Legend of the Yellow Emperor Yan Di Chiyou

Xuanyuan clan of Huangdi

Huangdi is the title of Xuanyuan, the legendary ancient emperor. Gongsun was born in the hill of Xuanyuan, so he was called Xuanyuan. It is said that he was born a few days ago and can talk. He was alert as a teenager, honest and capable as a youth, and smart and decisive as an adult.

There is a bear in Jianguo (Xinzheng, Henan), also called Xiong Ke. When Chiyou was cruel and heartless, he annexed the princes. At that time, Yan Di Shennong, the main inventor of agriculture and medicine in the world, had declined. The chiefs attacked each other and the war was endless. Life is ruined. Shennong had no choice but to ask the Yellow Emperor for help. The Yellow Emperor resolutely assumed the responsibility of stabilizing the world. The Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought in Zhuolu, and the soldiers of both sides were brave and good at fighting. With the help of Li Mu, the Yellow Emperor finally caught Chiyou and punished him, and his ministers honored him as the son of heaven to replace Yan Di and become the master of the world. Because of its virtue, it is called the Yellow Emperor.

Soon, there was another riot in the world. Knowing that Chiyou's prestige was still there, the Yellow Emperor drew a statue of Chiyou and hung it everywhere. People all over the world think that Chiyou is not dead, but was surrendered by the Yellow Emperor, and more tribes came to join them. Later, Chiyou was honored as the God of War.

Although Emperor Yan was defeated by Chiyou, his strength still exists. He was dissatisfied with the fact that the Yellow Emperor became the master of the world, tried to regain his lost position, and finally rose up and rebelled. Yandi clashed with Huangdi, and the decisive battle was held in the wild of Hanquan. After three fierce battles, the Yellow Emperor won. Since then, the Yellow Emperor's position as the master of the world has finally been established. As the son of heaven, he ordered the world to crack down on any disobedient tribe.

The Yellow Emperor was in power for a long time, with strong national strength, political stability and cultural progress. There are many inventions and productions, such as words, music, calendars, palaces, boats, clothes and compasses. According to legend, Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang Dou are his descendants, so the Yellow Emperor is regarded as the same ancestor of the Chinese nation.

The Yellow Emperor has four concubines and ten concubines. Zheng Fei, Lei Zu of Xiling, personally planted mulberry and raised silkworms, taught people to spin, and was called "the best silkworm in the world". The second princess is Fang, a famous daughter. Once again, Princess is Tong Yu's surname. The last princess, Mo Mu, was ugly, but virtuous and respected by the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor has twenty-five sons, fourteen of whom have surnames. These fourteen people got twelve surnames, namely: "Ji, You, Qi, Ji, Teng, Sui (the grass flower is salty under the head, pronounced as" true "), Ren, Xun, Nuo, Yi (pronounced as" Xuan ") and Yi.

Every nation has its own legendary era, and the Yellow Emperor is the representative of China's legendary era. People concentrated on him all kinds of advantages and many creations of the ancients. He led the development of Chinese civilization from barbarism to civilization, so he was regarded as the ancestor of mankind. According to the New Chapter of Twenty-five History, the Yellow Emperor may be a real person and the leader of the tribal alliance in the Central Plains during the patriarchal clan system. Through the war, he United the tribes in the Central Plains and did many good deeds, which played an important role in the oral history of the ancients.

Pangu, the creator of the world.

