Chapter 45 Chapter 43: Mystery of Heaven and Earth

The Yellow Emperor led Xuanxiao to Kunlun Mountain to thank the Emperor Fuxi, but Fuxi had to go down the mountain because he had given up Kunlun Mountain to the Jade Emperor.Fuxi has also retrieved Nuwa and wanted to travel around with Nuwa, but Nuwa would not go. Nuwa asked Huangdi to build her a palace for Nuwa in Jizhou, where she planned to spend the rest of her life.Jibo, Shennong, and Huangdi did not know until then that Yinglong was the child of the Emperor and the Nine Heavens Xuannv.Fuxi had no choice but to tell his children and disciples the Taiji, Hetu, Luoshu, Eight Diagrams and Sixty-Four Hexagrams he had acquired throughout his life, as well as the mysteries of heaven and earth hidden on the celestial sphere.The Yellow Emperor thought that he had already obtained the world, and Fuxi would give these fetishes to him if he and the emperor wanted them, but what he never expected was that after Fuxi told the great secret between heaven and earth hidden in it, he would Lead them to the junction of the Yellow River and the Luoshui River, and put the four treasures of heaven and earth that the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother of the West, and the Yellow Emperor have been looking forward to back into the rolling Yellow River.Afterwards, Fu Xi, Ying Long, and Zhu Rong's child, Hong Jun, went on a tour around the world.

The Yellow Emperor led all the soldiers back to Taihao, and asked the generals to organize the celebration of the people, but the Yellow Emperor was in a trance, and he didn't feel like a winner at all.When he and his mother returned to Yunyan Palace, they fell asleep with their heads covered. After sleeping for a whole day, Huang Di didn't get up.He asked Mommy to stay in Yunyan Palace, and asked Fenghou to take care of him, and Queen Feng said: "You don't want to take Mommy back to see Leizu now, doesn't she want to do something else?" Huang Di said: "I have already asked Mommy, she said, let me arrange everything before she can be settled!"

Feng Hou praised: "It's really unexpected, this Marshal Mao, although he looks bad, is really good!" Huang Di looked at him and said, "What are you talking about? You don't look good, and you didn't let her marry you." Feng Hou was embarrassed by Huang Di's words.He stuck out his tongue and said, "I talk too much, I talk too much!" Huang Di said: "I will go back to Xinzheng first, and then I will go to Kunlun Mountain again. I should thank the emperor! This time we have leveled Chi You, and the first credit is the emperor's disciple Yinglong!"

Feng Hou said: "Yeah, I also learned a lot from Ying Long. Especially his pre-war preparations are wonderful. In fact, when we took Chi You this time, we didn't use all the gossip formations at all. I have already won a few formations before I use them! I will study this Eight Diagrams formation in the future, and if there is another battle, I will be able to use it!" Huang Di said: "Will there be another war? What else can there be? Chi You and other gods of war have been defeated by me. Who else can fight against me in this world?" Feng Hou said: "Then when will the Yellow Emperor leave?"

Huang Di said: "Soon!" Feng Hou said: "Although today's appointment is decided, it's better to arrange the affairs of various places first, and then go to Kunlun before it's too late!" The Yellow Emperor summoned all the generals and said, "Da Hong will still go to the Fire Clan to deal with all the affairs, and wait for Kuafu to come back. After you go, you must treat Kuafu's family well, and don't let them feel oppressed!" Da Hong said: "Yes!" Huang Di said: "For the time being, Li Mu is the Marquis of Taihao, and Chang Yi is the Marquis of Qiongsang, in charge of the Li people in various places."

Fenghou asked, "What about Jiuli?" The Yellow Emperor said: "There are no people left in the land of Jiuli. Others can't manage it if they go. Those who leave will not come back. It is beyond the jurisdiction of ordinary people. I want to invite Shennong to let him manage Jiuli. If those Jiuli people hear that Shennong is going back, they will definitely come back!" Feng Hou praised: "The Yellow Emperor's idea is really brilliant!" Huang Di said: "Others are still in charge of everything as before. Everything will be decided after I return from Kunlun Mountain."

After the Yellow Emperor made arrangements, he returned to the land of Xinzheng where Lei Zu stayed. At this time, Xuanxiao, the eldest son of the Yellow Emperor, was fifteen years old, and Changyi, the second son, was twelve years old.The Yellow Emperor's wife, Lei Zu, was revered as the Empress of the First Silkworms because she led others to grow mulberry and raise silkworms. When Huangdi returned to Xinzheng, he fell asleep again. Leizu saw him and didn't disturb him. He only asked after he woke up, "Since you have won, why don't I see that you are a little bit happy?"

The Yellow Emperor sighed and said: "If you say you have won, you are right. But think about it carefully, where is the victory? In terms of war, I have been defeated by Chi You nine times. The Sutra guides the way, without the help of the emperor Fuxi and Gaotu Yinglong, without the help of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West, and without... Hey, if I don’t have these, I will not be the winner. I heard Kuafu say that Chi You didn’t want to Take the world, but want to teach me a lesson, saying that I have deceived people too much. I think this is true. When I am defeated, if he comes to take Taihao and Xiong, it will be so difficult. It is clear that Chiyou also listened to Shennong. Persuasion! Although Chi You and Xing Tian are dead today, how heroic they died! If all my subordinates can be like them, even if I die, it will be a glorious death!"

Lei Zu, the first silkworm empress, said: "If you can think this way, my heart will be at ease. What kind of person is that Shennong? He created an era of farming in the world! Without him, would we be able to eat grains and wear clothes? Without him, would you be able to become the leader in Qiongsang? It can be said that even today you become the ruler of the world, which is also a gift from Shennong, so you must treat Shennong kindly no matter what! " The Yellow Emperor sighed and said: "You are right! If you don't treat him well, not only you don't agree to me, but many people also don't agree to me! Xihe, Yuqu, Huodi, Gonggu, Ning Fengzi, Hui, Mou and other generals have all received Shennong’s medical treatment and received Shennong’s favor, who can promise me! Although Chang Yi was not injured, but in Qiongsang, when someone was about to enter Shennong’s Huoyan Palace, he even took out his sword. We want to fight against our own people! But when I think about the four brothers Shennong, Kuafu, Chiyou, and Xingtian, they fought so well and ended up with such a result, my heart hurts!"

Leizu said solemnly: "I think now, why bother at the beginning! Since the world has already belonged to you Xuanyuan, you should be a good emperor and do more useful things for the human beings in the world. comfort!" The Yellow Emperor said: "That's the way to go. Now that the world has been settled, I should go to Kunlun Mountain once to meet my grandfather, the Emperor Fuxi, and my grandmother, the Emperor Nuwa! But how should I go? I haven't thought about it yet! " Leizu said: "This idea is right, you should go and see it. Especially you should go there to meet your elder brother Yandi Shennong!"

