Chapter 271 Yumen Yellow River Section

Wang Changsheng didn't have time to deal with this drowned ghost for the time being, he had to do it seriously first, but he promised the transcendence and reincarnation of others, so he would definitely have to study it in the future, and people like them had to smash a hole if they spit.

Wang Changsheng is not free for the time being, because he also thinks that if this strange appearance of Longtang is not good, something may happen, because if the underground river connected to the spring is really leading to the Yellow River section of Yumen, then there is a chance that this thing will be true, and it will not run away.

Coming out of the film and television city, Wang Changsheng took a taxi and went to a place, and he planned to check the local history here.

The reason why he did this last time is very simple, the two big rivers in this land, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, are closely related to the Kunlun Mountains, and are directly connected to the dragon veins on this land.

It is recorded in the Kunlun Guanjing Pavilion that whenever there is a vision in the sky on the Yellow River, it must mean that something big will happen.

Because there are so many legends on this river, too many.

Among them, the most famous should probably be regarded as two, it is said that there is an old turtle under the Yellow River, no one knows how old it is, this old turtle starts from the source all the way to the mouth of the sea, stays under the water all the year round, and can not say when it will surface on the surface, and as long as the old turtle comes out, the two banks of the Yellow River where it is are either flooded or drought, stretching for thousands of miles, the people are not happy.

Another folk rumor is that there are several sections of the Yellow River that are connected to the underworld, and there are ghost gates under it, every Qingming and Zhongyuan Ghost Festival, the ghost gates on the Yellow River will be opened, and groups of lonely ghosts and wild ghosts will pour out.

Although a legend is a legend, if you don't see it with your own eyes, who knows if it's true or not?

Wang Changsheng knew that this legend was actually very true.

Wang Changsheng went to the library of Jinzhong, and then found a place to store local chronicles, the keeper of this room was an old man, wearing the kind of work clothes of seventy or eighty years, wearing a black-framed glasses, at first glance he looked like an old pedant, he heard that Wang Changsheng wanted to read the local chronicles and was very surprised, because young people of his age basically no one was interested in this thing, and even some people may not know what is called local chronicles.

Local chronicles are a regional Wenhua, a collection of humanities, in our country has a long cultural tradition, its history must be at least thousands of years, from the earliest days of the perfect social system has existed, and then every few years to edit a few times, this rule has been continued, even if it is a change of dynasty, the compilation of local chronicles will not fall, so if you want to know where the address is, just come and check this directly.

Wang Changsheng wants to check the things very simple, he wants to see if there is a record of the dragon pond here, since this pond has so much history, and it is connected to the Yellow River section at the entrance of Yumen, then I am afraid that it will definitely be recorded for thousands of years, the old men in the village are talking about one thing, and the official record may be another thing.

After checking for about an hour, Wang Changsheng also saw a lot of records about the dragon pond, the earliest record of this pond was in the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the reason for the formation was not recorded, only wrote "Suddenly one day, the sky cracked, the thunder rolled, the dark clouds in the sky were pressed very low after the lightning and thunder, after a few thunders, a deep pit appeared in that area, and then there was a boiling spring water coming out of it, and then a column of water rose to the sky, straight up into the air, and finally spread out in the clouds, like a water dragon......"

This is the origin of the dragon, which is particularly mysterious.

This can only be regarded as a legend, and cannot be used as any research, but Wang Changsheng also saw a useful record, that is, the Yellow River section of Yumen is particularly prone to accidents, and it is particularly logical, that is, it occurs once every 30 years and 60 years, either drought and flood, or war, or there is plague, plague, smallpox, or earthquake or something, in short, there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, and the interval is 30 or 60 years.

In Taoist theory, these thirty and sixty years are called the reincarnation years, with a small cycle of thirty years and a large cycle of sixty years.

There is a folk saying that this is what is said, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi.

In fact, the earliest words of this sentence are to describe the Yellow River, that is, the Yellow River flows westward in the past 30 years, and the 30 years go east, because the ancient road of the Yellow River is often changing.

What is recorded in the local chronicle is indeed quite corresponding to what the old man said, and the other party is a vague folk saying, and what is written in the local chronicle is officially certified.

