Number 12 The immortals in ancient China mythology.

The giant who created the world in the creation myth of Han nationality. However, its position in the myth system of China can't be compared with the abdicated gods such as the first generation of ancient gods, Nu Wa Fuxi, because Pangu's creation theory only appeared after the Han Dynasty, so it can be confirmed that this ancient god was influenced by foreign creation myths. Wu of the Three Kingdoms put forward Pangu's theory of egg and dying metaplasia in his own works, describing the story that Pangu was born in the chaos of heaven and earth, grew with heaven and earth, and finally metaplasia of everything. In Travel Notes of the Ming Dynasty, a very magnificent story of Pangu's creation with tools was added, which formed the epoch-making Pangu theory, which is now popular in the world. According to Yi Shuoji, the tomb of Pangu exists and is considered by later generations as the burial place of Pangu's soul. Is the sleeping Pangu God met in the celestial relic the soul of Pangu buried in the South China Sea?

1, Taibai Venus

Taibai is Venus, also known as Baidizi, which is the deified figure of the morning star on the horizon. As a Taoist god, according to the "Seven Obsidian Disasters Law", the original image was a goddess wearing a yellow skirt, a cockscomb and playing the pipa. After the Ming Dynasty, the image turned into an old man with a white beard, holding a clean and soft dust in his hand, and entered the Taoist Xiu Yuan. He often appears in some influential classical novels, the most famous of which is The Journey to the West, but he is not respected and valued. Recently, the eight-stream TV series is even more insulting. As the god of Taibai Star, mentioning Taibai Star is the person who is closely related to Sun Simiao in the history of Tang Yi. It is the four wonders of wandering immortals and drinking and talking about the sky in Shu. Guang Yi Ji also mentioned an old man who was also in Sichuan and claimed to be the Taibai Mountain God, who could summon tigers.

2, nine days xuan Nv

Also known as Xuan Nv and Yuan Nv, the earliest image of them is Xuanniao, the ancestor of a merchant, and it is mentioned in Historical Records of Yin Benji that the ancestor of Yin Shang was born after his mother swallowed Xuanniao's eggs, which more rationally explains the reason why merchants worship Xuanniao totem. The Biography of Xuan Nv in the Song Dynasty perfected the legend of the goddess, saying that when she was trapped in the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, she was sent by her teacher, the Virgin Yuan Jun, and came down to help the Yellow Emperor, which finally defeated Chiyou. Xuan Nv was honored as a goddess because of her meritorious service to the country. Later generations called Xuan Nv the "Nine-Day Xuan Nv", because she ruled the sky, worshiped it, followed it, the sky, the sky, the sky, the salty sky and the nine days. After being absorbed by Taoism, the goddess was widely worshipped, and appeared in classical supernatural novels many times after the Song Dynasty. The more famous ones are Outlaws of the Marsh, Legacy of the Great Song Dynasty, Legend of Immortals and Xue. However, at present, the most concentrated reason for people's worship of Nine-Day Xuan Nv is not because of the wisdom of the art of war possessed by the goddess itself, but mostly because they wish to send their children to protect their students.

3. The Big Dipper

It turned out to be a complex group of gods that deified the constellation Ursa major in the sky. According to "Journey to the Emperor of the River Map", only the stars control Juelu's wealth and harvest, but after being absorbed by early Taoism, the theory that Beidou pays attention to death and Nan Dou pays attention to life was formed. The Big Dipper was ordered to listen to the merits and demerits of everyone in the world, which determined his life experience. It is a very important god for the people to exercise great power and status. Therefore, the incense dedicated to the Big Dipper on Mount Tai is immortal since ancient times, which is incomparable to other gods. I think it is similar to 10 financial management. Similar to the floating of powerful official positions in the world, in many documents, the specific identity of the Big Dipper has not been determined. The river map began to open, called Huangdi Xuanyuan and Beidou God. "Seven Signs of Cloud" said that Beidou Jun was a Jiangxia native named Bo Dawan, and Beidou Jun was a Jiangxia native named Chen Fengchang. The True Spirit Bitmap says that Beidou Jun is Zhou Wuwang. At present, Huang's third son is named the Big Dipper in the original work of the magnificent Romance of the Gods!

