Do you have an independent story about the zodiac?

mouse

In the zodiac, it belongs to the first place and belongs to the twelve earthly branches. It is said that a long time ago, the zodiac was run by four heavenly kings, and those born in that year, no matter what their surnames were, belonged to whom. 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. At that 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.

Ugly cow

In ancient times, cows were servants in front of the Jade Emperor's palace, and they often traveled to and from the Heaven Palace and the earth. One day, the farmer sent a message to the Jade Emperor, saying that nothing grows on the earth, and the earth is bare and ugly. He asked the Jade Emperor to bring some mother grass seeds to the earth to make it look better. When the Jade Emperor heard this, he found it reasonable, so he asked His Highness who would like to plant grass on earth. "Jade Emperor, I am willing to go to earth to sow grass seeds." Niu Wang volunteered to say. "You are a careless guy, I'm afraid not." The jade emperor said with trepidation. "The Jade Emperor can rest assured that I am willing to be punished if I can't do this little thing well." Niu Wang insisted on going. The Jade Emperor agreed to Niu Wang's request and asked him to walk three steps and sprinkle a handful of grass seeds after he came to earth. The ox king walked out of the Heavenly Palace with grass seeds. When he walked out of the worse gate, he accidentally fell down. After his death, he was dizzy and mistakenly thought that the jade emperor's will was to scatter three grass seeds one step at a time. As a result, many grass seeds were scattered on the ground. The next year, there were so many weeds that farmers couldn't grow crops at all. They asked the Kitchen God to tell the Jade Emperor that there were too many weeds to grow crops. The jade emperor knew the bad thing and called Niu Wang to know that the careless Niu Wang had sown three straws at a time, which ruined a good thing. "You careless old cow, the world is full of grass, how can you guarantee? From now on, you and your descendants are only allowed to eat grass and help farmers weed. At the same time, generations have been helping farmers work. " When the Jade Emperor finished, his anger did not disappear. He flew up and kicked old Niu Yi in the foot. The ox king fell from the sky with his mouth down, and a row of his upper teeth fell out. As a result, cows have been working as coolies for farmers all their lives, and people have not stopped eating grass. Until today, its row of upper teeth has not yet grown out. However, the cow is a good animal. It is hardworking, diligent and practical, and it never lets go of pulling a cart to plow the fields. It has done a lot of work for farmers and won people's praise. When arranging the zodiac, people recommend him as the zodiac. If it weren't for the speculative mouse hiding in the horn that won the first prize, Niu Wang would definitely be the eldest of the 12 zodiac animals. Cows have become the human zodiac because of their contribution to mankind.

In ancient times, there were lions but no tigers. Because lions are cruel and have a bad reputation, the Jade Emperor in charge of seals wants to remove lions from the list, but he wants to add an animal to manage the mountains. At this time, the jade emperor thought of the tiger guards in front of the temple. The samurai guards in the Heavenly Palace used to be just an unknown animal on the ground. He learned eighteen kinds of martial arts from master cat, such as grasping, jumping, biting, frying, rushing, jumping and folding, and became a warrior in the forest. Anything it competes with will die or get hurt. Since then, tigers have ruled the mountains. Later, the jade emperor heard that the old crow was brave and ordered the tiger to go to heaven. When the tiger went to heaven, he competed with the jade emperor's Wei family and won. Since then, the tiger has become the guardian in front of the Temple of Heaven. You know, before long, the birds and animals on the ground saw that no one was in charge and began to run amok. The disaster caused to the world alarmed the land god, who quickly reported it to heaven and asked the Jade Emperor to send a brave god to stop all the animals. The Jade Emperor sent a tiger to earth, and the tiger needed a * every time it won. The jade emperor only wanted peace on earth, and of course he readily agreed to the tiger's request. When he came to the earth, the tiger knew that lions, bears and horses were the three most powerful animals at that time. It specifically challenges these three animals. With tiger tiger's courage and superb martial arts connection, he defeated lions, bears and horses. Other evil beasts fled at the wind and hid in the uninhabited forest wilderness. The world is cheering and thanking the tiger for its great contribution to the world. Back in the sky, the jade emperor carved three horizontal lines on the tiger's front collar because of its winning streak. Later, humans were harassed by turtles in the East China Sea, and the land was Wang Yang. Shrimp soldiers and crabs will do evil on earth, and tigers will come to earth again to kill turtles and monsters. When the Jade Emperor was happy, he gave the tiger a big * and added a vertical to the three horizontal lines on his forehead. So a striking word "Wang" appeared on the tiger's forehead. Since then, the tiger has become the king of all animals, in charge of all animals. Today, the majestic word "Wang" can still be seen on the tiger's forehead. After the notoriety of the lion spread to the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor decided to remove the title of the lion's zodiac and add the Beastmaster Tiger. Since then, the tiger has become an animal symbol, while the lion has been exiled to the far south. Of course, the tiger was also descended by the guards in front of the Jade Emperor Temple to keep the lower world peaceful forever. Today, there are also tiger charms, tiger rings and tiger carvings to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. In rural areas, many people also like to wear tiger-headed hats and shoes for their children. As a blessing, this is not an evil, auspicious and safe plan.

