Chapter 22 12. Don't let the leader get angry

We say that mythology is twisted with logic. For example, in the previous section, it was said that Zhuanxu's son gave birth to Laotong, and Laotong gave birth to Zhu Rong, the god of fire, so this Zhurong should be Zhuanxu's grandson.But in this section, the conclusion of the previous section is suddenly overturned, and Zhuanxu has two grandchildren. In the wilderness, there is a mountain named Riyue Mountain, which is also known as Tianshu.Wu Yu Tianmen, where the sun and the moon enter.There is a god, the human face has no arms, and the two feet belong to the head. The name of the mountain is Boo.Zhuanxu gave birth to an old boy, and the old boy gave birth to Li Qiong again. The emperor ordered Chong to sacrifice to heaven and Li Qiong to go down to earth.Going to the ground is a choke, and it is in the west pole, and it is the second time to travel the sun, moon and stars.

——"Shan Hai Jing Da Huang Xi Jing" It is said here that in the middle of the wilderness, there is a mountain named Riyue Mountain, which is the hub of the sky.The main peak of this mountain is called Tianmen Mountain of Wuzhen, where the sun and moon descend.There is a god who looks like a human being but has no arms. His feet are turned upside down and connected to his head. His name is Hush.Zhuanxu gave birth to the old boy, and the old boy gave birth to Chong and Li. Zhuanxu ordered Chong to support the sky and lift it up with all his strength, and ordered Li to press down on the ground with all his strength.So Li went underground and choked. He was at the westernmost end of the earth, in charge of the order of the sun, moon and stars.

This story is much less well-known than Kuafu Chasing the Sun, Jingwei Reclaiming the Sea, and Xingtianwu's relatives, and most Chinese people don't know this story. why? Because this story is too weird, even if you read it a hundred or eighty times, you still can't figure out what the story is talking about.A story that no one can understand, of course, the probability of being spread is not too high. So what is this story about? Such a bunch of key words can let us see immediately. No wonder this story is obscure. It turns out that this is about the ruler's art of manipulating people.To be precise, this is the dissatisfaction expressed by the people at the time against the insidious and treacherous rulers.

It is said here that most of the wicked rulers have a habit of torturing the masses. For example, during the day, you can’t find the leader everywhere, but when you get off work, the leader suddenly comes, full of enthusiasm. He called on everyone to work overtime and do more work. In fact, when everyone was working hard, the leader was sleeping under the covers.There is really no curse to meet such a leader. Doing work for the leader, without exception, will be so busy that you will hit the back of your head with your feet. It seems that this sentence has existed as early as ancient times, and the ancients even drew a picture about it. Two feet, the image has reached this level, it is really breathtaking.

Even if you are so busy that you hit the back of your head, you can't complain, or in other words, you must not let the leader hear your complaint. The leader only wants the result, don't complain. Moreover, the leaders are stubborn and self-willed. They will figure out many inexplicable jobs to force you to work overtime, and the really valuable jobs have always been taken by the leaders' cronies.For those people who are particularly capable, the leaders often send them far away, as far as the sky. The story says that if you are more capable, you'd better walk away by yourself and don't let the leader get angry.

Originally, this complaint lacked the highlights of quick memory, coupled with subtle distortions, it is really not easy for future generations to understand this story.
