Pangu:

Legend has it that before the creation of heaven and earth, the universe was as chaotic as a big egg. A giant named Pangu slept in this "big egg" for about 18000 years, and then he woke up and found it was dark around. Pangu opened his huge palm and split into the darkness. There was a loud noise, and the "big egg" was broken, stirring up chaos and darkness for thousands of years. Those light and clear things inside slowly rose and dispersed, turning into a blue sky. And those thick and muddy things, slowly falling, become the land under your feet. Pangu is very happy to stand between heaven and earth. Pangu was afraid that heaven and earth would be the same again, so he propped up the sky with his hands and stepped on the earth with his feet, making his body grow ten feet taller every day. As his body gets bigger and bigger, the sky grows 10 foot every day, and the earth grows 10 foot every day. After another 108,000 years, the sky is getting higher and higher, and the land is getting thicker and thicker. Pangu is nine Wan Li in length. Pangu finally opened the world with his own divine power. But Pangu was also exhausted. Before Pangu died, the breath in his mouth turned into clouds floating in the four seasons; The sound turned into thunder in the sky; His left eye turned into the sun and his right eye into the moon; Hair and beard become stars in the night sky; His body became four poles, east, west, north and south, and three majestic mountains and five mountains; Rivers of blood; Ribs become roads; Muscle becomes farmland; Teeth, bones and bone marrow have all become underground mineral deposits; Skin and hair become vegetation on the earth, and sweat becomes rain and dew. Legend has it that Pangu's soul became a man after his death. Therefore, man is the spirit of all things in the world.

Fu:

According to legend, his mother's name is Hua Xushi, and she is a very beautiful woman. One day, she went to Leize for an outing and found a big footprint on the road. Out of curiosity, she put her foot on the big footprint, and now she feels entangled in a snake, so she is pregnant. Surprisingly, this pregnancy has been 12 years. Then I gave birth to a baby with a head and a snake body. This is Fuxi. To commemorate the birth of Fuxi, the local people changed the place name to Ji Cheng, because in ancient times, people regarded twelve years as a century. According to historians, ancient Ji Cheng is today's Tianshui. Hanshu said: "Ji Cheng belongs to Hanyang County, and Hanyang County also belongs to Tianshui County. The place where the ancient emperor Fu was born. Therefore, Tianshui has always been called "the hometown of Huang Xi". According to legends and historical records, as the ancestor of human civilization, Fuxi's main achievements are as follows: First, he taught people to make nets for fishing and hunting, which greatly improved human productivity at that time. At the same time, teaching people to domesticate wild animals is the origin of domestic animals. Second, change the marriage custom, advocate the marriage custom etiquette that men hire women to marry, and change the consanguineous marriage to the marriage outside the family, ending the primitive group marriage state that children only know their father for a long time. Third, the original book contract is used to take notes, replacing the backward form of knotting notes in the past. Invent pottery, harp and other musical instruments, create music and ballads, bring music into people's lives, and help people "cultivate self-cultivation and rationality, and be innocent". Fifth, divide and rule its ruling areas, appoint officials to manage the society, and provide reference for future generations to manage the society. However, Fuxi's greatest achievement is to create gossip. In the west of Weinan Township, Maiji District of Tianshui (formerly known as Beidao District), there is a Guatai Mountain, which is said to be the place where Fuxi painted gossip. Legend has it that in the ancient times when Fuxi lived, people knew nothing about nature. When it rains, it is windy, lightning and thunder, and people are both afraid and confused. Fu, who is naturally intelligent, wants to make all this clear, so he often stands on Guatai Mountain, looking up at the sun, moon and stars in the sky, overlooking the surrounding terrain, and sometimes studying the footprints and patterns of birds and animals. One day, he came to Guatai Mountain again, thinking hard about the phenomenon he had observed for a long time. Suddenly, he heard a strange cry and saw a dragon horse jump out of the cave opposite Guatai Mountain. It is called a dragon horse because this animal has a dragon head with a strange pattern on it. The dragon horse jumped onto a big stone in the Weishui River at the foot of Guatai Mountain. This Tai Chi-like stone, combined with the design of the dragon horse, suddenly made Fuxi realize something, so he drew gossip. Later, the cave that jumped out of Longma was called Longma Cave, and the big stone in Weishui River was called distraction stone. Now go to Guatai Mountain, and you can still see these places. In addition, there are remains of stone troughs and stone beds in Malone Cave. As for the desirability of gossip, it lies in its profound cultural connotation. Fuxi culture characterized by it still attracts countless scholars at home and abroad to explore and study. Moreover, many contemporary disciplines are also deeply influenced by it and get inspiration from it. It is said that Leibniz, a great German mathematician, invented binary system, which was also inspired by gossip. It is possible that Mi, Dong, Bao, Fu, that is, the emperor, Huang and Tai Hao are all tribal leaders from Fu. They live in different times, but they have the same status, and they can all be called "Fuxi" (because they all come from Fu tribes).

