Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Blood Curse
"You—" The White Wizard said, pointing at me in disbelief.
His actions confused me, "What's wrong with me?" I asked, and Su Liwei also looked at the white wizard anxiously from the side, waiting for him to explain what was going on.
This white wizard hurriedly walked to my side a few steps, and then looked left and right, this is not counting, he actually got close to my body and sniffed around with his nose, if it weren't for the medicine king next to me, I would be anxious, what is this for, how can I look at people like this?
"Medicine King, in my opinion, this child is the blood curse of the black witch!" The White Wizard didn't care about me, but turned around and said to the Medicine King with a frown.
The Medicine King couldn't help but exclaim: "What? Blood curse? Are you sure? ”
"Yes!" The White Wizard looked at the Medicine King very firmly and nodded.
"This can't be, huh? Heiyan Miao Village has always been trapped by us in the 100,000 mountains, cut off from the outside world, how can Tianyou be hit by the blood curse? Besides, it's impossible for a dark wizard to leave Heiyan Miao Village? The Medicine King changed his usual calm and affectionate feelings, and obviously asked with some excitement.
The white wizard shook his head helplessly, and did not speak, for a while, the people in the room fell silent, and Su Liwei and I looked at each other, so we had to wait.
After a long time, the Medicine King spoke: "You just arrived here, and you are not familiar with Miao Jiang, let me tell you, you will understand what is going on!" ”
The word Miao Jiang first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, we call ourselves Miao descendants, there are actually many ethnic minorities in the whole Miao Jiang, the two largest are black Miao and white Miao, most of the black Miao are Yi people, and most of the white Miao are Bai people. There are also green seedlings, red seedlings and so on.
The origin of the Miao people is very complicated, our ancestors migrated from the middle reaches of the Yangtze River to the southwest, and assimilated the ancient Yue people and some ethnic groups in the southwest to form the Miao people. In the 5th century, the southwest was ruled by the Fu clan. It was not until the Sui Dynasty that a southwestern local secession regime was actually formed.
During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains regime successively set up 92 prefectures in the area ruled by the plan. In the twenty-sixth year of Kaiyuan, Tang Xuanzong named Pi Luoge, the leader of Wuman, as the king of Yunnan, and then Pi Luoge unified the Wuman and Baiman tribes to establish the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Nanzhao was a slave frontier ethnic regime established by the Wubarians and the Baibarians in southwest China. Nanzhao's initial foreign policy was originally intended to rely on the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains. However, at this time, under the manipulation of Yang Guozhong, Xuanzong implemented a policy of sowing discord among ethnic minorities and making them conquer each other in order to raze and destroy them. As a last resort, Nanzhao sided with the Tibetan side of the fierce conflict with the Tang Dynasty at that time.
However, Nanzhao also continued to make overtures to the Tang Dynasty. The tens of thousands of troops sent by Xuanzong to conquer were killed by Nanzhao to the point that no armor remained, and Nanzhao also buried the corpses of the Tang army's dead soldiers in battle, and erected a monument in front of the mass graves to show such helplessness.
After the Anshi Rebellion. The contrast between the Tang Dynasty and the Tibetan Liliang was clearly on the side of the Tibetans, who not only occupied the two imperial palaces of the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Courtyard (equivalent to Gansu, Xinjiang and Mongolia west of present-day Shaanxi), but also entered Chang'an. forced Emperor Tang to flee. Therefore, in order to cut off the right arm of Tibet, the Tang Dynasty changed its policy towards Nanzhao.
Nanzhao also suffered from the bullying and exploitation of Tibet. The two sides hit it off, and the relationship was much warmer than at the beginning. Nanzhao soon became powerful, ruling over southwestern Sichuan, south of the present-day Dadu River. All of Yunnan and the vast area of northwest Guizhou. He even conquered Burma and Cambodia in Indochina.
