Dayu led Boyi, Pythagorean, Jiuzhang and Shennongzi to get up early and be greedy to survey the Yellow River Gorge "ghosts and sorrows". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info wind and food camping, rain or shine. Within a few days, the river survey had been completed. Where to split, how much to split, where to chise, how much to chise, where to burn with fire, where to chisel with an axe, and where to transport the chiseled rock, have all been calculated.

In the end, it was designed to open three portals in this section of the canyon waterway. 1,080,000 quintals of stone were chiseled, and 800 underwater reefs were leveled. A thousand skilled craftsmen, plus Dayu and four heavenly generals, four generals, and four little brothers went into battle together, and it took three months to build.

At this time, the grain and grass and skilled craftsmen requisitioned by Changxin and Zhuhai to the vassal states on both sides of the strait also arrived one after another. Among the 1,000 skilled craftsmen were potters who burned pottery, stonemasons who chiseled and grinded, blacksmiths who struck iron, frogmen who could dive, woodcutters who chopped wood, and men who cooked rice. The camp was immediately lively. These skilled craftsmen come together. There are those who cut and rub their skills, those who show off their work, those who test their skills, those who talk about the world, and those who bow their heads and ponder.

Dayu was overjoyed when he saw it, and handed over the thousands of skilled craftsmen to Xuangong and Huang Ge respectively, and announced: "Start work early tomorrow morning." ”

After breakfast the next day, Xuan Gong and Huang Ge had already gathered all kinds of skilled craftsmen together, everyone held tools in their hands, and lined up in a majestic and high-spirited manner, and came to Dayu. Dayu said to more than 1,000 skilled craftsmen: "All skilled craftsmen are capable people on both sides of the Yellow River. It is an outstanding and outstanding talent, and today we have come together from all directions, which is to eradicate the 'ghost and sorrow' canyon that binds the throat of the Yellow River. You have a plan and a stunt to use your stunt to control the flood as soon as possible, so that you can return to your hometown to reunite with your family and live and work in peace and contentment. The crowd said in unison, "I would like to listen to Xia Bo's command." ”

Dayu waved his big hand and said: "Towards the 'ghost sorrow'." ”

More than 1,000 people heard the order, took a big stride, and set off together behind Dayu. The four heavenly generals rose into the air and alerted everywhere. The four little brothers walked beside Dayu, full of spirit and high morale. Eager.

Dayu led everyone to the bank of the river, just stood at the entrance of the canyon, and was about to send all the skilled craftsmen to split the mountain and drill the rock. I could only hear a thunderous voice in the air say, "Bah, where are you waiting, boy, coming here to make a lot of noise? Are you impatient? Hurry up and get out of here, and if you don't go away, I'm welcome." ”

This sound of interruption shook everyone's eardrums to a buzzing sound, and they shivered all over their bodies, and they all looked up at the sky together. But there was nothing to be seen in the sky overhead. When the four generals heard the shouting here, they were all taken aback, turned around together, showed their blades, and rushed over to the place where Dayu and everyone were standing. But except for Dayu leading everyone to stand on the ground, there was nothing in the sky, and he couldn't help but hesitate and hesitate.

Xuan Gong and Huang Ge made an appointment with the craftsmen. Boyi, Pythagorean, and Jiuzhang also approached Dayu closely, but Shennongzi heard the sound of shouting, and was so frightened that he slipped into the ground.

Dayu raised his head and asked in mid-air: "Who are you sacred? Why do you hide your head and tail and dare not show your true face? Are you afraid to see people?"

At this time, Shennongzi heard that there was no movement outside, and then he came out of the ground. Hearing Dayu's question, he picked up the conversation and asked, "Are you scared?"

Everyone listened to Shennongzai's questioning, which was purely child's talk, which was very ridiculous, and they couldn't help laughing together.

This immediately eased the atmosphere, and people's fears suddenly dissipated. The craftsmen who had wanted to run away before also stopped.

At this time, I only heard an angry voice in the air: "Wow, ah, ah, ah, I'm really angry." Shafts cannot be taught. Anyway, the old man will show his true face and give you insight to see if you are afraid or not, wow, ah, ah, ah, ah. ”

Everyone saw that a few clouds in the sky quickly flew overhead, and gathered together as they flew, and in an instant, a large black cloud gathered overhead, and then they saw the dark clouds split from the middle, revealing a huge god from the middle of the slit clouds.

