Gusheshan, Linfen

Linfen Gushe (Y è) mountain is located in the west of Linfen City, Shanxi Province. It is called Taoist Holy Land and fairyland holy mountain because of Zhuangzi's "despise Gushe's mountain, where God and man live". It is one of the first scenic spots announced by Shanxi provincial government in 1987. "Gushe (Y è) real person" is the God of holding snow, for this reason: "there are gods and men living in the mountain of scorning Gushe. Skin like ice and snow, graceful as virgin. They don't eat grains, drink wind and dew, take advantage of clouds, resist flying dragons, and swim all over the world. Its spirit condenses, causes the thing not to be faulted, the pestilence and the year grain ripe It is because of the sentence "skin like ice and snow" in Zhuangzi's prose that the ancients named the god man on Gushe mountain as the God of holding snow. Where is Gushe mountain? Zhuangzi said it was in the "Yang of Fenshui", which is now in Shanxi. However, a recent reading of the book of mountains and seas reveals new findings. "Shanhaijing · dongshanjing" says: "another 380 miles south, it's called Gushe mountain. It has no vegetation and lots of water. Another three hundred li of south water and a hundred li of quicksand is called the mountain of Beigu shooting. It has no vegetation and many stones. " According to this, gusheshan will never be in Shanxi, but seems to be in the southeast. "Shanhaijing · haineibeijing" also says: "lie Gu shoots in Haihe Prefecture. Shegu state is in the sea, belonging to liegushe. Southwest, surrounded by mountains. " "Huangdi chapter" also said: "lie Gu shooting mountain in the Haihe island. There are gods and men on the mountain. They suck wind and drink dew. They don't eat grain. Their hearts are like springs and their shapes are like virgins. If you don't nestle up and love, the immortal saint is your minister. " According to this, modern people speculate that "liegu Sheshan" may be in Japan or the Philippines. Zhu Ziqing, a friend of foxes in Jinan, is a friend of foxes, but he can't see his form when he hears the news. There have always been two opinions about the location of gusheshan. One is liegu Sheshan, in the East China Sea; the other is Jingu Sheshan, in the south of Shanxi Province. The original text of "xiaoyaoyou" is like this: "there are gods and men living in the mountain of Jingu shooting. The skin is like ice and snow, graceful as virginity, not eating grains, drinking dew, riding clouds, flying dragons, and swimming all over the world.... " From this we can see that Jingu Sheshan is where the immortals live. Later generations (specifically after the Tang Dynasty) decided that the mountain of Chigu Shezhi was located in the area of xiandonggou in the northwest of Linfen, constructed a lot of cultural landscapes, derived various legends and stories, and has become a famous tourist attraction so far. There are two reasons for this result. One is that xiandonggou is in the suburb of Pingyang, which has been the political and economic center of Linfen basin for a long time. The other is that King Yao once visited Sizi in jigushan, and Pingyang is the legendary capital of Yao. However, this view is not in line with the spirit of the original text. Some people who hold this view are not strong enough. Many times, they extend it to Fenxi and Huozhou in the north and Xiangfen and Xinjiang in the south. Some people think that the mountain of Chigu Shezhi is a fairy mountain invented by Zhuangzi, which does not exist in reality. In fact, by studying the original text of xiaoyaoyou carefully, we can find that gusheshan not only exists, but also the author's description of its geographical location is very accurate. "Yao governed all the people in the world and pacified the domestic affairs. Once upon a time, I saw that the mountain where Si Zi despised Gu's shooting, and the Yang of Fen River, were lost all over the world. " According to this story, King Yao once visited the four sons (namely, the four gods and men) in the mountain of Chigu Shezhi. Who are the four gods and men? Xu you is one, and the nest father is also one. The other two authors did not say so. So, where is the mountain of Jingu shooting? It lies in the "Yang of Fenshui". The author says it clearly and definitely. People who have a little knowledge of ancient culture know this. However, since its source, Fenshui has been flowing from north to south. The two sides of the river can only be said to be east and west of the river. Only when it reaches Xinjiang can it turn west. The Yang of Fenshui, that is, the north of Fenshui, can only be the junction of Xinjiang, Jishan, Hejin and Xiangning. Located in the Yang of Fenshui, the Jingu Sheshan mountain can only be the mountains in this area. In fact, the first capital of China was not built in Pingyang, but in Yaodu village, Nanfan Town, Jiangxian County, Shanxi Province. For 5000 years, the name of this village has not changed. After more than 20 years in power, King Yao moved his capital to Pingyang (now near Fen). See Liu Yongchang, the hometown of King Yao in Jiangxian county (literature and history monthly, 2006, 2). With this understanding, we seem to be able to correct the doubts and fallacies about the location of Jingu Sheshan in the northwest of Linfen. In xiaoyaoyou, when he wrote about Kunpeng, who was swimming three thousand miles and swaying up into the sky, he repeatedly mentioned a place name, "the one who lives in the south, Tianchi." "In the north of poverty, there is the sea of hell, and the lake of heaven." In the northwest of Yunqiu mountain, there is a village named Tianchi in Weizhuang Township, Ningxian county. I don't know whether it is a coincidence or some inevitable connection. Thus, it can be seen that the exact position of jigushan is the mountain range at the junction of Xiangning and Xinjiang, Jishan and Hejin. There is no doubt about this, and historical mistakes must be corrected. specific
