Chapter 10 10. The Book of Mountains and Seas under the Zodiac

According to the twelve signs of the zodiac and the twenty-eight constellations, the azimuths are divided into four parts: the Mountain Classic, the Overseas Classic, the Inner Classic, and the Great Wilderness Classic. Mountain Book: The Shanjing refers to the land. It records the mountains, terrain, geography, and animal and plant ecosystems along the way.As the name suggests, what is described in detail here is the situation in the south, west, north, east and central mountains. Overseas: Overseas longitude refers to the water area, which records the geographical conditions and ecological distribution in the four directions of Zhengnan, Zhengxi, Zhengbei and Zhengdong. It is divided into four parts: Overseas South Longitude, Overseas West Longitude, Overseas North Longitude and Overseas East Longitude .

Overseas: The internal longitude refers to the waters between the open sea and the inland, and it is also divided into four parts: the south longitude of the sea, the west longitude of the sea, the north longitude of the sea, and the east longitude of the sea. Great Wilderness: The Great Wilderness Longitude is far away on the mainland outside the sea, and it is divided into four parts: the Great Wilderness East Longitude, the Great Wilderness South Longitude, the Great Wilderness West Longitude, and the Great Wilderness North Longitude.In addition to these four parts, there are still some unidentified waters in the inland, and the information in this part is summarized as Hai Nei Jing.

It should be noted that the Shanjing part of this book should be written records in ancient times, but since the beginning of the Haijing, it has included the Overseas South Jing, Overseas West Jing, Overseas North Jing, Overseas East Jing, Hainei South Jing, and Hainei West Jing The thirteen parts, namely, the Great Wilderness North Classic, the Great Wilderness North Classic, the Great Wilderness East Classic, the Great Wilderness South Classic, the Great Wilderness West Classic, the Great Wilderness North Classic and the Hainei Classic, are all derived from an ancient painting, which is a reflection of the characters and animals on the picture. Text description.This painting is likely to be the ancient mural found in the cave during the time of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.However, the records about this picture are completely integrated with the Shanjing part and form a whole.

It can be seen from this that a book should have been lost, but it was "rescued" back in the time of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.According to the description in the book, the animal and plant ecosystems in different regions are quite different in inland, inland sea, outer sea and wilderness. The general rules are as follows: The further inland and closer to the inland sea, the lower the degree of evolution of organisms, and there are many primitive species among them. The farther away, the farther away from the wilderness, the higher the degree of evolution of creatures, and there are many future species among them.

The more evolved species, the more closely related to our future. The less evolved a species is, the more closely related it is to our traditions. Here, the background of our traditional culture and the theory of biological evolution form a surprising paradox. Why? This is exactly the answer we need to find in the book.
