1. Selected folklore

When the Yellow Emperor lived, there was a man named Ning Feng who lived in a tribe by the river. His mother is a clay figurine. Ning Feng followed her to the kiln when she was three years old. He likes to pinch all kinds of pots and pans like his mother. Seeing that he was clever and eager to learn, his mother taught him the craft of kneading all kinds of pottery blanks. Year after year, the stars are moving. When Ning Feng grew up, the tribe sent him to burn pottery.

Ning Feng was infected by his mother, and he was very responsible for his work. He devoted himself to kneading and firing, but the pottery he fired always felt dissatisfied, either rough and clumsy or out of shape. Ning Fengzi said that he was sorry for the people of the tribe. Every day, except working in the kiln, he hides in his mud house, keeps away from outsiders, and even ignores his wife when she talks to him.

He just stays in the house gloomily, and every day his wife brings him back the food distributed by the tribe with a clay pot. Eating and thinking is better than eating. His wife saw him concentrate on making pottery, which made everyone thin and black. After dinner, she let him lie on the straw mat and have a rest. Strangely, Ning Feng couldn't sleep at all in the past, but today he fell asleep.

He dreamed that he stepped on colorful auspicious clouds and went to ten thousand countries. People from all over the world gave him a lot of pottery. Those crockeries are beautiful and unique in style, including sharp, round, square and covered, and painted with colorful patterns and various patterns, which make people see things in a blur. Only when they go to the Heavenly Palace will they know.

Ning Feng smiled happily and woke up with a smile. He told his wife his dream at once. The wife also said excitedly, "well, you might as well go outside and see more pottery from other tribes. Maybe you can make it."

That's what the word seal means. After listening to his wife's words, he quickly packed his bags. After learning of Ning Feng's plan, the tribal leader gave him a horse, and Ning Feng set off on a horse. It's best to seal it for a year or two. My wife looked forward to it, and finally she did.

He brought back a truckload of pottery, drilled in these pottery piles all day, observed, compared, sketched and painted, and took a plate of sand and mud and pinched it, without head or tail.

On this day, before dawn, he woke up his wife, and the two of them came to the kiln and the sand and mud in the dark. As soon as the mud was mixed, Ning Feng sat on the straw mat and fired the pottery blank. He pinched the plate for a while, but his wife didn't eat rice. The sun is overhead, and he is still working. His wife gently put a bamboo fence on him and looked at the pile of pottery blanks he pinched. She said happily, "Good! How nice! "

Ning Feng said humorously, "It's better than my dream!"

The blanks are made one by one and dried in the shade under the straw shed. When it was almost dry, his wife pedaled the wheel, and Ning Feng took the ceramic blank and ground it on the wheel. After polishing, Ning Feng and his wife used ochre to draw patterns on the blank. They don't draw simple figures and straight lines as they used to.

Ning Feng's wife is very clever. A bird is flying in the sky. When she sang, she drew a flying bird with a few strokes. A sika deer ran across the field, but it didn't run out of her hand. She let it stand quietly on the wall of the pottery basin. She remembered the fishing nets and carp caught by men and drew them on the pottery basin.

It's almost harvest season. Imagine the celebration of all the people left in the square after the harvest. She drew a circle of people dancing hand in hand on the pottery bowl, both men and women, lively and enthusiastic, and even Ning Feng praised her for her good painting.

Later, they drew a set of deformed patterns, which didn't look very similar, but they were very vivid and interesting.

They also use nails to make prismatic nail patterns on pottery pots, print rows of twill with ropes, and sometimes make several circles of pile patterns and snake patterns on pottery pots. The most interesting thing is the handle of the can lid. They pinched the lid into the image of various animals. Birds have conical patterns tattooed on their heads, small animals are standing playfully, and there are heads with their mouths open and shouting.

After several days of hard work and several years of hard work, Ning Feng finally produced very beautiful pottery. These beautiful and practical pottery are not only loved by the people of this tribe, but also very popular when exchanged with other tribes.

