Hello, everyone, I am "Kun Yu Wan Guo Quan Tu", born in 1602, my father is Italian Catholic monk Matteo Ricci, and my mother is Li Zhizao, a scientist during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. Although both of them are men, I have to say that I am indeed a mixture of Chinese and Western. I am glad you came to listen to my story.
"Kun Yu Wan Guo Quan Tu"
I have a small reputation, and I can definitely mix a big V according to current standards. People who know more about the history of the Ming and Qing Dynasties generally know me. I am China's first map of the world with complete lines of latitude and longitude, bringing China a new world of great geographic discovery and the dawn of modernization. After I was born, I was not very popular in China, but after I went to sea, I became famous, especially the Japanese are like a treasure, and I have made many brothers, sons, and grandchildren. By now, I have become a big man in the history of ancient Chinese science and technology, an honor, I don't like to see ordinary people. If you have something to call me, please go to Nanjing Museum and report my name to the guardian.
I am a map of the world. Naturally, there will be many countries on my body. Most people pay attention to Da Ming, Japan, and Europe. But I tell you, I am a funny person, oh no, funny pictures. There are many wonderful countries in me that I can't believe it, but they do exist. This is the story I want to tell you today.
女国
You must have heard the story of the country of daughters. The white and beautiful Tang Sanzang fell into the hands of the overbearing president's daughter country king on the way to learn from the West. The king wanted to force the marriage to Sanzang and do something wrong, but Sanzang had his own heart and remained unmoved, and had four major disciples escorting him, and finally escaped.
女國位
The daughter country is in the West. This is true, because I have a woman country marked on my body. Although the country of women is not as good as the country of daughters, the meaning is the same. So where is the daughter country? As you see, I know that it is between the sea and the North High Sea, which is today's Caspian Sea and the Black Sea. This daughter country is probably near Georgia in West Asia, and it can still match the daughter country in the West in the Journey to the West. Besides, there are Amazon women warriors in the western world. You can't call me nonsense.
To this day, although Georgia’s beauties are still graceful and glamorous, the daughter country that countless men are fascinated by is obviously gone. Why? In the "Shan Hai Jing", there is a mention of the daughter country, and its description is similar to that in the Journey to the West. However, according to my interpretation, "There was a country in the past, and there were men, but if you give birth to more men, you will kill it. It was merged by a man and kept its name in vain.” This daughter country does not give birth to a man, but kills a boy when she gives birth, which is the same as some foolish people who drown baby girls. How can a man tolerate such inequality between men and women? Therefore, the country is also destroyed.
Then what is the daughter country like? My brothers in Japan have several sons. They are usually called "The Picture of the People of the World", all of which are based on the "Kunyu World of the World". The thinking of the Japanese is bizarre and unpredictable. They know the country of daughters. For example, these pictures have the specific image of the country of daughters.

Near the daughter country, there is another one. It's just that there is no more explanation on me. Speaking of this Ichimoku country, I couldn't help but remind me of the cyclops in the Western magical world. In China, the legend of Ichimoku can be found in the "Shanhaijing", which says "Ichimoku is in the east, and Ichimoku lives in its face". Of course, it is probably the Japanese who have actually seen Ichimoku.

It can be seen from the picture that the people of Yimu have a single eye on the center of their forehead, half-shaved nomadic hair style, one hand with a bow and one hand Shangjian turned out to be a fighting nation.
dwarf country
Dwarf country location
Ichimoku country polar north sea, west of Europa, there is a dwarf country. In the western magical world, dwarves are excellent craftsmen who are good at making; in the western fairy tale world, dwarves are good friends who guard Snow White; in the Eastern "Shan Hai Jing", it is said, "There are villains, and they are called Jiao Tong Country" , These are enough to show that I am an authentic Chinese and Western mixed blood.
said in the picture, "The men and women of the Dwarf Kingdom have more than a foot. They give birth to children at five years old and are eight years old. They are often eaten by stork harriers and live in burrows to avoid them. Every summer comes out in March and destroys its eggs. Riding on sheep.” It can be seen that the dwarves are not as powerful as storks, but they are smarter, knowing to take out the eggs of birds to maintain ecological balance.
In the Qing dynasty novel "Jing Hua Yuan", there is also a small country called "Jing Ren Guo". It is said that Jing Ren Guo is less than one foot in length and is the most unsympathetic, and what he says is everywhere. in contrast. Because they are afraid of being harmed by big birds, both young and old are in groups, holding weapons in their hands to defend themselves. It can be seen that compared with the Western dwarf who lives in Ironforge, who has a big beard, holds a big hammer, and has incomparable courage, like a small tank, the fighting power of the Eastern dwarf is seriously insufficient.
小人国像
The Japanese are naturally familiar with the Dwarf Country. After all, they have been called the "Wai Country" before. In their picture, the Dwarf Country has become a small In the country, a bird is hanging high above the head, eager to rush, and two dwarves are supporting and galloping, vividly, really good painter.
长人国
If there is a dwarf country, there will naturally be a longman country. In the West, elders should be called giants. They are creatures whose nature is not bad, but their brains are not enough. Legend has it that the kingdom of giants is by the sea, and in order to prevent humans from reaching there, the giants built white mountains. A giant named Talang broke his neck and died when he was carrying a stone. His body later merged with the earth, his head became the mountain Dotalang, and the stone he carried became the mountain Kuveleg With Kubin, the broken neck forms the Tarang Neck Pass.

