This time through the wilderness, although the distance was longer than the last time, but the difficulty was far less than the last time, perhaps because of luck, and I have grown a lot.

Either way, civilized, civilized! You deserve to be praised by me in a thousand languages!

Chapter 21: Ardyalt-Tanalai-Meadow-Nippur

...... One of the characteristics of the statues of Adjalts is that all the statues related to the god of smoke are old and heavy, while the statues related to the god of light are mostly brand new. ......

...... I feel that the criticism of Bam by the Banipu people in the large tribe is a bit exaggerated, and from what I have seen and heard in Tanlai, Bam does not have much persecution for the smoke faith, and the Banipu people can still continue to worship the smoke god at home, but the altar has been replaced. ......

...... The Banipu people were not wrong about the beauty of the misty peaks, and when I passed through Meadow, I was lucky enough to see the misty mountains after a rain, and the scene made me wish I could live here forever. It's a pity that my hometown is thousands of miles away from here, and I don't know if I will be able to see this beautiful scenery in my lifetime. ......

...... The last day of 1488 was spent in Nipur, the place where the name of the Banipu people originated, the city of Nipur, which has many places of interest and is quite a glorious city. ......

...... It's a pity that I only saw two of the five scenic spots in Nippur, and among the other three scenic spots in the guide's office, one of them was not open to idle people, and the other two were destroyed in the war a hundred years ago, which is a pity. ......

...... Banip's year-end celebration was quite interesting, and you could actually see the smoke and glow on the same stage.

The general process is as follows: the sacred white fairy mist gave birth to the Bafilk people, and the nobles, commoners, and slaves are all kneeling down to worship the smoke; the fairy mist turns into a smelly blood mist, and the Bafilk people cry in the blood mist; the glow like fire pierces through the blood mist like a sharp sword, and the Bafilk people kneel and pounce on the glow.

Well...... Although I still praise the glow at the end, this is the first time I have seen a scene of the Banipu people having sacrificial smoke in public.

After watching the festivities, head back to the inn, hoping that the trip in 1489 will go even more smoothly.

Chapter 22: What Kish-Nikha-Zachu Sees

...... In the pure territory of Bam, there is no shadow of smoke, and of course there is another reason why I don't see smoke worship, probably because I only went south along the coastline, and did not go to the interior to see. ......

...... A bustling city, on par with Roman Hefei. This is because although Bam is only more than 500 years old, the Bafirks are more than 1,000 years old, and they are not much more than Hef. ......

...... The country of Bam was prosperous, and the war was far away from its inhabitants......

Chapter Twenty-Three: A Strange Distribution of Ethnic Groups

In fact, it's not bad now, but it was strange more than a hundred years ago before Bafilk didn't die. A country whose name is Bafilk, but whose main ethnic group is the South Bafilk, and whose country where the Bafilk people are the main body, is this Bam.

Because of the dispute between the belief in Xiaguang and Smoke, this cultural circle has torn the Bafirk people into three parts, the Banipu people who believe in smoke in the north, the Bafirk people who believe in Xiaguang in the middle, and the South Bafirk people who believe in both faiths in the south. ......