Huang Di thought: "I want to go, but I'm also a little scared. Tell me, what should I say if I see my master Ji Bo and Shen Nong?" Lei Zu asked, "Then what do you think?" The Yellow Emperor said: "Of course I still want to worship my master as a celestial master. In addition, I want to invite Shennong back to be the leader of the Jiuli tribe in the south!" Leizu shook his head and said, "It's very difficult! The ambition of Shennong does not lie in this." Xuanyuan said: "I have my own way to deal with Shennong. I am afraid of my master Ji Bo!" Lei Zu thought for a while, and suddenly saw her son Xuan Xiao playing at the side, she had an idea, and said: "I think, this time you take your child Xuan Xiao, it may be of great benefit." Huang Di looked at Xuan Xiao and asked, "How do you say it?" Lei Zu said: "I don't know, it's just a feeling. Think about it, Xuan Xiao is our next Yiren, and he is also a direct relative of the Emperor and the Emperor, especially when he is still a child. Before What you have done may not be good for Taihao or Shennong, but it has nothing to do with this child! I think it is good, and you will know it after you go there!" Xuanyuan Huangdi thought: "Xuan Xiao is about to grow up, it's good to show him the world." So Xuanyuan Huangdi brought his son Xuanxiao to Kunlun Mountain. After all, Xuanxiao was a child with a childlike innocence, jumping up and down, singing and dancing, laughing and walking for several miles.In a few days, I arrived at the mountain.Didn't they know that Ying Long was waiting there.Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor wondered: "Yinglong, didn't you go to Mount Tai with the goddess?" Ying Long said with a smile: "No, Empress Xuan Nu sent me to Kunlun first, and went back by herself!" Huang Di asked, "How did you know I would come here!" Ying Long smiled, but did not answer. The Yellow Emperor didn't ask any more questions, and slowly followed Yinglong up the mountain. The Yellow Emperor saw Darao and rebuilt Kunlun Mountain here. It is far from what it used to be. It is really a sky-high wooden beam and a square stone wall.The height of the mountain gate and the palace built are no less than his Yunyan Palace, and surrounded by colorful clouds and steaming purple, its magnificence is even better than that of Yunyan Palace. Xuan Xiao said: "Father, this mountain is so beautiful!" Huangdi also said: "Unexpectedly, Fenghou and Darao really have some architectural scheming. This Kunlun Mountain is built much better than I imagined." Ying Long said: "After the wind, it was Da Rao who worshiped under the Da Ting family. The first palace in the world, Taihao Palace, was created by the Da Ting family. Under the guidance of the Da Ting family, Da Rao led the people here After the wind was built, he just took a look and left. Didn’t he follow and fight all the time? I haven’t seen him here.” Huang Di said: "Yes, I kind of forgot. Is Da Rao still here?" Ying Long said: "When I left, there were still a few places that hadn't been completed. At that time, he was with Bogao and Rongcheng every day. Apart from architecture, he also studied astronomy and calendars." Huang Di said: "Good! Good! It's good to be self-motivated." Ying Long said: "What's more, if you turn around and look at the Huaijiang Mountain at the bottom of the mountain, it's even more beautiful." Xuanyuan Huangdi turned around and looked down the mountain. At a glance, he saw a large garden hanging in midair, with red mountains, green trees, clear water and yellow flowers reflecting together. Huang Di laughed and said, "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot, hey! All these years I've only paid attention to fighting, and I forgot that there are such beautiful scenery in the world to enjoy!" Xuan Xiao also shouted: "Father, look at that mountain, it's really a beautiful and big garden!" I only heard someone say: "There are always green trees in the world, and clear water always flows. As long as you open your eyes, there is nothing you can't enjoy." Ying Long and Huang Di saw that it was Rong Cheng and Da Rao standing beside them.Huang Di asked, "Why are you here?" Rong Chengdao: "Today is the time of great joy in Kunlun Mountain. Emperor Fuxi has brought Nuwa Empress back. Shennong, Jibo, Shaoyu, and Bogao are all here, and they are preparing to celebrate on the mountain? Da Rao and I are ordered by the Emperor , come to pick you up! We also want to meet you, the new master of the world, sooner!" Huang Di laughed and said, "What a coincidence, it turns out that Shennong Yandi is also here!" Rong Cheng, Da Rao and Ying Long lead Huang Di Xuanyuan and Xuan Xiao to the Emperor's Hall on the top of Kunlun Mountain, where they meet Emperor Fuxi, Empress Nuwa, Nu Deng, Shennong Jiang Yan, Master Ji Bo, uncle Shaoyu and Bo Gao. When Nu Deng saw the Yellow Emperor coming in, she immediately stood up and said, "So you are the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, and you killed my son Chi You?" Nu Deng's words stunned Huang Di for a moment.Huang Di had never seen Nü Deng, but heard from his mother, Fu Bao, that he also had a great aunt, who was Shen Nong's mother.Huang Di looked at Ying Long and asked, "Who is this?" Shennong said, "It's my mother." Nv Deng said again: "If you want to be the Yellow Emperor, that's all. Why are you killing