Chapter 450: The so-called Dongyi

After figuring out the situation and drinking a glass of water, the fat aunt took us to Wu Jinghan's grandfather's grave.

Not long after leaving the village, I saw several graves from a distance, and one of them was turned over with new soil, which was indeed the grave of Wu Jinghan's grandfather.

Wu Jinghan knelt down in front of the grave, and the fat aunt and I took out the prepared burning paper and tributes and put them on the table. Watching the burnt paper that had been ignited burn and then turned to ashes, I had an indescribable feeling in my heart.

"Grandpa doesn't recruit anyone or mess with anyone in his life, why is this!"

"Everyone has ...... these days"

The fat aunt hurriedly persuaded her, and I persuaded too.

"My grandfather is a poor old man, he is poor in front of him, and there will be nothing after death, what does this person want to do!"

I took Wu Jinghan's hand: "Don't be too sad! Didn't you just say that? This man's purpose is not to ...... money."

After the simple sacrifice, I pulled Wu Jinghan to walk back, and as soon as I arrived at the intersection, I heard the roar of a rushing car, and saw a few half-sized children running outside the village, and the fat aunt hurriedly stopped one: "Xiaobin!" What are you doing in such a hurry! ”

The half-sized boy in the blue tracksuit stopped and replied impatiently: "Fishing for the king!" Go and see the king of fishing! If you go late, you won't be able to see it! After speaking, he didn't wait for us to react, and ran around to the dam outside the village.

I stopped an old man again to figure out what was going on.

It turned out that there was a truck in the Yellow River, which quickly alarmed the local relevant departments, and I heard that the district water conservancy bureau was also coming, so my curiosity rose again, and I didn't enter the fat aunt's house, but turned around and went straight to the Yellow River.

Sure enough! A few cars were parked under the dam slope, and dozens of people were added to the riverbank.

When I hurried over, I saw seven or eight neighbors helping a few uniformed people, trying to "tidy" the truck-sized Wang Ba out of the big net.

I couldn't help but sigh again, where is this Wang Ba, it's simply a super monster in the Japanese cartoon "Ultraman".

As I watched, I subconsciously clasped my hands together – a habit that many people have – and unconsciously put my right hand on the little finger of my left hand. For a moment, it was like a flash of lightning in my brain, and my whole body trembled.

When you look at it, everything has changed.

I saw that the truck-sized Wang Ba had broken free from the net, the boat capsized, and the dozen or so people just now were all soaked in the water, struggling desperately, the turtle had a human leg in its mouth, and the turtle showed its thin fangs, and there was no need to ask, the upper body had been swallowed into its stomach.

There was a wailing on the shore, but everyone just shouted, and no one dared to come closer.

I was so shocked that I stepped back again and again, and my hands naturally let go.

With another spirit, everything in front of him changed again, and it actually returned to the previous scene, and those people were trying to get the king out of the net.

What's going on?

I rubbed my temples - was the scene a hallucination? It's weird......

It didn't mean anything to look at, Xiao Wang was still waiting at the edge of the village, so I pulled Wu Jinghan towards the village, who knew that before I walked up the hill, I heard a loud "boom" in the direction of the Yellow River, and when I turned around, I saw a huge splash in the river, and the truck-sized Wang Ba was gone, and the dozen or so people all fell into the water.

The cries and the sounds of help were connected.

I don't know what happened next, because before I could see what was going on, I received a call from Hao Minyuan.

Something's wrong!

Something big is wrong!

Just an hour after we left, Master Hai set up a formation, and it was a coincidence, and soon the bell rang, and Master Hai chased after him with a black compass, this time he was fully prepared, Zhang Lihai took a dozen people, holding the water taken from the Yellow River.

Their plan was to seize the spirit, then sprinkle the water on it, and force it to show its original form first, and then the black dog's blood and the black donkey's hooves waited, and according to Master Hai, after such a toss, the thing must be annihilated.

Who knew that the plan was only more than half smooth, and it really trapped the soul, but unfortunately the black dog blood and the black donkey's hooves did not work, which is very different from the Hong Kong film.

As a result, Master Hai bled to death on the spot, and his death was extremely miserable, Zhang Lihai was seriously injured, and several criminal policemen also took their lives.

Although the old glasses and a few of them were not injured, they were so shocked that they lost half their lives.

