What is the famous theme in ancient China that Kuafu's daily anger can't touch Zhoushan?
This is one of the earliest famous myths in China. It tells the story of Kuafu struggling to catch up with the sun and sleeping in Yuyuan. Kuafu, a giant in ancient myths and legends, is a descendant of Houdi, the god of the underworld, and lives in the Tianshan Mountains in Chengdu, a northern wilderness. He chased the sun with two yellow snakes in his ears and two yellow snakes in his hand. When he arrived at Yu Valley, where the sun was about to fall, he felt thirsty and went to drink the water from the Yellow River and Weihe River. After the river was drained by him, his thirst still did not stop. He wanted to drink the water from the great lakes in the north, but before he got there, he died of thirst. When Kuafu died, he threw away his staff, which suddenly turned into a peach grove full of fresh fruits, relieving thirst for those who later pursued light. Kuafu's myth of chasing the sun reflects the spirit of people's competition with nature in ancient times. The Book of Mountains and Seas records this myth and says that he is "overreaching", but Tao Qian in Jin Dynasty praised that "Kuafu's grand birthday is a race with Japan". Kuafu's fairy tales are mainly found in Shan Hai Jing Overseas North Jing and Wild North Jing. Liezi Tang Wen is slightly different in the details of turning a walking stick into a peach forest, saying that Kuafu "abandoned his walking stick and was immersed in resin paste and meat, and gave birth to Deng Lin". As for Deng Lin, according to the research of Bi Yuan in Qing Dynasty, Deng and Taoyin are close, and Deng Lin is the Taolin, which is called "Mountain of Kuafu, Taolin in the north" in The Classic of Mountains and Seas. The mountain of Kuafu, Hao Yixing said a Qinshan, is connected with Taihua, in Lingbao County, Henan Province. There are still some places whose descendants are famous for "Kuafu", among which there are many legends associated with Kuafu's pursuit of the sun.

" Shan Hai Jing Da Huang Bei Jing: "In the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain named Chengdu that carries the sky. Some people named two yellow snakes Kuafu. After being born, faith is born, and faith is born to Kuafu. Kuafu overreached himself, trying to catch up with the Japanese scenery, and caught him in Yugu. You will drink from the river but not enough, and you will go to osawa, but you will die here before you arrive. Ying Long has killed Chiyou and Kuafu, but he went to the south, so it is rainy in the south. " Liezi Tang Wen: "Kuafu overreached himself and wanted to chase after the sun. When you are in the corner of the valley, you are thirsty to drink and go to drink the river. River Wei is not enough, so we will go north to drink osawa. Before he arrives, he dies of thirst. Abandoning his staff, he was soaked in resin paste and gave birth to Deng Lin. Deng Lin is thousands of miles away. " [Edit this paragraph] Legend Story In ancient times, in the northern wilderness, there was a towering mountain. Deep in the mountains, there live a group of giants with infinite strength. Their leader is Kuafu, the grandson of Houtu, the god of the underworld, and the son of Xin. Therefore, this group of people is called Kuafu. They are strong, tall and burly, with strong willpower and extraordinary spirit. But also kind-hearted, hardworking and brave, living a life of peace and freedom. At that time, the land was desolate, poisonous animals and beasts were rampant, and people's lives were miserable. In order to make the people of this tribe survive, Kuafu led the people to fight against the scourge every day. Kuafu often hung the vicious yellow snake he caught on his ears as decoration, and held it in his hand and waved it proudly. One year, the weather was very hot, and the burning sun shone directly on the earth, baking crops, scorching trees and drying up rivers. People are unbearably hot, and Kuafu people are dying. Kuafu was very sad to see this scene. He looked up at the sun and told his people, "The sun is really hateful. I want to catch up with it and let it listen to people." After listening to it, the people dissuaded them. Some people say, "Don't go. The sun is so far away from us that you will be exhausted." Some people say, "The sun is so hot, you will be roasted to death." Kuafu has made up his mind and vowed to catch the sun and make it obey people's orders and serve everyone. He looked at the miserable people and said, "I must go for everyone's happy life!" " The sun had just risen from the sea, and Kuafu bid farewell to his people. With great ambition, he strode towards the rising direction from the East China Sea and began his daily journey. The sun is moving fast in the air, and Kuafu is chasing after it like a high wind on the ground. He crossed mountains and rivers, and the earth was rocked and swayed back and forth by his footsteps. When Kuafu was tired from running, he took a slight nap and shook the soil in his shoes off the ground, thus forming a big earth mountain. When