Year of the snake folk custom and folk custom about snakes.

In ancient China, snakes were also regarded as a symbol of bumper harvest or offspring reproduction, especially in the ancient culture of southwest or south China, cultural relics with snakes as the motif were common.

Sun Shi, the grandmother of Zhang Zhao, the prime minister of Soochow in the Three Kingdoms, was swimming in Jiangpu in a canoe when suddenly a 30-foot-long white snake jumped into the boat. She cursed: "You are lucky not to poison me, but you will return it, put it in your room, watch it for one night, and never see the snake again."

Neighbors saw a white crane fly away from Zhang Lingyun. Sun Shi divined, and the diviner told her that it was auspicious and children should be taken seriously. Later, her grandson, Zhang Zhao, really helped General Wu become prime minister. At that time, people thought it was auspicious to inherit snakes and cranes.

The relationship between ancient snakes and gods;

In ancient China mythology, snakes are also closely related to gods and people. In The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Western Classics at home, the Western Classics abroad, and the Wild West Classics, there are descriptions of immortals piercing, catching and practicing snakes.

In the images of stone reliefs and brick reliefs in the Han Dynasty, the statues of Fuxi and Nu Wa are all depicted as snake bodies and snake tails of human bodies, or holding the sun and moon (some people think it is the sun god and the moon god) or holding rules, and sometimes the snake bodies and snake tails at the lower part are depicted as dragons and snake tails.

In the silk paintings of the Tang Dynasty unearthed from Astana Tomb in Turpan, Xinjiang, Fuxi and Nu Wa, surrounded by stars, are intimately intertwined with the snake's body and tail, showing magical artistic modeling and expectations of future generations.
