Folk stories of the Three Yellow Rivers

It is said that a long time ago, the ancient Yellow River was a wild horse that was difficult to tame. It is like a grinning monster, running at will, roaring day and night, devouring fertile land. Bite Chung Shan Man, the Hui people on both sides of the Yellow River can only live a slash-and-burn life at the top of the mountain and at the bottom of the ditch.

At that time, Ningxia was not a plain bordered by Ma Pingchuan, but green mountains and valleys. There is no flat field, and no field can be irrigated with Yellow River water.

Legend has it that there are several families living in Niushou Mountain who return to the Han family. They carry water at the foot of the mountain and farm at the top of the mountain for generations. All ages are busy, but they don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes. For a long time, no one could stand this torture.

One year, a 70-year-old Hui Hui man named Del opened a melon garden on the mountain and planted some cucumbers. He gets up early every day and goes to the Yellow River to fetch water and water cucumbers. His shoulders are swollen and his feet are skinned. He carefully cultivated cucumbers, and the yellow ones looked tender and sweet.

On this day, the old man was tired and fell asleep at the gate of the vegetable garden.

As soon as he fell asleep, he dreamed that there was a white cloud floating in the sky. Gradually, Baiyun became an imam with a white beard, shook his silver beard and said to the old man, "There are two strong winds today, so you should pay attention. There is a yellow wind at noon, which can make cucumbers wither; There is a black wind in the afternoon, which can make cucumber stems fall off. No matter how windy it is, don't pick cucumbers.

When the old man woke up, he saw that the white-bearded imam had disappeared, but he saw that the yellow wind in the north was overwhelming and suddenly blew to Niushou Mountain. The old man looked at the cucumbers carefully, and sure enough, they faded one by one. He was very sad. A year's efforts were in vain, but the thought of the white-bearded imam stopped him.

In the afternoon, a black wind blew, shaking the earth and shaking the leaves layer by layer. When the old man saw that the cucumber was about to fall to the ground, he was very angry. He picked a cucumber and threw it into the Yellow River. The Yellow River immediately broke a line. As if he had been cut by a fairy with a knife, he clearly saw the bottom of the river. When the old man Gerd swooped down, the river suddenly joined again. The old man was tired and hungry, sitting on the river bank, blinking, and the golden flower danced wildly and was dizzy.

At this time, the old man in Del heard the white-bearded imam say, "This cucumber is the key to conquering the Yellow River. You can cut off the Yellow River and make it listen to people. But now the Yellow River is called Yellow Wind and Black Wind, and these two Iberians are suffering. Don't be impatient, be patient and work harder. Next year, you plant another cucumber garden. When the cucumber is ripe, you pick the biggest one and throw it into the Yellow River. At that time, you walked into the cave at the bottom of the river, took off the gems, took away the seeds of the grain, and had a sword to cut the dragon and the devil and tame the Yellow River. Wherever it is referred to, the Yellow River water will flow. "

The next year, the hardworking old man Gerd planted another cucumber garden. He is not afraid of the long journey, and he does not hesitate to sweat like rain, carrying water from the Yellow River to water melons. Everything comes to him who waits. Finally, a three-foot cucumber grows in the garden, which looks like a key. The old man happily slept in the melon garden for a day and a night until the melon was ripe.

On this day, the weather was fine, without a cloud. Old man Wilder picked a three-foot cucumber, read "Taismi" and threw it into the Yellow River. At this time, I only heard the roar of the Yellow River, and I opened a long crack. All the stones at the bottom of the river are clearly visible. When the old man went down to the bottom of the river, he saw a hole near the river bank, where pearls and agates were everywhere. The old man took some and just left, he heard the storm whistling. Once, the waves rolled on the river, and each wave was higher than the other. The old man Gerd picked up his sword and cut dozens of swords on the left and right sides of the black whirlwind and the yellow whirlwind. After a while, black wind and yellow wind blew in the sky.

