Features: The historical background described in "The Chief of the Yi People" is less than a century old, yet it has undergone tremendous changes. At that time, Liangshan was still very closed off, an area that inspired fear in outsiders. Anyone who wanted to venture deep into the heart of Liangshan had to find a powerful protector to accompany them. Clearly, Gu Peter's decision to enter this mysterious land required great courage. The fact that he was able to travel smoothly through this ancient land and document his experiences in the form of a travelogue is even more remarkable. With a unique perspective, the author presents the magnificent Kangba region and the mysterious Daliang Mountains to us, leaving behind this invaluable historical record.
