Who is Chiyou , and is Chiyou really a monster ?

Who is "Chiyou", and is Chiyou really a "monster"?

When it comes to China, we will all say that we are the descendants of Yan and Huang and the children of China, but in addition to the two emperors of Yan and Huang as our ancestors In the long history of China for 5,000 years, who else are the tribal leaders of the same period as the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor? Speaking of which, many people will think of "Chi You", but many people think that Chi You is a monster, a monster recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", a bad guy, and the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor are opposite, but neutral and objective, and in terms of history, Chi You was also a tribal leader at that time, and the tribe he led was still very powerful. In the tribal era, people already had the concept of their own territory, so the tribes of the Yandi Yellow Emperor and the leader of Chi especially fought for territory with each other.

At that time, the holders ruled the Shandong Peninsula region, and the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor occupied the Central Plains, Hebei and other regions. At this time, the tribe that held the leadership was not only not backward, but even very developed. At a time when the Central Plains occupied by the Yan and Yellow Emperors were still using stone tools and wood for labor, the Chiyou tribe had already begun to learn to pour bronze tools and began to make their own bronze tools.

In addition, he also led his tribe to develop an agricultural civilization, reclaiming land to grow crops and raising livestock. He also realized that Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou began to compete with each other for territory later, and the Chiyou tribe was defeated in the battle for territory, and his territory was gradually occupied by the Yellow Emperor, and he was also the loser of the battle, and was ruthlessly smeared by history after the defeat of the war. <>

There are some ancient books that it is recorded that he was a subordinate of Emperor Yan, and later the two clashed, resulting in a war. Some people say that Chiyou is a descendant of Fuxi, and has a common ancestor with Emperor Yan, what is the real situation, we can't verify, but what can be said is that Chiyou and Emperor Yan, the Yellow Emperor are the ancestors of our Chinese sons and daughters, those who say that Chiyou is a three-headed and six-armed, invulnerable monster is very hateful, are all verifiable, and they must not exist false legends. <>

In fact, it is said that only Emperor Yan had a war with Chiyou at the beginning, and Emperor Yan later failed. Afterwards. asked for the help of the Yellow Emperor, and the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor joined forces to defeat Chi You.

Chiyou is an excellent tribal leader, he treats his people very kindly, and leads his tribe to move forward together, has a strong cohesion, in the verifiable historical records, Chiyou is a tribal leader of the god of war level who has made great achievements. According to the cultural relics unearthed at that time, we can only speculate why Emperor Yan and Emperor Huangdi were so cruel to Chi You later, and even smeared him. At that time, Chiyou had already mastered some relatively advanced technology, and they had begun to use various metals**, if the Chiyou tribe was not completely wiped out at that time, it was very likely that they would attack again and defeat the Yandi Yellow Emperor tribe.

From this point of view, the elimination of all the Chiyou tribes is also in line with the mentality of the ruling leader at that time.

Chiyou is the chief of the Jiuli tribe, Chiyou is not a monster, he is just a myth of later generations.

Chi You is the leader of a tribe in ancient times, he is not a monster, he and Emperor Yan are in the same tribe, brave and good at fighting, and his skills are extraordinary.

Chiyou is a villain among the mythical characters, either the monster doesn't know, or according to the history books, he is a villain, and a super bad villain can happen.

Animal husbandry is the main industry in the north, and cultivation is the main cultivation in the Yellow River Basin. The flooding of the Yellow River forced the upper and lower reaches of the Yellow River to unite and be called the descendants of Yan and Huang, and the leader was called the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor often invaded the small tribes in the north, forcing the small tribes in the north to unite, and more than 80 tribes formed an alliance, and the leader was called Chiyou.

The Yellow Emperor invaded the north too far, saw strange animals, and sandstorms, and returned in vain. (Common sense, there was confrontation between the ancients, but the main contradiction was the confrontation between man and nature). The north is bitter cold, using animal skins to keep out the cold, and the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River are covered with leaves, and the northerners are called monsters (the volunteers treat blacks as ghosts).