Rabbit is the fourth of the 12 zodiac animals. It is associated with the twelve branches of the earth, so twelve o'clock in the day is also called "rabbit time"-from five to seven in the morning. Speaking of rabbit, the Chinese zodiac, there is an interesting legend of "rabbit-cow race" circulating among the people. According to legend, rabbits and cows are neighbors. They get along well and call each other brothers. Cows live by hard work, rabbits live by cleverness and ability, and they all live well. One day, the rabbit who is good at long-distance running shows off in front of the bull: "I am the champion of long-distance running in the animal kingdom, and no one can outrun me!" " "The bull humbly asks for the know-how of long-distance running, but the rabbit proudly shakes his head and says," Long-distance running champions can't learn by their innate qualities. "In addition, if you run lightly, you will never run fast." Niu Xin was half cold to the rabbit, but he was not convinced. From then on, scalpers began to practice long-distance running. With the strength of an indomitable bull, the bull finally became a pair of "iron feet". I don't know how tired I am for days and nights. On the day when the Jade Emperor ranked the zodiac, according to the rules, whoever arrived first was allowed to be the zodiac. The cow and the rabbit agreed that the rooster would get up at the first crow and go straight to the Heavenly Palace to compete for the zodiac. When the cock crowed for the first time, when the bull got up, the rabbit had run away alone. The rabbit ran for a long time, turned around and hugged it, but there was no sign of any animals. Rabbit thought, I got up the earliest and ran the fastest today, that is, I slept. The first name of this zodiac is mine, too. So it fell asleep on the grass. Although the bull lags behind, it is driven by its tenacious endurance and steel-like foot strength. While the rabbit was still sleeping, it ran to the heavenly palace first. A rush of footsteps woke the rabbit. When I opened my eyes, it turned out that the tiger ran past like a gust of wind. Now the rabbit is in a hurry and rushes to catch up. It's a pity that we are a step behind the tiger. Because there is an opportunistic mouse squatting between the horns of the cow, the rabbit is only ranked fourth. The top three are mice, cows, tigers and rabbits. Although he became the zodiac, he felt humiliated and lost to their sarcastic old cow. When they came back, they moved their home to the pit, and now the rabbit still lives in the pit. But rabbits don't learn from it. If you don't believe me, another "bull-rabbit race" or "tortoise-rabbit race" today will definitely win the rabbit.

