    Hengkong Muye showed a bitter smile and said: "The current Nanzhao can be said to be a mess between us and your country. It is also like the weeds that grow again in the spring breeze. After they subside for a while, they will reappear and never appear again."  Rest."

    Looking at Long Ying, he continued: "The situation is complicated, especially the countries outside the Great Wall. The various tribes are sandwiched between our two powerful neighbors, each acting for their own short-term interests, and each holding its own territory for hegemony.  As it continues to expand, the chaos of the situation can be imagined. As for the mountainous situation and political and economic environment of Nanzhao, Mr. Xixun has been on many missions and is more knowledgeable than me. He can explain it to you."

    Everyone¡¯s eyes moved to Xixun.  The senior foreign minister of Tibet coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and said calmly: "The matter must start from the early Tang Dynasty of your country. Let's talk about its mountain and river situation first. The Lancang River rushes down from the plateau to the southwestern part of your country.  In Yunnan, south of the junction between our territory and your country, and east of the Lancang River, is one of the two largest lakes in Yunnan, the Xi'er River, also known as Erhai. The other large lake is Dianchi, which is not smaller than the Erhai Lake and is located  Southeast of Erhai Lake, thousands of miles apart. Erhai District and Dianchi Lake District form the two major economic regions of the so-called Nanzhao District. The geographical environment between Erhai Lake and Dianchi Lake is complex and the transportation is inconvenient. In this environment, countless ethnic groups gather, and you can  No matter how you remember it, it¡¯s impossible to remember so many clan names.¡±

    Long Ying, Wan Renyu and Feng Guoting exchanged glances and began to feel how impossible it was to find a "dream image" in this vast area.

    Wan Renyu said: "How did the name Nanzhao come from?"

    Xixun said: "'Zhao' means king, and Nanzhao is just a general name for the Zhao people in the south. It generally refers to the six Wuman tribes living in the Erhai area, namely the Mengxu Zhao, Yuexi Zhao, Langqiong Zhao, and Wei Sui.  Zhao, Shi Langzhao and Mengshe Zhao. Among the six imperial edicts, Mengxu Zhao and Yuexi Zhao are the most powerful. Mengshe Zhao is located in the south of all the imperial edicts, and is the only tribe that has never had any dissatisfaction with your country until today.  "

    Long Ying said: "My mother! It's just that the intricate relationships between these six tribes have given people a headache, but Sir Xixun seems to have all the treasures in his family. It's admirable."

    Feng Guoting asked humbly: "Besides the Wuman tribe, is there any Baiman tribe?"

    Xixun replied in his usual leisurely and contented manner: "Wuman and Baiman are the two major ethnic groups in the Erhai and Dianchi areas. They are both Cuan people, and they are divided into east and west Cuan. The east Cuan is called Wuman, and the west Cuan is called Bai.  Man and Wuman live in the Erhai District, while Baiman live scattered around Dianchi Lake. To tell whether they are Wuman or Baiman, just look at the clothes of their women. Wuman women all wear black clothes. The clothes are long and trailing to the floor; Baiman  Women like to wear white clothes, which are no longer than the knees and expose part of their vagina, making them easily identifiable."

    Long Ying asked with great interest: "Is this the origin of the names Baiman and Wuman?"

    Hengkong Makino smiled and said: "I'm afraid no one knows this." He then told everyone: "My brother, when he heard the word 'woman', he immediately became energetic and no longer worried about having a headache."

    Everyone smiled.

    Xixun said: "Except for women's clothing, Wuman and Baiman are different in many aspects. From a cultural perspective, Baiman is more influenced by your country. They use your Chinese characters and the language is similar, just like your country."  It only takes a little time to learn the regional dialects of the country. They are easy to pronounce and know how to farm and raise silkworms. The Wuman people mainly live in livestock, do not know farming and weaving, and have no cloth. They use cow and sheep skins to make clothes."

    Wan Renyu said: "I'm sure that on the battlefield, Bai Manfei is no match for Wuman."

    Hengkong Makino nodded and said: "This is indeed the case."

    He sighed again: "Everyone is in high spirits, and the conversation is in full swing. But you have to leave tomorrow, and if you insist on keeping Lord Ying, I will blame Mexiunafu to death. Sir Xixun had better keep your story short."

    Long Ying smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Da Lun, Mei Xiunaf has decided to accompany my little brother on a journey, so in addition to tonight, there will be at least ten more nights."

    Hengkong Makino said in astonishment: "Why don't I know?"

    Long Ying said: "This was a decision she made just before I arrived. It was not an easy decision for her to put the child down for many days."

    Hengkong Muye said to Lin Zhuang: "You personally select five hundred elite soldiers to accompany me on the road to ensure that my daughter comes back safe and sound. On the way, you can explain our 'Operation Elite' in detail to my three brothers in Hengkong Muye."

    Wan Renyu said in surprise: "What elite soldier operation?"

    Hengkong Makino said: "It's just a temporary term for a military plan. I wanted to say it tonight, but now it saves me the trouble."

    He gestured to Xixun and asked him to continue speaking.

    Xixun said: "The biggest thing that Baiman and Wuman have in common is that they both believe in the ghost religion. The great shaman and chief priest of the ghost religion are called ghost masters. Each tribe has its own great ghost master. Originally he was only responsible for the sacrificial rituals, but nine years ago  , but unexpected changes occurred.¡±

    ?Hengkong Makino said solemnly: "This change is directly related to the former king's conquest of Nanzhao."

