The ancient records of the invention of artificial fire by Sui Renshi. Suiren was the first person in legend to invent artificial fire, which was recorded in ancient books of pre-Qin dynasty. Hello, Wuhua Temple, The Dead Body says: A man looks up at the stars and looks down at five trees as a fire.
it is said in the "Notes on the Picked-up" that the famous state-owned trees in the Ming Dynasty are embarrassing. Later, there were saints who swam to their country. Birds pecked at trees and burst into flames. The saints were impressed. Because they used twigs to drill fire, they were nicknamed Suiren.
The Ancient History Textual Research says: At the beginning of ancient times, people sucked dew, ate grass and fruits, lived in the mountains, ate birds and animals, clothed their feathers, and ate fish, turtles and clams near the water, without cremation, which was harmful to the stomach. In order to make a saint come out, to make a king of fire, to make a drill to make a fire, to teach people to cook food, to cast gold as a blade, to make people happy, and to make a fool of people on the day.
"Three Graves" says: Suiren teaches people to eat with guns, drill wood for fire, have a platform for preaching, and have a policy of tying ropes.
Hanshu also recorded that people should be taught to prepare food, cultivate people's interests, and avoid odor and poison. Mr. Shang Binghe, a famous scholar in the late Qing Dynasty, said: Fire exists from nothing, and its invention is very difficult. The emperor felt that the forest burned himself, and he knew that the wood hid the fire. I didn't know that after several attacks and trials, I got it by drilling the wood. His work has entered the nest again, and he took it as the emperor's number. It can be seen that the blame at that time was sacred and the profit was deep. He also said: or that cremation and eating began in Xi, so he thought it was a number. Do you know that the man invented fire, but his wisdom still didn't know how to eat it? The gunner wraps the meat and burns it, and burns its hair to make it familiar. In cooked food, Suiren not only invented artificial lighting, but also pioneered cooked food.
Shang Binghe also said in the Textual Research on Social Customs and Things in Past Dynasties: From now on, before there was a fire, all meat was eaten raw, which was harmful to people and died. I don't know what it was, and I don't know the taste. When you get cooked food, the smell of meat is suddenly fragrant, the indifference of vegetation is suddenly sweet and crisp, the ice of water can be drunk, and the cold can be warm. Burn firewood at night to protect tigers and leopards, and it will be later. When husband preached on stage and broadcast was used, the feeling of all the people was the crudest method. When you go to Fuxi, Fuxi is more beautiful. It was created by a man, no doubt. Mr. Shang Binghe thinks that why Dai is glad is such a great achievement. If there is fire, it can be metallurgically used as a blade and other tools. Before fire, everything was made of stone, which is called the Stone Age.
Taiping Yu Lan (Volume 869) quotes Notes on the Year of the Prince: Shen Mi went to Wan Li, the capital of the country, and he was ignorant of the four seasons and the day and night. If a man does not die, he will ascend to heaven if he is tired of the world. State-owned wahoo, the famous wood, is full of twists and turns, and the clouds are in the middle. If the branches are broken and drilled, the fire will go out. Later saints became smelly and swam outside the sun and the moon to save everything with food; Even south. Look at this tree, if there are birds, peck at the tree with your mouth and burst into flames. The sage was so impressed that he took twigs to drill fire, so he was named Suiren. The same book volume 78 quotes the cloud of "Li Gu Wen Jia": Sui people began to drill wood to make fire, so they were Sui people. There is also a legend that Suiren took the fire of jujube and apricot in summer.
