In the northern wilderness of ancient times, there used to be a group of miserable people, and their leader was called Kuafu. In order to keep the people alive, Kuafu has to lead everyone to fight against the flood beasts every day!
One year, the weather was unusually hot, the sun shone on the earth, the crops were scorched, the trees were roasted to death, and even the rivers and lakes dried up!Kuafu looked at the people who had died in the scorching heat, raised his head and swore, "The sun is so hateful!."I'm going to catch it and catch it and make it do what the humans do!”
The tribesmen said that the sun was too far away from the people and too hot, and that Kuafu would be roasted to death even if he would not die of exhaustion. But Kuafu said: For the happy life of the clan, he must catch up with the sun!
Kuafu said goodbye to his clansmen, and set off to the East China Sea before dawn. He wants to start his day-by-day journey by the sea where the sun rises!
The sun rises in the east, and Kuafu is running like the wind on the ground, desperately chasing the sun!Kuafu ran faster and faster, getting closer to the sun, and feeling hotter and hotter!The hungry and thirsty Kuafu chased him to the Yellow River, and he leaned down and drank the water of the Yellow River in one goKuafu chased to the Wei River again, and drank the water of the Wei River with one mouthKuafu chased northward and drank up the water of the Great Northern Lakes!
Kuafu climbed over mountains, crossed rivers, and after nine days and nine nights of desperate pursuit, he finally caught up with the sun in the place where the sun was about to set!Kuafu stretched out his huge arms and wanted to hold the sun tightlyBut the sun was so hot and hot that the scorching Kuafu couldn't get close to him!Kuafu was so tired that he threw down his wooden staff and slowly fell to the ground
Kuafu's body became a big mountain, and people called it "Kuafu Mountain";The cane he threw down when he fell became a lush peach forest, the shade of the trees shaded the travelers, and the peaches produced quenched the thirst of the industrious people!And the people of Kuafu also migrated to Kuafu Mountain and lived and worked in peace and contentment in this fertile land!
