Time flies, summer goes to cold, year after year, Dayu is already six years old. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info His father, Kun, taught all the knowledge in his belly. Dayu is already full of poetry and books, and he has achieved something.

Kun admires his son very much. I often patted him on the shoulder and said, "Aren't you really the reincarnation of a god and came to be my son?"

This year is the 60th year of Di Yao. A day in spring. Dayu's father and son are discussing the flood in the world. At this time, someone from outside came to visit. The person who came was an official, followed by an entourage.

The man came in and asked, "Is this Chongbo's home?" Kun stood up and replied, "I am Kun, may I ask the official what is the matter with me?" The official hurriedly saluted. said: "I am Di Yao's messenger, from the imperial capital, at the call of Di Yao, please enter the capital, preside over the major affairs of water control." ”

When Kun was angry and resigned and went home, it was originally a negative move. When he returned home, he was not depressed and went into exile. Instead, he devoted himself to the study of water control, and was always ready to go out of the mountain again. To make contributions to the country, but also to realize the value of one's own life, to be famous for future generations.

The long-awaited day has finally arrived. It made Kun excited. He was afraid that he had misheard. He asked the messenger again: "I didn't understand what you just said, please repeat it." The envoy said: "Emperor Yao issued a summons to invite Chongbo to enter the capital to preside over the major affairs of water control. ”

Convinced that he had heard correctly, Kun calmed down and deliberately reserved himself. He said: "Since I resigned, I have lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, studied and taught my children, and did not ask about the world, and now I am just a mountain village man. I don't know where Di Yao heard about my false name, so he sent a messenger to find this place and summon me to control the water. How can I be virtuous, how can I be able to succeed in such a great task?"

When the envoy heard him say this, he hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Chongbo, don't say that. Da Situ, Da Si Nong and others all know that although Chongbo resigned and went home and lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, he did not forget to share his worries for the country and has been studying the knowledge of water control. Now, Di Yao and all the ministers are looking forward to Chongbo's return to the dynasty as soon as possible, show his skills, subdue the flood, and save the people of the world from the dire situation!"

Kun still said humbly: "The ministers around Di Yao are full of talents, and they have their own capable people to calm the flood. I really don't have the talent to control the water, and I can't bear the big responsibility, it's not that I shirk it, I'm really afraid of living up to Di Yao's high hopes. ”

The envoy said, "Chongbo said this, and I am really ashamed to wait for the ministers in the court. We wait for the king's fortune, but we cannot share the king's sorrows. In the past few decades, the flood has been raging, although Di Yao also appointed Kong Ren and other ministers to control the water, but the effect is very small, and there is a momentum of more and more governance. Now Di Yao, Da Situ, and Da Si Nong have visited Chongbo, who is specializing in the study of water control. If Chongbo does not go out of the mountains to control the waters, who else will he rely on? I hope that Chongbo will put the country first and save the people from fire and water. Please don't shirk anymore. With that, he bowed down to Kun.

Kun hurriedly held on. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He sighed and said, "Alas, this is all providence, and since this is the case, then I have to go." ”

The messenger rejoiced. said: "Chongbo was called and agreed to go out of the mountain, it is really the blessing of Emperor Yao and the blessing of all the people." Then he asked, "I wonder when Chongbo can make the trip?"

Kun has been waiting for this day for more than ten years. Moreover, the nature of the cang, which is an urgent child, replied, "I can leave tomorrow." The affairs of the people of the world are the top priority, and they cannot be delayed. ”

The envoy was overjoyed, and never expected that once Kun agreed to something, he would act so happily. What a crisp person, a decisive person. So he said: "Then Chongbo will prepare." We'll pick you up early tomorrow morning. "Let's go back to the museum.

Sent the messenger away. Kun returned to the inner room and told the girl what had just happened.

"I've heard your conversation. We live here in Xiqiang, the wind and rain are smooth, the grains are abundant, and we are far away from the flood. You study and teach your children at home. How happy we are to live happily as a family. What kind of flood do you have to go out to cure? Moreover, you have to endure all kinds of hardships and obstacles, such as eating and sleeping in the open air, and bathing in the wind and rain. If it is cured, it will naturally be meritorious, but if it is not cured, you will have to bear it and lose your reputation, so why bother to bear this risk?"