Dragon ranks fifth in the zodiac. How did the zodiac dragon come from? It is said that ancient dragons had no horns. At that time, dragons lived on the ground. It is very strong in itself, can fly, is good at swimming, and wants to be an animal symbol, and also wants to be a beastmaster instead of a tiger. As a result, Long Hudou was born in the world, and the result is inseparable. Finally, the Jade Emperor thought that they played badly and ordered them to come to the Heavenly Palace for trial. When he left, the dragon felt that although he was tall, he was not as powerful as the tiger, and he was afraid that the jade emperor would look down on himself. He was not a beastmaster or a zodiac sign. At this time, the dragon's younger brother centipede had an idea: "The rooster has a pair of beautiful horns. Don't be afraid. If you borrow them, you will definitely add a little prestige to Brother Long." The dragon was overjoyed, so he and centipede came to the rooster to borrow horns. The rooster heard that the dragon wanted to borrow its horn, but he refused to live or die. The dragon was in a hurry and swore to heaven, "If I don't return your horn, I will die when I get back to land." Centipede was also a protector in Qin Shihuang's time. "If Brother Long doesn't return your horn, you can eat me in one bite." When the cock saw the centipede as safe, he lent his horn to the dragon. When Dragon and Tiger arrived in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor saw that both dragons and tigers were very powerful, so he ordered them to be the king of beasts, the tiger the king of land beasts and the dragon the king of aquatic animals. Since the tiger can be the zodiac, the dragon can also be the zodiac, only in the back. So, both the dragon and the tiger were happy, left the Jade Emperor and returned to the mortal world. When they came back, the dragon thought, if I give the horn back to the rooster, will the aquarium people believe that I am so ugly? So I decided not to return the cock's horn, plunged into the water, and now I don't go to land. When the rooster saw that the dragon didn't return its horn, he was flushed with anger and took it out on the centipede. The centipede was so scared that it got into the crack. Today, we can also see that the cock's face is always red, and centipedes rarely climb out of the ground. When the cock sees the centipede, he always eats it one by one and always shouts, "Brother Long, give me back my horn?" ! "The dragon has never been to land again. Although the dragon is the only fictional animal in the China Zodiac, China people respect and fear it and have a special feeling. The status of the dragon is unmatched by any animal. In China people's minds, it is a mythical thing that can make a difference. The emperor claimed to be the real dragon emperor, and the people themselves were descendants of the dragon. People give full play to their infinite imagination, make Long Bian magical and great, and combine the images of various animals into Jackie Chan, which has the wildness of animals, understanding of people and spirituality of gods, and has created many dragon legends. These legends are more fascinating after being processed by the people and polished by the literati. People's psychology that John Lone loves dragons has been sublimated into a kind of worship. Perhaps this is also the cultural factor that makes the dragon a zodiac.

snake

How did your zodiac snake come from? A long time ago, snakes and frogs were friends, but then snakes had four legs and frogs had no legs. They crawl on their bellies, but snakes are lazy and frogs are diligent. They not only catch insects for snakes to eat, but also help people catch pests. Therefore, of course, human beings hate snakes and like frogs. The snake found that people hated him, and he began to hate people. It bites everyone and eats livestock, which makes the world very uneasy. When the land god saw it, he sued the Heavenly Palace. The Jade Emperor sent the snake to the Heavenly Palace to persuade it to turn over a new leaf. However, the snake talks wildly and has no intention of repentance. The jade emperor was furious and asked the magic weapon to cut off the snake's four legs so as not to hurt people. Since then, the snake has lost four legs. Seeing that the frog had a human being, the Jade Emperor gave the frog four legs of the snake. Frogs are more diligent when they have legs. The snake regretted his mistake and was determined to reform itself. It also began to eat pests, dragging its long body and doing good things for mankind without saying a word. Snakes also learn to control water with dragons. After its death, it also dedicated its body to human beings and treated many patients as medicine. When the jade emperor saw that the snake could change its mind, it took a lot of trouble. When he decided to seal the zodiac, he put it behind the dragon and became the human zodiac. After the snake becomes the zodiac, of course, it will not take the initiative to hurt people. Once evil thoughts germinate, they turn into a layer of skin to show that they are new people. Nevertheless, it still bears a grudge against the frog because it has four legs, so until today, the snake bites the frog as soon as it sees it. The frog knows that he has taken advantage of the snake, so when he sees the snake, he will tremble with fear and run away in a hurry. Obviously, snakes became the zodiac by their own efforts. Coincidentally, among several ancient civilizations in the world, except China, Babylonia, Greece, Egypt, India and other countries also have twelve genera of folk customs, all of which have snakes without exception. The snake in the Garden of Eden recorded in the Bible dared to take away God's forbidden law, which inspired Adam and Eve, the ancestor of mankind, to steal the forbidden fruit, and made mankind know good and evil, including secular desires. This feat of the snake is as great as Prometheus who stole skyfire to the world. The famous Maya Ku Ku Ku Kun Temple, which means Quetzalcoatl Temple. Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, loves a snake that symbolizes wisdom and longevity. Hermes, the messenger of Zeus, always carries a double snake staff symbolizing privilege. As for India, it is a country full of snake worship. In fact, the legendary ancestor of the Yellow Emperor, the clan of Fuwa, was worshipped by the snake totem. This series of phenomena shows that snakes have a long history of indissoluble bond with human beings, so it is not surprising that people in China regard snakes as their own zodiac signs.