This god-man wears a purple and gold crown, fish-scale armor, and a soapy robe. The height is up and down ten feet. The waistline is as thick as a thousand-year-old tree. A blue face, without a trace of blood, a pair of leopard eyes, with a round glare, a pair of sword eyebrows inserted obliquely into the sideburns, fiery red hair upside down, a handful of hair on the side of the ear, exposed outside the purple and gold crown. A fiery red sideburns swept the beard and beard, floating on the chest. The momentum is like a fierce tiger, the sound is like thunder, majestic, murderous, daunting, and chilling. The man of God laughed "ha, ha, ha, ha".

When the craftsmen saw it, they didn't feel trembling, and their legs trembled. Some covered their eyes with their hands, some held their heads, and some of the timid wanted to run but couldn't run, so they sat down on the ground.

Dayu looked at it carefully and felt familiar. Bo Yi also felt that he had met somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The man of God was on the side, "Ha, ha, ha, ha." He laughed and asked, "Little doll, do you recognize this god?"

Dayu suddenly remembered that when the teacher Hua Xiazi told him that the co-worker could not touch Zhou Mountain, he once personally described the appearance characteristics of the co-worker. It is in line with the man of God in front of him. So he asked in a tentative tone: "Isn't the Venerable God the co-worker who fought for the world with Emperor Zhuan back then, and was defeated and couldn't touch Zhou Mountain?"

This question made the god-man in mid-air gasp. He asked, "Little doll, who are you, and why do you recognize this god?"

Before Dayu could speak, Boyi hurriedly replied: "He is not a little doll, he is the minister of water control appointed by Emperor Yao, and his name is Dayu." ”

"Dayu?" asked Gonggong rhetorically. "So you are Dayu?"

Dayu replied: "That's right, I am Dayu." ”

Gonggong said: "Okay, Dayu, I didn't look for you, but you came to the door by yourself." ”

Dayu asked: "Is the god really a co-worker?"

The co-worker replied, "Then is it fake? I am the co-worker of the water god." ”

Dayu asked: "You fought with Emperor Zhuan back then, and after the defeat, you were angry and dissatisfied, didn't you not touch Zhou Mountain in a fit of anger? Why are you still alive today?"

Gonggong said: "The moment my head couldn't touch Zhou Mountain, I didn't immediately hit and die, but became a god on the ground." It's the water god you see working together. If it weren't for the immortals, how could they break the Heavenly Pillar?

Dayu said: "Then you are not cultivating immortals in Buzhou Mountain, why did you come to this Yellow River Gorge today?"

Gonggong said: "Earlier, the old man heard that you were leading a few little brothers to go to the lower reaches of the Yellow River to control the water, I thought that you little dolls would just go there and make a fuss for a while and then retreat, so they would run home to find their parents to be coquettish." Unexpectedly, not only did you persevere, but you also caused a big climate, and actually subdued the flood in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. He subdued Jiuhe one after another, and then came to the Huai River, defeated my little apprentice Wu Zhiqi, and ambushed the Huai River. It's me who swallowed my anger and endured it until now. I didn't go to look for you, but today you found the door by yourself, and went to the middle reaches of the Yellow River to make trouble. ”

Dayu said: "We are fighting the flood for the people of China, for the sake of the common people in the world, how do you say that we are 'making trouble'?"

Gonggong said: "The flood from heaven is the will of the heavenly immortals, it is the punishment of the emperor of heaven for mankind, it is irresistible, how can you group of little dolls fight against the gods?"

Dayu said: "The flood is raging in the world, and the lives are devastated, and you immortals stand by and turn a blind eye." But we humans ourselves can't help but fight against the Emperor of Heaven. The reason why human beings have developed to this day is that they have grown up in constant struggle against nature. ”

Gonggong stopped Dayu's words and said angrily: "Little doll, don't tell me those big truths, I also understand these big truths." ”

Bo Yi interjected and said, "Since you know these truths, why do you still come to stop us from controlling the water?"

