When I was reading book reviews during the coding break, I saw that Laifu was typing Chang... Well, no, I saw a reader reminding me of the difference between 'Hou Yi', 'Dayi' and 'Yi'.
This kind of dispute is actually unnecessary.
The author Jun started writing in notebooks when he was in high school, and then showed it to his classmates in shame, and eagerly watched their comments;
Later, he started having sex in college ( I started writing online literature in Dian Niang). At that time, I was particularly fond of the Nordic mythology and Greek mythology systems (which were greatly influenced by World of Warcraft), so I wrote a lot of online games with Western fantasy backgrounds and World of Warcraft systems (I had already earned a lot of royalties when I was in college. Say, akimbo).
Later I officially entered the full-time codewriting industry and started to get in touch with Chinese mythology...
First year: Those foreign mythological systems are my younger brothers!
The second year: Damn it, how can these mythical stories be inconsistent? Damn it, damn it, King Zhou was hacked. The advanced bronze civilization Shang Dynasty was replaced by Zhou, which was a small part of the bronze civilization. Regress! The mythical stories reflected have also been distorted by various ancient schools of thought! I want to prove Chinese mythology! This is the mission of our Xianxia authors!
Third year: ...the information I came into contact with was all sorted out step by step by later generations.
The fourth year: ...Why is there such a big difference between the Chu Miao mythology system and folklore? Well, Taoism has also compiled a lot of them in different eras. Damn it, there are so many Taoist legends and stories, and they are not unified... ...This place is obviously illogical...Why does this god have so many identities...Why did the ancient emperor have so many affairs? Why did he have so many titles? Not tired! So many myths and stories are the legacy of our ancestors, but this one obviously doesn’t match up with this one! Ahhhhh!
The fifth year: ...it should still be its own system and try to respect the myths accepted by more readers.
Chinese mythology is too complex and cannot be covered by a book called "Sou Shen Lu", nor can it be explained clearly by the "Feng Shen Yan" - Journey to the West system (the author divided them into a system).
Myths and legends are time-sensitive (different from popular stories in ancient times, the most typical example is when Journey to the West was written in the Ming Dynasty). The one with the highest force value in heaven was Wang Lingguan, who led the gods of the Thunder Department to stop the monkeys. That military commander brother, now many ancient Taoist temples go up the mountain to worship Wang Lingguan first)
Myths and legends are also regional.
In addition, myths and legends have been continuously modified and extended by literati and poets of all dynasties, or in the fields, and have grown into a vigorous tree today.
Like Hou Yi shooting the sun, he is first of all a romantic [folklore story] that reflects the ancestors' longing for heroes.
According to the records of "Huainanzi" (a book written in the Western Han Dynasty), as well as the "Fuzi" of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, and archaeological excavations (I remember there are some, I consulted this information a few years ago, I may have memories) (Omission), Yi had the "Xia Quanchen" research, and was connected with the "Shaokang Zhongxing" (Shaokang regained power in the hands of Yi) and other events.
Thus, there is a distinction between 'Hou Yi' and 'Da Yi'.
The story of Hou Yi was originally related to Emperor Jun, who has different meanings. (Leaving aside the ancient times, Emperor Jun most often refers to the Emperor of Heaven in ancient myths and legends. Mostly seen in the Classic of Mountains and Seas system;
Folklore in ancient times was mostly based on the concept of 'celestial sky'. The image of the Jade Emperor became the embodiment of the sky in the Song Dynasty (probably) and was organized by Taoism in ancient times)
In fact, the author feels that although mythical stories are reflections of historical events, many of them cannot be studied.
The background selected for this article is based on Fengshen Yanyi (not entirely based on Fengshen Yanyi), and combines a system compiled by the mainstream Honghuang literature ("Buddha is the Tao·Meng Ruishenji" - —not just swallowing the jujube in one piece), he has created many works.
But we are a myth (emphasis added).
The background serves the story, and the purpose of the story in this article is to make readers happy, have fun reading, and help readers relieve stress. It is not to popularize mythology for everyone, so you don’t need to use all kinds of The system and other mythological settings are used to copy the background story of this "Senior Brother".
As long as you read it from beginning to end, the background logic of this book will be self-consistent.
On this basis, the author will choose the setting of the audience advertisement and make minor adjustments that meet the readers’ expectations.
For example, in the previous chapter, the author modified these details.
In addition, Chinese mythology is vast and profound, ranging from Taoist mythology, folk mythology, and Buddhist mythology to legends and stories from different regions. Not one family, one person, or a team can really explain it all. .
Under the lenses of history, tracing the fundamental origins of mythological stories is actually a matter of little practical significance, and it is impossible to trace it.
Myths are not history and should not be authoritative.
In any case, myths and stories are the treasures left by our ancestors, the romantic feelings of the ancestors of the Chinese nation, and the endless treasure trove that today's creators can explore.
Finally, there is another interesting point that the author has been pondering a few years ago.
"Fengshen Yanyi" was written later than "Journey to the West". Could it be that during the Ming Dynasty, Journey to the West became popular first, and then the author of "Fengshen Yanyi" figured it out and slapped him on the thigh.
‘Hey, I can get a book and explain where the gods in Journey to the West came from! ’
Joke, joke.
In addition, deleting articles is not something you just say casually. If you think it is not fun, you will edit or delete it. Sometimes I delete articles, and my wife, who is also an online article author, finds it shocking.
The input method input is often about three times the number of words I update.
[About update time]:
It seems that it is now inexplicably stable in the afternoon and early morning. The author is struggling for a while and trying to see if he can resume adding updates at noon, night, and early morning..
Finally, let’s talk about the achievement of one million words in this book.
Now the average price is 52,000. There are more and more readers who support the genuine version, and I am liked by more and more readers.
Bow down and thank the readers for their support of the genuine version!
The author will continue to steadily ensure quality and work hard to update to present you with more interesting and fun fairy tales!
The next million words, the next million words, stick to the light comedy of cultivating immortality to the end. I also hope that readers who watch pirated copies will support the original version if they have the spare time!
Continue coding.