There was no way, Professor Han trembled and brought up the previous method again.

Hao Minyuan called me at this time.

The car is racing! Forty minutes to the Hekou District Police Station.

On the way, I remembered again about the hallucination I had just hadβ€”it was a hallucination, but it was too realistic!

As soon as I entered the city, I saw two police cars whizzing by, and I knew that something was wrong at a glance.

When I came to the police station and passed by the duty room, I casually asked the criminal police on duty: "What happened just now, so anxious!" ”

The criminal policeman on duty smiled bitterly: "This ...... I'm wondering about this, too! The informant said that Wang Ba killed several people and went to ...... Let's catch the king! ”

The meeting room was filled with smoke, Director Qin and Director Luo were holding cigarettes in their hands, and everyone had gloomy faces.

"Xiao Liu ......"

Hao Minyuan wanted to speak and stopped.

"We want you to use the divine power of She Zhijie to give it a try......" The old glasses took Hao Minyuan's words with a pale face and said in a low voice.

Thinking of my uncle, thinking of my experience these days, and thinking of the fact that one or two hundred people have died recently, my blood surged, and I nodded violently: "Okay!" I promise, what do I need to do? ”

"We have to think about this in the long run!" The old glasses' voice was a little choked.

Half an hour later, Director Qin, Director Luo, Hao Minyuan, and Old Glasses took me to Hao Minyuan's office.

"Little brother, this matter sounds a bit thunderous, and it should be even more thunderous to do, I planned it this way...... You use the power of the She's Ring to travel back 4,600 years and stop the Dongyi Clan's sacrificial activity. ”

I hurriedly waved my hand: "Wouldn't history change by doing this?" ”

The old glasses smiled bitterly: "History can never be changed, according to our analysis, if you can change the sacrifice back then, the resentment of the souls of the Chiyou twin brothers can be eliminated." "Slightly

"But when I traveled to four or five thousand years ago, it was the era of ignorance when people ate people, and I dared not find the Dongyi tribe by myself, let alone change that sacrifice."

The old glasses smiled bitterly again: "So we have also thought about it, so we need to let you make up for some historical and humanities knowledge first." ”

"Is it about the history of the Dongyi people?"

The old glasses nodded: "Most of them!" ”

Director Luo interjected, "We'll also equip you with weapons." As he spoke, he put a black backpack on the table, took out two delicate pistols and a few small boxes that he didn't know what he had put in, and finally took out two boxes of Durex.

When I saw the last two boxes of things, my face instantly turned red to the base of my ears.

"Several, you won't be worried, after I cross over, I'll mess around!"

Hao Minyuan smiled: "You kid, what nonsense!" This thing is also a must-have tool for wild adventures, and you forgot that time you went to the cracks under the Yellow River, you also used it! ”

That's right! My face turned even redder all of a sudden.

Next, a few old men sat around me and began to give me historical knowledge.

Generally speaking, the original inhabitants of Shandong are the Dongyi people.

Shandong is one of the earliest areas for the development of ancient civilization, since the Paleolithic Age, this area has been inhabited by ancient humans, creating an early human civilization.

The earliest ape-man fossil found in Shandong is the "Yiyuan ape-man" unearthed in Qizi'anshan, Yiyuan County, which has a history of four or five hundred thousand years.

A left lower molar of an ancient human has been found in Xintai Uzhutai, which is about 10,000 years old. In the Neolithic Age, the Dongyi civilization achieved greater development and formed a self-contained cultural development sequence, namely Beixin culture, Dawenkou culture, Longshan culture, and Yueshi culture.

This self-contained sequence of cultural development shows that the original inhabitants living in the ancient Shandong region were the inhabitants of the Dongyi ethnic group, and the ancient civilization they created became one of the main representatives of ancient Chinese civilization.

Regarding "Dongyi", "Shuowen Jie Zi" says: "Yi, the people of the East are also." From the big from the bow. The text of the paragraph remarked: "Dongyi is big, big, and people." There is a country where gentlemen are immortal. Judging from the glyph of the character "Yi", it is composed of "big" and "bow".

The word "big" is the positive image of the person, and the person bears the bow, indicating that the Dongyi people originally made a living by shooting and hunting, and had a martial custom and tradition. Therefore, "Shuo Wen Tong Xun Dingsheng" said: "Yi, the people of the East are also." Dongfang Yi people are warlike and hunting, so the word is from the big bow to know.

