Mount Tai is also known as Daishan, Daizong, Daiyue, Dongyue and Taiyue. In ancient times, it was called Huoshan and Taishan. The shape of "big" can be seen in oracle bone inscriptions and bronze inscriptions, and its pronunciation is "Tai".
"Pian Ya Xun Seal Script. Interpretation of Names": "The ancients did not add dots to many Taizi characters, such as Daji, Dachu, Dashi, Damiao, Daxue, etc. Later generations added dots to differentiate between small and large, so they were divided into two." According to the traditional pronunciation of ancient characters, "大" also has three sounds: "大", "太" and "大".
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, due to the extension of homophones and the evolution of synonyms, "Tai" and "Tai", "Dai" and "Dai", "Dai" and "Yue" also became interchangeable, so that "Taishan" appeared one after another. , "Daishan", "Daizong", "Daiyue" and other special names.
The name "Mount Tai" was first found in "The Book of Songs". "Tai" means great, smooth and peaceful. "Yi. Gua Shuo" "walk and be in peace, and then be at peace". The word "Tai" has the original meaning of tallness.
According to Zhang Shoujie's "Justice" in "Historical Records: Book of Feng Chan": "On Mount Tai, an altar of earth was built to offer sacrifices to heaven, and to repay heaven for its merits, so it is called Feng. On the hill below this mountain, the earth was removed to repay the merits of earth, so it is called Zen. .
Legend has it that when the world was first formed, the world was just divided, Pangu passed away between heaven and earth. His head became Dongyue, his belly became Zhongyue, his left arm became Nanyue, his right arm became Beiyue, and his feet became Xiyue. , the eyes turned into the sun and the moon, the hair turned into vegetation, the sweat turned into rivers, and the head turned into Mount Tai. Therefore, Mount Tai is called "the best mountain in the world" and the first of the five mountains.
The enshrinement of Mount Tai is a symbol of the civil and martial arts of ancient Chinese emperors. Therefore, the fact that three emperors and five emperors can enshrine it on Mount Tai represents the highest honor.
Ji Yiyun, who was walking on the stairs leading to the Jade Emperor's Peak, knew that in the trilogy of Covering the Sky, Perfection, and the Holy Ruins, Mount Tai was the product of Emperor Huangtian's creation after cutting off the traces left by the coffin of the third generation. Without that... Yijian Taishan is truly the number one mountain that covers the sky. Even the current Kunlun Fairy Mountain cannot be compared with it. It is a huge mountain that fell into the universe that covers the sky due to the dark turmoil and war in the ancient times.
Ji Yiyun walked very slowly along the way, hiding his figure to avoid the crowd. Facing the noisy crowd, he was not affected at all. He opened the path of the innate holy body with all his strength and descended into a field that had almost compressed to three feet. He worked hard to catch it. Those Taoist rhymes of existence are climbing up step by step without haste or slowness.
"Only Taihao Fuxi, who drew the Eight Diagrams to reveal the Way, and made letters and deeds to reveal the humanities..."
"Only Yan Emperor Shennong made grass to teach farming, and tasted herbs as medicine..."
"Only the Emperor Xuanyuan made the clothes for the living room and changed the image according to the law, created laws and official systems to promote politics, all of which succeeded the heaven, established the ideals, opened things up, and made great contributions to the livelihood of the people and future generations..."
Time flies, Ji Yiyun no longer takes the tourist stairs, moves sideways away from the main road, and walks slowly in the deserted areas of Mount Tai. He vaguely hears the sounds of sacrifices to the Three Emperors in his ears, as if he has returned to the era of ancient tribes, where ancestors offered sacrifices to ancient times. The scenes of the Three Emperors, these are not Dao patterns or secret techniques, but they also benefited Ji Yiyun a lot, making him feel the sacrifice emotion of the ancestors of that era, which was a kind of accumulation for him.
"Only the Emperor Jintian's family has good fortune in gold. Because of Feng Jiguan, Tao succeeds the three emperors and is the head of the five emperors..."
