Chapter 890 Lip Plate Clan 【First Update】

"But Ethiopia is very poor, with such a beautiful scenery, the per capita income is only about one-tenth of our Longxia people."

"Or it should be said that the countries in East Africa are very poor. Some of the reasons are due to political turmoil, some are due to government corruption, and some are due to interference from other countries."

Jia Long saw that the topic was boring, so he quickly changed his words before it was too late.

"It may be because their economic activities are not strong enough, otherwise these beautiful landscapes may be destroyed, so there are advantages and disadvantages, we just need to look at our scenery."

Although it's just driving, you can still have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of Omo National Park.

In fact, most of the people who come here are self-driving tours or tour group cars, because the best scenery is on this kind of driving.

"The place we are in now is called the Omo Valley, which belongs to a section of the Great Rift Valley in Africa, with a depth of thousands of kilometers. Because it is too large, we cannot see any "valley" symptoms in it. This area can only be discovered at very high altitudes, even in outer space, and it is a valley-shaped terrain."

"Everyone has also discovered that the surrounding mountains and forests are dense, and the trees and grass are lush. But these are illusions. Because the rainy season has just passed, the vegetation here is very dense. After a while, the grassland will gradually die due to the dry season. Inside the Pianguang Mao River Valley, the green will gradually become the past, and the whole will present a lifeless semi-desert shape. Wait until the next rainy season, and the green will reappear in a few months, and so on every year.”

The climate and vegetation scenes are different from Longxia and even most countries, so that the audience listened with gusto.

Jia Long also talked about unpopular knowledge points about African vegetation and animals from time to time, so that the topic would not be repetitive and boring.

The performance of the Hubiao car is excellent, and it does not feel strenuous in the process of crossing mountains and ridges. The better control feeling also allows Jia Long to relieve the pressure of driving, and can devote more energy to appreciating and explaining the beautiful scenery.

The poorly paved asphalt road, because it was built only a few years ago, has not been damaged much, so it is not bad to drive.

"Wow, look at the road ahead, it is occupied by a lot of sheep."

Jia Long suddenly pointed forward.

A drone filmed the past.

In front of the road, there were a large number of domestic sheep with yellow and white fur rushing in the opposite direction, the total number was about a hundred.

And there were only three blacks driving the flock, and two of them were half-children.

"This kind of scene is normal. The breeding industry in Ethiopia is a pillar industry of the country. They earn foreign exchange by exporting various livestock meat, and they make a lot of money, so it is not surprising that there are a large number of livestock farmers."

Jia Long drove a Hubiao car, carefully approaching the flock of sheep coming from the opposite side.

These sheep are of different sizes. Adults have a shoulder height of about 1.3 meters and a weight of [-] to [-] kilograms. They are considered very good meat animals.

"This kind of sheep should be an optimized hybrid sheep breed, so I can't tell their names. But it can be seen that they should have the genes of South African Boer goats in them, which is a very good meat sheep."

"There are as many as 500 million Boer goats around the world, and the whole world is trying to optimize new breeds of Boer goats to meet the breeding conditions of their respective countries. Probably this kind of goat is one of them."

The three sheep drivers stopped the sheep from rubbing against the tiger's body.

They are all wearing bright cloth-like clothes draped diagonally, which are very ethnic.

This should be one of the original peoples living in the Omo Valley.

Two and a half kids with colorful paint on their faces looks kind of scary.

They found that the driver sitting in the car was actually a woman of yellow race who was rarely seen, and they couldn't help but stared at her in amazement.

Jia Long smiled.

But absolutely never talk to them first, nor meet their eyes.

She did not resume her speed until the flock had passed.

"When facing these African primitive peoples, you don't know what their taboos are. It is best not to deal with them too much without the presence of translators and outsiders. Sometimes even if you just show goodwill, you will be punished. The other party regards it as provocation or weakness, and then takes actions against you to ask for money, or even to get more ideas from you."

"The best thing to do is my kind, be friendly but keep a certain distance."

Because of traffic problems in the Omo Valley, there are not many tourists, and there are even fewer foreign tourists. Therefore, for foreigners who are not familiar with their places of life, the indigenous tribes who live a slash-and-burn, extremely primitive life are dangerous. sexual.

And some of them have learned to demand money from tourists, and will resort to violence if they are not satisfied.

"Huh? Look, there is a group of primitive ethnic women walking on the road ahead. They have plates in their mouths. I think we have encountered the strangest and most famous indigenous race among the local tribes."

"They're called lip-pan tribes."

Jia Long drove the car, catching up with the Lippan woman in front of her.

