The origin of the zodiac rat:

Legend has it that a long time ago, the zodiac was run by four heavenly kings. The person born in that year belongs to the deacon's heavenly king. Later, after the four heavenly kings returned to the Heavenly Palace to guard the Nantianmen, the Jade Emperor decided to choose 12 animals to represent the human zodiac and make them gods. In order to embody the principle of fairness, the Jade Emperor ordered that all animals on the earth could be selected in the Heavenly Palace on a specified day, and only the top 12 animals who arrived in the Heavenly Palace were taken as the ranking order.

Once upon a time, mice and cats were good friends. They agreed to go to the Heavenly Palace to play the zodiac, and agreed that the mouse would call the cat to set off together. However, the clever mouse thinks that many animals in the world are more beautiful than themselves, and they are also useful to human beings. For example, cats chanting scriptures, rabbits Yue Bai, dogs guarding the house, dragons and snakes controlling water, Monkey Town Mountain, cattle and horses plowing fields, pigs and sheep for human consumption, they should try their best to win the zodiac.

So, on the morning of the appointment to go to the Heavenly Palace, the little mouse got up quietly and didn't call the cat. He sneaked into the corner of the old cow and hid. The most resilient and diligent cow took himself to the Tiangong, and the old cow was the first to arrive at the gate of the Tiangong. At dawn, the four heavenly kings just opened the door of the Grand Palace. Before the cow could lift its hoof, the little mouse jumped down from the horn and went straight to the heavenly palace. Although the jade emperor doesn't want to call this little mouse the zodiac. However, there is not a joke in the mouths of kings, and the rules they set themselves cannot be changed. The Jade Emperor had to declare the mouse the first of the 12 zodiac animals.

The cat waited at home for a long time, but there was no sign of the mouse, so it had to go to the heavenly palace by itself. Because we couldn't wait for the mouse, the cat arrived at the Heavenly Palace, and the quota of the 12 Zodiacs was full, and there was not a cat left. From then on, the cat hated the mouse, and when it saw the mouse, it rushed to bite it to vent its anger. As for mice, he also thinks that some friends who can't afford cats run away when they see them. Even today, cats and mice are almost rivals. People also think that the first animal of the Chinese zodiac is not aboveboard, and it has lost its affection for mice, and other animals have alienated it.

So he left people and other poultry and livestock to build his own home and live an independent life. To this day, their descendants still live underground. Now it avoids entanglement and struggle with other animals, so the mouse's family is always prosperous. In any case, the mouse, after all, took the first place in the zodiac by virtue of its alertness and cleverness.

From the afternoon 1 1 to the next afternoon 1 (that is, "midnight"). At this time, mice have the greatest courage and the most frequent activities, so they have been paired with mice since childhood.