Nu Wa:

Legend of mending the sky:

Gonggong and Nu Wa fought for the emperor, and Nu Wa ordered Zhu Rong's family to lead a crusade against Gonggong. The standard story is that a queen with a compound surname, Nuwa, ordered Zhu Rongshi to attack Gong Gong. Zhu Rong, also called normalization, is an ancient official position, and Gonggong is also an ancient water conservancy official position. Gong Gong's unfortunate father is also a normalized official. He is also Zhu Rong. As a result, the snake-headed goddess Nu Wa ran out to mend the sky. Gong Gong was defeated, and he was furious, and his head could not reach Zhoushan. No, Zhoushan is the pillar of indomitable spirit. It was hit by a worker and made an earth-shattering sound. Mountain collapse, Tianzhu fracture, the earth tilted to the southeast, and seawater poured into the land. Most people in the plain drowned, so the survivors had to flee to the mountains. But the mountain forest is the territory of mammals, who are very angry after being disturbed and launch crazy attacks on human beings. Many people were killed and eaten by wild animals. Human beings have suffered unprecedented disasters, some drowned by floods, some killed by collapsed rocks, some killed by wild animals and birds, and human beings are in danger of extinction. The Goddess of Mending Heaven is the most widely circulated myth in Sanjin. This myth comes from the Ming chapter of Huainan Zilan, and the full text is as follows: the four poles in ancient times were abolished, Kyushu was divided, the sky did not overlap, and the earth did not contain it; Fire never goes out, water never stops; Wild animals eat people, while birds prey on the old and the weak. So nuwa refined five-color stones to make up the sky, and the broken claws were enough to set up four poles, killing the black dragon and helping Jizhou, and accumulating reed ash to stop the lewd water. Tianbu, four poles are positive; Water is dry, Jizhou is flat; When a cunning worm dies, it destroys people's livelihood; Return to the state and embrace the sky. In the era of the great flood, the water god Gong Gong and the fire god Zhu Rong fought for some reason. In the end, Zhu Rong was defeated by Gonggong, and Gonggong, the water god, was ashamed and resentful because of the defeat, and crashed into the non-Zhoushan Mountain in the west. I didn't know that the non-Zhoushan Mountain was a pillar of the sky, and the pillar supporting heaven and earth was broken. The sky fell by half, a big hole appeared, and the ground was trapped into a big crack. The forest burned down. Mankind is facing an unprecedented disaster. Nu Wa witnessed such a strange disaster and felt very painful, so she decided to mend the sky to end it. She chose various colored stones, set them on fire and melted them into mud, filled the hole with this mud, and then cut off four feet of a chinemys reevesii as four pillars to support half the collapsed sky. Nu Wa also captured and killed the black dragon, which killed the people, and stopped the arrogance of the dragon and snake. Finally, in order to prevent flooding, Nuwa also collected a large number of reeds, burned them into ashes and buried them in the flood that spread everywhere. After some efforts and rectification by Nu Wa, the sky was finally filled up, the land was filled up, the water stopped, the dragons, snakes and beasts disappeared, and the people lived a happy life again. But after all, this catastrophic disaster left its mark. Since then, the sky is still tilted to the northwest, so the sun, moon and stars naturally return to the west, and because the ground is tilted to the southeast, all the rivers gather there. When the rainbow appears in the sky, it is the colorful light of our great Nuwa. After this disaster, there are few human survivors. In order to make mankind develop again, Nu Wa picked up clay figurines with loess and soil by hand.

