The first time I met Wadi.

As soon as the sun left the top of the mountain, the stream was already hot and dry. Trucks swarmed like ants, spraying brake water, creaking and not quiet at all.

Xiaoheyan ferromanganese factory has slept all night, and at this time, its eyes are still sleepy, but it is also buzzing, showing its loud noise in the hinterland of the mountain.

The motorcycle passed through the black stone bridge, and the noise finally gradually disappeared in the ear, and the mountains in the west became clear one by one.

Baidu map shows that there is still 18.2km from Poding River to Wadi Township Government. Although you can vaguely see the houses on the top of the mountain, the mountain road is as straight as chicken intestines, but it is not steep. Along the way, Tonamiyama is secluded, the air has not choked the nostrils, and it is even sweet.

? The "Wadi" township named after the Yi nationality was born in the late Ming Dynasty and died in the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. It became a "grain wharf" (grain depot), hence the name, the white-dug grave still exists today.

Wadi Township is located in the south pole of Yuanjiang East, facing Niujie Town and Yilong Town of Shiping County across the river in the east and Langdi Town of Honghe County in the southwest. Because of the high altitude, the average annual temperature is 22 degrees, which is very pleasant and not as hot as Yuanjiang County.

Being in the mountains in all directions, it is as simple and calm as a mountain, and it is affectionate and harmonious.

Isn't it?

The terrain on the top of the mountain is still uneven, and there are several ridges of paddy fields under the oil depot at the head of the road, which are winding and undulating. The figure of transplanting rice seedlings began to weave their own green dreams. Then there are scattered shops on both sides of the cement road, which is not a market day, so there are few customers.

The township government is on the southwest hillside, and then a series of offices of various units are chained up. On may day, everyone has a holiday, so it's quiet. On the contrary, the spring breeze lingers in this valley, showing the vitality of nature.

Ponds, stone bridges, earthen paws of houses, ridges, sunshine, smoke from people's cooking and pictures of villages are my first impressions of Wadi Village.

Into the village, the house is unpretentious, and the wall foundation of the house is mostly absorbent stone. Although the stone absorbs water, the house is dry, and even fine ferns and grasses have settled in the pores of the stone, and the earthen house is eye-catching.

The picture house has a sense of crossing, so I walk at will. I stood on the head of Zhaishixiang in the depression, and a thin old woman was taking a nap in front of a house. The footsteps woke the old man, and she was stunned by the strange face in front of her.

I said, is there a Shiping man here?

Yes, yes, the whole village under the depression is basically the descendant of Shiping people, and I am! The old man replied casually. She recognized my Shiping accent and cheered up. Go for a walk, I'll take you there!

Just a few meters away, the old man took me into an old house and said that he was hard of hearing, had a bad memory and couldn't speak clearly. Let our old Jing Ying speak, because she knows a lot, and she is also the teacher of our Wu Temple!

Lao Xu Jingying has just finished lunch. She exchanged pleasantries with me for a while, turned to the small building and dug out a family tree of Yang's name for me to see, while opening the chatterbox and talking about Shiping people and depression.

The old man first talked about the Yang family. His wife, surnamed Yang, left a few years ago. The Wadiyang family came from Yangjiazhai, Shiping, and their ancestor's name was Yang Zhi. They originally lived in Pantang, Jishui County, Ji 'an District, Jiangxi Province. During Chenghua period of Ming Dynasty, they traveled to Yunnan and moved to Shiping County. At the beginning, Yang Zhigong was appointed as Zheng Xue of Shiping House. He liked Shiping's mountains and rivers, so he set up Shiping. During the fourth ancestor's reign, the Yang family moved from Shiping City to Wujiaba Yangjiazhai.

Like many Han surnames in Shiping, the Yang family thrived from generation to generation, and the situation forced the Yang family to start making a living in different places. Yang's first ancestor is the eleventh ancestor. He has three brothers: the eldest brother, who moved from Yangjiazhai to Fengdong Village in Yuanjiang County; The second brother, Yang Fafu, moved to Pogeng Village, Yuanjiang County; The third brother, Yang Fashen, moved to Wadi Village, Yuanjiang County.

