On New Year's Day, seven of us went to Hanguguan for a trip. I have long been eager to go to Hangu Pass, because I know from the book "The Warring States" that Hangu Pass is one of the earliest Xiongguan fortresses built in the history of our country. It used to be the ancient battlefield where war horses neighed, and it is known as "one person can keep it, and ten thousand people can't force it". It is the birthplace of the Tao Te Ching written by Laozi, a great philosopher, thinker and founder of Taoism in ancient times.
Through the window, I saw cars parked on both sides of the expressway. Needless to say, they all traveled to Hanguguan, and it took a lot of effort to find an empty parking space. After getting off the bus, looking around, there was a sea of people, and we crowded into Hangu Pass with the crowd.
Dawn platform: the dawn will never stop.
Just entering the customs, I heard a rooster crowing while walking. Strange, is there a chicken farm here? So, I pulled everyone together and ran away when I heard the sound. At the foot of the mountain, I saw a poem written on a sign:
Jimingtai
The cock crows between heaven and earth,
The pastoral escape of Hanguguan.
Jane Na Xiang magically,
Anecdotes throughout the ages constitute beautiful conversation materials.
I'm mom, fourth uncle and fourth grandmother! Isn't this the story of Meng Changjun's "cock crow and dog thief" during the Warring States Period? I immediately told them this story with everyone on the steps: "Listen to me, this place was an important place for Meng Changjun to escape from Qin during the Warring States Period. They escaped from Qin with the method of' crow and dog thief' ... "At the top of the mountain, my story was over, and everyone knew the story of' crow and dog thief'.
When I arrived at Jimingtai, I saw Jimingtai's pavilion. There is a stone tablet in the middle of the pavilion, on which the story of Ji Ming's dog thief is written. The pavilion is painted with pictures of the story of Ji Ming stealing dogs, which reminds me of the story of Ji Ming stealing dogs again and rekindles my fascination with the story of the Warring States Period. I decided to read the story of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period again when I got home.
The cock crow keeps ringing in my ears. I ran to the "rooster" statue, but it couldn't send out the sound source. Where did the cock crow? Finally, I found the corner in a very hidden place on a tree. So this is it, which makes it hard for me to find it! I also heard my mother say that in the temple next to the "rooster", people put one-yuan coins into a small hole, and when one is put in, the rooster crows. Because someone has been throwing, there has been a rooster crowing. Ha ha! Because of the story of the cock crowing and the dog stealing food, the cock crowing attracted many tourists. It's true that roosters sing all over the world!
Taiji Palace: the Source of Taoism
After that, we came to Taichu Palace. Legend has it that Yin greeted Lao Tzu to Hangu Pass, saluted Lao Tzu and begged Lao Tzu to write a book for him, so Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching with 5,000 words here. It turned out that people built the Taichu Palace here to commemorate this event. Therefore, the outer wall of Taichu Palace is covered with Tao Te Ching. Looking at the Taichu Palace from a distance, there are unicorn, lion, tiger, rooster, hunting dog and other rare birds and animals on the eaves, with different expressions. Walking into the main hall, I saw Laozi, the Eight Immortals crossing the sea and all kinds of immortals, which were very vivid and unforgettable, so this place also made me unforgettable.
Entrance building: Xiongguan fortress
Out of the Taiji Palace, go straight to Guanlou after the Sutra Pavilion. There are four closed buildings, two on both sides and two on the middle. This is the only east-west passage in this area. Standing on the third floor, I looked west and saw a valley with steep cliffs and many peaks and rocks on both sides. How nice! One person guards it, and ten thousand people can't force it! My mother told me that Hangu Pass is the throat from Luoyang in the east to Chang 'an in the west. It is known as "Tiankai Hangu Zhuangguan, the eternal Chen Jingbei".
In Hanguguan, my favorite places are Jimingtai and Taiji Palace. These two places not only remind me of the story of the Warring States period, but also let me deeply understand the story of "cock crow and dog thief". Taichu Palace reminds me of the Tao Te Ching we have studied, and I have seen the true face of Laozi. This trip to Hanguguan on the first day of the Lunar New Year really benefited a lot!
Hanguguan, you are like a diplomat of Lingbao. You let the world know Lingbao. You are like the treasure of Lingbao. You lead Lingbao to the world. Beautiful Hanguguan, I love you!