There is also a legend about making people: folklore, at the beginning of heaven and earth, there was no human being on the earth, and it was Nu Wa who squeezed loess to make people. She is busy and tired, and despite her best efforts, she still can't keep up with the supply. So she picked up the rope and threw it into the mud. When she lifted the rope and threw it out, the mud fell to the ground and became a person. Later generations said that the rich were made of loess by Nu Wa, and the poor were just made of rope dipped in mud and scattered on the ground by Nu Wa.

Huangdi:

The Yellow Emperor and Yandi are considered as the ancestors of the Chinese nation, so China people sometimes call themselves "descendants of the Yellow Emperor". Legend has it that the first princess of the Yellow Emperor was Lei Zu, and the second princess belonged to Lei Fang, Tong Yu and Mo Mu. According to Historical Records, "Twenty-five sons of the Yellow Emperor, fourteen people have their surnames." The monarchs of Zhuan Xu, Di Ku, Tang Yao, Yu Shun and Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties are all descendants of the Yellow Emperor. Legend about the Yellow Emperor: It is said that he was born for dozens of days and can speak. 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 tyrannical, he annexed the princes. Emperor Yan, the world's co-owner who invented farming and medicine at that time, had declined. The chiefs attacked each other and the war was endless. Life is ruined. Emperor Yan 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 generals Hou Feng and Li Mu, the Yellow Emperor finally captured Chiyou and punished him. His ministers honored him as the son of heaven to replace Yan Di and become the co-owner 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 co-owner of the world, tried to regain his lost position, and finally rose up and resisted. Yandi and Huangdi clashed, and the decisive battle was held in the wild of Hanquan. After three fierce battles, the Yellow Emperor won. From then on, the position of the Yellow Emperor as the co-owner of the world was finally established, and he ruled the world. All disobedient tribes were proclaimed emperors. 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 common ancestor of the Chinese nation.