As for why Yang Fa came to Wadi, the answer is the same as that of Shiping who drove the caravan westward. Shen Gong came to Wagga village and started his career while the iron was hot. Up to now, Po, the Wagner blacksmith, is named after Fa when he is working while the iron is hot.

Settled down, took root and sprouted, and Fa Shengong became the ancestor of Wayang. The difference is that Fa Shen Gong later returned to Shiping and died there. Probably he always thought it was better to leave the leaves behind. His spouse, the sister of the program, lived in depression until her death.

After all, Yang became a Han surname in Wadi Village, and later history is still evolving. Later generations of the Yang family started from the depression and radiated to the surrounding areas. Yuanjiang County, Simao, Pu 'er, Banna, Chashan and Yongchang (Baoshan) have all become the living habitats of Yang.

The Xu family was originally five acres smaller than Shiping, and should have settled in the depression with the Yang family at the same time. Since they are fellow villagers, they naturally reported to the group to keep warm and have the same language, so they got married, which brought the concept of marriage for generations that Shiping people often said to the depression and continued Shiping's fireworks. Up to now, many girls in the doll village have married to Shiping, which is really a mess.

In other words, it is normal for Shiping people to bear hardships and stand hard work, and the scholarly family is a continuation. The Yang family has deep pockets and is always brilliant.

19 10, a baby boy was born in Waer's family, and his father named him Yang Jialin (191994). Yang Jialin has been extremely clever since he was a child, so it is not difficult for him to study. He graduated from Fudan University in Shanghai in 1930s. 1949 Before that, he served as executive member of the Party Department of Yunnan Province in China, director of Yunnan Provincial Bureau of Land and Resources, founded People's Daily, and concurrently served as chairman and legislator of the Kuomintang. His genealogy of Yangjia in Yuanjiang "has important historical value in studying the history of mixed ethnic groups".

Besides his main occupation, Mr. Wang is also keen on practical things: first, he co-founded a salt mine on the east bank of Yuanjiang River with General Zhang Chong, and then he and Mr. Xu started a chemical plant. Mr. Wang was in Kunming, responsible for providing supplies for the elderly in Yuanjiang Friendship Hall, and later went to Taiwan Province Province with the Kuomintang government. From then on, "homesickness" is a small boat ticket. I am here and my home is there. " (Yu Guangzhong)

Tomb-Sweeping Day 1994, Mr. Yang Jialin went back to his hometown to seek his roots and worship his ancestors, and told his family about his parting. He generously donated 80,000 yuan as a primary and secondary school scholarship in Waan, named "Gui Xiang Scholarship" to reward teachers and outstanding students.

Mr Yang Jialin leads a civilian life. He is approachable, modest and polite, dressed simply, and always likes reading books and newspapers. Whenever he encounters aphorisms, he will be included in the family file as a reference for managing the family. His wife, Ms. Zhu Yusheng, and her husband are "like-minded" and "singing together", and the education of their six children is also subtle. The children are all successful in their studies and become national construction talents. His son, Yang Guoliang, lives in the distant United States and has a doctorate.

In fact, Mr. Yang Jialin's writings on "large mixed residence, small concentration and scattered concentration" are all inspired by the Han surname of Wawa Shiping and the mixed residence of ethnic minorities.

What are the Han surnames of Shiping (Shiping Xiaoshui), Yang (Yangjiazhai), Zhang (Zhangbenzhai) and Xu (Xiaowu)? Other Han surnames also come from Bao Xiulan Ziying, Pan Ying, Wuying, Dayangying, Lijiazhai, Fang Ya and other places. They thrive in the valley of Yuanjiang, share a blue sky with the local Yi and Dai people in the valley, share a home, communicate national feelings, and turn the valley into a beautiful cave infinitely close to the mainland. The vision of Wawa aborigines began to decouple from backwardness through mountains, life concepts and three views.

It can be concluded that the depression has become another stone screen.

Xu Man old man Jingying said that the depression in the old society was basically the world of Shiping people, and the living habits of Yi and Dai people gradually became subtle and gradually merged with Shiping people. When encountering important solar terms, for example, during the Chinese New Year, Mr. Shi Ping, dressed in a gown and very gentlemanly, set up a stall in a tea shop, set up a book case, took a folding fan, and told a story about the romance of the Three Kingdoms and the legend of Yue, which was quite impressive. The audience seemed to understand and then understood.

