Names of regional and local governments in pre-Qin period. Mainly in today's Sichuan. Pakistan in the east and Shu in the west. According to Huayang Guozhi, the nationalities in Bashu area in the pre-Qin period were Pu, Yi, Ju, Gong, Slave, Liao, Yi, Pan, Yunnan, Liao and Bo, and most of them were Bai Puzhi. A large number of unearthed cultural relics show that Bashu culture is another national culture different from the Central Plains. Especially its exquisite bronzes have local characteristics in modeling and decoration, but they are also influenced by the culture of the Central Plains. On the weapons and ancient seals belonging to the Warring States period, two kinds of characters that are different from Chinese characters and have not been interpreted so far have also been found. Archaeological findings also show that Shu entered the class society as early as the Yin and Zhou Dynasties. Legend has it that the earliest king of Shu was Can Cong, and The First Ji Shu recorded that "Can Cong began to live in Minshan Stone Room". Minshan Mountain is located in Aba Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. "Huayang Guozhi" also said: "Can Cong's eyes drooped and he died as a sarcophagus, and the Chinese people followed, so he used to use the sarcophagus as his grave." After Can Cong, the famous king was Du Yu named Wang Di. Its capital is located in the fertile soil of Longyi (now 20 kilometers northwest of Chengdu, Sichuan) and Qu (now south of Chengdu, Sichuan 10 kilometers). He "taught people to farm ... and Pakistan changed to farming. So far (Jin Dynasty), Bashu people have sacrificed Du Yunong first. Later, Master Roshi of Jing nationality went back to the river to find the emperor. When there was a flood in Shu, Master Roshi decided that Leiyushan would eliminate the flood disaster and reduce the water potential from the river, which was the pioneer of water control in Shu. After seeing the emperor, he is a turtle spirit and an enlightened emperor. The enlightened dynasty began around 666 BC, with Chengdu as its capital. Since then, Shu has become stronger and stronger. He once attacked Qin to its capital Yong (now Fengxiang South, Shaanxi Province), then took Nanzheng, and invaded Chuzhizifang (now Songzi, Hubei Province) in the east, "according to the land of Bashu", and the public grew up in Bashu. After the struggle between Pakistan and Shu, King Hui of Qin sent Sima Cuo and Zhang Yi to destroy Shu in 3 16 BC. In the legend of Pakistan, the story of Yanwu five families in Yishui (now Qingjiang, Hubei) is the most famous (see Man). Lin Jun didn't sink in the mud boat, but shot Salt god. After his death, his soul became a white tiger. Therefore, people have the custom of worshipping tigers with others. During the Warring States Period, Hejian was destroyed by the State of Chu, who established a witch county in Bati. According to legend, at the end of Yin Dynasty, Ba and Shu both took part in the war. Ba people have the famous "Bayu Dance" and "Song and Dance Touching People". After the King of Wu conferred the title of Zongji in Bazhong, he was the son of the Lord, and probably founded his country in the middle reaches of the Han River. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Ba had contacts with neighboring countries such as Qiang, Deng, Shen and Chu, and had a marriage relationship with Chu. However, it was later annexed by Chu State and became Hanzhong County of Chu State. At that time, there was a kind of bitter orange in Fuling area of eastern Chongqing, which was destroyed by Chu at the end of the Warring States Period. After the Qin dynasty destroyed Shu, it also destroyed the Ba in Jiangzhou (now Chongqing). Later, he took a large piece of land from the State of Chu and established Ba County. Qin destroyed Bashu, which prepared the conditions for further destroying Chu and unifying the six countries. 2. A seaport city in southwest Thailand, the capital of Bashu prefecture. Located in the northern Malay Peninsula and the west bank of the Gulf of Thailand. Population: 8482( 1980). In ancient times, there was a checkpoint called "Controlling the River", which was later renamed. Agricultural products trading center. Tainan railway and highway run through the city. According to the historical data of tea before the Six Dynasties, the tea industry in China originated from Bashu. Geography of Hanshu said: "Ba, Shu and Guanghan belong to Nanyi, and Qin is a county." Bashu has a wide range. Besides Ba people and Shu people, there are many other ethnic minorities, such as Pu, Ju, * *, Nu and so on. Ba people and Shu people are just two big families with wide distribution and large population. Generally speaking, these ethnic groups remained in the primitive clan stage in Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and only in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, under the influence of the Central Plains culture, did they move from primitive to civilized. However, from the perspective of the Central Plains, these ethnic groups or regions still belong to "southern barbarians". After Qin unified and established the county, Bashu belonged to China. A beginner in the Qing Dynasty said in the Record of the Days: "Tea drinking began after the Qin people took Shu." It is pointed out that tea drinking in various places spread slowly after Qin annexed Ba and Shu. In other words, the tea culture in China and even the world was first developed in Bashu. Gu's conclusion has unified all kinds of views on the origin of tea affairs in China, and it has been accepted by most scholars now. Therefore, it is often said that "Bashu is the cradle of tea industry and tea culture in China". The so-called view that Bashu tea drinking "started in the Warring States" essentially determines the historical value of the legend of Shennong in ancient times, and holds that only reliable written records can be trusted. In fact, Bashu tea industry began in the Warring States period, and it is also based on Gu's theory, and there is no other direct written record. Prehistoric collection of agriculture, medicine and farming axes. Shennong, who invented many things, may not really have a person or a thing. But he is recognized as an image created by later generations to commemorate the great inventions of prehistoric times. The above-mentioned things related to him refer to the inventions of primitive times and should be based on certain historical facts. Generally speaking, before archaeological excavations, the legends in ancient books, such as "cultivating pottery by gods", "opening mountains and thunder, teaching people to practice" and "tasting herbs before taking medicine", were also unconfirmed. Therefore, as a representative of a specific prehistoric stage, Shennong "developed" agriculture, medicine, pottery and even drinking tea in this era, which should be credible. Drinking tea is a kind of material enjoyment, and people are used to linking drinking tea with civilization, so when it comes to the habit of drinking tea, it is often thought that it appeared after entering the class society. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. In clan society, it is common to use some parts of plants as drinks. The ethnographic data of the Oroqen nationality show that before 1949, the Oroqen nationality living in Daxing 'anling was still in the primitive clan society stage. At that time, they had the habit of "using the leaves of Qin Huang and Jagada as beverage bubbles". The Oroqen people can use the local Qin Huang and Jagdaye as drinks, so why can't the Ba people, Shu people and other tea-tree peoples in southern China invent tea as drinks in prehistoric times? That is to say, in ancient China, the saying that "tea was used for drinking and originated from Shennong" was not only recorded in legends, but also well confirmed in ethnographic materials. It shows that Bashu tea industry started early, but it was recorded later in writing, and it was not recorded until the end of the Western Han Dynasty in Tongyue by Wang Bao. The tea information of Bashu in the pre-Qin period can prove it. 1. The Eight Records of Huayang Country in Changqu of the Eastern Jin Dynasty said: "The King of Wu has been loyal to Yin, the ancestors have been loyal to Ba, and the princes have been loyal to their sons ... Dan, lacquer, tea and honey have all been paid tribute." Second, Yang Shen mentioned in the Examination of Foreign Countries in Counties in Ming Dynasty that Hanshu Tongzhi is the name of Shu County. Mengyin, dialect, Shu people call tea "Meng Meng", which governs tea county. "