At this time, the faults of the Yellow River gradually tightened. Del's old man remembered the command of the white-bearded imam, and this sword could conquer the Yellow River. He knew very well, and he thought, I want the Yellow River to fill ditches and level mountains. Holding two swords, the old man plunged into the Yellow River, and the water in the Yellow River stopped flowing at once, as if a Great Wall had been blocked in front, but it was still rising steadily, which was really scary from a distance.

Three days later, from Liupanshan in the south to Helan Mountain in the west, there was water everywhere, leaving only a few mountain tips. Only then, the old man, Gerd, drew his sword and told the Yellow River to flow forward.

Since then, Ningxia, a deep mountain valley, has become Ma Pingchuan, and the Hui people living on both sides of the Yellow River have dug ditches for farmland with hard-working hands and lived a happy life.

Ⅳ What is the story of lying in bed farming?

In the Ming dynasty, there was a landlord with a thousand acres of fertile land and a large number of wives, but he was not satisfied. He is bent on immortality. Later, a Jianghu Taoist told him that if you want to cultivate immortality, you must learn to farm first, and he said that he would go to other places to learn to farm. When he saw a field with wheat and it was very lush, he asked the farmer how he could grow it so well. The farmer replied, "nothing else, just dig up the soil and add some fertilizer." The landlord went to his field and cultivated it according to law. He turned the soil loose and fertilized it, waiting to sow the seeds, but he was afraid to step on it and harden, so he said, "I'd better sit on the soft bed and let people carry it." I want to plant seeds on it so that the land won't harden. " He called four people, one holding the feet of getting up and carrying him to sow seeds. In this way, two feet are replaced by eight feet, and with the heavy bed, the soil is really hard. Of course, the wheat didn't grow, and the landlord's dream of ascending to heaven was shattered.

Folk stories about the Yellow River

Folk stories related to the Yellow River:

Thousands of years ago, many clans and tribes lived in the Yellow River and Yangtze River basins in China. Among them, the Yellow Emperor is the most famous tribal leader in the Yellow River Basin. Another famous tribal leader is called Emperor Yan. The Yellow Emperor and Yan Di are brothers. There is a Jiuli nationality in the Yangtze River valley, and their leader is Chiyou, who is very strong. Chiyou has eighty-one brothers, all of whom have bronze heads and iron arms. They are good at making weapons such as knives and crossbows. Chiyou often leads his powerful tribe to invade and harass other tribes.

Once, Chiyou occupied the position of Emperor Yan, and Emperor Yan rose up to resist, but he was no match for Chiyou and was defeated by Chiyou. Emperor Yan had no choice but to flee to Zhuolu, where the Yellow Emperor was located, for help. The Yellow Emperor wanted to get rid of the scourge of this tribe for a long time, so he joined forces with tribal leaders to launch a decisive battle with Chiyou in the land of Zhuolu. This is the famous "Battle of Zhuolu".

At the beginning of the war, Chiyou won victories again and again with excellent weapons and brave soldiers. Later, the Yellow Emperor invited dragons and other strange beasts to help. Although Chiyou's soldiers were brave, they couldn't resist the Yellow Emperor's army and this group of beasts and fled one after another.

The Yellow Emperor led the troops to win the battle, and suddenly it was dark, with thick fog, strong wind, lightning and thunder, and heavy rain, so the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor could not continue to catch up. It turned out that Chiyou invited "Fengshen" and "Rain God" to help out. Not to be outdone, the Yellow Emperor invited the "drought god" in the sky to help dispel the wind and rain. In a flash, the wind stopped raining, and the sky was clear in Wan Li.

Chiyou also created a fog with witchcraft, which made the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor lose their way. The Yellow Emperor used the phenomenon that the Big Dipper always points to the north in the sky to build a "south guide car" to guide soldiers out of the fog.

