Prehistoric Yuan Fu Lu

() Twelve days later, according to Feng Ye's Yuan Chen calendar, it is an auspicious time for marriage.And because today's marriage system is much simpler than later, it is not so cumbersome to have a fixed date, three books and six rituals.As long as the two families agree, there will be no problem.

And I heard that he was born with gods, what kind of parental talk is there, if you really want to say it is heaven and earth.So there is also one less effort to make a betrothal gift.Everything can be done directly at Shennong's house.

However, when Shennong traveled to the human race and spread the agricultural way with Tingxu, he knew a lot of people. When he heard that Shennong was going to get married, he naturally sent people over.

Even the human tribes controlled by the Wumen sent people here, and one of them was Na Jinde Qianlong, who was also a friend of Shennong and Tingxu.

Today is the day of Shennong's great joy, and Shennong's face is naturally full of glory.But when Shennong was welcoming the guests, someone suddenly reported that there was an old woman outside who wanted to come in to ask for a meal, and she was very happy.

When Shennong heard the words, he didn't think much, so he asked someone to bring some food to the old woman.

However, after a while, the tribe came in again and said: "Young leader, the woman said that the food given by the young leader is too little, and it is not enough to eat. She also said that if you don't let him eat enough, you will not be married, and you will be disturbed." Your wedding feast."

Shaodian at the side heard it, and his expression was not hesitant, someone came to make trouble for his son's wedding? "But the tribe didn't give enough? Just give him a little more, and let me go and see for myself."

After a while, Shennong saw Shaodian come in with an embarrassed expression.

"What happened to father? But the tribe didn't give enough?"

"Don't mention it, I really messed with Diao Fu. There is not enough food from the tribe, even if the food of the whole tribe is added up, it is not enough for her."

"How much does she want?"

"Snacks as heavy as the five mountains, tea as much as the four seas, and cloth that can cover the sky."

Shen Nong froze for a moment, and frowned. This condition was clearly making things difficult.Then he looked at Feng Ye who was sitting quietly, "Teacher, what do you think?"

"Being a teacher is just a wedding witness, and you need to deal with this matter." Feng Ye responded, thinking about it.This statement is quite familiar, is it the so-called three media and six certificates?However, it was still early.Moreover, those who dare to say this are not mortals. Who is it that makes things difficult for Shennong?

Feng Ye picked up a cup of tea, and thought of a name, could it be this one?This guy shouldn't be so busy.

"Father, you send someone to invite the old woman in. The child has to see for himself."

After a while, a clansman walked over with the help of a trembling old woman.Just look at the old woman in ragged clothes and gray hair, tremblingly said to Shen Nong, "Shen Nong, I know that you have high morals and high prestige, and spreading agricultural ways has made the human race prosperous. Could it be that the old woman has such a small request?" Not satisfied either?"

"What does the old lady want?" Although Shen Nong had already heard about it, he still wanted to confirm it.

"The old man's request is very simple, look at the clothes on the old man, how torn it is, I want to find some fabrics to mend it."

"This is simple." Hearing this, Shen Nong breathed a sigh of relief, and asked someone to fetch the things.

"Wait a minute, Laoshen's clothes are not so easy to mend, and it is estimated that the cloth that covers the sky is the best."

Shennong and Shaodian looked at each other after hearing the words.It really is not easy to deal with.

However, the woman hadn't finished saying "Shen Nong, your wedding is so grand, and there are more than a dozen people from tribes around. I am hungry now, so please bring some food. I don't have a lot of food. , as heavy as the Five Sacred Mountains, and as much tea as the Four Seas."

Shen Nong frowned, thought for a long time, and had an idea in his mind.Suddenly said: "This request is not too much."

"Qui'er!" Shaodian on the side was anxious, at this time guests from other tribes were also there.If it can't be done, it will become a laughing stock. How can you be the co-lord of the human race after losing your prestige?

Shen Nong waved his hand: "Old man, if you want me to prepare these things, there must be a specific size. Please ask the old man to weigh the weight of the five mountains. How much water is there in the four seas? Let the old man measure it. Then For the cloth that covers the sky, please ask the old man to measure how wide the sky is."

After being swayed by Shennong, the old woman's face froze, and then she said, "It's okay, but I don't have a long body, where are those things to measure? I have heard the name of Shennong's genius for a long time, and this tribe seems to be rich. It's better to give the old man an idea, how to measure these."

"This..." Shennong frowned for a while. If he wanted to measure cloth, it would be fine for Nuwa to leave rulers. As for how to measure the four seas and five mountains?

Feng Ye smiled and took a sip of the fragrant tea, watching the farce.It seems that this is really three media and six certificates.

At this time, Ting Zi lifted the curtain and walked out of the inner room with the support of two young girls.

"Why did you come out?" Shennong stepped forward to support him and asked.

"The concubine heard about this from behind, so she naturally wanted to come out to share her husband's worries."

Ting Zi saluted the old woman: "I have also heard the old woman's words when I was inside. It's just that we can find these measuring things for the old man. However, the measuring thing has to be done by the old man himself. It’s done, I wonder if it’s possible?”

"It should be so." The old woman nodded and said,

Listening to what the old woman said, he took out three things: "Since the old man said that there is a lack of real objects to measure, the concubine's body is convenient for you."

Tingxu took out the first thing: "The name of this thing 'scale' was created by my husband a few days ago, and it has not been passed on to the human race. This thing can be measured, and the elderly can use it to weigh the five mountains." After finishing speaking, Tingxu looked at it Xiang Shennong: "Please don't blame my husband, I am using my husband's things without authorization."

