Chapter 455: The Origin of the Yao Clan

"Of course, legends are legends, but you just said that the god that this nation believes in is a dog, although the origin of the dog god has some legendary elements, but I suddenly thought that Minister Yuan Ru said before that all kinds of reasons have been ruled out, and there is only one left, that is, the theory of ghosts and gods." Uncle Lu said.

"Uncle Lu, are you saying that this matter was caused by ghosts and gods? Like the princess's grave before? Yun Ning asked.

"I don't know, you have to ask Yin Yin about this, she is an expert in this area." Uncle Lu said.

"At the moment, it has nothing to do with ghosts." I said decisively.

"How can you be so sure?" Yun Ximing asked.

"Whenever I arrive at a place, I am already used to using yin and yang to check first, this Bayun villager is simple and simple, and he accumulates blessings with good deeds, such a blessed land, there are no lonely souls and wild ghosts, so this matter has nothing to do with ghosts." I say.

"That's over, you can't find it out from a scientific point of view, and you can't find out from a non-scientific point of view, it's hard to do it, this is another unsolved mystery in the world." Dazhe said.

"I only said that this matter has nothing to do with ghosts, but I don't say that it has nothing to do with God." I say.

"So, do you know what the reason is?" Yun Ximing said.

"I don't know, but I have a guess." I said, "Ximing, you are known as a mobile encyclopedia, so do you know how the origin of the Yao people is defined in the current researched history?" ”

"I know that the origin of various ethnic minorities has been a mystery since ancient times, and the history is long. There is no way to verify, and there are many speculations about the origin of the Yao people, but the most accurate one is currently believed to be Chi Youyi. As for the origin of the Yao people, there are different theories, either that they originated from Shanyue, or that they originated from Wuximan, or that the origin of the Yao people is diverse. However, most people believe that the Yao people have a relationship with the ancient Jingman, Changsha Wulingman, etc. The Yao people are an ancient ethnic group whose history dates back thousands of years. The Yao people first lived in the Yellow River Valley, and according to the three myths and legends of Pang, crossing the sea and Changgu, it is inferred that the ancestors of the Yao people were a relatively powerful clan. He lives in the Central Plains. The legend of the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou. In our country, it can be said that it has become a household name. Chiyou is the most recognized and influential ancestor of the Yao people. In ancient times, primitive humans living in the lower reaches of the Yellow River and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China formed a tribal alliance named Jiuli with Chi You as the leader five or six thousand years ago. The Chiyou tribe was defeated by the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, and the remnants fled south and merged into the Nanban tribe. After a period of recuperation. In the Jianghuai region, a large tribe was formed, the Sanmiao. Collectively referred to as Nanban. Yao also called himself You Mian, Mian is the voice of the barbarian, and the Nanban contains You no doubt. During Yu's reign in the Central Plains. After a long battle, Sanmiao was finally defeated, and Sanmiao disintegrated. After the ancestors of the Yao people were the ancient Jiuli and Sanmiao, they were initially active in the Jiangnan region of China, and then gradually looked for a living base in the north, entering the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, after the Chiyou tribal alliance was defeated, the chieftain was killed, and the remnants were forced to migrate to the Siyi border, and the main part retreated into the Jianghuai area, and merged into the Nanban or Dongyi groups respectively, becoming an important part of these groups. Due to the Sanmiao War between Chiyou and the Yellow Emperor, the Yan Emperor and the Shun Emperor, the Yao people were forced to migrate, forming a situation of great differentiation and combination, and entering the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the migration and differentiation activities were still continuing. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, some barbarians, including the ancestors of the Yao people, once crossed the Jiangbei and entered the Henan and Anhui regions. Because the barbarians were at the forefront of the feudal power contention between the northern and southern dynasties, they became the object of contention or conquest between the two dynasties, which led to the second great migration, great differentiation and great integration of the Yao people in history. In order to oppose feudal separatist rule, oppose forced assimilation, and save the nation from peril, Yao and Miao Xianmin reorganized into a powerful tribal alliance called Mo Xi to wage a tenacious struggle against feudal rule. His descendants migrated to the southwest, and in present-day Hunan and Hubei, they quickly combined with the local aborigines and formed a tribal group. The Yao people slowly moved south from the Baishan Gorge around Dongting Lake in central China, and settled in Changsha County and Wuling County, where they merged with the local indigenous peoples, who were known as Changsha Wulingman or Wuxi Man. Yun Ximing's statement was as accurate as a textbook, and Dazhe's jaw was about to fall when he heard it.

"Xi Ming is right, this is the origin of the Yao people, at least the historical information that we know so far, it can be inferred that this is the case. So there is a character involved in this, which is Chiyou. I said.

"What does Chiyou have to do with this?" Arrow asked.

