Seek 30 geographical anecdotes

1. Thermal expansion and cold contraction

In geography class, the teacher asked, "What will happen to ordinary objects when they are hot or cold?"

The student replied, "Heat expands and cold contracts."

The teacher nodded and said, "Yes, who can give an example?"

Wang Hui said: "For example, summer is very hot, so the days are very long;" It's cold in winter, so the days are short. This is the reason why it expands with heat and contracts with cold. "

The students burst out laughing. Why?

2. Milk on the map

It was hot, and my mother asked Shine Wong to put the milk in the refrigerator, but Shine Wong found a map of the world from her desk, spread it out on the table, and then put a bottle of milk in the Antarctic area of the map.

Mother asked, "Why did you put the milk on the map?"

Wang Hui explained: "Antarctica is the coldest region in the world, with an average annual temperature of around minus 25 degrees and a minimum temperature of below minus 88 degrees. It is found that the biscuits and cans left by explorers decades ago are not bad at all. If the milk is put there, the insurance won't break. It is much lower than the refrigerator temperature. "

3. First and then

One thunderstorm night, after the lightning, the thunder was loud.

The younger brother asked, "Brother Hui. Why do you always see lightning first and then hear thunder? "

Wang Hui proudly said, "I don't understand this either, because my eyes are in front and my ears are in the back. Of course, the eyes look first and the ears listen later. "

4.where are the stars?

At night, the stars twinkle in the sky. Brother suddenly asked, "Brother Hui, you can see so many stars at night, why can't you see them during the day?"

Wang Hui said, "That's not easy." He clenched his fist. "This is the earth, this is the stars. As soon as the earth rotates, the star goes around the earth. How can I see it? "

It's raining heavily.

Once upon a time, two people had never seen hail. One day, the sky suddenly began to hail. They all feel strange. One asked, "What is falling from the sky?"

The other said, "It's raining hard."

6. How crowded the moon is

When talking about the situation on the moon, the geography teacher said, "The moon is very big and spacious, and it can accommodate millions of people."

Student Yang Liang laughed.

The teacher asked strangely, "What are you laughing at?"

Yang Liang said, "Teacher, you don't know how crowded people living on the moon will be when the moon becomes a bud."

7. This is London, England

Wang Hui was on the bus and heard two people talking.

The tall man said, "Please tell me something about Jack London." The short man hasn't had time to answer. Wang Hui fought back a smile and said, "Uncle. Not London, Czech Republic, but London, England. "

8. hanging upside down

The younger brother asked, "Brother, the earth is spherical. How do people stand on the other side of the earth where we stand? "

My brother said, "Of course it's on the ground, hanging upside down."

The younger brother said, "How do they walk?"

Brother said, "They must not leave the ground when they walk, or they will fall."

The younger brother said, "fortunately, we are on the earth."

9. When there is no sun

Wang Hui asked his father, "Does the earth really go around the sun?"

Dad said, "Of course."

Wang Hui asked, "So, when there is no sun?"

10. Where is the origin of Hanshui River?

In geography class, the teacher said, "Last class talked about the origin of the Yangtze River and its main tributaries. Who can remember where Hanshui, a tributary of the Yangtze River, originated? "

Wang Hui was absent-minded and didn't hear the teacher's question. But the teacher asked him to answer, and Wang Hui was full of sweat.

Seeing his silence, the teacher asked, "Where is the origin of Hanshui?"

"Khan? Sweat originated in the head! "

1 1. Erlang Mountain is the highest.

In geography class, the teacher said, "The highest mountain in the world is Mount Everest, with an altitude of 8848 meters."

Wang Hui said, "No, I heard a song two days ago saying that Erlang Mountain is towering high. I calculated that 1 10,000 feet should be more than 30,000 meters, much higher than Mount Everest. "

The answer to "geography joke"

1. Thermal expansion and cold contraction

Because geography revolves around the sun obliquely, the northern hemisphere is exposed to sunlight for a short time and a long time in winter, so the days are short and the nights are long. In summer, the northern hemisphere is exposed to the sun for a long time and cannot be exposed for a short time, so the days are long and the nights are short, which has nothing to do with thermal expansion and contraction.

2. Milk on the map

The South Pole on the map can't replace the real South Pole.