4. Fengbo

The earliest Fengshen was called Jixing or Jibo, and it was called the wind master Jixing in the customs. The dustpan is the main fan, which can ventilate the atmosphere, so it is called dustpan. However, in the State of Chu, Fei Lian, a mysterious monster with the body of a deer and the head of a sparrow, has been regarded as Fengbo since ancient times. According to the Notes on Water Classics, Fei Lian played for Zhou Wang because he was good at walking. Zhou Wuwang defeated Zhou Wang and Fei Lian committed suicide. Moved by his loyalty, the Emperor of Heaven buried him with a sarcophagus and named him Shen Feng. After the Han Dynasty, Fei Lian and Gilbert gradually merged and were personified by the people, forming a fixed statue hat with a white beard, a wheel in his left hand and a _ in his right hand. After the Tang Dynasty, because Fengbo's main function was to cooperate with Raytheon and Rain God to help all things grow, he was devoutly sacrificed by emperors of past dynasties. However, Fengbo is often regarded as an evil spirit, because hurricanes often destroy houses and hurt people's lives, leading to natural disasters. In folklore, Shen Feng, who often appears as a female image, mainly reflects the harm of wind to plant growth. In the high-seductive notes of Huai Nan Zi Ben, the story of Iraq's killing people by binding them violently in Ze Qing Qiu is mentioned, but this inevitably reminds people of the details of Saite's search for an artifact to rescue the trapped Thor.

5. Rain God

In legend, they often appear with Fengbo. He used to be a vassal of the Yellow Emperor. "Ten Biographies of Han Feizi" said: When the Yellow Emperor joined forces with ghosts and gods to kill you in Xi, Fengbo swept in, and the rain teacher spilled the road. But then he fought against the Yellow Emperor with Chiyou, who fought against the Yellow Emperor in Shan Hai Jing Wild, and the Yellow Emperor asked Ying Long to attack the wild land of Jizhou. Ying Long stores water. Chiyou invited Fengbo and Rain Master to come from the storm. After Chiyou retreated, the rain Lord was the rain god, but it was impossible to confirm who it was. In Chu Ci, the names of Rain Master are Xuanming, Ping and Ping, while in Bao Puzi, some call themselves Rain Master and Dragon in the Mountain. When Sou Shen Ji said that pine nuts were red, Shennong's rain master was also the highest realm, and he became a rain master and traveled around the world. Teacher Yu is nothing today. There are many sayings circulating in the world, and some even call Gong Wei Li Jing the Rain Master. Although it seems absurd, it is enough to show that as a big agricultural country, people pay attention to the essential precipitation in the process of crop growth. It is worth mentioning that the ugly god in the underground branch is the rain teacher, so people often sacrifice to the rain teacher on their ugly days.

6. Miao people

Legend has it that he is a descendant of Emperor Yan, and all the records are from Shan Hai Jing. Shan Hai Jing Hai Nei Nan Jing said that Bianren is building muxi, which is a fish that everyone has, but it is not enough. However, it is obvious that the Miao people in Tianji are in the northeast of Jian Mu, which makes people feel a cold sweat. The West Wild Classic says that Yan Di's grandson gave birth to a hermit who can go to heaven and go to heaven. It is always difficult to understand how they go up and down. The so-called mermaid body is more likely to be a mermaid than a mermaid on the outside.

7. E Huang Nv Ying

The goddess of perfume is considered as Yao's daughter and Shun's wife. The earliest legend began in the Han Dynasty. According to the records of the five emperors, Yao married his second wife, Shun. Liu Xiang's Biography of Women confirmed the names of two ladies, which perfected the story of helping her husband Shun to determine the throne. When Shun traveled around the world and died of illness, both of them joined the Xiangjiang River and became the gods of Hunan water. Later generations generally call it Mrs. He Xiang. Beautiful and loyal to the item left a romantic and sad memory. Therefore, although she is only a regional god, she has a reputation and appearance rate that does not lose any other goddess in the literary world.