innocent people indiscriminately?" Huang Di said: "It is inevitable that there will be casualties in this war. I fought Chi You, and when we really fought, either you die or I die." Nü Deng came up and grabbed Huang Di and said, "Then, just kill me too." Emperor Fuxi gave Uncle Ji a wink, and Uncle Ji came up to support his sister and said, "Sister, calm down, the Yellow Emperor is right, death is inevitable on the battlefield." Shennong also came to support his mother.Nv Deng said: "No, I will make him pay back my son Chi You's life!" Bo Gao came over and said, "Sister, calm down." He gave Xuanyuan a blank look and said, "You haven't apologized to your aunt yet!" Xuanyuan glanced at Fuxi, knelt down to Nu Deng and said, "We didn't intend to kill him either, but Chi You had to avenge his father Chi Tian, ​​and he also killed my father Shao Dian for this reason, you say, Who should I blame for this revenge?" Nu Deng said: "But Shao Dian deserves to die, he even killed Chi Tian!" Emperor Fuxi said: "Okay, you all have to calm down, the number of people killed in this war is too many, in our family, first Shaodian killed Chitian, then Chiyou killed Shaodian, and then Xuanyuan killed Chi You. It looks like this war is a world war. When you think about it carefully, it’s just that our family is fighting and killing. Whose fault is it? The fault of the war! So I say, don’t blame anyone. , if you continue to blame like you forever, wouldn’t the war have to continue forever? Finally, the war is over, let’s all live a peaceful life!” Emperor Fuxi spoke most forcefully, although Nu Deng still looked at Huang Di with angry eyes, but said nothing more. The Empress Nuwa, the Emperor of Human Beings, sat at the head, and beside her, there was a Tonger who seemed to be younger than Xuan Xiao.That Xuanxiao approached Tong'er, ran over and held Tong'er's hand, and asked, "What's your name? Shall we go out to play?" I only heard the Tong'er say: "My name is Jun'er, where are we going?" The Yellow Emperor looked at everyone's expressions, they were not close to him, and thought, "Lei Zu is still thinking carefully, if there is no Xuan Xiao child, it will be extremely embarrassing."So I bowed down to the Emperor and Empress, Master and Shaoyu, Bogao, etc., and bowed deeply to Shennong: "Brother Shennong Yandi is virtuous, and Xuanyuan's last tooth will never be forgotten!" He made Xuan Xiao kneel down again and said, "This is your great-grandfather and great-grandfather-in-law, those are your maternal grandfathers!" Pointing to Shennong again, he said, "This is the famous Yandi Shennong in the past, your great uncle." Who knew that Xuan Xiao said, "Didn't Emperor Yan be defeated by you?" Shennong Yandi didn't say a word, Huangdi stared at Xuan Xiao and said: "Children, don't talk nonsense." Xuanxiao said: "I'm not talking nonsense, in Taihao, who doesn't know, during the Battle of Banquan, my father defeated Emperor Yan in three battles." Xuanyuan Huangdi looked at Shennong in embarrassment.Shennong smiled and said, "The child is right. You were the one who won!" Na Xuanxiao looked at his father and said, "Even he said I was right, father, am I right?" Xuanyuan squinted at Xuan Xiao and said, "What an ignorant child!" In order to change the subject, Xuanyuan pointed to the boy and asked, "Who is this boy? I haven't seen him before!" Rong Cheng came over and said: "This child is Zhu Rong's son, the emperor's great-grandson!" The Yellow Emperor was shocked. He looked at his master Ji Bo and said, "Why, did you find Zhu Rong? Where is he now?" Unexpectedly, Bo Ji ignored him at all. Empress Nuwa, Shaoyu and Bogao ignored him.With tears still streaming from the corners of Shennong's eyes, Xuanyuan asked, "Brother Yandi, what's wrong with you?" Shennong smiled slightly and said, "It's all right!" But Xuan Xiao suddenly became sensible, saluting frequently: "Great-grandfather and great-grandmother are in good health, great uncle, second uncle, and old uncle are in good health!" Then he pulled Na Jun'er's hand and said, "We two are Brother!" It was as if someone had taught him beforehand, with an extremely amusing expression.Empress Nuwa liked it very much, she stepped forward and took his hand and said: "This child is so old. See if he looks like Fu Bao!" Emperor Fuxi also came up to pick him up, rolled his eyes up and down and said, "It's a bit like Fu Bao's childhood." Ji Bo, Shaoyu, and Bo Gao also felt close.It's just that no one paid any attention to Xuanyuan. After a long time, Emperor Fuxi said: "Xuanyuan, get up!" Then he said to the others: "The matter has come to an end. Although Chiyou, Kuafu, and Xingtian are all loyal people, the war is cruel and ruthless. They stand on both sides with Xuanyuan. Fighting and killing each other is inevitable, didn't Father Yong in the Yellow Emperor's team also be killed by Chi You?" It turns out that when Huangdi Xuanyuan arrived, Emperor Fuxi's family was discussing the Battle of Zhuolu and the deaths of Chiyou, Kuafu, and Xingtian. Shennong couldn't help crying when he learned that the three were dead. The first silent mourning. Seeing that the two sides were still silent, Fuxi stood up and helped Xuanyuan up and said, "War is cruel and ruthless, but war also has its good points. It was this vigorous Zhuolu battle that produced the chariot, shield, bow, crossbow, and