Seek the fairy story about the ancient flood?

Almost all the myths in the world talk about a period of great flood in ancient times. It is said that God sent floods to destroy mankind because of human crimes. First, let's look at the flood records. Sumerian flood legend says that Sumerians are an ancient people in the Middle East in 3000 BC. A large number of Sumerian cuneiform clay tablets have been unearthed in the desert area of modern Iraq, which records the myths and legends of Mesopotamia-there was an earth-shattering flood on the earth in ancient times. There is a magical record on the clay tablet: in the distant years, four gods ruled the earth together: the god of heaven, the great protector, the goddess of war and love, and the god of water. Among them, the water god cares most about human beings and is the patron saint of human beings. At that time, the earth was densely populated, human beings were constantly multiplying, and the whole world was full of noise, like the roar of bison, which made the gods unable to sleep. The great protector heard the noise of the world and said to the gods on the throne, "The noise of human beings is really harsh, which makes us restless." So the gods decided to destroy mankind. The water god has mercy on the world. He came to the palace, stood outside the reed wall, and told the king in the hall that there was going to be a catastrophe on the earth, and he had to build a boat quickly to save his family's life. He said, "tear down your house, build a boat, abandon all your property and run for your life!" " Don't cling to worldly things, the important thing is to save the soul ... Listen, tear down the house quickly and build a boat with a certain size and a balanced aspect ratio. Store the seeds of all the creatures in the world in the boat. "The king dare not neglect, immediately set out to build a big ship. Carry everything to the boat and store the seeds of all living things in the cabin. After the family boarded the ship, they brought cattle and horses, other livestock and craftsmen from all walks of life on board ... that day finally came. At dawn, a pile of dark clouds appeared in the sky. The god of the storm rode on horseback, and the thunder was loud, turning the day into night. For six days and six nights in a row, the storm and the flood roared at the same time, and the waves were rough and the flood flooded the whole world. At dawn on the seventh day, the storm finally subsided, the sea gradually calmed down and the flood began to subside. Looking around, it was silent, and the sea was endless, as smooth as the roof of the roof. All the creatures on the earth are drowned in the water ... they are surrounded by white water ... about forty miles away, there stands a high mountain in the water. The boat drifted past and ran aground on the hillside. The king tied the boat tightly to Nihill Mountain ... On the morning of the seventh day, the king opened the cage and released a pigeon. It hovered over the water for a while, but couldn't find any trees to inhabit, and flew back to the boat. The king released another swallow. It couldn't find a place to stay, so it had to fly back. The king released another crow. When he saw that the flood had subsided, he cried happily, flew around looking for food and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Surprisingly, these records are not the only written records handed down from ancient Soviet Union and America. There are similar stories in other clay tablets unearthed in Iraq, some of which are almost 5000 years old. 1922, British archaeologist Lundner Woolley began to explore the Mesopotamian desert between Baghdad and the Persian Gulf. As a result, he discovered the ruins of Ur, an ancient Soviet-American country, and the royal mausoleum of the city. Under this tomb, Woolley and his assistants found a clean clay deposit more than two meters thick. Where did this two-meter thick clean clay come from? Through the analysis and study of clay, it is shown that this layer of clean clay belongs to silt deposited by flood. Woolley believes that this discovery shows the ancient legend of Mesopotamia, and the great flood recorded in the Bible is a historical event that once happened. The flood in the Bible is a very clear record of the myth in the Bible: God, Lord, saw that the sin of human beings became more and more serious, and in the end everything he thought was evil, and he regretted making man, so he said, "I want to destroy all people and animals, insects and birds on the earth, because I regret making them." "But there was a perfect man named Noah who had three sons. God and the Lord said to him, "build an ark of gopher wood, build it in rooms, and then paint it with rosin." Then he told Noah how to build the ark, saying, "I want to flood the earth and destroy the whole world, and all living things on the earth will die." "I want to make a Covenant with you; You, your wife, son and daughter-in-law will all enter the ark; Take two living creatures, a male and a female, into the ark to save your life. Noah did as the Lord commanded, and after seven days, the flood began to flood. "The fountains of the abyss are cracked, and the windows in the sky are opened." It rained heavily for forty days and nights, and the water surface became higher and higher. All the mountains in the world were submerged, all life was wiped out from the ground, and the water was huge for one hundred and fifty days. Later, the water gradually receded, and the ark stopped on Mount Ararat. Then the top of the mountain appeared, and after a few months, the ground dried up. God told Noah and his family to leave the ark and lead all the creatures to breed in pairs after the robbery.

