Hehe, the journey of Sanqin Soul to Baoji, the birthplace of Qin Zhou in Baoji.

Baoji City, Shaanxi Province is located at the western end of Guanzhong Plain, with Qinling Mountains in the south and Plateau in the north. The Weihe River passes through the city and is regarded as the gateway to the western part of Guanzhong. Now it is the intersection of Longhai and baoji-chengdu railway.

Baoji is one of the important birthplaces of ancient civilization in the Yellow River valley of China. Legend has it that Yan Di Shennong was born here. At the end of Shang Dynasty, Zhou people were sealed in Qishan, and Baoji was the area where Zhou people lived. Baoji was the center of political activities of Qin people during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Because there is Chencang Mountain in the county, Chencang County was located here in Qin Dynasty, and the ruins of the ancient city of Chencang in Qin still exist. Baoji's name appeared in the Tang Dynasty. "Old Tang Book" contains: "In the second year of Zhide (757), Chencang was changed to Baoji, hence the name." Since then, the name of Baoji has been used to this day. The legend of Baoji is recorded in books such as Biography and Extended Records. "Biography of Leigh" said: "In Qin Mugong, Chencang people dig things. If a sheep is not a sheep, if a pig is not a pig, it will be presented to a worshiper and meet two boys. They said,' This is a story. They often eat people's brains in the fields If they want to kill them, they will put cypress trees on their heads. He said:' The two boys are named Baoji, the male is king and the female is overlord.' Chencang people abandoned it, chased two boys, turned into pheasants and flew into the forest. Chen Cang sued Mu Gong, sent his disciples to hunt, got his daughter, turned it into stone, and placed it between Wei and Wei. "When Qin Wengong was in Chencang ancient city, there was a chicken worship platform (commonly known as cockfighting platform) dedicated to stone chickens.

Known as the "throat of Sichuan, Gansu and Shaanxi", the sanitation in Baoji Mountain Area has always been a battleground for military strategists. The third pass of Nanda Sanling in Baoji County is a famous ancient pass, which is the throat between Sichuan and Shaanxi, and the terrain is dangerous. The tunnel through Sanguan was called Chencang Road in ancient times. Now Sichuan-Shaanxi Highway and baoji-chengdu railway pass through here. During the period of Chu-Han struggle, Liu Bang adopted Han Xin's plan, "build a plank road in the open, and sneak in", and occupied Guanzhong in one fell swoop. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang went out of Qishan six times and led troops through this place. In the first year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 13 1), Song generals Wu Jun and Wu Lin were defeated here, and the head coach Jin Wushu was only exempted.

Baoji is one of the important birthplaces of ancient culture in the Yellow River Basin. According to archaeological excavations, about six or seven thousand years ago, there were traces of human activities here, such as Jiangbao, Liujiaya, Wangjiayan, Fu Lin Fort, Gaojiaping and Beishouling. When the Neolithic sites were discovered, the accumulation of lower culture was earlier than that of Yangshao culture. Yu Jia Village, 5 kilometers south of Baoji, is said to be the birthplace of Shennong in Yan Di. Later generations built a Shennong Temple as a memorial. Shennong is the legendary ancestor of agriculture and medicine. Yan Di tribe is a famous big tribe in the middle reaches of the Yellow River in the era of the Yellow Emperor. Yan Di tribe and Huangdi tribe allied with Chiyou tribe in the south and defeated Chiyou tribe. Later, the Huangdi tribe unified the tribes in the Central Plains, formed a big tribal alliance dominated by the Yanhuang tribe, and developed into the earliest prototype of the Chinese nation. Therefore, China people usually call themselves "descendants of the Chinese people".

Baoji is more famous as the birthplace of Zhou and Qin. At the end of Shang Dynasty, Zhou people were sealed in Qi, and today Baoji is the activity center of Zhou people. Zhou people established the "Zhou" country, and established its capital in Joo Won , south of Qishan. They called the city of Joo Won  "Jing" or "Jingyi", which means big, and later became a special name of the capital of China. Zhou people gathered their troops here and prepared to destroy the business, so they developed eastward, moved the capital to Fengyi and destroyed the business.

The earliest activities of Qin people were in Tianshui and Qingshui, Gansu. In 770 BC, Qin Xianggong escorted Zhou Ping and Dong Wang to move, and they were sealed in Qi. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Baoji has always been the activity center of Qin people. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Yongcheng and Qin Dou, located in Fengxiang, not far northeast of Baoji City, went from Qin Degong to Gong Xian for nearly 300 years. Qin Xiangong moved its capital to Liyang in the second year (before 383 years), and after Xiao Gong moved its capital to Xianyang in the twelfth year (before 350 years), Yongcheng's status did not decline. Qin people's ancestral temple sacrifices are still held in Yongcheng, and Qin people have to come here to inform the ancestral temple of any major events. In the Qin Dynasty, Yongcheng always occupied an important position.
