Who are the top ten mythical figures in China?

China's myths always give people an unsystematic impression, unlike Greek, Roman and myth. This is mainly because the myth of China is recorded in different notes and poems by different people of different factions. Because of different positions, there are many contradictory statements and different narratives. Although there are different opinions, I still rank in the top ten according to the difficulties overcome or contributions made by mythical figures, and on this basis, I try to sort out a thread for China mythology. 1. Pangu

Why did you say Pangu first? Because Pangu is the beginning of everything, everyone knows that Pangu created the world, but it didn't all open at once. According to records:? The sky is one foot high, the earth is one foot thick, and Pangu is one foot. So 18000 years later, the world opened. ? That is to say, Pangu grows a post every day and opens a world every day. It took 18,000 yuan to start the world, and there was nothing in the world, so Pangu turned all his organs and bodies into everything in the world, such as mountains and rivers. After Pangu died, there was chaos between heaven and earth. Haotian, also called in China? God? 、? God? , also known as the Eastern Taiyi Emperor, is equivalent to the Emperor of Heaven.

In addition, there are two ancient beasts, one is called Candle dragon, and the other is called Zuxiu, which is said to be formed by the organs of Pangu. According to Shan Hai Jing, Candle dragon said: The name of Zhongshan God is Yin Candle, and it is called summer when day is night and blowing is winter. He didn't drink or eat, but kept breathing like the wind. A thousand miles long. In the east, there is nothing, people are flushed and live under Zhongshan.

It is said that Candle dragon's eyes can illuminate nine ghosts. If you count the monsters in Shan Hai Jing, there must be Candle dragon in the top three. Zuzu is not famous, but it is very harmful. She ate dragons, then became enemies with Fuxi and Nu Wa, and was finally defeated by Haotian.

2. Fuxi Fuxi Nuwa Shennong among the three emperors and five emperors? Huang San? . Fuxi and Nuwa were brother and sister, and later they got married and had children. Was Pangu not a human being before? I think it is possible that Pangu became a senior person, that is, God, Fuxi and Nu Wa, just like Adam and Eve, and turned us into? Mortal? . Fuxi also got the book of Hetuluo, and then he could predict the future, so he was also listed.

3. Nu Wa Nu Wa is a kind of Huang San, and everyone is familiar with it. In the early stage, he was a tribal leader, not to mention his ability to govern the country. Her fighting capacity is also outstanding. In order to forge colorful stones, she can kill the giant turtle and the black dragon by herself and then make up for it.

4. Shennong

Huang San, one of Huang San, has a sequence. Nu Wa inherited Fuxi's rule. Later, a Shennong named Feng was born. Everyone knows the story of Shennong tasting a hundred herbs. Later, he taught medicine and agriculture He became the third tribal leader after Nu Wa. Although it is not so brilliant in combat effectiveness, it has made great contributions to mankind. In addition, it should be noted that Shennong and Yan Di are not the same person, and Yan Di should come from Shennong.

5. When Xuanyuan talked about Huang San, it was the Five Emperors era. The five emperors turned white in the southeast and northwest. No, they didn't turn white. The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan sits in the middle, with Fuxi in Di Qing (also a descendant of Fuxi) in the east, Shao Hao in Bai Di in the west, Zhuan Xu and Xuan Di in the north and Yan Di in Chi Di in the south.

Huangdi is more powerful. In the three major battles in the mythical era, the Yellow Emperor took the lead twice and finally won. The first is the battle between Hanquan and Emperor Yan. At that time, the Yellow Emperor brought Ying Long, Feng Hou and Ying Zhao here, and the soldiers were stronger than Ma Zhuang. There are also wild animals to help defeat Emperor Yan. Later, Chiyou, one of the tribal leaders of Emperor Yan, refused to accept it and fought the second deer war. This time, both sides brought out all kinds of wild animals and were beaten very black. Finally, the Yellow Emperor won. He not only had a good command ability in the war, but also was the first person to establish the Yellow Emperor to govern the country. What year is the History of Tao? Huangdi founded the country by land? . Thus laid the embryonic form of the country.

6. Yan Di Yan Di is also one of the five emperors. Although lost to the Yellow Emperor in the Battle of Hanquan, it can be seen that Yan Di was another powerful tribe at that time, and Yan Di was also the Vulcan and Kitchen God. He was the first person to teach people to use friction to make a fire and eat hot food, and he also made great contributions to casting metal utensils with fire, so later he came up with the concept that we are all descendants of the Chinese people. In addition, by the way, several descendants of Emperor Yan, such as Vulcan Zhu Rong. Besides, Yan Di's youngest daughter is famous? Jingwei? . As for why she reclaimed the sea, this is another story.

Why is Chiyou on the list? The main reason is that his fighting capacity is too strong. Chiyou is the leader of the ancient Jiuli tribe. He has eighty-one brothers (and eighty-one tribes). He is strong, eats sand and drinks stones, and is good at fighting. So the Yellow Emperor was very passive at first, so he had to let Ying Long store water to resist Chiyou. Chiyou invited Fengbo's rain master, Ying Long, to thunder and break the water.

At this critical juncture, the Yellow Emperor found Nuwa, the goddess of the dry land. Chiyou also defeated the Yellow Emperor's army with dense fog. Fortunately, within nine days, Xuan Nv led the Yellow Emperor to invent the South Locomotive to tell the direction and successfully rushed out of the dense fog blockade. After several battles, the Yellow Emperor finally captured Chiyou in the middle of Hebei and won a great victory. But this war also made Chiyou famous in World War I and was regarded as a god of war by later generations.

8. Zhuan Xu Zhuan Xu is one of the Five Emperors. We talked about the three battles of China myth. The third world war was the battle between Zhuan Xu and Gonggong. Compared with the meat shield with strong physical properties, Zhuan Xu is a magic system with strong magical properties. Zhuan Xu won the battle, of course, but the consequences were quite serious, because * * * workers demolished the island, so Nu Wa had to mend the sky.

Of course, after this war, the descendants of Emperor Yan finally surrendered to the Yellow Emperor tribe, and their hearts were United.

9. In front of these rulers, Hou Yi was a tribal leader, and it was after China mythology began to have heroes, just like Hercules and theseus in Greek mythology.

There are some conspiracy theories about Hou Yi's deeds. We know that Houyi shoots the sun, but where do these suns come from? The leaders at that time were Yao, Yao's cousin and goddess He. They gave birth to ten suns, ten suns. Somehow, they came into this world at the same time, and at the same time, there appeared such evil spirits as hunger, gnawing teeth, nine babies, high winds, sealing gods and repairing snakes. It seems that Yao's resistance to the throne is still quite big.

Hou Yi shot nine suns, leaving one to hang clothes for everyone, and then killing the fierce beasts mentioned above one by one, which is simply a heroic road. After these achievements, Yao's reputation reached its peak, but Hou Yi was abandoned by heaven and earth and could not ascend to heaven. His wife Chang 'e didn't want to live in the world, stole the elixir of life and went to heaven, leaving Hou Yi to suffer alone on earth. Heroes always end in tragedy, as it seems at home and abroad.

10. Dayu is another hero in China mythology. Everyone knows that Dayu is in charge of water conservancy, but Dayu also cleaned up two workers. He killed hydra Liu Xiang in the north of Kunlun Mountain and green hairy ape Wu in Huaishui. This shows Dayu's fighting capacity.
