    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 record of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is serious and serious, that is to say, the distortion in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not a matter of attitude, but a matter of ability, and the ability of the authors of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" determines the authenticity of the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

    The Classic of Mountains and Seas is written by Wu Zhi, and the records in it are parallel to the pre-Qin Confucian exposition of ancient legends, and the perspectives and concepts of the two are very different, which leads to Confucianism.

    Chinese traditional culture as the main body.

    Regard the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" as a heresy, Liu Xin of the Han Dynasty.

    At that time, it was still recognized that the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" contained it, and the Jin people were also keen to interpret the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and then it was completely reduced to a grotesque small book, and became an enlightenment book for cultivating children's imagination.

    The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that we see now, in the process of preservation and copying, has caused serious loss of simplification and missimplified situation, so it is basically impossible to restore the earliest records by relying on the existing texts, especially the geographical chapters such as "The Classic of Mountains" and "The Book of the Sea", the context is closely linked, and the misplacement of a brief scroll may make the whole text completely out of order.

    The reason why the Classic of Mountains and Seas is objective is that the group of its authors, the shamans, have no clear political ideas and statecraft, and are not swayed by secular power, they are only recording the world they know and the stories of heroes (heroes are between humans and gods, usually tribal leaders). The ancestral legends told by Confucianism are not recorded for the sake of recording, but borrowed the stories of the ancestors to expound their own governance concepts, which are mixed with private goods, and the authenticity of the history of private goods can be imagined.

    We read the Zhuangzi

    At the time, they all felt that the stories contained in "Zhuangzi" were very absurd and exaggerated, and obviously inconsistent with objective facts, this is Zhuang Zhou.

    Zhuang Zhou's attitude of telling stories is to illustrate his truth, and he also intends to let people know that what he is telling is not historical facts, which is a rigorous attitude at this time and does not mislead future generations. And the attitude of Confucianism is very ambiguous, they deliberately combine their own truth with ancient legends, such as Yao's benevolence, Shun's filial piety, which is obviously their own private goods, they have to be set on the ancestors, they themselves know what is going on, but it makes people feel very real, their attitude is indeed not rigorous, later generations write history books, they will treat these "private goods" as history.

    The Classic of Mountains and Seas is different from both the Zhuangzi and Confucianism, and they are indeed rigorously recording what they think is the truth, and what they think is not necessarily true, but it is relatively the most true.

    In the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", it is recorded that there is a small people's country, called the country of Yuyu. Coincidentally, in central Africa, there is a special tribe called the Pygmies, whose average adult height is only about 1.5 meters, which is a real Lilliputian.

    Also, it is recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that at the turn of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, a merchant tribe in the east disappeared. After Mr. Su Xuelin's research, he found that it was probably during this period that special tribes appeared in the Americas. They greet each other when they meet:

    Yin Di'an? Over time, people called them Indians.

    According to Mr. Su Xuelin's research, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" should be written by the Sumerians in the two river basins, during the Warring States Period, Persian scholars brought this book to China, and our scholars added and deleted it, turning the foreign gods in it into the gods of China, and the foreign place names were also replaced by Chinese place names. For example, the so-called Kunlun Xuan is Harappa. Nuwa is Nyingmahe, Fuxi is Enki, and Dijun is Enlil.

    The Classic of Mountains and Seas records the legend of Nuwa mending the sky. American scholars believe that Nuwa mending the heavens is a native Chinese myth, but it is not known when it was incorporated into some elements of the Western flood story. However, in the 80s, experts found a Neolithic cultural site 5,500 years ago in Lingyuan City, Liaoning Province, and named it Niuheliang Ruins.

    The site is not large, only one square kilometer, but 1,500 copper-smelting crucibles have been excavated inside, as well as jade turtles without heads, tails and feet. After research, American scholars believe that copper smelting is not an easy task in the new era. The fact that such a large number of copper smelting cauldrons can be unearthed here indicates that this place should be the center of influence of a certain tribe.

    Moreover, they must have something big to do when they smelt so much copper.

    And the jade turtle is also very strange. The ancient Chinese regarded the turtle as a mascot, but its appearance was generally intact. This is the first time that a turtle has no feet or a head like this has been excavated.

    Obviously, this mutilated turtle certainly could not be used for sacrifice. So, what does it mean? Turning to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", we found that Nuwa used refined multicolored stones to mend the sky, and she once used the four legs of a giant turtle to support the earth and keep it balanced.

    Seeing this, I believe you understand, right? Yes, the matter of Nuwa mending the sky recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" may be true.
