In 215 BC, Qin Shihuang, who had just unified Liuhe, brought a super luxurious team to a seaside hill called "Shenyue". He wanted to sacrifice to the God of the Sea here and ask for the elixir of immortality.
At that time, the chief technical advisor for the First Emperor's sacrifice was an alchemist named Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng’s skills were very good. After some operations, Poseidon appeared in front of Qin Shihuang:
Poseidon was huge, with the head of a human and the body of a fish. He spoke human words and had a strange face. It was so ugly that it even felt ashamed of itself. The first thing it said when seeing the First Emperor was "Don't draw me."
The First Emperor was a man who never followed other people's orders. Facing Poseidon, he still agreed outwardly, but secretly traced Poseidon's face with his feet.
Poseidon was a god who, in a fit of rage, retreated into the sea, vowing never to appear again.
Poseidon kept his promise. More than a hundred years later, another young man named Liu Che, who claimed to be the first emperor, got the legend of Poseidon. In 110 BC, he came to the place where Qin Shihuang met Poseidon. , offering sacrifices to the Poseidon, refining elixirs to find medicine, and longing to meet the Poseidon. Liu Che waited devoutly for seventy-seven forty-nine days, but Poseidon still did not appear.
The Poseidon was locked in the deep sea by his oath.
No one on land has ever seen it again.
To be honest, I am not bragging, and Xigui has never seen it.
However, the legend of Poseidon in the world has become more and more popular with each passing day, and the pursuit of Poseidon has never stopped for a moment.
Another three hundred years later, the first courtier under Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, whose nickname was Ah Hao, led an army to pacify the north and returned in triumph. He passed by the "Shenyue" and remembered the first emperor Han Wu and this hill. According to legend, at the age of fifty-three, he suddenly became so heroic that he climbed a mountain to watch the sea. The Poseidon was still missing, but Ah Ma had no regrets at all, because he saw another goddess from the distant Mediterranean on the sea: Muse.
Under the guidance of the muse, Aman's thoughts surged like a spring and he sang in the wind:
"Viewing the Sea", "October in Winter", "The Scholars Are Different", "Though the Turtle" life".
Written four songs in one breath. Even the introduction "Yan" in front of these four songs is a masterpiece of poetry. Together they are called "Stepping out of Xiamen Xing".
Especially "Viewing the Sea" and "The Turtle Lives Longevity", these songs should only exist in heaven, and have been sung to this day.
Viewing the Sea
To the east is Jieshi to view the sea.
How can the water be dull? The mountains and islands are standing tall.
There are many trees and lush grass.
The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rising.
The journey of the sun and the moon, if it comes out of it.
The stars are as brilliant as if they came from within.
Fortunately, I sing to express my ambition.
Although the tortoise has a long life
Although the divine tortoise has a long life, it still has its time;
A snake rides on the mist, but in the end it becomes ashes.
The old man is still ambitious, but his ambition is thousands of miles;
The martyrs are ambitious in their old age.
The period of profit and contraction is not only in heaven;
If you cultivate good fortune, you can gain eternal life.
Fortunately, I sing to express my ambition.
Ah Ma, who is over half a hundred years old, is a wise man. He no longer believes in immortality. "Although the turtle has a lifespan, it will still have its end." Life is the same for humans and turtles. It is impossible to live forever. However, he is not decadent, "I am an old man who is brave but has great ambitions."
The past is thousands of years old.
Late summer of 1954 AD.
Poet Mao Runzhi, the great proletarian revolutionist and great mentor of the Chinese people, led a group of comrades to Beidaihe for a meeting.
One day there was heavy rain and strong winds, the sea was vast, the white waves were surging, the wind and thunder were roaring, and the fishing boats were making waves. Chairman Mao, who was over sixty years old, was moved by the scene. "Sha. Beidaihe" in one stroke:
Heavy rain falls on Youyan, white waves surge into the sky, and fishing boats are fishing outside Qinhuangdao.
If you can’t see the vast ocean, who do you know where to go?
Thousands of years passed before Wei Wu whipped his whip, and there was a posthumous chapter in Jieshi in the east.
The bleak autumn wind is here again, and the world has changed.
The name of Qinhuangdao comes from Qin Shihuang, and Wei Wu is Ah Ma. Thousands of years ago, the mountains and seas remain the same, but the world has changed.
The chairman's pride and style also lie in "changing the world."
Emperors of Qin, Han, Wu, Wei, and Chairman Mao are so closely related to this place. Where is this place?
This is Jieshi Mountain.
Jieshi Mountain, located in today's Hebei Province, was the sacred mountain in ancient times except for May.
Jieshi Mountain belongs to the remnants of Yanshan Mountain, and its main peak is Xiantai Peak. It is an excellent place for climbing and viewing the sea.
Jieshi Mountain is said to be named after Dayu. It was mentioned in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, this was a good place to stay and cultivate immortality.
However, it is the immortal poems of Wei Wu, Cao Cao and Chairman Mao that really make Jieshi Mountain famous in the world, rather than the gods, monsters and elixirs of Emperor Qin and Han Dynasty.
