Chapter 5554 The ancient inheritance is the inheritance of the name

The ancestor's tone was long and slow, as if in the clear smoke, everyone's eyes and thoughts were drawn into the "corpse pit, full of broken arms and limbs, and even noble ladies were used for sacrifices.

Unlike other people who were cut into pieces, she was

There is a whole corpse, but a long horn was inserted directly into her lower body. Even after thousands of years, the female corpse has long been transformed into a skeleton, with that terrifying and painful twist on her face.

The expression is still frightening."

The black robe gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Almost no one in the Central Plains knows how to do this kind of technique. Even the sacrifices of the Shang Dynasty were not so barbaric and cruel. It must be the work of that ghost. So, we

The familiar stories about Yao, Shun and others' abdication and virtue are actually all lies, and they were all invaded by powerful foreign enemies such as ghosts, like the dog army attacking King You of Zhou, and violently destroying the country?"

Doupeng suddenly waved his hand: "Wait a minute, if it is as the ancestor said, the Guifang clan attacks cities and plunders the land, not to massacre and rob, but to occupy those places for a long time and occupy the city where they are.

The people of the city, the army and the people, forever

He became his own slave and was driven by him. Then why did the ghosts not stay after they conquered Taosi and destroyed the Tang Dynasty? Instead, they took the spoils and prisoners away from Taosi, leaving only ruins.

What will our descendants find out?"

The ancestor smiled slightly: "Because, the ones who attacked Taosi back then were not mainly the Guifang tribe, but the Tang Dynasty border generals stationed at Shimao City Fortress, or in other words, the Tang Dynasty tribal leaders in the Shimao area.

For some reason, the people from the Gui Fang tribe invaded, just like the dog soldiers attacking and destroying King You of Zhou.

With the help of Marquis Shen to lead the way, he could become familiar with the terrain, not get lost, and conquer Haojing in one fell swoop. Without such an internal ghost to guide the way, as a foreigner, he was not familiar with the situation in China, let alone the internal situation of the garrison.

How dare the tribe dare to go deep into the Taosi area in the south of Bingzhou and destroy the country and massacre the city?"

The black robe frowned: "That's true. It turns out that the invasion was caused by internal strife. So, the tribe stationed in the Shimao area is the real culprit?"

The ancestor said calmly: "Yes, the records related to this period of history have been completely burned. You can't see it. In fact, I haven't seen it either. But when I was practicing, I once talked with my ancestors in heaven.

After communicating with the spirits of the gods, they mentioned this matter and said that it was because after Emperor Yao came to the throne

, used benevolence to make the princes of the world obey, but Yao was the same as Di Zhi, the elder brother of the emperor before him. They were both the sons of Emperor Ku. In fact, starting from Emperor Ku, it was no longer abdication, but the death of father and son.

After that, Emperor Yao took over the throne from his brother Emperor Zhi and became the fourth among the Five Emperors."

Doupeng laughed: "Speaking of which, Emperor Yao's brother did not do very well. The princes in the world were dissatisfied and returned to the situation of separation. Probably, it was because he did not make concessions to Emperor Ku and instead allowed his son to ascend the throne.

I am dissatisfied. If Emperor Yao had not been known as a virtuous and benevolent person after he came to the throne, I am afraid that in our Chinese dynasty, where the tradition of succession after father's death would not have been Xia Qilai's turn to set this precedent."

The ancestor smiled slightly and said: "Yes, in fact, the transition from the abdication system, or from the appointment of talents, to the inheritance of power by descendants, is what we have said before, from a matrilineal tribe to a patrilineal tribe.

In the process of transfer, the father of Huangdi and Yandi, Shaodian, went from the Xiong tribe to the Qiao tribe. After marrying two women, they gave birth to Emperor Yan and Huangdi respectively. Later, the Qiao tribe was led by Yandi Shennong.

Take over

, and Shaodian and the Huangdi Xuanyuan clan returned to the Youxiong tribe, and Huangdi became the clan leader. This shows that at the time of Shaodian, it was still a matrilineal tribe. This Shaodian was probably the result of intermarriage between tribes, or after tribal conflicts.

The Qiao tribe was captured, and in the end his two sons took over the control of the two tribes respectively. Obviously, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang became the clan leaders through abdication, which also proves that at that time, the world was still dominated by matrilineal tribes."

"Later, the Qiao tribe and the Youxiong tribe separated, and the names of the tribe leaders were collectively referred to as Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang. It took hundreds of thousands of years for the two tribes to reunite again. By this time, the world was probably at war.

In the era of patrilineal tribes, especially the Xiong tribe, or the Xuanyuan tribe, where the Yellow Emperor belonged, this was a tribe with abundant military force and strong fighting power, and such warrior tribes often had a large number of strong men.

Charge into the conflict

, whether it is hunting or fighting, men with superior strength, stature, and wisdom have an advantage, so the leaders of these two tribes have become men at this time, namely Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor. When the two tribes unite,

Defeating the powerful Sanmiao and Jiuli tribes in the Central Plains, the Yan and Huang merged and became the lord of the world. This is also the origin of our Chinese clan. This origin is obviously determined by the patriarchal tribe. Otherwise, our ancestors would have been pushed to

Shaodian."

Doupeng nodded and said seriously: "It's just that the Huangdi tribe and the Yandi tribe have entered the patrilineal era. It does not mean that other tribes are also the same. I am afraid that most tribes in the world are still in the matrilineal era at this time. From the time of Huangdi's grandson Zhuanxu,

After the Yellow Emperor sat on the sky

It can also be seen that the position of the son was not clearly defined at that time, whether it was passed down from son to grandson, or from brother to brother. I am afraid that it was still based on virtue, and the children born in the tribe were, after all,

I’m afraid no one can guarantee whether it was born by me.”

The ancestor nodded with satisfaction: "Venerable Doupeng said it very well. History books say that Zhuanxu is the grandson of Huangdi, and then Emperor Ku is the descendant of another son of Huangdi. However, there are many emperors in these lineages.

The record that the mother swallowed a bird's egg and was born by Meng Tianshen is actually covering up the child's real biological father. Think of that movie

Although the tribe leader has transitioned from maternal to paternal lineage, he often only knows his mother and not his father very well, because the concept of a small family has not been strictly established, and it is unlikely that a woman in the tribe will only be with one man for her whole life.

The various morals and etiquette we have today regarding intercourse and childbirth were not widely accepted in ancient times."

"So, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, including their subsequent Five Emperors era, can actually only be said to be the continuation of a certain tribe, rather than the descendants of the tribal leader himself. Just like the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor are just the names of the leaders of these two tribes.

With the same number, it is impossible for the two leaders who fought against Chi You in Zhuolu, Hebei, to be the two sons of Shaodian. This is the same reason." (End of Chapter)
