Folklore story: (1) God saved Houyi from harm for the people.

When Emperor Yao was in charge of heaven and earth, ten firebirds appeared in the sky, and all the plants on the ground were burned up. The field crops planted by ordinary people also dried up because of lack of water, resulting in no harvest and no food to eat. What should we do?

Because the flora on the earth has been destroyed, all kinds of monsters have come out to harm mankind:

There is a kind of monster that looks like a raccoon, walks like a fly and makes a baby's cry to lure people. It can eat people in one bite.

There are also nine monsters, which can spray water and spit fire.

It is said that there will be a giant bird like a strong wind in the sky that day. When flying, it will blow so hard that it can destroy all the houses where people live.

There are wild boars with fangs on the ground, which are very fierce.

There are also huge pythons hovering in the trees, waiting for pedestrians to pass by and will catch people to eat.

Seeing that mankind was about to perish, the Emperor of Heaven reincarnated the most effective god around him to the mortal world to go through all the disasters and save the suffering of the Li people. Before he left, he gave him a powerful bow.

Because of the disaster on the earth, ordinary people don't eat or drink, let alone feed their children. Hou Yi was also born in poverty. When he was five years old, his parents reluctantly put him in a deep forest. Mother said with tears in her eyes, poor child, we can't bear to watch you starve to death. Everything depends on your fate.

Imagine an ancient ancestor. In the face of cruel natural disasters, it is not easy to survive only by self-instinct and social life.

Maybe it's a fairy protector, or a celestial protector. The child's Houyi was abandoned in the deep forest. Insects and birds didn't disturb him, and animals didn't attack him. Later, it was discovered by good hunters and brought home to raise adults. When I was a teenager, I met a god in my dream and taught him skills. I gave him a bow, which is unique to others. He succeeded, so he can naturally pull the bow.

Unconsciously, Hou Yi's art has been in full swing, and his arms have shown his divine power. Father Orion asked him to try the bow, and he could pull it easily. And when the bow is pulled, the arrow is shot, the vegetation vibrates and the birds and animals are surprised. Father Orion knew that he was different and asked him to travel to help those who needed help more.

It is said that ten firebirds in the sky are sent by the God of the universe to be on duty every day, bringing light to the world. These ten birds used to live in a wild place called Blackpool between heaven and earth. People there have dark teeth and eat both self-produced food and autotrophic snakes.

They all have blackheads. Beneath this dark pool is a soup valley with huge hibiscus trees. Ten firebirds like to bathe in this valley. There is a large area of water in the north of Blackpool, and there is a big tree in the water. Usually, there are nine firebirds living in trees, and another firebird will fly out of the dark pool to shine on the earth.

But because of the god of the universe, he only cares about playing between planets. The distance between this planet and that planet is very far, calculated by light. As a result, the ten firebirds were ignored, and they flew over the earth to play together, which brought disaster to the world.

According to time, this day is a day and the world is a year. By the time Hou Yi was 20 years old, the world had been baked by firebirds for more than ten years, and human beings had suffered a lot. Later, Hou Yi volunteered to find Emperor Yao and promised to shoot the ten firebirds himself to save the people in from the mire.

In order to test Hou Yi's ability, Emperor Yao asked him to fight with a chisel. The incisor is a monster living in the southern swamp area, leading it to Kunlun Mountain. In Kunlun Mountain, Houyi and Chishao fought in the wilderness of Shouhua. In that battle, Yi held a bow and arrow, a shield and a spear in his teeth. But in the end, I resisted Yi's arrow and was shot to death by Yi.

After celebrating Yi, Emperor Yao went to shoot firebirds. Those ten firebirds are used to being careless, so they don't care about Hou Yi. Still playing on the North River between heaven and earth, Hou Yi asked them to leave the North River as soon as possible and return to the land of Blackpool. Firebirds ignore them. Hou Yi's speed of drawing an arrow and a bow is also extremely fast, and he also used a series of arrows. Suddenly two firebirds were shot down by him from the North River.

Firebirds are fearless, as if the death of their companions really has nothing to do with themselves. So Hou Yi shot down eight firebirds in succession, leaving only the last two firebirds flying in the sky, but the temperature on the earth was still very high.

When he was about to shoot the last firebird. People knelt down and begged him, hoping that he would leave the last firebird and leave some light and warmth to the world. Since then, the human earth has recovered its original vitality and vitality. The monster stopped his activities and endangered mankind, and Hou Yi became the most effective cadre of Emperor Yao. They led people to build more villages, rivers and roads, and human beings naturally and orderly live in harmony with everything in the world.

Looking far away from heaven and earth, until now, we can still see that there is only one sun in the sky.
