Brief introduction of Cang Xie
Cang Xie, formerly known as Hou Gang, also known as Cang Xie's first teacher, is also known as Shi Huang, Cang Wang and Cang Sheng. [1] Shuowen Jiezi, Shiben and Huainanzi all recorded that Cang Xie was a historian of left-handed characters in the period of the Yellow Emperor [2]. Seeing the footprints of birds and animals, I was inspired to classify, collect, sort out and use them, which played an important role in the creation of Chinese characters and was honored as the "sage of word creation" [3].

According to the records in the Jade River Map and Zen Tong Ji, Cang Xie once stood on his own as emperor and was a tribal leader in ancient times. During the reign, he received Luo Shu in Luoshui. [4][5]

Cang Xie is also the god of Chinese characters in Taoism. According to historical records, Cang Xie had two eyes and four eyes, and was born with a sense of virtue. He observed the movement trend of stars and the footprints of birds and beasts, and created characters according to his own image, which eliminated the ignorance of knotting at that time and created the foundation of civilization. Therefore, he is known as "Cang Xie of Wen Zu".

Real name: Cang Xie.

Alias: Master Cang Xie.

Time: Five Emperors Period

Ethnic group: Huaxia ethnic group

According to historical records, some documents record that Cang Xie was the left historian of the Yellow Emperor, and the word made a saint [6] [7]; According to another document, Cang Xie was a tribal leader who once became a disciple of the emperor [5] [4].

Word-making sage

Cang Xie said in ancient books that Cang Xie was "handsome with four eyes and born with virtue". According to legend, China was the left historian of the Yellow Emperor in the late primitive society [8], and Cang Xie was the left historian. Recite as an official history. According to historical records, after the rise of the Yellow Emperor in Xuanyuan, the Yellow Emperor historians in Cang Xie and Juyong countries, inspired by the footprints of birds and animals, concentrated the wisdom of the working people and worked hard for decades to collect, sort out and popularize hieroglyphics circulated among ancestors [9]. Although the size and shape of knots are different, it is difficult to identify them according to their age. After Cang Xie looked up at the arc direction of Kuixing and looked down at the texture of turtle back, claw marks of birds and animals, shapes and palm prints of mountains and rivers, from which he got inspiration and created hieroglyphics according to the shapes of things.

Cang Jie

The image created by Cang Xie is called writing. There are six kinds of general concepts in Cang Xie's works, one is words referring to things, such as "up and down", and the other is image words, such as "day and month". The third refers to pictophonetic characters, such as "Jiang and He", and the fourth refers to knowing characters, such as "Wu and Xin". The fifth refers to word transfer, such as "Lao, Kao". Six-finger loanwords, such as "Ling, Chang". [10] refers to the words of things, up and down. Of hieroglyphics, full moon lost, imitating its shape. Pictophonetic characters are shaped by class and matched by sound. If you know what you say, you don't fight for the military power, and people's words are also credible. The translated words have also passed the old test. Under the guise of Chinese characters, several words are the same. Although they have different pronunciations, their meanings are the same. So from the Yellow Emperor to the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, it has been in use and has not changed. [ 1 1]

On the day of Cang Xie's ci-writing, the whole country rejoiced and moved to heaven. When the millet rained, it scared the brotherhood of the wolf, which was recorded in Huainanzi. [ 12] [ 13]

Tribal leader

"Jade Edition of River Map" records that Cang Xie is the tribal leader, Wu Yang is the capital, self-reliance is the emperor, and Cang Di is named [4]. Chen Jianian (4637 BC) was the first year of Cang Di.

Cang Jie

When he was in power, he made a southern tour to hunt his territory. Emperor Cang climbed Yangque Mountain and then went down to Luoshui, where Yuan Hu (a mysterious Hu) found the negative book and worshipped it from then on. [14] Luoling is located in Luoning County, Luoyang City. There is still a Cangjie word-making platform in the northwest of Xinghua Township, Luoning County, which was built by later generations to commemorate Cang Xie. Thousands of years ago, in ancient times, the appearance of river maps and Luo Shu heralded the change of astronomical phenomena and the birth of a new emperor on earth. Because the ancestors of many civilizations in history have a story, and Cang Xie is one of them.