After many fierce battles, the Yellow Emperor killed 81 Chiyou brothers, and finally captured Chiyou alive. The Yellow Emperor ordered Chiyou to be shackled and then put to death. Afraid of causing trouble after Chiyou's death, he buried his head and body in two far places. The shackles worn by Chiyou were thrown on the barren hills and turned into maple forests. Every flaming maple leaf is covered with the blood of Chiyou.

After the death of Chiyou, his brave image is still frightening. The Yellow Emperor painted his image on the military flag to encourage his troops to fight bravely and intimidate the tribes who dared to fight with him. Later, the Yellow Emperor was supported by many tribes and gradually became the leader of each tribe.

The Yellow Emperor was versatile and made many inventions, such as building palaces, making cars, building ships and making five-color clothes. Lei Zu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor, was also an inventor. It turns out that silkworms are only wild, and people don't know the use of silkworms. It was Lei Zu who taught people to raise silkworms, reel silk and weave cloth. From then on, China began to have a silk civilization. After the Yellow Emperor invented the pavilion, she also invented an umbrella that can move in rainy days.

Legends in ancient China highly praised the Yellow Emperor, and later generations believed that the Yellow Emperor was the ancestor of the Chinese nation, and he was the descendant of the Yellow Emperor. People in China often call themselves descendants of the Yellow Emperor, because they are close relatives and later merged together. To commemorate this legendary ancestor, China people also built a "Huangdi Mausoleum" on the Qiao Shan near the Yellow River in the north of huangling county, Shaanxi. Every spring, Chinese representatives from all over the world gather here to worship the ancestor of the Chinese nation.

Myths and legends:

Dayu had three treasures when he governed the Yellow River. One is the river map; The second is a mountain axe; The third is to avoid water swords. Legend has it that the river map was given to Dayu by Hebo, the water god of the Yellow River.

In ancient times, there was a man named Feng Yi in Huayin General Township. He is uneasy about farming and wants to become an immortal. He heard that people can become immortals after drinking the juice of daffodils for one hundred days. So I looked everywhere for daffodils.

Before Dayu harnessed water, the Yellow River flowed to the Central Plains. There is no fixed channel, it flows everywhere and is often flooded. There are seven strands and eight roads on the ground, and the gullies are all Yellow River water. Feng Yi ran around looking for daffodils, often crossing, crossing and dealing with the Yellow River. Ninety-nine days passed in the blink of an eye, and then I found a daffodil and sucked the juice of the daffodil for a day, so I could become an immortal. Feng Yi was so proud that he crossed the Yellow River and went to a small village to look for daffodils. The water here is not deep. Feng Yi waded across the river and reached the middle of it. Suddenly, the river rose. He panicked, slipped, fell into the Yellow River and was drowned alive.

After Feng Yi's death, she was full of grievances and resentments and hated the Yellow River, so she went to the Jade Emperor to sue the Yellow River. The Jade Emperor was also annoyed when he heard that the Yellow River was undisciplined and wandering around, endangering the people. Seeing that Feng Yi had been sucking the juice of daffodils for ninety-nine days, it was time to become an immortal. He asked Feng Yi if he would be the water god of the Yellow River and govern it. Feng Yi was overjoyed. Full of promises. Now I can realize my dream of becoming an immortal, and secondly I can avenge my drowning.

Feng Yi became the water god of the Yellow River and was called Hebo. He has never been involved in water control, and suddenly assumed the responsibility of managing the Yellow River, helpless and worried. What should we do? I have no magic weapon, so I have to ask the Jade Emperor for advice. The Jade Emperor told him that to manage the Yellow River well, we must first find out the water conditions of the Yellow River and draw a river map. Based on the river map of the Yellow River, it will be much easier to control the Yellow River.

