"The Legend of the Three Sons of the Classic of Mountains and Seas" Chiyou Chapter 2

There is a famous saying in China: the winner is king, and the loser is the villain.

This may not only be in China, but also in foreign countries, and it is a truth that cannot be broken, knocked flat, or hammered.

During the Spring and Autumn Period in China, there was a very famous story that happened as follows:

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Jin Linggong was very brutal in power, and Zhao Dun persuaded him to change his style. Jin Linggong didn't listen to the advice, and wanted to kill Zhao Dun, so Zhao Dun had to flee. In the end, Zhao pierced and killed Jin Linggong, but Taishi Donghu wanted to write Zhao Dun to kill his monarch in the history books. Zhao Dun was not convinced and asked for a rewrite. Dong Hu said: "You are the prime minister, the monarch was killed, you don't please the thief, you are the mastermind, I will not change this matter even if I die." Later, Dong Hu was killed by Zhao Dun.

This is the story of "Dong Fox Straight Pen".

The reason why this story was circulated in later generations was because I wanted to warn those who wrote history to be upright, write straightforwardly, and not deceive and refer to the deer as a horse.

In the TV series "The Legend of the Kingdoms of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty", it seems that Zhao Dun killed three Taishi in a row, killed Taishi 1 and Taishi 2, killed Taishi 2 and Taishi 3, killed Taishi 3 and Taishi 4...... finally forced Zhao Dun not to dare to rewrite history without authorization, in order to prove the responsibility of Taishi, that is, to write straight, and to tell future generations that the historical records are true and false.

Therefore, some people say: The historical records before the Spring and Autumn Period are relatively reliable.

Of course, it refers to the fact that the historical records of the Spring and Autumn Period or before the Spring and Autumn Period are more reliable, not that the historical records of the people after the Spring and Autumn Period, such as the Qin, Han, Tang, Song, Yuan, and Qing dynasties, are more reliable.

It is said that since the Warring States Period, the rulers of various dynasties have served their own class with the content of the historical books, covering up many historical truths, and future generations can only peek into the clouds and smoke of the official history or the barnyard words of the wild history.

I have this great emotion because I am about to talk about the great ancestor of "Chiyou".

In the so-called official history, Chi You is a big man who has been tampered with beyond recognition.

For example, the word "Chiyou" contains an extremely depreciatory connotation.

Chi: Ignorance, stupidity.

Especially: Specific, prominent.

The word "Chiyou" can be interpreted as: to highlight the ignorant people.

In the face of the victors, aren't the losers all degraded as "prominent ignorance"?

In the traditional sense, we often call ourselves the descendants of Yan and Huang, and forget Chi You, and forget the words "Li people", and in many novels created by later generations, Chi You is without exception portrayed as a villain, brutal, fierce, and greedy, but I don't know that there are many people behind him.

In fact, Chiyou can also be called one of the ancestors of China, and "Li people" is the best commentary on his memory.

As for the conclusion of the two emperors of Yan and Huang and Chi You, they should both be heroes of the nation, great figures who have made outstanding contributions to the Chinese nation, and the war between the two sides can be called a conflict for the well-being of the people.

Some gossip even said: Chiyou is the ancestor of the local pure Han people, and the Yellow Emperor was originally a foreign invader.

This is also the case in many of the relevant texts.

There are many records about Chiyou, but here are just a few excerpts to illustrate:

1. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness of the North" contains: "Chi You fought against the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor ordered the dragon to attack the wilderness of Jizhou. Should be dragon animal water. Chi You please wind and rain master to wind and rain. The Yellow Emperor is a goddess of heaven, and when the rain stops, he kills Chi You".

2. "Narrative of Differences" cloud: Chi You has cow hooves, four eyes and six hands, ears and temples like swords, horns on his head, and can eat iron and stone.

3. Volume 100 of "The Seven Labels of the Cloud Pipe" "Xuanyuan Benji" says: The Yellow Emperor killed the Chi especially on the hill of Li Mountain, threw his weapon on the Song Mountain in the great wilderness, and turned into a forest of maple trees.