so on. Zhouji even has a compass car that can tell the direction, and of course there are sharp weapons such as short daggers and long spears, as well as musical instruments such as drums and horns. Just imagine, if there is no such war, how long it would take for these objects to appear. In the future, cars can be used to carry objects, guides can be used to explore the direction of the universe, boats can be used for long-distance voyages, bows and sharp weapons can be used for hunting, drums and trumpets can be used for performing entertainment, etc. All of these are really a big step forward for mankind Ah. From this point of view, even though Chi You, Kuafu, and Xing Tian are dead, they are worth their money!" After Emperor Fuxi spoke, Uncle Ji and others let out a sigh of relief.Shennong Jiang Yan is a magnanimous person, he first wiped away his tears, smiled at Xuanyuan and said, "I don't intend to ask the emperor to support me, I just think about it, even if Chi You, Kuafu, and Xing Tian still have breath, maybe I can cure them." Good for them." Then he took Xuan Xiao from Bo Ji's hand and said, "Come on, let uncle give you a hug too." Huangdi Xuanyuan was startled and said, "Is Kuafu also dead?" Shennong said: "Kuafu chased the sun by himself, and he was exhausted!" He told Xuanyuan the story he had heard, and Xuanyuan shed tears after listening to it: "Kuafu, you are really a strong man with love and intention!" There was a moment of silence. Fuxi first said: "The dead are gone! The war is over, and the world is moving towards peace. Don't be sad all the time." Xuanyuan quickly smiled and said: "I firmly believe in this. After this war, I understand a lot of things better, and I understand the suffering of war. I also especially understand the character of my brother Shennong Yandi. He kept persuading me to treat Shennong kindly. Before, I, Xuanyuan, was too stingy, please forgive me, grandpa, grandma, master and uncles!" After saying that, the Yellow Emperor saluted and bowed down again. Uncle Ji finally stood up, helped Xuanyuan to sit up and sat down, and said, "You will be the Yellow Emperor from now on, so you don't have to perform this grand ceremony in front of outsiders." Empress Nuwa also said: "In the past, Xuanyuan has become an adult, the Yellow Emperor, and there are some wrinkles in the corners of his eyes! War is definitely not a good thing, it can make people grow old!" The deadlock was finally broken.At this time, Emperor Fuxi and Empress Nuwa were both in their seventies, and the corners of their faces began to turn gray. Huangdi Xuanyuan said again: "This time I came to Kunlun, there is one more thing I want to ask brother Shennong to help. I don't want to start a war with the Jiuli tribe. In the past, although Jiuli belonged to Chiyou, it still belonged to Emperor Yan Shennong. I heard that As I said, it was Shennong who gave them food and clothes, so the elder brother had to go to govern Jiuli." After hearing this, Emperor Fuxi nodded and said: "Xuanyuan is considered a sensible person if he can think like this. He raised the sharp knife and put it down, with good thoughts in his heart. I didn't see wrongly, Jiang Yan, what do you think? " Shen Nong Jiang Yan said: "I have long wanted to withdraw from the circle of management, no longer participate in political affairs, and devote myself to studying herbal medicine, curing diseases and saving lives, I cannot agree!" Xuanyuan murmured: "Don't blame me if you don't go, I heard that the entire Jiuli people are going to fight me to the death! Chi You, the god of war, was still defeated by me, not to mention the other Jiuli people, I have no choice but to wash Jiuli with blood. " Jiang Yan stood up and said: "Don't fight anymore, can't I go and I go?" Xuanyuan asked: "Is this really true?" Shennong said: "Really, a gentleman will never change a word." Emperor Fuxi saw it, and laughed loudly: "Jiang Yan, Shen Nong, you will never be your brother's opponent! But it is not bad for you to go to Jiuli, where you can find the god of fire Zhurong and the god of water Gonggong, they are all in the south what!" Jiang Yan asked in surprise: "Is it true?" The emperor nodded affirmatively. Emperor Fuxi said: "The guests who should arrive have already arrived, and those who don't come will not be able to come for a while. You are all my relatives and disciples. Whether relatives or disciples, there is no permanent banquet in the world, so today I want to announce A few things. The first thing is, I want to travel far away and the universe with your mother or grandmother or great-grandmother, that is, Empress Nuwa. A long time ago, Nuwa and I left the cave to establish the Taihao Tribe. The true meaning of the universe, traveling south and north, east to the sea and North Korea, north to Liaodong, west to Kunlun and the four river basins in the west, south to the Nile Kingdom, and south to the ocean. I am busy walking every day, and rarely take care of Nuwa Madam. Today we are both in our seventies. I want to spend the rest of my time with the bridesmaid and let her see how profound and open the world of flowers and flowers in the universe is. Even if I had such an idea in the past, I couldn’t do it, although I could But the empress can’t! Now that I have carts, boats, and a tool to guide the chariot, I can do what I want. In