Legend has it that ancient horses had wings called Tianma. It can run on the ground, swim in the water and fly in the sky. This is a very powerful animal. Later, it made a royal horse in front of the Jade Emperor Temple. Because of the love of the Jade Emperor, Tianma gradually became arrogant and often ran amok. One day, Tianma left the Heavenly Palace and went straight to the East China Sea to break into the Dragon Palace. The tortoise guarding the palace gate and the shrimp and crab will stop together. Tianma became angry from embarrassment and kicked Shen Gui to death. When this incident was reported to the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor ordered the wings of Tianma to be cut off. And under the Kunlun Mountain, you are not allowed to turn over for 300 years. More than 200 years later, the first sister of mankind, Terran, wanted to pass through Kunlun Mountain. The fairies in the Temple of Heaven and the Imperial Horse Garden gave Tianma a thorough letter telling him how to get out of the mountain. When Renzu passed by, Tianma shouted, "Good Renzu, come and save me. I am willing to go to the world with you and work for you all my life. " Hearing this, the ancestors expressed deep sympathy and cut down the peach tree at the top of the mountain according to Tianma's words. Only when there was a loud noise, Tianma jumped out from the bottom of Kunlun Mountain. In order to thank the ancestors for saving their lives, Tianma followed them to the world and served them all his life. Usually plow the land to pull carts and move things, and do whatever you want. In wartime, he put on armor and rode on horseback, conquered the battlefield, fought side by side with his master, and repeatedly built and occupied it. Since then, horses and people have become inseparable friends. When the Jade Emperor was ready to choose twelve kinds of animals, the horse became one of the animals that humans chose the most. The Jade Emperor also allowed Ma Li * to become the zodiac because he made atonement and helped others. Folklore is of course fiction, but in fact, the close relationship between horses and people is unmatched by any kind of livestock. Since humans bid farewell to the era of fishing and hunting and entered the farming society, horses have become one of the earliest animals raised by humans. Horses are smart, brave, loyal and hardworking, and have become reliable friends and capable assistants of human beings. Whether in farming, hunting, transportation, transportation, etc. , or in the ancient and modern Chinese and foreign bloody battlefield, horses have made great contributions to mankind. No wonder the ancients rated horses as "the first of six livestock". Today, although the role of horses as human assistants has been weakened due to the development of science and technology and the improvement of mechanization, the touching images of horses wandering in the air, old horses crouching, gold buying bones and righteous horses as saviors for millions of years will never disappear. Horses, with their loyalty, diligence and spirituality, have won the recognition of human beings and become the human zodiac animals.

