The great priest of the imperial court of Emperor Yao (ji). Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info (also known as Houji, is the ancestor of the Zhou Dynasty).

His original name was Wai. Later, he became a prince and was sealed in Jidi. That's why he changed his name to Ji, and after he became the Great Si Nong, his honorific name was Houji. Later generations worshipped him as the "god of grain". Together with the "shrine god" Houtu, it is collectively called the god of "shrine".

The fate of the abandonment after birth was bumpy, and he was abandoned by his mother three times.

The abandoned mother's name is Jiang Yan. It turned out that when Jiang Yan was still unmarried, one day in spring, Jiang Yan went to the shore of Weishui with the female companions in the village.

When she walked to the foot of Longpan Mountain, Jiang Yan found the footprints of an adult on the ground.

The footprint was more than a foot long and three feet wide, the size of a small boat. Just one big toe mark can hold several adult feet.

Jiang Yan was curious, so she stepped into the big toe mark with both feet and compared.

Who knows, as soon as Jiang Yan stepped into her feet, her whole heart shook like an electric shock. I was even more excited. Weak, drunk, unable to move for a long time. It was from this day that Jiang Yan became pregnant.

At that time, it was not uncommon to get pregnant before marriage. There are also those who have never married in their lives and have given birth to several children. However, Jiang Yan was pregnant because she had stepped on a big footprint, and she was always a little awkward in her heart. The mood is not good either. It always feels dishonorable.

Jiang Yan likes to grow grains, mushrooms and vegetables since she was a child, and is an expert in cultivating crops.

In Jiyuan, the crops planted by Jiang Yan are the most conspicuous. The ears of grain and wheat are thick and large. The pods of the bean are long, numerous and plump. The vegetables are fresh and fresh, and the melons and fruits are fragrant. People ask Jiang Yan for advice on farming methods and experience, and Jiang Yan is also willing to pass on her experience to the people, so people near and far love Jiang Yan.

After Jiang Yan became pregnant, she still worked on the grass field every day. Carrying water to water the garden, doing the most tiring work, doing the most strenuous labor, trying to knock out the fetus in the womb, but no matter how Jiang Yan tossed, the fetus was as stable as Mount Tai, and was not moved at all. Safe and sound.

The more this is the case, the more scared Jiang Yan becomes. She was afraid that the fetus in her womb would be a goblin, or an alien, or something else. In a word, Jiang Yan just doesn't want this child anyway.

Conceived in October and delivered in one day. Jiang Yan was pregnant for ten months, not only did she not kill the fetus in her womb, but the fetus grew day by day.

One day in winter, Jiang Yan gave birth to a baby boy. The baby didn't cry a word, and his two eyes were watery, round, very spiritual, and very endearing. But Jiang Yan didn't even look at it, so she asked her mother to throw the baby outside, and let the baby freeze to death or starve to death.

Jiang Yan's mother couldn't bear to lose her grandson. said to Jiang Yan: "It's not a goblin, it's not an anomaly, it's a boy, his eyes are smart, his body is strong, he doesn't cry, it's very cute, just stay." ”

But Jiang Yan said: "How can a baby be born without crying, if this child does not cry, it must be a bad omen, or a goblin." Throw it away before you lose sight of it. ”

Jiang Yan's mother was no better than her daughter, so she had to discard the baby with tears in her eyes. Right now, it's the cold winter of the ninth month, and it's icy and snowy outside, dripping into ice. If you want to throw a newborn baby outside, you have to freeze to death immediately.

Jiang Yan's mother couldn't bear it, so she wrapped the baby in a few layers of swaddling clothes, wrapped it tightly in a quilt, hugged it outside, and threw it into an alley not far from home.

After Jiang Yan's mother came back, she kept thinking about the baby she threw away yesterday, thinking that the weather was so cold, and the baby would be frozen to death in a short time. Early the next morning, as soon as it was dawn, Jiang Yan's mother couldn't help but go to the place where the baby was discarded to take a look.

Who knows, this look surprised her. It turned out that there were fifty or sixty sheep and a cow simmering the baby in the middle to keep the baby warm. The cow is breastfeeding the baby.

The baby was eating the cow's mother's milk, and her little face was flushed, and she didn't look cold. The surroundings were full of ordinary people who came to see the rarity. The crowd stood there pointing and talking. They all said that they had never seen such a strange scene.

When Jiang Yan's mother saw this situation, she thought to herself, the origin of this child is extraordinary, and God favors him like this, and he will not be idle in the future. So he walked into the crowd, separated the flock around the baby, and brought back the abandoned baby who was eating milk. Jiang Yan's mother hurriedly took the abandoned baby back to the house, and told Jiang Yan what she had seen.

