Chapter 537 China Jiuding - Yongzhou Ding

Looking at the mountain and river beads after the change, a hint of joy flashed in Zhou Rui's eyes.

It seems that we will be happy today.

Because, after his unremitting efforts during this period, the conditions for the real-life red envelope software have almost been met.

He can finally get an upgrade again.

After Zhou Rui integrated the Water Spirit Pearl into the Mountain and River Pearl, he did not spend too much time paying attention, and then continued to open the next red envelope in another world.

After this red envelope in another world was opened, Zhou Rui couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wancao", Zhou Rui shouted, "Nine Dings".

Zhou Rui never expected that this red envelope would actually be the Nine Cauldrons of China.

Of course, there is only one red envelope, not all nine are here.

Otherwise, even Zhou Rui would jump up excitedly.

As we all know, China has nine tripods, symbolizing China's important tools.

The Nine Tripods have been very important since ancient times and are a symbol of supreme royal power and a prosperous country.

Dayu cast nine tripods and enfeoffed nine provinces.

From then on, the land of China was also called "the land of nine provinces".

The Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties were regarded as treasures for the national transmission symbolizing the state power.

During the Warring States Period, Qin and Chu all raised their troops to Luoyi, the city of Zhou, to seek a tripod, so the idiom "Seeking the Central Plains" appeared.

Basically, they are showing their own "king and domineering" power.

Later, during the reign of King Xian of Zhou, the Nine Cauldrons disappeared under the Si River.

Later emperors attached great importance to the symbol and significance of the power of the Nine Cauldrons, and also recast the Nine Cauldrons repeatedly. Wu Zetian and Song Huizong also cast the Nine Cauldrons.

However, these nine tripods are obviously incomparable to the nine tripods cast by Dayu.

According to legend, in the early years of the Xia Dynasty, King Dayu of Xia divided the world into nine provinces, and ordered the governors of Jiuzhou to contribute bronze and cast nine tripods to symbolize the nine provinces. They engrave the famous mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou in the country and the strange things on the body of the Jiuzhou, and use one tripod to symbolize a state, and concentrate the nine tripods in the capital of the Xia Dynasty.

"Records of the Grand Historian: Fengshan Book": "Yu collected the gold of the nine maids and cast nine tripods. He was once a prosperous man to God and ghosts. When he was saints, he would prosper. The tripod moved to Xia and Shang dynasties. Zhou Descends, and the Song community was destroyed. The tripod was destroyed and he was lost. He was buried and lost."

······

Zhou Rui tapped it gently on the red envelope, and the information on the red envelope was revealed.

The nine tripods in this red envelope are the Yongzhou tripods.

From the film and television world "The Legend of Miyue".

When Zhou Rui saw this information, he couldn't help but feel confused.

The Legend of Miyue?

Zhou Rui was speechless and continued to watch.

In the fourth year of King Wu of Qin (Yingdang), Qin State captured Yiyang, an important town in South Korea.

King Wu of Qin was overjoyed and led Ren Bi. Meng Ben and his group of warriors went to Yiyang to inspect, and then went straight into Luoyang to see the Zhou room.

King Nan of Zhou sent an envoy to welcome him in the suburbs, and King Wu of Qin went directly into the Mingtang of Taimiao to see the nine tripods.

King Wu of Qin surrounded the Jiuding and was amazed.

King Wu of Qin pointed to the Yong-word and sighed: "This is the Yongzhou tripod, which is the Qin tripod, and I should bring it back to Xianyang."

The official guarding the tripod said: "The King of Wu has set the tripod here and has not moved. Each tripod is as heavy as a thousand pounds and no one can lift it."

King Wu of Qin carried the cauldron half a foot away from the ground. Just as he was about to take a step, he failed without realizing his strength. The cauldron fell to the ground and was pressing on King Wu's right foot. With a click, he crushed his tibia. Everyone hurriedly helped him back to the mansion. King Wu of Qin was in unbearable pain and blood flowed. He was in the middle of the night and died of anger.

This King Wu of Qin is Ying Dang in the legend of Miyue.

······

After reading it, Zhou Rui couldn't help but click.

Unexpectedly, there is something like this.

Then, Zhou Rui opened the red envelope and took out the "Yongzhou Ding" from the red envelope.

I saw a huge bronze tripod about "one twelve feet" tall appear in front of him.

Three feet and two ears, and abdomen are round.

