3. Customs and Excise Department

Lunar New Year is a traditional grand festival in China, which I believe is unknown to all people in China. However, celebrating the Lunar New Year in Hong Kong is completely different from the traditional ones in terms of customs and atmosphere.

In recent years, few Hong Kong people put up Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures at home during the Lunar New Year. On the contrary, they posted "Prosperous Business" and "Safe Access" in some shops or homes. Even so, the original intention of posting Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures is the same as that of posting Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures. I hope everything will be smooth and safe in the coming year.

In addition, lion dances and dragon lanterns will also appear in some villages and villages in the New Territories. It is difficult to see large-scale lion dances and dragon lanterns on the streets of urban areas in the New Year. As for setting off firecrackers and firecrackers, it is forbidden in Hong Kong. However, since 1982, a grand fireworks display has been held in Victoria Harbour every year on the second night of the Lunar New Year, which has been a program to welcome the Spring Festival for more than ten years.

Hong Kong is known as a "gourmet paradise". There are many customs about eating during the Spring Festival, and most families will have a "reunion dinner" during the Spring Festival, usually at home, and the whole family will get together for dinner on New Year's Eve. I believe that the first choice for after-dinner programs is to visit the flower market. During the Lunar New Year, there are many flower markets in Hong Kong and Kowloon, among which the flower market in Victoria Park is the largest and most lively. Hong Kong people are used to visiting the flower market after dinner. On New Year's Eve, people are crowded and everyone will spend the holidays together.

The happiest thing about spending the Lunar New Year in Hong Kong is to "benefit" the children. Laughter can be heard everywhere during the Spring Festival. "Li" was originally a kind of "good thing", based on good luck, and also became an indispensable custom with relatives during the Spring Festival.

4. Macau Customs

The old customs in Macao are very unique. "Xie Zao" is one of the most traditional China customs preserved in Macau. On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Macao people call it "Xie Zao". According to the tradition in China, Macau people also give the kitchen god sugar, saying that it is to paste the mouth of the kitchen god with sugar, so as not to speak ill of him in front of the Jade Emperor. I saw a picture of Santa Claus on the stove of a Macao family in Flower Street, Macau. Strangely, the portrait of Santa Claus was affixed with a couplet that read "Heaven speaks well and returns home with clothes on".

Macao people celebrate the New Year from the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, which is a homophonic word in Cantonese. Most business owners invite their employees to have a "reunion dinner" at the end of the year to show their prosperity and good luck. From the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, we can truly feel the annual flavor of Macao.

5. Customs of Spring Festival in Taiwan Province Province.

The Spring Festival is a traditional folk festival with a long history of the Chinese nation. Taiwan Province Province, which is separated from Fujian Province by water, has the same history, culture, customs, living habits and kinship with Chinese mainland, especially in southern Fujian, so the Spring Festival customs of the people on the island are naturally similar to those of Chinese mainland.

Because the ancestors of Bao Dao residents (mostly Minnan and Hakka) went to Taiwan for development with a long history and experienced vicissitudes, the Spring Festival customs there gradually formed some unique patterns and colors.

6. Interesting Jiangsu Spring Festival customs

During the Spring Festival, in addition to posting Spring Festival couplets, hanging New Year pictures, observing the new year, dancing lions and paying New Year greetings, Jiangsu folks have some unique customs, just like the whole country. Now the number of collections is for readers to see.

Suzhou people cooked water chestnuts in New Year's Eve meals and dug them out when eating, which is called "digging gold ingots". When visiting relatives and friends, you should put two green olives in your tea, which is called "gold ingot tea". Congratulations on getting rich.

On the first morning of the New Year, people in Wujin hang portraits of their ancestors in nave, offering them tea fruits and rice cakes, and the whole family pays New Year greetings in turn. This is called "the shadow of worshipping God", and they are not allowed to sweep the floor from home, for fear of sweeping out "wealth" and "wishful thinking", so they can only sweep from the outside to the inside.

Jiangning people have the custom of "knocking on the drums" during the Spring Festival. The flag is open, and the gongs and drums are everywhere to add fun. On the third day, "playing the night drum", on the seventh day, "playing seven drums", and on the thirteenth to fifteenth days, the atmosphere was warm.

Nantong people have the custom of planting sesame stalks, holly and cypress branches at home or in front of the church, which means that life is blooming every day and the seasons are evergreen.

Huaiyin people also have the custom of "roasting the head wind" for their children on the sixth day. At night, I took my children to the fields to light torches to drive away evil spirits for them. While roasting, I sang: "Roast my head, wake up, roast my feet, keep my feet straight, roast my stomach without diarrhea, roast all over my body, and the illness will never be seen again."

On the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, Wuxi fishermen took a boat to the western hills to worship the Wang Yu Temple, praying for the blessing of the water god and offering sacrifices to the Ao Jing Giant Buddha, which is called "Shang?" After the Wang Yu Temple was demolished, this custom gradually became indifferent.

During the Spring Festival, there are still many taboos in the old customs of Jiangsu, such as not moving scissors on the first day of the New Year to avoid disputes with each other; Don't move the kitchen knife to avoid being killed; Do not eat porridge, afraid of going out in the rain; Don't sweep the floor, afraid of sweeping away wealth and so on. With the popularization of scientific knowledge, many unscientific customs are gradually forgotten; Healthy and beneficial entertainment and leisure activities continue.