Cang Xie reigned for forty-two years and died in Cang Xie for forty-two years (Yi You, before 4596) at the age of seventy-one. After his death, his body was buried in Li Xiang in memory of Cang Di. [4]

Major achievements

Judging from the records of ancient books, Cang Xie's contribution mainly includes the following aspects:

Changji's creation

First, improve the writing. The so-called "Cang (Cang) Shu" does not mean that the writing was invented completely by itself, but that the existing folk pictures and writing were widely collected and carefully arranged, thus creating a set of systematic and standardized hieroglyphics. [ 15]

Secondly, the number of the rise and fall of ancient emperors and the way of governing by the people are recorded in detail in Luo Shu, He Tu and Luo Shu. Only the doomed emperor can get it. After Cang Xie ascended the throne as emperor, he toured the southern territory, climbed Yangque Mountain, and went east along the Luohe River to Luoling, where Luoshui meets the Yellow River. He found that Gui Ling had a mysterious pattern on him, so he dedicated it to Cang Xie. Bagua is the evolution of Luo Shu and later the source of Zhouyi. [5]

history

Word-making historian

This prehistoric legend was never mentioned in China's ancient books before the Warring States Period. Cang Xie was first mentioned by Xun Qing during the Warring States Period. Later, it gradually developed into the legend that "Cang Xie was the official historian of the Yellow Emperor". Huangdi was one of the leaders of tribal alliances in the late primitive society. At that time, there was no state machine. It can be seen that the theory of "historian" is obviously the result of later generations using the official name of the state machine for prehistoric legends. [ 16]

The legend of "Cangjie creating characters" was widely circulated in the Warring States Period:

The Secret of Xunzi said: "There are many people who are fond of reading, but Cang Xie is the only one who writes books alone."

Everything is wrong: "The books written by Cang Xie in the past are also private, and private is called public."

"The Spring and Autumn Annals of Lu" also records: "Xi Zhong made cars, books, crops and punishments, and Kunwu made pottery and cities. These six people did a good job. "

"The Book of Huainanzi" records: "Cang Xie is used to writing books, and the ghosts cry at night."

It is recorded in the preface to Shuo Wen Jie Zi: "Cang Xie's early book, Gai Yi is like pictographic characters, so it is called the text; After that, the form and sound benefit each other, that is, words. "

In the book Chunqiu Yuanming Pao, it was further recorded that Cang Xie was "long-faced, discerning, true-minded, and naturally literary. Therefore, the change of the poor world, looking up at the round song of Kuixing, overlooking the mountains and rivers of turtles, birds and feathers, making words with the palm of your hand, the sky is rain millet, ghosts cry at night, Long Yin. "

Volume 21 of Xu Jian's Book of Beginners records: "It is easy to say that' the ancient times were governed by a rope, and the later sages used it to write books'" and "Cang Xie made words, then wrote books, and then got it."

Tang Dynasty Ximing Temple Leader (? ~ 683) In his masterpiece Fa Zhu Yuan Lin, there is such a record: "Once upon a time, three people wrote books. Brahma, whose book is on the right; The second time, Lu Lu badminton, his book left; The few are pale, and their books are under. " (Zheng Da Zang, Vol. 53, p. 35 1, middle and lower)

According to Buddhist legends in the late Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Tang Dynasty, Cang Xie and the immortals who created Sanskrit and Jiashu in India were three brothers, and Brahma sent them down to create characters in Tianzhu and China.

The Dictionary of Place Names in China contains: "Cang Xie, when the Yellow Emperor was Zuo's, was born holy, with four eyes, watching the traces of birds and beasts, and the word became, and the rain was millet, and ghosts cried at night. [17] "Historical Records written by Sima Qian, Shuowen Jiezi written by Han Xu Shen and Complete Works of State Affairs all hold this view.

The Zen Tong Ji written in the Song Dynasty says, "The first emperor was surnamed Hou, and his name was Hao. There is true virtue, and there are books when you are born; The dragon's face is luxurious, and his eyes are bright ... Look up at the round curve of Kuixing, look down at the tortoise script, bird feathers, mountains and rivers, and make words with his fingers ... The sky is raining millet, and ghosts cry at night, Long Yin. "

Zhang Yanyuan's History of Famous Paintings and the Origin of Narrative Paintings explains: "You have four eyes and look up at the sky. Because of the traces of turtles, the shape of calligraphy is determined. Nature can't hide secrets, so it rains a lot; Ghosts can't hide from shapes, so ghosts cry at night. At that time, calligraphy and painting were inseparable, just like the creative system, but they were still slightly different. No book conveys its meaning, no painting sees its shape, and the meaning of heaven and earth saints. "

The preface to Shuo Wen Jie Zi records: "Cang Xie, the history of the Yellow Emperor, saw the hoof tracks of birds and animals, and his knowledge was different. At first, he made a book publishing contract, and everything was far away. "This record describes the story of Cangjie's word-making.

