Ancient Chinese Myths and Stories Pangu, Nuwa, Fuxi, Shennong, Youchao, Suiren, Yandi, Huangdi, Chiy

In ancient times, there were more than N male gods and goddesses. If you regard the ancient period as a circle, among them, the C god must be Pangu. As long as you talk about ancient Chinese myths, you will definitely mention that Pangu created the world without him, and all subsequent legends would not exist in the chaotic period. The sky and the earth are like a huge egg. There is no sound, no light, and it is pitch black. Pangu was conceived and grown inside, and lived like this for 18,000 years. This kind of life with nothing was really depressing. Finally, one day, Pangu couldn't take it anymore. I took a huge ax and cracked the egg hard, and everything inside rushed out, floating up lightly, forming a sky-heavy fall, and the surrounding area of ​​the earth instantly opened up, but the sky and the earth were still far apart. Soon, it may merge again at any time. Pan Gu is a very persistent person, so he does nothing but hold up the sky with his hands and press down on the ground. Since then, he has grown together with the sky and the earth. In this way, another 18,000 years have passed between the sky and the earth. Separated by an infinite distance, Pangu was also stretched into a super giant. After standing for more than 10,000 years, Pangu was too tired. Finally, due to exhaustion, he collapsed and died. Before he died, he left a large portion of the world. Pangu’s exhaled breath turned into wind and clouds, his voice turned into thunder and lightning, his left eye turned into the sun, his right eye turned into the moon, his 40 00:01:20.551 --> 00:01:21.930 blood turned into rivers, lakes and seas, his hair and beard turned into stars, his skin and fine hair turned into flowers and plants Trees, teeth, and bones also turned into metal ores, and everything in the world was formed from then on, but at this time there were no human beings, and we had to start with this super goddess, 52 00:01:43.771 --> 00:01:47.310 she just swam up and down this empty land to pass the time. One day she wandered to the bank of the Yellow River and saw her own reflection in the river. She had an idea and started playing with mud and water. She squeezed one. A villain like myself blows on the clay figurine, and the clay figurine becomes a small thing that can talk, dance, sing, and walk. Human beings appeared so unexpectedly. Nuwa loves her new toy so much that she keeps pinching it. I created a lot of human beings, but all things are born and die. Human beings will naturally age, sick and die. Nuwa thought how tiring I have to keep pinching people all the time ! So she divided human beings into male and female and let them Marriage, marriage and raising children have finally realized the fully automated mass production of human beings. Since then, human beings have multiplied on the earth. From this point of view, Nuwa can be regarded as the earliest matchmaker in the world, so Nuwa is also regarded as the god of marriage among the people. Human Nuwa also mends the sky and mends the sky. It starts with these two people. The god of fire, Gonggong and the god of water, Zhurong. Once you hear their names, you can tell that the relationship between them is not very good. They often fight for a day. But Zhu Rong turned around and ran away, you said run, he even sabotaged Gonggong, ran to the side of a mountain in the west and bumped into it. This mountain is called Buzhou Mountain. 91 00:03:00.841 --> 00:03:03.420 pieces, the sky tilted down, and a huge hole appeared. Countless stars fell from the hole. The earth shook violently and the flood flooded the sky. At that time, human beings were still very fragile. How could they stand up to such a toss ? Seeing that the people she worked so hard for were destroyed in this way, Nuwa 101 00:03:22.171 --> 00:03:24.150 melted the stones into glue with fire, and used these colorful glue to fill the big hole in the sky. After it was done, she found a huge tortoise and cut off its four legs to make a new Optimus Prime, propped up the sky again, and finally restored the world to its original state. 110 00:03:41.131 --> 00:03:41.700 actually Nuwa and Fuxi, they are siblings and husband and wife. Fuxi is a great inventor. Human beings have to eat after being created by Nuwa! The earliest human beings used to catch fish with their hands and harpoons, which was time- consuming and labor-intensive. One day, when Fuxi watched a spider weaving a web, he realized that if the rope was woven into a web, it could be used for fishing, right? Fishing net The invention greatly improved people's fishing efficiency. Fuxi also arranged knotted ropes and knotless ropes in an interlaced way, invented the mutual arrangement and deduction of gossip and gossip. It contains simple binary algorithms, so Fuxi also made mathematics. Huge contribution In addition, Fuxi also invented and promoted the breeding industry, formulated the calendar, and Nuwa jointly invented musical instruments such as the qin and se, composed songs, and collected natural fire to teach people to barbecue food. Fuxi seems to be definitely regarded as Edison in the ancient circle. 