3. First and then

People see lightning first and then hear thunder because the speed of light is fast, 300 thousand kilometers per second. The speed of sound is slow, only 340 meters per second, not because the eyes are in front and the ears are behind.

4。 Where are the stars?

You can't see the stars during the day, not because all the stars turn to the back of the earth, but because the sunlight is brightest during the day, covering up the faint starlight.

It's raining heavily.

Rain is liquid, and hail is solid, which mostly occurs in summer. In summer, the ground is very hot and the air rises strongly. When hot air rises to high altitude, water vapor condenses into small water droplets and then cools to form small ice crystals. After repeated lifting, the particles become bigger and bigger until the air can't hold up and hail falls from the sky.

6. How crowded the moon is

The moon changes from a full moon to a moon bud because the size of the bright side of the moon on the earth varies with the position of the moon around the earth. It's not that the size of the moon has changed.

7. This is London, England

Jack London is an American writer.

8. hanging upside down

The earth is a huge sphere. In space, the earth is surrounded by the sky. It doesn't matter which side is up and which side is down. The earth has a strong attraction. No matter where people are on the earth, their feet are on the ground and their heads are in the sky.

9. When there is no sun

The earth moves around the sun, producing four seasons. The rotation of the earth produces the alternation of day and night. It's night when the sun is behind you.

10. Where is the origin of Hanshui River?

Hanshui River originated in the mountainous area in the southwest of Shaanxi Province.

1 1. Erlang Mountain is the highest.

Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world, with an altitude of 8848 meters. Erlangshan is an adjective and an artistic exaggeration. Erlang Mountain is only 1800 meters above sea level.

Ji Yun, a scholar in Qing Dynasty, recorded in Notes of Yuewei Caotang that the stone beast in front of a land temple fell into the river due to the collapse of the riverbank. Ten years later, the mountain gate was rebuilt to look for stone beasts, but it was not at the original drowning person's place or downstream. A veteran said he wanted to look upstream, and as he said, he fished out the stone beast. Why do stone beasts "run" upstream? The reason is that the stone beast forms resistance to the water flow after falling into the water, which makes the surrounding water flow faster and stronger, and the sediment on the lower side facing the water flow is gradually washed away by the water flow and becomes a cavity. For a long time, the stone beast fell in the direction of water flow due to gravity, and moved upward repeatedly. It can be seen that the veteran's judgment is correct, and the erosion and handling of running water enable stone beasts to "sail against the current".

How did the universe come into being?

Since human beings have rational thinking, the starry sky has become a mysterious place of human concern. People often ask: What is the universe? How big is the universe? How was the universe born? What process did it take to become what it is today? What will happen in the future? ..... The infinite universe contains countless unsolved mysteries.

Our ancestors used many beautiful myths to explain some natural phenomena that could not be explained at that time. There is a legend about the origin of the universe: at first, heaven and earth did not separate, just like a big egg. In this egg, Pangu, the originator of the world, fell asleep. Pangu slept in an egg for eighteen thousand years before he grew up. Once Pangu stretched his leg and the eggshell hurt his toe. He woke up in pain and found himself surrounded. He was very angry, so he found a magic axe, aimed at a weak point and cut it hard. He cut and supported, and finally broke the eggshell with all his strength. With the loud noise of eggshell cracking, light things float upwards and become the sky, while heavy things sink and become the ground. Pangu, located between heaven and earth, changes nine times a day and is ten feet tall. After another 18 thousand years, the sky rose to the highest place, the earth fell to the deepest place, and Pangu grew to the end. Finally, he was exhausted and collapsed like a landslide. His limbs became mountains, his muscles became fertile fields, his blood became rivers, his tendons became continents, his teeth became minerals, and his fur became vegetation.

Myth is a myth after all. To solve the mystery of the formation of the universe, scientists have done a lot of research and put forward various hypotheses. In the 1920s, astronomer J.E. Lemaistre first put forward the view that the universe was exploded by a very small object. In the 1940s, physicist george gamow called the explosion "BIGBANG" and established the "BIGBANG" theory.