"Lu Chunqiu Review JUNSHOU" said: "The west is a car, Cang Xie is a book, Hou Ji is a crop, a punishment, and Kunwu is a pottery and a city. These six people did a good job. " [ 18]

"The Secret of Gouzi" records: "There are many good books, only Cang Xie." [ 19]

Tribal leader

Other history books record that Cang Xie was a tribal leader.

The ancient prose "River Map Jade Edition" contains a text: "For the emperor's southern tour, riding Yangque Mountain, facing Yuanshui. The book was written by Gui Ling and given to him by Jia Dan Qingwen. "

Explain the doubt in Han Shu Gu Jin Man: "Cang Xie either thinks he is an ancient emperor or a historian of the Yellow Emperor, and his doubt cannot be solved. [20]

Chunqiu Yuanming Bao: Zang Dishi, Huang surnamed Hou. The dragon has a luxurious face and bright eyes. There is truth and virtue, and books are born. It is also influenced by the green character of the river map, so it is poor in the world. Looking up at the stars, we tend to know the trend, overlooking the mountains and rivers where turtles and birds talk, and making words with our palms. The sky is rain millet, ghosts cry at night, and dragons are hidden. After ten years in Wu Yang, he was finally buried in the official benefits pavilion. "

Evaluation of Cang Xie:

In the distant ancient primitive society, human beings gradually developed from "recording stones" and "recording ropes" to "symbols and characters". Ancient symbols and characters have lasted for about 5,000 years in the history of China, and early ancient cultural records were basically recorded with symbols and characters.

Cang Xie's achievement lies in his extensive collection of folk pictures and characters, and his creation of systematic hieroglyphics. The history books say, "Emperor Cang was born to study. And the words recorded in the river map, so the world is changing, looking up at the trend of kuixing and singing, overlooking the turtle-patterned birds and feathers mountains and rivers and creating words. It's raining millet, ghosts cry at night, Long Yin. " (A Textual Research on Huang Yishu's Book and the Spring and Autumn Period and Yuan Dynasty).

Bust of Cang Xie.

In fact, this is just the blind worship of Cang Xie by the ancients, which has been hyped by generations of scholars and historians, so Cang Xie became the ancestor of China's writing invention. In fact, the written history of China is thousands of years earlier than that of Cang Xie.

In the dazzling historical picture of the Chinese nation, Cang Xie is a figure between myth and legend. He is an ancient sage from the perspectives of mythology, ethnology and folklore. He is known as "Long Yan's Four Eyes" and "Sound follows Ruide" (Lun Heng, Shi Lv Chun Qiu), and his outstanding achievement lies in "making a statement at the beginning to end the world". The creation of this "secret weapon" of human beings makes it "raining in the sky, crying at night, hiding in hiding" ("Huainanzi"), which can be called a heroic pioneering work that makes the gods cry.

"Cang Xie wrote a book, but it rained and the ghost cried at night" [12]. As soon as the text came out, human beings turned from wild years to civilized life.

Cang Xie, an ancient cultural hero.

Cang Xie's influence on later generations.

Cang Xie unified different forms of writing, making it systematic and neat [2 1], which had a far-reaching impact on later generations. After the unification of China in the 26th year of Qin Shihuang (22 1 year), he followed Cang Xie's example to carry out "writing with the same character" and forcibly arranged and standardized the characters on a large scale. It is recorded in the preface to Shuo Wen that before the reunification of Qin Dynasty, there were "seven countries" and "different languages and different characters" between countries. After reunification, "I think Reese is playing with it, but not with Qin Wen." Our company wrote Cang Xie, CZ ordered Zhao Gao to write Calendar, and a surname ordered Hu Wujing to write erudition, all of which took history as a seal, or existed quite a bit, so-called small seal. "The Qin dynasty unified and simplified the text and adopted the seal script. It can be seen that the invention and dissemination of characters can not be completed by one person at a time, and it carries the wisdom of more ancestors. After repeated screening, it finally became standardized and accepted by people. As the inventor of Chinese characters, Cang Xie is only the representative and symbol of many "wise men" who have contributed to the invention of Chinese characters. [22]