There is also a legend in Greek mythology that Zeus, the Emperor of Heaven, ruled the earth. When he saw that human beings were becoming more and more cruel and heartless, and that the law of the jungle and justice and etiquette were gradually leaving people, he said, "Human beings are the bane of the world. If you pity them and let them entertain themselves, they will immediately reproduce and become arrogant; If we punish them and make them suffer some disasters, we will certainly converge, but soon we will degenerate and do all kinds of evil; Therefore, it is better to destroy them immediately. " He called a meeting of the gods and finally decided that heavy rain would cause floods and drown mankind. Prometheus was punished for stealing human fire. He had a son named Ku Lin Kai who lived in this world with human beings. From time to time, Ku Lin Kai advised mankind to avoid being punished by God. One day, Gui Lin Kai went to Olympus to visit his father. Prometheus told him: "Zeus, the emperor of heaven, will soon flood all mankind." Please prepare an escape route. " Immediately after the forest went down, Ju Chi built a sturdy ship and put the necessities of life on it to take refuge. Sure enough, in a few days, it rained cats and dogs for months, and the flood flooded the whole land, even the mountains. A few months later, the rain stopped and Kikuilin's boat floated to the top of Panacas. Soon, the water gradually receded and the earth appeared again. But when I looked up, I prayed to the Oracle to tell them what to do. God said, "Cover your head and go to the hillside to pick up your mother's bones and throw them back." They guessed that mother was the earth and her bones were stones, so they picked up the stones and threw them back. Sure enough, a miracle happened. What Qi lost became a man, what his wife lost became a woman, and human beings reappeared on the earth. Before the legendary China flood in China, we must introduce Nu Wa. It is said that when the world was opened, no one was there. Nu Wa created chickens, dogs, sheep, pigs and horses on the first day of the first month. On the seventh day, Nu Wa made a small clay figurine out of loess and water according to her own appearance. She made it. Loess is made by the rich, and the rope is pulled by the humble poor. In order to make mankind pass on forever, she made a wedding ceremony so that people can carry on the family line by their own strength. ("Taiping Yu Lan") Picture Attachment: 02.jpg (2005-111:09,32.79k) According to China's myth, * * * workers will break mountains that can't last for days, and then roll the waves. In China's mythology, when it comes to the first flood, it refers to the workers and the Zhu Rong War. * * * Workers were defeated and crashed into isolated islands, but they were the pillars of indomitable spirit. After being smashed by * * * workers, it was broken, so half the sky fell, a big hole was exposed in the sky, and the ground was cracked into a furrow. Floods gushed out from underground, and billowing waves spread all over the earth and a piece of Wang Yang. In this case, human beings can't survive. Nu Wa, who made man, saw this terrible disaster, refined five-colored stones to make up the sky, broke the four feet of the big turtle to support the square, killed the black dragon to save Jizhou, and accumulated reed ash to stop the flood. Heaven makes up, the square is straight, the water is exhausted, and the world is resurfaced. Only cautious and kind people can survive. Although this fairy tale does not clearly point out that human beings were being corrupted at that time like other stories, it also tells people that only good people can be left behind and enter a new history. Another flood myth happened in the time of Emperor Yao. The Book of Books and Yao Dian say that Gun spent nine years in controlling water, while Historical Records and Xia Benji say that Yu left home for thirteen years. The flood lasted for more than twenty-two years. At that time, the land belonged to Wang Yang, and the people had no place to live. "Under Mencius Teng Wengong" said: "When Yao was born, the water was retrograde, flooding in China, the land of snakes and dragons, and the people did not lift it." The Book of Books Yao Dian also said that "the soup is only cut when it is full of water, and it swings magnificently around Hu Aishan Xiangling." It can be seen that this big flood ravaged the earth and the people were in dire straits. At first, he sent guns to control the flood, but he used the method of blocking to make the flood rise higher and higher. Nine years later, nothing has been achieved (see "Book of Books". Yao Dian, Nine Years, Success). Later, Yu, Gun's son, was sent to control water. Yu Shun was the Emperor of Heaven in the Yu Dynasty. Before Yu's flood control, the river god (a series of dead bodies) gave him a map of flood control. He changed the blockage into diversion and succeeded. The flood subsided, saved the suffering of all the people and won the love of the people. In the Book of Songs Da Mo Yu, it is said that "water will be