Time origin
The best time to watch the celestial phenomena should be in the dead of night and when the stars are all over the sky.
At midnight (23:00- 1:00), people in ancient China (astronomers or Taoists) looked up at the sky for a long time and suddenly heard a small noise around them. They looked down and saw that the mouse was moving.
Over time, people in ancient China found that the time for rats to haunt was midnight.
So when I was a child, I became attached to the mouse and became a child mouse, ranking first by the beginning of the day.
