Many natives in the town look down upon outsiders, but most of the good positions are taken by outsiders, and most of the money is made away by outsiders. It is impossible for the natives not to feel a little uneasy in their hearts. When they face outsiders again, their eyes are brighter, and they only keep their disdain deep in their bones, and keep a distance from you in everything they say or do.

With a critical eye, welcome the light. The historical changes, cultural character, customs and daily life of the Yi people are told in the form of letters. Understand the social changes in contemporary China, the changes of the Yi people, the customs and sentiments of Daliang Mountain, and think about the path to cultural modernization. The narrative is calm and measured, and the emotions are sincere and passionate. It can be called an encyclopedia about Liangshan from tradition to modernity. Zhaojue County, in the hinterland of Daliang Mountain, is the largest county inhabited by the Yi people in the country. Due to its special geographical environment, cultural background and social form, it has become a mysterious existence and a fortress for poverty alleviation. In early 2018, after General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected Liangshan and conducted an on-site inspection of Zhaojue, it became a hot spot for poverty alleviation. This book closely follows the proposition of this era, but goes beyond the proposition itself. With a broad historical perspective, it proceeds layer by layer and analyzes it in depth from the perspectives of anthropology, ethnology and internal concepts. Material and spiritual, us and them, today and tomorrow, reflect each other and merge into a surging river. Understanding, solemnity and broad-mindedness combine to form the temperament of this book, making it a model text that combines reality, literature and thought.

My hometown is in the Daba Mountain area surrounded by peaks in northeastern Sichuan. The mountain we settled on is called Laojun Mountain. The village hangs on the mountainside, more than a thousand meters above sea level. There is a mighty river at the foot of the mountain, and across the river is Yanghou Mountain. Xu Zhaohui's home is in the belly of Yanghou Mountain, where there is a village primary school called Shichuan Primary School. Her father became a teacher after being demobilized from the army, but he did not teach in Shichuan. Instead, he was sent to Anzisi Primary School in our village as the principal. Standing on the playground of Anzi Temple, you can see the bamboo forest in front of Principal Xu's house, and you can also see the smoke rising from his cooking stove. But if you want to go back, you have to walk a "U" shape from beginning to end, which takes more than half a day. There is a folk song circulating in the local area: "The two families are separated by a river. If you want to go over and kiss each other, don't be afraid of breaking your feet." Principal Xu's family is very poor. According to the villagers, they are so poor that they "lick their feet."

"The History of Silence" uses seven stories to describe "silence" and analyzes for us the spiritual world buried behind the seven silent people. In "Moonlight Border", Lin Ya was suppressed by the tired and cramped life, and eventually became the protagonist in a movie she had watched, "climbing up the windowsill and jumping off"; in "Real Life", Hu Jian, who had high hopes since childhood, grew up because he was not familiar with the world. Being ostracized by everyone, "I" regarded him as an idol because he seemed to "better able to see the essence of reality". Unexpectedly, in the end Hu Jian "finally understood", and the flag of "I" collapsed, like "Anna abandoned her remaining nobility"; in "River Wind", Zhang Tiejiang lost his love due to his own restraint, and in the end all that was left was "a black dog skin nailed to the wall in front of him"; in "The Name of a Bird", Li Xiangzhi hides his past and avoids the truth and his inner world by pursuing "no life" world; in "History of Silence", "I" found the priest Lin Anping due to a task conveyed by my superiors, and in my interactions with this woman who had been accompanied by visions since childhood and became the chosen one, "I" gradually discovered the secrets between her and myself (and everyone)...

Police station chief Ran Qingguang moved his family to Chengdu after repeated defeats in his official career. Poverty, no friends, no job, quarrels over saving money, life is dull, depressed and depressing. The pampered wife is determined to work in a housekeeping company. Before she left, she spoke on the phone loudly on the bus: Ah, it's me, yes, yes, I'm going to Paris tomorrow, and the plane tickets have been bought. Everyone in the car looked at her with envy, and then she got out of the car with tears streaming down her face.

My aunt is dead. Her uncle asked her to stay at home for seven days, setting up wine and banquets, and building a water and land dojo. After spending all 45,000 yuan, she was put into a coffin and buried in the cemetery across the river. In Huilong Town, which is gradually declining, it costs 45,000 to bury a person, which is not a small amount. Therefore, when my uncle talked about this matter to me, he sounded more or less complacent. "How long has it been since my aunt died?" My uncle said, "I just had Sanqi fever yesterday, so it has been twenty-one days." I am glad that I did not come to Huilong Town twenty-one days ago. But I know that my aunt has been sick. When I was a child, she was notoriously sick and had been taking Chinese medicine for many years.

As soon as Yu Fangbei passed out, his daughter stood beside his bed. The daughter said, Dad, I am Xiaofeng, you must avenge me. Yu Fangbei woke up as soon as he kicked his legs. The curtains were drawn tightly and the room was dark, but the hot breath of his daughter hit his nostrils. Yu Fangbei wanted to reach out and grab her, but stopped when he knew it was impossible. In fact, he didn't see his daughter's appearance clearly, and her daughter was black in front of him, but the voice was definitely his daughter's; her daughter's voice was a little astringent. Yu Fangbei's heartbeat was very slow because he deliberately controlled his breathing. He turned on the lamp with a tremble and saw two pairs of shoes placed where his daughter had been standing just now. Shoes for him and his wife. His wife Li Zhen was paralyzed due to cerebral hemorrhage. She was huddled against the wall with a painful expression. Yu Fangbei tucked the quilt under his wife's shoulders, turned off the lights and walked to the balcony.

