China people are actually descendants of snakes?
20 13, the lunar calendar has been one year. The year of Qiuci, commonly known as "year of the snake". When it comes to snakes, many people feel "bad" and even rename the "snake" in the zodiac as "little dragon". In fact, "snake" has a lofty position in the early belief culture of the Chinese nation. From Pangu, who created the world, to Nu Wa, who made people out of clay, to Yan Di and Huangdi, the legendary ancestors of China, in ancient history, our ancestors seemed to be inextricably linked with snakes. Humanistic legends and modern archaeology prove that the "descendants of the dragon" that we are proud of should be changed. The Chinese nation is really a "descendant of snakes"! Pan and Nu Wa, the ancestors of China's humanities, are both "snakes": Pangu's portrait is like a meeting of three sages, and there is a fairy story called "Pangu opened the world" in the Ming Wanli engraving, which is a household name. This myth says that Pangu, the god of China, created the universe. What does Pangu look like? According to Dong's Guang Ren Xu in Ming Dynasty, "King Pangu is the leading snake." From this sentence we can know that Pangu is a snake god. Pangu is too illusory. History books and legends don't say that he created China people, while China people were created by Nu Wa. This is called "making people unearthed". Therefore, Nu Wa is regarded as the great female human ancestor of the Chinese nation. What kind of god is Nu Wa? It turned out to be a "snake" picture: the saying that Nuwa painted Fuxi linen was unearthed in the Tang Dynasty and found in many ancient books in Xinjiang. Liezi Huangdi said that Nuwa was "snake face"; The Emperor's Century by Huangfu Mi in the Eastern Han Dynasty said that Nu Wa was a "snakehead". Three Kingdoms Cao Zhi's "Nu Wa Hua Fu" called Nu Wa a "snake". Is this description a human or a snake? Snakes, of course. The reason why there is a "human face" is that during the ancient snake worship period, the ancients personified it.
