Chapter 268 Dragon Totem and Xuanyuan Clan

For example, a certain clan in a cold area regards a black bear as a totem, and another clan uses a brown bear as a totem.

When a clan develops to a certain extent, some neighboring clans will form alliances and form tribes.

The totem of this tribe may be a certain species, no longer divided into species.

For example, after a clan whose totem is a black bear combines with a clan whose totem is a brown bear to form a tribe, the totem of this tribe becomes a bear, and no distinction is made between black bears and brown bears.

With the further development of human beings, tribes will merge again, or form tribal alliances through geographical integration.

Tribal confederation is the basis for forming a nation.

The process of developing from a tribal alliance to a nation is the process in which the totem of the most powerful tribe becomes the totem of the nation.

Fuxi is called the ancestor of mankind, and Nuwa is called the "creator" of mankind.

The totem of their tribe is the snake.

In mythological records, these two people are called "creation gods".

And their images are all human heads and snake bodies.

There is actually an inextricable relationship between snakes and dragons, which is difficult to separate.

As the saying goes, a snake walks away from a dragon, and a dragon turns into a dragon.

It is recorded in "Shu Yi Ji" that in 500 years, the jiao turned into a jiao, in a thousand years, a jiao turned into a dragon, in 500 years, a dragon became a horned dragon, and in a thousand years, it became a Yinglong.

And there are similar legends about Yu. It is said that after his father Gun died, a yellow dragon flew out of his body, and that dragon was Yu's real body.

This legend may also have a certain relationship with Dayu's flood control.

After all, in myths and legends, one of the characteristics of dragons is that they can call wind and rain.

And since ancient times, in the legend of Hua Guolong, the skills of the dragon species are all based on water.

Time came after the Yellow Emperor defeated Emperor Yan and Chi You, and became the largest tribe in the Central Plains.

But the Yellow Emperor encountered a problem, how can he make his totem look unique and not collide with other tribes?

After thinking hard, Huangdi thought of a way, which is to splice Dafa.

Referring to the totems of other tribes, and based on the snake totem of Fuxi and Nuwa, I added fish scales, horse heads, lion noses, tiger eyes, ox tongues, antlers, ivory, sheep whiskers, eagle claws, and dog tails.

Created a new totem, named "Dragon".

But Huangdi himself denied this statement.

"Your records are wrong, the facts are not like this!"

"The human clan was created by Fuxi and Nuwa, and then split into three relatively large forces: me, Shennong, and Chiyou."

"I defeated the two of them, then I am the largest tribe in the Central Plains."

"In this case, it's okay for me to say that I'm Fuxi's most orthodox successor?"

Everyone nodded in unison. There is indeed nothing wrong with this statement.

"So I inherited the snake totem!"

"However, I'm not the only one who uses snakes as their totems. I don't think this is okay."

"My original intention is to eliminate or integrate all tribes with snakes as their totems."

"In this way, only my Xuanyuan clan has a snake as a totem."

Everyone nodded again. After the merger of the tribes, it is true that whoever is the boss will use his totem.

And there is nothing wrong with Huangdi's idea, starting from the tribe with the snake as its totem.

Everyone worships the same totem, and it is easier to accept it.

"Later, the tribe integration of the snake totem was completed, and it was time to integrate other tribes."

"In order for them to better accept and join my Xuanyuan tribe."

"I chose a part of their totem and added it to our tribe's original snake totem."

"After the integration of the tribes is completed, the original snake totem will become the snake totem you see now."

In that era of sparse population and low force value, population is a very important resource.

Therefore, tribal leaders will not easily kill people from other tribes.

For them, merging together to make the tribe stronger is a better choice.

[It turns out that this is how the dragon totem came from, and the knowledge has increased. 】

[This method is absolutely perfect. The snake totem of the main body remains unchanged, and some parts of other totems are added to it. Other tribes can also accept it, but in fact the core is still the snake. 】

[So this dragon totem is actually the beginning of the Chinese people, right?After all, according to records, we are actually descendants of the Yellow Emperor. 】

[No wonder those emperors say that they are the real dragon emperors. After all, the creator of the dragon totem is the Yellow Emperor who unified the Central Plains. 】

【It turns out that we are the descendants of the dragon. That’s how it came about. 】

[No, no, the descendant of the dragon is a saying after the founding of the country, and it has not always been like this. 】

[And when it comes to Huaguo people, they are more said to be descendants of Yanhuang and Huaxia people. 】

Huang Di was not happy to hear this statement.

"No, I don't know where the Huaxia people came from, and I don't express any opinions."

"But there is obviously something wrong with this descendant of Yanhuang."

"I am the one who unified the Central Plains. Shouldn't I be a descendant of Huang Yan?"

Emperor Yan secretly laughed when he heard the words, so in the eyes of later generations, is his status higher than Xuanyuan's?

Chi You's face was full of unhappiness.

"Shen Nong has been added, so is it difficult to add Chi You?"

"What descendants of Yan and Huang, descendants of Huang Yan, called..." After mumbling for a long time, Chi You couldn't figure out how to combine the names of the three of them.

"I have done some research on this, let me explain to you." Father Chu said with a smile.

"Actually, descendants of the Yellow Emperor is a small concept."

"It mainly refers to the descendants developed on the basis of the two tribes of Yandi and Huangdi..."

Father Chu was interrupted by Huang Di before he finished speaking.

"You explain to me first, why is it Yanhuang instead of Huang Yan?" Huang Di was very persistent about this.

"Why else, you are not as popular as Emperor Yan."

Chi You obviously learned from Qin Shihuang how to poke his heart to make it more painful.

Sure enough, the Yellow Emperor was furious when he heard the words.

It is more convenient to wear rough clothes and look around for what to use as a weapon.

The people around the Yellow Emperor dispersed a little.

Compared to more than an hour ago, when Huang Di broke his defense because of Chi You's words, he directly picked up a tourist standing next to him and threw it in Chi You's face.

Now the tourist is still in the medical center, has taken half of the elixir, and is currently undergoing a physical examination.

"There are several reasons for this. One is that the tribe of the Shennong clan was established before the Xuanyuan clan."

"Secondly, in terms of age, Emperor Yan is older than you."

"Thirdly, Emperor Yan discovered herbs and five grains, and planted them with five grains, which opened the history of the farming nation."

"At that time, it was still a tribal alliance in the primitive society, and the people of the Yandi tribe used fire to cook their food."

"In the history of human development, the contribution of farming and flames to human development can definitely be ranked first."

"The last point, Yanhuang reads it more smoothly than Huang Yan."

After hearing this, Huang Di thought about it for a long time.

"Except for the last point, I think what you said is right, I accept it!"

"However, Shunkou, or Huang Yan's descendants Shunkou!"

Everyone: fine!As long as you are happy.