    Xixun said: "Let's not talk about this aspect for now. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the country has become very powerful. Yaozhou and Rongzhou have been established successively, and they have jurisdiction over thirty-two Jizhou. At this time, the six imperial edicts of Erhai are all subject to your country.  By the time our power in Tubo fell into the hands of Lu Dongzan, we were pursuing an expansion strategy and constantly encroaching on the Jifu prefecture and vassal vassals established in your western border. By the third year of your country's Emperor Gaozong Longshuo, we had destroyed Tuyuhun and there was no longer a barrier between us and your country.  , then taking advantage of the victory, he sent his troops southward, expanded to the Sichuan and Yunnan areas, and extended his power directly into the Erhai area. Except for the Mengshe imperial edict, the other five imperial edicts all surrendered to me, Tubo, which is tantamount to betraying your country."

    Hengkong Makino smiled bitterly and said: "But we didn't have good results. The plateau is sparsely populated, and the Qiangtang is an uninhabited area, which is not suitable for farming. Therefore, we eat whatever we conquer, which overwhelms the conquered area and changes over time.  , when we failed in the four towns of Anxi and there was chaos in the country, the tribes in Erhai District took the opportunity to resist and defected to the Zhou Dynasty. Regardless of which side they went to, they just wanted to gain backers and support. They were not really willing to surrender to the Six Imperial Edicts of Erhai District.  For me, the first priority is to unify the six imperial edicts, then develop towards Dianchi Lake, and finally establish a powerful country that covers the entire Yunnan, including Erhai Lake and Dianchi Lake."

    Xixun said: "The empress of your country had an accurate assessment of the situation. In the fourth year of Chui Gong, she restored the governor's palace of Yaozhou and increased the garrison strength. The tribes of Sichuan and Qinghai in Tubo were originally surrendered to us because they could not bear the frequent conquests.  and heavy demands, they all returned to your country one after another. The empress took the opportunity to send envoys to the Erhai area to actively consolidate, and ordered all the tribes in Erhai to return to the Zhou Dynasty one after another. This is the current situation. "

    Wan Renyu let out a long breath and said, "It's not easy to understand. I really didn't expect that the situation in Nanzhao is so complicated."

    Hengkong Makino continued: "Just when we have no time to take care of ourselves and your country is still beyond reach, the most powerful of the six imperial edicts, the Mengxunzhao and the Yuejizhao, have undergone an unprecedented change, that is, the two major tribes  At the same time, they work together to select a common ghost master. This person is named Zong Mi Zhi. Not only does his martial arts surpass the Six Zhaos, but he also has the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods. Whether it is the master of Meng Xizhao, Yang Zhao, or the master of Yue Jizhao.  Bo Chong, both regarded him as their teacher. Therefore, although Zong Mi Zhi is the high priest of the two tribes, in fact his status has surpassed the heads of the two tribes and has decisive influence. This man has great ambitions and is the pioneer to unite the two tribes.  We sent out troops and successively attacked many strongholds within our borders, forcing the late king to go on a personal expedition."

    Not sure if he recalled the past, Hengkong Makino sighed deeply and said: "We drove down from the plateau with overwhelming force and great momentum. The leaders of the two clans were frightened out of their wits. Only the Zongmi intelligence group retreated.  As a strategy, he also advocated a head-on battle, saying that with the inspiration of the gods, this battle would be victorious and undefeated, the enemy would return without success, and the enemy leader would be punished by ghosts and gods, and his life would not be saved. Of course we didn't understand it at the time, but we don't understand it now.  It¡¯s crystal clear. His eighteenth generation ancestor, Zong Mi Zhi must be from Dajiang Lian.¡±

    ??

    Long Ying smiled and said: "Then it depends on whether we can kill him and destroy his pretense of pretending to be a ghost."

    Hengkong Makino said happily: "I have to rely on my brothers to help me get rid of my bad breath. There is still a few hours before dawn, so everyone has a rest. Tomorrow I will give you a ride and accompany you for half a day."

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Of farewell to you in the end.

    Sixteen days later, when they finally reached the mountain road on the lower plateau, Long Ying and Mei Xiunafu reluctantly parted ways, and the guide appointed by Lin Zhuang led the three of them to continue their journey.

    Long Ying was not worried about Mei Xiunafu, because she had her heart set on her, and everything would be fine if she had a son. However, he had been repeatedly warned that he must go to the plateau as soon as possible to pick up their mother and son back to the Middle Earth.

    Arriving at the west bank of the Jinsha River, the guide returned to the plateau. The three of them camped on a high ground, watching the turbulent currents of the Jinsha River. On the opposite bank is Shigu Town, known as the "First Bay of the Yangtze River". It feels like returning to  The taste of country is indescribable.

    ¡°Long Ying and Feng Guoting both revisited old places, and they were particularly touching.  Longying was even more crazy thinking about the Tiger Leaping Gorge not far away.

    Wan Renyu asked Feng Guoting, "Have you still had that strange dream?"

    Feng Guoting said dejectedly: "I don't even have half a dream. I seem to have suddenly lost the ability to create dreams. Some of them are also fragmented and cannot be sorted out."

    Wan Renyu didn¡¯t know how to comfort him and was speechless.

    Feng Guoting sighed: "Are we talking nonsense? In such a vast and complex area, looking for a dreamy river valley, will we ultimately get nothing and be in vain? A dream is just a dream, and it has nothing to do with the real world.  .¡±

    Wan Renyu finally found words to comfort him and said:??Your dream is not an ordinary dream. I have never had the same dream several nights in a row.  "

    Feng Guoting said: "Perhaps I have thoughts during the day and dreams at night. Because I was inspired by the sky stone, my head still refused to rest at night. The dreams are just random thoughts in the head after the body is asleep. His grandma's! I am in pain  I have to want to commit suicide. Alas! Just saying, for Ying'er, I will never seek death, because it is the most precious thing she left to me. Seeing it, she seems to be still alive."

    Long Ying and Wan Renyu exchanged glances.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