B. What are the stories in Hanguguan, Henan?
Yang Servant told Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that Qin and Han Valley of Lingbao City should be moved to the east of Xin 'an County, Rong Province, Henan Province at the expense of his own property, so that all fiefs were in the "customs". Soon, Emperor Wu accepted Yang's request. Hosted by Yang Fu, Hanguguan was moved to Xin 'an in BC 1 14, which was called Hanguguan in history and also called Qin Guan in Qin Dynasty. Han Han Valley Pass is 20 kilometers away from Luoyang, with Qinglong Mountain in the south, Mangshan Mountain in the north, Yellow River in the north, west to east, and Jianshui in front. This building is very spectacular. In the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao asked Zhang Lu and Ma Chao. In order to transport troops and food quickly, he ordered Chu Xu to dig a tunnel on the Yellow River several kilometers north of Qin Hangu Pass and build a customs building. Because this customs is not far from Qin customs, people call it "new customs" or "Weihan Valley Customs". Therefore, that is to say, in China, there are three Hangu Pass 1 * * *, namely, Qin Hangu Pass, Han Hangu Pass and Wei Hangu Pass. But in the end, Hangu Pass only retained two sites, Hangu Pass and Weihan Pass.
C. The 800-word composition "You Han Gu Guan" tells the story of several places in Han Gu Guan.
Ha ha! School exchange, goodbye! I have been traveling these days! Speaking of which, it's really a long story
On August 2nd, we came to Hanguguan with our guide aunt. I've heard the saying "One-handed, Wan Fu is beyond reproach" a long time ago. Today, I finally understand. There is a big gossip on the gate of Hanguguan, which is not spectacular, but it is very imposing.
After seeing this aggressive door, I can't wait to get in. As soon as I walked in, I felt a sense of retro. I saw a "monster" like crane, bird, bird, bird and bird. The tour guide said, "This painting represents good luck." Following the guide's footsteps, we came to the Fu Ling Monument, which seems to have experienced many ups and downs, and the things on it are already blurred. The tour guide aunt said: "The monument was dug in the Tang Dynasty, which can be said to have a long history. It is precisely because of this monument that Tang Xuanzong began to pay attention to agricultural development. "
Then, we came to the middle, and there was a big wishing tree with a red wishing rope hanging on it. So I went to worship a wishing rope, and I made a beautiful wish. I really hope it can come true (hehe … it's a pity that I can't tell you what I did, because it's impossible to listen to others).
Listening to the tour guide's explanation all the way, it turned out that Laozi was the famous book "Laozi" written in Hanguguan. This book is second only to the Bible abroad. In Hanguguan, the image of Laozi is also enshrined. At first, I thought Laozi must be very serious, but after seeing him, I think he is a very kind person!
Next, we looked at Laozi's desk. His desk is just a stone. This stone looks very smooth. It seems that Lao Tzu must study hard! There is a custom here: "touch along the circle of stones, and touch a circle is round and beautiful." Touching from bottom to top along the stone symbolizes rising step by step! "So, I began to feel happy and touched all the stones!
Later, we went to the stage where chickens call dogs to steal, and it was a close call. The city wall and the armory were like ... what a sumptuous meal!
Visiting Hangu Pass really made me gain a lot! Our long history is really not in vain! Learn from Laozi's humble style!
D. Information about Jiming Station in Hanguguan, its myth and introduction.
Jimingtai is also known as Tian. The story of the idiom "chicken and dog thief" happened here. The legend of the reconstructed rooster and rooster platform is to answer the high harbor where Tian Wen's diners learned to crow.
According to the law of Qin State, Hangu Pass is not opened until the cock crows every day. Why do chickens crow in the middle of the night? When everyone was worried, only a few "oh oh" cocks crowed, and then all the cocks outside the city crowed. It turns out that another public in Meng Changjun can crow like a chicken, and the chicken will crow as soon as it hears the first crow. Although all the soldiers guarding the pass were surprised, why did the chicken crow before sleeping? But I had to get up and open the door according to the rules to let them out.
E. purple gas comes from the east, and Laozi goes to Hangu from the west. What other stories are there about Hanguguan?

(5) Extended reading of stories related to Hangu Pass:
Hanguguan-the idiom story of Xuanzong's reform to Yuan Dynasty
After Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty began to think about alchemy and the art of immortality. Many alchemists and Taoists offered Dan medicine, and the whole family was promoted. At that time, there was a soldier named Tian Tongxiu in Chen Jiali.
One morning, he said that he dreamed that the old gentleman met him in Fengdan Building in Hanguguan at night. Lao Tzu said that there was a peach symbol buried in the place where he wrote the scriptures. Whoever can get it will win the world.