given to you" (God warns mankind with floods), which explains the cause of this catastrophic flood. Throughout the dynasties of China, the king was like a handsome man in that dynasty, and his words and deeds deeply influenced the moral behavior of his subjects. Dayu was a noble king in the history of China, and his spirit of "going through the hall without entering" was most praised. Therefore, the people of China were saved in the flood at that time, which really could not be said to have nothing to do with Dayu's transformation of the folk customs of the whole country and society into simplicity and nobility. There is an Indian legend about the flood of other nationalities. An ascetic monk named Manu accidentally saved a small fish while taking a bath in the Ganges River. Fish told him that this summer's flood would destroy all living things and prepare Manu. When the flood flooded, the small fish towed Manu's big boat to a safe place. From then on, Manu's descendants became the ancestors of Indians, and Manu's book number was handed down by him. Babylonian mythology says that Bell was angry with the world and decided to send a flood to destroy mankind. God told an old man at the mouth of the river to choose a boat and get everything ready ... It rained for seven days, and only high mountains emerged from the water. Among more than 30 Indian nations in America/KLOC-0, there is hardly a nation without the myth of the great flood. The ancient Mexican document "Chimar Popoca's Drawing Book" said: "The sky is near, and in one day, people are extinct, and the mountains are hidden in the flood ..."; The holy book of Maya records: "This is a devastating disaster ... a big flood ... people are drowned in the sticky rain falling from the sky." Among the local people in the Polynesian islands of Oceania, there is a legend of a great flood, and even the memory of the sudden rise of the ocean is mixed. "Memories of Ancient Ancestors" The British ethnographer Fraser once pointed out that among more than 30 Indian races in North America, Central America and South America, each race has a myth with the theme of the Great Flood. Judging from such records all over the world, perhaps we can say that in ancient times, human beings did experience devastating floods. This same memory can't be a myth made up at will, so these flood myths are actually expressing the same historical truth. So apart from legends, what truth do these so-called myths retain? When modern people hear "myth" and "legend", they often associate the word "superstition". However, if you are willing to think from another angle, you may have a deeper understanding. Why do you think the ancients can tell such wonderful fairy tales? How come there are similar records all over the world? In this primitive period of human civilization, human beings are very backward. Don't say that there is no telephone or radio today. The communication between villages depends entirely on manpower, not to mention transcontinental communication. Long-distance communication was almost impossible at that time, so why do people scattered around the world have such similar myths and legends? Perhaps it is like this: in ancient times, human beings did experience devastating floods. Different races are scattered all over the world. Conan the Destroyer After the flood disaster, people re-established their own civilization. Think about it, a few human ancestors who survived the robbery witnessed the destruction of mankind with their own eyes, and when they were in a heavy mood, they would also record the scene at that time. What they want most is that future generations can learn from this. Recording and circulating in formal written language must be painful memories and lessons! So what do these ancestors leave behind to tell us? Synthesizing the descriptions of various ethnic groups, we find that the causes of the flood are the same. Human morality has been corrupted, and they have lost their due kindness. So God sent a flood to destroy human beings, and only a few kind people survived and continued. These survivors were directly warned of disasters by "gods", such as water gods and Sumerian gods, and a few people were rescued by bribery because they were a few people who believed in God and did what God asked. Therefore, even if prehistoric human civilization is developed, it will not be developed science and technology, but legends and myths. In fact, it is not difficult to imagine: after a painful lesson, human beings clearly know that no matter how developed material civilization is, it can't compete with disasters from the sky. Therefore, many people who stay behind, what their ancestors want to tell their descendants most, is the lesson of the great flood-if human beings want to live a happy life, they must pay attention to morality, otherwise God will not allow it. But these facts are often regarded as foggy legends and myths by people today. Apart from the fact that they happened too long ago, it is more important that people who believe in modern science do not believe in the existence of "God".
