Today, Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning Province, is an ancient city on the rich and beautiful Songliao Plain outside Shanhaiguan. Its geographical location is very important. It can go directly to North China Plain through Shanhaiguan in the west and Jilin and Heilongjiang in the north. In northern Shenyang, the winter is cold and long, and most of them lived by nomadic fishermen and hunters in history. Therefore, Shenyang is the main road of north-south traffic in Northeast China, and it is also a city connecting the Han nationality and the Manchu and Mongolian brothers.
As can be seen from history, Shenyang has a long history. During the Warring States Period, Yan opened up Liaodong and stationed troops here. By the Qin and Han Dynasties, Liaodong had established counties and became a county called "Houcheng". It was called Shen Zhou in the Tang Dynasty and in the Yuan Dynasty. Shenyang has arrived.
During the Ming dynasty, it was in the Ming dynasty that Shenyang increased its operation in the northeast. It was in the Ming Dynasty that brick walls were built, initially taking shape. The capital of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty is here, and the name of the country is Qing. Rebuild on the original city wall, open nine gates, build a city wall, and become nine gates and eight gates.
Then build a palace. The Temple of Heaven, Ditan, Ancestral Hall and Six Yamen are also called Shengjing in Shenyang. Of course, it means competing with Beijing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty. When the emperor shunzhi arrived, the Qing Dynasty moved its capital to Beijing, and Shenyang lost its status as the capital, but it was still regarded as the capital. There are many historical sites and ancient buildings in Shenyang now, and of course there must be many legends and stories accompanying them. ...
Legend has it that after Huang Taiji rebuilt Shenyang, the city was very prosperous. However, on a sultry summer night, suddenly dark clouds covered the whole sky, and the air smelled of blood everywhere. Anyone who smells it will faint. When they woke up, it was the second day, and people were horrified to find that all the women and children in the city were gone! At that time, people were looking for wives and children everywhere, and the city became a mess. Slowly, people heard that a scorpion essence appeared at Jiumenkou. That night, he did it at the gate, released a lot of poisonous gas, put people in a coma, and then took away women and boys. In this way, a good city immediately became panic, and the smell of terror spread everywhere. ...
It is said that there is such a family in Shenyang whose owner is Ji Yaozu. It is said that it is descended from Zhou Wuwang Ji Fa a long time ago. This family named Ji gave birth to a child this summer. They met such a monster in the city. All the neighbors have moved away. Only this family is surnamed Ji, because the housewife has just given birth to a child and can't leave. The family is in a hurry. One day at noon, such a monk came. Although the family is worried. Ji Yaozu told the monk the cause of the incident in detail, and told the monk to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible ... But the monk smiled and said, Don't worry, your son was born this year, and your family is a chicken. Your family name is Ji, and chickens can eat scorpions. This is providence. Let your family save the disaster here and shine on the lintel. . As soon as the voice fell, I saw a child running out of it, a child of Ji Yaozu, wearing a red Chinese-style chest covering.
Before Guillaume could speak, the monk picked up the child and left. When he went out, he became Martin and flew away ... Ji's family was in a hurry. . .
That night, scorpion essence released poisonous fog on the city gate, which permeated the whole city. Just then, a golden light in the sky, a rooster with a golden tail and a red crown, flew to the wall and fought with scorpion essence. I saw a strong wind blowing in the sky and it was dark. The golden rooster and the scorpion spent a whole night listlessly, and finally killed the scorpion essence and swallowed it whole. Then he rang three times in the sky, flew down from the wall and became a child in a red Chinese-style chest covering.
Here, all the cocks in the city flew out and rushed to the nine gates, eating up all the bricks and scorpions on the ground. Of course, all the women and children caught by the monster ran out of the monster hole and returned to their homes, and the bustling scene of Shenyang resumed. Because a rooster saved the whole city, it is a common practice for every family to raise chickens, and they especially like to raise big cocks with red crowns and golden tails.
