Zhang Xiaoming was originally drowsy, and when he heard someone mention Kunlun Mountain and the Queen Mother of the West, he suddenly became interested, "Speaking of which, when I was in the Jin Dynasty, I came into contact with a lot of legends and relics about the Han Dynasty, which is very interesting, and it is related to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

Back then, in the Kunlun Secret Realm, the Queen Mother of the West had feasted King Zhou Mu on the bank of Yao Pond, and originally made a vow of goodbye, but King Zhou Mu never returned, and the Queen Mother of the West felt remorseful and regretted that she should not meet the mortals of the Nether, so since then, the world has never seen her trace, until the Han Dynasty.

Xu is the Queen Mother of the West remembered all the benefits of the mortal world again, so she boarded the Ziyun car, but when she saw the auspicious clouds rising, the car flew up out of thin air, and directly came to the palace of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

The jade girl sent a message, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built an altar in order to welcome the immortals.

On the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered people to burn incense, hang a brocade tent, light lamps and candles, display rare and exotic fruits, and welcome the gods.

At the second watch, the Queen Mother of the West was really accompanied by many immortals and came to meet Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

At the banquet, eating delicacies and drinking elixir, the Queen Mother of the West gave Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty a number of peaches to encourage the emperor who devoted himself to cultivation.

Compared with the return, the purple cloud car in which the Queen Mother of the West was riding had ascended to heaven leisurely, and suddenly on the fairy car, the drunken fairy accidentally dropped the hosta on his head to the world.

The hairpin took root, and it turned into a fairy grass, giving birth to a white hosta-shaped flower bud, and since then, there has been a strange flower left by the gods in the world.

Huang Tingjian, a literati in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote a poem on the grounds of this legend: "After the banquet at Yaochi's mother's house, Nenqiong flew into the purple cloud car." The hosta fell to the ground and was picked up by no one and turned into the first flower in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Yang Pingfan listened with relish, "Speaking of which, this Queen Mother of the West really exists, you said that you have come into contact with relics, could it be the peaches that the Queen Mother of the West gave to Liu Che, and there are a few left, and you can see them as specimens, right?"

This was originally a sarcasm, but Zhang Xiaoming looked serious, "That's not true, but after Emperor Wu ate the peaches, he spit out the kernel in the imperial garden of Weiyang Palace, and a towering peach tree grew behind it, the trunk is like jade, rippling, ethereal and clear, and the leaves are shining with bright and gentle starlight, which is really a treasure in the world." ”

"Wow, have you ever eaten that peach?"

Zhang Xiaoming looked embarrassed, "That's not true, Dong Zhuo was cut down during the rebellion, the trunk of the tree was lost to the people, and it was made into a peach wood hairpin by a collector, and then Cao Wei was taken into the inner treasury by the Cao family as a national treasure, and it fell into the arsenal of the Sima family, I was fortunate to see it, it's very interesting." ”

Everyone booed, Zhang Xiaoming looked aggrieved, "I'm really not bragging, although the hairpin is made of peach wood, but the whole body is white and smooth, similar to jade, in the hand, but it does not have the heavy texture of jade, but it is light and fluttering like Li coughing in the wind, "I know some records of the Queen Mother of the West, anyway, there is still a distance from the destination, and I will give you a science popularization." ”

"Erya": "There is a Western Queen Mother Country in the Western Wilderness".

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas": "The country of the Queen Mother is in the Western Wilderness." Whoever has the Tao is taught to the queen mother in Kunlun. ”

"Rui Yingtu": "When the Yellow Emperor, the Queen Mother of the West offered a white jade ring. ”

"The Great Biography of Shangshu": "Shun to Tiande Ancestral Hall, the Queen Mother of the West came to offer five pieces of white rings. ”

"Bamboo Book Chronicles: Guo Note": "King Mu marched west to Kunlun Hill and saw the queen mother in the west. ”

A large number of historical materials have recorded the history of the interaction between the Central Plains people and the Queen Mother of the West, and in ancient times, the emperors would go to Kunlun Mountain to meet the Queen Mother of the West, including the Yellow Emperor, Yao Shun, and Zhou Tianzi...... Wait a minute. The Queen Mother of the West lives in Kunlun Mountain, so who is the Queen Mother of the West?

Scholars found that the Queen Mother of the West is actually the ancient Qiang people, is an ancient nation, but also one of the ancestors of the Chinese nation, in the middle and late Shang Dynasty, another ancient Qiang and the eastward Aryan Caucasian mixed blood, their descendants are the later dog Rong, white wolf, Beidi...... It is the ancestor of many ethnic minorities in the northwest.

The most powerful evidence is that in the 80s of the last century, a 4,000-year-old female corpse was unearthed in the Western Regions, known as "Loulan Beauty".

This Loulan beauty wore fabric and fur clothing, as well as shoes, indicating that there was already a civilized society at that time. 27KK

Archaeologists have repeatedly argued that the Loulan beauty is likely to be the West Queen Mother in ancient times, this Loulan beauty has a very distinct Caucasian characteristics, and we can also restore the West Queen Mother to a certain extent according to her appearance, in addition, the discovery of Loulan beauty has great historical significance, the historical physical evidence of Chinese civilization, directly pushed to 4,000 years, before the Liangzhu site was not confirmed by everyone, this is also the oldest record of our civilization history.

