By studying six newly excavated tombs in Sanxingdui, I have a new understanding of the difficulty of Shu Dao. Today, it plays a great role in exploring the mystery of Sanxingdui, tracing back to the source of Xia Dynasty, understanding the background of ancient poems and correctly translating them. I want to share the following points.
(Background: The excavation of Sanxingdui Ancestor Sacrifice Pit leads to an allusion. The Xia Dynasty destroyed the country for a thousand years, and King Shang Tang destroyed Xia Hou, so a new Xia society had to be established in the Central Plains. There is also Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty, who is part of the inside story! )
(This poem was first recorded in the Collection of Heroes Crossing the River compiled by Yin Kun in the 12th year of Tianbao, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (753). So it should be that when Li Bai was 45 years old, he worked in imperial academy, Chang 'an for less than three years (AD 745), and was forced to leave Chang 'an because of oppression by powerful people and hopeless career. )
Li Bai in Tang Dynasty
Hey, hey, it's dangerous! It's very, very dangerous to talk about this! )
The difficulty of Shu Dao is difficult to go to the sky! Speaking of Shu Dao and the history of ancient Shu, it is more difficult than going to heaven, and it is not difficult at all times! )
Until the two rulers of this area forced their way through in the foggy age! (Legend has it that the first monarch of ancient Shu was called Can Cong, and the later monarch was called Yu Fan. Although there are some legends left by the people, the history of ancient Shu from the founding of the People's Republic to the pre-Qin period is blank! )
Forty-eight thousand years have passed. Don't talk to Qin Sai. The ancient Shu kingdom has a long history, but it was only in the pre-Qin period that the history of the ancient Shu kingdom was artificially cut off! )
And Dabaishan, to the west, still has only one bird path, all the way to the peak of Emei. Although the history of ancient Shu has been cut off, the connection between Shu and the Central Plains has always existed, and the ancient Shu Road connecting Taibai Qinling, West Shu Emei Mountain and the Central Plains has existed since ancient times. Note: Taste carefully, and then taste ...)
Once it was broken by an earthquake, some brave people lost it, and then the ladder stone pile was hooked. In those days, the ancient Shu plank road was built on Wuding Mountain, and the connection exchanged with the life of a strong man is like the close connection between a ladder and a stone crib, which will never be cut off! )
High, such as on a high banner, six dragons drive the sun, (the Shu Road goes up, such as six dragons circling the mountain, such as the "sun" turning into the sky)
And the river in the distance below violently impacts its twisted channel. (Down the Shu Road, along the mountain stream, rushing against the waves, turning into a "Sichuan". )
Such a height is difficult for a yellow crane, poor monkey, they only have claws to use.
(Really, it is difficult for a yellow crane to fly across, and an ape is anxious to climb. )
The Green Mud Mountain is made up of many circles. For every hundred steps, we have to turn nine times in the middle of its mound.
The muddy mountain road covered with moss is so messy. The ancient Shu plank road was built on a cliff, and it was quite difficult to climb. )
Panting, we passed Orion, passed Jingxing, and then fell to the ground with our arms folded and groaned.
Sit down and look up at the starry sky, southwest of Sichuan. Two stars in the deep well twinkled in the night sky and cried like tears. The tragic past is vivid, and people have to ask their hearts and caress their chests. They were so sad that they couldn't help sighing. )
We don't know whether this road to the west will never end. The road ahead is getting darker and darker.
(alas ~! I, Li Bai, left Sichuan from the Three Gorges in the 13th year of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty (AD 725, at the age of 25), went down the river, returned to the West via Dongting Lake, and came to Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. It has been 20 years (45 years old), and the official career is bumpy, the officialdom is difficult to enter, and the secular dignitaries are as hard as a rock to climb. I don't know, it will take a long time to go back to my hometown! (Li Bai grew up in jiangyou city, Mianyang, Sichuan when he was a child, and now there is a memorial hall for Li Bai. Note: Li Bai has never entered the official career or returned to his hometown because of the failure of his official career and the turmoil of the current situation. )
Nothing can be heard except the cries of birds surrounded by ancient forests. The male bird rotates smoothly and follows the female bird.
Through the ancient Woods, birds can be heard from a distance. It turned out to be a couple of male and female birds, and their young bird just died. A male bird and a female bird wandered in the forest, singing and refusing to leave. )
Jathyapple, what comes to us is the melancholy voice of Du Fu, a sad empty mountain.
(I also heard the cuckoo's plaintive cry, and sang all night under the bleak moonlit night, and the sad atmosphere filled the whole empty mountain. )
It's hard to get through the Shu Road, and it's hard to get to the sky. It turns pale when you smell it!