Hebo, according to the instructions of the Jade Emperor, was bent on drawing a river map. He went to his hometown first and wanted to ask the villagers for help. Everyone in the village hated his idleness and his work, and no one answered him. He found the old man in the village and expressed his great ambition to govern the Yellow River. When the old man saw that he was now a fairy and wanted to do something good for the people, he promised to help him. From then on, Hebo and later old people came and went in the rain, wading through mountains and rivers to see the Yellow River water regime. After running for several years, the old man was tired. After the old man only went back, the rest of Hebo continued to check the water situation along the Yellow River. When we parted, the old man repeatedly told Hebo that the director should go all the way and not give up halfway. After drawing the map, he began to manage the Yellow River, and there was not enough manpower. He persuaded the villagers to help.

It is a hard job to check the water regime and draw a river map. By the time Hebo finished drawing the river map, he was old and weak. Hebo looked at the river map, where the Yellow River is deep and shallow; Where it is easy to explode, it is easy to explode; Where to dig and where to block; Where the water can be cut off and where the flood can be discharged are clearly drawn. I can only sigh that I have no strength to manage the Yellow River according to the map, which is very sad. Hebo thought that one day someone would come to harness the Yellow River. It will be worthwhile to give him the river map then.

Hebo spent his old age under the Yellow River and never appeared again. Unexpectedly, the Yellow River overflowed again and again. People know that the Jade Emperor sent Hebo to control water, but they didn't see him. They all scold Hebo for not doing his duty, regardless of whether people live or die.

The old man hasn't seen Hebo for several years after waiting for him every day in his hospital bed. He is uneasy about managing the Yellow River and wants to find Hebo. His son's name is Yi, and he shot every shot. No matter what the old man says, Yi won't let him go to Hebo. Later, the old man did not listen to his son's dissuasion. As a result, he met a breach in the Yellow River, was washed away and drowned, and even the body was not found. Hou Yi hated Hebo's guts and gnashed his teeth, saying that Hebo would be shot sooner or later.

Later, Dayu came out to control water, and Hebo decided to give him the map of the Yellow River.

On this day, Hebo heard that Dayu came to the Yellow River with an axe and a sword to avoid water, so he came out from the bottom with a river map to look for Dayu. Hebo and Dayu have never met before, and neither of them knows each other. Hebo walked for a long time and was so tired that he wanted to have a rest. He saw a young man crossing the river. This young man is a hero. He must be Dayu. Hebo shouted and asked, "Hello, who are you?"

The young man on the other side is not Dayu, but Hou Yi. He looked up, and on the other side of the river, a saint-like old man was asking loudly, "Who are you?"

Hebo said loudly, "I'm Hebo. Are you Dayu? "

When Hou Yi heard that it was Hebo, he immediately rushed to his heart and sneered, "I am Dayu." Said the bow and arrow, don't ask, don't indiscriminate, "sou" an arrow, hit Hebo's left eye. Hebo pulled an arrow on his eye, and he was sweating with pain. He cursed in his heart: "Damn prison, how unreasonable!" The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he tore up the water map. Just then, there was a loud shout: "Hebo! Don't tear the picture. " Hebo barely looked at it with his right eye. On the other side, a man in a hat stopped Hou Yi. This man is Dayu. He knew that Hebo had painted a picture of the Yellow River and was going to ask Hebo for advice. Hou Yi pushed Dayu away and tried to draw a bow and arrow. Dayu grabbed him desperately and told Hebo about the hardships of painting. Hou Yi regretted his recklessness and shot Hebo in the left eye.

Hou Yi and Dayu crossed the river together. Hou Yi admitted his mistake to Hebo. Hebo knew that Hou Yi was the old man's son and didn't blame him. Dayu said to Hebo, "I'm Dayu, and I've come to ask you for advice on how to manage the Yellow River."

Hebo said, "My heart and blood and the way to manage the river are all on this picture. I will give them to you now."

Look at Dayu's exhibition map, which is dense and dense, and draws the water situation of the Yellow River clearly. Dayu was extremely happy. He wants to thank Hebo. Looking up, Hebo jumped into the Yellow River and disappeared.