How the universe originated is a mystery that human beings have been exploring. Long ago, there were myths and legends about Pangu's creation. According to legend, heaven and earth were originally a dark and chaotic substance, like a big egg. Pangu was conceived in the middle. 18000 years later, suddenly there was a loud noise and the big egg cracked. Some heavy and turbid things gradually go underground, while light and clear things gradually rise and become the sky. The chaotic world was divided by Pangu. He held the sky in his hand and landed on the ground. The sky is ten feet high and the earth is ten feet thick. Pangu's body grows ten feet a day. In this way, another 18,000 years passed, and Pangu's body grew to the height of nine Wan Li, standing like a huge pillar in the middle of heaven and earth, making it impossible for heaven and earth to close again, and it was no longer dark and chaotic. But Pangu was also very tired and finally fell down and died. Before Pangu died, strange changes took place in heaven and earth. His voice turned into thunderous thunder, his breath into clouds, his left eye into the sun, his right eye into the moon, his body and limbs into the four poles and five mountains of the earth, his blood into rivers, lakes and seas, his muscles into roads, his beard and hair into stars in the sky, his skin and hair into flowers and trees, his teeth and bones into shiny metals, hard stones and circles. All kinds of parasites that grow on him are nourished by sunshine and rain, and become dawn people on the earth. In this way, after the creation of the world, Pangu gave birth to everything in the world with his whole body. There is a legend about Pangu's divine power. He cried? The tears of time have turned into rivers, and the flashes of eyes have turned into lightning. Say that when he is happy, it is sunny; When you are angry, the sky is gloomy. He also said that it was daytime when he opened his eyes, and it was night when he closed his eyes. Pangu, who created the world, is revered by people. In some ethnic groups in southwest China, there are also various rituals and myths that worship Pangu. Legend has it that there is an 800-mile-long tomb in the South China Sea to bury his soul. Nu Wa, refine the stone to make up the sky.

In ancient China mythology, there was a goddess who nourished everything and benefited mankind. This is Nuwa. It is said that after the opening of heaven and earth, although there are mountains, rivers, lakes, flowers, birds and animals on the earth, there are no traces of human beings. The great goddess Nu Wa wanted to create a new life, so she grabbed the loess on the ground and kneaded it into the shape of a villain, imitating her own shape reflected in the water. As soon as these clay figurines were put on the ground, they were alive and kicking, and Nu Wa named them "people". In this way, she made up many men and women with yellow mud. But the speed of pinching people by hand is too slow after all, so Nu Wa picked up a straw rope and stirred the muddy yellow mud to the ground. As a result, the place where the mud splashed down became a lively person. So there are traces of human activities everywhere on the earth. Nuwa also paired men and women and asked them to have their own offspring, which were passed down from generation to generation. In mythology, Nu Wa is not only the original mother who created human beings, but also the earliest god of marriage. Later, for some reason, the universe suddenly changed a lot, holding up half the sky. When it collapsed, a terrible black hole was exposed and a huge crack appeared on the ground. A blazing fire broke out on the mountain and a flood gushed out underground. All kinds of beasts, bad birds and strange pythons have rushed out to harm mankind. Seeing that mankind suffered such a tragic disaster, Nu Wa tried her best to remedy the heavens and the earth. First, she selected many colorful stones in the river, melted them into paste, and then mended the holes in the sky one by one. He killed another chinemys reevesii, cut off its limbs and feet, and stood on the four sides of the earth to support the sky. Then he killed the black dragon to drive away all kinds of evil birds and beasts, and blocked the cross-flow flood with reed ash. Since then, the disaster has subsided, mankind has been saved, and the world is thriving. In order to make people live a happier life, Nu Wa also made a musical instrument called Sheng Chun, which people can enjoy after work. Nu Wa is a mythical figure born in matriarchal clan society. This myth reflects the naive understanding of human origin and natural phenomena at that time. Up to now, the myths and legends of Nu Wa are still circulating among the Miao and Dong people in southwest China, and they worship her as the ancestor of their own nation. Kuafu, the hero of chasing the sun, "Kuafu chasing the sun" is a myth in ancient China. It embodies the spirit of primitive ancestors in pursuing light. Kuafu, a tall man, is determined to catch up with the sun and make an earth-shattering career. Kuafu has two yellow snakes hanging from his ears, two yellow snakes in his hand and a walking stick. One day, the sun rose, and he strode after the sun until he reached Yugu. Legend has it that Yugur is a place where the sun rests. After the sun sets and takes a bath here, it will rest on the huge wood and rise again the next day. At this moment, I saw a huge red fireball in front of me. Kuafu has entered the light wheel of the sun, completely surrounded by light. He felt very thirsty when he celebrated his victory. So he bent down and gulped down the water from the Yellow River and the Weihe River, and drank up the water from the two rivers in a few times, but he was still thirsty. He ran to the north again, wanting to drink water from osawa. Osawa is a water body with thousands of miles. But Kuafu died before reaching his destination, and fell down like a mountain. Where the crutches fell, a peach forest with lush foliage and heavy fruits appeared. According to legend, there is a Kuafu in the southeast of Lingbao County at the junction of Henan and Shaanxi, which is a relic left by Kuafu. On the back of the mountain, there is a peach forest hundreds of miles wide. It is also said that there is a Kuafu in Hunan, with three huge stones on which Kuafu built a pot. Broken Tianzhu worker