"Where is it, husband and wife are one body, how can we divide you and me." Shennong settled in his mind, the so-called "scale" was not invented by himself, but just listened to to save some face for himself and earn some prestige for himself.

Afterwards, Ting Xi took out the second thing: "The name of this thing is 'Dou', which is what ordinary people carry rice noodles. From my own point of view, it can also be used to measure the size of objects. Please use this to measure the world. How many buckets are there. I would like to discuss with my husband and bring tea corresponding to the number of buckets."

Then, Tingxu took out the last thing: "The name of this thing 'rudder' was passed down by the Wa Huang family at the beginning. It can measure the universe, and the length of things is the only thing. I also need to trouble the old man to measure how wide the sky is. long."

Looking at the three pieces of evidence, the old woman suddenly smiled, "What a pair of talented men and women, what a pair of unparalleled people, it's not bad for a husband and wife to be of the same heart. Well, I won't embarrass you anymore." After finishing speaking, the old woman The man took out two clothes: "These two things are the congratulatory gift from the old man to you."

At this moment, Feng Ye got up and looked at the clothes, and it turned out to be two wedding dresses: "Since Your Excellency is presenting you with such a great gift, why not have a cup of tea here, and do me a favor by the way."

"What's busy?" the old woman asked.

"This wedding dress is cumbersome to wear. Can you invite the old man to dress Tingxu himself? And I want you to comb Tingxu's hair and bless you."

"You don't dislike the old man's appearance?"

"Don't look at your appearance like this. When you were young, you were absolutely magnificent. And look at your full seal and ruddy complexion, which are also signs of good fortune. You must be a person with endless descendants." If it is the one in my heart, It is definitely her descendants, the entire human race is her descendants.

"In this case, the old man will do it for me." The old woman nodded and said

……

Shen Nong watched the old woman follow Ting Xi into the inner room, and couldn't help saying to Feng Ye: "Teacher, this matter—"

Feng Ye waved his hand, "Don't talk too much, this matter is also good for you, just go in and change your clothes." After speaking, Feng Ye smiled and received the guests on behalf of Shennong and directed the audience.

……

In the inner room, the old woman placed a golden mirror on the table as a dressing thing.Facing the golden mirror, help Tingxu put on the wedding dress and let her hair loose.Then, he took out a golden comb to help Tingxu comb his hair.While combing, he kept chanting:

After combing to the end, the husband and wife are in harmony and everything is prosperous

Two combs to the end, the white head and eyebrows are inseparable

Comb three times to the end, children and grandchildren run everywhere

As the old woman helped Ting He comb her hair, a stream of five-color light continuously spread from the golden comb to Ting He's hair.

Blessed by good luck, Ting Xi is also a person of cultivation, so he naturally understands what is going on. Sure enough, this old woman is not a mortal.Ting Zi sincerely said to the old woman, "Thank you for your blessing."

"If it's there, I'm here to disturb you, just don't think it's bad luck for me. This golden mirror and golden comb is my dowry." Then, the old woman took out a pair of golden scissors and "give this as well." you."

After finishing speaking, the old woman helped the listener: "The auspicious time is coming, we should go out earlier."

……

Everything that followed was smooth sailing. On the Tiandi table were a steelyard, a ruler, and a bucket, as well as three gifts from the old lady: a golden mirror, a golden comb, and golden scissors.

"One Worship"

"Second Worship Hall"

"Husband and wife worship each other and send them to the bridal chamber"

Needless to say, these tricks were naturally created by Feng Ye.Seeing Shen Nong and Ting Xi leading each other into the bridal chamber, Feng Ye's mind separated, turned into a cloud, and rushed up into the sky, just in time to see the old woman here.

"Your Majesty is really free." Feng Ye said spiritually.

"You also need the cooperation of fellow daoists, don't you?" The old woman suddenly uttered a crisp voice, took out a red hydrangea and held it in her hand, and restored her original appearance. Besides the Holy Mother and Nuwa Empress, who else is there?

"Isn't the empress in the Bajing Palace? The Taiqing sage didn't stop you, and even asked you to send an avatar to take down the red hydrangea."

"Although there was a stalemate with that fellow Taiqing, that fellow was still in love all night. Knowing that this palace is in charge of marriage and marriage, he changed his default to come here as an incarnation of this palace. It can be regarded as compensation for Shennong who was robbed a few days ago .”

Feng Ye looked at the red hydrangea in Nuwa's hand and couldn't help but asked, "I don't know how the marriage of Shennong is in charge of the empress? Can I ask the empress to give a piece of red thread to help them—"

Nu Wa gave Feng Ye a look, "You don't need to tell me about it? How do you think those two wedding dresses came from? They were spun by me with the red rope of marriage fate. From now on, the wedding dresses will also belong to the two of them." validated."

"And this time, I saw the scale, the bucket, and the ruler. They can measure the universe, and it is very helpful for the human race to divide the weight, how much, and the length. Let Shennong's wedding help publicize one or two, and in the future, Shennong Becoming the co-lord of the human race is also very beneficial." Nuwa was thinking.

Bookworm's tea room:

This allusion of the three media and six certificates, I vaguely remember seeing it from a children's version of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" when I was a child.

I looked through it today, but I couldn't find it. I don't know where I put it when I moved.So I searched the Internet for a long time, and found three kinds of explanations.After thinking about it for a long time, I re-edited it myself based on those statements.