The Big Bang theory holds that our universe was originally a small fireball with extremely high density and temperature. If the earth generated now is compared to a table tennis ball, then the diameter of the sphere in the universe is like a football field. About 654.38+0.5 billion years ago, this primitive fireball suddenly exploded, throwing matter around and creating the universe. From then on, the universe began to expand, and the temperature decreased with the expansion of space. When the age of the universe is 10-44 seconds, the temperature is as high as 1032℃. After this moment, that is, 10-34 seconds later, the universe suddenly "expanded", just like an adult suddenly blew a big balloon violently, BIGBANG, and the explosion instantly expanded the universe 1029. 0.0 1 s after the big bang, the temperature of the universe dropped to1011℃; After 0. 1 s, the temperature drops to 30 billion degrees; 13.8 seconds later, the temperature further dropped to 3 billion degrees; In 35 minutes, the temperature has dropped to 300 million degrees. 300,000 years after the Big Bang, the temperature dropped to 3,000℃, and the universe began to become transparent, during which chemical elements began to form.

65438+February 65438+February, green plants broke ground; 12 On February 26th, more advanced mammals appeared; 65438+February 310: 22: 301500 million years, the universe has been expanding and the temperature has been gradually decreasing. At the same time, life was born and multiplied.

Just like drawing a map on a scale, someone condensed the evolution of the universe in 654.38+0.5 billion years in one year, which gave us a very intuitive and interesting "cosmic calendar":

65438+1October 10, the big bang, the universe stood out; 1 May, the vast Milky Way was born; On September 9, the solar system came out; /kloc-in September of 0/4, the earth was formed; On September 24, primitive life appeared on the earth; 1 1, primitive humans stood on the earth; In 23 minutes and 46 seconds, Beijingers created a fire; 23 minutes and 59 seconds, the history of China continued into the Spring and Autumn Period ... Song Dynasty; At 24: 00, the world entered the modern society that continues to this day. It can be seen that the history of mankind is only a very short moment in the universe.

The establishment of the Big Bang Cosmology marks that mankind has pushed open the door of the universe with scientific speculation and has become an important milestone in the history of human civilization.

1964, penzias and Wilson discovered the 3K microwave background radiation of "the remains of BIGBANG" in space with a radio telescope, which confirmed the correctness of "BIGBANG" theory, so they won the Nobel Prize in 1978.

In 1980s, the research team led by Ding Zhaozhong, the Nobel Prize winner in physics, built a super accelerator named "Lepo" in Switzerland to simulate the explosion of the universe. The circumference of the accelerator is 27 kilometers, and its huge body will extend from the plain near Geneva, Switzerland to the foot of Ziluo Mountain in France. All cables and machines are buried 50 ~ 100 meters underground. The research team put about 1 100 million volts of electrons into a particle accelerator and collided with the same high-voltage antielectrons. This billionth of a second impact will stimulate tens of billions of times the surface temperature of the sun, simulating the first moment when the world opened: the explosion of the universe.

1989 1 1 year 1 October, the United States launched the Cosmic Background Explorer (Cobe for short),1February, 2008, when COBE first explored deep space, it saw a perfect universe, with neither shape nor variation, and the afterglow of the Big Bang was magnificent. "Cobb" confirmed that the universe began with a violent big bang and expanded evenly, cooling to its present state. American scientists have recently observed a cloud cluster 65.438+0.5 billion light years away from the Earth, which is the largest and most distant celestial body ever observed. The appearance and existence of these clouds were caused by the Big Bang. NASA's Cosmic Background Detector (COBE) also found the remnants of the original fireball when the universe was born. The latest results of the team show that the Big Bang cosmology has passed the most severe test.

What happened to Baiyangdian?

Baiyangdian, located in the middle of the beautiful Hebei Plain, is a natural lake with vast waters, beautiful scenery and rich products. In addition to carp, prawn, crab, lotus root, water chestnut, water chestnut, reed and other aquatic products, it is also rich in preserved eggs, a well-known flavor food at home and abroad, which are exported to all parts of the world. Known as "the south of the north" and "the land of abundance in the north", Baiyangdian has developed into a good place for sightseeing with the development of tourist attractions and the continuous improvement of facilities in recent years.