The body of the tripod is engraved with the "Dragon and Phoenix" pattern. In addition, the Yongzhou tripod is also engraved with the wonders of mountains and rivers.

There are mountains, water, lakes, grains, etc.

Very huge.

Volume 2 of "Shiyi Ji" says: "Yu casts nine tripods, five uses the method of responding to the yang, and four uses the number of yin. The craftsmen use female gold as the Yin tripod and male gold as the Yang tripod. The tripod is always full to observe the stagnation of the atmosphere. When the time of Jie in Xia, the water of the tripod suddenly boils. When the end of Zhou, the nine tripods are all shaken. They are all signs of destruction. Later saints, due to the traces of Yu, casting tripods from generation to generation."

······

Zhou Rui looked at the "Yongzhou Ding" in front of him and couldn't help but use his treasure appraisal technique to identify it.

As Zhou Rui moved, a ball of purple air was born, covering the Nine Cauldrons.

This ball of purple air is like the scorching sun, emitting strong light and heat.

Zhou Ruiqing couldn't help but squint her eyes.

After Zhou Rui got used to it, he opened his eyes, and the information about the Yongzhou tripod was also revealed.

In the early years of the Xia Dynasty, Dayu divided the world into nine provinces, and the states were established as governors.

Later Xia Qi ordered the governors of Jiuzhou to contribute bronze and cast nine tripods.

In advance, people were sent to draw famous mountains, rivers, beautiful places, and strange objects in the states across the country into picture albums, and then selected famous craftsmen were sent to imitate these paintings on the body of the nine tripods, symbolizing a state with one tripod.

The engraved figures also reflect the shape of the mountains and rivers in the state.

This wonderful scenery of mountains and rivers engraved on the Yongzhou tripod is the unique scenery of Yongzhou.

······

After the Nine Cauldrons were cast, they were protected by emperors of the Xia Dynasty.

However, dynasties change and worldly affairs change.

Jie of Xia perished and Tang of Shang was established.

After Shang Tang drove away Jie of Xia, he moved the Nine Tribes to his capital.

Pan Geng established his capital in the Yin Dynasty, and the Nine Tribes moved here.

Later, after King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang, he publicly displayed the Nine Tripods. After King Cheng of Zhou ascended the throne, Duke Dan of Zhou built Luoyi and moved the Nine Tripods to the city. He decided to establish Luoyi according to King Wu's wishes. He also asked King Cheng to preside over the sacrifice ceremony himself and place the Nine Tripods in the Taimiao.

After the Eastern Zhou Dynasty began, the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty declined, and the princes began to covet the royal power.

During the reign of King Ding of Zhou, King Zhuang of Chu "attacked the severity of the severity" for the first time, and was rejected by the Zhou doctor Wang Sunman.

Later, King Ling of Chu was also moved to the top, but failed due to a rebellion in the country.

During the reign of King Hui of Qin, Zhang Yi formulated a strategy, hoping to seize the Nine Cauldrons to command the princes, and King Qingxiang of Chu and King Qi also hoped to compete for the Baoding. King Nan of Zhou fought against the two countries, the Wei and Han dynasties, so that they could restrain each other and ensure that the Nine Cauldrons remained unresolved.

In the forty-two years of King Xian of Zhou, the Nine Cauldrons sank under the Si River in Pengcheng.

After Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, he was also looking for the Nine Cauldrons. In the 28th year of Qin Shihuang, after Qin Shihuang completed the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven on Mount Tai, he made a special trip to the shore of Sishui River in Pengcheng and sent people to salvage Zhou Ding, but there was no result.

······

Later, people kept going to Sishui to salvage the Nine Cauldrons, but it was all in vain.

After reading the information about Yongzhou Ding, Zhou Rui couldn't help but nod.

Zhou Rui was not very clear about that history, but he knew the story of "Si Shui Cauldron".

"Shui Jing Zhu·Si Shui" records very auspiciously and profoundly: "In the 42nd year of King Xian of Zhou, the nine tripods were destroyed in Siyuan. Qin Shihuang was seen at this water at times. The First Emperor said that his virtue was combined with three generations and was very happy, and thousands of people were unable to find it. The so-called "die was hidden"; he also said that he was tied and moved, but before he could come out, the dragon's teeth bit his teeth to break the connection, so he said: "It is said that the tripod was long ago" should be passed down by Meng Lang."

Translated, Qin Shihuang caught a turtle in Sishui, but just salvaged it out, a dragon suddenly appeared and bit off the rope.