Why do the sun, the moon and the stars rise and set in the west? Why do all rivers flow eastward? Legend has it that the water god * * * broke Tianzhu and * * * became a symbol of justice. After Nu Wa repaired Tianyu, the sun, moon and stars operated normally for a long time. But then a war disrupted this situation. The warring sides are water gods, who work together with heaven and earth. * * * is the son of Vulcan Zhu Rong. He has a human face, a snake body and red hair. * * * Workers are in charge of seven tenths of the world, such as oceans, rivers and lakes, rivers and swamps. In the war between Huangdi and Yandi, the worker used water to help his ancestors fight Yandi. The great-grandson of the Yellow Emperor once made him a theocracy. But when he was in charge of theocracy, he didn't care about the dawn of the world, and sent people to cut off the passage between the world and heaven and oppress the dissatisfied gods. What is even more unreasonable is that. He tied the sun, moon and stars to the northern sky and fixed them there. In this way, some places on the earth are always bright, and some places are always dark, which brings disaster to people. The water god * * * took the opportunity to lead his men to attack, rose to overthrow the rule and seized the throne of the Emperor of Heaven. The war was fierce, and they fell from the sky and hit the foot of a mountain called Buzhoushan. Buzhou Mountain is located in the northwest, with a strange and abrupt shape, and it is a very high supporting Tianzhu. The two sides kept fighting. When the workers saw that they couldn't win at the moment, they immediately became furious and slammed the island. It's just that they heard a loud noise and broke the island in an instant. At this time, great changes have taken place in the whole universe. The sky in the northwest leans downward because there is no support from the hills. The sun, the moon and the stars are fixed in one place again, and they all run involuntarily towards the sloping western sky, so day and night exchange once a day. The land in the southeast was violently shaken and sunk by the landslide, which formed the terrain of China, which was high in the west and low in the east, and the water of the river flowed to the east involuntarily. Xingtian, its ambition is always there.

Xingtian is a famous mythical hero. He fought against the Emperor of Heaven and was beheaded after his defeat, but he still didn't stop fighting. The Yellow Emperor defeated Emperor Yan with powerful force and seized the throne of the central emperor, and Emperor Yan was forced to retreat to the south. However, Emperor Yan's men were unwilling to fail, and Xingtian vowed to compete with the Yellow Emperor for the throne. Holding a shield in his left hand and an axe in his right hand, he launched a fierce battle with the Emperor of Heaven. They came all the way to Changyang Mountain, and the Yellow Emperor took the opportunity to cut off Xingtian's neck with a sword, and Xingtian's huge head was cut off. Xingtian was furious when he saw that his head had been cut off. He did not show weakness, two nipples as eyes, navel as mouth, waving weapons and continuing to shout. Although Xingtian failed, he was indomitable and his heroic spirit of fighting to the end was often praised by later generations. Tao Yuanming, a great poet in the Jin Dynasty, once praised the beheaded hero with the poem "Dancing with the fields, with unfulfilled aspirations". Jingwei who fills the sea with stones

Jingwei Reclamation is the ancient people's desire to praise kindness and harmony? #92; Fairy tales that don't give up the spirit. According to legend, the little daughter of Yan Di, the sun god, went to the East China Sea to play, but she fell into the sea and drowned. After her death, her soul became a bird, called "Jingwei", with a flower head, a white mouth and red feet, lively and lovely. She was destroyed by the relentless waves of sadness and hatred, thinking that others might take away her young life, so she kept picking up branches and stones from the western hills and throwing them into the sea, trying to fill it. She kept flying between the Western Hills and the East China Sea. Jingwei's perseverance, good wishes and grand ambitions are all respected by people. Tao Yuanming, a poet in the Jin Dynasty, wrote in his poem: "Jingwei holds Xiao Mu and will fill the sea." He warmly praised the solemn and stirring fighting spirit of Jingwei Bird who dared to fight against the sea. Later generations often use "jingwei reclamation" as a metaphor for the arduous cause of people with lofty ideals and benevolence. A human-god with a bronze head and an iron forehead

