Chapter 1052 The Legend of Moon Palace
The love story between Wu Gang and Chang'e is a famous story in traditional Chinese culture and has been passed down to this day.
According to legend, there was an extremely wealthy man named Wu Gang in ancient China, and he was married to Chang'e.
One day, the Emperor of Heaven sent Chang'e to the Moon Palace to become a fairy on the moon.
In the Moon Palace, Chang'e met the Jade Rabbit, the Osmanthus Tree, and a magical medicine that could make people immortal.
Chang'e felt that she could not selfishly enjoy this blessing alone, so she decided to bring the magic medicine back to earth to share with her husband.
However, when she picked up the magic medicine and prepared to leave the Moon Palace, she was discovered by the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor of Heaven was so angry that he punished Chang'e by turning her into a fairy who would live on the moon forever.
After Chang'e was trapped on the moon, the annual Mid-Autumn Festival became a day to commemorate her.
People will gather together on this day, looking up at the bright moon, missing Chang'e, and admiring the scene of Wu Gang working hard to cut down the osmanthus trees under the moon.
It is said that Wu Gang worked tirelessly to cut down the osmanthus tree in order to reunite with Chang'e, but he was never able to cut down the osmanthus tree.
This story tells the deep love between Wu Gang and Chang'e.
Chang'e was willing to return to the earth for her lover, but was trapped on the moon due to the punishment of the Emperor of Heaven, while Wu Gang cut down the laurel tree alone in order to reunite with Chang'e.
Their love story has become a symbol of the Mid-Autumn Festival and filled people with yearning for love and eternal longing.
This story is of course false because it conflicts with another story.
There is a famous poem that everyone must remember: Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky are in my heart every night.
In myths and legends, "Hou Yi" is the husband of "Chang'e".
When Hou Yi was there, there were ten suns (sons of the Emperor of Heaven) in the sky, burning all the vegetation and crops withered.
In order to save the people, Hou Yi shot down nine suns in succession.
From then on, the climate on the earth was suitable and all things could grow. He also shot and killed ferocious beasts and poisonous snakes to eliminate harm for the people (that is the story above). The people therefore regarded him as the "Arrow God" and a great hero.
One day, Hou Yi went hunting in the woods and met the Queen Mother of the West. So Hou Yi asked her for an elixir. If he took the elixir, he would live forever and become a flying immortal.
Hou Yi couldn't bear to leave his wife Chang'e, so he refused to take the medicine and gave it to Chang'e for safekeeping.
Chang'e got greedy and secretly ate the elixir, then flew to the moon and became a god.
On the one hand, he gained immortality, but on the other hand, he lost his most beloved husband.
In fact, this matter is easy to understand according to the general routine. Of course, the people on earth loved Hou Yi.
But the Emperor of Heaven and his wife were not happy. Nine of his ten sons were shot to death by Hou Yi. Therefore, the moment Queen Mother Xi came down to earth to deliver medicine, she actually planned to break up Hou Yi's family.
Going back to the poem, Chang'e regretted it...we don't know.
Because which is more important, immortality or a happy love and marriage life, Chang'e has her own ideas.
The poet thought for Chang'e. When she looked at the world after a sleepless night and looked at the world in the morning, did she think of her mortal husband who ran in the mountains and forests, jumped in the streams, and was as good as a god with arrows?
The poet thinks that she should regret it, because although she became a fairy, flew to the Moon Palace, and became an immortal immortal, she ended up living alone in the Guanghan Palace from now on, lonely and unaccompanied. How deserted and boring it must be.
"The blue sea and blue sky are in my heart every night", so the poet thought for her, how deserted it must be in the years, months, twilights and mornings in the sky, facing the blue sea and blue sky, every lonely night, every sleepless morning. , how difficult to get rid of it!
It turns out that there was no Hou Yi shooting the sun, no Chang'e, not even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West.
Everything is a fairy tale.
Wu Gang is a disciple of the Moon God, and he stays on the moon to protect the formation.
"Then who is keeping the ordinary path?" Zeng Jing asked.
"The earth's space has entered a new universe. There is no fairyland there, only mortals. Wu Gang has also left."
"…………,…………."
………….
Only then did Zeng Jing remember that the universe in which the earth was located had been taken over by herself.
From then on, the universe where the Milky Way is located no longer has gods, immortals and monsters.
Not even a ghost.
Because the underworld is also in another universe.
