Chapter 364: The Milky Way Falls for Nine Heavens (Ask for points to push and receive rewards)
The poet immortal Li Bai has a popular poem called "Wanglu Mountain Waterfall".
[Second] the sunshine incense burner produces purple smoke, and the waterfall hangs in front of the river. The flying stream went straight down to 3,000 feet, and it was suspected that the Milky Way had fallen for nine days.
[one of them] climb the incense burner peak in the west, and see the waterfall water in the south. The stream is 300 zhang and the gully is dozens of miles. Like lightning coming, looming like a white rainbow. At the beginning of the start, the river fell, and the clouds were half sprinkled. Looking up at the momentum, it is magnificent. The sea breeze is blowing, and the river and moon are still empty. The air is chaotic shooting, washing the green walls left and right; flying beads scatter light glow, and the foam boils the dome stone. And I am happy to be famous in the mountain, and I have to wash my face without rinsing the liquid. And I am willing to leave the world.
"Two Songs of Wanglu Mountain Waterfall" is two poems written by the great poet Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty, one of which is a five-character ancient poem, and the other is a seven-character quatrain. These two poems, are closely related to the title of the word "hope", with the incense burner peak of Lushan into the pen to describe the scene of Lushan waterfall, with the word "hanging" to highlight the waterfall such as a bead curtain hanging in the air, with a highly exaggerated artistic technique, the waterfall is drawn vividly, and then the specific scene of the waterfall is described in detail, the waterfall that flows straight down is described as majestic and strange, the weather is thousands, just like a vivid landscape painting. The first two sentences depict the magnificent scene of the Lushan Waterfall, which is both hazy and majestic; the last two sentences use exaggerated metaphors and romantic imagination to further describe the image and momentum of the waterfall, which can be described as a pearl of words.
However, few people now believe that a long, long time ago, people near Dong's house in Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County, saw with their own eyes the situation of "the Milky Way falling for nine days".
When the people near Dong's house in Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County, saw the "Milky Way Falling for Nine Days", it was the day of the Qiqiao Festival.
Qixi Festival, also known as the Qiqiao Festival, Qiqiao Festival or Qijie Festival. Originated in China, it is a traditional festival in Chinese areas and some East Asian countries influenced by Han culture, and is celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. From the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Since in the past, the fate of women could only be married to women, husbands and children, so many women believed in the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and hoped to take the Weaver Girl as an example. Therefore, every time the seventh sister is born, they will sacrifice to the seventh sister, praying that they can be clever and get a happy marriage. This is where the name "Qiqiao" comes from. Women also prepare thin needles made of brass (seven-hole needles) to thread the needles through the moon and the wind with five-colored threads. Over time, Tanabata has also become a "Daughter's Day".
Tanabata. Originally known as the Begging Festival. Tanabata beggars. This festival originated in the Han Dynasty, and Ge Hong's "Xijing Miscellaneous Records" of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has a record that "Han Cai women often wear seven-hole needles in the placket on the seventh day of July, and people are accustomed to it", which is the earliest record of begging that we have seen in ancient documents. "Tanabata" originated from people's worship of nature. Judging by the historical documents. At least three or four thousand years ago. With the understanding of astronomy and the birth of textile technology. There is a record of Altair and Vega. People worship the stars far more than Altair and Vega, they believe that there are seven stars representing directions in the east, west, north and south, collectively known as the Twenty-Eight Nakshatras. Among them, the Big Dipper is the brightest, which can be used to identify the direction at night. The first star of the Big Dipper is called Kuixing, also known as Kuishou. Later, with the imperial examination system, the champion was called "Da Kui Tian Corporal", and the scholars called Qixi "Kui Xing Festival", also known as "Book Festival", maintaining the traces of the earliest Qixi Festival from star worship. "Tanabata" also comes from the ancient people's worship of time. "Seven" is the same as "period", and the month and day are both "seven", giving people a sense of time. The ancient Chinese called the sun, the moon and the five planets of water, fire, wood, metal and earth "seven yao". The number seven is manifested in the folk in the time phase, and the "seven seven" is often the end when calculating the time, and the old Beijing often takes the "seven seven" as the completion when making a dojo for the dead. The current "week" is still preserved in Japanese. "Seven" is homophonic with "auspicious", and "seven-seven" has the meaning of double auspiciousness, which is an auspicious day. In Taiwan, July is known as the month of "Joy and Prosperity". Because the shape of the word "Xi" in cursive script resembles a continuous "seventy-seven", the seventy-seven years old is also called "Xishou".
