On the other side, in the small courtyard of my deaf mother-in-law’s house.
Since Mr. Song left, the yard seems to have gotten a lot colder.
Wang San felt sorry for the children, so he put a thick cotton coat on each of Wang Qianyue and Liu Meina, and then sat next to them to tutor...watching the two little guys doing their homework.
At this warm moment, Wang San suddenly felt the changes in Didang Mountain.
The originally naive face suddenly showed a look of disgust, and he snorted subconsciously.
But as soon as he finished humming, the Jietian King regretted it - because Wang Qianyue looked over again with those big innocent eyes.
"Dad, did you get another question wrong? Tell me about it."
Wang San coughed repeatedly after being asked, and his resentment towards "X, Y" became a little more intense.
"Ahem, Xiaoyue, forget about the topic. Dad, let me tell you a story."
When she heard that she could listen to the story, the younger Liu Meina immediately put down the pencil in her hand.
"Third Uncle, Third Uncle, tell me quickly, I want to hear the story, not do my homework!"
Wang San was obviously a daughter slave. Hearing this, he smiled and put the two little ones on his knees, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Okay, okay, third uncle will tell you."
"Once upon a time, there was a guy named Zhuan Xu. He was the leader of a great lineage..."
Upon hearing the name Zhuanxu, Xiao Qianyue's eyes instantly became as deep as the stars and the sea.
Wang San didn't notice the subtle changes in his daughter, and kept talking to himself.
"This guy is really powerful. He defeated another great person back then and became the common master of the world."
"But so what? Zhuanxu's three sons...haha!"
Some arrogant Emperor Jie Tian just smiled and did not continue talking, which made Liu Meina anxious.
"Third uncle, don't just laugh. What happened to his three sons?"
At this time, Wang San also realized that he had lost his composure. After all, as the saying goes: Don't slap someone in the face if you hit someone, don't expose someone's shortcomings when you scold someone.
No matter how deep the hatred between the two lines is, I should not laugh at the younger generations.
So he sighed and continued to speak.
"It's pitiful that Zhuanxu himself can surpass the heavens, but his son can't live up to his expectations!"
"It's really a weasel laying a bean pestle - one generation is worse than the other!"
Hidden table in the book:
Emperor Zhuanxu, the co-lord of the world;
That supreme king, who had extraordinary powers, was decisive in killing all his life, and had great plans in Jingyuan, his only regret was his three sons.
According to Cai Yong's "Doctrine" of the Eastern Han Dynasty:
Emperor Zhuanxu had three sons, who were born and died as ghosts. One of them lived in the river and was a malaria ghost; one of them lived like water and was a monster; the other lived in the corner of the palace and was good at frightening children.
Not only Cai Yong, but also Cai Feibai's book "Sou Shen Ji" has similar narratives.
"In the past, Zhuanxu had three sons, who died as plague ghosts: one lived in the river as a malaria ghost, one lived in Ruo water as a sprite ghost, and the other lived in a human palace as a child ghost.
Zhuanxu was the Black Emperor of the North, one of the Five Emperors, but his son appeared as the God of Disaster.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, on the day of Laba, people beat waist drums, wore Hu Gong headgear, and became vajra warriors to drive away disasters, ward off epidemics, and ward off evil spirits.
Nowadays, the custom of Nuo at the end of the year is still preserved in some forms among some ethnic minorities in Hubei or southwest China.
The malarial ghost mentioned above is the one who just appeared in the breakfast shop.
That's why Gui Bing and Tai Feng called him His Highness.
After listening to Wang San's account of myths from ancient times, Liu Meina became even more interested.
"Third uncle, do you think Emperor Zhuanxu is very powerful?"
"Is he as powerful as my grandfather?!"
"Your grandpa?!" Thinking of Shopkeeper Liu's old-fashioned appearance and special "existence", Wang San couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
However, his face didn't reveal anything. Instead, he pretended to think seriously for a while before answering.
"Uncle Liu is almost as powerful as Zhuan Xu... Well, probably about the same... Anyway, the biggest feature is that he can't be beaten to death..."
As a king of another lineage walking in the world, Wang San did not deliberately smear Zhuan Xu.
In "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", the north is a special geographical space.
It is closely related to darkness, death, cold, and winter.
As the controller of this time and space, Zhuanxu ranked fourth among the five emperors. Later generations called him the Black Emperor of the North. His assistant god was Xuanming.
The most miraculous thing about Emperor Zhuanxu is that he "resurrects immediately after death". This ability reveals the source of his divinity and is related to the characteristic of "hiding in winter".
"The Great Wilderness Western Classic" says:
There is a fish that is dry, and it is called a fish woman. Zhuanxu revives immediately after death.
When the wind blows from the north, the sky becomes a large spring, and the snake turns into a fish, which is called a fish wife. Zhuanxu revives after his death.
It can be seen from the above that Zhuanxu’s resurrection is accompanied by the appearance of the fish wife.
The premise for the fish woman's transformation is that "the wind comes from the north, and the sky is full of springs."
In this way, the snake can turn into a fish and become a so-called "fish wife".
Snakes are terrestrial animals and fish are aquatic animals. The former represents the Yang Realm and the latter represents the underground world.
The fish wife is a product of the two realms of yin and yang, possessing both characteristics.
Therefore, from this perspective, Zhuan Xu has the ability to resurrect from the dead precisely because he has the magical property of connecting the two realms of yin and yang.ωωw.
The fish wife is its symbol.
It is precisely because of this that his son will have attributes related to the underworld.