the past, before you fought in Zhuolu, I had already built a chariot and drove it with oxen. Then you can carry your mother on the land. I made another picture, there are twelve wheels, and these wheels are installed on the boat, so that the boat can be enlarged a lot, and it is not surprising that it can hold thirty or fifty people. This thing is made It takes half a year to become a boat. During this period, I traveled all over the Central Plains in a car. Therefore, I want to ask Xuanyuan Huangdi to send capable craftsmen to help me build the boat, store the boat at the mouth of the Yellow River, and send someone to take care of it. When we can't swim with Empress Nuwa, we will come to the boat so that we can travel far in the future." Xuanyuan Huangdi said: "Grandpa and Madam don't worry, I will finish this matter as soon as possible." But Empress Nuwa said: "Fuxi, that's your wishful thinking. I didn't say I'd go with you. I'm a woman, and I don't want to travel long distances, and I don't want to travel around. No matter how beautiful the world of the universe is, it cannot Attracts me, and I don't want to be with you anymore. This time I went for a walk from Kunlun Mountain, and I fell in love with a place. Nv Deng and I have already discussed it. The two of us will go there to spend our days. Xuanyuan, now that you are the Yellow Emperor, I can no longer beg my son or others to build a Nuwa Palace for me there. Also, the place in Jizhou is also good. I can be named the emperor, and I am on an equal footing with Fuxi's emperor, so how about you help me build a Wahuang palace in Jizhou, and arrange some servants to serve us two?" Xuanyuan Huangdi looked at Fuxi.Fuxi said to Nuwa: "I have told you several times, and I am not afraid to say it again in front of so many children. I was wrong before, but I have changed it. We grew up when we were young. We created the Taihao tribe together when we were young, decades of ups and downs have passed, can the two still be separated?" But Nuwa said: "We used to be seldom together. It was the Taihao I managed and the Taihao I developed. Where were you at those times? Aren't you always in Kunlun Mountain?" Fuxi said: "Now Kunlun Mountain will belong to someone else, so I want to travel around the universe with you!" Nuwa waved her hand and said, "I won't go, you can't decide." After Nuwa finished speaking, she looked at Ying Long and said, "Ying Long, you can go with your father, we can rest assured that you will take care of us!" After Nuwa finished speaking, all the people present were astonished.They all stared at Ying Long, even Ji Bo was surprised.None of them thought that this Ying Long was their younger brother. Fu Xi's expression was very embarrassed, and it took a while for him to return to his normal state.He smiled and said: "Ji Bo, Shaoyu, Bo Gao, you don't know that this Yinglong, just as your mother said, is also my son, and he is also a brother of you, but his The mother is just the Nine Heavens Xuannv." Ji Bo, Shaoyu, and Bo Gao all looked at their mother, Nuwa, and at each other.Nuwa said: "Since they are your half-brothers, you should be affectionate! However, I have something to say earlier. Both Yandi and Huangdi are the sons of Shaodian, and they are also half-brothers. I don’t want you to be the same. To be brothers, you must be brothers and sisters!” Ji Bo, Shaoyu, and Bo Gao all came to hold Yinglong's hand.But Ying Long said: "Brothers, don't be too busy, I have to give you a big gift first." After Yinglong finished speaking, he first came to pay respects to Nuwa, and then paid respects to Uncle Ji, Nv Deng, Shao Yu, and Bo Gao one by one.The Palace of the Emperor suddenly became lively.Shennong looked at the Yellow Emperor, and the two said together: "I really don't think so, Yinglong is still our uncle!" The two also came to salute Yinglong, and Yinglong helped them up with both hands. Fuxi let out a long sigh, and said to Ji Bo, Shaoyu, and Bo Gao: "Forget it, people have their own ambitions. Since your mother doesn't want to travel around with me, then you sons and daughters should take care of her more! In my life, I have nothing to do with you. The heaven and the sky are united as one, seeking the way of the unity of heaven, earth and man. The world is so vast and mysterious, and even if I exhaust my whole life, it may be difficult to exhaust, but I don't want to give up. With Yinglong by my side, you There is no need to worry!" Uncle Ji heard this, and said with a sad face: "Uncle Ji was taught by his father and obeyed his mother since he was a child. In my heart, my parents existed at the same time, but today, my parents have to be separated, and Uncle Ji couldn't bear it. Father, Since your mother doesn't want to go out with you, and you are getting older, can't you just stay at home with your mother?" As soon as Uncle Ji finished speaking, Nuwa said, "Uncle, your father bears the fate of God, and shoulders the responsibility of human survival. There are things you know, and there are things you don't know, and there are things you can see." There are things that can be touched, but there are also things that cannot be seen or touched. You have a heavy responsibility, so naturally you don’t allow your father to have doubts and stay, so just let him go!” Fu Xi nodded.Glancing at Nuwa with grateful eyes, he walked