Is everything recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas true?

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is an ancient book of the pre-Qin period, and it is the oldest geography book rich in myths and legends. It mainly describes ancient geography, products, mythology, witchcraft, religion, etc., as well as ancient history, medicine, folk customs, ethnicity, etc. In addition, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" also records some strange events in the form of a running account, and there is still a great deal of controversy about these events.

The book has 18 chapters and about 31,000 words. There are 5 scriptures of the Five Tibetan Mountains, 4 scriptures of overseas, 5 scriptures of the sea, and 4 scriptures of the Great Wilderness. "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" made 13 articles, not counting the Great Wilderness Classic and the Sea Classic.

The content of the book is based on 5 articles of the Five Tibetan Mountain Sutras and 4 overseas scriptures as a group; 4 articles of the Sea and the Sea as a group; And 5 articles of the Great Wilderness Sutra and 1 chapter of the Sea Sutra at the end of the book are as a group. The organizational structure of each group has its own beginning and end, and it is coherent, with an outline and a purpose. A group of the Five Tibetan Mountain Sutras is divided into chapters according to the order of south, west, north, east, and middle, and each article is divided into several sections, and the previous and second verses are connected with related sentences, so that the relationship between the sections is very clear.

The book records these things by region, not by time. Most of the things recorded start from the south, then go west, then go north, and finally reach the central part of the continent (Kyushu). Kyushu is surrounded by the East China Sea, the West Sea, the South China Sea, and the North Sea.

Ancient China has also been the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" as a historical view, is a necessary reference book for Chinese historians of all generations, because the book was written for a long time, even Sima Qian wrote the "Historical Records" also believed: "To the "Yu Benji", "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" all the monsters, Yu dare not say it. ”

Some are true history, but some are legends.

It is real, but due to the long time, geographical changes, and the fact that people at that time wrote very mythical about many things they didn't understand, the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas looks particularly fantastical.

We know that the Classic of Mountains and Seas was compiled from the Warring States Period to the early and middle Han Dynasty, which is too far away from modern times. At first, it was regarded as an ancient book of Zhiwei, but after some strange animals in the Classic of Mountains and Seas were discovered, some people discovered that the Classic of Mountains and Seas was not a completely fictional material.

The Book of Mountains and Seas records animals such as pufferfish, baby fish, and parrots. Some of these animals are more anthropomorphic, while others are a combination of the characteristics of many other common animals. In the eyes of some, this is an impossible animal.

It is because of people's subjective thoughts that the Classic of Mountains and Seas is regarded as a strange material, and no one has really studied the animals that exist in it. With the gradual development of science and technology in modern times, some scholars have discovered that some of the animals recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas are real.

Now it can be seen that the earliest version is Jin Guopu's "The Legend of Mountains and Seas". However, the title of the book "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is mentioned in the "Historical Records", and the earliest book included is "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles". As for its real author, the predecessors believed that it was Yu and Boyi, and it was edited by Liu Xiang and Liu Xin in the Western Han Dynasty to form a hand-me-down book.

It's about expressing a real content with something that isn't quite real.

Whether the Classic of Mountains and Seas is really true remains to be verified, and after research, most of the geographical locations are consistent with the records in the book, and of course there are also places where the original text is not attached.

From the point of view of writing techniques, the Book of Mountains and Seas does not look like a mythological story. There has never been a myth or story that is based on mere memories, which is not in line with common sense.

Anyone who writes **, generally except for the protagonist, the supporting role will never emphasize his attributes, and will not write such cumbersome details, which will affect the overall thinking. Therefore, from the perspective of all kinds of common sense, this is definitely not a book that can be written on a whim, even the four famous books will not describe meaningless things, nor will they be created out of the real social background.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not necessarily true, but the recording process of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is serious, that is to say, the distortion in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not a matter of attitude, but of ability.

Some say that it is a document describing a distant and ancient time, recording the real things that really existed on Earth at that time. It's just that later many creatures became extinct and the earth was separated, so today we can't find anything credible from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is an ancient book of Chinese Zhiwei, which was generally written by the Chu State or Bashu people from the middle and late Warring States period to the early and middle Han Dynasty. It is also an absurd and strange book. Ancient and modern scholars have different understandings of the nature of the content of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", such as Sima Qian's blunt statement that its content is too absurd and nonsensical, so he does not dare to refer to it when writing history, such as Lu Xun believes that "the book of witches and scholars".

Most scholars now believe that the Classic of Mountains and Seas is an early and valuable work of geography.

According to the research of Ding Zhenzong of Malaysia, the stories in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" may not be fake, and it is very likely that people at that time did not know enough to describe things that transcend human daily life and high technology.

There are also real animals in it, such as zebras, which are available now.

So there's a good chance that it really exists.

Although many of the stories in the Classic of Mountains and Seas are mythological stories, the actual geographical situation, people's customs, religious beliefs and other historical and cultural records recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas have a positive effect on the study of history and culture in today's society. In addition, the Classic of Mountains and Seas also plays a crucial role in the development of today's tourism industry.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is real. However, due to the long period of time, the geographical changes, and the fact that people at that time wrote very mythological about many things they did not understand, the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas looks particularly fantastical.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas was compiled from the Warring States Period to the early and middle Han Dynasty, and it is too far away from modern times. At first, it was regarded as an ancient book of Zhiwei, but after some strange animals in the Book of Mountains and Seas were discovered, some people discovered that the Book of Mountains and Seas was not a complete and fully fictitious information.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is an important classic of pre-Qin China, and it was not written at one time or by one person. Not all of its contents are true, and there are many legends.

The hand-me-down version of the Classic of Mountains and Seas has a total of 18 volumes, including 5 volumes of the Classic of Mountains and 13 volumes of the Book of the Sea, the content of which is mainly the geographical knowledge in folklore, including mountains and rivers, minerals, nationalities, products, medicines, sacrifices, witch doctors, etc., and has preserved a lot of popular knowledge including Kuafu's day-by-day, Nuwa's mending the sky, Jingwei reclamation, Dayu's water control, etc.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas was written in the Warring States Period to the early Han Dynasty, the author is unknown, and the Book of Changes, the Yellow Emperor's Neijing, and known as the three strange books of antiquity.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is an encyclopedia of ancient social life with many contents about ancient geography, history, mythology, astronomy, animals, plants, medicine, religion, anthropology, ethnology, oceanography and the history of science and technology. Many things in the book are true, but some of them cannot be proved to be true, such as some animals.

The author of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is unknown, but most writers believe that it was collected in a long-term historical society. The descriptions in it are all illusory, but now people have found that some animals are very similar to the strange beasts inside.

I can't find a specific author, but I guess that it was made by the Chu State or the Bashu people, and it is impossible to investigate whether the content recorded in it is true or not.

The author of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" does not know who it is, and the content is certainly not true, and there is no history to confirm it.

Now it can be seen that the earliest version is Jin Guopu's "The Legend of Mountains and Seas". However, the title of the book "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is mentioned in the "Historical Records", and the earliest book included is "Hanshu ...

It has not yet been decided.

However, it is very likely that it has a close relationship with the state of Chu or Bashu.

As for the authenticity, the author must have written it as if it were true, but in rigorous argumentation, some statements may have a lot of elements of falsification.

It has now been confirmed that many of the records in it are true, and perhaps all of them are true.

The original author of the book Classic of Mountains and Seas can no longer be found. However, the geographical records in it are relatively true.