These are five African women carrying earthen jars.

"Uh, the picture is a bit inappropriate for children."

Jia Long noticed that they were all naked from the upper body, or wore bright cloth strips that exposed half of their breasts.

This is a characteristic of many indigenous races in the area, and it is not shameful for them to show their breasts.

However, Africans are not in line with the aesthetics of the Longxia people. In addition, their looks are too weird at the moment, and no one will have any affection for them.

Just in case, Jia Long only let the drone screen lightly sweep over a little side of the lip group.

There was no way she would stop anyway.

"See, each of their lips has a round clay plate, and the earlobe has a similar plate. This is the characteristic of the lip plate family. This ethnic aesthetic is only beautiful for women with lip plates, so women will wear lip plates. There are lip discs. The method is to cut off the lower lip when you are a teenager, and then insert a smaller lip disc, and then change the lip disc every year. Finally, the bigger the lip disc, the more women in this race are. Treating her as a beauty is quite bloody and cruel..."

"Maybe we Longxia people and people in other parts of the world can't understand their methods, but for the Lippan people themselves, these are part of their ancient culture, and it's hard for others to say anything."

"I just heard that because of the influence of foreign cultures and getting used to civilized society recently, not many young women of the lip-pan tribe will do this anymore. Of course, I personally welcome this, because it makes people How painful this lip disc is, and after getting the lip disc, the mandibular teeth have to be removed, making it impossible to eat normally. What's more, all these operations are performed in the original state, no matter whether the lip is cut or the teeth are removed, Without anesthesia at all, I dare not even think about the pain."

What Jia Long himself said made her scalp tingle, and she deeply felt that she was lucky enough to cross Jackie Chan's summer girl.

If she transmigrated into a woman with a lip plate, at least for her, it would be a bit painful.

It seemed that the audience in the live broadcast room thought so too.

"Wow, it hurts just thinking about it."

"Why don't you take a clearer picture? I don't have any feeling for the figures of African women, but I want to see the appearance of people with round lips."

"Cutting lips? And knocking out teeth? God, is this all done without drugs?"

"I scared my sister to death. Fortunately, my sister is not a woman from the lip-pan clan, otherwise I would cry to death."

Jia Long continued to drive forward after passing the women of the lip-disc tribe with crock pots on them.

"Actually, don't think it's weird. The world is more weird than this, and there are many bloody customs that affect a wider range of people. For example... circumcision."

Talking about these topics, Jia Long himself felt gloomy.

"Circumcision is divided into male circumcision and female circumcision, but most female circumcision is done for religious reasons, or the so-called 'virginity' in custom."

"The circumcision crowd is not limited to the population of the Panlip tribe. In Ethiopia where I am now, as well as several major African countries around it, as well as the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and even parts of our Longxia area, there are circumcisions. Phenomenon."

"Especially in Ethiopia, the coverage rate of female circumcision is almost [-]%. You know, this country has a population of hundreds of millions, so you can imagine how many women have suffered the pain of circumcision."

"This kind of painful torture for women is really not justified by customs or religion. Anyway, I am extremely disgusted with this kind of behavior. As for what circumcision is, you can look it up online. , because sensitive topics cannot be involved in the live broadcast room, so I won’t say more.”

Jia Long's heart is heavy when it comes to circumcision.

The world looks beautiful, but there are many dark sides in reality.

Long Xia is definitely not as bad as many sycophants feel, in many respects he is already good enough.

At least the status of women is high enough, except for a very small number of religious fanatics, other women do not have to suffer such as circumcision.

"Wow, that's scary to say the least."

"Meng Longlong, don't talk anymore, my sister's heart is beating wildly."

"Fortunately, I was born in Longxia, otherwise I would have died a miserable death."

"Anyway, Long Xia has a civilization of thousands of years. Even if there were similar unreasonable customs in the past, they have long since disappeared under the baptism of super ancient civilization."

"What the hell is going on in the head of someone sending their children to be circumcised? It's scary."

In the barrage in the live broadcast room, barrages were quickly brushed up.

Fortunately, most of the Longxia people are atheists, and there is no religious fanaticism.

If Jia Long’s criticism of circumcision was made in a religiously fanatical country, he would definitely be criticized, and might even be besieged to death by fanatics.

"Okay, this is the end of these topics. You see, there is an open area in front of you. There are many people wearing aboriginal costumes here. The women of the lip-shaped tribe just now should also come here."

"I think I know where this is. It should be their market."

[The rhetoric in this chapter is just a personal opinion, and some religious fanatics should not criticize it.Because no matter how much it is approved, I cannot accept circumcision. 】