(This scene, and then associated with the bloody and dark officialdom, the truth of the demise of the ancient Shu State, is really too bad! ! ! It makes people turn blue. )
The highest cliff is less than a foot from heaven, and the withered pine trees hang low on the cliff surface.
Shu Mountain is majestic and strange, continuous, with towering peaks, as if it were less than a foot away from the sky. A thousand-year-old pine, with its dry and vigorous trunk, hangs upside down and leans on the cliff. )
One thousand waterfalls rushed forward one after another, sending out the thunder of rotating stones in ten thousand valleys.
(Rapidly falling waterfalls, the water rushing to make a sound, colliding with each other, flying down from the cliff, falling into the pool, hitting the rocks with water, and the sound of ripples is like the thunder of thousands of valleys exploding. )
You've come a long way at all risks!
(Really, it's too close! This world can't be more dangerous than this Shu Dao and officialdom. Since Shu Dao and officialdom are so sinister, why do some people go to Shu to ask for an official despite difficulties and dangers? In short, I've been asking for it all my life! ~)
Although the pass of the watchtower is strong and steep, one person guards it and ten thousand people can't beat it.
(There is also the sword gate of Guangyuan, which guards the throat of Shu Dao. The stone stairs for customs clearance are steep and long, and the city pavilion stands towering among the mountains, which is so majestic and extraordinary. The whole city is magnificent, full of dangers, and it is difficult for ten thousand people to attack with one person guarding it. )
(Sigh: Shu Dao, this world, this society is so sinister! ! ! ... it's a pity that Li Bai thinks that very talented person is handsome and extraordinary, and stands out from the crowd. Brilliant as he is, he can't serve his country. How I want to be the sword gate! )
What if he is not loyal, but a wolf to his companions? .
(Once the situation changes and the officialdom fluctuates, no matter who promoted and protected you before, or people who have always been at odds with your political views, trying to preserve our sanity for their own selfish desires will turn into wolves and tigers, and turn against you and ruthlessly crowd out and suppress you. )
There are hungry tigers in the daytime, and there are poisonous reptiles at night. Their teeth and fangs are ready to kill people like hemp.
Being an official in the Chang 'an court in the Tang Dynasty is like being in the mountain of Shu. You should avoid tigers during the day and snakes at night. The bloody darkness of officialdom is really sharp-toothed and murderous! )
(I can't help thinking that Xia Jie, Shang and Zhou Dynasties and Western Qin Dynasties in ancient Shu changed dynasties three times in history, and they were as bloody and brutal as wolves and as murderous as hemp. ... this is the truth! ! ! )
Although the Silk City is beautiful, I'd rather go home soon.
I used to pass through Chengdu, the city of Jin officials, when I first got out of Shu, which was much more enjoyable than now! That time was really the happiest and most unforgettable time in my life. It seems that if you can't be an official, you might as well go home early. )
It's hard to get through the Shu Road, but it's hard to get into the sky. Look sideways to the west and ask for advice!
(Leaning sideways, looking at Chang 'an in the west, I left home for Shu at the age of 25. When I was young, my ideal was to be a big official. A 20-year career really seems to be more difficult than going to heaven! Really, time has been wasted and nothing has been achieved! With a sigh, when can I return home dressed ~! )
(sigh: recalling the past and recalling the present, I feel the same! It's really hard ~ ah!
~ Today, this blank ancient Shu history is really hard to feel ~! )
(And Dabaishan, to the west, still has only one bird path, all the way to the peak of Emei. This "West" has been looking sideways for a long time! , that is, Western Qin. This "unique" is a blank in the history of ancient Shu)
Cause: Huayang Guozhi: "The King of Shu met the King of Qin Hui. Send Shi Niu back. It is a mockery of what the Qin people said about "herding calves in the East". "
The ancient Shu kingdom has been the orthodoxy of the Chinese nation since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. During the period of Huangdi, he married Huangdi and his descendants and participated in China's state affairs. Therefore, the King of Shu ridiculed that Qin was not as orthodox as Shu.
Consequence: Qin destroyed Shu, leaving a blank history of ancient Shu.
"Huayang National Records": (Qin) Sima Cuo and Tian Yue said: "There is a chaos between (Xia) and (Shang) in Shu, and the country is rich and strong, and the cloth, silk, gold and silver are enough for military use."
This is the traditional orthodoxy of the ancient Shu kingdom. Because the King of Shu mocked Qin for not being as orthodox as Shu, he was hated and destroyed the country, leaving a historical gap in the pre-Qin period. Sanxingdui was buried twice at the end of Xia and Shang Dynasties, and the truth was recorded in the history books of the two ancient Shu wars before Qin Dynasty.
The ancients wrote poems, especially the great poet Li Bai, paying attention to the blending of scenes, landscape narration, affection and elegance. There is a strong background of the times and life story behind the general words!