up to Uncle Ji, pressed his hand on his shoulder, and said, "People stand between heaven and earth, and they must stand up to heaven and earth. Benevolence and filial piety coexist in your body. With you , I don’t worry about your mother anymore. Although I, Fuxi, didn’t give you Tianxia, ​​it was because of a coincidence and heavenly secret! Today Xia has returned to Xuanyuan, but the world is not peaceful. You are Xuanyuan Huangdi’s celestial master, peace Major events in the world must be in the hands of you. I am leaving, and I will entrust all the matters of your mother and your sister's daughter to you and Xuanyuan!" After Fuxi finished speaking, he glanced at Xuanyuan again. Xuanyuan Huangdi took the opportunity and said: "Grandpa, please don't worry, everything about grandma is left to Tianshi and me Xuanyuan. If grandma and aunt are not well taken care of, Xuanyuan will be punished by grandpa." Fu Xi nodded with a smile and said, "Since you can say what you say, I believe that you can do what you say, so I can rest assured. For the second matter, I have a few pictures here, and I will talk about it in the next few days." Listen to it with you." After Fuxi finished speaking, he took out three pictures.Two of these three pictures are carved from animal bones and wrapped in animal skins.One is carved out of wood.Fuxi pointed to the oracle bone map and said: "These two pictures are Hetu and Luoshu." Xuanyuan's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: "It turns out that the Hetu and Luoshu that my mother has been thinking about so much are these two pictures!" Xuanyuan thought, his heart couldn't help beating. Only to hear Fuxi say again: "This wooden map is also two, the middle part is the Tai Chi map, and the outer circle map is the sixty-four hexagrams I deduced from the gossip." There was a commotion among the people present, Shaoyu said: "I only heard about gossip, why did it become sixty-four hexagrams?" Bo Gao said: "Is there a picture of Tai Chi in the middle?" Xuanxiao asked Nuwa, "Grandmother, what is a Taiji diagram?" Nu Wa said to Xuan Xiao: "After a while, your grandfather will tell you the story!" Xuanxiao looked at Fuxi with extremely curious eyes. I just heard Fuxi say: "In the past, I studied Hetu, Luoshu, and Bagua in order to seek the true meaning of the universe. Therefore, I found that there are four kinds of treasures in Chunzhen, Xiali, Qiudui, and Dongkan during one year old. These four seasons have gradually guided the daily travels of Taihao people, as well as various tribes such as the Fire Clan, Youxiong, Jiuli, and Qiongsang. Later, I studied the gossip and found that the four seasons can be divided into Lichun , vernal equinox, beginning of summer, summer solstice, beginning of autumn, autumnal equinox, beginning of winter, winter solstice and other eight phenomena. Looking at the river map and Luo number, they are just a combination of numbers. , but it contains the great secret of the cycle of heaven. It can be said that Hetu, Luoshu, Eight Diagrams and Sixty-Four Hexagrams combine nature and human beings into one. After clarifying these, basically, one gradually begins to understand the subtle principles of nature and human beings, such as nature and human beings, time and space, pictographic quantity and essence, mutation evolution and degeneration, heavenly principles and reincarnation, etc., and only by understanding these Only then can we human beings change from being constrained by the nature of the world to gradually understand and use the natural avenue to avoid natural disasters such as floods, droughts, locusts, volcanoes, and earthquakes, and gradually make human beings the masters of the world instead of being destroyed by nature! In a word, if you master these, you will skillfully grasp the energy of the earth, grasp the mysteries of the heaven and earth, and make the heaven, earth and man truly become one. Of course, I am still in the process of exploring the last point I mentioned. Some things I haven't figured it out yet, and that's why I want to go out and travel around the universe!" When Fuxi said this, his expression was solemn and serious, as if human beings were really about to face a big disaster.Jibo, Shennong, Huangdi and others were also infected by Fuxi's demeanor.Shen Nong said: "Grandpa, according to what you said, will we human beings suffer from countless disasters?" Fu Xi nodded and said: "Actually, we humans have encountered many disasters, and humans have faced destruction several times. God still loves humans, the elves of the natural universe, and always leaves the seeds of humans in the great destruction. .Today, I am not here to scare you. To tell you the truth, my children, Shennong Jiangyan, Huangdi Xuanyuan and the deceased Chiyou, Kuafu and Xingtian are all descendants of giants! But our ancestors, But it was destroyed by a flood!" Fuxi's words shocked everyone in the audience.Jiang Yan, Xuanyuan, Ji Bo, Shaoyu, Bo Gao and Ying Long all stared, and Nu Wa's eyes widened too.She had been with Fuxi for so many years, and it was the first time she heard Fuxi tell such a sensational thing.Nuwa said: "How is that possible? I remember that when we went from Taihao to Huozu to marry Jiang Yan, I once heard Suiren say: You are his son. And you admitted it. In front of me and the children, I called Suiren