Why did the Yellow River water fall from the sky? Is there any reason for this?

The word Yellow River first appeared in the Han Dynasty, when it was called a river, or a big river.

Long ago, the upper and lower reaches of the Yellow River were not connected. Millions of years ago, the "Yellow River Movement" made the upper reaches of the Yellow River pass through Jishi Gorge, flow into Linxia Lanzhou Basin, and connect with the lower reaches. The "* * * and Movement" dating back to 6.5438+0.5 million years ago eroded the upper reaches of the Yellow River above Longyangxia, and the lower reaches of the Yellow River flowed eastward through Sanmenxia to the sea.

Introduce water into the sea

The Yellow River is the main flood discharge channel of three rivers: Yong, Yu and Zhou. It is also the main project of water control.

According to the plan, water control began in Jizhou. Jizhou in Dayu period was equivalent to Shanxi Province, north of the Yellow River in Henan Province, western half of Hebei Province, south of Yinshan Mountain in Inner Mongolia, and east and west of Liaohe River in Liaoning Province. This is what Yu Gong said about Wang Ji, which is directly managed by the Emperor of Heaven.

There are two monsters in the East China Sea, one is Tianwu and the other is Wang Xiang. These two monsters interfered with water control and hurt many water control workers. I ask the God of the East China Sea to surrender these two monsters.

He also called the army to help Yu control water. Ying Long helped the Yellow Emperor defeat Chiyou. He knows the vein of water like the back of his hand, so he can easily draw the route of digging ditches.

In Qingzhou and Yanzhou, Yu began to divert water from the Yellow River and entered Heze eastward. The water that reaches Heze and Qushui will flow into Leixiaze after the meeting. Then it flows northeast into the Brunei River, flows north, and then turns east into the sea.

With the help of Ying Long, nine rivers were dug in Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Jizhou in the lower reaches of the Yellow River and flowed into the East China Sea. Here, in the rocky mountain, the water west of the rocky mountain flows into the sea.

In the area of Xicheng Mountain and Wuwangshan, there are seven people who can perform art on the ground. Entrusted by Mrs. Yunhua, Wang Jun of Xicheng surrendered seven generals, and together with the seven generals sent by Mrs. Yunhua to Yu, he became the fourteen generals of heaven and earth, and was the main assistant of Dayu in water conservancy in the future.

In a cave in the mountain, the king of Xicheng took out a book "Cultivation" from a natural stone box and gave it to Yu, saying, "It is not difficult to become a saint with diligent practice." And told Yu: If it is successful, please put the book back.

Dig a pillar mountain

"The mainstay is the name of this mountain. In the past, Yu controlled water, the mountains were cut by water, the mountains were broken, and the water was connected with the river. The river changed course and the mountains swept by. If you see a mountain in the water, it is a column. " Rivers on both sides of the mountain were cut off and diverted around the mountain. This mountain is like a tall stone pillar, standing in the torrent of the Yellow River, which can impact day and night. Yu named it "Mountain". This is the origin of the idiom "mainstay". Since then, the "mainstay" has been passed down through the ages as the spiritual symbol of the Chinese nation.

Jilin Bohuashan

Shouyangshan on the east bank of the ancient Yellow River is connected with Taihua Mountain on the west bank of the Yellow River, and the Yellow River is blocked by mountains. So Huayin, Tongguan and Chaoyi became a lake. To release water here, two mountains must be split. Obviously, this is beyond the power of human resources. To this end, the fairy lady Yunhua invited Qin Honghai, the giant spirit god, to break Huashan to perfection. The Queen Mother of the West sat in her seat by herself. It can be described as a gathering of immortals.

I see that djinn Qin Honghai is getting bigger and bigger. Later, people didn't know how tall he was. He held out two huge palms, grasped the top of Huashan Mountain in the south, and then pushed hard to the root of Zhongtiao Mountain in the north with his feet. He split two mountains, and the river flowed eastward from the gap he opened. The left hand of the giant spirit god is printed on Huashan Mountain, so it is called "fairy palm". However, due to excessive force, Huashan was broken by him, one high and one low, and it became two and a half. The taller one is Huashan now.