"Only the emperor, Gaoyang clan, has plans in Jingyuan, informs affairs sparingly, performs sacrifices sincerely, and governs all people..."
"Only the Emperor Gao Xin is clever enough to know far away, wise enough to detect subtleties, benevolent, majestic and trustworthy, and the world is convinced..."
"Only the Emperor Tao Tang's family, the Emperor's virtues and fortunes, the Holy Spirit's martial arts, the Zhongxin Chuanxin, the Taoist tradition..."
"Only the emperor has the Yu family, and his Xuande has been promoted, and he has governed with dignity, and the world has reached peace and harmony, and he has played the music of Phoenix..."
When he was approaching the Jade Emperor's Summit, Ji Yiyun heard the sound of ancient Chinese sacrifices to the Five Emperors again. He worked hard to grasp the context of the ancient times and keep it in his heart, turning it into a kind of material for him and the cornerstone of his path forward. .
When Ji Yiyun walked to the top of the Jade Emperor, the sounds of the sacrifices of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors became clearer. It was as if Ji had traveled to ancient times and witnessed the process of ancestors' sacrifices. A group of people wearing linen clothes and covering their bodies with vegetation and leaves were kowtows and chants. The merits of the ancestors are given honorary titles, so there is a saying of the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors.
The five-color altar on the Jade Emperor's roof has long since disappeared. Even a piece of broken jade has completely disappeared. The cracks in the huge pit smashed by the giant coffin and nine black dragons have also been filled up, and there is no trace left from before.
Ji Yiyun walked to the huge pit that had been filled in and sat down on his face, trying hard to trace the traces of prehistory that were not recorded in writing. However, he could only trace the three emperors and five emperors, as well as the ancient Chinese emperors or feudal princes in various eras in Mount Tai. Although the historical context of the Fengchan Sacrifice was somewhat helpful to him, it was not what he really wanted to come here this time.
What Ji Yiyun wants is something or something that can send him to this time and space. The next best thing is to capture the Taoist charm left by the practitioners before the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
However, Ji Yiyun's cultivation level could only vaguely sense the imprint of that era, but he couldn't grasp it. Alas! Empty lamentation!
"It's still a matter of strength. I can only wait until I come to Wushupu to capture these prehistoric Taoist charms in the future."
Keeping in mind the historical context of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and the ancestors' sacrifices after that, Ji Yiyun no longer insisted on something higher than his own realm, and began a new journey of exploration around Mount Tai.
However, he had gained nothing after exploring for several hours. If he found some antiques left by the ancients, or some broken weapons left by monks fighting, there would be some gains, but these were of no use to Ji Yiyun.
There was really no better discovery, so Ji Yiyun chose to leave Mount Tai instead of deliberately searching for it. He went all the way north to wander in uninhabited places to look for the ancient relics left by his predecessors and explore the traces left by their predecessors in the mountains and rivers.
Along the way, I occasionally discovered that there were Taoist charms left behind by the Dacheng King when they left the earth, and there were also carvings left by sages that are still preserved to this day. Many of them were found in inconspicuous places.
For example, among the abandoned ancient caves that have been preserved to this day, some are in places covered with weeds, mountains, rocks, lakes, etc. Everywhere Ji Yiyun goes to mountains, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, jungles... He needs to activate the innate holy body Taoist body and the realm to descend in order to pave the way. Only by catching some Taoist rhymes and pursuing them to find abandoned caves and stone carvings can we gain a deeper understanding.
In general, Ji Yiyun has gained something. The Taoist patterns left by the realm of kings have basically been lost in the long time. Ji Yiyun can only capture some fragments of insights. The carvings of the sages, the Taoist patterns and the like are still there to this day. The ones that can be preserved are relatively complete, and they contain the sages' insights into some of the principles of heaven and earth, realms, or the entire secret realm. Although there is nothing left from the king's realm, the insights into the principles of heaven and earth and realms left by the sages alone have made Ji Yiyun happy.