Chiyou is an ancient tribal leader, Chiyou is different from people in appearance, there are still differences,

Actually, Chiyou. Not a monster, but a man.

According to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

In the introduction, Chiyou is a name called Jiuli in ancient times.

The chief of the tribe, and at the same time, Chiyou is still in the position of chief. In other words, Chiyou was one of the supreme rulers of power in their time.

However, it is described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that Chi You's appearance is very peculiar, and he belongs to the category of monsters in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", with eight feet, a copper head and an iron forehead, three heads and six arms. At the same time, Chiyou has a total of eighty-one brothers, each of whom is a strong, heroic and invincible existence.

In addition, Chi You himself did evil, which made the people at that time miserable, which led to the fear of Chi You in the world, Emperor Yan.

and the Yellow Emperor took on the act of protecting the people, and fought against Chiyou for justice, which is the famous battle in history.

Of course, this is only a record in ancient books, and there is no way to know what the truth is.

Finally, according to the further study of historical materials by modern people, Chiyou is not as stated in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". In antiquity.

Chiyou led his tribe to continuously develop farming, iron smelting, and education knowledge and skills in the borders of the Central Plains.

I think so, the battle of Zhuolu.

It is an eternal truth that the winner is the king and the loser is the villain, and after the supreme ruler wins, he naturally has the right to change the record of the historical books, and the truth and falsehood are all integrated according to the wishes of the contemporary leaders.

Chi You is a human being. Chi You, the leader of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times in Chinese myths and legends, was brave and good at fighting, and was worshiped as the god of war. Chiyou has eighty-one brothers, all of whom have copper heads and iron foreheads, ten fingers and toes, and all of them have extraordinary skills.

About 5,000 years ago, the battle of Zhuolu between the Jiuli tribe and the Yanhuang tribe (modern classification) took place, and Chiyou was killed in the battle, and some of his people were integrated into the Yanhuang tribe.

Contribute

In ancient times, Chi You led the Jiuli clan tribe to develop agriculture, smelt copper and iron, make five soldiers, create a hundred arts, tomorrow Taoism, and rationalize education in this Central Plains, making outstanding contributions to the formation of early Chinese civilization. The area at the junction of Henan, Shandong and Hebei is known as the "capital of Jiuli". In Zhuolu County, Hebei Province, there are the remains of Chiyou Tomb, Yellow Emperor Spring (Hanquan), Chiyou Sanzhai, Chiyou Spring, Bagua Village, Dingchetai, Chiyou Blood-stained Mountain, Tuta, Shangxiaqiqi, Qiaoshan and other ruins.

Is there really such a person as Chiyou in history?

Recently, with the release of the film "Emperor Xuanyuan", some characters in the film have also attracted the attention of friends. The film is about the plot of the Yellow Emperor, the Yan Emperor and Chiyou, the ancestors of Chinese civilization, and tells the history of the rise and fall of the three major tribes in ancient times. Tell us the story of the Yellow Emperor who led his people to cross the Yellow River, fought fierce beasts, and how he united with Emperor Yan to fight Chiyou, and finally unified the story of the Chinese nation.

So does Chiyou, the leader of Jiuli in the film, really exist in history? Are all his legends true?

Does Chiyou really exist?

Chi You, one of the characters in Chinese myths and legends, is the leader of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, brave and good at fighting, and is worshiped as the god of war. According to the legend of Xiangye Sparrow, Chiyou has eighty-one brothers, all of whom have extraordinary skills. He led his brothers to fight with the Yan and Huang Emperors, and the Jiuli and Yan and Huang tribes launched a fierce battle against the deer, and finally Chi You was beheaded by the Yellow Emperor, and his tribesmen gradually integrated into the Yan and Huang tribes, forming the Chinese nation.

