In the folk custom of Xinhuang, the Yelang cultural remains are still preserved. Legend has it that Yelang Wang was born in bamboo, so bamboo became a national worship in Yelang area, and a colorful Yelang bamboo culture was derived. There are many kinds of bamboos in Xinhuang, including Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens, Mianzhu, Zhu Gui, Black Bamboo, White Bamboo and Arhat Bamboo. Xinhuang bamboo culture is very rich. There are many bamboo buildings made of bamboo products, such as bamboo tubes, baskets, chairs, beds, mats, bowls, chopsticks, lunch boxes, mats and fishing gear. More interestingly, there are other customs in folk customs, such as "accompanying bamboo", "offering bamboo", "burying bamboo" and "dividing bamboo".
When explaining Yelang's questioning of sacrifice in Historical Records and Hanshu, they all said that "all his people are left-handed, living together in the city and can plow the fields." These are the three most prominent characteristics of ancient Yelang tribe. These characteristics are still inherited in Xinhuang's current folk customs, which shows that Xinhuang and Guyelang tribe are related in origin. "Vertebral knot" means that the hair is twisted into a vertebra and opened on the head. In ancient times, men pricked vertebrae, and now they are still in Baoqing. Female cervical spondylolisthesis is still very common in rural areas today, especially unmarried girls. There are more than ten kinds of single-top, double-top, panlong, phoenix tail and screws. "Urban cohabitation" means that everyone is used to living together. Generally, people with the same surname live in a stockade. If two or three surnames live together in a stockade, they live together. Nowadays, there are still many places in Xinhuang rural area called so-and-so stockaded villages, such as "Shenjiazhai" and "Longjiazhai". Diaojiao Building and Paoma Building, which are popular in Xinhuang rural areas, inherit the architectural features of style and are the architectural embodiment of Chaozhou cultural heritage. "Being able to farm" means being able to grow rice. Judging from the paleolithic unearthed in Xinhuang, there were human activities as early as 5000-65438+ ten thousand years ago. Judging from the rice grains and rice ash found in the Neolithic site of Xinhuang, the ancestors of Xinhuang learned to grow rice at least 5000 years ago. The bamboo rice baskets unearthed in Jingzhou County 5,000 years ago are exactly the same as those in Dong areas such as Xinhuang today, which proves that Dong areas have entered the farming era before the arrival of Chu army.
Minuo culture is the best embodiment of Xinhuang's inheritance of ancient Yelang mysterious culture and folk customs. Because the ancestors of Xinhuang have a long history of "being able to plow the fields", the rice cultivation culture has a long history and is rich and colorful. Apart from making straw gods, sheds, huts, straw hats, sandals, grass beds, straw balls, straw ropes and straw slips, today's Xinhuang countryside also has production and living customs with strong rice culture, such as "opening seedling doors", "sweeping spring", "tasting new festivals", "pressing dowry" and "rolling mud". Among them, the most influential is the Nuo opera "Tiger Tiger Leg" in Lu Si Village, Gongxi Township, which is mainly used to worship the "rice god" (named after performing two drums and one gong in the dance). Performers wear straw clothes and masks, and most of the performances are in the production and life of private law. Over the years, domestic folk experts and foreign folk culture experts from Japan and South Korea have visited Lu Si Village for more than ten times. 1September, 1997, when Japanese folklore expert Professor Akihara and Japanese Central University professor Dr. Huang Qiang visited Lu Si Village, they said excitedly, "I have searched all over Southeast Asia and visited many countries in the world, but I have never seen such an ancient and well-preserved rice cultural heritage." The exorcism culture of Yelang circulating in Xinhuang mainly includes "exorcism skills" and "Nuo opera". In addition to climbing the knife mountain, crossing the knife bridge, stepping on the fire, stepping on the red plow and holding the red iron, "Nuo skills" also have amazing skills such as eating porcelain bowls, chewing glass, swallowing nails, swallowing pointed bamboo, scalding your face with oil, returning dead chickens to the sun, and piercing the neck with steel needles. Xinhuang is a minority county town dominated by Dong people. The buildings that embody Dong people's characteristics mainly include Drum Tower, Yufeng Bridge, Gan Lan-style houses (Paoma Building, Tunkou Building, Diaojiao Building, Siheyuan), Huajie Road, Stone Pavilion, Suspension Bridge, Floating Bridge, Stone Arch Bridge, Wooden Bridge, etc. The wind and rain bridges in Xinhuang are widely distributed, including the "North Dong Wind and Rain Bridge" in Zhongzhai Town, the wind and rain bridge in Xinglong Dingziao Dong Folk Culture Village and the "Longtan Villa" in Fangjiatun. The wind and rain building in Yelang Square is the evolution form of wind and rain bridge. In the county, Ganlan dwellings are mainly concentrated in Yelangzhai.
Xinhuang Stone Pavilion is located in xinzhai village, Zhongzhai Town. It is completely made of stone and has a unique style. Xinhuang stone arch bridge, abutment, arch frame and deck are all made of stone. There are more than ten suspension bridges on the first line of Xinhuang-Liangsan Highway. At the Yelang academic seminar held in Guiyang from 65438 to 0999, the ethnic composition of Yelang ancient country and the location of its central area became the focus of fierce debate. According to the Fu Wang Han Yin unearthed at that time, Yunnan experts proposed that Yelang Capital should be benefited in Yunnan. Hunan scholars believe that the capital of Yelang culture should be in Chu, because the core of Yelang culture is Chu culture. Guangxi scholars believe that the activity center of Yelang ancient country is Lingyun in Guangxi. In addition to the inter-provincial "competition", Xingren, Hezhang, Cengong and other counties and cities belonging to Guizhou also participated.
There are many places competing for and building Yelang brand, mainly including Xinhuang in Hunan Province, Guizhou Provincial Government and Liupanshui (especially Liuzhi), Zunyi, Hezhang, Tongzi, Pu 'an, Xuanwei, Zhanyi, Lingyun, Guangxi, Wansheng and Chongqing. Among them, several counties (cities, districts) in Guizhou tried to rename Yelang County, but failed. In 2003, Hunan Xinhuang applied to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to restore the name of Yelang Dong Autonomous County, which caused an uproar. Several counties (cities) in Guizhou are vying for it, and they also strongly urge the provincial government to report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and change its name to Yelang, so as to keep the brand Yelang in Guizhou. The Guizhou provincial government held a special meeting to coordinate this and decided to report Liuzhi, renamed Hezhang County and Yelang County, but refused to accept it and reported it directly to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. For this reason, the dispute between Hunan Xinhuang and Guizhou Yelang has reached a white-hot level through the hype of thousands of media all over the country, just like a "battle" without smoke.
20 10 10, Xinhuang announced a plan to build an ancient Yelang country with 5 billion yuan. Shortly thereafter, the Propaganda Department of Guizhou Provincial Party Committee cooperated with Guizhou Social Science Association and organized experts to hold a seminar to respond, reiterating once again that Yelang is an inevitable brand in Guizhou.
