Shanxi folk stories

Changzhi, called Shangdang in ancient times, is the place where myths and legends came into being. With Shangdang area as the center, legends and relics about Yandi Shennong's activities here are widely circulated and recorded. This thick Yan Di cultural circle also includes vast areas of Taihang and Taiyue, including Qin County. Zhong Wang Qing, a scholar of Ci Village in Qin County, made a textual research, and found that there were traces of Yandi Shennong's activities in Ci Village. According to Qing Qianlong's Records of Qinzhou, in the spring of the fifth year of Yongzheng (A.D. 1727), the court approved Qinzhou to build a fairy farm altar. In June of the sixth year of Yongzheng, Xiannong altar was moved to Qinglong Mountain in the eastern suburb, with a height of 2 feet 1 inch and a width of 2 feet and 5 feet. Three halls were built in the north of the altar to worship the god of Xiannong. This is a cultural facility in Yan Di officially built by Qin County. According to the Records of the Book of Rites in the Later Han Dynasty, Liu Zhao quoted the Old Instrument in the History of Han Dynasty and said: "Spring ploughing in the native land, the official temple is the first farmer. The first farmer was Shennong Yan Di. " There is a Licheng Mountain between Cecun Village, Shangguan Village and Hezhi Village in the west of Qinxian County, and there is Gu Wu Shenling Mountain in the east of Licheng, which is named after the Gu Wu Temple built on it. The age of this temple cannot be verified. In the northwest of Licheng Mountain, Jiulian Mountain (also known as Jiuli Mountain and Wushan Mountain) winds for dozens of miles. Jiulian Mountain is a branch of the Taiyue Mountain Department Funiu Mountain. Legend has it that Licheng is the city where Jiuli people live, and Jiulian Mountain is the place where Jiuli people fight against Yan Di people. Legends are legends after all. This area is surrounded by mountains and rivers, surrounded by hills, with flat terrain and warm climate. Since ancient times, it has been an ideal farming area, and it is also the only place that all previous dynasties passed from the central part of Jin State to Dali and Shandong. In recent years, stone knives, pottery pots and other relics of the Neolithic age have been discovered continuously. After Yandi people occupied Licheng, the territory of Jiuli people, it seems possible to "teach farmers to live in the valley for the benefit of the people". In order to praise and commemorate the achievements of the Yan Di family, people named this evergreen mountain Jiulian Mountain and used it as a temple to worship Shennong. The ruins of the temple of grain still exist. It also shows that Qin County is Funiu Mountain in the west of Qin County, and it is a cultural relic of Yandi's hometown. Qing Qianlong's Annals of Qinzhou quoted the Annals of Unification as saying: "The ancients saw the sacred cows hiding here, hence the name Funiu Mountain". Funiu Mountain is one of the main mountains in Taiyue Mountain. It starts from Wuxiang County in the north, Qinyuan in the west, Qinxian in the east, Guxian and Tunliu in the south, and extends to Qinshui Basin. There are Yangtou Mountain in the west of Funiu Mountain and Qinxian County, Tunliu County and Changzi County in the east from north to south. Funiu Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles and is full of Yandi culture. It is said to be a magical cow or a farmed cow. If you have any feelings for cows, it is that Emperor Yan tamed them and made them a historical and cultural pearl in Qinxian County-Wusu Village/s/blog _ 51063a41065438+. The origin of the village name, as the name implies, should be related to Yao. Legend: Yao went west because of something. When I arrived at Yaoshan Village, it was getting late and I stayed here that night, so later generations called this mountain village Yaoshan Village. With this beautiful legend, a more complete story is derived, saying: Yao and his party entered the village from the southeast entrance of the village, and it was dusk when they entered the village. In order not to disturb everyone, Yao quietly settled down; In addition, in order to investigate people's lives and geography of mountains and rivers, Yao, who loves people, can't rest. He went to the "Jiesheng Mountain" in the west of the village that night and left quietly before dawn. When people described it afterwards, they all said that Yao was in a daze when he came, but he was still in a daze when he left. In order to commemorate Yao's great kindness, people call Yao's entrance to the village "dizzy heaven and earth". Just like the name of the village, "dizzy heaven and earth" has spread from ancient times to today. In fact, whether Yao has been to Yaoshan or not has not been tested in history. According to historical records, Yao named his son the eldest son. After 4000 years, Yaoshan Village in Qin County, which is very close to the eldest son, is not excluded as the residence of Yao's descendants, and it is one of the residences where a family continues to multiply and grow. Or people after Tao, Tang, Liu, Wei, Du and Fan Ju Yao may live longer. What really made Yaoshan Village famous and brilliant for a period of time was because of another romantic legend: in the Western Han Dynasty, the high-impedance Liu Bang collapsed and the Lushi family was in chaos. The Prime Minister and Qiu * * * condemned this matter and made the king emperor, that is, the Chinese Emperor. This is mentioned in historical records. In the first year of Emperor Wendi, "General Zhao Bo was sent to meet the Empress Dowager", and he was escorted from Jingxing to Tongge into Yao Shanzhai and stationed at night. Queen Dou gave birth to a child that night, and gave birth to Liu Qi, the emperor in the later "rule of Wenjing". However, the queen had no milk. After asking the local villagers for help, she was told to send people to pick fields and valleys, go into the mountains to find the clear water next to the ancient temple and cook porridge for the queen. Sure enough, the queen's milk came down and the mother and son were safe. After a while, the queen's body recovered, and the coachman left Yaoshan and slowly headed for Chang' an ... Things were valued by the monarch, and this land was later named. From then on, the place to fetch water for the queen was called "Queen's Spring", and the temple was renamed "Queen's Temple". The "bronze porridge" eaten by the Empress is well known, and the Tanaka Valley ordered by the Empress is later known as "Qinzhou Yellow" ... Yaoshan Village, as the birthplace of the son of heaven, must have been prosperous, with dense population, active trade and prosperous market. Then, the origin of the "faint world" that appeared together with these place names is very likely to be passed down by the villagers. The result is to spread the truth from one place to another. The closest thing to history is that when Dou Taihou was in Yaoshan Village, dusk came, and the sacred objects were obviously fragrant, hence the name "Faint Heaven and Earth". No wonder some villagers are still arguing whether the "faint world" originated from Yao or Han Dynasty. It must have a certain historical origin. Legend and archaeology confirm each other, allowing people to further see the leisurely back of a mountain village.