The tribal leader presented the clay pots made in Ning Feng to the Yellow Emperor. Seeing such a round and delicate clay pot, the Yellow Emperor carefully appreciated the colorful patterns on it and repeatedly said, "Good, good! There are such talents in the world! "

The Yellow Emperor immediately sent someone to invite Ning Feng into the palace, inquired about the production of pottery pots in detail, and appointed Ning Feng as Zheng Tao, who was responsible for the pottery-making work throughout the country.

Since then, pottery has been making contributions to the world.

According to legend, Cang Xie was an official under the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor assigned him to be in charge of the number of animals in the pen and the number of food in the chariot. Cang Xie is a clever man. He tries his best and seldom makes mistakes. But with the change of livestock and grain storage, I can't remember it with my head alone. What shall we do? Cang Xie is confused.

Cang Xie thought of many ways. First, he tied a knot on the rope, using different colors of rope to represent different animals and food, and tying a knot with rope to represent numbers. However, it is very convenient to tie a knot on the rope to increase the quantity, and it is very troublesome to untie the knot on the rope when reducing the quantity. So Cang Xie put the rope around a circle again, and hung various shells in the circle to represent what he was responsible for. If so, add a shell; If it is reduced, a shell is deleted.

Seeing that Cang Xie was so capable, the Yellow Emperor gave Cang Xie the annual number of sacrifices, the distribution of each hunting and the increase and decrease of the tribal population. In this way, adding ropes and hanging shells is no longer a problem. Cang Xie is worried again.

On this day, he took part in collective hunting activities and found that people can judge what animals are in front by observing the footprints of underground wild animals. Cang Xie suddenly felt happy: Since a footprint represents a wild animal, why can't I use a symbol to represent what I am responsible for? He ran home happily and began to create various symbols to represent things. Sure enough, he handled things well.

When the Yellow Emperor knew it, he praised it and ordered Cang Xie to teach this method to all tribes. Gradually, the usage of these symbols spread. In this way, words began to form.

Cang Xie made a word, and the Yellow Emperor attached great importance to him. Everyone praises him, and his reputation is getting bigger and bigger. Cang Xie is a little conceited, looks down on anyone, and is careless in word-building.

The Yellow Emperor was very angry when he learned that, so he called the oldest old man around him to discuss. The old man is 120 years old. The old man hesitated for a while and went to Cang Xie alone.

The old man said to Cang Xie, "Cang Xie, your words have become a household name, but I am old and dizzy, and there are still some unclear words. Will you teach me again? "

Cang Xie looked at such a tall old man and respected him very much. He was very happy and urged him to speak quickly.

The old man said, "Do your horses, donkeys and mules have four legs?" ? Cows also have four legs. Why don't you create the word "cow with four legs and only one tail"? "

When Cang Xie heard this, he was a little flustered: it turned out that he had taught the words "cow" and "fish" backwards.

The old man went on to say, "The word' heavy' you created means that it is thousands of miles away. You should pronounce the word' out' from far away, but you taught people to pronounce the word' heavy' as weight. On the other hand, when two mountains are together, the word "Chu" should be the word "heavy", but you have taught it to be the word "Chu" when leaving home. These words really confuse me, so I have to ask you. "

At this time, Cang Xie was ashamed, and he knew that he had made a big mistake because of his pride. He quickly apologized and expressed his regret with tears.

The old man held Cang Xie's hand and said sincerely, "Cang Xie, you have created words, so that the experience of our older generation can be recorded and passed on. You have done a great thing, and people will remember you from generation to generation. You can't be arrogant! "

From then on, every time Cang Xie coined a word, he always scrutinized the meaning of the word and sought people's opinions. When everyone agrees, it is decided, and then gradually spread to every tribe.

The scenery in Guilin is the best in the world. Anyone who has been to Guilin knows that the cave is Qixingyan and the mountain is Laorenshan. The mountain faces the mountains in Guilin, facing north to south, like a dignified old man.

