After Xingzhe finished telling a story, the soldiers were all unsatisfied, and there were very few mythological stories or collections in the lobby, most of them were poetry collections or interpretation books.

So these soldiers haven't heard too many myths and stories at all, they have only heard some myths and legends passed down by the common people, so the myths and legends that Xingzhe told are very novel to them.

And on the way to the march, it is a very boring thing, you can hear some interesting stories, but you can also make the journey more interesting.

Looking at the expectant expressions of the soldiers one by one, Xingzhe could only obey their wishes and told a few more mythological stories related to the rain god.

It is said that before Yu ruled the water, there should be a dragon to draw the ground with the tail, for Yu to draw the waterway route that should be excavated by the dredged water, there is also a legend that Yu ruled the water when the river was dredged, dug up the mountain rock, there should be the dragon in front of the tail, there is a turtle in the back of the dredging, when the dredging to Wushan County, a Ying Long drew the wrong waterway, was executed by Yu. Wuxian County still has two place names: Staggered Gorge and Cutting Dragon Terrace.

Traditionally, Yinglong was a winged dragon with a thin neck and a large belly and a scaly body. There are spines on the spine, strong limbs, and a preference for solitude.

There was once a poem about Ying Long: "When Ying Long did not rise, it was hidden at the bottom of the abyss, and if it was not a cloud, it would not step on it, and if it was lifted, it would soar into the sky." For example, the wild orchid grass, the secluded residence is often fragrant, the clear view is far away, and the fragrance is seen for thousands of miles. Seclusion can be ambitious, and self-seeing is good. ”

This poem actually refers to people by the dragon, and the title is played.

Yushi Yinglong is a younger brother of the Yellow Emperor. It is said that "ying" is the sound of geese chirping. At that time, the geese often flew low on the high slopes of the loess, and the old geese that led the team chirped in the air, and the following geese and birds responded one after another, so as not to leave anyone behind. This is where the words "promise", "response", "response", "response", "response", etc., come from.

Ying Long has the characteristics of a goose, the body is light, easily climb to the top of the mountain, stand still in the sunlight, everyone looks up, what they see is a winged goose-shaped flying dragon, so it is called Ying Long, that is, the goose dragon.

It is said that Ying Long can only control the flowing water on the ground, when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou, he intercepted the Lingshan River, secretly accumulated the water level, in a vain attempt to flood Chiyou's camp in one fell swoop, but was poured into a mess by the heavy rain of the rain master, harming others and himself.

From the above legends, it can be seen that Buyu is not a unique function of Ying Long, because Chiyou also invited a regular god - the rain master.

But there is no doubt that Ying Long has the ability to spread the rain. It is said that after the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou, because Ying Long could no longer go to heaven, the ancestors used it to create a "soil dragon" shaped like Ying Long, and at the same time used witchcraft to make the heavens rain down. Therefore, calling the wind and rain with the "earth dragon" has become an indispensable part of praying for rain.

Moreover, although there were many names for the rain master in ancient times, with the popularization of dragon worship, the image and even the name of other rain masters were weakened and blurred, and only the image of the dragon was increasingly strengthened, so the dragon also became the rain master.

There is also a version that Ying Long will fly into the sky and spit water, which doesn't seem to be raining, but just a simple superposition of the two skills of "flying" and "spitting water". The worst thing is that he can't put it away, and as a result, so much saliva he spit out was collected by the rain master, causing a counterattack, causing the Yellow Army to be flooded with his saliva. When it came time for Dayu to control the water, he could only help others sweep the floor with his tail and draw lines.

In fact, the god in charge of the rain in the mythology of the rain master has a screen, also called a number screen, and also called Xuanming. They are actually red pine nuts, and legend has it that they were the rain masters who applied rain during the time of Emperor Yan Shennong.

This Mr. Chi Songzi has a ability to drift down with the wind and rain, he once served as the rain master of the Yan Emperor Shennong's clan, and later got something like immortal medicine from the West Heavenly Mother, he can burn himself into the fire, and go up and down with the wind and rain.

became an immortal, went to the sky, and by the way, he also abducted the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan. It wasn't until Gao Xin's time that Chi Songzi remembered his duty and returned to the world to be a rain master.

