Chapter 19: The Northwest Sword Dance of the Tianshan School (2)
Ren Bujian asked, "What is the origin of this plot Alabutan?" Yu Chi Yunxiao said: "He is the eldest son of the leader of Dzungaria back then, and he is also the nephew of Galdan.
Later, the monk was assassinated, Galdan returned from Tibet, and ascended to the position of the Great Khan of Dzungaria with the support of the Da~Lama and the leader of Heshuot, Ozirtu Chechen Khan. In order to consolidate his dominance in the Dzungar Ministry, Galdan killed Sonomu Alabutan, and secretly sent people to hunt down and kill Arabutan.
Unable to do anything, he led 5,000 people from the old Sangha to flee to the Bortala River for nomadism, and defeated the 2,000 pursuers led by Galdan himself, and separated from Galdan. Therefore, when Galdan rebelled, Arabutan cooperated with Kangxi to defeat Galdan, causing Galdan to commit suicide in despair, and Alabutan dedicated Kaldan's ashes to Kangxi, and later Alabutan officially became the Great Khan of Dzungar.
Like his uncle Galdan, he was also an ambitious master, and his uncle and nephew didn't have any good things. He sent his younger brother Tselingdun Dobsi to conquer the Kazakh Khanate's Touke Khanate, dividing the Kazakh Khanate into three khanates, the Great Yuz, the Middle Yuz, and the Lesser Yuz, and finally all three khanates were subject to Dzungaria. However, if Alabutan dares to trample his iron horse to the place of my Tianshan faction, he will definitely make him come and go. ”
Ren Bujian said: "In this way, this delusion Alabutan is also a generation of heroes. Yu Chi Yunxiao smiled and said: "Who says it's not, people are not wine bags and rice bags, in the past few years, under his rule, Jungger will be much richer than Galdan and Batur Huntaijina." ”
Speaking of this, Yu Chi Yunxiao leaned back and said: "So we are also a rich and beautiful place here, reckless northwest, beautiful scenery, after you are full of wine and food, I can invite you to enjoy the scenery of our Tianshan Mountains." ”
After everyone had eaten, Yu Chi Yunxiao took Ren Bujian and others out, looking at a piece of Tianshan grassland, vast and immense, lush pastures, and could not feel the great scenery in the Central Plains.
Mu Laizhang looked at the scenery of this Tianshan grassland and said: "Such a beautiful scenery, if you don't ride a horse well, it's a pity." Ren Bujian and Duan Feng listened and said, "Okay, that's exactly what I mean." ”
The six went to the horse farm and took three fine Ili horses to the groom. Ren Bujian smiled and said: "I said Brother Duan Feng, people in our martial arts are different from officers and soldiers, they rarely ride horses, and this ability to ride horses is really not good." Duan Feng said with a smile: "If you want to talk about the ability to ride a horse, you still have to look at the chapter, people are the family of Jiangmen, whether it is a horse or a horse, there is no ambiguity." Mu Laizhang smiled when he heard this, pulled Duan Xue on the horse, whipped the horse's back and took a step forward, Duan Feng took Lai Huiran on the horse and followed closely.
Ren Buru looked at the four people who had run out, and then looked at his horse, Chen Zhixiang looked at Ren Buru and asked, "What are you waiting for, let's hurry up and get on the horse?" Ren Buru looked at Chen Zhixiang, Chen Zhixiang looked at Ren Buru and asked, "Don't you know how to ride a horse?" Ren Buru looked back at Chen Zhixiang and smiled bitterly and said: " Let me tell you, I don't want to compete on the ground, and the whole martial arts can be counted with one hand that is more powerful than me, and it is precisely because my kung fu on the ground is so strong that the kung fu of riding a horse is not too much contact. ”
Chen Zhixiang rolled her eyes when she heard this, snorted and said, "Okay, the dignified Ren Buru Ren hero actually can't ride a horse, and the little girl can see it today." Ren Bujian listened and said: "You don't have to be sneering here, telling you that since I was born, there has never been anything that can stump me Ren Buru. Ren Buru said, patted the horse's neck, and whispered to the horse's ears: "Ma'er, Ma'er, meet for the first time, bear with me, don't let me be embarrassed, please give me some face." Ren Buru turned around and pulled Chen Zhixiang on the horse. However, the horse suddenly moved forward, and the two men fell off the horse.
