I started Hyakki Night Walk in Tokyo

Chapter 408

Chi You was the chief of the Jiuli Tribal Alliance in the ancient times of Huaguo, and also the leader of the Niu Totem and Niaotu Clans.

In Huaguo mythology, he is the Lord of War and God of War!

There are 81 brothers (about 81 clans and tribes), all of whom are extraordinary in ability and brave and good at fighting.

Worth to talk about.

Chi You and Emperor Yan belonged to the same tribe, and because of conflicts, they left Emperor Yan to develop on their own.

Legend has it that Chiyou was ordered by God to fight against Yanhuang, so he fought against Emperor Yan, and Emperor Yan was defeated by Chiyou.

So Yandi and Huangdi joined forces to fight against the enemy. Chiyou led 81 brothers to fight against Huangdi in Zhuolu, and was finally defeated by the Yanhuang tribe.

Chi You's power has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people since ancient times. If Emperor Yan and Huang Di did not join forces, the historical results would be rewritten.

Huangdi and Yandi are the ancestors of the Hua Kingdom. Their status is so high that no one can surpass them in ancient and modern times. They are the supreme existence.

However, Chi You forced them to fight against the enemy together, and Chi You was defeated.

It is also true that even if he is the defeated party, he has been passed down through the ages and is well-known to everyone. He has been highly praised by the world since ancient times, and even the Yellow Emperor respected him as the "Master of War".

According to legend, Chi You's fighting power is astonishing, his military strength is all-powerful, and his bravery is incomparable. No one in ancient times can compete with him.

Even the Yellow Emperor was incapable of defeating him, so he invited the gods to help him defeat him. In that battle, the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and blood flowed like rivers.

And such an ancient great figure who is on par with Huangdi and Yandi, and even surpassed him, Shangchuanzun is actually related to him, he is a descendant of Chiyou!

Rao has experienced many major events and witnessed many scenes that have shocked the past and the present, but Director Takahashi and the others were extremely surprised when they learned that Shang Chuan Zun was related to Chi You.

"Shang Chuan Zun is a descendant of Chi You, Yoshimura, are you sure?!"

Professor Kitayama couldn't help asking.

As a professor of history, he is an authority on history. China has a deep relationship with Japan, and he knows the history of China very well.

He couldn't figure out how Shang Chuan Zun's Ashiya family hooked up with Chi You.

Not to mention other things, just talk about time and time.

Chi You, that is a character from the ancient times, and Shang Chuanzun has been separated from him for a long time. How did Yoshimura Muraki and the others investigate Chi You, the older the age, the more difficult it is to investigate.

Otherwise, he would not have investigated the origin of Kamikawa Zun last time. After investigating for a long time, he accidentally got clues from his mouth and found out that he was a descendant of Ashiya Michimitsu.

But now, Yoshimura Muraki actually found out that Shang Chuanzun was related to Chi You, how did he do it.

"Last time you checked Ashiya's house, it was very difficult, why did you find Chi You from Taikoo." Professor Nakata also questioned.

Others were more or less skeptical.

They have made guesses about the relationship between the Ashiya family and the Huaguo mythology, and they all agree with this view.

But guessing is guessing, and it is believed that the Ashiya family has something to do with the myth of Huaguo, but it never occurred to them that the Ashiya family has a relationship with Chi You, or is his descendant.

After all, it was Chi You.

Furthermore, they never thought that the Ashiya family was such a powerful force in the Chinese mythology, because there were only two people born in the Ashiya family, one was Kamikawa Zun and the other was Ashiya Michimitsu.

The power of his family is unknown, and it is difficult for people to connect with the great power of Huaguo mythology.

After all, the most important point is that the Ashiya family is only an ancient force in Japanese mythology on the surface. Compared with the Chinese mythology, there is still a big gap between the Japanese mythology and the Huaguo mythology. Not impressive.

Yoshimura did not hide anything, and answered truthfully:

"The investigation on the relationship between the Ashiya family and the Huaguo myth did not make any progress at the beginning. We checked all the surnames in Huaguo, and there was no double surname like Ashiya.

It wasn't until not long ago that the investigators found out that there seemed to be someone with the surname of Shangchuan in Huaguo, and that was when they raised their eyebrows.

At that time, when I heard the news, I immediately sent someone to investigate, but later I found out that the person with the surname Shangchuan was not the double surname Shangchuan at all.

His father's surname is Shang and his mother's surname is Chuan. His parents added the two surnames together to give him the name Shang Chuan. The pronunciation of Shang Chuan and Shang Chuan are the same in Chinese, and the investigators were misled because of this.

I mistakenly thought that Huaguo had the surname of Shangchuan.

Although Huaguo does not have Shangchuan's surname, our investigators got clues from it and found that the investigation clues may be wrong.

For a long time, we traced the relationship between the Ashiya family and Huaguo mythology, but from the perspective of Japanese characters, without considering that if the Ashiya family came from Huaguo mythology, then the name should follow the Chinese perspective.

Afterwards, we checked the Chinese pronunciation of Ashiya to see if there was a surname with a similar Chinese pronunciation.

There is another reason for this investigation.

Our investigators have checked that in ancient China, the ancients often liked to use homonyms to imply certain people and things that could not be said directly.

For example, in the Qing Dynasty in Huaguo, there was a small allusion passed down from generation to generation in the south of the Yangtze River, saying that there was a tavern whose business was sluggish, and a scholar wrote a couplet.

Don't care about east, west, wine.

Whether you are happy or not, drink it.

The homonym of 'guan' here is 'guan', and the homonym of 'stop' is 'bar'.

As soon as the couplet came out, it was hung in front of the tavern. The guests found it interesting, so they came in to drink. Since then, the business has improved.

In addition, there are many, many homophonic poem couplets and so on.

Not only homophonic poems, but also the homonym of names is a major culture of the Chinese people.

People in Huaguo are not as casual about naming names as us Japanese. People who rely on mountains have the surname of Shanzhong, and people who rely on water have the surname Mizuno.

People in Huaguo are very knowledgeable in naming. There has been a saying of rectifying names since ancient times.

The quality of the name has a great influence on the fate of life, and this influence comes from people's cultural psychology.

The name culture is part of the traditional culture of Huaguo, and it enriches the language of Huaguo.

Names involve a wide range of content, and are closely related to certain factors such as history, nationality, culture, hell, customs, etc. Even in modern China, names are studied as a special knowledge, called "name study".

However, in ancient China, and even in modern times, the custom of naming names often seeks good luck and avoids evil due to the phenomenon of homophony.

For example, few people add a word that sounds homonymous to "pirate" in a person's name. Even if they want to add it, it will not be a single character, but other characters will be added to neutralize it to make it rich in beautiful meaning.

This method of homophonic naming is called: homophonic Xingyi method.

People like to use homonyms when naming their children. For example, people with the surname of Yu are named "Yu Deshui", those with the surname of Niu are named "Niu Decao", and those with the surname Zhu are named "Zhu Man Ting", which is homonymous to "Zhu Man Ting", meaning full. House pearls are eye-catching.

From Huaguo's naming culture, our investigators consider whether the Ashiya surname of the Ashiya family is actually a homonym.

So I began to look for the homophonic surnames of the word 'Ash House', the word 'Lu', and the word 'House', hoping to find clues. "

Yoshimura Munyoshi said a series of words, and ran all the way back with the investigation report, his mouth was dry, and when he hurriedly said this, he picked up the drink that was often served on the table and took a sip.

Then, he continued...

(PS: An author friend said something to me today, I think it makes sense, he said, "My friends write novels with my BB all day long, and I will end up in a dead end, as if I can achieve great things without writing novels" .)