Digging Longmen is the key project to control the Yellow River and the main project of water control. The project is huge, including Hukou, Mengmen and Longmen.

Here the Yellow River is blocked by Luliang Mountain, blocking the flood. There is a mountain pass in Luliang Mountain, which is similar to Hukou. If widened, it can drain water. So Yu dug an account. Year: "Yu's water begins at Hukou."

About five miles downstream of Hukou is Mengmen Mountain, which is called the pedal of Jiujiang. At this point, the river is divided into two roads, flying over both sides of the boulder, and then Mengmen Mountain is merged into one. According to legend, these two small islands turned out to be a mountain, which blocked the river and caused flooding. Dayu divided the mountain in two to make the water flow smoothly. After the river flows out of Mengmen, it rushes down Longmen.

Longmen Mountain used to be a big mountain, connected with the mountain of Luliang Mountain, which blocked the way of the Yellow River, so that the water of the Yellow River could not flow here, so it had to turn back and flow upward, drowning Shangmeng Mountain. Divide the Yulong Mountain into two, like two doors, and let the river run down from the cliff.

Later generations miss Dayu's achievements in water control and call it Yumen. There is also a folklore that Dayu carved a mountain. At this point, he dug for a long time and couldn't dig it out, so he turned it into a dragon, carved a mountain and a stone, hence the name "Longmen".

There is a stream called Li Yuxi near Longmen. When these carp swim to the upper reaches of Longmen, they will jump into dragons, which are called "carp yue longmen".

Hundreds of miles downstream of Longmen is the famous Sanmenxia. In order to break a mountain blocking the river into several sections, the river diverted and passed around the mountain like Sanmen, so it was called Sanmen. Namely "ghost gate", "divine gate" and "human gate".

In carving the dragon gate, the achievement is immortal. In Qing Dynasty, Gu You wrote a poem with water classics, praising the immortal achievements of carving Longmen.

The Yellow River rushed out of the ground and the gate of heaven opened.

Thanks to Dayu, Wan Li went to Kunlun.

Cut the dragon gate, go to a cave and meet a god. Because of language, God is shown in gossip and listed in gold plate. Ba Shen is beside. Jade said, "Hua Xu gave birth to a son. Is that you? " A: "Hua Xu is the goddess of nine rivers, so that she can rest in peace." It is the jade slips that give jade a length of one foot and two inches, so that heaven and earth can be measured. In other words, use this as a threat to pacify the soil and water. Snake God, also known as Huang Xi. According to legend, when Yu met him, Fu gave him a bamboo slip for measuring mountains and rivers.

Yu Yu ruled Liangshan and its branches. Taiyuan area has been managed to the south of Taiyue Mountain, and Hengshui and Zhangshui have been managed again.

The owner Taihua, the divine power carving Longmen, and the nine rivers are connected, and Jizhou is at the flood level. So far, the floods in Jizhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou have basically subsided.

a state in the Zhou Dynasty

After Kong Ren was dismissed from office, he did not repent. But more and more powerful, against the imperial court, and used him to bully one side with Liu Qu. Kong Ren's vassal state was in the west of Yongzhou, and Kong Ren and Xiang Liu colluded with each other, killing and oppressing the people, confronting the imperial court, and relying on obstacles to interfere with water control. Yu killed, captured Kong, and sent him to the capital.

It is suggested that Emperor Shun exile Yao to Youzhou.

Manage Yongzhou

After solving Kong Renhe and Liu Xiang, the next step is to control the flood in Yongzhou. Ying Shao said: "Harmony, stagnation, surrounded by mountains, stagnation, stagnation, Yin Qi stagnation." The west of Yongzhou is the source of the Yellow River. After the opening of Hukou and Longmen, a lot of water blocked here can be discharged. However, due to the blocking of Jishishan, a large amount of water in the upstream is still blocked there.

