Travel Notes to Various Countries

Dayu designated the world as Xia, cast nine tripods, and divided the world into nine states: Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, and Yongzhou. A little mud-legged kid from a small town in Jingzhou actually dreamed of traveling all over the world, and he dreamed of reading all the books of sages in the world to prove that the saints' principles were not entirely true.