But Jiang Yan just didn't believe it, saying that it was discarded too close yesterday. Today, if you want to abandon the baby a little farther, let's abandon it at the foot of the mountain outside the village. If the mother is reluctant, ask someone else to take it and throw it away.

So he begged an old man from a neighbor to throw it away. The neighbor took the baby in his arms, walked four or five miles, and abandoned it in a grove at the foot of Ji Mountain. Everyone thought in their hearts: this time this baby will not freeze to death, but will also be eaten by wild wolves.

After another night, Jiang Yan's mother was worried about the baby's life and death, and she couldn't sleep well all night. I got up as soon as it was dawn, and I was anxious to see what was going on.

She walked to the place where the baby had been discarded, and saw several wild wolves surrounding the baby. Jiang Yan's mother thought that the child must have been eaten by a wolf. But it's too far away, I can't see it really, and I don't give up.

So he went home and called a few adults, with wooden sticks in hand, and returned to the grove at the foot of Ji Mountain.

The men stepped forward with sticks in hand and drove away the wolves. When I got to the front, I saw that the abandoned baby was lying in swaddling clothes and was unharmed. The little face was still red, and the corners of the mouth were still stained with milk droplets. Only then did everyone understand that the wolves were surrounding the abandoned baby, warming the abandoned baby and breastfeeding the abandoned baby at the same time.

The crowd was amazed. It is said that the wolf pack to warm and breastfeed abandoned babies is an unprecedented thing. Unheard of, but this time I saw it with my own eyes. I think this baby must have a great origin, maybe it is the reincarnation of a god in heaven. Otherwise, how can you discard it twice and have a second bizarre thing happen?

Jiang Yan's mother happily returned home with the abandoned baby she had picked up. and everyone told Jiang Yan what he had seen again.

After Jiang Yan heard this, she also felt strange, when she looked at the baby, her little face was flushed, her eyes were smart, she was grinning, and she didn't cry. Not like a demon or a stranger, but as lovely as an angel.

Everyone persuaded Jiang Yan: "This baby is a blessed and fateful person." There must be a god who is secretly blessing. If it were an ordinary child, he would have froze to death, starved to death, or been eaten by wolves. Since this baby will not die if he is abandoned twice, he should not be discarded again, and he will definitely become a great person in the future.

Under the persuasion of everyone, Jiang Yan changed her mind slightly. "I'm going to try again." This time I threw him on the snow in front of the door, and gave him his swaddling clothes, naked, and if he did not die after two hours, I would leave him behind, and never give him up again. But this time I'm going to see him with my own eyes. lest my mother cheat. ”

So, someone removed the swaddling clothes for the baby, carried the baby outside, and put it on the snow in front of the door that Jiang Yan could see.

I just put the baby on the snow, and I didn't wait for the baby to cry. It's also strange to say that many big birds suddenly flew from the unknown person of "Hulala". Flying all over the world. All of them spread their wings, some of them were laid under the baby's body, and some were covered on the baby's body, dense layers, impervious to wind and rain.

Jiang Yan saw it really well in the room, and she couldn't help but believe it, it seems that this child is indeed from an extraordinary background, and there is really a god to protect him.

Everyone looked at the big birds with wide eyes, and counted the hours in their hearts. It was as if the abandoned baby had fallen asleep under the protection of a great bird. There was no sound at all.

Two hours have come. Suddenly, as if they had heard the password, the big birds flew up together again.

The naked baby, without the cover of the big bird, fell to the snow with its delicate flesh, and was frozen to the point of crying "wow-".

At this time, Jiang Yan's mother had already made preparations, ran quickly to the snow, picked up the baby, and put it into her arms. Ran back into the house.

Since then, Jiang Yan has changed her mind, and ******** has focused on raising this child, caring for and cultivating this child wholeheartedly.

Because the child was abandoned three times, he was named abandoned.

Abandon the natural intelligence, kindness, wisdom, and diligence. When he grew up, Jiang Yan taught him about cropping.

For the things of the crops, you will abandon a learning, and the blue is better than the blue, and you have a lot of development and achievements. People from near and far came to Jiyuan to learn the techniques of planting crops from Xiangqi.

The reputation of abandoning good farmers is growing. After Emperor Yao practiced the throne, he gave Jiyuan to abandon and let him become the princes of Jiyuan. Since then, it has been abandoned and renamed Ji.

After a period of time, Di Yao made Ji a big Si Nong again, and his lord was known as Houji. Responsible for educating the people of the world in farming.

This is the story of Houji's first birth and three abandonments.
