The difference between Tibetans and Hui people.

Langmusi is a place name. It is a small town under the jurisdiction of Luqu, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province and ruoergai county, Sichuan Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture. It is also an important town on the "tea-horse mutual market" in the past, and it is an important town at the junction of Gansu and Sichuan provinces.

Entering the town, the residential buildings on both sides combine the characteristics of Hui and Tibetan, quiet and simple.

"There is a river in the town called Bailong River, which is less than two meters wide, which is equivalent to a stream, but there is also a resounding name called Bailong River. You cannot underestimate this river. It is the boundary river between Gansu Province and Sichuan Province, and also the dividing line between Hui and Tibetan. On both sides of the river, there are Tibetan Lamaism and Hui Mosque. The two ethnic groups have different beliefs, but they live in harmony in a small town. " The tour guide said.

Because I am in a hurry, I can only drive around the town and see Hui and Tibetan compatriots wearing different ethnic costumes walking leisurely on the street. The buildings on both sides of the street are also of different styles.

"See the stream? This is Bailong River. " The tour guide said.

Following the direction of the guide, we saw a narrow stream, which is far from the concept of river, but it is indeed a river and one of the mainstream sources of Jialing River. Who dares to say that the trickle of Juanjuan cannot be merged into rivers, lakes and seas? Tuotuo River, the source of the Yangtze River, consists of some intermittent streams. The source of the Yellow River is also composed of six springs. Didn't they also give birth to two mother rivers, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, the cradle of Chinese civilization? The two mother rivers have different routes because of different choices. The Yangtze River flows in the south of China, where rivers and lakes crisscross, so it is rich in water resources, products and people's lives. The Yellow River chose to flow northward and cross the Loess Plateau. The length of the river changed from clear to turbid, and the sediment content was high. There are not many rivers and lakes injected along the way. Because of too much sediment, the river is blocked, and it becomes a suspended river, even cut off, and sometimes it is chaotic, which harms the people.

On the way, Bailong River merged with other rivers and lakes to form Jialing River, which finally merged into the Yangtze River in Chongqing. Hui and Tibetans living on both sides of Bailong River stick to their beliefs in different ways and live in harmony.

Cross the Bailong River and head for langmusi. This is a temple of Tibetan Buddhism. According to legend, the Queen Mother of the West is the chief ancestor of the Chinese nation. Nvwa, the goddess of Wushan, and Yanwu, the grandmother of Ba people, are all branches of the Queen Mother's Department of the West. The Queen Mother of the West takes the tigress as the totem, also known as "Hei Hu Fairy", and Langmuzang means "Tiger Fairy". After the rise of Tibetan Buddhism, the temple was named "Fairy Temple in the Tiger Cave"-langmusi. Therefore, since ancient times, langmusi has become a sacred place for Sichuan, Gansu and Qinghai people to worship the goddess Hei Hu.