"Stone Ben Zuo pian": "When it rains, the ghost cries at night", and "Guan Zi Wang Tie" Song Dynasty poet Lu Dian explained: "When it rains, the ghost cries at night", which is the right time and the extreme of moral decay. "Before Cangjie created the word, it was' Metaphysics of Homomorphism to Virtue', and after Cangjie created the word, it was' Metaphysics to Virtue and Decline'. Therefore, Cang Xie's invention of writing is an earth-shattering feat. [22]

Cang Xie's memory in later generations;

There are many monuments in memory of Cang Xie in China, including Cang Xie Ridge, Cangjie Temple and Word-making Platform. Among the numerous Cang Xie and its relics, four were built in the Han Dynasty: Henan Nanle [23], Yucheng [24], Kaifeng [25] [26] and Shaanxi Baishui [27]; Founded in the Jin Dynasty, it is divided into Shouguang, Shandong and Dong 'a [28]; It was built in two places in the Song Dynasty: Wu Yang and Luoning [29].

Nanle Cangjie Tomb:

Cang Xie ra.

Cang Xie Ridge is located in Nanle County, Henan Province, formerly known as Cang Xie Temple, near wucun in the northwest of the county seat. Built in the second year of Yongxing in the Eastern Han Dynasty (154), it was destroyed and built repeatedly. 1966 A devastating disaster left Cang Xie Temple in ruins, and the tomb of Cangjie was also dug up, and a large number of cultural relics from Longshan and Yangshao periods were unearthed. There are two old monuments in Cang Xie Temple: one is the remnant monument in the Yanyou period of the Yuan Dynasty, with the inscription "Cang Xie was born and buried in Sri Lanka, which is the light of the people in the city"; Another old inscription is engraved with the couplet left by Kou Zhun, a famous figure in the Northern Song Dynasty, when he paid homage to Cang Xie Temple: "Pangu was gentle and opened the house of saints". [30] There is a Cangjie Temple on the west side of the mausoleum, which was built in the second year of Yongxing in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 154). These large buildings were completely destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. On September 25th, 2000, the People's Government of Henan Province announced it as a provincial key cultural relics protection unit.

There are many records about the burial place of Cang Xie in the history books. Zen Tong Ji says that "Cang Xie lived in Wu Yang and was buried in the countryside". In the Ming Dynasty's Bianjing Site Records, it was written: "The tomb of Cangjie is in the north of the city, so it is safe." The inscription "Cang Xie was born in Sri Lanka and buried in Sri Lanka, and he is also the light of the citizens" is engraved on the site of Nanle County during the Yanyou period of the Yuan Dynasty.

Tomb of Cangjie in Yucheng County:

Cangjie Tomb is located in the northwest corner of Guduipo Village, Wang Ji Township12km northwest of Yucheng County, Shangqiu City, Henan Province. Cang Xie, the historian of the Yellow Emperor and the originator of writing, was buried here after his death. As for when the tomb of Cangjie was built, there is no textual research. Every spring and autumn, the incense of the past dynasties continues.

According to Yucheng County Records, in the sixth year of Xi Ping (AD 177), Emperor Gaozu erected a monument in front of Cang Xie's tomb, and later abolished the book "Ancient Cangjie Tomb". In the forty-first year of Kangxi (1702), the monument was rebuilt, and the word "Ancient Cangjie Tomb" was carved, which was later abolished. In the 9th year of Kangxi (1670), Yucheng County ordered Cheng Benjie to rebuild the third hall of Cang Xie Temple. After the founding of New China, Cangjie Tomb was identified as a key cultural relics protection unit at the county level by Yucheng County People's Government.

Kaifeng Cangjie Tomb:

Kaifeng Cangjie Tomb is 9.5 kilometers northeast of this city, outside the Yellow River levee and on the north side of Liuzhuang Village. "Records of Bianjing Site in Ming History" contains: "The tomb of Cang Xie is located in the north of the city. Commonly known as Cangwangtun. " Zen Tong Ji says that "Cang Xie lived in Wu Yang and was buried in Li Xiang". Regarding the location of Li Xiang, Miro said: "Junyi County is Wugangyang Township in the Spring and Autumn Period, or Li Xiang Township. This is also an instant protection market. " This is one of the important arguments for Kaifeng to identify Kaifeng Cangjie Tomb as an original. There are also records about the city and Cangyuan Mausoleum in annotations, Taiping Ji in Song Dynasty and Chenliu Custom Biography in Eastern Han Dynasty.

