What is the reincarnation of Bao Qingtian?

There are two theories about the reincarnation of Bao Qingtian: the first is that according to folklore, Bao Qingtian is the reincarnation of Kuixing; Second, according to myths and legends, Bao Qingtian is the reincarnation of Wen Quxing.

The reincarnation of kuixing

In the second episode of "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness", Kuixing Zhao Meng Zhong Liang was born, and Buller Xuanwei Fox took refuge. Bao Gong's father dreamed that Kuixing was ugly and thought it was a monster. It happened that his wife gave birth to a son. Fu Bao thought it was an elf, threw Bao Gong out, and was saved by his eldest brother. His sister-in-law raised him.

The reincarnation of Wen Quxing

It is said that at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, natural and man-made disasters continued, and the people were miserable. The Jade Emperor sent a barefoot immortal down to earth to be emperor to treat people's sufferings. However, the barefoot fairy is used to living in heaven and refuses to agree to anything. So the Jade Emperor promised to send Wen Quxing and Wu Quxing to protect him, and the barefoot fairy reluctantly agreed to come to earth.

Emperor Song Renzong was born after the barefoot fairy came down to earth, but he has been crying since he was born, urging Wen Quxing and Wu Quxing to come down to earth quickly. After reincarnation, Wen Quxing is Bao Zheng. But he hurriedly took away the samurai's face, so he was born with a black face, so that his father abandoned his mother and threw him into the pockmarked pit at the head of the village.

Bao Zheng cried in the pit, and his sister-in-law took pity on him and brought him home to raise him, so Bao Zheng took him as his sister-in-law. When Bao Zheng grew up, he won the top prize. When he visited the palace, the queen gave him a three-foot HongLing to cover his face. ?

Later generations regarded him as a god and thought that he was the reincarnation of Kuixing? Because of its black face image, it is also called "Bao Qingtian".
