Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 1452 History of Ethnic Migration

This is the first village below Baiheliang. It is still hundreds of kilometers away from the Baidi City in Fengjie at the entrance of the Three Gorges. There are hundreds of villages and towns along this section, including the three major counties of Fengdu, Wanzhou and Yunyang. Not to mention too many, there are three towns, Qingxi, Luoyun and Baoluan, facing each other across the river from Guangzhenxi Town.

In addition to Zhenxi Town, there is a stilted building along the river in Qingxi Town that is also very unique, and there is a Wenchang Palace in Luoyun Town.

From the perspective of Zhou Zhi and later generations, these things are valuable for preservation. Unfortunately, the current conditions and abilities are extremely limited, so they have to be given up.

The town government is at the intersection of the stone road along the river and the stone step road from the dock. The layout is similar to that of Fubao Town. The station is still on the hillside, which is also the future center of the new town.

The town government looks very old. It was remodeled from the old teahouses along the river. Even now, there is an old teahouse next door to the town government, and the government's daily boiled water comes from there.

The publicity work on the Three Gorges Project seems to have been done well, and the town is also very supportive of the Three Gorges Cultural Protection Project.

The reason is very simple, because for any relocation involving cultural preservation, the Cultural Preservation Foundation pays a fee to the local area, and if calculated alone, this fee is more than what the state pays.

Today's people are not complicated in their thinking. In order to support the country's major construction, they move whenever they need to.

The state has provided relocation fees and allocated houses and land. Things that cannot be moved here are originally at the disposal of the town government.

Now a cultural preservation fund has come and wants to give a sum of money to dismantle doors, windows, etc. This is considered as a free moving fee.

The town government courtyard is very cool. There is a big banyan tree outside the courtyard with its branches extended in. The mayor simply moved the tables and chairs from the teahouse next door and placed them under the shade of the tree. They brewed tea and everyone chatted.

Nowadays, college students are still relatively precious. Zhenxi Town has not had any college students until now. Now there are a lot of them. They even humbly asked the mayor about the local customs, which made the mayor feel very honored.

Compared with several surrounding towns, Zhenxi Town has also produced three generations of literary stars. Therefore, the mayor feels that he has a tougher stance than the surrounding towns. In his words, Baoluan Town wants to compete with his own town for "Ba Qing". The title "Hometown" is full of complaints.

"I'm not just talking nonsense." The mayor said loudly while holding a big teapot: "We have unearthed two Han tombs here. A lot of small pottery figures and pig pens were unearthed at that time. Horses, these.”

After speaking, he took out a bunch of keys from his waist and handed it to Zhou Zhi. Zhou Zhi took it and took a look and found that in addition to the keys, there were also several copper coins strung on the keychain. They had become shiny and golden after long-term friction. Qianwen - "Five Baht": "Look, this is the small coin picked up from the tomb at that time. Can they have it in Baoluan Township?!"

"Now Baoluan Township says that the character "Bao" at the beginning of its township should be the character "Ba". It should not be pronounced as "Baoluan Township", but should be "Baluan Township", which means the phoenix flying out of Bajun, which refers to the widow Baqing. , there’s no reason for that!”

"That is, although finding cultural and historical context from place names is also one of our working methods, it also needs to be supported by cultural relics and local historical records, and cannot be fabricated at will."

"That's right!" The mayor felt very proud after receiving the support, and handed the big cattail leaf fan he used to Zhou Zhi: "What the college students said is correct! The expert teacher who came to us before said that we have But the place that existed before the pre-Qin Dynasty was the former site of Zhixian County, Bajun, Chu State. It was not until the Eastern Jin Dynasty that it was moved to Fuling."

"To put it this way, the earliest relocation of the Three Gorges should have started at that time?" Lin Wanqiu also had a strange mind and actually connected the two things. "Eh? If you want to say that..." The mayor was stunned for a moment: "It seems to be true, huh?"

"If you say so, then the Dragon Gate Formation can be made older." Zhou Zhi fanned a big cattail leaf fan and let Jiang Shuyi, who was sitting next to him, take advantage of the breeze: "Back then, there was a king in the ancient Shu Kingdom. Legend has it that he was a Jing man, and that is what he is today. People from the Hunan and Hubei areas, after the death of the turtle spirit, the body went up the river, came to life again in Chengdu, met Du Yu, the king of Shu at that time, and became Du Yu's prime minister."

"Because he came from a water town and was good at controlling floods. He calmed down the floods in the Minjiang River and allowed the Shu people to live in peace and work diligently. So Du Yu gave the country to him and made him the king."

"Wangcong Temple!" Zhang Xinyi finally remembered after hearing this: "Du Yu is Emperor Wang, and Turtle Ling is Emperor Cong. They were mentioned in the "Travel Notes of Wangcong Temple" written by Zhou Zhi. story."

"Actually, this is an area called the 'Yangtze River Cultural Belt'. A series of civilizations in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River entered the Minjiang River along the Yangtze River. Then along the 'Minjiang Cultural Belt', they brought civilization to Shu. In ancient times, the ancestors of Shu Before the passage into the Shudu Plain was discovered, ancient Shu tribes were established in Pixian County, Guanghan and other places along the river. Later, they followed the Minjiang River passage from Songpan and other places to the foot of Helan Mountain at the eastern foot of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and turned around along the The "Weihuang Cultural Belt" moved eastward again and finally came into contact with the Chinese civilization in the Guanzhong area."

"With this passage, Chinese civilization also reacted along it. Finally, in places like Sanxingdui and Yahe River, a unique civilization landscape was formed where the three styles of native civilization, Yangtze River civilization, and Yellow River civilization converged in one place - ancient civilization. Shu Civilization.”

"Speaking of which, the migration of people in the Three Gorges area began at that time. The earliest Baodun site was more than 2,500 BC, when it was still the period of the Five Emperors. It was almost the late Huangdi period in history books, and in archaeology The intermediate transitional period between Yangshao Culture and Longshan Culture, the middle period of Liangzhu Culture, the beginning of Longshan Culture, and the first four hundred years of Erlitou Culture.”

"So old..." The mayor was very happy: "Then these ancestors decided to rest here back then! Next time I meet people from Baoluan Town, I will move the Dragon Gate Formation forward! "

Like all places that are close to rivers and streams, Zhenxi Town is extremely rich in aquatic products. There are many fishing boats gathering at the mouth of Zhenxi River. The vegetables grown by the townspeople are also very fresh, which gives Huang Lin an opportunity to develop. .

A rock carp and a white eel, which are rarely seen in later generations, let Huang Lin make a sweet and sour rock carp dish and a braised white eel dish.

Then they braised the white eel. In the mouths of Li Laosan and Lin Wanqiu, it was the authentic Cantonese dish of braised black-eared eel. This allowed Zhou Zhi to find new evidence that high-end cuisine is compatible.

However, it is not a good thing to avoid spicy food all the time, so Zhou Zhi simply made a topping of sweet and sour watercress and shared it with his friends to eat with rock carp.

Lin Wanqiu gave it a try, and then directly brought Zhou Zhi's dipping bowl in front of her.

When Li Laosan saw this, he said to Fang Wenyu: "Wenyu, give me your share. You can learn how to make elbows and dip into a bowl with Xinxin."

Jiang Shuyi, who was sharing a dipping bowl with Zhou Zhi, suddenly blushed and refused to share another bowl with Zhou Zhi.

Zhou Zhi is very angry. Even delicious food can’t stop your mouth. You just eat it. Why do you say it? !
