     I did not meet a single Chinese between Chê-to and Li-chiang in Yunnan¹- a journey that occupied about a month- and the Chinese language was entirely unknown.

     In speaking of the important center of Li-chiang, Wang said the Han-Chinese of Yun-nan as well as of other parts of China were quite ignorant in some of their basic assumptions about this region. Some people, he said, think that Li-chiang is a wilderness of the wild barbarians or place it in the same category as Tibet.

     In 1922 Rock took up his residence in Li-chiang, the heart of the Na-khi country. His interest in these aboriginal people and their unique culture led him to make, a decade later, his life work the study of the Na-khi tribe of northwest Yün-nan Province. Using Li-chiang as a base, Rock explored and collected plants on the nearby Snow Range to the 17,000 foot level, in the Kingdom of Mu-li, and along the Burma-China border. By 1923 he was far into Yün-nan Province in southwest China, and the National Geographic Society took over the sponsorship of his explorations for more than a year.
