Translation of "Wushan Goddess":

The river continues to flow eastward, passing through the Wu Gorge, which is the Du It was chiseled by Yu to dredge the river. Guo Zhongchan said: According to "Geography", Wushan is in the southwest of Wu County, but now there is Wushan in the east of the county. Perhaps this is because the address of the county seat is often moved and changed.

The river flows eastward through the mountain gorge and passes through Xinbengtan. In the twelfth year of Emperor Yongyuan of the Han Dynasty (100), a landslide occurred here, and in the second year of the Jin Taiyuan year (367) there was another landslide. On the day of the landslide, the river flowed back for more than a hundred miles, and the water surged up to tens of feet. Now there are many huge rocks on the beach, as round as rice baskets and as square as houses. They have all collapsed from the cliff, causing the rapids to roar and roar, so it is called the New Collapse Beach.

Compared with many other mountains, the stone peaks left behind after the collapse are still quite high. More than ten miles downstream is Dawu Mountain. This mountain is not only taller than the Three Gorges, it can compete with Minshan and Emeishan, and compare with Hengshan and Jiuyishan. The surrounding mountains are all high. Entering the blue clouds, only by climbing to the sky can you tell their height.

Dawu Mountain is the residence of Mengtu, the god of justice. "The Book of Mountains and Seas" says: Meng Tu, a minister of Xia Qi, became the god of justice in Ba. People from Ba came to Meng Tu's residence to complain. He only caught people with blood stains on their clothes and never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Have the virtue of living well. He lives in the mountains, west of Dan Mountain. Guo Jingchun said: Danshan is in Danyang and belongs to Bajun.

Danshanxi is Wushan. In addition, the daughter of the Red Emperor also lived here. She was the youngest daughter of the Emperor of Heaven as mentioned by Song Yu, named Yao Ji. She died before she got married and was buried in the south of Wushan. Her spirit turned into grass and formed Ganoderma lucidum. This is the so-called Wushan goddess who lives in the dangerous place of Gaotang. She is the floating clouds in the morning and the wandering rain in the evening. She is under the balcony every morning and evening.

Early the next morning, the King of Chu got up and saw that it was indeed what the goddess said, so he built a temple for her and called it Chaoyun. The gorge is one hundred and sixty miles long from the beginning to the end, and is called Wu Gorge, probably named after the mountain.

Original text of "The Goddess of Wushan":

There is a newly collapsed beach in the east of the gorge of the river. This mountain collapsed in the twelfth year of Emperor Yongyuan of the Han Dynasty, and again in the second year of Taiyuan of the Jin Dynasty. On the day of the collapse, the water flowed back for more than a hundred miles and surged up to tens of feet.

There are stones on the beach today, which may be as round as a basket or as square as a house. If there are many of them, they have all fallen from the cliff and caused angry turbulence, so it is called the new beach. The rest of the ruined rocks are still comparable to those of other ridges. More than ten miles below it is the Great Wu Mountain, which is not only found in the Three Gorges, but also has the peaks of Min and E, and the mountains of Heng and Yi, with its wings attached to the mountains and the blue clouds, and even to the sky, you can distinguish its advantages and disadvantages.

The so-called daughter of Wushan, the resistance of Gaotang, is like clouds in the morning and rain in the evening, morning and evening, under the balcony. If you look at it early, it will be as it says. Therefore, a temple was built with the name Chaoyunyan.

Extended information

Writing background: < /p>

The description of the mountains and rivers in "Shui Jing Zhu" has also been highly praised by future generations as a literary work. There are also shortcomings in the book: because he was from the Northern Dynasties, his records of the southern water system are a bit simple, and there are some errors.

Of course, such a magnificent masterpiece was limited by the times and conditions at the time, and it was inevitable that there would be many mistakes. Du You of the Tang Dynasty clearly pointed out his "mistakes" on the source of the Yellow River in his "Tongdian".

In addition, since it was impossible for him to conduct field investigations in remote areas and the south, there were more mistakes in this area. The citations in some places are not trustworthy, etc., but these do not damage the value of the book.

About the author:

Li Daoyuan (466 or 472--527) was a geographer and essayist in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The word is good and long. A native of Fanyang (now Zhuoxian County, Hebei Province). Born into a family of officials, he also served as a central official such as Lieutenant Yushi in Pingcheng (the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, today's Datong City, Shanxi Province) and Luoyang, and he also served as a local official many times.

He has been eager to learn since he was a child, is well-read, and loves to travel. He has traveled to Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Hebei, Anhui, Jiangsu, Inner Mongolia and other places. Everywhere he goes, he pays attention to the topography of water flows and traces their sources. Head, and read a lot of geographical works, accumulated a wealth of geographical knowledge. 2.