According to the records of "Water Scripture Note, Volume 13" and "Classic of Mountains and Seas", Chi You is a real person. In the modern south of our country, there are many areas that have the habit of serving the great god of Chiyou, such as Yao, Li, She and other ethnic minorities have the custom of sacrificing to Chiyou. Chiyou is the leader of the ancient Jiuli tribe, and according to legend, he is also the ancestor of today's Miao people, and strictly speaking, it is also the ancestor of some Han people.

In ancient times, Chiyou led the Jiuli tribe people to develop farming, smelting copper and iron, making five soldiers, creating a hundred arts, tomorrow's Taoism, and rationalization, and also made great contributions to the formation of early Chinese civilization.

At present, Wenshang County, Shandong Province, has also made breakthroughs in the study of Chiyou culture. After argumentation, it was also determined that Wenshang County was the location of the first mound of Chiyou, so it was called the "capital of Dongyi". Nowadays, the Chiyou Tomb in Nanwang Town, Wenshang County has become a cultural holy place for people of all ethnic groups across the country to seek their roots and ask their ancestors and worship Chiyou.

And now Henan, Shandong and Hebei junction area are called "the capital of Jiuli", in Hebei Province Zhulu County also existing Chiyou tomb, Chiyou Sanzhai, Chiyou spring, Bagua Village and other ruins.

Chiyou is a real historical figure in history, but due to the relatively backward development of civilization at that time, the events that happened at that time were not fully recorded. As for the mythical image of Chiyou's characters, it was also because the records were not clear, and they were gradually mythologized by later generations.

Yes, but history and legends are not the same.

Legend has it that the head of the ox is like a cow's head, with two wings on its back, and is the leader of the ox totem and bird totem clans. He had eighty-one brothers, all of whom had copper heads and iron foreheads, eight arms, and nine toes, all of whom had extraordinary abilities. About 5,000 years ago, the Yellow Emperor in Zhuolu County, Hebei Province, in the territory of Zhuolu County, Hebei Province, fought a war with the Chiyou tribe - the Battle of Zhuolu, Chiyou died in battle, and the Dongyi Jiuli tribe merged into the Yanhuang tribe, forming the earliest subject of today's Chinese nation.

In fact, Chi You may be a relatively fierce ** tribal chieftain, who led troops to fight with Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and was defeated and killed, as for his strange image, they are all legends, and there is no evidence to prove that there were other humanoid races in ancient times.

Indeed, there is such a man. He is one of the three ancestors of China, there are many people who don't know and think that Chiyou and his brother are monsters, first of all, I want to state that the so-called Chiyou Emperor's face is like a cow's head is the helmet that Chiyou Emperor wore when he went to war, and the wings on his back are the armor of Chiyou Emperor. This equipment of Emperor Chiyou is a battle armor specially created for Emperor Chiyou to fight, and this equipment is exclusive to emperors to have double horns and wings.

It is a symbol of domineering domination in the world. The meaning of the flying dragon in the sky. Chiyou has 81 brothers refers to 81 big tribes, and 81 brothers all have copper-headed iron arms refer to Chiyou's 81 tribes all wearing armor, don't mistake it for really monsters.

It's just that the ancients recorded that Chiyou was powerful and mythical. The Chiyou Group Army is the first group army to use copper to build ** equipment. And the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor only used stone tools, ivory, and bamboo as the two group armies.

Chiyou and Yanhuang are both expanding their territory, Emperor Chi and Emperor Yan have a bad encounter when expanding their territory, there is a big war between the two sides, Emperor Yan can't beat Emperor Chiyou, and Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang fight against Emperor Chiyou together. Emperor Yan and Yellow Emperor were defeated in nine battles and nine times Emperor Chiyou, and in the end, Chiyou was betrayed by his subordinates before he was defeated and died. Yan Huang has won.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and it didn't take long for the Yellow Emperor to kill Emperor Yan and unify the world. After the Yellow Emperor unified the world, the Chiyou Emperor and the Yandi tribe merged into the Yellow Emperor tribe and learned the Yellow Emperor tribal culture. Yan Huang Chi is especially the third ancestor of China.
