The Original Text and Appreciation of Qu Yuan's Nine Songs of Shan Gui

She is a mountain god.

If someone is a mountain, he will be led by Li Xi with a girl.

Laughing is awkward and appropriate, and children are eager for kindness and gentleness.

Ride the red leopard with the raccoon, and get married in the Xinyi car.

Shi Lan Xi took Du Heng, and he lost his mind.

The rest of the place can't see the sky, and the road is dangerous and difficult.

Table Independent xi Shan Ye, Cloud Capacity xi and Future.

It was dark, the east wind fell, and it rained.

Stay in practice and forget to go home. When you are old, you will give it to me.

Shi Lei Schiller Gorman made three plays in the mountains.

Sorry, I forgot to go home, but I can't be idle when I miss you.

People in the mountains are fragrant in Du Ruo, drinking rock springs and shady pines and cypresses.

You think I'm suspicious.

Thunder filled the rain, and apes chirped at night.

The wind is rustling and the wood is rustling. I miss my son and I am worried.

-Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs Shan Gui"

Influenced by the ghost movies and TV series I watched as a child, when the word "ghost" is mentioned, a monster with blue face and fangs always comes to mind. Later, after reading the ghost story in Joey Wong, I suddenly realized that ghosts can be so beautiful. Shan Gui is not a ghost, but she is also beautiful and affectionate. She wears Ficus pumila and rides a red leopard in the mountains. She is the freest spirit in the world.

Shan Gui is my favorite Qu Yuan's Nine Songs, and Shan Gui is also one of my favorite mythological images. She has both the beauty and dreams of a fairy and the wildness and mystery of an elf. According to the most popular saying, she is a mountain god, but she can't be called a god because she hasn't been officially canonized by the Emperor of Heaven. She can only be called "Shan Gui". I remember that the mountain gods in The Journey to the West were mostly thin old men with white beards. By contrast, Shan Gui should be regarded as the most beautiful mountain god.

A Qing Gu Chengtian believed that Shan Gui was Yao Ji, the goddess of Wushan, and this view was recognized by Guo Moruo. Guo Moruo's explanation is that the word "Yushan" in the sentence "Take three beautiful scenery in the mountains" is Wushan, because the word "Xi" in Chu Ci has the function of "danger". If the mountain is not Wushan, then the word "jade" is a burden. Also, it is worth mentioning that the word "jade" was pronounced "witch" in ancient times. Guo Moruo's explanation is so convincing that the view that "Shan Gui is the goddess of Wushan" was quickly recognized by many people. Think carefully, how can a great writer like Qu Yuan leave a flaw in his works?

Compared with Shan Gui, the name of Wushan Goddess is louder. Most people have heard the story that "Chu Huaiwang met the goddess in her dream and the goddess recommended her pillow". The heroines in Song Yu's Gao and Goddess Fu are also Yao Ji, the goddess of Wushan.

Legend has it that Yao Ji is the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. She helped Dayu control water and later became a protector of Chu people in goddess peak. There is also a saying that Yao Ji is the daughter of Emperor Yan and the sister of Jingwei (formerly known as a girl drowning and turning into a bird to fill the sea). She died before marriage and was buried at the foot of Wushan, and her soul became the god who guarded Wushan.

Qi Jing, a Poem of Mountain and Sea Zhongjing, records: "To the east, 200 miles is Guyao Mountain. The emperor's daughter died, named female corpse, and became Yao Cao. Her leaves turned yellow, but it was like a mound, and she was charming. " Soil ball, namely dodder, also known as female radish, is a vine, often attached to other plants.

I always felt that Yao Ji was wronged, and people didn't make any mistakes. Because of Chu Huaiwang's dream of spring, she suddenly fell from a high goddess to a * * * of "self-recommendation pillow mat", so that "Wushan sex" and "balcony door" became synonymous with men and women.

There is a passage in Song Yu's "Gao Tang Mi": "Once upon a time, the first king tried to visit Gao Tang and slept in the daytime, dreaming that a daughter said,' My concubine is also the daughter of Wushan. As a guest of Gaotang. Wen Jun visited Gaotang County and would like to recommend a pillow to you. "Wang Yinxing. When I left, I said,' My concubine is in the sun of Wushan, and the hills and valleys hinder me. When I was facing the clouds, it was raining at dusk. Morning and night, under the balcony. "

This passage describes Yao Ji's generosity. In the face of Chu Huaiwang, her gesture is also humble, which is not like the performance of a god. As we all know, this is just Chu Huaiwang's wishful thinking. Have you asked the goddess? Obviously not. Yao Ji's reputation was messed up and destroyed. And Song Yu also wrote a tidbit like the paparazzi now, saying that the goddess and Chu Huaiwang are like this, like this, like this, like this ... Plus Song Yu's writing style is really good. As soon as the news came out, he also filled out Yao Ji's "self-recommended pillow mat".