The immortals return to the immortals, and the mortals return to the mortals, there is another version of the story of the jade scratching head that Xiao Ming said just now, which is much more simple.

Legend has it that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favored Mrs. Li and scratched her head with a precious white hosta, which was imitated by the people of the harem, calling it "jade scratching".

In fact, the literati of the Song Dynasty were more fond of the fantasy story of the Queen Mother of the West, and Wang Anshi also wrote a hosta poem, saying: "The fairy of Yaochi feasts on Liuxia, and the hairpin is drunk and makes flowers." Wan Hu fragrant mountain musk, with the wind blowing down to the Jun's house. "It's hard to say whether it's a fake name, in short, the legend of the Queen Mother of the West and the hosta flower was popular in the Song Dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty, because the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl had just been finalized, the legend in people's mouths was that the hosta flower on the ground was said to be the hairpin dropped by the Weaver Girl. If it weren't for Sister Yue's gold chuan, it would be difficult to buy a white hosta for Tiansun. ”

Whether it is the Queen Mother of the West visiting Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at night, or the Weaver Girl Qixi Night Party Cowherd, this fragrant legend is set against the background of the night.

Personally, I think that the imperial garden of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty may not be a white jade peach, but something else, because the hosta flowers open after night, and begin to gradually close in the morning, so only the charming story in the middle of the night is worthy of this plant.

Thinking that the old man Lu You lived in a small dilapidated house at the entrance of Xiaopo Village, drank more turbid wine, then fell asleep, woke up and saw that the night was dark, and the fragrance of hosta flowers wafted in the yard, he happily composed a poem, saying what "people have dispersed when they sit and sleep, and the hosta fragrance is fragrant when the curtain is burning", as if he was not drinking bad wine alone, but drinking and feasting with the fairies of Yaochi, the people have been dispersed, and the fairy also dropped the hairpin on his head in his yard.

Because the hosta flower blooms late at night and has a fragrance, it was also regarded as a lonely flower by the ancients.

Li Dongyang, a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, happened to see hosta flowers at night, accompanied by the moon shadow, lonely and self-appreciative, so he wrote a poem and said: "The frost is self-colored and lonely, and the wind and rain are long-cherished." After getting drunk, lovesickness does not meet, and the moon court is like water and it is difficult to find. ”

Such flowers, although some people love, but after all, can not be among the first-class flowers, the Ming Dynasty Zhang Qiande in the "vase of flowers", the hosta as "eight products and two lives", only a little higher than the Kankan into the stream.

However, there is a recipe in the Dream of Red Mansions, where you put the rouge paste with pollen in the hosta flower stick, and pick a little hairpin and wipe it in the palm of your hand when you use it, probably because of its flower fragrance. ”

After some chatting, before you know it, the temperature in the cabin has risen, and the recruits are no longer shivering, and they have looked out of the portholes, the continuous snow-capped mountains have disappeared, replaced by patches of terraces and hills, the transport plane has flown the most dangerous part of the voyage, and the land below is the colony of Tianzhu under the rule of John.

The transport plane landed safely at the airport, and not far away was a huge barracks, where already there were Guo army officers wearing logos to greet them, and the recruits were shouted and lined up in two lines, all their clothes were taken off and piled up in a pile, and a white officer in an unmarked military uniform came over with a gasoline can, threw it on the pile of clothes, and lit a fire.

Dozens of recruits were in a commotion, and they were indignant at what might have been their best clothes burned, but before they could speak, another sergeant, who was in charge of the fight, carried a large hose, unscrewed the faucet, and the high-pressure water cannon washed the recruits to the ground.

Yang Pingfan saw that he was furious, flew up and kicked the sergeant to the ground gourd, which directly attracted a heavily armed team, and the crossing group was pointed at gunpoint.

Seeing that a clash was about to start, Captain Rubio, who was fortunately carried down, found out and immediately shouted to stop.

"Oh my God, why did you get into a fight with these thieves as soon as you got off the plane?"

Yang Pingfan glanced at him, "My compatriots were abused as soon as they got off the plane, so I took action." ”

Rubio was stunned when he heard this, and then he smiled, "This is purely a misunderstanding, there are special military uniforms in the barracks, the supplies are sufficient, and the recruits do not need to bring their own, as for flushing with water, there is disinfectant in this water, and each wave of transport planes must be washed again, in order to prevent recruits from having fleas or something, you know, such a dense crowd ......"

Yang Pingfan was silent, and paused before speaking, "They are people, not pigs, maybe in a few days, maybe in a few months, they are the soldiers who will go up with guns and fight the Dongying people, I think you know who is supporting the Far East battlefield now, and there should be a minimum of respect for the soldiers." ”

Captain Rubio himself is a transport pilot, and he has to carry out a mission next, not to mention that the guys who have passed on the lineage are all gone, and they are seriously injured, so it is naturally impossible to continue to fly west with the crossing team.

From Tianzhu in South Asia to the Citigroup country half a world away, the choice of transportation is extremely limited, in the 40s, the aviation industry has been highly developed, before the war there is no shortage of transnational and intercontinental flights, short-distance flights are not uncommon, even the poor Ming country has a small number of flights, the great poet Xu Zhimo was killed in a plane crash.