Records: Dayu "guided the river to accumulate stones, reached Longmen and entered the sea."

Jishan Mountain, located in the southeast of Qinghai, is the middle branch of Kunlun Mountain. Its Tibetan name is Qingshan, Anima, which means the ancestor of the Yellow River. It is 6282 meters above sea level.

Starting from the Yellow River "Bohai Sea", the ancient Bohai Sea included the vast area of Zhaling Lake. It can be said that the Yellow River originated from Kariqu and Rikou Zonglie Qu, and was blocked by Bayanlangma Mountain and Cuodoz Mountain, forming Zhaling Lake, the largest giant lake at the source of the Yellow River. After circli

The Yellow River bypasses the southeast of Jishi Mountain, flows out of Qinghai into Sichuan, is blocked by Minshan Mountain, and the torrent turns. It suddenly turned to the northwest, passed through Maqu County, Gansu Province, between Jishishan and Xiqingshan, and flowed back to Qinghai, forming a big turn. This section of the river is the first bend of the "Jiuqu Yellow River". This is the source of Dayu's harnessing of the Yellow River. He dug through the Jishi Mountain and drained the water in Yongzhou. In addition, Xiqing Mountain and Mountain were dug. At this point, the flood in Bozhou subsided.

On the cliff of Zhu Ni in Yudian, Dayu harnessed the primitive remains of Zhu Ni.

I chiseled a piece of Jishi Mountain and injected water, saying, "I opened the Longmen, guided the Jishi, proclaimed the beginning of your life, and carved" Yan Xiyu, the blessing of virtue. "

"Dayu's water control began with stone accumulation", and the stone accumulation gorge is one of the important projects. Shi Xia is located at the junction of Xunhua Salar Autonomous County and Minhe Hui and Tu Autonomous County. The whole canyon is 25 kilometers long, with undulating mountains and towering cliffs on both sides of the canyon, and the rushing Yellow River in the valley runs down from the west. The sound of water is as fast as thunder. "Jishixia" has such a record: "The mountains in Hebei are layered and beautiful. There are hundreds of standing stones on the top of the mountain, which are graceful and tall, and the competition is fierce. The rocks under it are steep, there are no steps on the wall, and there are many stone chambers in the cliff. " Stone gorge, the gorge in the gorge. Among them, there is a canyon nearly six meters long from north to south, which is Fox Canyon. The river is surging and rolling like thunder, and I don't know where I am. On the cliff of Shi Xia Cliff, there are many traces left by Dayu's water control axe. The most famous one is the "Cliff with Axe Marks", which is blue and white in color and has many axe marks.

Then, dig mountains, cushion mountains, Qishan mountains and Jingshan mountains in the upper reaches of the Weihe River, so that the Guanzhong River flows eastward into the Weihe River, unimpeded and straight into the Yellow River. Water mirror, Qi water, Qu water and Luo water are injected into Wei water from the north, and Feng Shui is injected into Wei water from the south. The Yellow River from the south was forced to flow eastward in Tongguan, north of Huashan Mountain, instead of flooding in the south. In the plain between Qishan and Tianshui, the water receded; Weak water flows west, and Sanwei Mountain area can also be inhabited.

So Fenshui was treated, so that the floods accumulated in Taiyuan and Huotai Mountain flowed into Fenshui, and the floods in the west and north of Pingyang were completely alleviated.

In this way, the Jishi Mountain is cut open, and the water is diverted into the hukou, passing through the mountain-Zhongtiao Mountain-Sanmenxia Mountain-Xicheng Mountain-Taihang Mountain-Hengshan Mountain-Jieshi Mountain, so that the Yellow River flows smoothly from Tongguan to the south, passes through Luoshui to Linjiang, reaches Dawu and passes through Gongshui to the east. At this point, the water and soil of the entire Yellow River system have been calmed down.

Although the lower reaches of the Yellow River were diverted several times after Dayu's flood control, on the whole, the Yellow River has become the mother river of the Chinese nation, which is beneficial but not harmful.
