When Liu Juan found Yi Bingshui, he found out that she drank the water from Zimu River.

In reality, Zimu River is located in Milan Town, Ruoqiang County, Xinjiang.

Zimuhe mentioned in "Journey to the West" that there are no men in Xiliang women's country, and women can go to fetch water from Zimu River to eat after they grow up, and they can become pregnant after eating. Tang Seng and Bajie didn't know it. In the middle of the day, he accidentally ate the water from the Zimu River. In the end, Wukong went to Jieyang Mountain and took the water from the birth spring to get through the difficulty.

Before the Ruoqiang writing reform, it was written as "Nv Ruoqiang", with a female character next to it, which was related to the legendary daughter country.According to historical records, Nvruoqiang is a tribe of Qiang people led by "Nvruo", a tribe ruled by women, and their residence is today's Ruoqiang County, Bayingoleng Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang.The Qiang people were a very unfortunate nation in history, and their tragic fate seems to be implied from the creation of characters...

The historical records of Xinjiang probably began when the Queen Mother of the West ruled the Western Regions.It was a long matrilineal era, so there were some daughter countries.

Tang Xuanzang wrote in his "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty": "There is the country of Sufa, Qukoudanluo, and the Jin family of Tang Yan...that is, the country of Dongnu. The kingdom of Tubo is connected to the kingdom of Khotan in the north." In the 7th century AD, this daughter kingdom was destroyed by the invading Tubo kingdom, and some people fled to Qamdo, Tibet, and it is still called Dongnu kingdom.

"Sui Shu amp;#8226; Biography of the Western Regions" records: "The country of women is in the south of Congling, and the country is dominated by women. "Gathering", I don't know political affairs. Domestic husbands only do conquest."

Before the Ruoqiang writing reform, it was written as "婼qiang", with a female character next to it, which should be related to the legendary daughter country. "Han Shu amp;#8226; Biography of the Western Regions" said: "According to the name of the tribe, Qiang is used to show the race." That is to say, the Rao Qiang is a tribe of the Qiang people headed by "Rao", and a woman is in power. tribe.

The Qiang people were a very unfortunate nation in history, and their tragic fate seems to be implied from the creation of characters.

From oracle bone inscriptions, gold inscriptions and small seal script to today's regular script, it can be seen that "Qiang" has a "sheep" on it, and a "person" on the bottom, which is a prominent totem mark of "human adorned with sheep's head".

"Shuowen Jiezi" says: "Qiang is also a shepherd of Xirong." All these show that the Qiang people are a nomadic people who worship sheep in the northwest.

Sheep are docile and kind. They eat grass and don't compete with others, let alone hurt others. They can eat meat and skin.Therefore, when the ancients offered sacrifices, sheep were always placed on the altar, and the altar (the pictographic character is "show") shows + sheep = auspiciousness, and it is "auspicious" to kill a sheep and offer it.

Love houses and birds, kill sheep to people, and the Qiang people who worship sheep are completely unlucky.There are many "Qiang" characters in oracle bone inscriptions, all of which are records of killing, burning, and burying Qiang people as sacrifices. Among them, at most, 1000 Qiang people were killed at the same time as sacrifices.

There are also some "Qiang" characters drawn with ropes in the oracle bone inscriptions, and "" in regular script, which should indicate the captured Qiang people.

Now that there are words specifically referring to Qiang captives, it can be inferred that there should be many concentration camps where Qiang people were held.

Sheep have been domesticated in China for more than 6000 years, and mutton is one of the main sources of food for the ancestors.

Burning the whole sheep is called roasting the whole sheep today, and it existed more than 3000 years ago. The word "lamb" in oracle bone inscriptions is the best testimony: there is a sheep on the top, and four fires on the bottom, which is exactly a line drawing of a roasted whole sheep.

The ancestors could not live without sheep. They regarded sheep as their wealth and beauty. As long as they glued on the edges of sheep, they would be happy in their hearts, so sheep + big = beauty.

The ancients loved sheep and couldn't do without sheep. After eating the lamb, they often used the sheep's bones as ornaments, and even put the sheep's horns on their heads.

However, beautiful things are often the most vulnerable, and the fate of "Qiang", a variant of "Qiang", is even worse. "Book of the Later Han amp;#8226; Biography of Xiqiang" contains: "The origin of Xiqiang...the difference between Jiang's surname." It means that "Jiang" and "Qiang" are originally one character, and they are called "Jiang" when they are surnames. , which was called "Qiang" when it was the family name.

It can also be said that "Jiang" is a female Qiang, and "Qiang" is a male Qiang. In the era of matrilineal clans, female Jiang had a higher status than male Qiang.However, after the reform of the language, the meaning of "Jiang" no longer represents the female Qiang, but only represents the surname "Jiang" of a person.

"Ruoqiang", as the name suggests, is the place where the Qiang people live.But this is not the case: During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the main residents here were the Luobu people, and the Qiang people were driven to the ancient Rao Qiang country in the southern mountainous area.

Beginning from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Qiang people in Ruoqiang disappeared mysteriously, and the Uighurs gradually became the main ethnic group in Ruoqiang.

After the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, Hui, Tibetan and other ethnic groups moved in. In Ruoqiang County, as of the end of 2005, according to statistics, Han people accounted for 59%, Uyghurs accounted for 47%, and Hui, Mongolian, Manchu, Dongxiang and other ethnic groups , but there is no sign of the Qiang people.If there is no Qiang without Qiang, just like the fate of "Jiang", the name is in vain.

The Qiang people in Ruoqiang disappeared quietly. Where did they go?No one can definitively answer.Through DNA research, today's Han, Tibetan, Qiang, and Miao all have deep blood ties with the Qiang people.

The Qiang people have been continuously assimilated by other ethnic groups, resulting in a sharp decline in population. Today, most of the more than 30 Qiang people in the country are concentrated in the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan and the Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County of Deyang.

The Qiang nationality is a nation full of disasters, and the Yaoqiang tribe is even worse. The word "婼" seems to foreshadow the ending of this tribe: in "Modern Chinese Dictionary", "婼" has two pronunciations, one is ruo and the other is chuo, which means "unsatisfactory".

The "婼" next to the female characters brought bad luck to the Rao and Qiang tribes. There is a general rule of Chinese characters: the pronunciation agrees, and the meanings of characters with the same pronunciation are generally close to or even the same in part.

The sounds of "婼" and "weak" are similar, and the essence of "婼" is weakness.

"Rao" is a weak leader, and finally took her tribe away inexplicably.
