We call ourselves descendants of the Yellow Emperor, but why should we sacrifice to the fiend Chiyou before the Han Dynasty?
Besides Chiyou and Huangdi, there are all kinds of strange religious sacrifices among the people. Before the Han Dynasty, there were so many strange sacrifices, because before the Han Dynasty, China people's thoughts were scattered and not unified. The first reunification in the true sense of our country was the Qin Shihuang period, but in fact, the so-called reunification in this period was only the unity of material and foreign things. During this period, the Chinese people did not mean that the whole country was unified by Qin Shihuang of A Qin, and people all over the world lived and worked in peace and contentment.
You know, before Qin Shihuang, there were many vassal States all over the country. What is a vassal state? In fact, it is just a lot of small countries, just crowded together. What do we call it? Shang dynasty? 、? Zhou dynasty? In fact, they are only the most powerful of these small countries. To put it bluntly, before the Qin Dynasty, China's culture was not unified, and it may have crossed a national border, so the ideas of both sides were incompatible.
After the buffer of the Qin Dynasty's unification, it was in the Han Dynasty, and then China was truly unified and ideologically unified. So we can understand why people sacrificed Chiyou and other beliefs before the Han Dynasty.
