It is said that because the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are separated by the Milky Way, they can't meet each other, but on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, magpies offer feathers and bodies one after another to fill the river into a bridge so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can meet each other.