Answers to the classical Chinese reading questions of "Stealing Spring"

The translation of "Stealing Spring" is for reference:

One year, there was a severe drought, and Bianyi suffered from famine. There was no harvest, and the people were starving. The bark of the trees was peeled off and eaten up, but the government still asked for money and food. The government forced the people to rebel. A farmer named Liu Xiazi led a large group of people to Qinglong Mountain in the north of Bian City, where he occupied the mountain and became the king of the rebellion. They are so numerous that even the government can't do anything about it. While he was worrying, Confucius and his disciples came. Doctor Bian Yi talked about this matter. Confucius asked: "Why do the people want to rebel?" Confucius said: "Why do you collect so much money and food?" The doctor said: "I don't have enough money to spend, so how can I collect less? Anyway, it won't work without force!" Confucius said: "Is this still necessary to kill people? I'll call them down the mountain."

Confucius took only one disciple, Gao Chai, to the foot of Qinglong Mountain. Liu Xiazi, who was on the mountain, heard that Confucius' master and disciple were coming, so he sent someone to invite him up the mountain. Confucius said: "As long as you submit to the government, I will go to the mountain immediately. As long as you are still a thief, I will not go to the mountain." How could Liu Xiazi submit? We talked for a long time and couldn't reach an agreement. It was very hot at that time, and both Confucius and Gao Chai were very thirsty. Liu Xiazi asked someone to bring a bowl of water to his master and his disciple. Gao Chai was about to drink, but Confucius loudly stopped him and said, "You cannot drink this spring water!" Liu Xiazi was very surprised and said, "Master, this is the clear spring water on the mountain. Drinking it has only benefits and no harm. Why don't you drink it?" Confucius said: "The mountain is stolen, and the mountain is stolen! The spring of the mountain is stolen, and the spring is stolen! A gentleman will not drink the water of the stolen spring!" 5.

Shennu Peak has good vegetation and many fruit trees.

The seabed reefs and Quaternary glacial rocks from 2.4 billion years ago are dotted here and there, forming the beautiful Goddess Peak, a miraculous creation of heaven and earth.

It is located on the north bank of the Wu Gorge River about 15 kilometers east of Wushan County.

A huge boulder stands out among the clouds on Qingfeng, like a graceful and beautiful girl, hence the name Goddess Peak. The ancients said that "the peaks and mountains dominate the sky, and the foot of the mountain plunges directly into the river. The commentators said that none of Tai, Hua, Heng, and Lu are so strange."

Whenever clouds and smoke surround the peak, the human-shaped stone pillars seem to be covered with gauze, becoming more affectionate and charming. Every day, it is the first to welcome the brilliant morning glow and the last to see off the gorgeous sunset, hence the name "Wangxia Peak".

The twelve peaks of Wushan Mountain each have their own characteristics. Some are like golden dragons soaring in the sky, some are like lions with their heads raised, some are like girls standing gracefully, and some are like phoenixes spreading their wings, in various poses.

Wushan Goddess Temple There are twelve lush green trees in Wushan, and there are pavilions and pavilions called girls.

The mist at dawn suddenly opens, and the mountain flowers are about to wither like residual makeup. The stars and rivers smell clear on a good night, and when the clouds and rain return, they carry a strange fragrance.

Why are the gods in the nine heavens and the human beings coming to see King Chu Xiang? Wushan is located in the east of today's Wushan County, Chongqing.

Goddess Temple, there is Goddess Peak on Wushan Mountain, and there is Goddess Temple under the peak. When the poet visited the Wushan Goddess Temple, he was inspired by the legend of the Wushan Goddess and used it to imagine, so he wrote this poem describing the Goddess Peak.

Looking up at Wushan Mountain, the twelve peaks are all tall, beautiful and lush. However, one stone among them is called a goddess, which shows that it has its own unusual and supernatural qualities. Let’s start imagining this “piece of stone”.

In the morning, the mist dissipates, as if the goddess has opened a transparent tent in her boudoir. The mountain flowers that are about to wither in the late spring seem to be the remaining makeup that the goddess has taken off. When the night is quiet, the stars are brilliant and the moon is bright. You can clearly hear the sound of the goddess's ring when she goes out. After the wind and rain, you can clearly smell the fragrant fragrance emanating from the goddess's body when she returns.

The poet was immersed in this imagination, and was undoubtedly fascinated by the goddess, so he sighed at the end, why did the goddess come down from the nine heavens to the human world to date King Chu Xiang? According to Song Yu's "Gaotang Fu", when King Chu Xiang traveled to Gaotang, he dreamed of the Wushan goddess, and they met happily. The goddess said to herself, "During the morning, the clouds will move, and the evening will rain, morning and evening, under the Wushan Mountain." ". It ends with such a questioning emotion, which is both playful and leaves an endless aftertaste.

This poem about Goddess Peak uses imagination to win, and the imagination itself is gradually upgrading, which is quite unique. The beginning is very sober. The word "girl" means "piece of stone", indicating that it is a stone and not a girl. In the third and fourth sentences, the mist and flowers are imagined as "rolling curtains" and "remnants of makeup", but there are still "suspicious" and "like" Two words, five or six sentences go a step further, the sound of the jade and the strange fragrance have been clearly heard, and the last two sentences further interrogate them, and the Goddess Peak has been completely humanized.

It is in this gradual upgrading of imagination that the poet gradually merges into the realm of gods, and the poems also overflow with magical charm. 8. Urgent request