Father!" Fuxi smiled slightly and said: "You are right. Suiren once said that he is my father, and I called him father. But, I said that against my will. In fact, I have seen my father. My biological father, I saw on Mount Tai after I accepted the three giant children in Kunlun Mountain. The children of the three giants are Shaodian, Chitian and Guangchengzi. Shaodian has two The sons are Shennong Jiangyan, who was born to Shaodian and Nv Denger, and Xuanyuan, who was born to Shaodian and Fu Bao. Chitian, there is a descendant, and he and Denger gave birth to Chiyou. Guangchengzi and I When I went to the land of Miaojiang in the south, I married a woman there and gave birth to two children. I think you may have guessed that they are Kuafu and Xingtian. But Guangchengzi was unwilling to come back. He and Shaodian Unlike Chi Tian, ​​he has no interest in human affairs at all, so I let him go to a mountain in the south. As for him, he asked me to bring Kuafu and Xing Tian back to Kunlun Mountain for adoption. I will take this The two children lived in a couple's home at the foot of Kunlun Mountains and spent their childhood. Later, Shennong Jiangyan went to various places to find rice and herbs, so I brought Kuafu and Xingtian. The two brothers Then I started to travel the world with Jiang Yan and Chi You brothers. You may not know that Shaodian, Chi Tian and Guang Chengzi are the children of the five giants I met on Mount Sumeru not far from Kunlun Mountain. These giants After the three children were entrusted to me, they went to the east together. I searched to the east, just to know where the five giants went. But I didn't find these five people, but I saw mine on the top of Mount Tai. His biological father. He was not dead at the time. When I saw him, he was already in a kind of complete despair. He ended his own life. Then, there were some things left behind, a pile of engraved pictures and texts skeletons." After Fuxi finished speaking, he took out the bones picked up from Mount Tai and let Nuwa, Ji Bo and others watch.Shaoyu and Bogao asked: "What is the figure on this?" Xuanyuan looked at it, and suddenly said: "Grandpa, it turns out that the oracle bone script originated from the giant you saw on Mount Tai!" Fuxi smiled and said: "Yes! At that time, I hadn't discovered the great significance of these pictures and texts. I just had a little inspiration, so I took these oracle bone pictures and texts back and kept thinking about the content on them. Only when I After I figured out the big events recorded by this giant, I realized that using pictures and texts to record things is much better than our previous knotting records. At that time, Uncle Ji came to me and said that you want to record what he said When I spoke, I had just researched Xiangyi, and I felt that you were destined for this picture and text, so I gave you a bundle of bones. Later, you and Cang Jie and others really created characters slowly. My father , In fact, he has made great achievements for mankind! It is he who opened up the precedent for human graphics!" Shaoyu asked again: "What do these pictures and texts say?" Only then did Fuxi say: "It records several major events in his life." So Fuxi pointed out those pictures and texts one by one to Shaoyu and others: "This picture records the Longbo country where my father lives!这一张记载了那次灭绝人类的大洪水，将整个龙伯国都湮灭了；这一张记载了我父亲和另外的五个龙伯国的巨人们出来寻找食物，这五个人比我父亲看起来小，他们是在我父亲的带领下出来的，侥幸躲过了那场大洪水。这五个巨人就是后来我在须弥山上遇见的那五个巨人。我见到他们的时候，他们已经由五个变成了八个人，因为其中的三个女人有了三个孩子，就是少典、蚩天和广成子。这一张说他们走散了，我父亲成了单独的一个人；还有这一张，就是我父亲在一个水泽里看见了一个在那里洗澡的小女人，于是，与这个女人有了关系。而这个女人，就是当时出去采摘果子的我的母亲。我听母亲说过，她和几个姐妹看见了大人的脚印，而我母亲履了大人迹。还有这最后一张，就是他找不到亲人，也再也找不到他的国家，因此他绝望地自杀了！” 伏羲说到这里，脸上露出悲哀的神色。 伯高看着看着，指着另外的一堆骨骸道：“还有这些，是什么意思啊？还有，父亲，你说的那个龙伯国在什么地方啊？？” 伏羲就将那些骨骸图文一张一张地拿了出来，一边给他们看一边道：“龙伯国已经湮灭在茫茫无际的大海里。我听那五个巨人讲过，龙伯国原来的地方也是一大片陆地，有一个大的沟壑，名字叫做归墟。归墟四周有五座高山，分别叫做岱舆、员峤、方壶、赢洲和蓬莱。如今就连这些高山都变成了一片汪洋，只剩下瀛洲和蓬莱两座山了。对于这两座山，我大体知道他们的方位，也在东部大海之滨。应该在神农姜炎所开创的穷桑的东边。蓬莱在泰山的东北部大海之侧，而瀛洲却是在东边大海的中央。想来，在没有爆发洪水之前，这五座大山本是连在一体的，在这五座大山的中间，就应该是龙伯国的方位。可是现在，岱舆、员峤、方壶等三座山已经被海水湮灭，我们也只能这般去想了：瀛洲山和蓬莱山山脚下面的水面以下之处，应该就是原来的龙伯国所居住之地。而我父亲所以选择了泰山作为他的死亡之地，因为他在泰山上能望见湮灭龙伯国的那片大海啊！” 女娲、姬伯、神农、轩辕等人一个个瞪大眼睛。少俞摸摸脑袋道：“这，太可怕了，这洪水也太厉害了吧！” 神农姜炎突然道：“我明白了，外公为什么在泰山封禅，原来是为了祭奠外公的父亲。外公曾经对我说，泰山是一座神山，是一座灵山，也是一座人类之山，原来泰山的意义在于此啊！” Fu Xi nodded.他看了看女娲，道：“后来，我就把凫山之地的一户人家带到了泰山上，让他守护着这座神山，并为我的父亲守灵！” 轩辕皇帝插言道：“我知道是谁了，原来是太山稽和嫫母父女。” 伏羲点头道：“他们本来是一家三口人的，可是嫫母的母亲早早地去世了，因此就剩下了太山稽和嫫母父女。太山稽的武功是我教授的，而嫫母则是九天玄女调教的。” 轩辕黄帝道：“原来如此！怪不得后来我去泰山之上，在那里见到了九天玄女和玉皇以及西王母呢？” 伏羲听了，看看轩辕问道：“你是说，那个玉皇和西王母也去泰山了？” 轩辕点点头道：“是啊，就是在泰山之上，他们答应帮助我对付蚩尤！”轩辕说完了，只觉得有些失口，他看了看女登和神农。低下头道：“那次，我已经被蚩尤打得狼狈不堪。我都没心事再打下去了，可是遇见了他们。” 伏羲将黄帝打断问道：“那玉皇他们到泰山上干什么？” 黄帝道：“我就听他问玄女道，这泰山上藏着什么秘密？值得你每年都去泰山上拜祭？那九天玄女也不知道！他也就没再问！” “哦！”伏羲听了，点点头。像是在思考什么，突然问：“那玉皇和西王母没给你讲什么吗？关于河图什么的？” 轩辕看了看神农、姬伯和女娲娘娘道：“是讲了，可是我也没听清楚他说了什么？” 伏羲深深地看了黄帝一眼，道：“好，那我们继续说这些图片！” 说完，伏羲又拿过另一幅图来道：“这幅图中有一个个子最高的大人，这个人已经成了神话。我曾经在昆仑山听那几个巨人讲过，他们的龙伯国曾经有一个个头最高的巨人，这个巨人叫做盘古。他活着的时候比山还高。那个时候，巨人已经成为大地上最高大最厉害的动物。还有一种动物可以和他们比高低，那就是龙。那个时候人们很惧怕这种叫做龙的动物，把它叫做恐龙。为了争夺大地上的生存权，人类在盘古的统领下曾经和恐龙一战，结果最后人类胜了。那个时候，盘古拔这些大树就像我们拔一根草一样。可是尽管这样，这个盘古也没有活到现在，他也是让一场大洪水给毁灭了的。你们看这幅图片，说这个地方已经三次大海，三次桑田。就是说，我和女娲只遇见了一场大洪水，以前还发生过比这次更大的水灾。” 伏羲的话更加重了女娲等人的惶恐。女娲道：“我们遇见的那场洪水已经使岐山姜氏部落的人死去了那么多，以前还有比这更大的洪水，岂不是更具有毁灭性了吗？” 伏羲叹了一声道：“是啊！这幅图片使我想到了一件事，那就是，我们人类到现在可能已经不是第一茬人了，而是第三茬或者是第四茬人了。也就是说，这天地的灾害是循环发生的，每隔一段时日就可能发生一次大的自然灾害，而在大的灾难中间，还会有很多小的劫难。这些大大小小的灾难都在不时地湮灭着人类啊！” 女娲听了，眼睛中有些泪痕落了下来。