According to legend, Qin Shihuang recruited a large number of civilian workers to build the Great Wall in Wan Li, and the recruited civilian workers were miserable. The supervisor followed the civilian worker closely with a whip like a death warrant, urging him to pick and lift stones day and night, making the civilian worker bend over and sweat. Many people are tired to death and call for God's blessing, but God won't allow them. Call for help, the earth doesn't turn.

One day, the three kings of the East China Sea Dragon King mainly went to the South China Sea to visit fairies, hoping to take a dry road and see the world. She got up early in the morning, bid farewell to the Dragon King, jumped out of the Dragon Palace, drove a lucky cloud, flew into the sky and swam. Standing on the cloud, she looked down and saw thousands of civilian workers carrying stones under the Great Wall with bare arms. They were skinny. Therefore, she felt sympathy and pity, and secretly made up her mind to find ways to help civilian workers relieve their suffering.

Yincui gorge waved ribbons, urged Feiyun to swim to the South China Sea, pressed the clouds, walked into Putuoyan, met the fairy, and said, "Fairy, have a heart, save the poor civilian workers who built the Great Wall!" After hearing this, the fairy raised her eyebrows and replied, "kind yincui gorge, Qin Shihuang built the Great Wall to resist foreign enemies;" If you want to help the working people alleviate their suffering, I can give you a willow branch and drive the Rocky Mountains in the South China Sea to build a wall! " Yincui gorge was very happy to hear that. She took the willow branches, turned and walked out. Suddenly, I heard the fairy say, "Yincui gorge, I'll help you cut the mountain and build the wall." You should do two things as I say: first, don't covet to play all the way; Second, don't talk to mortals all the way. "

Yincui gorge quickly agreed. When she reached the South China Sea, she gently shook the willow branches into the sea. I saw the sea rolling, and the rocks and mountains jumped out of the water one after another. Some became tigers, leopards, some became camels, some became elephants, and some became golden roosters ... Yincui gorge was very happy to see these stones become birds and beasts. She waved the willow branches from the east to the west and drove them slowly towards the north.

Yincui gorge remembered the fairy's words and drove this group of animals and birds across the vast sea and Qian Shan Valley without stopping for three days and nights. By this time, she was exhausted and sweaty. She walked and suddenly came to a very beautiful place. A river here is as green as jade, and all kinds of flowers are in full bloom on the shore. Yincui gorge thought, there is such a good place in the world. Why don't I go to the river to wash my face, wipe my sweat, and then continue on my way? Unexpectedly, these tigers, leopards, camels, elephants, cranes and golden roosters run faster and faster. Yincui gorge was in a hurry when she saw an old man in a hood and a big robe coming out of the room. Yincui gorge said happily, "old man, I have been walking on the road for three days and nights." I want to wash my face in this river. Would you please look after these tigers, leopards, camels, elephants, cranes and golden pheasants for me? " My husband wiped his eyes with his public hand, looked carefully and replied, "Where are these tigers, leopards, camels, elephants, cranes and golden roosters?" They are obviously big bluestones! " The old man hit the nail on the head, and these birds and animals suddenly became the Rocky Mountains, and they couldn't walk any further.

At this time, Yincui gorge panicked, quickly pulled up the willow branches and beat them until she was so tired that she sweated, but Shishan still did not waver. Yincui gorge sighed and said, "Just because I forgot the fairy's words, I delayed the great event of saving all beings." After that, he bowed deeply to the old man and said, "Please look after these stone mountains for me. I went to the South China Sea to confess my sins. " Yincui gorge didn't expect the old man to suddenly become a stone mountain.

This stony mountain is Laorenshan. Around Laorenshan, there are many large and small stone mountains, some like tigers, some like leopards, some like camels and elephants, and some like cranes and golden roosters. The old man is still entrusted by Yincui gorge to take good care of them.

