In the Lisu village, there is a legend about Qibue.
Legend has it that a long time ago, a Lisu family had seven brothers. Grandpa told them to go out to learn their skills. After three years, all seven brothers came back.
The old university learns to cultivate land in mountains, the second child learns to build houses and houses, the third learns to weave jigsaws, the fourth learns to shoot crossbow hunting, the fifth learns to fish for shrimp, and the sixth learns to see a doctor and take medicine. Dad was so happy to give each of them a tube of honey. When it was Lao Qi Adi's turn, he picked up the four-stringed chibue and played it. The sound of the qin was like a ding dong of a mountain spring and flowing water, and like a pearl falling on a jade plate, it was beautiful and beautiful.
He danced around the fire again, first jumping circle dance, then kick dance, three-step dance, foot-step two-step dance, shaking body dance, and imitating the movements of various birds, animals and domestic animals, jumping out of various A beautiful dance.
His performance was well received by the villagers, men, women and children of all ages were elated and smiling. But Abba was very angry, and scolded him for not learning how to make a living, but only learned the trick of idleness, and kicked him out of the house.
Adi came to the wilderness hillside, built a shack with bamboo poles and thatch, and sat at the door of the shack and played melodious music. The sound of the qin spread to the Dragon Palace in the depths of the Nujiang River. The Dragon King asked Adi to play the qin and dance in the Dragon Palace, and teach the dragon son Longsun the skills. In order to thank him, the Dragon King married the beautiful dragon girl to him, and helped him build a house on the hillside and open fertile fields.
The six brothers met with Abba, knowing that what Adi had learned was also a skill, turned anger into joy, and reconciled as before. Adi taught the skills to the villagers. Since then, there have been Qibuers everywhere on both sides of the Nu River, with songs and dances, and with joy.
