TO TA-CHIEN-LU 71
chien-lu and they vary much among themselves.
They appear to be a mixture of Tibetan, Turk,
Mongol and Chinese with the aboriginal race.
The chief traffic was in tea, done up in long
narrow bundles, each weighing about eighteen
catties. A man carries about eight, one above
the other, lengthwise, on his back.
A lawless band of Tibetan brigands occupied
the country south of Litang and west of the
Ya-lung River. These brigands General Ch'en
could easily disperse, but if he did he would run
out of ammunition and he would then be attacked
by his enemy the general at Chengtu. The
brigands therefore defy him.
The hills round Ta-chien-lu are said to abound
in bears, roe, wapiti, serow, blue sheep, pheasants,
leopard, wolves, and fox. They are bare of trees
and there is none of the thick undergrowth Pereira
had met with on his shooting expedition at Teng-
ch'ih-kou. But he could not now spare the time
necessary to find the game.
On January 7 he left Ta-chien-lu and struck
up northward as it was impossible to enter Tibet
directly. He had to dismiss his boy, as he dis-
covered that he was using visiting-cards describing
himself as an official travelling on official business,
and evidently meant to pose as one having
authority. By this means he might pretend he
was travelling to inspect opium, and get bribes
from officials and opium dens.
Some notes on the Chinese Pereira now recorded.
The Catholic Church, he says, seems to manage
natives better than others. Native priests are
ordained, but a watchful eye is kept on them.