In China folklore, sheep are as great as Prometheus in Greek mythology. Prometheus was put on the stage for stealing skyfire from the world, while sheep gave their lives for stealing five grains and seeds from the world. In ancient times of panic, there were no grains on the earth. People live on vegetables and weeds, and severe malnutrition makes people look yellow, hungry and thin. One autumn, a god sheep came to the world from the Heavenly Palace and found that human beings were pale and depressed. Ask why, I just know that humans don't grow food, and I don't even know what food is. God sheep is so kind that he immediately tells people to bring them some grain seeds next time. It turned out that at that time, only Tiangong and Yutian planted nutritious food. The stingy jade emperor doesn't want to share delicious food with human beings. After God Sheep returned to the Heavenly Palace, he sneaked into the palace in the middle of the night, picked the grains (rice, millet, wheat, beans and hemp), put them in his mouth, and slipped to the earth before dawn. Humans are very curious. I heard that God Sheep brought them the seeds of grain. God sheep gave the seeds to people and told them how to grow grain, and then quietly returned to the heavenly palace. When humans sow the seeds of grain, they grow crops that year. What humans see when harvesting is the ear of wheat, which is like the head and tail of a sheep. The harvested grain is fragrant and sweet, and the clothes made of harvested hemp are light and warm. After the autumn harvest and winter storage, people held a grand sacrificial ceremony to thank the sheep for their kindness in sending seeds. This kind of ancestor worship ceremony for farmers in autumn harvest and winter storage is still held in some rural areas. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to sheep by fire alarmed the Jade Emperor, who thought of the appearance of human grains. I immediately thought that God Sheep had brought Guge to the world. After finding out the situation, the Jade Emperor was furious with the God Sheep, ordered the Heaven Palace to slaughter the sheep on earth and invited people to eat mutton. The next year, a strange thing happened. Where the sheep walked, the grass first grew, and then the lamb grew. Since then, sheep have been passed down from generation to generation, eating grass for a living and selflessly dedicating their meat and milk to human beings. Out of gratitude for the sacrifice of sheep, human beings hold the La Worship every year. When people heard that the Jade Emperor wanted to choose twelve kinds of animals as human zodiac animals to be dedicated to the gods, people unanimously recommended sheep as such zodiac animals. Although the Jade Emperor was very unhappy about the sheep stealing the grain, it was hard to disagree with everyone and had to agree that the sheep became the zodiac.

Legend has it that the tiger became a king in the name of making animals in the mountains. When all the animals in the mountain saw the tiger, they immediately dodged. Of course, tigers are proud and lonely. At that time, monkeys and tigers were neighbors. They called each other brothers. When the tiger king goes out, the monkey acts as the mountain commander. All the animals were awed by the power of the tiger king and only listened to the call of the lion. This is the origin of "there is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is called the king". One day, King Tiger unfortunately fell into the hunter's net and struggled hard. Just as the monkey came, King Tiger shouted for help. When the monkey saw this, he quickly climbed up the tree, untied the hunter's net rope and rescued the tiger king. After King Tiger escaped from danger, although he kept thanking Brother Monkey, he thought in his heart: I am the king of beasts. I was trapped by a hunter, but I was rescued by a little monkey. If the monkey publicizes this matter, I might as well kill the monkey, but on second thought, I am alone now. If I kill the monkey again, I won't even have friends in the future. Who will help me if there is any danger again? Besides, the monkey is afraid of me and will never tell me what happened today. So the tiger told the monkey that he saved his life today and would be rewarded in the future. In the future, if the monkey has something difficult, he must pay it back with all his strength. The monkey, in order to save face, of course, kept silent about the embarrassment of King Tiger. After that, the relationship between them was even more unusual. Many years later, the jade emperor began to choose the zodiac. As the king of beasts, the tiger naturally becomes the zodiac. The monkey saw it and wanted to be a zodiac. However, there is a principle for the Jade Emperor to choose the zodiac, that is, to have * for human beings. Monkeys have nothing to say to humans, so they naturally have no choice. So the monkey asked the tiger king to plead with the jade emperor and let him be the zodiac. Because King Tiger owed the monkey a debt of gratitude, he had to do his best to intercede for the monkey, telling the jade emperor that the Monkey League was the most resourceful of all animals. When he was away, the monkey also had a job, so the jade emperor made a decree to include the monkey in the zodiac. The monkey became the zodiac, and the tiger king returned the favor to the monkey. Of course, King Tiger is still unhappy. The incompetent monkey was listed as the human zodiac with himself, and their friendship was cut off from now on. Today, all animals are not afraid of monkeys. Of course, the truth that "there is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is king" has become ironic today.

