On the attitude of ancient people towards nature through two ancient myths: Goddess of Mending Heaven and Kuafu.

Goddess of mending heaven embodies the spirit of great love and describes the majestic spirit and fearless struggle spirit of transforming heaven and earth. Kuafu is increasingly showing enterprising spirit. Both of them reflected people's desire to know and conquer nature at that time.

The theme of Kuafu Day by Day is that ancient ancestors tried to transcend the shackles of limited life and longed for eternal life.

Ancient ancestors expressed their thoughts on life-time-life through myths such as fantasy, imagination and day by day: limited human life and strong yearning for eternal time. The limited individual life "enriches" the pain caused by the passage of time. Mankind has made unremitting efforts to pursue immortality.

One of the ancient myths and legends in China, Nu Wa, the goddess of creation, is the god who opened the Chinese nation's humanities and blessed the country. According to legend, Nu Wa made man from earth and turned everything into life, so the world was no longer silent. Nu Wa, the creator of the world, is called the mother of the earth [4-7]. She is a beautiful goddess, slim as a snake, so that some mythologists insist that she is just a snake.

The story of the goddess mending the sky, like the story of Nu Wa's creation, is a household name in China. In the era of Nuwa, with the increase of human reproduction, society began to be turbulent. Later generations regard Gong Shi, the god of water, and Zhu Rong, the god of fire, as the reason why Gong Shi ran into Zhoushan because of his defeat and rage, and connected a series of dynamic and moving stories such as The goddess patching the sky colored stone.

Ancient myths recorded the idealistic world outlook of the early ancestors of the Chinese nation to commemorate the settlement groups and leaders who made particularly significant contributions to the ethnic groups. The simpler the myth, the more it can restore the life and thoughts of early ancestors. Of course, those immortal spells and magic are endless legends that have nothing to do with real science.

Kuafu in the daytime is a fairy tale in ancient China, which comes from Shan Hai Jing Overseas North Jing.

According to legend, in the era of the Yellow Emperor, a leader of the Kuafu family wanted to pick the sun and put it in people's hearts, so they began to live day by day. When you are thirsty, you will drink all the Yellow River and Weishui, and prepare to drink the water from the great lakes (or seas) in the north. He died of thirst on the road in a daze. His walking stick became Deng Lin and a peach blossom garden; His body became Mount Kuafu.

The story "Day by day in Kuafu" has profound implications, indicating that "only those who pay attention to the race between time and the sun can walk fast; The faster you walk, the more empty you feel in your stomach, so you can need and accept more water (think of water as a symbol of knowledge); Only by getting more water can we race against time and not lag behind time. "

The purpose of Kuafu every day is to collect kindling for human beings and make the earth bright and warm. Kuafu is a "fire thief hero" and Prometheus of China. Mr. Xiao's views are quite romantic. Others regard Kuafu as a struggle of nature day after day, with Kuafu representing "water" and the sun representing "fire". The water god and the fire god contend, and water and fire are incompatible. Kuafu's daily stories give people rich imagination and profound enlightenment. How to understand this story is not only a concern of academic circles, but its positive significance lies in that people understand the world with their own different understandings and realize their own beautiful pursuit.

Daily intention

Kuafu's "Day by Day" is actually a long-distance tribal migration in the history of the Chinese nation and a brave adventure. However, due to their complete misunderstanding of the solar movement and the geographical situation in northwest China, they finally failed miserably.

In ancient times, any tribe settled in a place for a long time, and its primitive and destructive labor would inevitably destroy the resources there and tend to dry up. The decline or salinization of land fertility, the narrowing of hunting and fishing areas and so on are inevitable, and the available food and other materials will only become less and less. In this case, there is only one choice, and the tribe must move to a new and better place.

When Kuafu encountered this problem, he decided to go west to Yugu at sunset.

For the inland tribes in Kuafu, it is normal to make this decision. The earth is spherical, and it revolves around the sun. They know nothing about the geography of northwest China. They may know at most from the tribes near the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea that the east is the sea and the sun rises from there. As for the west, the end is the Jade Valley, and the sun sets.
