Hearing is false, seeing is believing, this is our habit of knowing the world, but what we have not seen may not have existed.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas records a strange world, its erudition, the knowledge it covers, has completely exceeded people's imagination, and it is a real world.
Maybe many people think that it is fake, but it is just something imagined by some idle and bored people.
But don't forget, what kind of erudition, what kind of vision can combine astronomy, geography, feng shui, animals, architecture, etc., I think there may not be such a person in this world, not to mention that this Book of Mountains and Seas still existed a long time ago.
It's like recording a world, leaving us with the information that remains of that world, and if no one can live that long, I want to believe that it was spread by an old monster that has lived for countless years, and wants us to understand the history of that fault.
I remember that in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, there are many sentences describing dragons, and one of them says: "Beyond the Northwest Sea, north of chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain. There is a god, a man with a serpent's face and a naked body, and his eyes are straight, and his eyes are obscure, and his vision is clear. No food, no sleep, the wind and rain are gurudwara. It is the nine yin of candles, and it is called the candle dragon. The god of The Bell Mountain, known as the Candle Yin, is regarded as day, sleep for night, blowing for winter, calling for summer, not drinking, not eating, not breathing, breathing for the wind; thousands of miles long, in the east of the dawn, it is a thing, a human face, a snake body, red, living under the Bell Mountain. ”
These sentences bring the candle dragon's living place, shape, and habits to life, as if this is the case, it should be so.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Great Wilderness of the West Classic": "To the south of the West Sea, on the shore of quicksand, after the red water, before the black water, there is a big mountain, known as the Hill of Kunlun." ”
The Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Three Classics of the Western Ci: "The Hill of Kunlun is the capital under the Emperor Of Shiwei." ”
"Shan Hai Jing, Hai Nei Xi Jing": "The void of Kunlun in hai is in the northwest, under the emperor." Kunlun Void, Fang Eight Hundred Miles, Gao Wanling. ”
Another example is Kunlun, which is described more than once in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and Kunlun Mountain has an extraordinary position in it.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas is not imaginary, but is based on a colorful world as a microcosm, recording strange anecdotes and describing a world that once existed.
In history, there are also saints who have mysteriously disappeared, and Lao Tzu has disappeared from Hanguguan in the west, and even I am wondering if he went to the world in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?
At the end of science is theology, which makes the void within reach.
The existence value of the Classic of Mountains and Seas can be analyzed from multiple perspectives:
1. Although the Classic of Mountains and Seas is not a pure geographical book, its geographical connotation is the first, and it describes the geographical characteristics of various places in an orderly and orderly manner from all directions, including physical geographical characteristics and human geographical characteristics.
2. Perhaps the most important value of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is that it preserves a large number of myths and legends, which are not familiar to all of us, such as the Quaker Father Day by Day, the Jingwei Reclamation, the Nine Days of Yi Shooting, and the Yu Zhi Shui, many of which are not very familiar to people.
3. In terms of folklore, the Classic of Mountains and Seas first preserved folk customs such as clothing, beliefs and taboos, and sacrifices in the accounts of ancient landscapes; then preserved folk customs such as medicine and witchcraft in the shanhai charts; third, a large number of ancient myths were preserved in the accounts of mountains and seas.
4. The Classic of Mountains and Seas is also a history of science and technology, which not only records the creation and invention of ancient scientists, but also their scientific practice activities, and also reflects the scientific thinking at that time and the level of science and technology that has been reached.
The strange Classic of Mountains and Seas may really be the lost world of mankind, and perhaps there is still a certain corner of the universe.