"Of course it doesn't matter what you've heard now, but after listening to me, think about it. Chiyou is the chief of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, and the world only knows that Chiyou is the ancestor of the Miao people, but they don't know his relationship with the Yao people. In Han mythology, he is the god of martial arts, with mixed reviews and opinions, some people admire it, and some people spurn it. Chiyou once fought with Emperor Yan and later defeated Emperor Yan. So, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang joined forces to fight Chiyou. Chi You led eighty-one brothers to raise troops to fight the Yellow Emperor for the world, and launched a fierce battle in Zhuolu. Legend has it that Chiyou has eight legs, three heads and six arms, a copper head and an iron forehead, and is invulnerable. He is good at using knives, axes, and ge, and is extremely brave and brave. The Yellow Emperor is invincible, so please ask the gods to help him break it. The sky was dark, and the blood flowed like a river. Chiyou was killed by the Yellow Emperor, and the emperor beheaded his head and buried it, and the head turned into a blood maple forest. Later, the Yellow Emperor was especially the master of the army, that is, the god of war. His brave image is still feared, and the Yellow Emperor painted his image on the military flag to encourage his army to fight bravely. ”

There are three theories about the specific situation, one says that after the Yellow Emperor defeated the Yan Emperor in the Battle of Hanquan, the Yellow Emperor rebelled, and the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou in the Battle of Zhuolu, thus consolidating the position of the Son of Heaven. The second theory is that Chiyou expelled Emperor Yan, Emperor Red appealed to the Yellow Emperor, and the two emperors joined forces to kill Chiyou in Zhongji. The last version is that Chi You made an army to attack the Yellow Emperor, and the Yellow Emperor ordered Ying Long to fight, and the two sides fought in the field of Jizhou, and Chi You was defeated and killed. Although there are slight differences in the various theories, there is no doubt that Chi You and the Yellow Emperor were at war. The course of the war was more tortuous and mythical. As for the ending of Chi You, the legend mostly says that the army was defeated and killed, or surrendered to the Yellow Emperor and dominated the military! Later, the world was in turmoil, the Yellow Emperor painted the image of Chi You, deterring the world, the world thought that Chi You was immortal, and lived in the shogunate of the Yellow Emperor, so all the princes came to surrender. I said.

"But Yin Yin, we all know the stories of these Chiyou, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the strange disease of the Yao clan this time." Dazhe said.

"I've been looking at our Kui clan's library recently, the books in our family's library are all arranged in chronological order, I read a few books, and found a lot of things that don't match the description in history, including the record of Chiyou's ending." I say.

"What does the book say?" Yun Ximing asked.

The book says that the Yellow Emperor killed Chi You and made his body and head different, but he couldn't kill him completely, so the Yellow Emperor placed his body and head separately. One of Chiyou's generals found Chiyou's body and head and saved Chiyou. But Chiyou's brother is dead, and only this last person is left among his cronies, and this person also sacrificed himself to change into Chiyou's clothes when Chiyou was seriously injured and in a desperate situation, and committed suicide by hitting a cliff for the Lord. When the chasing soldiers arrived, they were dressed as Chiyou, so they all thought that Chiyou was dead. And the real Chi You came to Zhuolu Alum Mountain Town, recalling that he no longer had the ability to compete with the Yellow Emperor, and regretted in his heart, Chi You, who originally had an immortal body, turned out to be all white overnight, described as withered, and finally died of depression. I said.

"The hair was all white overnight, and the description was withered, and it ended up depressed, yes." Dazhe said, "No wonder these people of the Yao tribe all have this strange disease, it turns out that their ancestors have such genes." ”

"Although I can't say for sure now, I always feel that this is not a coincidence, it may be an inevitability." I say.

"Sister Yinyin, do you want to tell me that the Yao people have such a strange disease of premature aging, in fact, it has been arranged a long time ago?" Yun Ning asked.

"Nothing in the world is arranged, even if you believe in fate, it depends on the actual changes, I don't know what this strange disease is, it may be a genetic disease in ancient times, starting from Chiyou, a genotypic disease that will break out every too many years, just like an atavistic phenomenon, or it may be a kind of curse that can't be said, after all, what happened between Chiyou and the Yellow Emperor at that time, no one can say." I say.

"But I still don't understand a little, why are the people in other villages fine, but the people in this village are not all concentrated in this village, right?" Yun Xian asked.

"This is also a question that I haven't figured out until now, it stands to reason that this village is not closed, and there is no reason that only the people in this village are sick, so in the final analysis, it may be that we have missed some important information." I say.

Sister Wang Na's phone wanted to ring at the right time, she answered the phone, and while answering the phone, she frowned, and when she hung up the phone, we quickly asked what happened, Sister Wang Na was silent for a while, and then said.

"What you just said has been fulfilled, and just now in the next village, there is also a patient who has been sent to the county central hospital, and the disease has finally begun to spread." Sister Wang Na said.

"It's all my fault, it's really a crow's mouth, what are you doing with this." Yun Xian felt deep self-reproach.

"It's not your fault, it's supposed to develop like this, without further ado, let's hurry up and look for clues in the village." As I spoke, I turned around and was about to take everyone into the village, but I found a person standing behind us at some point, staring straight at us, I was startled by him, and asked in surprise, "Who are you?"