Gonggong said: "What makes me angry is that since you are going to control the water, why don't you come and worship my water god Gonggong first? This is obviously looking down on me as a water god and not treating me as a water god. ”

Dayu said: "Before this, we really didn't know that Gonggong was the god of water, and please forgive me." ”

Gonggong said: "What's even more hateful is that when you went to the Huai River to control the water, you actually defeated my apprentice Wu Zhiqi, and locked him under the Huai River, so that he would never come out. ”

Dayu asked: "What? Could it be that the Huaihe Water Demon Witch Zhiqi is really your apprentice?"

Gonggong said: "That Wu Zhiqi child is very temperamental to me, I admire him, whether it is martial arts or water is very good. Although he has not entered my door, I have treated him as an apprentice. ”

Bo Yi said: "What kind of master and apprentice is that, it's just your wishful thinking." What does it matter to you whether we beat him or not?"

Gonggong said: "I really want to see what kind of person Dayu who can defeat my apprentice Wu Zhiqi?

Dayu said: "Since ancient times, there has been much help for the righteous, and little help for the unjust, and we have controlled the water to save the people of the world." In accordance with the will of heaven and the hearts of the people, even the heavenly immortals headed by the Queen Mother of the West came to help. However, the Huaihe River Water Demon Zhiqi claimed to be the water king of the Huai River, sending water everywhere, preying on the people, obstructing the water control, and failure was inevitable. The Queen Mother of the West remembered that although he had done all the bad things, but he had never eaten people, so the virtue of the good life of God asked me to spare his life, lock him under the Huai River, and let him repent and rehabilitate. ”

The co-worker said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, since you came to the door by yourself today, I want to see what is so good about you." ”

Dayu asked: "So which aspect does the god want to see?"

Gonggong said: "I am a respected senior, and I can't compete with you, a little doll, so as not to lose my identity." Today, I don't test your martial arts, and I don't test your literary talents, I will come up with a question, if you answer it and make me satisfied, it will prove that you do have real talent and eloquence, and I will let you go to control the water, otherwise, you will take your people and horses home. ”

Dayu said: "Okay." OK. If I can answer it, you will go back to your Buzhou Mountain, and if I can't answer it, I am willing to compete with you again. ”

"My question is, 'How do you think and evaluate coworkers?'"

After hearing this, Dayu pondered for a while and replied: "In my opinion, first of all, Gonggong is a hero, and at the same time, he is also an influential, respected, and popular leader of the princes. He competed with the ruling emperor of China for the world. First of all, it shows that the co-workers have the courage, and at the same time, they also have the capital to compete with the emperor. Imagine if you don't have the courage and great appeal, how can you get the support of so many princes and soldiers.

"Secondly, Gonggong is not only a hero, but also an ambitious hero. He has become a 'Bo Kyushu', but he is not satisfied yet, and he still wants to be the son of heaven in China. Ambitions are inflated. So he led the princes and princes under his jurisdiction, and all his troops competed with the emperor for the world, chasing the Central Plains, and finally committed suicide in defeat, and his head could not touch the mountain.

"Third, Gonggong is a hero who has failed. In the process of fighting with the emperor, Gonggong commanded the wind and clouds, called for wind and rain, and had outstanding martial arts, fully demonstrating the demeanor of a great hero. Gonggong and Emperor Yu competed, and they couldn't say who was right and who was wrong. As the saying goes, the Central Plains deer is chased by people all over the world. In the end, due to bad luck, he lost to Emperor Yu and lost the war. Committing suicide after defeat and not touching the mountain with his head is also a heroic feat.

"Buzhou Mountain was originally an optimus pillar, and it should be an indomitable and solid giant pillar, but it couldn't help but hit the head of the co-worker. Imagine if Gonggong is not a hero, how can there be such an earth-shattering touch. That's why I say that Gonggong is a hero, but a hero who has failed. ”

Dayu finished the last sentence, and Gonggong didn't say anything for a long time. After a while, he let out a sigh and said with emotion: "Alas, I didn't expect that hundreds of years after the old man ascended to the immortal, there was such a talented figure on the land of the Central Plains. There are talents and insights at the step, through the past and the present, and open up the future. From then on, the Chinese nation is about to open a new era. Alas, the old man is tired, it's time to rest. I'm going back to Buzhou Mountain, and I'm going to never be seen again. Let's let go and control the water. The date for the subjugation of the water supply will not be too far away. ”

After the co-worker finished speaking, he put away the statue, turned into a red cloud, and floated to the northwest.