Baiyangdian has a glorious history. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Baiyangdian provided a water guerrilla war field for our anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians with its unique reeds and lotus flowers. Yanling Team is a water guerrilla active in the reeds of Baiyangdian Lake. Under the cover of dense lotus flowers and reeds, the team members dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese invaders and made great contributions to the establishment and development of Baiyangdian anti-Japanese base area. The local people enthusiastically sang: "The Yanling team is a magic weapon. It has come and gone without a trace. It has set up a battlefield on a thousand hectares of land in Tang Wei, specializing in ghost fighting." In addition, the story of Xiao Jieyu in China textbooks and the movie Private Zhang Ga also happened here.

However, who would have thought that this place, which is beautiful in water, fat and grass, and full of wild ducks and lotus roots, was completely unrecognizable from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. Baiyangdian was lifeless, the lake was rapidly shrinking, and the beaches around Baiyangdian were desolate. The water is worse. The thick reeds of the past are gone, and so are the lotus flowers all over the lake. Pieces of dead fish are floating on the water with their white bellies exposed, stinking, and the dying fish are panting with their mouths open, as if calling for help: save us, save Baiyangdian on which we live!

After the reform and opening up, the experience of Baiyangdian was highly valued by the central leadership, and relevant personnel of Hebei Academy of Sciences and Hebei Normal University were immediately assigned to find out the reasons as soon as possible. It is found that the closure of the upstream reservoir is the main reason for the water surface shrinkage, and the waste water and waste residue from the surrounding factories is the fundamental reason for the pollution of Baiyangdian Lake. For example, the wastewater discharged by Baoding Film Factory, Weaving and Dyeing Factory, Coking Factory and township enterprises around Yangdian Lake all flows to Baiyangdian Lake, causing serious pollution to Yangdian Lake.

When human beings care for the natural environment, they naturally return the most beautiful and best things to human beings. If human beings do not protect the natural environment, they will naturally retaliate against human beings. We should be inspired by this story, understand the importance of protecting the environment, and know that as citizens of China, we have the responsibility to keep the sky of the motherland clean and the rivers of the motherland flow forever.

An unforgettable night

Titanic was once proudly called "unsinkable ship" in the history of world navigation, equivalent to the length of three and a half residential buildings, and was praised as "the city on the sea" by the European and American press. 191April 15, it was carrying 2207 passengers and crew on its maiden voyage and collided with the same floating iceberg for only 12 seconds, resulting in the tragedy of 15 13 passengers being killed. This brilliant maiden voyage brought it the bad luck of being buried at the bottom of the sea.

Titanic set sail for new york from Southampton, England on April 19 12. The wealthy businessman Dajia and British and American celebrities who boarded the ship want to spend a wonderful week on this brand-new miracle ship. Below the deck, there are hundreds of immigrants living in the lower cabin. They want to cross the Atlantic and start a new life on the other side.

The first few days passed safely, but on the fourth day, the operator received an emergency telegram from the ship sailing ahead, reminding them that the iceberg was floating abnormally south and had reached the nearby sea area. On Sunday, April 14, Titanic received an urgent telegram with the same content. However, these warnings were not taken seriously by the arrogant crew. The first alarm was thrown aside and was not reported to the captain for several hours. The next two times were never sent to the command room. Just after dusk, the temperature began to plummet. Although the signs of iceberg approaching are very obvious, Titanic neither changed course nor slowed down.

After nightfall, Captain edward smith began to look for icebergs. At 23: 40, the lookout first found the iceberg, and the duty officer ordered a sharp turn to the right chord. But it's too late. The iceberg knocked the outer wall of the ship's string open a gap 100 meter long. Most passengers only felt a slight vibration, which hardly attracted anyone's attention, but the engineers on board decided that the ship was hopeless after inspection. They think that if there are only four water tanks on board 16, the ship can still float on the water, but unfortunately, the outer walls of the five bottom tanks are torn by icebergs. Most of the passengers in the third class got up because the floor of their room had been flooded by the sea. The operator uses Morse code to send out the latest SOS distress signal, which is the first time to use this signal in a shipwreck. At midnight 12: 05, according to the captain's order, the lifeboat began to launch.

