Chapter 651: Hidden Fog Mountain (2)
Wude has always said that it was formed in the Warring States Period, the so-called "Xuangong is the palace of the north, the north is black, and the five elements belong to water, so the ancients said that he was the emperor of Shuide, also known as Emperor Xuan", which obviously belongs to the descendants according to part of the prehistoric history according to the needs of the times at that time. Emperor Zhuan Xuan took Diqiu (now Puyang, Henan) as the capital, and Jumang as Muzheng, Beishou as Jinzheng, Zhurong as Huozheng, Xuanming as Shuizheng, and Julong as Tuzheng, collectively known as the five senses. After he ascended the throne, he strictly followed the policies of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor to make the society stable and peaceful.
The age of the existence of Zhuan is thousands of years different from the age of the formation of the five virtues, especially in the prehistoric history of ancient times, there is an extreme lack of written records, in this regard, the claims of Shui De and Emperor Xuan are doubtful. I have to regret that in the era when dragon bones were used as medicinal materials, there were countless unique keels that may involve prehistoric civilizations have been eaten by the ancestors, and the lost history may be difficult to recover.
At the same time as Zhuan, there was a tribal leader called Gonggong, who was in charge of water conservancy. Legend has it that he had a human head and a snake body, a head full of red hair, and his mount was two dragons. There are two notorious gods under the Gonggong: one is the nine-headed Xiangliu, who also has a human-faced snake body, a blue body, a cruel and greedy temperament, and takes pleasure in killing; The other is a long-term fierce and vicious floater, and he is also a guy who does a lot of evil.
It is said that Gonggong's surname is Jiang, and he is a descendant of Emperor Yan and the son of Zhu Rong. His tribe is in the northern part of Henan. He attached great importance to farming, especially water conservancy work, and invented the method of building embankments to store water. At that time, human beings were mainly engaged in agricultural production, and the use of water was crucial. Gonggong is another person who has made contributions to the development of agricultural production after Shennong.
Gonggong has a son named Houtu, who is also proficient in agriculture. In order to develop agricultural production and do a good job in water conservancy, they inspected the land situation of the tribe together, and found that in some places the terrain was too high, and it was very laborious to water the fields; In some places, the terrain is too low and prone to flooding. For these reasons, it is very unfavorable for agricultural production. Therefore, the Gonggong clan formulated a plan to transport the soil from the high part of the land to raise the high ground, believing that the height of the depression can expand the cultivated area, and the high land can be leveled, which is conducive to water conservancy and irrigation, and is of great benefit to the development of agricultural production.
The people of the Gonggong clan speak very nicely, but they are wicked and respectful on the surface, but in fact they are lawless. The head of the Gonggong clan is called Kang Hui, who was born with a fashionable body and red hair, iron arms and tendons, a height of more than one zhang, and infinite strength. Kang Hui is respectful on the surface but cunning in his heart, full of conspiracies, but he is temporarily forbearant because of Fuxi's great power and virtue. After Fuxi left, the people of China respected Nuwa, and Kang Hui was jealous and hated, relying on the high terrain of his fiefdom to endanger the Central Plains by a monstrous flood, causing an ocean between heaven and earth. Nuwa couldn't bear it anymore and decided to lead the gods to eradicate the co-workers.
The water god Gonggong is a descendant of Emperor Yan, and he has many contradictions with the Xuanyuan family. After the emperor practiced the throne, he gathered the disgruntled gods to oppose him. The rebellious gods elected the Gonggong as the leader of the alliance and formed an army.
When the emperor heard the change, he lit seventy-two beacon towers and summoned the princes of the Quartet to support quickly; While ordering the soldiers and horses guarding Gyeonggi, he personally took command and went to meet the battle.
A fierce battle unfolded, several back and forth, the emperor's subordinates killed more and more, the humanoid tiger-tailed Taifeng drove ten thousand auspicious lights from Heshan, the dragon head and the human body of Ji Meng rushed from Guangshan to the storm, and the arrogant insect with two honeycomb heads led the poisonous bee scorpion from Pingfeng Mountain; The co-workers killed fewer and fewer people, the neck of the cabinet was cut to only a layer of skin, the cloak was scattered, and a broken arm was not lost, and Wang Ziye's hands, feet, head, chest, abdomen, and even teeth were all cut off, and they scattered all to the ground.
The co-workers went to the foot of Buzhou Mountain in the northwest, and there were only thirteen horsemen left around them. Buzhou Mountain is strange and abrupt, standing up to the sky and blocking the way. This mountain is actually a giant pillar that holds up the sky. The co-workers let out an angry cry in despair, and desperately crashed towards Buzhou Mountain, but Buzhou Mountain was broken by him and collapsed.
Once the pillar of heaven was broken, the whole universe underwent a great change: the northwestern celestial dome lost its support and tilted downward, so that the sun, moon and stars tied to the northern zenith could no longer maintain their original positions. On the other hand, the huge rope hanging from the southeast corner of the earth was broken by violent vibrations, and the southeast earth collapsed, achieving the high terrain in the northwest and low in the southeast that we see today, and the scene of rivers flowing eastward and rivers returning to the sea.
In the end, the Gonggong clan was respected by the people. After the death of the Gonggong clan, people worshipped him as the water master, that is, the god of water conservancy. His son Houtu was also worshipped as the god of the land, and later when people swore that the earth was on the sky, it referred to him, which shows the respect they respected.
Legend has it that in the later years of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, Jiuli believed in witchcraft, admired ghosts and gods and abandoned personnel, everything was decided by divination, and everyone had someone to engage in divination as a witch history, and people no longer sincerely worshiped the heavens, nor were they at ease with agricultural production.
