Yu's treatment of soil and water is also wrong. The north of Beihai is tens of millions of miles away from Jizhou, and its country name is the end of the north, so I don't know the limit of international travel. There is no wind, no rain, no frost, no dew, no birds, no animals, no insects, no fish, no plants and the like. All sides are flat, which is consistent with Zhouyi ③. There are mountains in the countryside, which are famous for their pot collars and look like donkeys. There is a mouth at the top, which looks like a ring (5) and is called Zixue. Water gushed out and called God. It smells worse than green pepper and tastes worse than fermented grains. One source is divided into four streams and injected into the foot of the mountain. Manage a country, and you will die.
Harmony in the countryside leads to death. Human nature is gentle and obedient, without competition; Heart cartilage is weak, neither arrogant nor jealous; Pet-name ruby, young and old friends don't you don't minister; Mixed sex, not hiring; Live by water, do not plow or plant; The soil temperature is suitable, and it is not woven or clothed; You won't get sick if you die in a hundred years. It has many people, some happy, some old and some sad. Its vulgar and good voice, carrying each other, overlapping rumors attending, all day long. Hunger drinks God, while struggle makes peace. If you are too drunk, you will wake up in ten days. Bathe the gods, the skin color is fat, and the fragrance will rest after ten days.
Zhou Muwang traveled north to other countries and forgot to come back after three years. I opposed Zhou Shi and admired his country, but I lost myself. If you don't eat wine and meat, you won't be called a Royal Guards, and it will last for months.
When Guan, Yuan and Yuan arrived at Liaokou, they all lived there. After several exhortations, Peng Ji remonstrated: "Your country has a vast territory, a large number of people, beautiful mountains and rivers, rich culture, rich etiquette and righteousness, beautiful clothes, a full court of demons and a loyal and virtuous dynasty." Arrogance dies in a million dollars. If you think princes are obedient, you will admire them, give up Qi and join Yi Rong. How can I listen to Guan Zhong's guidance? Huan Gong stopped and told Guan Zhong what Peng Ji had said. Zhong Yue said: "This is beyond the reach of friends. I am afraid of the unknowability of that country. Is the wealth of Qi State love? Do you care what your friends say? "