You coward

King Chicken is a competitive guy, always making trouble and fighting (this virtue still exists today). When the jade emperor named the zodiac, he considered whether animals did harm to human beings, and of course, the chicken king was not on the list. One day, King Chicken was very envious when he saw that the horse that was sealed with the zodiac was loved by people. So he stepped forward and asked, "Brother Ma, what is your honor today?" The horse replied: "I plow and transport things at ordinary times, and I am responsible for it in wartime, which has made great contributions to mankind." Of course, I should be loved. " "It is not difficult to win people's love, as long as you can give full play to your advantages and do something for people," Ma said. Take animals that have been sealed with the zodiac as an example. Cattle can plow the fields, dogs can watch the door, pigs can feed people, dragons can rain, and you are born with a golden voice, which may be helpful to mankind. "When the chicken king came home, he thought about it, and finally thought of waking up the sleeping people with his golden voice. So every day at dawn, the chicken king gets up early, sings loudly and wakes people up from their sleep. People are very grateful for the work of King Chicken, and decided to ask the Jade Emperor to regard the chicken as the zodiac. However, at that time, the standard for the Jade Emperor to seal the zodiac was that as long as the animals were not birds, horses, cows, sheep and dogs were all involved in the six animals, but there was no chicken, which made the chicken king very anxious. He shouted his neck with red eyes, but there was no result. One night, the chicken king couldn't figure it out, tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep. A wisp of ghosts flew directly to the Heavenly Palace, came to the temple of the Jade Emperor, and cried to the Jade Emperor, saying that every morning, he woke up all beings, but he was not allowed to be selected for the zodiac. I really don't understand. Say that finish, tears flow down. The Jade Emperor thought that the work of Chicken King was really great, and the standard of choosing the zodiac was really wrong, so he picked a flower in front of the temple and put it on his head as a reward. King Chicken woke up and found that there was really a red flower on his head, so he wore it to see the four heavenly kings. The four heavenly kings recognized that it was the jade emperor's "royal furnace red flower" and knew that the jade emperor valued the chicken king, so they made an exception and let the chicken king participate in the zodiac competition. On the day of competing for the zodiac, the chicken and the dog got up at the same time and went hand in hand. When approaching the Heavenly Palace, the chicken was afraid that the dog would be caught first, and even flew to the front. The dog was eager to catch up, but it never caught up. The result was behind the chicken. From then on, dogs have no good feelings for chickens, and they chase them when they see them. Until today, the phenomenon of "dogs driving chickens away" is still visible. As for the chicken, it still blushes every morning and wears a beautiful big red flower on its head.