Chiyou is a mythical figure with unusual courage. He has 8 1 (or 72) brothers, all of whom are iron heads. He has sharp horns on his head and sword-like hair on his ears. He eats sand iron, is good at making all kinds of sharp weapons and has great power. A great war broke out between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou. Chiyou mobilized his brother and the strange god between the southern tribe and the mountain forest Shui Ze to kill the Zhuolu where the Yellow Emperor was located; The Yellow Emperor mobilized ghosts and gods, all kinds of wild animals and some tribes in the Central Plains to fight. The battle was extremely fierce, and Chiyou was changeable, and it was raining, and the Yellow Emperor's army was surrounded by fog. It was not until the servants of the Yellow Emperor made a guide car behind the wind that the troops of the Yellow Emperor rushed out of the fog. The Yellow Emperor invited Ying Long in an attempt to drown the enemy with heavy rain. Chiyou also invited Fengbo and Rain Master to blow a more violent storm, which made the troops of the Yellow Emperor flee everywhere. The yellow emperor also told his daughter to go to war late, and the rainstorm disappeared at once. Ying Long and others waited for an opportunity to get rid of him, which made Chiyou very depressed. Did the Yellow Emperor use animals again? Make drums out of skin and Thor's bones? . The drums are earth-shattering and can be heard 500 miles away. The Chiyou army was driven out of her wits. The Yellow Emperor also arranged an array change, surrounded the Chiyou army, and Chiyou was defeated and captured. Chiyou was killed by Zhuolu, and the shackles on his hands and feet were thrown out, turning into a bright red maple forest, which was Chiyou's blood. He also said that he was killed and beheaded in the middle of Yizhou, so he was called "Xie", which was later Xie County in Shanxi. Fuxi who invented gossip

Legend has it that Fuxi's mother is Hua? Stone lives in the far northwest. Once, she happened to see the footprints of a giant on the edge of a swamp. She felt very strange and tried it with her own feet. Who knows that when I stepped on it, my body suddenly felt a strange feeling. Later, I got pregnant and gave birth to Fuxi. Fuxi has a head and a shot. He has great power since he was a child and can go up and down freely along the towering trees. When he grew up, he became the emperor of the East. Fuxi is a wise emperor and a great cultural ancestor. He knows astronomy above and geography below, and is familiar with the natural laws of everything on earth. He invented gossip and taught people to record everything with these symbols. He also followed the example of spiders, weaving ropes into nets and asking people to fish and hunt. Sheri hero village

Yi is an archer. Even if a bird flies by, it can shoot down with one arrow. Legend has it that during the reign of Emperor Yao, ten suns appeared in the sky at the same time, which brought severe drought to mankind. The land was baked to smoke, all the seedlings withered, and even copper, iron and sand were soft and almost melted. People are even more uncomfortable, and blood seems to be boiling in the body cavity. Strange birds and animals come out of the fiery forests and boiling rivers and lakes to hurt the people and make them more miserable. When the Emperor of Heaven knew this, he sent Yi to the mortal world to save the people. The Emperor of Heaven gave Yi a red bow and ten white arrows. Yi Fengtian's orders came down to earth and was welcomed by the people. So he posed, bent his bow and arrow, aimed at the fireball in the sky, and shot an arrow with a whoosh. There was no sound at first, but after a while, I saw filariasis flying in the sky and the fireball burst silently. Then, a shiny thing fell to the ground. People hurried to see it. It turned out to be a three-legged crow, golden in color and huge in size, probably the embodiment of the soul of the sun. Look at the sky again, the sun is gone, and the air seems to be colder. People can't help cheering in unison. This encouraged Yi, who, regardless of other things, shot arrows again and again, only to see fireballs exploding in the sky one by one, and the sky was full of filariasis. Standing on the earthen altar watching archery, Yao suddenly thought that there could be no sun on earth, and hurriedly ordered someone to secretly draw an arrow from Iraq's quiver. Finally, there is only one sun left. After shooting down nine suns, it is easy for people to get rid of many strange birds and animals. Among them are man-eaters, chisels, nine babies, strong winds that destroy houses, snakes that make waves in caves, and wild boars. . Chang 'e is in the wrong moon palace.