Once upon a time, there lived a young man named Zhou Cheng in Liuhe Bay. He lost his parents at an early age and was very lonely. When Zhou Cheng was eighteen, his kind neighbor married him a daughter-in-law, Pu. After the marriage, the two were very loving. Zhou Cheng works in the field, while Pu's family spins, weaves and does housework at home. They live a happy life.

I have been very busy this year. Zhou Cheng suddenly fell ill, with a sore throat, burning nose and mouth, and his neck was inevitably crooked when eating. Like many people in the village, people seek medical advice everywhere, but the result is that taking medicine is ineffective and praying for God is ineffective. Pu was very sad and cried all day. One night, she dreamed that she came to a high mountain called Mount Hua 'er. The mountains are full of flowers and fragrant smells. When she reached the top of the mountain, she saw a beautiful flower. It spreads out a cluster of green leaves with serrated edges, and golden flowers are blooming on purple stems. She was told that this grass is called Hongying. It can be used as medicine, and has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, reducing swelling and relieving pain. Pushkin couldn't help laughing happily. Pu woke up with a smile. It turned out that he had a dream.

The next morning, she told her husband her dream and planned to go to Huaershan to collect medicine. Zhou Cheng said after listening: "The Mount Hua 'er in the southeast has blisters on his feet and his shoes are broken. It has crossed ninety-nine rivers and bypassed ninety-nine bays. It's a long way, so you can't go. " "As long as I can find this herb, I don't mind the river bending, even if I walk on the Qian Shan, I will," bushel said. She packed her luggage and said goodbye to her husband and villagers resolutely.

After walking day after day, Pu was hungry, chewing dry buns, thirsty, wanting to drink water by the river, and tired of covering the grass with nectar. Finally, I crossed ninety-nine rivers and bypassed ninety-nine bays. One day, she walked to the foot of a mountain and saw a small room with an old lady spinning.

She hurried into the hut and asked the old lady the way. The old lady said, "If you walk 100 steps to the east, count 99 trees on the left and 99 trees on the right. Walk towards the tree in the middle and you will find the way up the hill. " According to the old man's instructions, Pu walked to the end of the hundred steps, counting 99 steps from the left and 99 steps from the right, and walked along the middle tree to the mountain. Soon, a road leading directly to the top of the mountain appeared in front of me. When she came to the top of the mountain, she saw a house in under the greenwood tree. An old man sat at the door, absorbed in reading. The old man is healthy and energetic. Pu went forward to salute, explain his purpose and ask the old man for advice.

The old man looked at Pu carefully and said, "This herb is called Gongying, and it will take three thousand years to be used as medicine. It is not easy for you to go through all kinds of hardships. Go home. "

Pu looked at the old man blankly and said, "Don't people have to wait three thousand years to treat an acute disease?"

After listening to Pu, the old man nodded and said, "Yes, if we don't wait 3000 years, patients will take this herb and herbalists will die immediately."

Pu said earnestly: "As long as everyone's illness is cured, I will die."

The old man listened, hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Since you have this sincerity, all right." As he spoke, he took out a golden flower from the room and handed it to Puyi, saying, "As long as you wear this golden flower, you can avoid death. Go and find it as you saw it in your dream. "

Pu thanked the old man, put on the golden flower and went straight to the top of the mountain. She reached the top of the mountain. Wow, there are flowers everywhere on the top of the mountain, and the green leaves are set off by colorful colors. With her own memory, she finally found the fairy grass-Hongying. She looked at her hometown with red grass in her hands, and two lines of tears were broken like pearls with excitement. She didn't want to stay on the mountain any longer, so she hurried down the mountain. The golden flower on her head also disappeared in the running.

Pu returned home, cooked a pot of medicinal soup and distributed it to the villagers in a big bowl. It only took three days, and the villagers and Zhou Chengdu were cured. Pu watched everyone's condition improve and closed his eyes with a smile. When people heard the bad news of Pu's death, they were so sad that they shed tears. Shortly after Puyi was buried, many Hongying grew on her grave, and later generations called it "dandelion".

