Chaoma Abo - a propagandist in the Hani village, with a very low status. Early that morning, I came back from the city. When I walked to the village entrance, I heard Chaoma Apo's high-pitched "Chaoma" cry again: "Listen well, don't say you didn't hear it..." In the Hani village, this is an opening statement with high etiquette. It is Chaoma Abo's greetings and respect for all the villagers, and it is also his professional ethics. It is equivalent to what the spokesperson often says during meetings in Han areas - Dear friends, hello everyone! I often live in the city, and this is an unforgettable sentence in the context of communicating with people in Chinese every day. Back in the village, these words soothed my soul like the words "Mo Pi" (Old Beima) chanted when he called out his soul.