Upon hearing this, Xuanzong immediately ordered Tian Tongxiu to take people to the Hangu Pass where Laozi wrote scriptures, dug three feet and dug out a peach symbol engraved with the word "wood", which was interpreted by all the ministers as 48. I said that I can bless Xuanzong to sit in the world for 48 years. Xuanzong was overjoyed and immediately changed the title of Kaiyuan to Tianbao, made Laozi Emperor Xuanyuan and changed Taolin County to Lingbao County.
F. Historical origin of Hangu Pass
In ancient times, the section from Xiaoshan to Tongguan in the middle of Luoyang-Xi 'an ancient road was mostly in the valley, surrounded by dangers, and was called Hanguguan in ancient times. During the Warring States period, the land of Hanguguan was seized from Wei, and Hanguguan was established here.
During the Warring States Period, all six countries except Qin were at war with Qin, but Qin successfully resisted the attack of the six-nation allied forces at Hanguguan. Jia Yi's famous political commentary "On Qin" in the Western Han Dynasty wrote: "So the people of the six countries ... tasted ten times as many people and knocked on the customs to attack Qin. Qin people switched on and off to delay the enemy and divide the nine countries, wandering and not daring to enter. "Among them," Guan "refers to Hangu Pass, which shows its strategic influence.
Because Hangu Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, after the anti-Qin uprising at the end of Qin Dynasty, the newly established Chu Huaiwang declared that whoever entered the Pass first was the king of Guanzhong, which is Hangu Pass. After that, Liu Bangxian entered Shanhaiguan, but did not go straight to Hanguguan. The reason is that Hangu Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, Shanhaiguan is Xianyang, the capital of Qin Dynasty, and Qin Jun, who guards Hangu Pass, is definitely an elite. In order to avoid the attack, Liu accepted Sean's suggestion and made a detour into Shanhaiguan. However, Xiang Yu was dissatisfied with Liu Bangxian's entry into the customs and gave a banquet at Hongmen, but he didn't want to violate Chu Huaiwang's original announcement. Therefore, Liu Bang was named as Wang Ba when he was chased, and later as Hanwang. Although Ba and Han also belonged to Guanzhong Pass (west of Hangu Pass), they were uncivilized and barren land at that time, and even used by Qin and Qin to exile criminals. But Liu Bang succeeded in accumulating strength in Hanzhong, and finally defeated Xiang Yu in the battle between Chu and Han.
After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, a captain was set up to guard the customs. At the beginning of Emperor Han Jing, the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms broke out. Wu Pai's ministers went to lobby Qi Wang Jiao, saying, "Fortunately, the king made a promise, so the king of Wu led the king of Chu to write a letter to Gu Guan to defend the millet in Aocang, reject the Han soldiers and rule the two houses, so he must be king." In the third year of Ding Yuan (BC 1 14), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty told Yang that he had moved to the eastern boundary of Xin 'an (now Xin 'an County, Henan Province), with Guguan as hongnong county and hongnong county under his jurisdiction. In the second year of Wang (AD 7), he set out to guard Hangu Pass in Kanto. At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Ba dispatched Hanguguan to attack Xingyang and Zhongmou thieves and put them down. Wang Yuan said that Xiao Wei said, "Please seal the Hangu Pass in the east with a grain of mud. If you don't know the king, the harm is enough to bully you. " . In the second year of Chu Ping of Emperor Huan of Han Dynasty, he hunted in the forest garden and went to Hangu Pass.
After nine years' delay, I was lucky enough to get to Hangu Pass. In the fifth year of Emperor Han Guang, he went hunting in the forest, passed through the valley of Han Guang and arrived at Guangchengyuan. Xian Di Chuping two years, many heroes arise and crusade against Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo forcibly moved Xian Di from Luoyang to Chang 'an because Hangu Pass was strong and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Wei Zhengshi moved from Hongnong satrap Meng Kangyan to Hanguguan, renamed Daguguan and became Jinguguan.
In the second year of Da 'an in the Western Jin Dynasty (303), the chaos of the Eight Kings was in full swing. Sima Yu, the king of Hejian, dispatched troops and sent Guan Zhongling's subordinate Zhang Fang to visit Guan Guan and invade Luoyang in the east.
In the next two thousand years, Hangu Pass, with dangerous terrain, often became the object of military struggle, including the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty and even War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
G. Idiom story about Hanguguan
Purple air comes from the east, which is an auspicious omen.
Crow like a rooster and scratch like a dog ―― become mean or mean.
There is an idiom: one person guards it, and ten thousand people can't force it.
H. Who can tell me the story of Lao Zi's westward journey to Hanguguan in detail? It can be a myth. .
Laozi was a famous thinker in the Spring and Autumn Period. Seeing the decline of the Zhou Dynasty, he left his native land and prepared to go out to the pass of the Neihan Valley to travel around the world.