Standing behind Dayu, the four generals, four little brothers, five hundred soldiers and more than a thousand skilled craftsmen witnessed everything that happened in front of them, and finally watched the co-workers go away. couldn't help but thunder with joy, cheering in unison: "Dayu, Dayu, Dayu". The sound echoed over the Yellow River Gorge for a long time.

After the cheers stopped, everyone looked at the flood in the Yellow River Gorge, and suddenly it receded, and the previous waves rolling and turbid waves crashing on the shore immediately disappeared, turning into a tamed river with calm and unsettling waves. The rocks are exposed, making it easy to excavate.

Dayu waved his hand, gave an order, and said "start work".

A thousand skilled craftsmen will run together to the goal of the major self. Some use steel chisels, some use crowbars, some chop with axes, and some burn with fires.

Look at Dayu again, where the most arduous, where it appears, where it is the most dangerous, where it appears, where there are difficulties.

Boyi, Pythagorean and Jiuzhang worked as constructors, supervising the quality, progress and depth of excavation everywhere. Shennongzi was not idle, he went to the mountains to pick a basket of herbs to heal bone wounds. After coming back and mashing it, he poured the boy's urine on it, and then made it into an ointment, put it in the medicine box, and brought it to the construction site. When he saw that some of the craftsmen were wounded, he applied ointment to their wounds. The wound was coated with his ointment and healed in the blink of an eye. Craftsmen all praised Shennongzi as "Little Shennong". Shennongzi regards the name "Little Shennong" as the best reward for himself. Running around on the construction site, I am more energetic.

During the day, the sound of chiseling stones on the water control site is endless, and at night, half of the sky is dyed red by the light of the burning fire.

After a month, the first pass of the "ghost sees" canyon has almost been dug out, and only the narrowest part of the canyon has not been chiseled. The working surface here is narrow, the craftsmen are not allowed to use it, the rock is hard, the chisel cannot be moved, and there is nowhere to put firewood and grass when burned, so it is left until the end.

Dayu spent a time here and decided to let the craftsmen withdraw and gnaw this hard bone by themselves.

Dayu is holding the mountain axe in his hand. Transporting the Yellow Emperor's Mixed Yuan Gong, he took Lingbo's steps to tread the waves, stepped on the water, and quickly approached the cliff. Taking a deep breath, he jumped to the top of the cliff, saw the spot, picked up the mountain opening axe, and slashed down with all his might. I could only hear a loud sound of the sky cracking on the cliff wall. "Click, la, la, la" shaved more than half of the cliff wall from top to bottom. The original narrow channel of the gorge was immediately widened a lot.

Dayu once again carried up the magic power, and jumped to the top of the cliff on the opposite side, saw the part of the axe, waved the mountain axe, and struggled to split, and there was a loud noise, and the cliff wall was also split down by more than half. The river has been widened a lot. Dayu finished splitting the two axes, collected his strength, and fell back to the ground, and there was a whine on the construction site. "Dayu, Dayu, Dayu"!

Boyi looked at the cliffs of the two mountains that had been split by Dayu just now, just like a portal at the mouth of the Yellow River Gorge. Then he said to Dayu: "Brother Dayu, you see how much it looks like a gateway on the Yellow River, you can give this portal a name!"

Dayu thought for a while and said: "The water god Gonggong used to block us from controlling the water here, and now the Gonggong has become a god, I think, let's call this place the 'God Gate', what do you think?"

Boyi, Pythagorean, Jiuzhang, and Shennongzi clapped their hands together and said, "Good, good, good, it's called Shenmen, it's called Shenmen." It's a magical and thrilling place that only the gods can cleave. Only the gods can get through. ”

The mouth of the Yellow River Gorge "ghost sees sorrow" by Dayu to control the water and split out of the "Sanmenxia", which is the god gate in the "Sanmenxia". More than 4,000 years have passed, and the axe marks of Dayu splitting the mountain on the cliff are still there.
