Cowherd’s surname is Niu?

There have been too many incidents of pulling historical celebrities to my side in recent years. For example, Zhuge Liang had several disputes over each other, saying that this old gentleman was from their place. For example, Wang Yizhi was contested by others, Xu Fu was contested by others, and Qi Jiguang was also contested by others. Those who are fighting for places in every possible way are usually trying to use the light of celebrities to increase the popularity of their small places. It seems that it is not easy to criticize them too much.

Only in recent years, not only historical celebrities have been competed for, but even characters from folklore have become hot commodities. For example, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai had more than ten places vying to be their hometown, and Hua Mulan was also competing for it. Now we know that there are several families of Cowherd and Weaver Girl who are also fighting hard for it. They all want to make Cowherd a figure in their hometown.

There is a Niujiazhuang in one place, and they say that Niujiazhuang is the hometown of Niulang, and all the people in the village named Niu are descendants of Niulang. There is also Yiyuan County in Shandong Province. The government came forward and said that Niulang was from their county. Not long ago, "Qilu Evening News" published an article called "The Magpie Bridge flies across the Yi River and the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet", which viciously played up the idea that Yiyuan is the hometown of the Cowherd.

The article said that Niulang's hometown was called Niulang Guancun, that Niulang was called Sun Shouyi, and that 52-year-old Sun Qiwen was the 19th grandson of Niulang. It is said that all the people named Sun in the village are descendants of Cowherd.

At that time, I felt that this was not using evidence to prove that Niulang was indeed from Yiyuan County, but deliberately weaving a joke to make everyone laugh out loud!

The article clearly mentioned that the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl has been circulating for more than 3,000 years. Even if the Cowherd does exist, his descendants will definitely not be passed down for more than 19 generations. Because even if it is passed down to 20 generations, it will take an average of 150 years to pass it down to one generation. Where in the world can there be such people who carry on the family line from generation to generation?

Therefore, this alone is enough to prove that the people in Niulangguancun are 100% not the descendants of Niulang. Even if there is a so-called family tree, it must be forged to deceive people.

The story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is very clear. The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl had a son and a daughter. In order to catch up with his wife, the Cowherd carried his son on one end and his daughter on the other. They are still on the bank of the Milky Way to this day. . How could he leave any descendants in this world?

It is obviously impossible to say that the Cowherd is called Sun Shouyi. Shouyi means guarding the Yi River, or guarding Yiyuan County, in order to prove that the Cowherd is from Yiyuan County. And this just exposed the flaw. And saying that the Magpie Bridge flies over the Yi River is just a joke!

The legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is a myth, and everyone on this earth knows it. Now it is ridiculous to achieve a goal rather than to find any evidence in the world. If Yiyuan County wants to compete for its birthplace, it must at least make its case smooth, right? When a reporter writes this article, he must think carefully and not reveal so many flaws so that readers will know at a glance that you are lying.

In any case, it would look awkward for Niulang to be named Sun. At the very least, it destroys the beautiful image of folklore that has become a classic in our minds.