Legend has it that when the Jade Emperor chose twelve kinds of animals as the Zodiac, all the animals wanted to be Zodiac and were named gods. Animals try their best to show their advantages. I want to prove to the jade emperor that I am a powerful assistant of mankind. Not only that, animals also want to put their place in front, so they are arguing about who has made great contributions to mankind. . . . Cats and dogs are closely related to people. The cat thinks that the dog eats too much and lies at the door all day. Cats think that dogs eat too much and lie at the door all day without any contribution. Dogs think that cats only eat delicious food and do nothing all day. It's just chanting to scare mice, which doesn't contribute much. They argued endlessly, so they went to the Jade Emperor to judge. The Jade Emperor asked the dog, "How much do you eat for a meal?" The dog honestly replied, "I watch the door and the garden every day, one pot at a time." The Jade Emperor asked the cat again, "How much do you eat for a meal?" The cat had a brainwave and said, "I can chant Buddhist scripture, catch mice and eat a lamp for every meal." The cat just wants to tell the jade emperor skillfully, not just eat a lamp. " He will earn his own living and catch mice to eat, so his contribution will be greater than that of dogs for a while. After listening to the dog and the cat, the Jade Emperor came to the conclusion that the cat eats less and does more, and contributes more than the dog. When the dog heard this, he was very angry. He felt that the cat had hit himself with a disgraceful lie, so he scolded and chased the cat. The cat knows it's wrong, running all the way. When he got home, he didn't dare to show up and hid outside. Taking advantage of the cat's avoidance, the dog quickly took the chicken to the Heavenly Palace, and the chicken flew in front of the dog. The cat hiding in the dark for a long time didn't see the dog's shadow, and only after it came out did it know that the dog was in line first. It quickly flew to the Heavenly Palace, behind the chicken. Unexpectedly, the mouse played a trick, hiding in the horns and becoming an animal, but the cat became an animal. From then on, cats hated mice and killed them when they saw them. Although the dog became an animal sign, he was honest and upright, but he never forgave the cat and chased it when he saw it, which is still the case today. In real life, dogs are the closest friends of human beings. Since ancient times, human beings have domesticated dogs to serve themselves, catching prey, guarding their homes, guarding farmland for grazing and patrolling mountains. For people to watch. Dogs are not only human's closest companions. It is also the most loyal partner of mankind. Under no circumstances will a dog betray its master. However, the dog has won the trust of human beings with its loyalty, and it is indisputable that it is a human animal.

Pig is one of the six animals, and the relationship between China people and pigs is extraordinary. Most people get their meat from pigs. The whole body of a pig is a treasure for people to adopt. As a big agricultural country, pigs have an indissoluble bond with hundreds of millions of farmers. People recommend twelve kinds of animals as the zodiac, and naturally they will use the animals closest to their lives as representatives. Of course, it is natural for pigs to become zodiac animals. There is also a folklore about pigs becoming zodiac animals. In ancient times, there was a gentleman who was rich and prolific and had no children under his knees. Who knows that when I was near the flower, I got a son. The family is happy, relatives and friends * * *, and there is a big banquet outside to celebrate the successors. On the occasion of the holidays, a fortune teller came to see the child, and when he saw that the child had a wide forehead, a big face, wide ears, a full heaven and a fat body in vain, he asserted that the child must be a rich man. The fat boy was born in happiness, but he was small in happiness. From an early age, he only knew how to reach out with clothes, how to make a living, how to make a living and how to farm. He just spent a lot of time loafing around, thinking that his fate was fixed and he was extremely rich and didn't have to work hard. I didn't know that when children grew up, their parents died, their wealth declined, their land was sold, and their servants were scattered. The fat boy continued to spend money like water until he finally starved to death in his room. After his death, the fat boy still lingered on, complaining to the underworld, saying that he was born rich and could not die so miserably. Yan took the ghost to the jade emperor in heaven and asked him to arbitrate. The jade emperor called the kitchen god on earth. When asked how the man with a rich face starved to death in the room, the chef released the fat boy from his study and research. When the Jade Emperor heard this, he was furious and told the officers to obey the order and told Fat Boy to wait for his life. The Jade Emperor said, "Although you are lucky, you are lazy, so you are punished as a pig to eat coarse chaff." This period of time coincides with the choice of the zodiac in Tiangong. The official in this heavenly palace listened to "eating coarse chaff" as "being a zodiac". Immediately put the fat man back to reality. From then on, the fat man became a pig and ate coarse chaff, which became the zodiac. Another said that pigs became the zodiac by their own efforts. On the day when the zodiac was arranged in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor stipulated that it was necessary to arrive at the Heavenly Palace at a certain time, and the first zodiac was regarded as the zodiac. Knowing that he was stupid and walked slowly, the pig got up in the middle of the night and hurried to queue up to do the zodiac. Because of the long distance and many obstacles, the pig climbed to the worse gate very hard, but the time for arranging the zodiac animals has passed, but the pig begged and begged, and so did the other six animals. Finally, he moved his mind and put the pig into the worse gate, becoming the last zodiac sign. In this way, horses, cows, sheep, chickens, dogs and pigs have all become human zodiac signs.

Zodiac has always been the most traditional culture in China with a long history.