Other legends

Huangdi, surnamed Gongsun and named Xuanyuan (Zhou), was born in matriarchal clan society. Mother's name is attached treasure, uploaded according to history books; On the second day of the second lunar month, the Yellow Emperor gave birth to a bear (now Xinzheng, Henan). Sima Qian described the Yellow Emperor in Historical Records as follows: "Born as a god, weak but able to speak, young but unbiased, long and sensitive, and wise." It can be seen that the Yellow Emperor was not an ordinary person from birth to growth. /kloc-became the chief of Xuanyuan tribe at the age of 0/5 and became the emperor at the age of 37. The great contribution of Huangdi's life is that after 53 wars, he defeated Wan Yu and surrendered to Yan Di, thus killing Chiyou, ending the war, unifying three tribes, bidding farewell to barbarism, establishing the first country with a common owner in the world, and being elected as the first emperor of the Chinese nation. Human civilization began from now on. Therefore, all the people in the world later called Xuanyuan Huangdi "the ancestor of mankind" and "the ancestor of civilization". Last name is gongsun. For the ancient emperors. It's the bear's son's outpost. According to legend, Xuanyuan Huangdi's mother's name is Fu Bao. Legend has it that one night, Fu Bao saw an electric light around the Big Dipper. Immediately, the pivot star fell, and Fu Bao became pregnant through this induction. After 24 months of pregnancy, she gave birth to a child, the child is the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor became a perverted god as soon as he was born. Not long after birth, I can speak. At the age of 15, I have done everything. Later, he succeeded to the throne with the bear. Because he invented the mysterious face, he called it Xuanyuan. It is also called the Yellow Emperor because it takes Tude as the king and the soil color is yellow. According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor ascended the throne, there were 8 1 Chiyou brothers who claimed to be descendants of God. These 8 1 people are all animal faces, with copper heads and iron forehead, no grains, and only eat river stones. They disobeyed the orders of the Yellow Emperor, mutilated Li Shu and killed innocent people. He also made a big crossbow with a stick and a knife, which was an enemy of the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor obeyed the people's will, and gathered all the princes and soldiers to crusade against Chiyou. 15 Ten days later, I failed to defeat Chiyou and had to retreat. Therefore, the Yellow Emperor was worried, and he hoped that Tessa would help him destroy Chiyou day and night. One night, he dreamed that the wind blew away the dust in the world. Then I dreamed that a man was driving tens of thousands of sheep with a crossbow. After waking up, I felt very strange. Focus on meditation, wind and eyes; Soil is soil solution. Is there anyone named after Fengming in the world? The crossbow of the Millennium is the hope of driving thousands of sheep, and the shepherd is good. Can't there be a person named Li Ming Shepard? So he sent his people to visit these two people all over the world. As a result, after finding the wind in the corner of the sea, I found Limu in Zebian. The Yellow Emperor began to attack Chiyou on a large scale, taking the wind behind him as the phase and grazing as the general. In Zhuolu country, the two armies were at war. Chiyou laid a hundred miles of fog for three days and three nights, which made the soldiers confused. Huangdi ordered the wind to build a south guide car. At the same time, the Queen Mother of the West also sent Xuan Nv to teach him the tactics of Mia and tone-deaf. After the wind, the method of hiding armor evolved. In the evening, the war in Jizhou rekindled. Under the guidance of Chiyou, Chiyou invited Feng Bo, the rain god, and ordered Ying Long to store water to attack the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor invited all the women in the world to the east to shelter from the rain, while Li Qiangbing in the north corner drove Ying Long to the South Pole. In the end, Chiyou was killed, but Chiyou didn't die, so he was dismembered and buried everywhere, so that the body could not be collected. Later, after Shennong, Yugang and Huangdi competed for the world. The Yellow Emperor took the bird of the week and the trembling of the eagle as the flag, the bear, the black tiger and the leopard as the forerunner, and fought against Yugang in the wild of Banquan. After World War III, he defeated Yu Gang. Later, he personally led the military forces and conquered the princes who refused to take the big clothes. After World War 52, the world was unified. Therefore, the Yellow Emperor divided the country into wild areas and made rituals to entertain and educate the people. At the same time, various household appliances were invented. Among them, Minister Cao Hu made a coat, a coat and a pair of shoes. People no longer wear skins and bark. The Yellow Emperor also built a boat according to the principle that floating leaves float on the water, and walked with the boat on the water. According to the principle of turning over the canopy, the automobile assistance was invented, which facilitated the traffic. Yong Huang's father invented spring, and then the Yellow Emperor made a cauldron so that people could steam rice and cook porridge. Later, houses and cities were built so that people stopped building nests in caves. The Yellow Emperor also used Qi Bo as internal and external meridians, which