Tracing the process of forming the Qixi Festival by the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, the time should be in the Warring States and the location should be in the Chu State. Bible study and classics, "The Book of Songs, Xiaoya, Dadong" has "The Weaver Girl, Seven Xiang all day long...... This is the earliest written record of the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and it is the prototype of the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. There is also a poem related to the Weaver Girl, "Zhou Nan Han Guang" states that "Han has a wandering girl, and it is impossible to think". According to historical records, the "Han" in the poem refers to the Han River, and also refers to the Tianhan (Milky Way), and the "Wandering Girl" refers to the goddess of the Han Water or the Vega Star God. Chu Renxiong is far away from the Jianghan region, and the "wandering girl of the Han Dynasty" is very important. In addition, in the folk of Chudi, morning glory is often confused with the three stars of the river drum. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Zong Yi, a native of Nanyang, annotated Wenyun: "Morning Glory, Jingzhou is called 'River Drum'". And in the Nanyang Han portrait stone "Cowherd and Weaver Girl Constellation", it is the river drum as the morning glory. Nanyang, which lives in the "north of the Han River", is known as "pillow barberry and pedal the river and Han, and take the three mountains and the lakes". During the Warring States Period, Nanyang belonged to Chu, and the capital of Chu was in Danyang, Xichuan, which was the birthplace of Chu culture and had profound cultural accumulation. Such a historical background and cultural heritage is one of the important conditions for the formation of the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
The people near Dong's house in Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County saw that the situation of "the Milky Way fell for nine days" was like this, and they saw a pillar of light that seemed to be light but not light, like water and not water, and the end point of the pillar of light was Dong's house in Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County.
In the eyes of mortals, above the void is the so-called Milky Way.
In this way, a pillar of light that looks like light, not light, water and not water descends from the void, which is "the Milky Way falls for nine days".
From above the void, a pillar of light that looks like light, not light, water, and water ends at the Dong family of Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County, yes, but it is not the Dong family of Yonglejiang Township, Benjiang County, Suxian County, all of them are shrouded in this pillar of light that looks like light, not light, like water, and not water.
The enveloping range of this pillar of light, which resembles light, not light, water, or water, is the place of a house.
The house that was shrouded in a pillar of light that came down from above the void that looked like light, not light, but water...... It is the room of Chen Ajiao, the concubine of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation Sun Dong Tianci.
This year, the eighteenth generation of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's grandson, Dong Tianci, was the year of the sixtieth year, and Chen Ajiao also became a twenty-four-year-old young woman.
Twenty-four years old is still the season of flowers for women.
However, because of the fact that a politician gives birth to one child a year, Chen Ajiao, the concubine of the eighteenth generation of Mr. Dong Zhongshu, looks older than the actual age.
However, although Chen Ajiao, the concubine of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation grandson Dong Tianci, has given birth to many children in a row, they are all losing money without exception. Losing money is a derogatory term for girls in the old days. Because when getting married, the mother's family should prepare a dowry, hence the name.
For the Qiqiao Festival, Chen Ajiao, the concubine of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation Sun Dong Tianci, also has expectations.
Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation grandson Dong Tianci's concubine Chen Ajiao is looking forward to bringing the son delivery lady over when she begs for a good time, so that she will have a son, and after having a son, her life will naturally change dramatically.
Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation grandson Dong Tianci's concubine Chen Ajiao clearly remembers that when she was pregnant with a child for the first time, Dong Tianci sent someone to take good care of her. That's because of the result of asking God for a hexagram...... He is a son who can pass on the lineage.
However, it was fate that played a joke on her.
Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation grandson Dong Tianci's concubine Chen Ajiao could feel that Dong Tianci's attitude towards her was gradually becoming colder. It's just that Dong Tianci still has expectations, so Dong Tianci couldn't say anything good to him at that time, but he couldn't say anything bad.
However, waiting, after Chen Ajiao, the concubine of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation grandson Dong Tianci, gave birth to three daughters in a row, Chen Ajiao found out that Dong Tianci's real coldness.
In the next few years, Chen Ajiao, the concubine of Mr. Dong Zhongshu's eighteenth generation Sun Dong Tianci, found that Dong Tianci only had rigid movements on his body, and that situation seemed to be purely for the task of sowing seeds. (To be continued......)