After Wang Changsheng checked it, he was even more sure that something should happen in the Yellow River section of Yumen in the recent period.

Coming out of the house, Wang Changsheng said thank you to the old man at the door, he had just taken two steps, and the old scholar behind him suddenly lifted the frame of his glasses and asked, "Young man, I see that you were looking up the local chronicles of Longtang and Yumen just now?"

Wang Changsheng stopped, turned around and said, "Yes, curious, take a look"

The old scholar sighed and said, "Isn't there another vision in Longtang? I went there once a while ago and didn't find anything in the water."

Wang Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then walked back and asked, "Do you know this too?"

The old scholar pointed to the office of the local chronicle and said, "I have been reading here for more than 40 years, but I have not read anything?

Wang Changsheng thought for a while and said, "Then do you think what is written in this place chronicle is true?"

The old scholar smiled and said: "You ask me? If you don't believe it, will you come to check it, even if I say it's false, I'm afraid you won't believe it, right? Young man, let me tell you, you might as well go directly to the gate of Yu, since there is already a vision in Longtang, I estimate that there may be some signs over there, and I estimate that the monks of Nansong Temple should also pass at this time."

Wang Changsheng asked in surprise, "Nansong Temple?"

"You'll find out when you go......"

The Yellow River section at the entrance of Yu is not too far from here, there is a green car that can be reached in more than two hours, before leaving, Wang Changsheng called Huang Yunling, this girl has woken up, but her mood is not very stable, she is still in the stage of small worries, Wang Changsheng comforted her a few words, and told Huang Yunling not to think too much, the problem is all solved, and what to do in the future.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Wang Changsheng boarded the train to the Yellow River section of Yumen.

At the entrance of Yu, the river is gradually narrowing, the river is turning back and forth, surging and surging, the mountain is the wave, it is called "the three-level wave of Yumen", here is a more dangerous place on the Yellow River channel, there are very few boats, in this you can basically see what is called the scene of rushing to the sea and not returning.

More than two hours later, the train entered the station, stopped at the platform, Wang Changsheng got off the car, mixed with the flow of people and walked out of the exit, outside the railway station square, there were several three-jumping tuk tuks parked, and when they saw him coming, they waved and beckoned.

"Big brother, can you go to the gate of Yu?" Wang Changsheng asked when he came to a car.

"Ah, yes, you can go, fifteen yuan" The coachman twisted the accelerator, pointed to the back and said, "Let's go, come up and sit firmly......"

The three jumper tuk tuk tuk "swooped" and jumped out, this kind of car is generally only available in the eighteenth-tier small county, a slightly larger place has long been banned, unsafe, not environmentally friendly, blind scurrying, and the safety performance is extremely poor.

The coachman drove the car, then turned around and asked, "Brother, are you going to see the sacrifice at the gate of Yu?"

Wang Changsheng asked with an "um" sound, "Just these two days, right?"

"The day after tomorrow, these two days are preparing over there, if you go now, there are not many people, tomorrow night there will be more people, I heard that this year is quite lively, isn't it to catch up with the big festival, many people on both sides of the Yellow River have rushed over......

Wang Changsheng has also seen in the local chronicles, at this time of the year, the Yumen will hold a sacrifice to the Yellow River, a small sacrifice a year, a big sacrifice in five years and ten years, thirty years, sixty years of fanfare sacrifice, this year is just to catch up with the biggest wave.

Most of these sacrifices are initiated by the people, and the official will definitely not organize them, so isn't it feudal superstition?

The Yellow River sacrifice has always been, not only at the entrance of Yu, several important sections of the Yellow River will be carried out, the main thing is to pray for good weather and rain, the previous boss surname is to rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the water to eat water, if God does not take care of it, it will starve to death.

Most of the sacrifices now are symbolic meanings, most of them go to the form, but in ancient times, when the sacrifice was more solemn than the New Year, killing pigs and sheep to send sacrifices, and even sometimes if the river is not peaceful for many years, there are boys and girls who send children, and now of course it will not be so outrageous, basically it is to put up a lantern and then recite the sacrificial words or something, at most put some fireworks.