Taking the relationship between a pair of lovers as the starting point, it ruthlessly tears apart the romantic veil of the "love" conspiracy. Liu Hanmin and Zhang Qun seemed to have an unstoppable "love", but they were kidnapped by the seemingly pure and good "love" and entered another examination room of life. Zhang Qun asked Liu Hanmin's son to take the college entrance examination for his daughter. Once the conditions came up, he suffered physical and mental torture around this extra love debt. In the end, the relationship between lovers also evolved into a bad book of gains and losses between lovers.

Xu Ruixing wanted to drop his chopsticks and leave, but he didn't do that. It would be too rude. Although they are competitors in different camps, they paid for you. In terms of status, you are just a graduating class teacher of Xinzhou No. 2 Middle School, while Huang Chuan is the academic director of Xinzhou No. 5 Middle School. The most important thing is that they did not force you even after talking for a long time.

My Mimi is dead. It was a Sunday and my son didn't go to school. My wife Ahua and I rarely slept in. We didn't get up after 8 o'clock. Lao Bai had just come back from outside and had not taken in food or water. He raised his head and moved his four short legs from room to room, picking at bed boards and wardrobe doors, looking for Mimi. As long as Mimi was not in his sight, he would always look for her. I asked Ahua: "Where is Mimi?" Ahua said that she let it go out at night. What time was it specifically? She didn't look at her watch. My mind darkened for a moment, like a piece of paper being covered with water. In the wet dark lines, the scene of Mimi being hit by a car three years ago emerged. Ah Hua was also so dizzy that time that he couldn't remember what time he was let out, or even whether he was at home or outside. As a result, something big happened. I said, get up quickly and go look for it. Ah Hua got up first, grabbed a handful of cat food, and went to the rooftop platform.

I was born in the mountains. Laojun Mountain. It is located in the north of Xuanhan County in northeastern Sichuan and belongs to the remnants of Daba Mountain. Further north is Wanyuan, bordering Ankang in southern Shaanxi, Chongqing to the east and south, and Hunan and Hubei to the east of Chongqing. The famous "Huguang Reclamation" in Xuanhan was the only way to pass through Xuanhan. It was clear that with a few more days of hard work, the people who moved their families would be able to reach the fertile western Sichuan, or at least as far as Kaijiang, a neighboring county known as "Little Chengdu". However, their blistered feet, cramped legs, and uncertainty about the future made them dare not run blindly and persistently on the road; after all, as farmers who deal with the land, they must stop, and only by stopping can they own an industry and have a home. So we took the ethnic group as a unit and stopped in the mountains, "taking possession as our business and pointing our fingers as the boundary."

If I hadn't seen the river, I wouldn't have jumped into the river. That day I was walking on Qingnian Road. When I reached the first traffic light intersection, I should have turned left to go to Dongmen Long-distance Bus Station, but I didn't turn. I didn't even stop at the traffic light intersection, I just walked forward. It was raining and snowing that day, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, there were not many pedestrians, and my footsteps were wet and monotonous. Why is Qingnian Road so long? I've walked it countless times before, and every time I turn when I reach the first traffic light intersection, I don't know where it ends. Today I feel like I am being led by a rope. If I don't reach the end, the rope will wrap around my neck and won't let go. Finally, I saw another street sign. I planned to walk under the sign and then back up. About ten meters away from the road sign, I saw the river.

Before dawn, Sun Yongan went out carrying the bucket. The light blue morning mist hid the town. The town is called Puguang. It was a famous temple many years ago. It was called Puguang Temple at that time. The sound of wooden fish and chanting continued for hundreds of years. At the beginning of the last century, an unknown fire burned the temple to ashes. Since then, the monks have left and the incense has been cut off. When the fluffy spring grass emerges from the black ashes, the land returns to secular life again and becomes a distribution center for supplies in the middle reaches of the Qingxi River. Because it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, fog often forms over the town. Sometimes, the fog lingers in the early evening and does not dissipate until the afternoon of the next day. The street lights were dim and could not illuminate the houses or the soles of their feet. Sun Yongan walked through several short alleys based on his feelings, walked past the playground, went down a section of dirt slope lined with acacias, and then crossed a road to reach the old street. The old street is a stone street, and his footsteps in cloth shoes are very solid and lonely.

On the eve of the college entrance examination, each school will use resources and means to get top students from other schools to their own school. Xu Ruixing is the head teacher, and Huang Chuan from another school hopes to use financial bribery to get him to reveal information about the "good students" in his school. Xu Ruixing was unwilling to do this, but for various reasons, he still became a "spy".

Yang Shuncheng, who grew up in a prison compound, was aloof in the prison, abusing prisoners and unscrupulously. He likes his classmate Gao Lingling, loves poetry, plays the guitar well and can write songs. After graduation, he went to Tibet. He came back wearing a fur coat to see Gao Lingling, but was ignored by Gao Lingling, so he broke the piano and said goodbye. He went to Foshan, Guangdong, raped his landlord's daughter, hijacked a car, killed her and cut her body into pieces, becoming a complete evil person. It was music that gave him new life. He joined the Match Band, but ended up being shot.

On the day I came back from the city, azalea made a mountain look bright, and the light blocking in May was indescribably good. But my sister-in-law passed away on this day. The first place I went to was my second brother's house. This year it was my father's turn to live with my second brother. My father was alone in the house, sweeping the floor. He was already very old. I stood at the door and called him. He clenched his left hand into a fist, put it against his waist, and then slowly opened his waist like a folding rule, and then he saw me. He said where is your son? Are you back? I said Dad, I'm back.