136 00:04:34.771 --> 00:04:36.450 but they use natural fire picked up by thunder, lightning, volcanic eruptions, etc. After all, it comes naturally, so it is full of chance, and fire is extremely difficult to preserve. It would 144 00:04:52.111 --> 00:04:52.560 so this great man appeared Suirenshi Suirenshi likes to travel. One day he came to a country in the west because the country is so far west that the sun and the moon can’t shine very far The dim Suirenshi passed by a forest here. It is reasonable to say that it should be very dark in such a national forest where no light can shine. 157 00:05:20.371 --> 00:05:23.040 every time he pecked at the tree trunk, fire came out. Suiren was inspired and invented the method of drilling wood to make fire. Since then, human beings have bid farewell to the dark age. With fire, the problem of eating is barely solved. But the problem of housing came again. In ancient times, there were 167 00:05:36.751 --> 00:05:38.790 lived on the ground or in caves, and they were often attacked and poisoned by animals. They might die in their sleep one day, and in winter. The climate is very cold and the living environment for human beings is really bad, so what should I do? If there is a problem, someone will definitely solve the problem. At this time, Youchao appeared. As the first real estate boss in ancient times, Youchao observed the birds in Build a nest on a tree and found that if you build a house on a tree, you can not only keep out the wind and rain, but also avoid wild animals, so he taught people to use branches and vines to build houses on tall trees. Humans finally lived a life with houses. There are houses and houses. After the fire, life seems to be good, but at that time the source of food was still unstable, and the food rations mainly depended on hunting or picking wild fruits. To put it bluntly, it still depended 193 00:06:27.961 --> 00:06:30.540 this time, there will be another great god coming on the stage. He is Shennong. One day, a divine bird flew over Shennong’s head and held some grains in its beak. These grains fell beside Shennong. Since these grains are divine Shennong, who had lost the bird, felt that it must be a gift from God. He was reluctant to eat it, so he buried the grains in the soil. Half a year later, a large area of 207 00:06:56.521 --> 00:06:59.160 and taught them how to grow these grains. The most primitive agriculture produced people who ate whole grains and inevitably got sick. Shennong also ate certain plants after animals were injured. 213 00:07:10.081 --> 00:07:11.880 and healed it himself. Tasting all kinds of herbs, he finally became the god of medicine. The myth has developed to this point. Human beings have passed the initial chaotic time, and the basic survival problems have been solved. 220 00:07:21.781 --> 00:07:24.090 two ancestors of civilization will appear on the stage. They are the two emperors of Yan and Huang. The two of them are the leaders of the two tribes in the Yellow River Basin, and each has its own territory. With the continuous expansion of their respective forces, the two bosses began to fight in order to fight for the territory. The two sides fought three times in Banquan. The two tribes formed the Yanhuang Tribal Alliance. At this time, there was a leader of the Jiuli tribe in Shandong called Chi You, Chi You was good at martial arts, he was bold, and he was young and energetic. He was dissatisfied with the small area he ruled, so he ran to Emperor Yan's tribe went to grab the territory. Emperor Yan couldn't beat him, so he moved the emperor to help, so Huangdi Chiyou launched a fierce battle in Zhuolu. In the end, Chiyou was defeated and killed. The Chiyou tribe joined the Yanhuang Alliance from then on. With the continuous expansion of the alliance's power, it gradually became The earliest prototype of China was formed. The emperor was good at fighting and his wife Luo Zu was not idle. Luo Zu invented sericulture and weaving, forming the earliest textile industry. Although silk cloth at that time was probably more expensive than diamonds now, he knew how to weave and tailor clothes. Civilization has indeed taken a big step forward. The Yellow Emperor also had a super powerful subordinate called Cangjie. Cangjie invented writing and writing, which is a stream of consciousness. The emergence of such things as stream of consciousness enabled the spread and continuation of human thought. In a fundamental sense, civilization has been pushed forward. A new height Although myths are not real history, each story is a reflection of the survival of ancient ancestors. Human beings have conquered nature and challenged themselves in the long years. 260 00:08:58.400 --> 00:08:59.700 Today’s ancient gods That's all for our story. In the next video, I'm going to tell a little bit of real history. Goodbye Xia, Shang and Zhou!