It is said that during the Qianlong period, Qianlong liked to eat radishes. When the minister and Kun paid tribute to the radishes collected all over the country, officials collected them to please Qianlong. It happened that there was a drought in Sichuan at this time, and the crops in the field failed, but the taxes of the court were as heavy as usual, and the people in Sichuan were in dire straits. At this moment, a man named Liu Yong is anxious in his heart and is bent on reducing the burden on the people. When Liu Yong heard that the emperor was going to collect radishes all over the country, he took it to heart.

When Liu Yong came to Sichuan, he called local officials to issue the emperor's decree and collect radishes. Wanda Ren, a local official, said awkwardly, "Liu Daren, you know we have a drought in Sichuan. Now that the crops have failed, how can we pay tribute to the good radish? " Liuyong saw his embarrassed face and waved to him. Liuyong whispered a few words to him. I saw that at this moment, Wan's adult knelt on the ground in horror and quickly said, "Liu's adult, this is not good. If long live the Lord blames this, Xiaguan can't afford it. At that time, I am afraid that the people will suffer. " Liu Yong smiled: "Nothing, I will bear something, and it may also benefit the people of Sichuan." Adults seem to understand a little.

The next day, Master Wan found Liu Yong with a bag of things and said to him, "I picked this overnight. What do you think? " After unpacking, liuyong took a look. This radish is really small, all only the size of a finger. Liuyong chose a radish smaller than the little finger and smiled. "That's good, that's it." The adults still have scruples, "Liu's adult, is that ok? If the emperor really blames it, then the Xiaguan really can't afford it. "

"My Lord, that's ok. Don't worry, just wait here for the news. " With that, liuyong left.

It is said that on the day of tribute, the civil servants of the Qing Dynasty took out the radishes they collected in various places. It was really big and good. Among them, he Kun's famous carrots. When Qianlong saw these radishes, he smiled and said, "He Ai Qing, seeing the radishes you paid tribute to, I think it will be a peaceful and bumper harvest year."

"Yes, yes. Long live the ye such a monarch, of course, the world must be peaceful "and then patted flattery *, laughed. Ministers even claimed that.

At this time, it is time to pay tribute to Liu Yong. I saw Liu Yong holding a red box, which looked very beautiful. The tribute was given to Qianlong. Ganlong looked at it and liked it very much. He guessed that it must be a big radish, so he opened the box with it himself. Unexpectedly, there is an identical red box in the box. Gan Long doesn't know what medicine is sold in Liu Yong's gourd. Only continue to look down. After opening five boxes in a row, I saw that the boxes were only the size of palms. Ganlong opened it and saw a radish smaller than the little finger. Suddenly angry. "liuyong, this is your carrot." He Kun also said to the people around him: "You are a good Liu Yong, how dare you tease the emperor."

Liu Tang looked miserable and said to the emperor helplessly, "This time I went to Sichuan to harvest radishes, and there was a drought there. This is one of the radishes I selected from local officials. The local people not only have poor crops, but also face heavy taxes. Nowadays, people are eating grass roots, and after eating grass roots, they eat Guanyin soil. I have worked hard to collect this radish. " Hearing this, the Qianlong said, "It really has something to do with Aiqing. Didn't you just say that the world is at peace? How could this happen? Officials here, how can you solve the drought in Sichuan? "

As soon as this was said, Kun gave a "squeak, squeak" and there was nothing to say.

Liu Yong stepped forward and reported: "Long live the grandfather, the urgent task is to reduce taxes and allocate disaster relief funds to the court, which will certainly help them tide over the drought."

Civil and military officials even claimed that. Hearing this, Gan Long nodded: "Good, good. Through my wishes, Sichuan is tax-free for three years. Dial tattoo silver 1 ten thousand. Help Sichuan survive the disaster. "

The next day, Sichuan shouted everywhere: "tax exemption for three years!" "A radish in Liutang has won the blessing of the people, which has become a much-told story.
