History of Awaji Island
At present, the oldest official history in Japan is The History of Japan, which was written in 720 AD and compiled by Emperor Tianwu, with Prince Scheeren in charge.

That year was the eighth year of the opening of the Tang Dynasty, which was in its heyday. Japan learned a lot of advanced cultural knowledge from the Tang Dynasty and was eager to show its history overseas, so it compiled such a history book, which recorded the history from the so-called Brandon to the reign of Emperor Zhi, all written in ancient Chinese.

Now many Japanese can't understand it and need to be translated into modern Japanese.

However, we in China can easily understand this book. Then you will find that some records in this ancient Japanese history book are relatively large in scale, especially the first two volumes of Brandon, which are part of ancient myths and even more shocking.

For example, about the origin of Japanese territory, the records in the annals of Japan are very bizarre. Some people even say that after a brother and sister got married, 14 islands were born, forming the Japanese archipelago.

The names of the brother and sister are Xie Yi Nagi Ming and Isoboming, also known as Louis Nozun and Louis Ranzun respectively.

At that time, the God of Creation "Lord of Heaven" in the Japanese mythological world had created the universe, but it was still uncertain that there were many floating objects between heaven and earth.

According to Japanese Records of the Historian, one day, Nagi and Isobo ordered the brother and sister gods to come to the sky pontoon bridge between heaven and earth, and stirred a "Tianmu spear" in the sea. The sea water condensed by the spear dripped down and became an island, which was called Mud Chess Island.

"Ershen settled there, because he wanted to be husband and wife, and he got a continent." (The History of Japan, Volume 1) Brother and sister came to this small island. If this record holds, when they came to the island, they had tacitly agreed to get married and worked hard for the birth of Japanese territory.

However, the following dialogue is subtle and dirty.

"Because I asked Yin Shen,' What have you achieved?' "

In other words, the goddess Nagi asked the goddess Isobo, "Have you grown up?" The other party replied: "I have a female Yuan." The male god immediately responded and said the following sentence.

"I also have male yuan in my body. I want to be in my body and I want to be in your body. "

These dialogues are the original texts of the Japanese history book "The History of Japan", so I won't translate them here. Everyone knows it.

Later, my sense of ritual in Japan was fully demonstrated. The two immortals are brother and sister and husband and wife. They walked around the pillar. After meeting, the goddess praised the male god as "a beautiful boy" and the male god also called the goddess "a beautiful girl". However, it also exposed the Japanese idea that men are superior to women. The male god was very unhappy and complained that the other party spoke first, so they left again. This time, the male god spoke first, which was the completion of the wedding ceremony.

As a result, the couple gave birth to eight big islands: Awaji Island, Yuyi Island, Yinqi Island, Zhuzi Island, Yiji Island, Tsushima Island, Sadoshima, Daiwa and Fengqiujin Island, and later gave birth to six other small islands, totaling 14 islands.

In Japanese mythology, the "ancestor" of the Japanese emperor-the glorious god-was changed when Nagi, the male god, took a bath.

He washed his left eye and produced a god, that is, a god and a sun god. He washed his right eye and gave birth to Harle, also known as Luna. He also washed his nostrils, which led to the life of SUSANOO, the god of destruction.

This kind of imagination is really unimaginable.