Today's Cangjie tomb is oval, with a circumference of 30 square meters and a height of 4 meters. There is a mound about 300 meters southeast of the tomb, with a height of 1.5 meters and a circumference of 30 square meters, which is called Cangjie word-making platform. In the old days, there were stone archways and Cang Xie Temple on the stage. The temple was demolished in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and the brick and wood parts of Kaifeng Confucian Temple were the original objects of Cangjie Temple.

The story of the title of Phoenix:

According to legend, after the Yellow Emperor unified China, he felt that taking notes with knotted ropes was far from meeting the requirements, so he ordered the historian Cang Xie to find a way to make words. Then, Cang Xie built a house on the high platform on the south bank of Wei River, settled down and devoted himself to writing. However, he thought hard for a long time and didn't say anything. As luck would have it, one day, while Cang Xie was thinking, he saw a phoenix flying in the sky with something in its mouth right in front of Cang Xie. Cang Xie picked it up and saw a hoofprint on it, but Cang Xie couldn't recognize it, so he asked a hunter who happened to come. The hunter looked at it and said, "This is the hoofprint of a brave dog, which is different from that of other wild animals. I know the footprints of other wild animals at a glance. " Cang Xie was encouraged by the hunter's words. He believes that everything has its own characteristics. If we can grasp the characteristics of things and draw images, everyone can know them. Isn't this a sentence? Since then, Cang Xie has carefully observed the characteristics of various things, such as the sun, moon, stars, clouds, mountains, rivers, lakes and oceans, as well as various animals and birds, and applied utensils, and drew graphics according to their characteristics, creating many hieroglyphs. As time went on, Cang Xie made more words. Cang Xie dedicated these hieroglyphs he made to the Yellow Emperor, who was very happy. He immediately called the chiefs of Kyushu and asked Cang Xie to teach them these hieroglyphs, so these hieroglyphs began to be used. In order to commemorate the contribution of Cangjie in word-making, later generations called the place where Cangjie made words "Fengshutai", and a temple was built here in the Song Dynasty, named "Fengtai Temple".

Cang Xie's Ci:

Call the pale sound of birds; Cang Xie Temple in Baishui County was built in the Han Dynasty. It has a "bird-marked book tablet" in the A Qing era, and 28 strange symbols are engraved on the black stone tablet. According to legend, this is the prototype of hieroglyphics made by Cang Xie in those days. These books are made up of small figures and pictures. This is the earliest hieroglyph in the world. 1984 was deciphered as "Wu Jijia and B, who were friends in the first place, stopped in the world, made great achievements, stayed with X families, and were honored by Chishui, but Mao Ge still exists". [34] According to Records of the Five Emperors, Yan Di has a sacred virtue, that is, the king of fire. The Yellow Emperor is called the Yellow Emperor because of its virtue and yellow soil. He lives in Zhuolu and is located in the central position. Therefore, "Wuji" represents the Yellow Emperor and "A and B" represents Yan Di. "Being in the first place, sharing friends, stopping in the world, is famous for its style." Describe that the Emperor Yanhuang was a tribal leader, and what they did was a model for all the small tribes in the world. "Stay in each other's homes, respect Chishui, and overwhelm Mao Ge", describing the Yellow Emperor's conquest of Yan Di, the suppression of Chiyou rebellion, the restoration of peace in the world, the people living and working in peace, and the Yellow Emperor becoming the tribal leader in the world. In addition, in the gate, front hall, middle hall and bedroom hall, plaques carefully written by Yu Youren, Qiu Xing and Xie Deping are hung to praise the holy spirits of Wen Zu and Cang Xie.

Anecdotes about word-making.