8.chang 'e

The legendary Moon Palace Fairy, also known as _ E, Mrs. Xu Shang, the Moon God. China's romantic literature has created an irreplaceable goddess, who is beautiful, lonely, noble, elegant, mysterious and sad. In fact, it evolved from the princess Chang Yi who gave birth to the emperor in December. Instrument and moth can be used at the same time, so Chang 'e is considered as Chang 'e. Because Chang 'e's behavior of abandoning her husband and running away from home is not allowed by the old morality, this beautiful woman has often been demonized as an ugly toad since the Han Dynasty, and Huai Nan Zi even asserts that Chang 'e became a toad because she stole the magic medicine and flew to the moon palace. However, thinking about moral relaxation is an inevitable trend. Later generations are more full of caring reverie about the goddess who abandoned her husband in envy. She not only arranged a Jade Rabbit to accompany her to comfort the cold where she lived, but also added a WU GANG who used to be a fairy, and even repeatedly fabricated a romantic and gorgeous adventure story about her falling into the mortal world to continue her marriage. For his deeds, see The Journey to the West, History of Immortals, Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio, etc. And the plot is no less than domestic RPG.

9. Fairy

Taoist proper nouns generally refer to immortals who live in the sky and can hold up their bodies and soar. According to the division of immortals in the Secret Library of Immortals and Bao Puzi, immortals are ranked first. It can be confirmed that this is a immortal class with profound Taoist practice and lofty gods. Originally, there was no special gender distinction, but after the Han Dynasty, influenced by the description in the biography of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, most people used to regard fairies as beautiful and extraordinary women who served the Queen Mother of the West. It is worth mentioning that fairies rarely directly intervene in trivial matters because of their noble deities. Moreover, because mortals rarely adhere to the character of practicing and obtaining certificates, future generations often regard the descendants of Dong and the Queen Mother of the West as natural immortals. For details, please refer to Princess Longji, the first beauty in the fairy world in the Romance of the Gods.

Xian Di 10

According to Ge Hong's Bao Puzi, Xian Di ranks second, and is a kind of immortal who can enjoy the famous mountains and rivers. It is recorded in the orthodox Taoist scriptures that Huang Yeren, a disciple of Ge Hong, became immortal because of his master's elixir. After that, he lived in Luofu Mountain and often sang under the moon. Xian Di is usually appointed to manage 100 caves and blessed land of Taoism in China. They have the opportunity to become immortals through long-term hard training, but because of the most important qualifications, it is rarely heard that Xian Di became immortals. Zhenyuan Daxian in The Journey to the West, as the ancestor of immortals, has a strong power, but a bad character.

1 1, Snow Girl

There is no real snow girl in the Central Plains culture, which may be due to the fact that regional areas do not often encounter snow disasters. This fairy, commonly known as Lady Snow Mountain, is the daughter of guangde temple Mountain God Zhang. According to Lu, the eighth day of February is Zhang's birthday every year. A few days before and after, the local area is bound to encounter wind and rain, leading to a drop in temperature. This is believed to be due to the return of Zhang's daughters Feng Shannv and Xue Shannv to the province. So there is a local proverb that the emperor eats frozen dog meat. Another famous snow mountain goddess, Parvati, known as the daughter of the Himalayas, lives in Mount Girodi with her husband Shiva. She is a goddess with high strength and beauty. As for a large number of snow girls in the mountains in Japanese mythology, they often appear in comics and games recently. I think everyone already knows that I don't need to spend a lot of articles.

12, Silkworm Girl

It is said that the silkworm god based in Sichuan is called Matou Niang. The embryonic form is a woman who lives in the Oswild tree in the northern scenery of Shan Hai Jing. Because Xunzi proposed that the head of a silkworm is similar to the head of a horse, later generations attached the legend of silkworm and horse. In Su Ji Shen, it was written that in ancient times, a woman, because she was worried that her father had no news of going out on an expedition, joked to the horse at home that if the horse could welcome her father back, she would marry, and it worked. This horse is still immortal. One day, it suddenly rolled up the woman and left. My father, looking for a long time, couldn't find it. Finally, I can only see the daughter of a silkworm on the big branch. The theme of the story is cold and bold, and the plot is tragic and sad, but it doesn't have the feeling of spilling dog's blood in the calm, clear and restrained style of Sue Ji Shen. Later, it happened that someone continued to tell stories and arranged for a silkworm girl to ride this horse to bid farewell to her parents. It was also said that it was the end of filial piety to the fairy wife of Jiugong, which was quite boring, especially the so-called old silkworm temple, which was full of incense and was the best in Deyang. It was really impossible to verify.
