Shoot for ten days and rebuild the calendar: Hou Yi is not only an archer but also a "scientist"

In recent 100 years, some literati abandoned martial arts in order to catch up with western science, and abandoned all the traditional culture of China as dross, resulting in that we did not have enough ancient prose foundation, and now we can't understand many things in ancient times.

Hou Yi was an ancient sage. Ancient sages all knew astronomy above and geography below. In today's words, he is a master of scientific, social and cultural knowledge and a doctor among doctors.

In ancient books, the earliest record of the shooting day of Houyi lies in the word "shooting", which, in my own opinion, may be the general name of the word "shooting" and means sorting out. So it should be "Houyi photo". The sun is not the sun, but the sky, the "sky" of two days. Therefore, in the translation, Hou Yi re-observed the astronomical phenomena, rearranged the calendar, and removed the extra nine days, so that the various solar terms and dates of each year corresponded perfectly again.

Later generations, including Shan Hai Jing, mistook archery for archery, and Hou Yi rearranged the calendar and removed the extra nine days. Later generations thought that archery shot down nine suns, so they made up the story that Hou Yi shot down nine suns in the sky.