Chen Zhixiang looked at Ren Bujian and asked, "Hey, you, can you ride a horse?" Ren Bujian said: "You can't blame me, if you want to blame, you can blame this horse for being too disobedient." Chen Zhixiang said: "Hey, who just said that there has been nothing that can be stumped since birth, but the result." I've really poured eight lifetimes of blood mold today, and I didn't ride the horse, but I fell with you in the face. Ren Bujian looked at Chen Zhixiang and said, "You have the ability, you can ride it yourself." Chen Zhixiang said: "You don't talk nonsense, hurry up." ”
After a long effort, the two finally got on the horse. Ren Bujian swung his whip and whipped at the horse's back, and the horse suddenly rushed out, startling the two of them, and almost slipped off the horse. Chen Zhixiang hugged the horse's neck, grabbed the reins unruly, and the horse galloped forward with the two. Chen Zhixiang said: "Letting you take me on a horse is simply putting your life in your hands." ”
The two of them rode horses and kept chasing Mu Laizhang Duan Feng and them, Mu Laizhang looked back at Ren Buru Chen Zhixiang's funny appearance and smiled: "Look at these two, they are really drunk." Duan Feng smiled: "It's not, riding a horse is simply asking for the lives of the two great immortals." ”
Ren Bujian grabbed the reins with one hand, protected Chen Zhixiang, and whipped with the other. I gradually found the feeling of riding a horse, and I became more and more stable. ran to Mu Lai Zhang Duan Feng and pulled the reins. Mu Laizhang said with a smile: "Yes, Brother Ren, your horse is getting better and better." Chen Zhixiang said: "He is on the way, and I am about to go to heaven." The crowd laughed.
Ren Bujian asked: "I think this horseback riding is also quite interesting, how about we try it again?" Chen Zhixiang waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, you can't ride a horse just now, you have to compete with Brother Duan Feng of Laizhang, and you still won't let me live." The crowd laughed.
Six people and three horses galloped on this Tianshan grassland, looking at the beautiful blue sky and white clouds, and everyone's mood was as open-minded and broad as this day. Everyone rode horses and sang songs all the way, wandering freely in this landscape.
The six of them returned on horseback, and Wei Chi Yunxiao was discharged from the hospital to greet them.
After everyone dismounted, Wei Chi Yunxiao asked, "How many of you had a good time today?" Ren Bujian said: "Thank you for the hospitality of the head of Wei Chi, we are simply happy." Chen Zhixiang said with a smile: "It's a joy to be dropped while riding a horse." The crowd laughed. Wei Chi Yunxiao said: "Let's continue to play tonight, tonight there is a bonfire party for Junggar herdsmen, and I want to take six people to appreciate the customs and customs of our northwest." Everyone laughed and said, "Okay." ”
And in the evening, Yu Chi Yunxiao took a few people and led Ren Bujian six people down the Tianshan Mountains and arrived at the residence. At this time, the sky has darkened, the herdsmen in an open field, with wooden poles to build a support, in turn piled into a stack, everyone gathered around laughter, to Ren Bujian and other Central Plains people to express a warm welcome.
At this moment, an elder walked out of the crowd, followed by several girls. The elder saluted to Yu Chi Yunxiao and Ren Bujian and said: "We in the whole village and town would like to extend a warm welcome to Mr. Wei Chi and several martial arts training friends from the Central Plains. Several girls stepped forward to offer Hada to Yu Chi Yunxiao, Ren Buru and others, and everyone returned the salute and thanked them.
