Longmen is the Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River, about 65 kilometers to the south, at the southernmost tip of the Shanxi-Shaanxi Gorge. To the south of Longmen, Guanzhong Plain is flat and open. The water of the Yellow River suddenly changed from a narrow dragon to a wide river, and its nature changed greatly. Longmen, Longmen Mountain Range and Liangshan Ridge in the west and east are close to each other, forming a wide and narrow entrance of only 100 meter, like a huge clip, which binds the river and forms a swift current. Every flood season, due to the difference of high water level, canyons and valleys suddenly widen, and the water level suddenly drops, forming an obvious water level difference in Longmen, so it is called "Longmen Three or Water". Secondly, the legendary story of "yue longmen the Carp" refers to jumping or water. The story is that despite all the difficulties, a small carp jumped this way and closed the door on Jackie Chan's way. You can skip it and become Jackie Chan. Only small crucian carp, and finally Jackie Chan's tenacity. Inspired by this story, the people of China have struggled tenaciously for thousands of years. Longmen Gorge, a natural wonder, was incredible to the ancients. They imagine Dayu sinking into the gorge and Longmen is also called "Yumenkou".
2。 The story of Dayu.
During the legendary period of Emperor Yao, floods occurred frequently in the Yellow River basin to protect agricultural production and prevent floods. In order to quell the flood, Emperor Yao called a meeting of tribal leaders to listen to the opinions of flood control experts. Gun suggested taking charge of the work. Accept the task of artillery, subgrade engineering damaged three yards of city water, and it is a residential area. The simple emperor Geng rose up and blocked the flood for 9 years, but failed. Finally, he was exiled to Yushan and died. After the emperor ascended the throne, he appointed Yu He as a gun. According to his flood experience, he summed up the natural trend that his father's "cannon" blocked the barrier and flowed from high to low into dredged rivers, depressions or lakes, introduced crowded and noisy floods, closed the four seas to calm the floods and made people move back to the highlands to engage in agricultural production. Later, Yu became the monarch of the Xia Dynasty, the first generation, and was called "the lips and descendants of Shen Yu".
In the process of Dayu, he left many touching stories. According to legend, he invented his own original measuring tools-ruler and ruler for traveling and going down the river, and used an axe to open Longmen and pout, and cut through Jishishan County and Qingtongxia to make the river smooth. 13 years, when he lived away from home, he was caught in a flood. He turned the house over three times and didn't even go in. His newborn baby has no job, and he is not afraid of hard caress. He holds his leg and brushes his hair. He successfully dealt with the Yellow River flood in China.
More than two thousand years ago, there were many clans and tribes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River and Yangtze River in China. Huangdi is one of the most famous tribal leaders in the Yellow River Basin. The leader of another famous tribe is called Emperor Yan. The Yellow Emperor and Yan Di are brothers. Jiuli in the Yangtze River valley is very powerful with their wisdom.
Brother Zhi 8 1, beast, the people they face are all bronze arms, very fierce. They specialize in making knives, crossbows and other weapons. Chiyou often leads his powerful tribe to invade and harass other tribes.
Once, Yan Di invaded and resisted, but his opponent was unwise and his wisdom was defeated. Huangdi, who didn't escape from Emperor Yan, asked for help in Zhuolu. The Yellow Emperor had long wanted to get rid of the scourge of this tribe, so he joined forces with other tribes and launched a decisive battle between Zhuolu and Chiyou. This is the famous "Battle of Zhuolu".
At the beginning of the war, Zhi Zhi won victory after victory with excellent weapons and brave soldiers. Later, the Yellow Emperor invited him to help fight against dragons and other strange beasts. Although the clever soldiers were brave, they met the troops of the Yellow Emperor, and together with these wild animals, they could not resist their rout.
The Yellow Emperor led his troops to follow up and kill them. Suddenly, the sky was foggy, the wind was strong, there was lightning and thunder, and it rained heavily. The soldiers of the Yellow River Emperor could not continue to catch up. Fengshen and Yushen were invited to help out. The Yellow Emperor is not to be outdone, and the drought god "asks God to bless and disperse the wind and rain. In an instant, the wind stopped raining and the sky was clear.
Chi Haotian's witchcraft and fog made the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor lose their way. The phenomenon that the Yellow Emperor's Big Dipper always points to the north in the sky puts forward the fog of "guiding the south car and guiding the soldiers".
After many fierce battles, the Yellow Emperor killed 89 Chi brothers and finally captured Zhi alive. The Yellow Emperor ordered Guo to put on fetters and then executed him. Wisdom's death is afraid of trouble, and his head is buried 2 miles away. Throwing his shackles on the barren hills, his maple tree, every blood-red maple leaf, is Zhi's blood.
After Chi's death, his brave image is still vivid. The military flag painted on the statue of the Yellow Emperor encourages them to fight bravely and is also used to intimidate his tribe. Later, with the support of many tribes of the Yellow Emperor, he gradually became the leader of each tribe.
The Yellow Emperor is versatile. Many people invented and built palaces, built cars, built boats and made clothes of different colors. Lei Zu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor, was also an inventor. It turns out that there are only wild silkworms, and people still don't know the use of silkworms. The ancestors taught people to raise silkworms, reel silk and weave cloth. From then on, China began to have a silk civilization. The Yellow Emperor invented the pavilion. She invented a movable pavilion for emergencies-an umbrella.
In ancient myths and legends in China, the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of China, are descendants of the Yellow Emperor, because the former Yan Di family is closely related to the Yellow Emperor tribe. People who later merged together often called themselves China people. To commemorate the legendary common ancestor of China people, they also built the "tomb" of the Yellow River Bridge Mountain in huangling county, northern Shaanxi. Every spring, China, on behalf of people from all over the world, gathers here to worship the ancestors of the Chinese nation.