The Oriental Book of Mountains and Seas says, “Outside the East China Sea, in the great wilderness, there are mountains with names called Dayan, and the sun and the moon. There are waves. Those in the valleys and mountains have a country of grown-ups.” In "Jing Hua Yuan", the country of grown-ups is even more magical. It is said that all the people of the country have clouds and fog to protect their feet. When you are upright, colorful clouds will appear under your feet, and if you want to be treacherous, you will see black clouds under your feet, which can be called a character appraiser.
In my picture, the country of Changren "is not long enough for its people, and men and women are decorated with various pictures." The location is in Argentina, South America. It's just that when I talk about Argentina now, the first thing I think of is Messi and Maradona. They seem to be far behind the older ones.

Japanese with outstanding painting skills will naturally not let go of this good opportunity for brain supplement. In the writings of the Japanese, the Jangrenuo is sometimes a tall and thin man, while the grown-up is a burly man.
大人国像
鬼国
There is no shortage of legends of ghosts and sprites in the East and the West. The common feature is that they come out at night and come out of the soul. . However, compared with the terrifying images of ghosts in the West, there are good ghosts and colorful ghosts in the East. For example, Ning Caichen met Nie Xiaoqian, and fell in love at first sight, Wushan Yunyu, really envied others, really dying under the peony flower, and being a ghost.
鬼国
"Shan Hai Jing" said, "The ghost country is in the north of the two negative corpses, and it is for the sake of people. One eye. One said that the two bears the god in the east, and the snake body for the things and people." In my body, the ghost country is located on the northern coast of Siberia, a barren land. It is said that "the man wanders at night and hides during the day, and he wears deer skins and clothes, his ears, eyes and nose are the same as people, and his mouth is on top. He eats deer and snakes." Regardless of the description, this is really fierce and evil. , Isn't it the legendary hell?
Postscript
In addition to the above five foreign countries, There are other strange tribes painted on my body, such as human ox feet, ox-hoof Turks that burn ice and drink water; my son hides his parents in his abdomen, and the one who can’t bear to abandon them is in Da; leaping three feet, amphibious area. Sleeping sound; burrowing in the ground, bird wool knitting clothes, delicious human flesh, but bessier who eats men but not women. Except for these tribes that look like humans and not humans, there are also various birds and beasts, sacred mountains and strange waters. If you are interested, you can do your own research.
When it is necessary to explain, there are four surviving sons of the "Kunyu World Atlas" family. Although I am a funny picture, because I live alone in Nanjing Museum, there has been no network cable, so I can't access the Internet. I have a younger sister who lives in the Liaoning Provincial Museum. She is called "Liang Yi Xuan Lan Tu". She is also very miserable. The village has never been connected to the Internet, so you can't find the footprints of our brothers on the Internet.
Therefore, the one who appeared on my behalf today is actually my brother from Kyoto University in Japan. He is a big V on the Internet and has the best appearance. Generally you see him. The last one lives in the library of the University of Minnesota in the United States. Although he is a bit darker, he loves to make friends and is stinky. If you have a fast internet connection, you can always go to the Library of Congress website to invite him to your computer and enjoy it slowly.
Okay, this is the end of my story today. Thank you my friend Map Book for telling me this story. Remember, I am a talking map.