cured the people's diseases. He also determined the names of everything in the world and divided the stars into 28 nights. Party A and Party B mark the day for ten days, the ugly son marks the moon for twelve days, and a son is sixty years. So there is the concept of time and space. According to the history books, people at that time "had the desire to eat, the beauty of clothes, the pleasure of vulgarity, and the right place to live." A scene of peace. One day, the Yellow Emperor was on the Luoshui River, enjoying the scenery with his ministers. Suddenly I saw a big bird holding a picture of Bian and putting it in front of him. The yellow emperor quickly bowed down. Look at this bird. It is shaped like a crane, the head of a chicken, the mouth of a swallow, the neck of a turtle, a dragon, parallel wings and the tail of a fish. The characters in the picture are virtuous, benevolent and benevolent. The Yellow Emperor had never seen this bird before, so he went to ask God for help. God told him that the male bird of this bird is called Phoenix, and the female bird is called Phoenix. It is called Chen Deng in the morning, Shangxiang in the daytime, Guichang in the evening and Changbao in the evening. When the phoenix comes out, it means that the world is at peace. This is a sign of good luck. Later, the Yellow Emperor dreamed that two dragons came out of the Yellow River and presented them with a white picture. Huang Di was puzzled and asked Tian Lao again. The old man replied that this was a precursor to the publication of the Book of Hutuluo. So the Yellow Emperor swam between Heluo and Tianlao, drowned in the river, killed three animals and fasted. It was foggy for three days at first. Then it rained heavily for seven days and nights. Then Huanglong came out of the river with a painting, and the Yellow Emperor knelt down and took it. I saw five colors on the picture, white with blue leaves and Zhu Wen, which is the book of Hutuluo. So the Yellow Emperor began to travel around the world and worship Mount Tai. He heard that there was a fairy named Guang in Kongtong Mountain, so he went to ask him for advice. Guang yue said, "since you rule the world, the clouds don't gather gas, but rain, and the plants are withered." The sun and the moon are competing for glory, and the shortage is getting worse. " Who are you to talk to me about enlightenment? "After the Yellow Emperor came back, he stopped asking about politics. Self-built a small house with a summer mat, and a person reflected in it for three months. Then ask around. At that time, Guangtou was lying facing south, and the Yellow Emperor knelt in front of him and asked him how to live forever. However, it is widely said that this question is a good question! " Then tell him the essence of the supreme Tao: "the essence of the supreme Tao, whispering, the supreme Tao, faint and silent." "Never mind, listen, keep silent. The shape will be self-correcting, quiet and clear; No makeup, no makeup, you can live forever. " I can't see anything, I can't hear anything and I don't know anything in my heart. Only in this way can I have eternal life. "Since then, widely sent him a roll of the natural classics. After the Yellow Emperor asked about Guang, he went to the mountain again, so he had to bring the "Dan Jing". Ask Xuan Nv and Motome for ways to keep in good health. Then, he returned to Jinyuntang to practice. He collected the bronze of the first mountain and cast Jiuding at the foot of Jingshan Mountain. As soon as the tripod was cast, a long bearded dragon floated down to welcome the Yellow Emperor into the fairyland. The Yellow Emperor immediately rode on the dragon and soared away. Several junior ministers also wanted to live forever with him, so they quickly caught the dragon beard. As a result, the dragon beard was broken and these little ministers fell to the ground again. It is said that those dragon whiskers changed the asparagus. Seven, the story of Huangdi and Leizu in Xuanyuan, Yancheng, Sichuan, Xuanyuan was originally a lame young man with knowledge and skill in the south. Wu Qibo, the god of Xiling, found a Guangxi man who was going to be an ally through divination, but the Xiling people thought he was a basket case and resolutely disagreed with his running for a new ally. Only Leizu took a fancy to his cleverness and became good friends with him. Later, the news from Xiling people thought that this talent was known by a certain family in the north, so they took him away while Xiling people were unprepared. Because of the inconvenience of legs and feet, the lame young man invented a car that thought he was a means of transportation. After the car was transformed into a chariot, the clan did not have to be afraid of the wild cavalry of other tribes after owning the cart, which made the tribe invincible and invincible, so it was promoted to the leader of the tribe and called Xuanyuan Huangdi. Xuanyuan Huangdi led the tribe to make great efforts to reform, change the warlike habits of nomadic people, advocate caring for the people and serving the country with benevolence, and it is not easy to fight. Only those tribes that hurt people and refused to obey the king were crusaded. So more than 80 tribes near and far are very obedient. After the Yellow Emperor won the world, he married Leizu, a virtuous and capable Xiling man. They traveled around the world and taught farming and mulberry, but Leizu died unfortunately on the way. Therefore, Lei Zu was regarded as the "first silkworm" and "Taoist God" by later generations.