Being an emperor is always insatiable. It is not enough to have beautiful women on earth. Even the goddess wants to get her hands on it. Personally, I think that Chu Huaiwang's behavior is the same as Zhou Wang's blasphemy against Nu Wa in The Romance of Gods. Nu Wa can plan "King Wu cutting Zhou" in a rage, but Yao Ji can only take the blame, which is unjust!

Because I love the image of Wushan Goddess so much, I have drifted away unconsciously. Let's talk about Shan Gui.

Besides Guo Moruo's explanation, Shan Gui's dress and living environment are also considered as Yao Ji. She was "raised by Ficus pumila with a female radish", and the female radish was dodder and Yao Ji's "Yao Cao"; She "table alone xi Shan Ye, YunRong xi. This scene is also in line with Yao Ji's image of "rain at dusk".

I once described Yao Ji in my novel like this: "Her eyebrows are like distant mountains with black flowers and her eyes are like autumn water. Obviously, there is a misty rain between her eyebrows, without any sadness, misty and mysterious. The dense 3,000 green filaments are picked up casually with a hairpin and loosely put on the back, which reminds people of the grass in the mountains. "

This description was also influenced by Shan Gui to a great extent. Although I have no special preference for Shan Gui's true identity, I can't deny that she and Yao Ji have long been regarded as one person in my heart.

The image is endowed with great vitality by Qu Yuan, which is more flexible and vivid than other immortal images in Nine Songs, such as, Mrs. Xiang and Yun. She has the * * * nature of man, god and elf, infatuation, mystery and agility, but what attracts me most is her freedom. Dressed in the costumes of Ficus pumila, Laura, Shi Lan and Du Heng, she rode a red leopard in the mountains, followed by a "follower" Wen raccoon. The mountains are her territory, and she can be free and carefree.

Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs" is full of music songs offering sacrifices to immortals. For example, Shan Gui is dedicated to Shan Gui. Her experience is similar to that of Xiang Jun. She made an appointment with her lover and arrived at her destination happily, but her lover didn't come. She waited in the wind and rain until it was completely dark, and her heart began to feel sad and even desperate.

There is no doubt that Shan Gui is beautiful. She is surrounded by lush grass, with red leopards as mounts and literary raccoons as followers. She is beautiful, which can be said to be quite imposing. Women always want to appear in front of their lovers in the most beautiful image when dating. Shan Gui is beautiful enough to impress women, let alone men. It's a pity that her lover is too ungrateful, and the beauty has to stand up.

Eager lover Shan Gui faint sigh:

I walked through the dark bamboo forest, the road was difficult and dangerous, and I came late alone. Standing alone on the top of a high mountain, looking at the foggy sea, the clouds are rolling and comfortable. The day is dark as night, the east wind dances wildly, and the rain is pouring down. I waited for you for so long that I forgot to go back. Beauty will fade and years will grow old. Dangerous roads and bad weather can't stop me from following in your footsteps.

Shan Gui's love is so rough, even worse than Xiang Jun's. In the process of waiting, Xiang Jun can at least see the beautiful scenery of Dongting and ride a horse to vent his anger. Shan Gui went through many difficulties and obstacles to get to the meeting place. Not only did her lover not appear, but God did not pity her for it. She waited in the storm, cold and lonely.

I believe in a word, women are more likely to fall in love than men, and so is the goddess. Xiang Jun can't wait for Mrs. Xiang, so she can comfort herself and leave with an open mind; Shan Gui couldn't wait for her lover, but she still waited and forgot to go home.

She collects ganoderma lucidum and fairy grass that can prolong life in the mountains. The rocks are steep and vines are entangled. As for why she picked Ganoderma lucidum, maybe like Xiang Jun, she wanted to give it to her lover. Kindness is like a mountain ghost, but I still have complaints about my lover.

I miss you so much that I forgot to go home. Do you miss me? Why didn't you come to me?

It's getting dark, thunder is rolling and it's raining harder and harder. The ape in the mountain seemed to feel the sadness in Shan Gui's heart and began to sob. In the storm, lonely Shan Gui's heart is bound to be infinitely sad. Compared with the bad weather, the lover's failure to stand her up has hit her much harder.

I don't understand what Qu Yuan's real intention is. Why did he create a sad and lonely fairy image in those folk songs that offered sacrifices to meet the gods? Chu, where he lives, is a country full of myths and legends. People there believe in and respect the gods. In their minds, such as, Mrs. Xiang, Jun in the cloud, etc., must be beautiful in mountains and ghosts.