he is hungry, he picks wild fruits to satisfy his hunger, and sometimes Kuafu cooks. He used three stones to build a pot, and these three stones became three high mountains standing on their feet, several thousand meters high. Kuafu ran after the sun and saw that he was getting closer and closer to the sun, and his confidence grew stronger and stronger. The closer you get to the sun, the more thirsty you are. It is no longer possible to quench your thirst by holding the river. However, he was not afraid and kept encouraging himself. "Soon, we will catch up with the sun, and people's lives will be happy." After nine days in kuya, where the sun set, Kuafu finally caught up with it. Red, burning fireball, right in front of Kuafu, his head, thousands of golden lights, bathed in him. Kuafu opened his arms with great joy, trying to embrace the sun. But the sun was unusually hot, and Kuafu felt thirsty and tired. He ran to the Yellow River and drank the water of the Yellow River in one breath. He ran to the Weihe River again and drank all the Weihe River water, but he still didn't quench his thirst. Kuafu ran to the north again, where there was osawa, and there was enough water in osawa to quench Kuafu's thirst. However, before Kuafu reached osawa, he died of thirst on the way. When Kuafu died, his heart was full of regret. He was still worried about his own people, so he threw out the wooden stick in his hand. Where the wooden staff landed, a large lush peach forest suddenly appeared. This peach forest is lush all year round, which provides shade for passers-by, produces fresh peaches, quenches thirst for hardworking people, and enables people to eliminate fatigue and embark on a journey energetically. [Edit this paragraph] Realistic implication Why does Kuafu want to catch up with the sun? Mr. Yang Gongji believes that Kuafu's daily story has profound implications. It shows that "only those who pay attention to time and the sun race can walk fast;" The faster people walk, the more empty they feel in their bellies, so that they can need and receive water (water may be regarded as a symbol of knowledge); Only the obtained water can compete with time and not lag behind time. " Mr. Yang's view was incorporated into the book China Literature, which was endorsed by many comrades. In addition, the writer Xiao Bing said in his book "Heroes of Fire Stealing: Kuafu and Prometheus": Kuafu collects kindling for mankind day by day to make the earth bright and warm. Kuafu is a "fire thief hero" and Prometheus of China. Mr. Xiao's view is quite romantic. Others regard Kuafu day by day as a struggle in nature, with Kuafu representing "water" and the sun representing "fire". The water god and the fire god contend, and water and fire are incompatible. Kuafu's daily story gives people rich imagination and profound enlightenment. How to understand this story is not only a concern of academic circles, but its positive significance lies in that people understand the world with their own different understandings and realize their own beautiful pursuit. Kuafu's intention to Kuafu day by day is actually a long-distance tribal migration in the history of the Chinese nation, and it is a courageous adventure. However, because their understanding of the operation of the sun and the geographical situation in northwest China is completely wrong, they finally failed tragically. In ancient times, any tribe has settled in a place for a long time, and its primitive and destructive labor will certainly destroy the resources there and tend to dry up. The decline of land fertility or salinization, the decrease of hunting and fishing range, and so on are inevitable, and the food and other materials available will only become less and less. In this case, there is only one choice, and the tribe must migrate to a new and better place. When Kuafu encountered this problem, he decided to go west to Yugu, where the sun set. This decision is incredible to modern people, because we know that the earth is spherical and revolves around the sun, and the sun will not fall into the earth at all, not to mention moving westward, either blocked by mountains or entering the desert, and there are not many places suitable for human habitation. Now that science and technology are developed, it is still difficult for people to live in oases well. As for intruders in ancient times, it is almost impossible to live. But for an inland tribe like Kuafu, it is normal to make this decision. The earth is spherical, the earth moves around the sun and the geographical situation in northwest China, and they know nothing about it. They may know at most from tribes near the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea that the east is the sea, from which the sun rises. As for the west, the end is Yu Valley, where the sun sets. The astronomical articles in Huainanzi are examples: the sun rises from the Yi Valley and bathes in the salty pool ... As for Kunwu, it means the middle, ... As for Yuyuan, it means the dusk, ... Moreover, the most commonly used words in modern