In order to solve this problem, he decided to reform the religion and personally worship the ancestors of heaven and earth with a pure heart and sincere respect, so as to set an example for all peoples. He also appointed Nan Zhengzhong to be in charge of worshipping the heavens in order to reconcile the gods. Bei Zhengli was appointed in charge of civil affairs to comfort the people, persuade the people to follow the laws of nature to engage in agricultural production, and encourage people to cultivate fields.
Legend has it that there is a yellow water monster in the southwest of Neihuang, which often spits yellow water to flood farmland and destroy houses. When he heard this, he decided to submit it. But the Yellow Water Monster has great magical powers, and the two fought fiercely for 9981 days without winning or losing. He went to heaven and begged Nuwa for help. Nuwa borrowed the Heavenly King's Sword and gave it to Zhuan Xuan and taught him how to use it. He defeated the Yellow Water Monster with the Sword of the Heavenly King. In order to benefit the world, he used the Heavenly King's Sword to turn Dashagang into a mountain; It was named Fuyu Mountain, and a river was drawn next to the mountain with a sword, and it was named the Nitrate River. Since then, there are mountains and rivers here, forests and abundant grain, and people have lived a good life.
He has a very high position in the hearts of the local people and is respected as the high prince. Legend has it that he punished the Yellow Water Monster during his lifetime, and after his death, he could still retreat to save the people. Legend has it that one day, Lord Gao appeared and turned into a white-haired old man, sitting on the steps of the Temple of King Gao with his eyes closed. Soon. It rained heavily, and the flood came rolling in, and the fields were ruined and the villages were flooded. The flood water flowed in front of the white-haired old man and stopped flowing forward, and out of the water came two monsters that were neither human nor beastly. With a wave of his hand, the white-haired old man obediently sank into the water, and then the flood slowly receded. A flood disaster was avoided in the area of Gaowang Temple.
After Kun's death, the body did not decay for three years, and then I don't know who it was, it is said that it was Zhu Rong, who dissected his body with a Wu knife, and then Yu came out, and Kun's body turned into a yellow dragon, and when he said Yellow Bear, he flew away. The so-called yellow bear is an extinct animal, similar to a bear, but with three legs, which is recorded in the Records of Sightings and Experiences. Dayu inherited his father's will, began to control the water, I don't know why, this time the water control was very successful, the Emperor not only did not make trouble from it, but also sent the great god Ying Long to help. This Ying Long is also a very famous dragon god, which is also recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, representing the meaning of the rain god. Legend has it that if you draw a dragon on the ground, you can attract rain. At this time, he helped Dayu dig the river and open the mountain, in the process of governance, Fuxi, Hebo also helped Dayu, and later became the most mysterious river Tuluo book on the Lingyun Continent, and the legend was also offered by the turtle at this time. Finally, relying on the combination of the two methods of dredging and containment, the flood was finally subdued, and the people supported Dayu, who had made great contributions to water control, as their king.
People don't know what is going on in the sky when there are clouds, rain, snow, thunder and lightning, and strong winds and fog on the ground. Many people asked Fu Xi, but he couldn't say a reason. Fu Xi always wanted to figure out these things, but after thinking about it, he couldn't come up with a clue.
One day, Fu Xi was fishing in the Cai River and caught a white turtle. He thought: How rare is the white turtle in the world! When the sky fell, the ancestor of the white turtle saved my brother and sister, and then I will never see him again. Could it be that this white turtle is a descendant of the ancestor of the white turtle? Well, I have to raise it. He dug a pit, poured water into it, put the white turtle in it, caught some small fish and shrimp and put them in the pit, and told the white turtle to eat. It's also strange that the white turtle is raised there, and the water in the pit is exceptionally clear. Every time Fu Xi went to feed it, it would come to Fu Xi and lie on the edge of the pit without moving.
Fu Xi sat on the edge of the pit and watched the white turtle think about the problems in the world. Looking at it, he saw that there were patterns on the white turtle cover, so he folded a straw stalk and compared the patterns on the white turtle cover on the ground. Painting, thinking, thinking, painting, painting ninety-nine eighty-one days, painting famous. He used a channel as yang, a broken road as yin, one yang and two yin, one yin and two yang, back and forth, drawing and drawing, and drew a gossip map. Later generations called the pit where Fuxi raised white turtles the white turtle pond, and the place where the gossip was painted was called the painting hexagram platform.
A long time ago, there was a deep pool in the mountains far to the west, and the people of Fangyuan lived on the water in the pool. One night, a strong wind blew and the trees collapsed. It turned out that a yellow dragon flew from elsewhere and burrowed into the deep pool. This yellow dragon is very evil, eating people and animals, causing the people in this area to be unable to live, and people flee to other places.
Renzu Fuxi was calculating the gossip at the gossip platform, pinching his fingers, and knowing that there was a yellow dragon doing evil in the west, and the people there had a catastrophe. He picked up the green dragon crutch and said "change", and the green dragon crutch turned into a green dragon. Fu Xi rode it to the west.
When Huang Long saw Qinglong, he pounced forward and bit it. The two dragons fought in the dark, and they fought for nine hundred and eighty-one days, and the green dragon was seriously injured.
Seeing that Qinglong was about to be defeated, Fu Xi drew a gossip on Qinglong with spit. Qinglong immediately increased his strength, and fought with Huanglong for seven or forty-nine days, and finally knocked Huanglong down. In order to prevent the Yellow Dragon from coming out again to harm the world, Fu Xi drew a gossip on the Yellow Dragon, turning the Yellow Dragon into a mountain, and the Green Dragon into a big bluestone, pressing it on the top of the mountain. Since then, Huanglong has never come out again.
