Love on campus: the protector of beauties

The belief in family gods exists in some Miao people in Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan dialects, that is, they set up idols of "family gods" in their homes.Sacrificial bridges are popular in most parts of Southeast Guizhou.The dragon is also the object of worship and sacrifice of the Miao people in various places.

Totem worship.Many Miao and Yao peoples in the eastern region worship Panhu (a kind of divine dog) together.They have told the story of "God Mother Dog Father" from generation to generation, and they regard Panhu as their ancestor.Some Miao people in the central region believe that their ancestor Jiangyang originated from the heart of maple tree, so they regard maple tree as a totem.In other areas, the Miao people worship water buffalo and bamboo as their totem worship objects.

Ancestor worship occupies a very important position in Miao society.They believe that although the ancestors are dead, their souls will always be with their descendants. They must offer wine and meat to their ancestors during festivals and festivals, and even their daily meals should always be respected to their ancestors.Ancestor worship ceremonies are held regularly or irregularly in many areas. In western Hunan, there are "knocking stick pigs" and "spine cattle worshiping ancestors". In southeastern Guizhou, there is "eating guts". , Northeast Yunnan has the custom of beating old cattle.Among them, eating guts in Southeast Guizhou is still popular and is the most typical.Eating Guzang is also known as the Drum Festival, Drum Club Festival, and Guzang (Gu Zang) Festival. It is held every seven or 13 years with the clan (drum club) as the unit.They believe that the souls of the ancestors live in wooden drums, and the drum sacrifice is to beat the wooden drums to summon the souls of the ancestors to enjoy the offerings of their children and grandchildren.The officiant is called Gudangtou, and the sacrificial Gudang cattle are specially bred for this purpose.Each sacrificial activity lasts for three years.

The Miao people believe in witchcraft.The main witchcraft activities include overcasting, divination, judging by gods, ghost sacrifices, etc. In addition, there are Gushu and so on.Witchcraft activities are hosted by wizards.Wizards are mostly non-professional.They play the role of hosts in the aforementioned various primordial worship and witchcraft activities, and some local wizards also serve as village elders.In addition to being familiar with sacrifice methods, most wizards can also tell about the genealogy of their clan, major historical events of their own nation and the route of migration origin, familiar with various myths and legends, ancient songs and lyrics and folk stories, and some wizards also have singers and dancer functions.Therefore, wizards are important inheritors of traditional Miao culture and play the role of intellectuals in Miao society.In addition, wizards also master certain medical skills and know some herbal medicines. While exorcising ghosts, they are supplemented by scientific medical methods.

In addition to these primitive beliefs, since modern times, as Western missionaries have gone deep into the interior of our country to preach, some Miao people have converted to Christianity in the border areas of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, Kaili in Guizhou, and Yuanling in Hunan. The Hmong believe in Catholicism.After the founding of New China, the influence of Christianity and Catholicism declined for a while, but there has been a certain recovery trend in recent years. <It's a little far away to talk about the calf>

Ah Man clasped his hands together, with a devout expression, he waved towards the holy cave.It can be said that this is simply a series of twists and turns, stop and go and keep praying.

Originally, the bones of this body were relatively weak, and those women in Luohua Cave walked here without eating or drinking, and even kept praying, no wonder they were relieved after persisting here?

Maybe only a small number of people will return home alive, dreaming that one day, the so-called god will come to save them.

However, thinking of Ah Man's end in the end, Tian Yi always felt very unbearable in his heart.Will her final fate be a pile of bones in the open air?
