In ancient times, chaos was not opened. There is no heaven and earth, no sun, moon and stars, no rivers, lakes and seas, no fish, insects, birds and beasts, and no human beings. In the middle of this chaos, there is a round thing, pregnant with a dragon's head and a snake body, and the Pangu giant sleeps in it. One day, the giant woke up, bored, and cleaved the chaos. The clear air rises and turns into the sky, and the turbid gas sinks into the earth. The heavens grew a foot every day, and the earth grew a foot thicker every day, and the giant stood up to the heavens and the earth with a foot in it.

Eighteen thousand years later, the heavens are extremely high and the earth is extremely thick, but there is no sun, moon or stars in the heavens and nothing on the earth, except for the heavens and the earth. Pangu felt that the world was desolate, so he decided to add all things to the world as a body, and one day, Pangu fell to the ground. The left eye turns into the sun, the right eye turns into the moon, the tears of the two eyes turn into stars, the beads of sweat turn into lakes, the blood turns into rivers, the hair turns into grasslands and forests, the gas turns into clouds, the sound turns into thunder, the teeth, bones, and bone marrow turn into mineral deposits, the head turns into Mount Tai, the feet turn into Mount Hua, the left arm turns into Hengshan, the right arm turns into Heng Mountain, and the abdomen turns into Songshan. From then on, there was the first world.

However, Pangu's Yuan Shen is divided into three changes to Qingqi and rises to become three Qing, which is for the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Daojun, and Taishang Laojun. The essence sank and turned into Nuwa Niangniang and Fuxi Emperor. Nuwa Niangniang and Emperor Fuxi are both human heads and snake bodies, and they are the first ancestors of people. As mentioned above, Pangu split the heavens and the earth, but there was no life between the heavens and the earth. Nuwa Niangniang created seventy kinds of creatures every day, and the earth began to come to life.

And between heaven and earth, there are only Nuwa and Fuxi brothers and sisters, who discuss and become husband and wife, but they feel ashamed. Nuwa Niangniang used loess to imitate herself and Fuxi to create men and women (author's note: Nuwa Niangniang originally created people for the imperial noble, and the number was very small. At the beginning of the journey between heaven and earth, and then hidden between Kunlun, Qilian, and Penglai, self-cultivation and self-cultivation, and soaring into immortals. However, the earth is vast, and the speed of creation is slow. Then the rattan sticks to the mud and waving and throwing, and the mud falls to the ground, that is, a human shape. And the person who fabricated the yellow mud was the later royal nobles, and the mud turned into people was the common people. Since then, the earth has been full of life. Nuwa Niangniang created a wedding ceremony and taught human beings to be their own matchmakers, so that human beings can create themselves and pass on their ancestry.

After that, there was the reproduction of human beings. Three emperors and five emperors revitalized China. And we will single one of the "Shun" emperors of the five emperors. Emperor Shun's surname is Yao, his name is Chonghua, and his name is Jun. Chonghua is the sixth grandson of Zhuan Xu, and has been a commoner since the fifth generation. Chonghua was persecuted by his parents and half-brother since he was a child, and he endured many hardships. However, he was humble and virtuous, so his prestige grew. Later, Yao was old and wanted to choose an heir, and the world unanimously recommended Shun, so Yao married his two daughters, Empress E and Nuying, to Shun, and let nine men serve Shun to observe his virtue; He also let Shun be in charge of the five classics, manage hundreds of officials, and be responsible for welcoming etiquette to observe his ability. All are governed, and Shun is ordered to take administrative affairs. After that, the world is peaceful and the people are happy. Later, he died in the wilderness of Cangwu on the way to the south and was buried in Jiuzhi Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River.

Emperor Shun Yao Chong Chinese Sun Chen Hugong "Concubine Man", with the ancestral fief as the clan. King Wu of Zhou married his eldest daughter Taiji to Concubine Man, prepared three ke, and enshrined Yu Shun. The establishment of Chen State in Zhuye, known as Chen Hugong in history, and later moved the capital to Wanqiu (Huaiyang), and the descendants took the country as their surname, that is, it became the origin of the surname Chen. There is a saying in China that "Chen's family is all over the world, and Huaiyang is his hometown". The surname Chen is the fifth largest surname in China, and there are more than 90 million descendants of the Chen family in the world. The descendants of Emperor Shun have a total of about 300 million people with his surname.

After the death of Chen Hugong, his son Chen Shengong succeeded to the throne. On the occasion of the ceremony, he made a vow: "The descendants of the Chen family, the world is Qingping, and the king is the minister, loyal to the country." Wars and strife will be peaceful, and the world will be peaceful. Literature can assist the country, martial arts can determine the country, and the people are loyal and filial. ”