Those who walked on stilts and danced with lions all showed their magical powers on the head of Wadi Gaopo, and Chinese culture began to take root in extreme places.

Shiping people also built a shrine in Wawapotou, and the Confucian Temple (now Wawa Primary School), the Wu Temple (now the Temple) and the Great Temple (now the Temple is gone) stood out, resulting in a group of good men and women who believe in Buddhism and fast, and publicized the correct three views of being kind to others, being loyal and filial, being kind to others and taking the good road.

Dong Yun Temple, located in Xiazhai, is a typical Buddhist temple. The temple is quiet and peaceful. It is said that as long as you are sincere, you can ask for something at any time, so pilgrims from all directions are in an endless stream and incense is flourishing.

How can I put it? Shi Ping is like a missionary. It is too heavy to carry.

Bandits are a hurdle in the history of China. After the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, the border area of Yunnan has never been a peaceful place. In addition to the warlord melee during the Republic of China, a series of local bandits are also looting their homes, and it has become normal for people to suffer. Shiping bandits are not oil lamps. As long as you are not afraid of death, do not take the right path, have no conscience, and have a certain appeal, you can basically turn bandits into dens.

Since they are bandits, they can't be measured by common sense, and there will be no rules and regulations. What is good for people, what is kind and what is good will all go to hell.

Bandits are inevitable in depressed areas. In the 1920s, the ghosts of bandits have been wandering in the mountains, led by Zhou Yiya (Jianshui) and Li Zihong (Milegou, Shiping County). The two bandits are bitter, fierce and inhuman, which is their excellent annotation.

The 18th year of the Republic of China (AD 1929) is destined to be an important history of Wawa Village. On April 1 1, two gang leaders, Zhou Yiya and Li Zihong, led hundreds of bandits to attack Wadi village. The route starts from Wulanggou, Shiping, then crosses the river, enters Nancha Village in the Mid-levels (Nancha Village is under the jurisdiction of depression), and then reaches the depression village.

When the villagers in Nancha Village saw bandits coming from a distance, they immediately sent someone to report the situation of bandits to the head of Wae.

The gangsters swaggered and marched smoothly. They went to a place three or four kilometers away from Wadi to repair it, ready to capture Wacun in one fell swoop.

When bandits went up the mountain, Wadi Village immediately organized manpower to repair the stockade walls, reinforce the stockade fortifications and properly protect the grain. The general manager Yang and the village elders are responsible for the blocking prevention.

The atmosphere immediately became tense. At about 6 o'clock in the evening, the tour fee was dark and swarmed to the periphery of the village. Gunshots were fired and shouts were intertwined. Bandits are extremely vicious, armed with five guns, water guns and ten guns, which can be described as advanced weapons. On the other hand, the anti-blocking side is a soil gun, which cannot be effective and deadly, and its combat effectiveness is dwarfed. However, the people in the depression are indispensable, and they are determined to resist the bandits' attack.

Although the bandits were desperate, they were frightened by the cruelty of the villagers in the depression and could not move for a while. The bandits are also determined to attack the village in an attempt to destroy the morale of the villagers. They attack the village at night, so that people in the village can't see themselves clearly and reduce casualties. During the day, they catch chickens and cows everywhere, leaving the fields hanging to catch fish, as if deliberately teasing the people in the village.

After seven days and seven nights, the flames in the hearts of the people in the depression completely burned, and they vowed to fight the bandits to the end.

To tell the truth, bandits are also born of mothers, and their fighting capacity has been discounted before their conscience is extinguished. Most gangsters were bewitched by Zhou and Li: Brothers, Wawa people live a rich life, with wine, vegetables and bacon. If you do this well, you and I can moisten the rusty intestines with water. Go ahead and rob it. Whoever robs it will get it, and rob the depressed woman as his wife. On the other hand, whoever doesn't work hard, Lao Tzu's gun may not hit the hollow, but your skull!

Some shady bandits are young, but they can't get off the stage when they get on the thief's boat. They can only be at the mercy of bandits and bow down to attack depressions.