Passengers don't know that all lifeboats have only 1 178 seats, which can only accommodate half of the total number of people, but according to the laws at that time, this life-saving condition is quite sufficient. At first, the passengers did not panic. They don't believe there will be any danger at all, because the Titanic is unsinkable! It was not until the hull tilted dangerously that they lost their previous composure. Women and children leave the ship first. The first-class passengers boarded the lifeboat first, and only four women were killed in the shipwreck. Of the 272 women in second class and third class, only 96 survived. At one time, the door of the third-class cabin leading to the deck was even locked to prevent the passengers below from rushing onto the deck. On the increasingly inclined deck, the band has been playing the music of the mob.

At 2: 40 in the morning, the Titanic almost stood upright in the water, and then plunged into the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of 3,000 meters. The immigrants who stayed in the dark cabin were buried at the bottom of the sea with the Titanic, and all the people on the deck were thrown into the cold sea, which became the funerary objects of the famous shipwreck in this ice sea.

The iceberg that led to the sinking of this luxury ship is actually not a mysterious thing, but a huge piece of ice floating in the polar waters. Every spring and summer, it is formed by the rupture of polar ocean ice due to rising temperature, and gradually disappears when drifting to temperate and tropical regions. Their size varies greatly, and large icebergs can reach several kilometers long. Such a behemoth is a great threat to maritime navigation.

The sinking of Titanic shows that the power of nature is enormous, and human beings must not be blind and arrogant. We must pay enough attention to various natural phenomena, otherwise tragedy will be inevitable.

Bet on traveling around the world

Filias Fogg is an English gentleman. He is a member of the Reform Club. One day, Mr. Fogg said that he could travel around the world in 80 days, but other members of the club said it was impossible, because at that time, if he wanted to travel around the world in 80 days, he had to get on the boat as soon as he got off the train, and then get on the bus immediately without any accident on the way. Because these 80 days do not include bad weather, headwinds, ship accidents, train derailment and other emergencies. However, Mr. Fogg made a bet and six parties signed it. Finally, Mr. Fogg said, "Today is Wednesday,10.2, 1872. I should be back in London at 8: 45 pm on Saturday, February 2 1 Sunday. Gentlemen, I'm leaving. When I come back, you can check my travel route according to the local visa stamp on my passport. " In this way, Mr. Fogg set out from London, passed through Europe, Africa, Asia and America, overcame numerous natural and man-made disasters with firm will, and finally returned to London at 8: 50 pm on 1872, 12, 2 1. Unfortunately, five minutes later than the scheduled time, he went home quietly.

The next night, Mr Fogg asked his faithful servant Passepartout to ask the priest to marry him and Aouda tomorrow. But the priest said that tomorrow is Sunday and there will be no wedding. After confirming that the priest was right, Passepartout returned to the house as soon as possible, grabbed the owner by the collar and dragged Mr. Fogg into a carriage like crazy ... When they appeared in the club hall, the clock was pointing to 8: 45 ... He won.

So, did the shrewd Mr. Fogg miscalculate the date? No, it was Mr. Fogg who "unconsciously" used the 24 hours of his trip. This is because the direction of his travel has always been to the east, and on the way to the east, he has been marching in the direction of the rising sun. So whenever he walks through the one-degree meridian like this, he will see the sunrise four minutes in advance. The whole earth is divided into 360 degrees, multiply it by 360 in four minutes and divide it by 60 points. The result was exactly 24 hours, which is why he made a day unconsciously.

If there was a date line at that time, Mr. Fogg crossed the date line from west to east. If one day was subtracted from the date, the thrilling scene would not appear. As a matter of fact, Mr fogg arrived in London a day earlier.

A "lost" day

/KOOC-0/5/KOOC-0/9 September/KOOC-0/2, Spanish navigator Magellan left Sanluca Harbor with salute and cheers, and set sail to the west, thus beginning the global travel in human history.

The fleet bypassed the southern United States and entered the Pacific Ocean. The crew fought against the wind and waves, cleverly avoided reefs and shoals and headed west.