Big, people too. The Dongyi people are also known for their "benevolence" and virtue, which is related to the Zou culture that emphasized benevolence and virtue in this area in the future, which shows the far-reaching influence of Dongyi culture. The leaders of the ancient Dongyi tribe were Taihao, Shaohao and Chiyou.

Taihao is said to be the earliest leader of the Yi tribe in the Middle East, and now "Taihao" is also regarded as the oldest tribal group in Dongyi.

Shaohao is another leader of the ancient Dongyi tribe, and is also regarded as another sub-clan of the Dongyi tribe that emerged after the Taihao tribe. Shaohao also uses birds as totems, and probably has a lineage relationship with Taihao in terms of ethnic origin. The birthplace of the Shaohao people is in Qufu, and Qufu is known as "the void of Shaohao". The fiefs of the descendants of the Shaohao tribe such as Fei, Ju and Tan, in the area of Fei County, Ju County and Tancheng today, Lunan is the main activity area of the Shaohao people.

When it comes to the leader of the Dongyi clan, of course, the Emperor Chiyou is indispensable.

Chiyou is another important tribe of the Dongyi people. Chiyou was once a tribal group that dominated the world with its military strength, so the Eastern Han Dynasty scholar Ying Shao said: "Chiyou, the ancient son of heaven." ”

After Chiyou, the relationship between the Yanhuang Group and the Dongyi Group gradually eased, and a large tribal alliance was formed, which together created the original Chinese civilization.

At the time of Tang Yao and Yu Shun, the Dongyi and Yanhuang coexisted peacefully, and their leaders took turns to serve as the leaders of the tribal alliance at that time. Ruyao was of the Yanhuang tribe, and when he was the leader of the tribal alliance, he established his capital in Pingyang, which is in present-day Linfen, Shanxi Province. Yao Hou Shun was the leader of the tribal alliance.

Shun is a native of Jinan, Shandong, the river is on the verge of Dingtao, Shandong, and Lei Ze is in Heze, Shandong, all of which are in the current Shandong, so Mencius said: "Shun was born in Zhufeng, moved to Negative Xia, died in Mingtiao, and the people of Dongyi are also." ”

Xia Yu of the Yan Huang clan served as the leader of the tribal alliance. However, with the development of the productive forces at that time, surplus products gradually appeared, and the concept of private ownership gradually took shape. Xia Yu used his position and power to begin to seek benefits for his clan.

According to the principle of Yi and Xia taking turns in power, Xia Yu should have handed over power to Gaotao, the leader of the Dongyi tribe, after his death, but Gaotao died early. The Dongyi tribe also elected Boyi as the successor of Gaotao. However, Xia Yu secretly actively cultivated the power of his son Qi in order to pass on his son. After Xia Yu's death, Qi openly sabotaged the Yixia Alliance and seized power himself.

According to the "Bamboo Book Chronicle": "Yigan starts the throne and kills it." In other words, he took power and set a precedent for the hereditary system.

In ancient Chinese legends, the era of Yao Shunyu implemented the "Zen concession" system, that is, "selecting the virtuous and capable", and served as the leader. This is an ideal system invented by the Confucianists and Mohists in the future, and it is impossible to realize it in the reality of history, because the real democratic system should be the product of the advanced era of cultural development and the people's wisdom, and it cannot be implemented in the ancient era of ignorance, but it is possible for the tribal leaders to take turns to govern and hold power within the tribal alliance. This is also an important measure to maintain the Yi and Xia alliances.

After the Xia Emperor killed Boyi and established the Xia Dynasty, the alliance between the Dongyi and the Yanhuang was broken, and a new round of Yixia disputes began.

The Dongyi people have created a glorious ancient civilization, and their cultural contributions are not only seen in legends and historical records, but also confirmed and supported by archaeological discoveries. The famous Dawenkou culture and Longshan culture are the cultural relics of the Dongyi people. Combining these materials, the following inventions are mainly presented.

The bow and arrow were first invented by the Dongyi people. The invention of the bow and arrow is an important creation of ancient human beings, which has made a leap forward in the development of hunting economy and made qualitative progress in the process of human conquest of nature. Judging from the legend, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, The Classic of the Sea" says: "Young people are like babies, and they are bows and arrows." ”

In terms of the production of pottery, the Dongyi people were in the leading position at that time.