Emperor Yan:

Yan Di and the Yellow Emperor are the ancestors of the Chinese nation. "Mandarin Today" contains: "In the past, the marriage was especially high when you were young, and you gave birth to the Yellow Emperor and Yan Di. Huangdi was from Jishui (now Xinzheng, Henan), and Yandi was from Jiang Shui (now Xinzheng, Henan). Merits are different, so the Yellow Emperor is discipline, not ginger. The two emperors used teachers to help each other, and the principle of virtue and difference was also. " This is the earliest historical record of the birthplace of Yanhuang in China. Therefore, they are two similar tribal leaders who originated from the Yellow River Basin in central Henan. Later, the two tribes fought for territory and launched the battle of Hanquan. Huangdi defeated Yandi, and the two tribes gradually merged into Huaxia nationality, which was called Han nationality after Han and Tang Dynasties. Yan Di and the Yellow Emperor are also the ancestors of China's culture and technology. It is said that they and their courtiers and descendants created almost all the important inventions in ancient times. The legendary tribal leader named Jiang in ancient times, also known as,, is located in the Weihe River basin of Shaanxi Province in the middle reaches of the Yellow River. Say Shennong (or Shennong's descendants). According to legend, her mother's name is Deng and she traveled to Huayang one day. Surrounded by dragons, she became pregnant and gave birth to Emperor Yan. Legend has it that Emperor Yan had a bull's head with horns on his head. Emperor Yan was born in a stone room in a mountain and grew up in Jiang Shui. He was virtuous and respected by fire, so he was named Emperor Yan. Emperor Yan is few and wise. He can talk for three days, walk for five days and understand crops for three years. He has done many good things for the people in his life: teaching people to farm and making them well fed; In order to protect people from getting sick, he tasted all kinds of medicinal materials, so that he was poisoned 70 times a day. He also made musical instruments to make people understand etiquette, which was praised by later generations. According to historical records and other ancient books, Emperor Yan's surname is "Yi Jian" and his name is Stone Mill. Mother is Gillian's daughter, named Japanese female Deng, a young princess. Give birth to Emperor Yan. Than long, it is called' Jiang'. According to the "Outline" and other records: "Emperor Yan ruled the world with fire virtue instead of Fuxi, whose vulgarity is more important than the end, rich but not contending, obedient to the people but not ordering, strong but not killing, frugal but not annoying, so it is from the toes in the south, to the secluded capital in the north, to the intestines valley in the east and to the three dangers in the west." "Yue Jue Shu" said: "In the past, Shennong ruled the world, and it has benefited, so I don't want to report it; Not greedy for the wealth of the world, but the common wealth of the world; Not because it is smart, it is expensive for others, but because the world respects it. " The legendary surname is Jiang. According to legend, he is a clan leader with a cow head and a sheep head, that is, the Qiang people now. At first, this clan was active in the Luoshui river basin and also in the Surabaya river basin (the lower reaches of the Yellow River). Later, it entered the middle reaches of the Yellow River and clashed with the Jiuli nationality for a long time. The leader of the Jiuli nationality is Chiyou, a beast with a human face and a beast's heart, a bronze head, an iron neck, horns on its head, hair on its ears as hard as a halberd, and capable of eating sand and stones. It may be a clan with some kind of beast as its totem. He has eighty-one brothers, that is, eighty-one clans, and he is a powerful clan tribe that is brave and good at fighting. Chiyou expelled Emperor Yan to Zhuolu (the land near the Sanggan River basin in northwest Hebei or the old muddy water in Gongyi, Henan). Emperor Yan asked the Yellow Emperor for help, and the two sides fought in Zhuolu. Chiyou invited the rain master in Fengbo to make trouble, and the soldiers got lost in the fog. The Yellow Emperor invited Nu Wa, the god of drought, to clean up the weather and built a "south guide car" to tell the direction. The result of this fierce battle was that Chiyou failed and was killed. The Yellow Emperor won the victory and was elected as the "son of heaven". Historians are increasingly supporting another view. Yan Di is a kind place like the Yellow Emperor. The Yan Di family lived in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for generations. In the later period, Shennong tribe was in charge of Yan Di, and Gongsun tribe of Huangdi rose to the west of Mount Tai. At this time, the Shennong tribe was unable to conquer the world, and the Yellow Emperor began to conquer the princes and accumulate strength. In Hanquan (near Mount Tai), Yan Di Shennong and Yan Di fought a decisive battle. Huangdi was able to order the princes of the world to exile Emperor Shennong in southern Chu, but the southern Chiyou tribe, which did not obey the orders of Huangdi, was originally a subordinate of Emperor Shennong, threatening to avenge Emperor Yandi, calling the people to fight against Huangdi, defeating him several times, and finally being defeated and killed by Huangdi with tricks. Later, the Yellow Emperor put down the rebellion of the rest of Chiyou to cultivate farmland, and finally unified the whole country, taking into account the reputation of Emperor Yan. Another way of saying it is that people lived in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for generations, and Shennong was in power in the later period. The last generation of Shennong was called He Ying's Chiyou and Jiang (the most popular surnames in the East, mostly gathered in Linzi, Shandong Province, and Jiang Ziya in the East China Sea was one of its descendants). At that time, the world was in chaos, and the princes rose together.