However, the bandits brought not food and ham, but lead bullets from the people in the depression! Men and able-bodied men in each village guard each stronghold, men rest during the day, women and children watch the wind and pile weighed stones on the wall. These backward weapons are enough for gangsters to drink a pot. Take advantage of favorable terrain, endure and defeat robbers.

At midnight on the seventh day, the bandits struggled for the last time. They grabbed ladders from people's homes and used them as tools to attack the city walls, trying to climb over the walls into the village and plunder property. The villagers who held the stronghold immediately fought back, and the lead bullets and stones of the soil guns rained down on the bandits.

Stealing chickens and not eating rice, bandits were injured countless times, and their arrogance gradually faded. They hid in a safe place, grinning, revealing lead bullets embedded in their thighs, and limped down the mountain with a scar they had made.

Wadi and Da Fei fought for their lives and became famous in World War I, which became a much-told story. From then on, the bully never dared to covet Wadi again.

After seven days and seven nights of fighting and repelling bandits, the people of Wadi had a preliminary experience in resisting the enemy. The mass base is good, and the red history of depression begins.

In the Yuanjiang River in the 1940s, revolutionary kindling spread all over the north and south of the river, and depressions were also one of the important positions in the revolutionary struggle.

Enthusiastic old man Xu Jingying said that he would take me to see Yang's compound, which is Yang Jialin's former residence.

It's a pity that the gate is locked, and it's boring without the key of the village Committee. Can't delve into, can only look at the outside of the compound.

Yang's four-in-one courtyard, grand view! Three-story building, brick and wood structure, Happy Horse Corner Building style, typical architectural style of the Republic of China, heavy and rigorous walls and brick columns, extremely meticulous and neat construction technology, and mascots such as Kirin and Phoenix at doorpiers, windowsills, door carvings and stair railings. It should be one or two pieces of sawdust and one or two pieces of silver!

Things are different. As a landmark building, Yangjia Courtyard is somewhat aloof and extraordinary in introversion. People in the past didn't leave their grievances in the air, but people today can still find time. Those hay trees on the eaves are still telling the glory of the Yang family in the past.

1In July, 949, the Central Yunnan Working Committee established the Central Yunnan Provincial Committee to receive the Yuanjiang government of the Kuomintang, and established the Central Yuanjiang County Committee to lead the party building and political work in the county. At the same time, the Yangjia Courtyard is also the place where the tenth detachment of the Yunnan-Guizhou-Guangxi Border Region column was established for training.

In April of 20001year, Yangjia Courtyard was listed as the first batch of municipal cultural relics protection units by Yuxi Municipal Government.

Bypassing the stone lane, it is Yang's ancestral hall, which is called "the Hall of Innocence". We can recall the character advocated by Yang Zushi in Shiping: innocence, diligence and introversion. Heaven rewards diligence, and innocence can make you sit steady and go far.

However, the Innocent Temple is somewhat different. Now it only undertakes the function of catering. The house in the front yard is used as a kitchen, and dozens of guests can sit in the backyard. ?

At this time, several chefs are busy withdrawing the "fragrant gang". Innocent temples have to be baptized again and again by guests on the first day. The boiling water in the cauldron is still boiling, and there is a basket of fish residue thorns on the greasy table of the Eight Immortals, and the blue bricks are greasy with a layer of oil.

The ancestral temple is like a woman with shriveled breasts, but it is still contributing to her innocence!

What if, what if you accidentally use fire? The shelf structure of the ancestral hall is a century-old wood, which has dried up! It is difficult for ancestors to start a business, and only the protection of the younger generation is the continuation of the pulse.

Shiping people in depression have not lost their family complex. They have reached a common covenant with Shiping's fellow villagers. In five or ten years, they will go to Shiping to worship their ancestors in Tomb-Sweeping Day, say goodbye to their fellow villagers, and be separated by mountains and rivers.

It's only 60 kilometers from Shiping City to Wadi. In the past, the mountains were high and steep, so it was quite difficult to exchange visits between the two places. Up to now, the natural barrier is a thoroughfare, Shiping people transport fruits and vegetables, and vehicles shuttle back and forth. Doing business is as easy as dropping in. It's not difficult to take a message and say something.

The valley is really close, because there is a wind and rain bridge between the valley people and Shiping.