The early days of the establishment of Nanzhao. The second generation of Nanzhao Wang Ge Luofeng forcibly migrated the Baiman, who was originally distributed in central Yunnan, to the northwest of Yunnan, making the Cangshan and Erhai areas the economic and cultural center of Nanzhao, and it was also here that the Bai people grew up as a nation. In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Nanzhao also raided Chengdu and plundered more than 30,000 craftsmen and residents, and the jishu and knowledge of these Han people promoted the development of Nanzhao, so that its political system was deeply influenced by the Central Plains, and its culture and education were mostly imitated by the Central Plains.
Five dynasties and ten kingdoms in the second year of the Later Jin Dynasty. Duan Siping, the surname of Bai Man, established the Dali Kingdom on the ruins of the Nanzhao regime, which was an ethnic minority with the Bai ancestors as the main body in present-day Yunnan. Its ruling area extends east to Hengshan on Pu'an Road. It is west to Jiangtou City in Myanmar, south to Lucang River on Lin'an Road, and north to Dadu River in Luoros. The political system is basically the same as that of Nanzhao, but the social economy has developed greatly compared with Nanzhao.
Dali has always been with the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty. In 1253 AD, in order to defeat the Southern Song Dynasty, the Mongols marched into Dali to form a siege of the Southern Song Dynasty. The prime minister of the Gao clan led his troops to resist being killed, and the king of the Duan clan fled and was later captured. Kublai Khan named the last king of Dali as the hereditary governor of Dali, managing the area near Dali City, and named a son as the king of Liang, hereditary governor of Yunnan. Later, Yunnan Province was established. Duan was grateful to Kublai Khan for not killing him, and recruited the white barbarians and the Wuman's children to form the "Inch White Army" to assist the Yuan army in the battle, and made a lot of achievements in the Jiangnan battlefield.
After Zhu Yuanzhang rose, he sent troops into Yunnan and let Mu Ying (the ancestor of Mu Jianping in "The Legend of Deer and Ding") Yongzhen Yunnan. At this point, the Duan clan of Dali withdrew from the stage of history, and the country of Dali has also become the past in people's memory.
When the medicine king said this, he sighed lamentingly, drank the tea in the cup, and continued to tell a little helplessly, after the Ming Dynasty, our Miao people were ruled by the Central Plains, and many of them were unwilling to accept this reality. ”
At that time, the Miao people were divided into two factions, one faction was to accept the reality, and the other faction was stubbornly resisting to the end, but in the end, the people of the other faction had to hide in the 100,000 mountains to live.
"Because those people have been fighting with the Central Plains people for many years, they have changed their witchcraft more, and they are all vicious techniques that kill people, this is what we call the black witch lineage, because our ancestors are unwilling to participate in the struggle, the black witch also has a murderous intention against us, so we began to study how to solve the Gu, and it has become the current white witch lineage!" Seeing that the Medicine King was no longer talking, the White Wizard continued.
It turns out that the black and white witches of the Miao people are like this! Today is a bit of popular science!
"Does this have anything to do with me?" I asked with some puzzlement, how come these two seniors who have been talking about the history of the Miao people for a long time seem to have nothing to do with the blood curse just mentioned?
"Of course it has something to do with you, what you have in you is a blood spell that can only be cast by a dark wizard! If you fall under this spell, you will be permanently marked, and your body will emit a special smell, and if you are found by the Black Miao people, you will definitely use all means to kill you! The White Wizard said heavily.
After hearing this, I couldn't help but fight a cold war, this time I can get into trouble, permanent mark? Don't you have to be careful everywhere you go in this life? No wonder the Medicine King told me not to walk around!
While I was thinking about it, the Medicine King spoke again: "In order to protect the other Miao people, we will work together to drive the people of Heiyan Miao Village to the depths of the 100,000 Great Mountain, and send people to guard the exit of the 100,000 Great Mountain, and prevent them from coming out. It stands to reason that you won't be tricked by them, right? ”