On this voyage, one ship slipped away and three ships were buried at the bottom of the sea. Magellan himself died in a battle on April 27th, 152 1. The only remaining ship, the Victoria, is still stubbornly heading west under the command of Eli Cano. After three years of hard work, they overcame unimaginable difficulties and finally bypassed Africa and successfully reached Cape Verde Islands. Because they will return to Spain soon, Eli Cano took out his diary and wrote on it: "1522 arrived in Cape Verde on July 9". Just then, an unexpected quarrel happened on the shore. The crew talked to the islanders and said that today is Thursday. As a result, the residents on the island corrected: "No, today is Friday." The crew was surprised and said to the residents of the island in unison, "You know, today is the 9 th." "No, today is 10!" Residents are more convinced.

When the priests learned about it, they lost their temper and accused the sailors of committing religious unforgivable crimes. Because they remember the wrong day, they must have made a mistake in the religious festival at sea and ate meat on the day when they should fast, which is unforgivable for devout believers.

However, the crew did not admit their mistakes. They swore, "I remember the date correctly."

Eli Cano opens his diary and does keep it every day. He hasn't missed a day. So, how did the difference of this day come about?

It turns out that the difference of this day contains scientific principles that they don't know. Because the earth rotates from west to east, its regular rotation causes a 24-hour period every day anywhere on the earth. This cycle only applies to objects that are stationary or moving in a small range relative to the earth. For people who do long-distance sports in the latitude direction of the earth, a day is no longer 24 hours, that is, it is slightly longer or shorter than 24 hours. The navigator sailed from west to east, and the earth kept spinning from west to east. It seems that they have been chasing. So the night always comes later than the day, which is equivalent to extending the day on the boat. If you sail against the earth's rotation, the daytime time on board will be shortened accordingly. According to the calculation, every day on the Victoria is about two minutes longer than 24 hours. These two minutes are nothing compared with 24 hours. Besides, there was no accurate timing instrument at that time, and most people didn't realize it. However, they have been sailing on the ship for more than three years, and these thousands of minutes are enough to make up for a day, so the crew unconsciously lost this day.

In order to prevent long-distance voyagers from getting the date wrong, experts with modern scientific knowledge drew a "time starting line" on the earth to distinguish today from yesterday. This is the "international international date line". Specially chosen near the sparsely populated meridian 180 degrees, between Asia and the United States. It starts at the North Pole, crosses the Bering Strait, crosses the Pacific Ocean and ends at the South Pole. In order to avoid some islands, it is somewhat curved. General international international date line are marked on the map. When ships and planes cross this line, they must strictly abide by the following regulations: when crossing this line from west to east, it shall be counted twice on the same day. For example, you cross this line from west to east on the 5th of a month, and the 5th is the next day. If you cross the line from east to west, you will have to skip the day. That is, tear another one from the calendar of the day. /kloc-the crew of the Victoria in the 6th century had an unprovoked quarrel with the people on the island because they didn't understand scientific principles.

The legend of northeast ginseng

A long time ago, it was said that there were many ginseng growing on Mengshan Mountain in Yimeng Mountain area in the southeast of Shandong Province, where the mountains and rivers were beautiful and the scenery was beautiful. Two of them lived for thousands of years and became spiritual. They become ginseng dolls and often play in the mountains at night. On a bright moonlit night, I saw them on the mountain. They were a man and a woman, chubby with white beard and a dazzling red pocket around their waist. They were very cute.

One day, a "black-hearted" monk who came from afar for alms learned about this and wanted to catch a ginseng doll, so he rode a donkey and took two young monks, Qingfeng and Yue Ming, to Mengshan and built a small temple named Mingshan Temple. After he came, he didn't mind chanting, sleeping during the day and wandering around the mountains at night. These two young monks cut wood, cook, mow grass and feed donkeys during the day. In the evening, they eat rice until late at night, eat leftovers and wear rags, and often get beaten and scolded.

One night, the black-hearted monk went out to look for it again. The breeze and the bright moon are beating the rice. I saw a man and a woman standing outside the door and two white fat dolls with red pockets. They said timidly, "Do you want us to help you cook?" Both the breeze and the bright moon were worried about rice, so they agreed, and the four of them ate up the rice in a short time. From then on, whenever the black-hearted monk went out at night, the two dolls came to help with the work, and then they played together, talking and laughing, very happy.

