One of the courtiers of the Xia Dynasty Emperor Qi was named Meng Tu, who was the god in charge of The Badi.
Someone went to Meng Tu to ask him to try the case, and he arrested the person who had blood stained on his clothes, and the person who was arrested asked him to spare his life.
MengTu lives on a mountain, which is to the west of Danshan.
Danshan is to the south of Danyang, and Danyang is a vassal of Ba.
exegesis:
- Xia Houqi: Emperor Qi of the Xia Dynasty.
- Si Shen: The god of authority.
- Ba: An ancient ethnic name, mainly distributed in the area of present-day eastern Sichuan and western Hubei.
- Please live: Ask for life.
- 丹山：一说今重庆与湖北交界的巫山的支脉。

Meng Tu:
The word "MengTu" can be traced back to Xia Qi
"Bamboo Book Chronicle", "In the eighth year of Emperor Qi, the emperor made Meng Tu into the Ba Xuan lawsuit. ”。
In the eighth year of Xia Qi, he sent Meng Tu to the place of "Ba" (that is, near today's western Sichuan and eastern Hubei) to settle the dispute.
据考古资料显示，孟氏，华夏民族最为古老的姓氏之一，起源于中国第一个世袭制王朝夏朝时期的孟涂氏封国。
"Meng Tu Guo" first appeared in the Dayu period
The Book of Shang records: "Meng, the place name of Hebei, is called Mengjin. ”。
有学者认为，孟津是黄河上的一处渡口名字，武王伐纣时会盟八百诸侯的地方。
根据文献记载，搁在今天“孟津”就是河南省洛阳市的孟津县。
Mengjin County
Meng Tu is a judicial justice
夏王启派孟涂前往巴地做主管诉讼的神。 “神”也许是一种官职的称呼。
相传，在巴地，有人到孟涂那里去告状，在孟涂的法典里只有一条：“说谎的人衣服上会有血迹”。 所以告状的人中有谁的衣服沾上血迹，就会被孟涂拘禁起来。
The Kingdom of Mengtu is to the west of "Badi":
"Ba", in the pre-Qin period, referred to the "Baguo", and today it is the area where "Chongqing, Hubei and Xiang" meet.
In summary, mengtu's theoretical position should be in the area where "Chongqing, Hubei and Xiang" meet.
