In ancient times, there was a towering mountain in the Great Northern Wilderness. In the depths of the forest, there lived a group of giants with infinite strength. Their leader has two golden snakes in his ear and two golden snakes in his hand. His name is Kuafu, so this group of people is called Kuafu. The people of Kuafu are kind, hardworking and brave, and live a carefree life.
One year, the weather was very hot, the burning sun shone directly on the earth, the trees were scorched and the rivers dried up. People can't stand the heat. People in Kuafu are dying. Kuafu, the leader, was very sad. He looked up at the sun and told his people, "The sun is terrible! I must catch up with the sun, catch it and let it listen to people. " Hearing this, the clansmen dissuaded them. Someone said, "Don't go. The sun is so far away from us that you will be exhausted. " Someone said, "The sun is so hot, you will be roasted to death." But Kuafu made up his mind. He looked at the distressed person and said, "I must go for everyone's happiness!" "
Kuafu bid farewell to his people and strode towards the rising sun, chasing the wind. The sun is moving fast in the air, and Kuafu is running hard on the ground. He climbed mountains and mountains, and the earth was shocked and shaken by his steps. Tired of running, Kuafu shook off the dirt in his shoes, and a big earth mountain formed on the ground. When Kuafu was cooking, he picked up three stones to make a pot. These three stones became three high mountains standing at their feet, several thousand meters high.
Kuafu has been chasing the sun. Seeing that I am getting closer to the sun, my confidence is getting stronger and stronger. Finally, Kuafu caught up with the sun at sunset. A red fireball appeared in front of Kuafu, and all the golden rays bathed him. Kuafu was ecstatic with open arms, trying to embrace the sunshine. But the sun was unusually hot, and Kuafu felt thirsty and tired. He ran to the Yellow River and drank the water in one breath. He ran to the Weihe River and drank the Weihe River water, but he still didn't quench his thirst. Kuafu went to the north, where there was osawa, and there was enough water in osawa to quench Kuafu's thirst. But Kuafu died of thirst on the way to osawa.
When Kuafu died, his heart was filled with regret. He was still worried about his own people, so he threw out the stick in his hand. Where the wooden stick landed, a lush peach forest suddenly appeared. This peach forest is lush all the year round, providing shade for passers-by. Fresh peaches quench their thirst, which makes people feel tired and embark on the journey energetically.
Kuafu's daily stories reflect China's ancient ancestors' desire to overcome drought. Although Kuafu finally died, his indomitable spirit did not die. In many ancient books in China, there are legends about Kuafu's daily life. In some parts of China, this mountain is also called "Kuafu Mountain" to commemorate Kuafu.