The pottery unearthed in the tombs of Dawenkou is extremely rich, most of the pottery in the early period is handmade, and the wheel system appears in the later period, and the quantity and quality of pottery have made great progress. There are exquisite painted pottery and smooth white pottery in the pottery, and the shape of the vessel has tripod, goblet-shaped cup, bean, pot, back pot, pot, basin, high-handled cup, plate, jar, bottle, zun, bowl, bowl, pottery drum and so on.

The most remarkable cultural achievement of Yongsan culture is black pottery. In the Longshan culture era (about 4500 years ago), the Dongyi people made a breakthrough in pottery-making technology, and they used more advanced wheel technology to produce some thin-tire black pottery.

This kind of black pottery has a thin wall like an eggshell, and has high strength, and is known as "eggshell pottery".

In addition to the use of natural clay, the Dongyi people also used kaolin as a raw material, and fired a small amount of pottery that was very white on the outside and inside, making the first attempt for the emergence of primitive porcelain. In view of the superb pottery level of the Dongyi people during the Longshan culture period, the Longshan culture was also called the "black pottery culture".

The Dongyi people also made significant contributions to the art of music and dance in ancient times. In ancient times, there was a legend of Taihao "burning the earth for Xun", and Xun is the oldest musical instrument in China.

The development of the Dongyi civilization was also manifested in the smelting and fabrication of metals, and they may have been the earliest inventors and users of copper and iron in ancient China. According to the excavation report of "Dawenkou": "A bone chisel with peacock green was found in Tomb No. 1 of the adult male and female joint burial tomb in the late Dawenkou period, which was tested by the Institute of Geology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and contained 9.9% copper, which proved that it was contaminated with copper. ”

As for the source of pollution, it is believed that it is copper tools, or it is considered to be copper-containing malachite, but it is an indisputable fact that the Dongyi people at that time had already understood or used copper and copper ore.

In the Longshan culture period, the use of bronze ware was more popular, and there were many places where bronze ware was unearthed, although most of them were small bronze objects, but they were in the leading position of invention. The invention and use of iron is also closely related to the Dongyi people. The earliest word for "iron" is "from Yi". "Shuowen" said: "Qiang, ancient iron, from Yi." ”

Yiren may be the inventor of iron. From the above, it can be seen that Dongyi people have made important contributions to the development of ancient Chinese metallurgical technology.

The fairly developed material civilization of the Dongyi nationality has created conditions for the development of its spiritual civilization and institutional culture, so the Dongyi nationality has walked in the forefront of the times in the creation of writing, the formation of the ritual system and religion.

The creation of writing is a product of ancient civilization at a certain stage of development, and is one of the important symbols of civilized society. The earliest writing was the creation of the Dongyi people.

The Dongyi people are the creators of the primitive ritual system. Etiquette is a form of system that embodies the hierarchy of social dignity and inferiority. Due to its economic development, the Dongyi people entered the stage of civilization earlier, and then the primitive ritual system was gradually formed. The primitive ritual system of the Dongyi people is mainly manifested in three aspects.

The first is the palace system. In Shandong, four ancient city sites of the Longshan culture period have been discovered, namely Chengziya in Zhangqiu, Bianxian King in Shouguang, Ding Gong in Zouping and Tianwang in Linzi. Judging from the excavation of the ancient city site, there are some signs of the palace system. The second is the burial system. In the tombs, the unequal relations of society have been demonstrated.

In ancient times, the Dongyi people have produced a primitive religious culture. For example, in the Dawenkou cultural site, the tortoise shell in the tomb is already a common burial object, which may have a certain religious meaning.

In the period of Longshan culture, the shoulder blades of cows, sheep and deer have been used as divination materials, but there are burns without drilling, and the attack and treatment methods are still relatively primitive. However, this method has a consistent relationship with the bone and turtle cloth of Yin Shang in the future.

The chapter "Guanzi Five Elements" once said: "The Yellow Emperor is especially clear in the way of heaven." It can be seen that the study of "Heavenly Dao" was also first popular in the Dongyi area. The study of "Heavenly Dao" is a mixture of primitive religion and primitive natural science, which also includes the study of the calendar, yin and yang, and gossip, which can be seen from the breadth and profundity of Dongyi civilization.

Several old men took turns talking, and in the end my head was bigger.