After everyone turned around, Ren Bujian smiled and said: "The herdsmen here are really good, they are afraid that we will be cold, so they put scarves on us." Yu Chi Yunxiao laughed when he heard this. Ren Bujian asked: "Master Wei Chi, what are you laughing at?" Yu Chi Yunxiao smiled: "This is not the kind of scarf you have in the Central Plains, this is called Hada, which is a courtesy item for the grassland people to welcome foreign guests." Everyone laughed.
Everyone pulled Yu Chi Yunxiao, Ren Buru and others to sit around the bonfire, and everyone played the horse-head qin and sang Mongolian folk songs. Ren Bujian and others couldn't sing, so they clapped to the rhythm.
Chen Zhixiang asked Yu Chi Yunxiao: "Master Yu Chi, why do the herdsmen in the northwest hold a bonfire party?" Yu Chi Yunxiao said with a smile: "This is to say that in ancient times, after people learned to drill wood to make fire, they found that fire could not only cook food, but also scare away wild beasts and protect themselves. As a result, the Mongols at that time developed a sense of reverence for fire. Later, people went out hunting and returned to celebrate each other's harvest, and in the evening, in the process of cooking food over the fire, they would hold hands with each other and dance around the fire to celebrate, in order to express their joy and joy, and this form of celebration has continued to this day, forming a bonfire party. Ren Bujian and the others nodded and said, "So that's the case." ”
The elder said, "The earth is a spark from the horse's hooves, which burns dust and covers the water, the clouds are formed by the horse's hooves that cause the water vapor to float and rise, and the stars are the sparks splashed by the horses' hooves, which shine forever when they rise into the sky, so our steppe peoples in the northwest have an endless love for fire." Moreover, the bonfire party expresses not only the joy of celebration, but also a form of warm welcome of the grassland people to the distinguished guests from afar. ”
The herdsmen came to toast, and Yu Chi Yunxiao said: "Come, I know that several of them are heroes in wine, so when I come here, I have to taste the Mongolian mare's milk wine." And they lifted up their glasses and drank the mare's milk together. Ren Bujian said: "It's the first time I've drunk this wine, the taste is round and smooth, good wine and good wine, I don't know if there is more, I really want to drink more." The herdsman smiled: "As long as you drink well, we will have as much as you want, I'm afraid you will get drunk." The crowd laughed.
The herdsman said: "Singing toasts, making mare's milk wine, and dancing Andai dance are our customs here, and several guests have come from all the way from the Central Plains, and we will send our most sincere welcome." Ren Bujian said: "Thank you for your hospitality, we are grateful." ”
At this time, the young men and girls ran over to pull up Ren Buru, Chen Zhixiang and others, and everyone circled the city around the bonfire. Yu Chi Yunxiao smiled: "Come on, let's dance with them together." ”
Ren Bujian said with a smile: "The people here are really enthusiastic, we have traveled thousands of miles to come here, and we are really happy to meet so many friends from the Tianshan Mountains and the folks of Dzungaria." A young girl said: "Six sons and girls, we here heard Mr. Yu Chi tell you about your experiences and love stories today. Your three pairs of lovers can never leave in so many wars and dangers, some of you have also experienced thousands of hardships and dangers for your sweetheart, nine deaths and lifetimes, we are moved by your steadfast love, I wish you eternal love, a hundred years of good together, and I hope we can find a partner like you. Ren Bujian smiled: "Thank you, I wish you to find your other half as soon as possible." ”
Accompanied by the melodious sound of the horse-head piano, a warm toast was sung, and a chic Andai dance was danced. Everyone surrounded the city in a circle, holding a silk scarf in their right hand, singing and dancing. Everyone followed the rhythm, accompanied by the music, sometimes scarfing and clapping their hands and waists, sometimes flipping, jumping and kicking in the air, sometimes curling up in the air and squatting on the silk, sometimes rushing forward and picking up the silk with their arms, people cheered and celebrated, and enthusiasm and joy were immersed in everyone's heart.
