Dayu became the first ruler of Shenzhou in Chixian County by virtue of his credit for water control and his reputation for benefiting the people, and he created the first centralized government in the history of our country-the Xia Dynasty. However, in the process of treating the water, Dayu also lay down a root cause-due to years of sleeping outside the restaurant, chopping mountains and blocking water, and often soaked in water, he suffered from rheumatic pain. Whenever it rains, or in a place with heavy moisture and mist, the pain is unbearable and it is inconvenient to walk.
This year, Dayu led tens of thousands of horses to Chang'anli, west of Wukang City, Deqing, Zhejiang Province, to deal with floods. However, halfway through the project, Dayu suffered from rheumatism, and his whole body was in pain. Seeing that the rainy season is approaching, if the dikes, dams and ditches cannot be repaired in time, flooding is likely to occur. Dayu, who was lying on the bed unable to get up, was anxious, but he was helpless.
The people around him looked in their eyes and were anxious. They invited many doctors to see Dayu. They tried one type of herbal medicine, and they were taken internally and externally. After several days of tossing, Dayu’s illness still did not have the slightest pain. ease.
On this day, a young man more than two feet tall came outside Dayu's door, holding a magical instrument named "Feng" in his hand. This person is Dayu's right-hand man, Xiao Qi, who is here to control the waters.
The wise and brave Xiaoqi clan was the leader of the tribe and won the support of the tribe. He was touched by the selfless spirit of Da Yu, and led the tribe people to follow Da Yu to dig out the canals and dredge the river.
Dayu looked at the tall Xiao Qi, and asked in confusion: "You are born with supernatural powers. It's not a matter of opening mountains and waters, but I don't know if you still know how to treat diseases?"
Xiao Qi replied: "My lord, I have lived at the confluence of Tiaoxi, Yingxi, and Fuxi for a long time. The climate here is humid and many people suffer from rheumatism. After some observations, I found that it is difficult to eradicate rheumatism. , But if you work hard on the living environment, you can alleviate the pain."
With that said, Mr. Qi Xiaoqi placed a patterned sheepskin in front of Dayu. This is a construction drawing of a house. The house is built with bamboo and wood, with thatch as the roof. The biggest feature is that the lower part of the house is overhead. It is called dry lap, which can isolate wet ground, keep quiet and ventilate, and prevent rain and beasts.
Under the leadership of Xiao Qishi, a large dry fence was quickly built. Dayu moved in and lived there for a while, and his rheumatism symptoms really improved, but on windy and rainy days, his limbs and joints were still aching.
It seems that dry diaphragms are not enough. The Xiaoqi family thought of another way. He sent his fourth brother Xianggong with 18 strong and strong men to go to the high mountains of Tianquan Mountain and Wangmu Mountain to choose to cut down the giant ancient camphors, red pine, Cangbai and Qingfeng that were surrounded by several people. Wait for the sacred wood, sawn it into sections, lift it down the mountain, and transport it back by water.
The Xiaoqi clan gathered the skilled craftsmen in the tribe to saw the wood into sheets day and night, and then join the boards piece by piece, and lay them in the dry wall of Dayu's residence, effectively blocking the invasion of moisture. The moisture absorption and evaporation characteristics of camphor wood floor contains a special aromatic tincture that exudes a healthy, calming and refreshing aroma. Dayu’s rheumatism pain was immediately relieved to a large extent. That night, Dayu was comfortable and comfortable. After a good night's sleep, I also dreamed of gray-haired parents and wife's family...
Local tribesmen found that wood flooring has so many magical benefits, and they all followed suit. They also laid dry wooden floors in their own dry fence. The previous muddy ground was more tidy, clean and beautiful. At the same time, it also effectively resisted the attack of damp water vapor.
This is how the earliest original floor in China was born.
The times have changed drastically. The craftsman who laid wooden floors for King Dayu 4,000 years ago was named Guo Zhao. To commemorate this skillful craftsman, the place where his descendants have lived for generations has also used his name, namely Guo Zhao Village. Coincidentally, in Chang'an, where Dayu once lived, there now happens to be an enterprise, its name is "Shui Mo Jiangnan", which is engaged in the production of wood flooring, the wisdom and crystallization of the people of the ancient country. Perhaps this is a period of eternal karma destined by the sky.
