RETURN TO CHINA 197
Pereira called on General Lung Yün at Chao-
t'ung. He is warden over the Lolo borderland
and is himself a Lolo (Nosu) though thoroughly
Chinesified. He was very friendly, but he is not
an energetic man. When his mother died the
Governor sent an officer to represent him at the
funeral, and this officer wore the Governor's
uniform on the occasion.
Pereira's next excursion was north-west to the
Nosu (Lolo) country Ta-ching-pa, 484 miles, on
the Yangtze. Leaving Chao-t'ung on April 6 he
marched over the fertile plain and then down a
valley to Sha-yü Ho, a village of three hundred
families, at 104 miles. Next day the road lay
among hills and there was a steep climb to the
Leng-ka-li Shan, 7805 feet, from which there was a
fine view over hills to the west and south-west,
some of which rose to over 10,000 feet. There was
now more fir forest on the hills and only a little
cultivation and a few hovels. At 171 miles he
reached Hsin-tien-tzu, 7616 feet, with 125 families.
On April 8 he followed down the Nan-shui Ho
for 3 miles and then had a steep climb to Ching-
feng-k'ou, 9770 feet, at 7 miles. From there he
had the first view of the Nosu (Lolo) country.
It was a wild mountainous region with few trees.
There were great ranges running in a southerly
direction, some of which were from 12,000 to
15,000 feet high and partly under snow. From
the top there was a long descent, in parts very
steep. The path was very narrow and lay partly
through a gorge between gigantic rocky precipices
and partly along the hill-side. He was now in one
of the deepest gorges in the whole course of the