Yin, the great official guarding Hangu Pass, worships Lao Zi very much. I am very happy to hear that Lao Zi has come to Hangu Pass. However, when he knew that Laozi was going to travel abroad and felt sorry, he tried to keep Laozi. Therefore, Yin said to Lao Zi, "If you want to go through the customs, go through the customs, but keep your money."
Hearing this, Lao Tzu stayed in Hangu for a few days. A few days later, he gave Yin a book of about 5,000 words, and then rode away on a big blue cow. It is said that this work was later passed down as Tao Te Ching.
(8) Extended reading of stories related to Hangu Pass:
character introduction
Yin, whose real name is Wengong, is, Mr. and Guanyin. Ten great men in the pre-Qin world, doctors, generals, philosophers and educators in the Zhou Dynasty, were born in Tianshui, Gansu Province. They studied ancient books since childhood, were proficient in calendars, were good at observing astronomy and astrology, and could know the past and see the future.
"Zhuangzi Tianxia" juxtaposes him with Laozi, calling him an "ancient great man".
From the official to the doctor of the Zhou dynasty, it is under the order of the third year. Later, I met Laozi and was awarded the ancient book Laozi's Five Thousand Words, which is today's Tao Te Ching. After that, I followed Laozi to the west, scattered customs, and transformed Hu Xiyu.
I. A 400-word composition about the story of Hanguguan
Hanguguan, located in lingbao city, Henan Province, contains various places of interest left over from ancient times with beautiful scenery. Because it is locked in the valley, it is as dangerous as eggs, so it is called Hanguguan.
Once, my mother and I went to Hanguguan to play. By car to the border of Hanguguan Wang Duo Village, I saw a wide gatehouse with a Tai Chi in the middle. I walked along the cypress flowers on both sides for a while and looked up and saw a statue of Laozi, which was about 28 meters high and solemn. Further on, there is a Laozi temple. Although there are many people in the temple, it is orderly. Go on, go to the herringbone intersection, turn left, and arrive at the Hanguanyuan, where there are cultural allusions such as "Purple Gas Coming from the East", "Looking at the Sky", "Taiji Palace" and "Jimingtai".
According to historical records, more than 3,000 years ago, during the ancient Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hanguguan ordered Yin to be good at observing astronomical phenomena and master the Book of Changes. One day, Yin stood on the earth building and found a purple air rising in the east. Knowing that a saint was passing by, he bathed and changed clothes and waited quietly. Soon, sure enough, an old man with a good head and sideburns came slowly from the east on a green cow. He is a famous Zhou Dynasty history. Seeing the decline of the Zhou family and the failure of the government, Lao Tzu decided to go to the western regions to live in seclusion through Hangu Pass. Yin warmly entertained Laozi and asked him to write a book. Lao Tzu accepted the detention and wrote the Tao Te Ching with 5,000 words. Later generations built a watchtower to commemorate this event.
This used to be the ancient battlefield where war horses neighed. Walk through the wooden bridge in the back yard of Taoist temple, go directly to the ancient wall and overlook the square under the wall. I seem to hear the sound of chariots and horses and see the scene of the war between the two armies.
The story of Hanguguan naturally does not stop there, and the scenery does not stop there. Can't finish. Only by going there in person can we really see those beautiful scenery.
J. The story of Lao Zi riding a green cow out of the customs
Story:
In 5 17 BC, the royal family of Zhou Dynasty had civil strife and led troops to capture Gong Liu City. Zhou's situation is very critical. At that time, Jin was the most powerful vassal state, and the king of Jin sent troops to support Zhou Wangjing. Wang Zichao couldn't help it, so he took many classics with him and fled to Chu.
Laozi was a Tibetan official in Zhoudu at that time, so he was implicated and forced to resign. Seeing that the Zhou royal family was too decadent, Lao Tzu planned to leave Zhoudu to live in seclusion. So, I found a green cow and rode smartly to Hanguguan (now lingbao city, Henan Province), hoping to go to the State of Qin.
At that time, Yin was the caretaker of Hangu Pass. On this day, he stood in the distance and suddenly saw a purple gas floating slowly from the east. Yin is also learned. He is very excited to know that the image of purple gas from the east indicates that a saint is coming.
Yin looked at Lao Zi and thought, "Look at this, Lao Zi will fly away and leave this world. I don't know if I can see you again today. " So Yin greeted Lao Tzu and asked him to write something for himself, or he wouldn't be allowed to go through the customs.
Although I can't bear to part with it, I can't go through the customs without writing. There is only one way to go to Qin. In order to be happy in the future, Lao Tzu reluctantly raised his pen.