Yao:

Emperor Yao was born.

According to legend, the third wife of ancient Di Ku was named Du Qing, the daughter of Hou Yi. After Du Qing got married, she still kept her family. At the end of this spring, the old couple took a boat trip. Above the Sanjiang River, at noon, a strong wind suddenly blew, and a red cloud rolled up in the sky, forming a tornado on the ship, as if a red dragon was flying in this whirlwind. The old couple were frightened, but they looked as if nothing had happened to their daughter Du Qing and smiled at the red dragon. At night, the wind stopped the clouds and the red dragon disappeared. On the way back by boat the next day, there was a strong wind, and the red dragon appeared again, but it was smaller, about ten feet long. Because it didn't wreak havoc on people, the old couple were less afraid. At night, the old couple fell asleep, but Keqing couldn't sleep. She closed her eyes and couldn't help laughing. In the hazy sky, the evil wind merged, and the red dragon pounced on her, and she was confused. When I woke up, I still had an unpleasant saliva foam on my body, and there was a picture covered with saliva foam beside me, with a red portrait on it, with a pointed and plump face and long eyebrows, and the words: Blessed. She hid the photo, and after that, Du Qing got pregnant. She lives in Dan Ling. Fourteen months later, she gave birth to a son. Du Qing took out the pictures and texts left by Chilong, and saw that his son was exactly the same as the person painted. Di Ku is glad to hear that he has a son. Unexpectedly, his mother died just after his son was born. Di Ku is a dutiful son. He wept bitterly over his mother's death. How can he be happy? He has been in mourning for his mother for three years in a row, and he no longer cares about Du Qing and his son. Du Qing took his son to live in her mother's house and raised him until he was ten years old, so that he could return to his father. This child is the later Emperor Yao. Therefore, when Emperor Yao was a child, he took his grandfather's surname as his surname and was later called Tao.

Dayu:

