Jingwei fills the sea, Hou Yi shoots at the sun, and he dances and dies. Kuafu, the goddess of mending the sky, the goddess of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon and the * * * workers are all angry and can't move Zhoushan Jingwei to fill the sea. This is a story described in The Classic of Mountains and Seas. It is about a bird named Jingwei who tried to fill the sea in ancient China. Shan Hai Jing describes a bird. Its name is Jingwei. Jingwei is Emperor Yan's favorite daughter. One day, she went to the East China Sea to play, but suddenly a storm hit and she died. The girl became a bird, and her name was "Jingwei Bird". Jingwei bird went to Xishan to get stones and branches, and threw them into the sea again and again, trying to fill up the East China Sea. Tao Yuanming, a poet in the Jin Dynasty, wrote a poem: "Jingwei holds Xiao Mu and will fill the sea." Later, people often used the idiom "jingwei fills the sea" to mean to fight tirelessly to the end according to the established goals. Ten suns appeared in the sky before the shooting day of Houyi. One day, ten suns thought it would be interesting if they traveled around the sky together. Then, at dawn, ten suns climbed into the car together and embarked on a journey across the sky. As a result, people and everything on earth will suffer. Ten suns are like ten fireballs, and their heat scorches the earth. The forest caught fire and burned to ashes, killing many animals. Those animals that didn't die in the fire wandered around the crowd, frantically looking for food. The river dried up and so did the sea. When all the fish died, the monsters in the water climbed ashore to steal food. Many people and animals died of thirst. Crops and orchards withered, and food for people and animals was cut off. At this time, there was a handsome young hero named Hou Yi. He is an archer, and his archery is superb. Seeing that people are living in misery, he decided to help people get rid of misery and shoot out nine redundant suns. So Hou Yi climbed ninety-nine mountains, crossed ninety-nine rivers, crossed ninety-nine canyons and came to the East China Sea. He climbed a mountain, at the foot of which was the vast sea. Hou Yi opened a crossbow with a force of ten thousand Jin, took a sharp arrow with a weight of one thousand Jin, aimed it at the burning sun in the sky, and shot it out with a swish. The first sun was shot down. Hou Yi opened his crossbow again, took a sharp arrow, and shot it with a buzz, shooting down two suns at the same time. Now, there are seven suns in the sky staring at their red eyes. Hou Yi felt that these suns were still very hot and shot the third arrow violently. This arrow hit four suns. The other suns trembled with fear and kept spinning. In this way, Hou Yi shot an arrow at the sun one by one, killing nine suns. The nine suns with arrows can't survive, and they die one by one. Their feathers fell to the ground, and their light and heat disappeared one after another. The earth is getting darker and darker until at last there is only a ray of sunshine left. Houyi shot at the sun to save the world, and his merits were boundless. He was named a heavenly general by the Emperor of Heaven. Later, he married the fairy Chang 'e and lived a happy life. Xingtian dancer Xingtian is a headless giant mentioned in Shan Hai Jing. He was originally a subordinate of Emperor Yan. After Emperor Yan was defeated by the Yellow Emperor in the Battle of Hanquan, Xingtian followed Emperor Yan to settle in the south. At that time, Chiyou took revenge, but was razed to the ground by the Yellow Emperor, so he was beheaded. In a rage, Xingtian killed him outside the Nantianmen in Zhongtian with an axe in his hand, and named him to single out the Yellow Emperor. Finally, Xingtian was defeated and beheaded by the Yellow Emperor. Xingtian, who has no head, did not die, but stood up again, taking the two nipples on his chest as eyes and the navel as his mouth; Hold a shield in your left hand and an axe in your right. Because he has no head, he can only fight the invisible enemy forever, forever. There is a saying in Tao Yuanming's "Reading the Classic of Mountains and Seas": "Jingwei holds the micro-wood and will fill the sea. Xingtian waved a shield axe, and a resolute battle continued. The same thing has no class, no regrets. The past that has just been set in my heart, good days can wait! " To praise the spirit of xingtian.
Kuafu in Kuafu's Chasing the Sun is a giant in ancient myths and legends. He is a descendant of Hou Di, a ghost, and lives in the Tianshan Mountains in Chengdu, the Great Northern Wilderness. He has two yellow snakes in his ear and two yellow snakes in his hand, chasing the sun. When he arrived in Yugu, the sun was about to set, and he felt thirsty, so he went to drink water from the Yellow River and Weihe River. After he drained the river, his thirst still didn't stop. He wanted to drink the water from the Great Lakes in the north, but he died of thirst before he got there. Kuafu threw away his walking stick when he died, and it suddenly turned into a peach grove full of fresh fruits to quench his thirst for those who later pursued the light.
According to the legend of the goddess of mending heaven, Pangu created the world, and Nu Wa made people out of yellow mud. The sun, the moon and the stars perform their duties, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Later, * * * workers competed with Zhuan Xu for the throne, but they were at a loss, touching the mountain that failed, leading to the collapse of Tianzhu, subsidence, abandonment of the four poles, division of Kyushu, dumping in the northwest, subsidence in the southeast, flooding, spread of mountain fires and displacement of the people.
Seeing that her people were caught in a great disaster, Nu Wa was very worried and determined to make the stone into heaven. So she traveled all over the world and Qian Shan, and finally chose Tiantai Mountain, a fairy mountain on the sea outside the East China Sea. Tiantai Mountain is one of the five fairy mountains in the East China Sea. Wuxian Mountain was hunched by Aos God to prevent it from sinking into the bottom of the sea. Why did Nu Wa choose Tiantai Mountain? Because only Tiantai Mountain produces five-color soil for refining stone, it is an excellent place for refining Tianshi stone.
So, Nu Wa piled huge stones on the top of Tiantai Mountain as a furnace, using five-color soil as the material and borrowing the fire of the sun god. It took nine days in Kuya to forge 365,065,438+0 colorful boulders. Then he spent nine days in Kuya and repaired it with 36,500 colored stones. The remaining piece was left at the top of Tangzhong Valley in Tiantai Mountain. The sky was mended, but the pillars supporting the four pillars could not be found. If there were no pillars to support it, the sky would fall. In desperation, Nu Wa had to cut off her four feet, which had four poles supported by Ao Bai, the God of Tiantai Mountain. But Tiantai Mountain would sink to the bottom of the sea without the load of Aoi sora, so Nu Wa moved Tiantai Mountain to Langya, which is the area around Taoluo Town in Rizhao City today. Up to now, there are still the goddess who made up the roof of Tiantai Mountain, the aojiang God who was cut down and the colored stone left behind, which is later called the Sun God Stone.
