Chapter 69

"Hehehe, if you want to know your ins and outs, then you have to let me do the math slowly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€œ

After the Buddha finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand, put it on his thigh, pinched it for a while, and then said: "Tens of millions of years ago, our earth was still in the era of famine, due to the changes in the universe, suddenly two planets ran towards us, and the supreme leader of the netherworld at that time was already Nuwa Niangniang, in order to control the impact of these two planets on the earth, they united the gods, but still after a hard battle, in the process, due to the rapid operation, a strong wind was formed, Because of the baptism of wind and sun, coupled with the accidental coincidence of the earth's atmosphere, the combination of yin and yang gave birth to you, in fact, since you have life, it has been thousands of years from now. ā€œ

I really felt very impressed that year, because although I don't know if what the Buddha said about the experience that I didn't know before was true, but since I remembered, I still felt a little unconvinced, and then asked: "You said too far, anyway, you can't verify it, so can you figure out who I came here with this time, and what is his origin?" ā€œ

"Hehehe, this is not difficult, let me calculate it slowly." After the Buddha finished speaking, he still pinched his fingers again, and his mouth seemed to be chanting, and after only a while, he said: "It is Cihang Dao people who came with you, but you have changed it to Cihang Zhenren, if you want to talk about his origin, it is really not simple, but this has to start with another person." ā€œ

"Whom?" That year was very curious, and couldn't help but ask.

"Hehehe, if you want to talk about this person, you may have a lot of relationship with you, this person is the current fire god Zhurong." The biggest characteristic of the Buddha is probably that he always laughs and speaks unhurriedly.

"Wow, Zhu Rong, that's a great character, but hasn't he died for thousands of years, so hurry up and tell me what's going on?"

"Hehehe, don't worry, let me tell you slowly." After the Buddha finished speaking, he seemed to fall into contemplation, and as if he was reminiscing, he said slowly: "When the Yellow Emperor had a fire official, named Zhu Rong, his name was Li when he was a child, and he was the son of a clan leader. At that time, the tunnel people invented drilling wood to make fire, and it was not possible to save and use fire. But Li especially likes to be close to fire. So when I was a teenager, I became an expert in managing fire. The fire is in his hands, and as long as it is not transmitted over long distances, it can be preserved for a long time.

Lai would use fire to cook vegetables, cook rice, use fire to keep warm, light up, drive away wild beasts, and drive away mosquitoes. These skills were remarkable at that time. Therefore, everyone respects him very much. Once, when Li's father took the entire clan on a long migration, Li saw that it was inconvenient to walk with the fire, so he only brought the sharp stones used to drill wood for the fire with him.

Once, as soon as everyone settled down, Li took out a sharp stone, found a large barrel of wood, and sat in front of a stone mountain to "snort" and drill into a fire. Drilling, drilling, drilling for three whole hours, and there was no smoke yet, Li was very angry, he was panting in his mouth, very unhappy. But he couldn't do it without fire, so he had to drill again. Drilling, drilling, His face turned black and red with anger, and he stood up with a "whew" and smashed the sharp stone into the stone mountain. Unexpectedly, the sharp stones that had been drilled very hot hit the stone mountain, and several dazzling sparks appeared with a "click". The clever Li saw it and quickly came up with a new way to make fire. He picked some sun-dried reeds, and knocked them a few times with two sharp stones against the reeds, and the sparks splashed on the reeds, and they "squeaked" and smoked. Blow softly, and the flames will go up.

Since Li discovered the method of making fire from stones, there is no longer a need to spend a lot of effort to drill wood to make fire, and there is no need to do everything possible to preserve the fire. The Yellow Emperor of the Central Plains knew that Li had such a great merit, so he invited him to go and made him a fire official specializing in fire management. The Yellow Emperor valued him very much, and said: "Li, I'll give you a big name, just call Zhu Rong, Zhu is forever, Rong is light, may you always bring light to the world." Li was very happy to hear this, and quickly kowtowed to thank him. Since then, everyone has changed their name to Zhurong.

During the reign of the Yellow Emperor, there was a clan leader named Chi You in the south, who often invaded the Central Plains and made it impossible for the people of the Central Plains to live. The Yellow Emperor ordered the people of the Central Plains to unite, led by Zhu Rong and several other generals, to crusade against Chiyou, who was overwhelming, especially his ninety-nine eighty-one brothers, all dressed in animal skins, wearing horns, and able to spray thick fog in their mouths, so not majestic. At the beginning of the war, the Yellow Emperor's troops lost their way as soon as they got into the fog, and the troops lost contact with each other and did not care for each other. Chi You's troops took advantage of the situation to pounce on them, and the Yellow Emperor's troops were defeated, and they fled north until Zhuolu before stopping.

The Yellow Emperor was surrounded by Chiyou in Zhuolu and did not dare to fight for a long time. Soon, thanks to the invention of the compass, he was no longer afraid of dense fog. Later, Zhu Rong saw that Chiyou's subordinates were wearing animal skins, and offered another plan to teach each of his subordinates to light a torch and set fires everywhere, burning Chiyou's troops and fleeing to the south in a panic. The Yellow Emperor drove the guide car and led the troops to chase south. Drove across the Yellow River, across the Yangtze River, and until the hill of Lishan, and finally killed Chi You. Zhu Rong made great contributions because of his invention of the tactics of fire attack, and the Yellow Emperor rewarded him heavily, and he became an important minister of the Yellow Emperor.