During the reign of Emperor Yao, the Central Plains was flooded and the people were miserable. Gun was ordered to control water for nine years, and the flood was not flat. Shun traveled all over the world and found that Gun had made no achievements in controlling water with interception, and was finally executed in Yushan. Then he ordered Yu, the son of Gun, to take over the water control. After receiving the task, Yu immediately called troops to rescue with Iraq and Hou Ji. He inspected the river course, reviewed the reasons for the failure of Gun, decided to reform the water control method, changed interception into diversion, crossed the mountains and mountains by himself, waded across the river, held tools, measured the terrain from west to east, set a benchmark and planned the waterway. He led the migrant workers in charge of water conservancy throughout the country, cutting mountains on every mountain according to the benchmark, building dikes to prevent depressions, dredging waterways and leading floods into the sea. I tried my best to control water, not afraid of hard work, and never dared to rest. Shortly after their marriage, he left his wife and Tu Shanshi, whose female name was Nv Jiao, and set foot on the road of water control again. Later, when I passed by the door, I heard the voice of my wife giving birth to a child and the voice of my son falling to the ground. They all bit their teeth and did not enter the house. When he passed by for the third time, his son Zheng Qi was in his mother's arms. He can already call his father, waving his little hand and greeting Yu. I just waved to my wife and children to show that I saw it, but I still didn't stop. Yu San's staying at home is the best proof of his efforts to control water. I am also concerned about the sufferings of the people. On one occasion, Yu saw a man who was so poor that he sold his child and redeemed it. Seeing that some people had no food, he asked Hou Ji to share the only food with the people. I wore tattered clothes, ate humble meals and lived in a humble tent. I personally held it every day and took the lead in doing the most bitter and dirty work. After a few years, his legs and arms were depilated, his palms and soles were covered with thick calluses, his body was shriveled and his face was dark. After 13 years' efforts, they opened up countless mountains, dredged countless rivers and built countless dams, which made all the rivers in the world flow to the sea, and finally succeeded in controlling water and curing floods. The land just after the flood receded was too wet, so Yi Fa was asked to sow seeds for people and teach them to grow rice. In the process of water control, I traveled all over the world and knew all about the topography, customs and products. Yu re-planned the world as Kyushu, and formulated the tribute varieties of each state. Yu also stipulated that the place 500 miles away from the Imperial Capital was called Dianfu, another 500 miles away was called Houfu, another 500 miles away was called Suifu, another 500 miles away was called Huangfu, and the last 500 miles was called Huangfu. Dian, Hou and Sui wear different goods or services. Serve, not serve, only accept discipline and abide by laws and regulations. Waste clothes are managed according to their customs, and politics and religion in China and South Korea are not enforced. Because of Yu's success in harnessing the water, Shun Di gave Yu a jet laurel at a grand ceremony to commend his achievements, and announced his success and the great governance of the world to all people in the world. Soon, Yu was made a Bo, and Xia (now Wanxian County, Henan Province) was made a country. Yu's prestige in the world has reached its peak. Everyone praised and said, "if there were no spare time, we would have become fish and turtles." Emperor Shun praised Yu and said, "Yu, Yu! You are my arms, thighs, ears and eyes. I want to benefit the people, you help me. I want to observe the sky, know the sun, the moon, the stars and embroider clothes. You can inspire me. I want to hear six methods, five tones and eight tones to cure chaos and spread five virtues. You help me. You never denigrate me to my face or behind my back. You use your sincerity, virtue and example to make North Korea clean and innocent. You have carried forward my virtues and contributed too much! " In the thirty-third year of Shundi, he officially recommended Yu to Tiandi and gave him the throne. Seventeen years later, Shun died during his southern tour. Three years later, Yu took refuge in Yangcheng and gave the throne to Shun's son. All the princes in the world left to see Yu. With the support of the governors, Yu officially proclaimed himself emperor, making Anyi (now Xiaxian County, Shanxi Province) his capital, with the title of Xia. Danzhu enfeoffment system In the Tang Dynasty, the enfeoffment system merchants were in danger. Change the calendar day to Yin Jianyue as the first month. He also collected copper from all over the world and cast it into Jiuding as a symbol of the world's common master. When he became emperor, Yu worked harder for the welfare of the people, sincerely recruited scholars and listened to the opinions of the people extensively. Once, when he went out, he saw a sinner, got off the bus to meet him and began to cry. The waiter said, "Why do you feel sorry for a sinner who has done something bad?" Yu Di said, "When Yao Shun was in power, man and Yao Shun were one. Now that my heart is different, how can I not be sad? " Edie made some wine. After drinking it, Emperor Yu thought it was delicious. He gave Yidi an order to stop brewing, saying, "Some people will definitely die of wine in future generations." Shortly after Yu acceded to the throne, he was elected as his successor, with full authority to handle state affairs. After Hao Tao's unfortunate death, he elected Boyi as his successor to take charge of government affairs. Yu visited the south in the tenth year of his reign. When crossing the river, a yellow dragon swam over and arched the big boat, and everyone on board was very scared. The Jade Emperor looked up at the sky and sighed, "I am God's will." Live by the help of heaven, and return to heaven when you die. Why are you worried about this dragon? "Hearing this, the dragon shook its tail, lowered its head and disappeared. The Jade Emperor went to Tu Shan, where he met all the governors in the world, and tens of thousands of them presented themselves to the court. Yu Di died after fifteen years in office and was buried in Huiji (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang) at the age of one hundred.