Dayu got the hydrological map of the Yellow River and kept it around the clock. According to the instructions on the map, he finally managed to control the Yellow River.

Eight stories about the land

1, the land god-Fu Deshen, whose real name is Zhang Fude, was clever and filial since childhood; Thirty-six years old, official to the chief tax collector of the court, honest and clean, considerate of the sufferings of the people, and did many good things. At the age of 102. Three days after his death, his appearance remained the same. A poor household is surrounded by four big stones and worships in a stone house. Before long, he became rich from poverty. The people believed that it was blessed by God, so they built a temple together and offered it as a sacrifice with gold, so merchants often used it as a sacrifice. It is also said that after his death, the tax collectors who took over paid taxes up and down, doing whatever they wanted, and the people were miserable. At this time, people remembered the benefits of Zhang Fude's ruling, so they built a temple to worship and named it "the God of fortitude".

2. Zuo Zhuan recorded the story of Zhong Er's escape: Zhong Er, tired and hungry day and night, begged food from an old farmer in the field. The old farmer handed him a handful of dirt without saying a word. Zhong Er was about to get angry, but was dissuaded by his entourage and whispered a few words. Zhong Er suddenly fell to his knees, kowtowed and thanked God, then solemnly grabbed a handful of dirt, put it in the car and continued to escape. ...

Zhao Shuai, the minister who followed him, told him that when you own this land, it means that you have a country, a country, a throne and power. Therefore, Zhong Er regards this land as a treasure. This is our ancient land ethics: land is all of society-wealth, power and country.

When I first arrived in Penglai, I saw that the sea water was half as shallow as before. Is it going to become land again? " Wang Yuan sighed: "Yes, the sage said that the sea is falling. Soon, there will be dust. "

According to legend, three thousand years ago, two Europeans sailed for Ireland. It was agreed in advance that whoever set foot on Irish soil first would be the king of Ireland.

As a result, he became king. So far, Ireland has a red hand on its national emblem. ......

(8) Extended reading of the story of farming by the river:

The land god is also one of the most well-known gods in Taoist myths and legends. He is the guardian of one side of the land and the god who forms a * * * with that side of the land, so the landowner of that side of the land will know everything. As the local patron saint, although its status is not high, it is the most common folk worship in China. The temples built for them in the past are found in almost every village. Legend has it that land can also go to heaven at will, but it has been left to the people.

Usually, the land god appears as an elderly couple. The man is called "land father-in-law" and the woman is called "land mother-in-law". The worship of land gods actually originated from ancient land worship. Later, this nature worship began to be personalized, and some real people gradually appeared to play this role, known as "land gods."

Because there are countless land gods in China, not many have real names. Generally, the temples built for them are very small, called "Land Temple", dedicated to an elderly couple sitting side by side. In the Ming Dynasty (1368- 1644), their worship began to flourish and spread to other ethnic groups.

In China, in the past, a grand festival party was held every year to worship this god. Later, this kind of gathering evolved into the most distinctive phenomenon in China-the temple fair, which became an important custom.

Sanmenxia is the most dangerous gorge in the last gorge before the Yellow River enters Sichuan. The terrain here is steep, the water is fast, and the stone walls on both sides are steep. Two stone islands in the river divide the rapids into three streams. People call these three waterways "Manmen", "Shenmen" and "Ghost Gate", hence the name "Sanmenxia". The water in the gate of hell and the gate of God is very dangerous, and it seems that only ghosts and gods can pass through; The water at the gate is a little slow, but it is also deep and fast, making it difficult to sail.

Now, these three natural disasters have disappeared, replaced by a dam across the canyon, which connects Shanxi and Henan provinces like a silver satin strip. This is the first large-scale water conservancy project on the main stream of the Yellow River-Sanmenxia Water Control Project, which started on 1957.