Between Emperor Yan and Gaoxin, there are three generations of Yellow Emperor, Shaohao and Gaoyang, and it turns out that there has been no rain for hundreds of years. Legend has it that in ancient times, people lived by gathering, fishing and hunting, and if they didn't catch anything, they had to starve, and life was difficult.

Later, Shennong's family used wood to make plows and plows, taught everyone to plant grains, harvest them in autumn and hide them in winter, and their lives improved. So Shennong's clan was raised as the leader by everyone.

Year after year, a rare drought struck, and for months without a drop of rain falling from the sky, all the millet in the fields withered. In the place where the drought is the heaviest, the rivers are exhausted and the mountains are collapsed, all of them have become moraines, and even people and animals are dying of thirst.

When Shennong's hair was about to turn white, he ran out of nowhere to run an unkempt and strange wild man, with a straw collar on the top, a leather skirt on the bottom, and a willow branch in his hand.

The savage introduced himself and said: "My name is Chi Songzi, and I have been cultivating for many years with my master Taoist in the stone room of the Queen Mother of Shangxi in Kunlun. The equatorial people often turn into flying dragons, travel south to Hengyue, and I also turn into a red dragon, follow him, and learn the skill of rain. ”

Shennong's heart was happy when he heard this, and let him show it immediately. But I saw that the red pine nut took out a powder called: "Ice Jade Powder" and swallowed it, turned into a red dragon, and flew into the sky. Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and a heavy downpour poured down, and the crops that were about to die were restored to their lush vitality. Shennong's family was overjoyed, and he set up red pine nuts as the rain master, and was in charge of the rain and rain.

After Shennong's became an immortal, the Yellow Emperor succeeded as the leader, and the leader of Jiuli, Chi You, was not convinced, raised troops and rebelled, and even Chi Songzi defected to the past.

When the Yellow Emperor led the tribes to fight with Chiyou and the field of Zhuolu, Chi Songzi turned into a dragon, and Fei Lian turned into a fawn, casting spells together.

In an instant, the sky was dark, rocks and sand, torrential rain and strong winds, and hurricanes were blowing. The Yellow Emperor and his subordinates were in a chaos, and they couldn't even distinguish the south, south, and northwest, and they could still fight?

Chiyou took the opportunity to launch an attack, killing the opponent and abandoning his armor. That's it. Relying on the advantages of Fei Lian and Chi Songzi to conquer the wind and summon rain, Chi You defeated the Yellow Emperor nine times in a row, forcing the Yellow Emperor to retreat again and again, until he retreated to Mount Tai.

The Yellow Emperor gathered his ministers in Mount Tai, and after discussing for three days and three nights, he finally designed two magic weapons to break the enemy - Sinan car and cowhide drum.

The Sinan car has two layers, a total of twenty-eight wheels, and there is a woodcut man with a finger in front of the car. When the wheels roll, there are a total of 80 cowhide drums, and when they are drummed together, the sound can resound for 3,800 miles. So the Yellow Emperor fought a decisive battle with Chi You again.

Chiyou still makes Fei Lian and red pine nuts call for wind and rain, and smoke sprays. This time, the Yellow Emperor relied on the Sinan car, never lost his way, and insisted on fighting, and then, the minister Rong Cheng and others led people to beat the cowhide drum, which suddenly shocked the earth, cracked the rocks and collapsed the clouds, frightened Fei Lian and Chi Songzi's soul scattered, and quickly restored the fierce nature, and fled with Chi You.

The Yellow Emperor waved his army in pursuit, chased it all the way to Zhuolu, and finally won a complete victory, and also captured Chi Songzi and Fei Lian alive. Because these two people were subdued, the Yellow Emperor still called Chi Songzi to be the rain master, and named Feilian as the wind uncle, asking them to change from evil to good, and benefit the people from now on.

After the Five Emperors, no one in the world can control the wind and rain masters anymore, so their worship is included in the national rituals, the purpose is still to pray for good wind and rain, abundant grains, and peace. The ugly faces of these two gods have also become a delicate boy accompanied by a long-bearded official, symbolizing that the rain comes with the wind and the wind stops the rain.