她长叹了一声道：“我们人类啊，真是不易！要面对这么大的洪水！” 伏羲道：“不只是洪水、还有干旱、地震、火山等等自然灾害，都有可能带给人类毁灭性的伤亡。我曾经和那些个巨人进行过对话，虽然当时不是很明白，可是日思月想，也渐渐地悟出了很多道理，再加上这幅图片。” 轩辕黄帝往图片上看去，只见上面有很多的沟沟道道和圈圈点点，怎么看也看不明白。姬伯、神农姜炎也看着图片只摇头。 伏羲道：“再加上我这些年观天察地所得，终于明白，天有天道，地有地道，人有人道。所谓道，便是苍天、大地和人类运行的自然规律。这些规律，有伸展的，有循环的，有渐进的，有退化的，应该叫具有周期性的循环运行之律。可是要最终弄明白其中的道理，必须明白两种相互对立又相互依存的东西。我们把它叫做阴和阳。” 伏羲说着，从衣服中取出一物，那是一块天然的石板，上面浑然天成着阴阳鱼图。这就是那块伏羲在成纪的卦台山上捡到的太极阴阳磁石。伏羲道：“就是它，太极图。其中蕴藏着阴阳互根互生交替变换的大道理和大规律！” 轩辕看见那块太极磁石，心中又立时咚咚地跳了起来。他又想起了他和力牧在泰山上遇见九天玄女、玉皇、西王母时的情景。他知道，玉皇和西王母最初苦苦寻找的，正是外公手里的这块太极石。他听玉皇说过，磁石有增长人的体能、启动人的心智和增加人的寿命的大功效。外公伏羲能用手击碎巨石，能会草叶穿身这种神乎其神的武功，与这块太极石必然是有很深刻的关系。如果自己有了这块磁石，可能也会渐渐地变得像外公一样，天下无敌了！刚才外公问自己玉皇问了他什么却没有回答，因为他不想让神农姜炎和师父姬伯知道的太多，所以说玉皇说了什么，自己没在意！他怎么能不在意呢？母亲伏宝日夜惦记的就是伏羲手中的这些宝贝，他只是在玉皇那里才知道了这几样宝物叫做太极、河图、洛书、天球。Yes indeed!外公只给看了太极、河图、洛书、那什么是天球呢？ 轩辕黄帝带着这个问题，和外公伏羲，外婆女娲、师父姬伯、兄长姜炎等一起吃、住。他不像神农姜炎那样，痛苦过后就不想别的什么了。特别是当神农看见母亲女登仍然用仇恨的眼神看着轩辕的时候，还劝慰母亲说此事不怪轩辕，是怪姨母伏宝的。姬伯呢，好像伏羲所讲的事和他无关一样，也不怎么问。倒是少俞和伯高不时地说一说过去的人类怎么让洪水湮灭的事情，感叹人类的命运。轩辕只是等待，等待伏羲将那太极、河图、洛书、天球的秘密能说出来。 翌日餐毕，伏羲终于将女娲、女登、姬伯、少俞、伯高、应龙、神农、轩辕极其亲属聚在一起，继续讲道：“上次我已经说过，天地人的大道聚在两个字中，那就是阴与阳。何为阴？何为阳？我想，你们大都已经懂得和明白。日为阳而月为阴，白天为阳晚上为阴，这些浅显的事物，却隐藏着深刻的道理。阴阳存在于天地之间，存在于我们所能看见的和没有看见的任何事物中，构成万事万物的根本。任何事物，如果没有阳，阴便无以为存，没有阴，阳便无以为在。阴阳相抱，同体而生，阴长阳消或者阳长阴消，便构成事物成长和消亡的规律。就像这太极石所隐藏的阴阳鱼图一般，有伸展，有收缩，有前进，有倒退。在一天之中，每天早晨都是阳长而阴消，到了中午阳长到极致，午后便开始了阴长而阳消，到了午夜之时，阴又长到极致。所以从今天早晨到明天早晨就完成了一个循环更替。在一年之中，分为四个节气，立冬之日，阴生长到及至，晚上最长而白天最短，天气到了严寒之时，开始了阳长阴消，到了立春之时，阴阳几乎各半，天气不冷不热，白天黑夜也都均分。到了立夏之日，阳又生长到及至，天气酷暑炎热。白天最长而晚上最短，却又开始了阴长阳消之时。立秋时节，阴阳各半，再到立冬时，阴长至及至。因此，一年之中也完成了一个大的循环。可是，除了日、月、年以外，这自然的气候还有没有更大的循环存在呢？而又为什么会存在着这样大的循环呢？如果我们将一个循环的时间叫做一个周期的话，那么多少年会是一个新的周期呢？你们要弄明白，这里我说的循环是空间，而周期是时间。这时间和空间套在一起与事物的共同进退，就是太极图展现给我们人类的天、地、人合一的自然宇宙模式。我们怎么样去解开这种模式呢？” 伏羲说到这里顿了一顿，见在座的人似乎都在思考，就继续道：“同时，我们要想象的是，在每一个周期性的循环之内，有那些事情会必然发生的，有那些事情又是偶然发生呢？就像我们已经感觉到的地震、火山、洪水、干旱等等，也是周期性地循环发生的吗？” 姬伯、神农姜炎、黄帝轩辕、少俞、伯高、应龙等互相看看，伏羲讲的东西，都似乎觉得有些不可思议。 还是姜炎问道：“外公，你讲的太深刻了吧！我知道，万事万物，各有定律。可是你提出的这么高深的问题，是我们人类所能够解决的吗？” 伏羲笑了，喝了一些水，才道：“我所说的，不是人类能不能够解决的问题，而是人类必须去面对必须解决的问题。因为，如果人类解决不了这些问题，人类就会稀里糊涂地被这些问题所解决掉。”说到这里，伏羲又加重了语气，严肃地道：“你们要知道，我还是那句话，我所说的，不是耸人听闻！” 伏羲说到此，看了一眼女娲道：“我和女娲初创太昊不久，便遇见了那场大洪水。洪水过后，活过来的人所剩无几。这场洪水给我留下的印象太深了，也太可怕了。于是在太昊部落得到一点扩展以后，我想到的第一件大事就是想办法让人类生存下去！我这里所说的人类，不是一个你，也不是一个我，也不是一个太昊，一个九黎，而是大地上所有的和我们一样的人，这些一样的人共同组成了一个群体，叫做人类。可是，我们去怎么才能让人类生存下去呢？那个时候，我和女娲唯一能想到的办法，就是躲避。躲避洪水，躲避火山、躲避地震。但是，这个时候，我们已经不像姜水山洞里的人那样，躲避野兽了。因为野兽已经被我们人类用绳用网罟给制服了，已经没有必要再去躲避他们。自从我们有了火，有了绳索，有了网罟，我们会挖造壕沟以后，任何强大凶猛的野兽，都会被人类所擒获。和这些野兽相比，我们人类不是已经能够战胜一些自然物了吗？那么，我们能不能也像战胜野兽一样去战胜地震、火山、洪水呢？” 黄帝轩辕问：“那，外公和外婆又是怎么做到的呢？” 伏羲又笑了笑，答道：“我们没有其他的方法，唯一的方法就是将人口增多和扩散。因为我们不知道哪里会发生洪水，哪里会发生地震，哪里会发生火山。可是，如果人类很多了以后，我们的生存空间就会越来越大，我们太昊也就从原来的成纪一地，发展到蓝田、大基、新市、陈州、凫山等地。那时我们的基本想法是，即便成纪发生了地震，可是凫山却未必发生；而凫山如果发生了火山，可大基却又不会。而大基发生了洪水，陈州未必就会得到水患。所以，即便是一处人类毁灭了，其他地方的人类还活着，那我们人类就有希望永远地生存下去！” 轩辕道：“既然已经如此，我们以后人类还担心什么？现在除了太昊以外，我们还有有熊、穷桑、涿鹿、九黎、火族呢！这可比原来的太昊地面大多了啊！” 伏羲却叹了一声道：“这种做法，也许只是在小的周期性循环定律中是有用的，可是，如果我们碰上了更大的灾难呢？” 轩辕笑笑问道：“就像大洪水那样大灾难？” 伏羲却道：“对，那场大洪水就是更大的灾难。难道轩辕你没有听玉皇和西王母说过，那场洪水，可是全天下的人几乎都遇见了。如果全天下都爆发大地震，大火山，大灾难，那我们人类往哪里去躲呢？”轩辕听外公伏羲这样问他，脸上红一阵白一阵。他想，他和玉皇西王母之间发生的那些事情，恐怕外公早就知道了，九天玄女能不告诉外公吗？ 于是，轩辕只好道：“是啊，我也听玉皇和西王母说了，玉皇原来所在的有巢部落的涿鹿以北之地、西王母所在的那个什么河流还有九天玄女的家乡都遭到了那场大洪水。” 神农姜炎听了问道：“原来这大地上还有这么多的部落啊！我以前就听外公讲到了玉皇的有巢部落，谁知道还有西王母部落还有九天玄女呢？对了，那西王母为何叫西王母啊？他们是在我们的西边吗？” 伏羲道：“你这样理解也可以。她所以称自己为西王母还有另外的一个原因，在他们西边的人类群落中，部落首领都是叫什么王的。不像我们这里，叫什么族长，后来又叫做什么皇啊帝啊之类的名称。我听那个玉皇说过，她所以给自己叫做西王母，还和女娲娘娘有直接关系。因为这中原大地神州是由女娲管着的，按着他们的称呼，应该是将女娲称为王母的，所以她才叫西王母。” 神农姜炎道：“外公，我明白了。原来这场洪水在整个的大地上都有发生。那躲避，也就只是一种万般无奈的方法了。而外公所说的真正的方法，就是完全明白这太极图所提供给我们人类的宇宙空间运行模式。只有找到了这种根本，我们人类才能真正地掌握了自身的命运！” 伏羲赞道：“还是姜炎明白的快啊！我就是这个意思！大道在天，人类要自醒啊！当然，除了这太极图以外，还有河图、洛书，还有我的八卦和六十四卦所能体现出来的天球模式了！今天你们都在，我现在将我之所思，讲与你等，你们都坐好了，时间很长，请每个人细听明记吧！” 轩辕黄帝听完了，心想：果然，这天球也在外公这里了！ 伏羲说完了，有大喝了几口水，尽量将语调放慢，将语气放清，给每个人有思考之时。他道：“河图，是由五组白圆圈和五组黑点所组成的一个空间模式。白者为阳为天数，黑者为阴为地数。天数由天一天三两个生数、天五变数、天七天九两个成数构成，其和数二十五个。地数由地二地四两个生数、地六地八地十三个成数构成，其和数为三十个。天数二十五与地数三十一起合为天地极数五十五个。可在方位上看来，天一与地六合在北，占据五行之水位，地二与天七和在南，占据五行之火位，天三与地八在东，占据五行之木位，而地四与天九合与西方，占据五行之金位。天五与地十据与中，占据五行之土位。而木、火、土、金、水五行，则含有相生相克的大道。” “我在这里说一下，这木、火、土、金、水五行，并不是我的发现，其最早发现者就是人皇女娲。她过去在烧制陶器的过程中，最早用的就是木、火、土、水这四种物质。这是四种既能看的见又能摸得着的物质，是很好理解的物质。可是金这种物质，并不是我们能一眼就看的见又能摸的着的，他是需要用火烧炼才能炼得出来。以前你们小的时候，我和女娲在一起探求这几种物质之性能，发现，这几种东西是相生相克的。你们看，这水生木，木生火，火生土，这土可不生水，必然是有另外的一种物质是生水的，而且这种物质也是土生的，那么这种物质是什么呢？再反过来看相克，这水克火是你们都知晓的，那么火克土吗？不是，火即不克土，什么克土呢？你们看那些植物，能将土变硬，所以木克土，而土克水。过去发洪水时，是需要用土和石头把水挡住的，这就叫水来土掩啊。所以这中间还是缺少一种物质的，而且这种物质和水、土、火、木具有相生相克的特性。这种物质是什么呢？后来发现是金，最早见到金的应该是最早的火凤凰部落首领燧人。过去岐山曾经爆发了火山，火山过后，燧人在火山烧炼后的大石头里捡到了一根金棍。可是燧人并不会烧制陶器，所以他并不知道这金的用途，当然他更不知道什么是五行了。后来神农也就是姜炎在各地寻求本草的时候，找到了失踪已久的火凤凰部落，发现了这个金棍。神农回来跟我和女娲说，才知道这金正是我们寻找已久的五行之一。那个时候，我的重点是研究八卦，人皇女娲就研究了这金的煅烧之法。可是他不愿意向儿女表白，就由我来说了。我们太昊族人一直传送的女娲炼石补天是什么呢？就是女娲制陶啊！那个时候，女娲用火烧制泥土将它们烧制成比石头还坚硬的器具，这个过程叫做制陶，从意义上说叫做女娲炼石补天。而后来女娲提出五行直说，也是在炼石补天的基础上考虑的，但是人皇女娲娘娘没有完成，而是蚩尤完成了此事！记得在火族、太昊、九黎、有熊这四大部落成形以后，有一次在太昊的家宴上，神农、蚩尤、刑天、夸父都在场，蚩尤显示他的武功时，我曾经把一块五彩石在灶上烧了三天三夜，将一块大石头烧成了很硬的小石头，那就是人皇女娲的发明啊。这叫什么？这就叫女娲炼石补天，为什么说叫炼石补天呢？因为金这种物质并不是天生就有的，可是这金补上了五行。天下没有金，需要炼制而得，这叫天力不足啊，需要人力相补啊，所以我给他取名叫做女娲炼石以补苍天。因而成就五行之大道啊！但是金这种物质，虽是女娲炼石补得，可她一生主要用在制陶上，真正的炼石冶金却是从蚩尤开始的。我给你们讲，蚩尤和黄帝作战屡战屡胜，其关键在于他在女娲的基础上发展了冶金业，练成了金衣金甲，金斧、金戈、金剑。蚩尤在这场大战中虽然死了，可是他的冶金业将光照千秋万代啊！ " 在坐的人频频点头，无不赞赏女娲和蚩尤对冶金业的贡献。轩辕听着，先是将头低下，突然又抬起头道：“听了外公对蚩尤的赞誉，我深表内疚。以前我根本没想到蚩尤对人类的贡献，仅是想他的冶金业具有多大的杀伤力。今天听外公对蚩尤的评价，很中肯。我很后悔，特别是对蚩尤这样一个在冶金业上对人类有过突出成就的人，却死在我的手中，我是不是罪人呢？” 黄帝说完了又将头低下，表示对蚩尤的敬仰之心。 伏羲道：“蚩尤让人类有了冶金这个行业，可轩辕确实说的不错，蚩尤冶金，却是主要为了用兵，而不是主要为了人类其他方面的发展。但是，祝融补上了这一关。我听神农姜炎说过，祝融从蚩尤处学到了冶金之法，在穷桑也开了冶金之窑，烧炼除了不少农具。这些农具和用木材和石器制造出来的农具相比，其硬度和耐磨性大大增强了。这应该是冶金业的主要的方向啊！” 黄帝道：“我们和蚩尤作战，获
