Legend of Shenyang
it is said that after Huang taiji rebuilt Shenyang city, all trades and industries flourished in the city, with rows of houses and merchants. However, on a summer night, the weather was so sultry that people couldn't stand it, so they went out in twos and threes to relax and chat. Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and the stars were not seen in a daze. There was a foul smell in the air, which made everyone who smelled it slowly fall asleep. When I woke up, the sun was shining, and people found that the baby boy and the beautiful young woman in the city were gone. For a time, people searched for wives and children, called their sisters and asked their sisters, and Shenyang city became a mess. Slowly, news came out that the scorpion essence had come out of Nine Doors. That night, it stood upright on the city, releasing poisonous fog all over the sky, making people fall asleep, and then a demon wind blew away the beautiful women and baby boys in the city. In this way, Shenyang, which is in good health, has become very scary.
There lived a family in the city whose owner was Ji Yaozu, who is said to be a descendant of Zhou Wuwang Ji Fa. This family named Ji gave birth to a son in the summer of this year, just in time for the birth of scorpion essence in the city. The neighbors have all moved away, leaving this family named Ji in a state of anxiety because the housewife can't move home before she gives birth. When the family was sad, a monk came at noon one day. Although Ji Yaozu was full of sorrow, he did not dare to neglect the monk and received him warmly. The monk asked, "There are ten rooms and nine empty rooms in Shengjing, and it's deserted. I wonder what happened?" Ji Yaozu told the monk about the scorpion essence in the city and the fact that every family left their homes to take refuge. The monk laughed and said, "Don't worry, benefactor. Since your son was born this year, he is supposed to be a chicken and your family name is Ji. Chickens can eat scorpions. Maybe it is God's will that makes your son save the people from disasters and shine your door. " As soon as Heshang's voice fell, he saw a child running out of the room, the son of Ji Yaozu, with a red Chinese-style chest covering on his chest. Before Ji Yaozu could speak, the monk picked up the child and drove off in a cool breeze.
that night. Scorpion essence is firmly established in Jiumen City, and poisonous fog has enveloped Shengjing City. Suddenly there was a flash of golden light, and a big cock with a golden tail and a red crown screamed, flapped its wings and flew to the tower, fighting with the scorpion essence. I saw a strong wind and dark sky over Shengjing. The golden rooster fought with scorpion essence all night, and finally pecked the scorpion essence to death and swallowed it. Then he rang three times, flew down the tower, and became a child in a red Chinese-style chest covering again. At this time, all the cocks in the city flew out and headed for Jiumen. All the scorpions in the brick door were pecked out, and all the women and children who were photographed by scorpion essence ran out of the scorpion hole and returned to their homes. Shengjing city slowly recovered its former prosperity. Just because a rooster saved the whole city, people especially love chickens, and every family keeps chickens, especially the big rooster with red crown and long tail.