One night, the black-hearted monk came back early and found the ginseng doll playing in the house. He gently pushed open the door and grabbed it, but the ginseng doll disappeared immediately. The black-hearted monk rolled his eyes and said to Qingfeng and Yueming, "I will give each of you a needle with a red thread." When the fat dolls come again, they secretly pin the needles on their red pockets and loosen the thread. Then, you two can play with them often. " The breeze and the bright moon are true and happy for midnight. In the evening, two fat dolls came. They played with the fat doll for a while. According to the instructions, they took off the needle and loosened the thread.

The next morning, the black-hearted monk got up early and searched along the winding red line. It was not until the evening that he dug up the ginseng doll in the depths of the forest. The "black-hearted" monk was secretly happy: "Hey, I'm going to be reborn as an immortal ..."

He quietly came to the kitchen, put the ginseng doll in the pot, and moved a big stone to press it on the lid. Call Qingfeng and Yueming and say, "You two just light the fire and don't drive it, or you'll both die." Then I went to take a shower and change clothes.

Just as the breeze and the bright moon lit, suddenly a strange smell floated out of the pot, and I heard it shouting, "Help us." They looked at each other, got up the courage to lift a stone and open the lid. "ah? It's those two fat dolls. " The breeze and the bright moon knew that they had been cheated. They are desperate to get their two good friends out and let them escape from the backyard. When they left, the two dolls gratefully stuffed each person with an unknown mountain fruit and told them, "When in danger, put it in your mouth." They disappeared in an instant.

After a while, the "black-hearted" monk came back and found that the cool breeze and bright moon had let the ginseng doll go, so he took Vitex negundo to whip it. The breeze and the bright moon quickly put the small fruit into their mouth, only to feel light and feet off the ground. They quickly grabbed the reins of the donkey tied to the laurel tree. Unexpectedly, the donkey and the laurel tree also rose to the sky, and the stones and dirt carried by the roots fell down, hitting the head of the "black-hearted" monk. Suddenly, my brains were smeared all over the floor, and my life was at stake.

The breeze and bright moon rose to the ninth heaven, and was sent by the Queen Mother to Yuanzi, Xianren Town, Wuzhuangguan, Wanshou Mountain, as a fairy guarding the "ginseng fruit"; The donkey wandered in the sky and happened to be met by Zhang. He took it as a mount. Osmanthus fragrans was stopped by Chang 'e and planted in front of the Moon Palace. On a clear moonlit night, we can still see the shadow of osmanthus trees on the moon!

The ginseng dolls who escaped from the tiger's mouth, unwilling to continue living in Mengshan for a long time, left Yimeng Mountain with their families and moved to the northeast forest, where they settled down and thrived.

Although this story is a folk myth, the medicinal value of Northeast Ginseng is well known to women and children. Facts have long proved that wild animal and plant resources are human friends and precious wealth, and we must strictly protect and make rational use of them.

Cowherd, Weaver Girl and Star Map

According to folklore, the weaver girl descended to earth and lived a free life with the cowherd. After hearing the news, the Queen Mother forcibly brought the Weaver Girl back to the Heavenly Palace, and the Cowherd chose a son to chase the sky. The cruel queen mother separated them with gold hairpin. Looking up at the night sky, Vega in Lyra and two nearby dark stars form a triangle, much like a woven shuttle. Altair in Aquila and two dark stars form a "one" shape, like a cowherd carrying two children with a pole. The direction of the Milky Way is perpendicular to the connection between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, just like separating them on both sides of the river. After listening to this story and observing the starry sky, students can easily identify these two stars and several constellations.

Burning gourd valley and whirlwind

In the later period of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang made a northern expedition to the Central Plains and visited Qishan six times. Sima Yi and Wei Jun were once trapped in Huluyu. There are fires all over the mountain, trying to burn all the enemies to death. Sima and his son couldn't escape this fate, crying to die. Unexpectedly, a sudden heavy rain doused the mountain fire, and Sima survived. In fact, the rain was not "providence", but Zhuge Liang himself. The raging fire caused the air near the mountain area to heat up and the air pressure to decrease. Cyclone is formed in the low pressure area, and it rains in the center due to the rising, cooling and condensation of air. That is to say, there was cyclone rainfall in Huluyu. Although Zhuge Liang is familiar with astronomy and geography, he lacks modern scientific knowledge and doesn't know what a cyclone is.