When the Yellow Emperor's troops returned to the dynasty, they passed by a group of mountains south of Yunmengze. The Yellow Emperor called Zhu Rong to him and deliberately asked, "What is this mountain called?" Zhu Rong replied: "This is called Hengshan." The Yellow Emperor asked again, "What is the origin of this mountain?" Zhu Rong replied again: "In ancient times, the heavens and the earth were chaotic, like an egg. The Pangu clan opened the world and had a living being. He lived for 18,000 years, and after his death, he lay on the land of the Central Plains, with his head facing east, and became Mount Tai; The toes are in the west, becoming Huashan; The abdomen is bulging and becomes Songshan; The right hand faces north, and becomes the Heng Mountain; The left hand faces south, and it becomes the Hengshan Mountain in front of you. As soon as he finished speaking, the Yellow Emperor immediately asked: "So, why is it called Hengshan." Zhu Rong replied immediately? "This mountain lies between Yunmeng and Jiuzhi, like a stalk, which can weigh the weight of heaven and earth, and measure the morality of the emperor, so it is called Hengshan." The Yellow Emperor was very happy to see him answered, and said with a smile: "Wow! You are so familiar with the affairs of the South, I want to entrust you with a heavy responsibility! But the Yellow Emperor did not say what the heavy task was.

The team was stationed in Hengshan. The Yellow Emperor ascended to the highest peak and accepted the worship of various tribes in the south. Many clan leaders will gather together, everyone is very happy, Zhu Rong on a whim, played the Yellow Emperor's own music - the music of the salty pond, and the Yellow Emperor's concubine and ancestor also stepped on the beat and danced. When everyone saw it, they all jumped around the Yellow Emperor. After dancing happily, the Yellow Emperor told everyone to calm down and said: "Since I took the throne, I have been leveling the elbows, killing the Chiyou, formulating the calendar, inventing writing, creating music and rhythm, compiling medical books, and the ancestors have cultivated silkworms and silkworms, and set the system of clothes. Now that the world is unified, I want to lay the five mountains: Dongyue Tai SX Yue Huashan, Nanyue Heng Mountain, North Yue Heng Mountain, and Zhongyue Song Mountain. From now on, Huo Zheng Zhurong guards Nanyue. When everyone heard this, they all shouted loudly: "Long life without borders!" Longevity without borders! Only then did Zhu Rong know that this was what the Yellow Emperor said about entrusting him with a heavy responsibility.

After the Yellow Emperor left, Zhu Rong was left in Hengshan to officially manage the affairs of the south. He lived on the highest peak of Hengshan Mountain and often visited the people everywhere. When he saw that the people here often ate raw food, he told them to make a fire and teach them to cook it before eating. When he saw that the people were groping in the darkness at night, he told them to use the fire pine. When he saw that there was a lot of miasma and mosquitoes, and that the people were often sick, he told them to light a fire and smoke to drive away the mosquitoes and the miasma. The people respected him very much, and every year after the autumn harvest in August, they came in droves to worship him. Everyone said: "Zhu Rong, we are prosperous, chickens and ducks are flocks, and grains are abundant." You have brought us so many benefits, we thank you, and we will honor you as emperor. You use fire, and the fire is red, so let's call you the Red Emperor! Since then, Zhu Rong has been respected by everyone as the Red Emperor. ā€

Just when everyone was living and working in peace and contentment, suddenly lightning and thunder roared, bringing earth-shaking killing cries from the Central Plains. The people were so frightened that they all came to ask Zhu Rong what was going on. Zhu Rong told them: "This is Gonggong and Zhuan Qi fighting for the throne, and there is a fight." They fought for a long time, but they still didn't know whether they won or lost, and they were so angry that they jumped and crashed headlong into Buzhou Mountain. This Buzhou Mountain turned out to be an extraordinary mountain, which held the sky and did not let the sky fall; It ties the earth and does not let it tilt.

Gonggong crashed headlong, only to hear a loud "boom", sparks splashed, illuminating the sky for a long time, the pillar supporting the sky was broken, and the rope that tied the earth was also broken. From then on, the sky tilted to the northwest, and the sun, moon and stars all set in the northwest direction. The earth slopes to the southeast, and the water of the rivers and lakes flows in the southeast direction. Originally, the Tianyan of Nanyue Hengshan was about to collapse, and this piece of land was about to be turned over in a flash. One by one, the people hugged the big trees and climbed the rocks, and they were so frightened that they cried. Zhu Rong hurriedly used his whole body skills, and the genius who supported this place like a big pillar did not collapse, and the mountain did not collapse. There is a poet who also wrote about this incident: "The southeast is inferior, and Weiyue is a pillar stone." Before wishing Rongju, on the vermilion bird. Later, another poet also wrote: "The earth is full of peaks, and it supports the South Chutian." Zhu Rong lived to be more than 100 years old on Nanyue Mountain before dying. The people buried him on a peak in Nanyue Mountain, and named this peak Chidi Peak. The highest peak he has lived in has always been called Zhurong Peak. On the top of Zhurong Peak, the people built a Zhurong Hall to commemorate his merits forever. ā€œ

"Then may I ask the Buddha, where did you hear all this from you?" The Buddha talked endlessly for a long time, but he didn't expect that year, not only did he not say a word of thanks, but also questioned unhappily.