Kun said: "Don't I know the difficulties and dangers of this flood control and the great gains and losses in it? However, I am a man, and men must have responsibilities, and since I was born in this world, I cannot go back in vain, and I cannot leave a little fame." Besides, if I study and study for half my life, will I rot in my stomach and die of old age in the mountains and forests? I want to use my knowledge and knowledge to make contributions to the country and the nation. It is also used to realize the value of my life. ”

Kun's words are impassioned and irrefutable. After a pause, he continued: "As the saying goes, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband. Now, the world is flooded, Di Yao has used a few people to control the water, not only did not retreat, but the more he was treated, the more turbulent it became, Kong Ren and they didn't control it, it was because their knowledge was not enough, the method was wrong, my method was different from theirs, I will definitely succeed, you can rest assured!"

The reason why Kun is so sure of water control and so confident in speaking is because he does have the magic weapon of water control in his hands.

It was more than ten years ago, when Kun resigned and passed through Taibai Mountain on his way home and stayed overnight on the mountain. Kun was depressed and couldn't sleep at night, so he got up and watched the sky at night. In the middle of the night, I suddenly saw two meteors in the western sky streak across the sky and fall to the earth. Meteors twinkle and twinkle, one to the southeast, and one to the southwest. There was another fragment of something, fluttering, falling in front of his eyes. With a snap, it fell to the top of Taibai Mountain.

Kun hurriedly climbed to the top of the mountain, looked around, and saw a stone chip lying in the grass, touching it with his hand, and it was still a little hot. The stone chips such as the cangs cooled a little, and when I picked them up, it turned out to be a piece of jade, about a foot long and about three inches wide. Looking through the moonlight, there are words engraved on it. But it's tadpole astronomy, and I don't know a word. Kun knew that this was a book from heaven, so he hurriedly put it in his arms and studied it slowly when he returned home in the future.

After returning home. The jade slips are tightly hidden, and only when no one is around, they take them out and study them. The emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and with his ingenuity, he finally cracked the text on the book of heaven one day.

What is recorded in the Book of Heaven is that the treasure of the Emperor of Heaven, "Xiyang", is the only treasure to restrain the flood. It can multiply 10,000 times on its own, grab a handful of soil and lift it into the water, it can become an earthen embankment to block the flood, and the soil can continue to grow as the flood rises.

The Emperor of Heaven divided the "Xiyang" into two places and hid them on the earth, one in the south of Liangzhou, the lower reaches of the Minjiang River, and the mountain of Cuiping. The other is hidden in the south of Jingzhou, the sun of the mountains, and the shore of Xiangshui. for future use. May 5 every year, after noon, before the hour can be taken out.

This stealing the Emperor's "resting soil" and using the resting soil to intercept the flood is the secret of Kun's water control.

The female hip can't convince Kun to see it. So I came up with another solution. I instigated the kun to divinate a hexagram to see the good luck and evil, maybe the hexagram was not good, so the kun dispelled the idea of going out to control the water. She said to Kun: "When the ancients had a major event, they all divined a hexagram to determine the line, so you might as well also ask the ghosts and gods with a hexagram." ”

Kun said: "My mind has been decided, and I have already promised Di Yao's envoy in person, so won't I go if I am unlucky?"

Kun's mouth said this, but he still made a hexagram, and the hexagram he got was: "Unlucky, there is a beginning, there is no after." ”

The female hip was even more shocked when she saw it, and tried her best to dissuade her, but Kun's temper has always been stubborn, where can she listen to the dissuasion of the female hip, and then she lost her temper. said: "How can you be delayed by the words of ghosts and gods, don't say it anymore, you must leave tomorrow, go and help me pack my luggage." ”

The female hip knew that no matter how much persuasion she took, it wouldn't work. So I had to sigh and cry to collect the luggage for Kun.

At this time, Dayu walked up to Kun and asked, "Daddy, are you sure of going out to control the water this time?" Kun replied: "If I'm not sure, I dare to agree? Dayu asked again: "Can you tell me Daddy's method of water control?" Kun smiled and patted Dayu's shoulder and said, "I can't tell you yet, this is a secret." Now you need to keep it secret, and it won't work if you say it. You'll find out later. ”

Dayu wanted to know what his father's secret method was, but his father had always been strict, so he didn't dare to ask again.

Then Kun instructed Dayu again: "After I go out to control the water, you should listen to your mother's words at home, study hard, and when you grow up in a few years, go to the water treatment with me." Contribute to the country and the nation. ”

Dayu heard that when he grew up, he could go to control the water, and he was very happy. said: "Then I must eat more and grow up quickly, so that I can go with my father to cure the water." ”

Just finished breakfast the next day. Di Yao's messenger came to pick him up. Kun said a few more words to the girl, patted Dayu's little shoulder, and resolutely stepped out of the house, without looking back.

The female hip led Dayu to stand on the hillside, and watched the Kun go farther and farther away, until she could no longer see the shadow, and then went down the mountain and went home depressed.