Chinese still leave traces of ancient understanding of the sun movement. Such as "the sun rises and sets in the west", "sunrise" and "sunset" and so on. These words all imply the ancient idea that the sun rises and sets from the earth. Tribes in Kuafu should focus on agricultural production, and they must have realized that sunshine determines the seasons, agriculture and other production activities. Then, in the Yugu Valley where the sun sets, sunshine is the most abundant. For Kuafu people who are facing difficulties due to lack of resources, it is the best choice to move there. Unfortunately, they walked into the desert. In the desert, there are yellow sand dunes everywhere. During the day, it is very hot and very short of water, and the thirst is unbearable. According to the records, they found a river in the desert, and called the trunk of the river (Yellow River) and the branch of the source (Weihe River). This kind of river is a seasonal river, which is formed by the melting and gathering of snow and ice on the distant heights in summer. As time goes by, from summer to autumn, the temperature drops and the melting of ice and snow decreases, which will become shallow and dry up. When the Kuafu people found that the river suddenly became shallower, the water surface became narrower and the water volume was decreasing, they knew that the water source on which they depended would disappear. Do you insist on going forward or going back? Kuafu decided to leave some people in the oasis, while others, led by Kuafu, went north to look for osawa. It is very likely that they saw a mirage, but whatever the reason, the result is the same: going north or desert. The desert is harsh and boundless. During the trek, physical strength dropped rapidly and there was not enough water. Finally, Kuafu and his people fell in the desert. This is the actual situation in Kuafu's daily legend. In ancient times, human beings were able to survive at the expense of destroying the natural environment. Living in one place will destroy another. Therefore, migration and pioneering are more frequent. And Kuafu's day by day, due to his extraordinary courage, became the first time in the history of the Chinese nation to be remembered for the pioneering failure caused by insufficient water resources. Kuafu is an activity of a tribe, not a struggle between gods. The evidence is obvious: the previous record is derogatory, "Kuafu overreached", which is the comments of other tribes on their plans and results. And then a heroic dry cloud narrative was handed down by Kuafu people. In addition, if the rivers and Wei mentioned in these two records are understood as seasonal rivers in the desert, rather than the Yellow River and Weihe River, then both records are about the life of Kuafu people in the desert. Kuafu's failure made ancient people realize that it was extremely difficult to conquer the northwest. Since then, water, not war, has determined that the Chinese nation can only develop southward. For thousands of years, the south has been developed by immigrants, and virgin forests and barren land have been turned into prosperous towns, while the northwest is still sparsely populated. Can the site of Kuafu be excavated? Perhaps, only schliemann in China can do it. At that time, German schliemann, with his love for Homer's epic, financial resources and perseverance, finally turned what almost everyone thought was just a myth into the most exciting discovery in the history of archaeological excavation. [Edit this paragraph] Introduction to Shan Hai Jing Shan Hai Jing is an ancient book in China before Qin Dynasty. It is generally believed that it mainly describes ancient myths, geography, products, witchcraft, religion, ancient history, medicine, folk customs, nationalities and other aspects. Some scholars believe that Shan Hai Jing is not only a myth, but also an ancient geography, including some overseas mountains, rivers, birds and animals. There are eighteen volumes of Shan Hai Jing, including five volumes of Shan Hai Jing, eight volumes of Hai Jing, four volumes of Da Huang Jing and one volume of Hai Nei Jing, which is about 31, words. It records the information of geography, customs and products of more than 1 countries, 55 mountains and 3 waterways, as well as the landscapes of countries. Among them, the Mountain Classic contains most reconnaissance records of wizards, alchemists and temple officials in past dynasties. After long-term biography and compilation, it will be somewhat exaggerated, but it still has high reference value. Mountain Classics: Volume 1 Nanshan Classics, Volume 2 Xishan Classics, Volume 3 Beishan Classics, Volume 4 Dongshan Classics, Volume 5 Zhongshan Classics, Sea Classics: Volume 1 Overseas South Classics, Volume 2 Overseas West Classics, Volume 3 Overseas North Classics, Volume 4 Overseas East longitude, Volume 5 Overseas South Classics The deep meaning of Kuafu's walking stick turned into a peach grove, which enriched the connotation of the myth of Kuafu Day by Day with poetic imagination, not only for his skill.