According to legend, Cang Xie was an official under the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor assigned him to be in charge of the number of livestock in the fence and the number of food on the chariot. The storage of livestock and food is gradually increasing, and I can't remember it with my head alone. Cang Xie tried to tie a knot on the rope all day and all night. He used ropes of different colors to represent different animals and foods, and knots tied with ropes represented each number. But over time, it won't work. How can I not make mistakes? On this day, Cang Xie took part in the collective hunting. When he came to a fork in the road, several old people were arguing about which way to take. An old man insisted on going east, saying there were antelopes; An old man wants to go north, saying that he can catch up with the deer not far ahead; An old man insisted on going west, saying that there were two tigers, and if they were not killed in time, they would miss the opportunity. Cang Xie, it turns out that they are all looking at the footprints of wild animals on the ground. Cang Xie suddenly felt happy: Since a footprint represents a wild animal, why can't I use a symbol to represent what I am responsible for? He ran home happily and began to create various symbols to represent things.

Cang Xie portrait back page:

When the Yellow Emperor knew it, he praised it and ordered Cang Xie to teach this method to all tribes. Gradually, the usage of these symbols became popular, and the writing was thus formed. [35]

Cang Xie made a word, and the Yellow Emperor attached great importance to him. Everyone praised him, and his reputation is growing. Cang Xie's mind was a little hot, and his eyes slowly moved to the top of his head. No one looks down on him, his handwriting is very scrawled. When these words reached the ears of the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor was very angry. Courtiers have no room for deterioration in his eyes. How did Cang Xie realize his mistake? The Yellow Emperor called the oldest old man around him to discuss. The old man has tied more than 120 knots on his long beard, which shows that he is over 120 years old. The old man hesitated and went to Cang Xie alone. Cang Xie is teaching people from all tribes to read. The old man sits quietly at the end and listens as carefully as everyone else. After Cang Xie finished speaking, everyone else dispersed, and only the old man was still sitting in his old place. Cang Xie was a little curious and asked him why he didn't go.

Cang Xie color image back:

The old man said, "Cang Xie, your words have become a household name, but I am old and dizzy, and some words are still unclear. Will you teach me again? " Cang Xie was glad to see such an old man respect him so much, and urged him to speak quickly. The old man said, "The three words you created-horse, donkey and mule-all have four legs, and so do cows. Why not create the word "cow" with only one tail? " Cang Xie was a little flustered when he heard this: when he first coined the word "fish", it was written like a cow, and when he coined the word "cow", it was written as a fish. It's all my own carelessness, and I actually taught it backwards. The old man went on to say, "The word' heavy' you made means that you have to pronounce the word' out' from a long distance away, but you taught people to pronounce the word' heavy' as weight. On the other hand, the word "out" when two mountains are combined should be the word "heavy" for weight, but you have taught it to be the word "out" when going out. These words really puzzle me, so I have to ask you. "

At this time, Cang Xie was ashamed and knew that he had made a big mistake because of his pride. These words have been taught by all tribes and spread all over the world, and cannot be changed. He quickly knelt down and expressed his regret with tears. The old man took Cang Xie's hand and said sincerely, "Cang Xie, you have created words, so that the experience of our older generation can be recorded and passed on. You have done a great thing, people will remember you from generation to generation, but you can't be arrogant. "

From then on, every time Cang Xie made a word, he always scrutinized the meaning of the word, but he could ask people's opinions, and he was not careless. Everyone agreed, so it was settled, and then it was slowly extended to all tribes.

Anecdotes about obese students;

Legend has it that Cang Xie was born with "two eyes and four eyes". There are only eight primary school students in China history books: Cang Xie, Zhong Er, Yu Shun, Xiang Yu, Lv Guang, Gao Yang, Yu Kan and Li Yu. Cang Xie was a word-making saint in the era of the Yellow Emperor. Yu Shun is a humble and filial saint, one of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. Zhong Er and Jin Wengong are one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period; Lu Guang was the cool king who swept the western regions during the Sixteen Kingdoms period. Gao Yang was the founder of the Northern Qi Dynasty. According to legend, Yu Kanluo was a famous war star of Li Yuanba in Sui Dynasty. Li Yu is a famous poet and writer after the Southern Tang Dynasty during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. Xiang Yu is an unprecedented "overlord of the West Chu".

Local disputes

Cang Xie's native place, according to "Wan Xing Tong Pu" Volume 52: It is recorded that "in ancient times, there were Cang Xie people, Nanle Wucun people, born with four eyes, and they were historians of Xuanyuan Huangdi." [36] "Ming Yi Tongzhi Ancient Words" also records: "Cang Xie, a native of Nanle Wucun, has four eyes, and his writing system is mainly bird watching, which is the official history of Xuanyuan Huangdi". [37] Another person from Wu Yang Village, Baishui County, Shaanxi Province [38].