Fourth, in the "Dream Creek Writings": (Yellow Emperor) passed on the war, especially in Jizhong and Shu (cut off the head of the body called Shu), which is called "Jie" (here later is Xie Zhou). Jiezhou Yanze, the halogen color is red, and the slang is called "Chiyou blood".

5. "Huanglan • Tomb Record" contains: Chiyou Tomb, in the city of Kan Township, Shouzhang County, Dongping County, is seven zhang high, and the people often worship it in October. From time to time, there is a red air out of the sky, such as a silk silk, and the folk name is "Chiyou Banner".

Sixth, it is also recorded in the "Shu Yizhi" that Jizhou (now Hebei) has a music name "Chiyou Opera", and people wear horns on their heads and play against each other; In the villages of Taiyuan, people often worship the god Chiyou, Qin Shi Huang also used to worship Chiyou, and even the emperors and generals of later generations often worship Chiyou for protection before they go on expedition, because of their might and bravery. There is a song called "Maple Song" in the "Ancient Songs of the Miao Nationality" in southeast Qiandong, which is also in memory of Chiyou.

From the above records, it can probably be seen that Chiyou is still very prestigious among the people, and it is also very sympathetic, which also shows the view that "Chiyou is the ancestor of the local pure Han people".

However, the winner is king, and the loser is the loser!

The winner is king, and he can manipulate everything at will, including pointing to the deer as a horse and tampering with history;

The loser is a coward, so he has to lie down like a corpse, and let others smear and spurn.

When people sang the praises of the great achievements of Emperor Yan and Huang, Chi You naturally became the object of discredit. Thousands of years later, the Yanhuang people have been in the same line, and the Chiyou people have also been indomitable, and finally merged into one, standing on the vast land of the east of the world, such as the grandeur of mountains and rivers, and the eternal existence of the sun and the moon.

It's time to rehabilitate Chi You, so that we, the descendants of Yan and Huang, and the people of Li will never forget those who once dominated this hot land.

Forgetting history, cutting history, destroying history,

It means betrayal,

It means that it will always be like a wandering duckweed, unable to find the root and destination of its soul.

Therefore, in order to correct Chi You's name and pass it on to future generations, he was specially written into the novel "The Legend of the Three Sons of the Classic of Mountains and Seas", slightly expressing the feeling of looking up to the mountains and seas and revering the ancestral spirits, although it was only a little description of the rippling water.

Only Chiyou [Lingtai Fengshen], remembered and worshiped by future generations, can live up to his former mountain and sea name:

The greatness is especially beautiful, and Jiuli rises.

Megatron Huaxiaxi, the pioneer of civilization!

[Lingtai Fengshen] Shi Chi is especially the chief of the six mansions of Chongwei,

The honorific title is: the lord of the mountains and seas of Kyushu, the god king of the six provinces of Lingtai.

The gods of the six prefectures under the jurisdiction of Chongwei were all killed in Bujiang Mountain for the righteous act of protecting the territory and protecting the people, the list is as follows:

1. Three people with the government: Dai Mao, Uncle Wu, and Wei Dao;

2. Fourteen people in the Mansion (Yin and Yang of the Mansion): Zhao Hai, Jiaoxin, Jin Ming, Fu Shen, Shen Mai, Fu Yang, Chang Yu, Ju Liao Thin, Ju Jiao Thin (female), Ju Gu Thin, Shoulder Poison, Di Cang, Chen Qi, Feng Chi;

3. Eleven Chongfu: Qi Chong (Zhongqu Mountain Barge Clan), Gu Heng, Dahe, Qi Xuan (Shenlai), Simu, Zhong Zhu, Mang, Shangqu, Yin Xuan (Bitter Mountain Goddess), Shiguan (God Go), Fu Tonggu, Youmeng;

4. Weifu (Yin and Yang) ten: Jinmen, Yangjiao, Yangbai, Changyu, Zhubin, Chongmen, Fushe, Daheng, Fu Ai, and Period Gate.