Chang 'e was originally a goddess in the sky. Because her husband was ordered by God to kill evil spirits on earth, she followed him to earth. Yi was away from home all day, shooting nine suns for the people, killing exotic birds and animals, and neglecting to take care of his home. Chang 'e gradually became dissatisfied with him. One day, Yi asked the Queen Mother of the West for an elixir of life. Two people eating this elixir together can live forever, and one person eating it alone can ascend to heaven. Yi took the medicine home and gave it to Chang 'e, asking her to take good care of it. She wants to choose an auspicious day for them to have dinner together. However, Chang 'e felt that she had suffered a lot since she came to the world with her husband. Since the elixir has the magical effect of ascending to heaven, why not be immune to it? One night, Chang 'e took advantage of Iraq's absence to pour out the elixir in the gourd and swallow it in one gulp. Suddenly, she lost weight and involuntarily floated out of the window into the sky. As she flew, she thought that if she went to Tianfu, the gods would laugh at her selfishness. Besides, it is not easy to meet her husband. Might as well hide in the moon palace for a while. Who knows that when Chang 'e arrived at the Moon Palace, her spine kept shortening, but her waist and abdomen swelled desperately, and finally she became an ugly toad. Therefore, in many ancient poems, the moon is called "the moon". Later, there was another legend that she was still a beautiful fairy instead of a toad. It's just that she is lonely in the moon palace, and only a white rabbit and a osmanthus tree accompany her all the year round. Later, another WU GANG was punished as a slave by the Emperor of Heaven. He kept cutting down the laurel tree, but the laurel tree followed suit, and he would never rest. Dayu, a water conservancy and disaster relief worker.

In ancient times, floods were terrible, and Wang Yang was everywhere. People have no place to live. Some people look for caves to hide, others write birds in trees to make nests. Animals and birds have to compete with poor humans for territory and food. Appointed by the Emperor of Heaven, Dayu took his assistant Ying Long to save mankind and control floods. Yuxian led the gods of the world to drive away the water god who made waves. Then let a big black turtle carry the rest of the soil on his back and follow himself. This fallow soil is a sacred soil. As long as it is placed on the ground, it will continue to grow and pile up into mountains. I used it to fill the abyss along the way. Ying Long also led the way, paddling water on the ground with his tail. Let people dig a river where their tails cross and lead the flood to rivers and seas. When he arrived at Tongbai Mountain, Yu managed to subdue the monster without support. Qi without support is shaped like an ape, but it is more powerful than nine elephants. It jumps around all day and is silent for a while, which makes this place always windy and thunderous. Yu took a big iron lock, locked Wu's neck and pressed it under Guishan. Because he is busy with water conservancy, he has no leisure. He passed the door three times and didn't go in. After many hardships, Yu finally cured the flood, but there were other disasters. There is a monster with nine heads and a snake body called Xiang Liu. He was insatiable and ate nine mountains at a time. If you touch him anywhere, he will immediately become a Shui Ze, endangering the people. Yu killed Xiangguo Liu with his divine power. At this time, the world was peaceful, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and Yu became the son of heaven. The local officials in Kyushu sent a large amount of copper, and asked craftsmen to cast nine treasure tripod. The tripod is engraved with images of poisonous insects, animals and monsters, which makes people beware of these things in advance. People felt the kindness of Yu, so they called Baoding, and later regarded it as a synonym for ward off evil spirits.

I devoted my whole life to seeking happiness and peace for mankind and was admired by generations. In order to commemorate his achievements, a towering Dayu Temple was built in the southern suburbs of Shaoxing, Zhejiang.