8. Daur nationality: annual height

The Daur people in the north have the habit of visiting the New Year. During the Spring Festival, people wear holiday clothes, visit each other and congratulate each other. Every family has steamed cakes, and as soon as New Year's greetings come in, the host treats them with steamed cakes. "Gao" is homophonic with "Gao" in Chinese, and treats each other like cakes, which means that the living standard in the new year will be further improved. During the festival, Daur people also held songs and dances and sports activities, which lasted for half a month.

9. Mongolians: There is endless wine and meat.

The Mongolian people in the north celebrate the Spring Festival is another scene. Before the festival, every household prepared rams, various dairy products and several jars of wine. On New Year's Eve, people put on beautiful Mongolian robes, and the whole family sat among them to welcome the New Year. Eat and drink at midnight. Usually, you should eat and drink more. The more wine and meat left, the better. This symbolizes that there is no shortage of wine and meat in the new year. On the morning of the first day of junior high school, men and women wore all kinds of clothes, rode on war horses, and rushed to "Haote" (villages and towns) in groups of three and five, stringing together yurts one by one. When stringing bags, you should kowtow to the elders first, and then the son-in-law of the host family will toast the guests who come to string bags, and people will sing and dance.

X. Zhuang nationality: welcoming heroes

Zhuang people living in the south of China call Spring Festival "New Year's Day". On this day, people should congratulate each other no matter who they meet when they go out, thinking that this year can be auspicious. Zhuang people also have a custom of providing for the aged, which Zhuang people call "Chi Li Festival". The "Food Festival" is on the 30th of this month. It is said that more than 65,438+000 years ago, a Zhuang peasant armed force returned home in triumph after fighting against foreign invasion. At this time, the Spring Festival has passed. In order to welcome them, the Zhuang people celebrated for them on the 30th of this month.

1 1. Buyi people: girls grab the first water.

Buyi people living in the southwest frontier of China hold vigils every New Year's Eve. At dawn, the girls scrambled to fetch water outside the house. Whoever carries water first is the most hardworking girl. The Jingpo people there like to hold shooting activities before the Spring Festival, and the girls are the organizers and referees of this activity. They hung the embroidered purse on the bamboo pole with thread and swayed from side to side at the top of the tree, asking the young man to make a move. The girls will give the wine as a prize to whoever hits the wallet first. A wallet usually contains a coin, some millet and some decorative beads as a symbol of happiness.

12. Hani: Swing.

A few days before the Spring Festival, the village where the Hani people live has been very lively, and women are busy with Baba. Baba is a cake made of glutinous rice. The boys are busy chopping bamboo up the mountain, ready to set up a swing. The swings there are more than ten meters high, and the Hani people, regardless of gender, age and age, love to play on swings. During the festival, everyone wears their favorite clothes to swing, showing a lively and harmonious holiday scene everywhere.

Thirteen. Dai people: throwing chaff bags

Young Dai men and women like the game of throwing chaff bags. During the Spring Festival, boys and girls throw chaff bags at each other to see who can catch them accurately. After playing for a certain period of time, the girls quietly grabbed the broadsword, wrapped cloth or tied horse worn by the young man and ran home. If a young man has feelings, follow him. When parents saw their daughter coming back with a headscarf and a good horse, they gave a banquet.

In addition, April 13 every year is the Dai calendar New Year, and it is also the most solemn festival of the Dai people-the Water Splashing Festival. They regard splashing water as a symbol of exorcism and decontamination, and also regard this day as the most beautiful and auspicious day.

14. Gaoshan people: "surround the furnace"

The Gaoshan people who live in Taiwan Province province of China have another taste during the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, a family sits around a round table and eats hot pot, which is called "around the stove". Women who usually don't drink should also take a symbolic sip of wine to show good luck. Vegetables eaten around the stove need not be cut with a knife. After washing, you should cook by roots to show that you wish your parents a long life. If someone at home goes out, you should also leave a seat empty and put this person's clothes on the empty seat to show that the whole family misses him.

15. Manchu: Hanging the national flag for the New Year.

Manchu is divided into four flags: red, yellow, blue and white. During the Spring Festival, people with red flags hang red flags, people with yellow flags hang yellow flags, people with blue flags hang blue flags, and people with white flags hang white flags. These flags are beautifully patterned and brightly colored, symbolizing the auspicious beginning of the year.

During the festival, boys set off firecrackers in groups, or take various homemade wooden sledges and swish on hills and ice. Girls and young daughters-in-law wear newly-made flowery clothes and play Galahad (kneecaps of pigs or cows) in groups of three or five. From the night of the first day to the fifth day, people also volunteered to organize yangko dancing to celebrate the New Year. A strong yangko team not only dances in this village, but also dances in other villages. Onlookers are often so happy that they forget fatigue and cold. There are even enthusiastic audiences-they follow the yangko team from village to village and don't come back until dawn.

Sixteen years old. Bai nationality: "Let it rise"

During the Chinese New Year, the Bai compatriots in Yunnan have a celebration called "Flying High". The so-called "soaring" is to use the whole big bamboo and put gunpowder in the cracks of the bamboo. After lighting, the whole bamboo can collapse into the sky and become a veritable "soaring". In some areas, Bai compatriots, like Miao and Zhuang, have the custom of "throwing hydrangeas" from Spring Festival to Lantern Festival. Anyone who can't catch the hydrangea should give each other a souvenir. Those who concede goals many times and can't exchange souvenirs show that they have accepted each other's love.

17. Dong nationality: Lusheng Society

During the Spring Festival, a mass activity called "Dong Year" (also called Lusheng Festival) prevailed among Dong compatriots in Guizhou and Hunan. This activity is similar to the "group worship" of the Han nationality, but it is more joyful and enthusiastic than the "group worship". This kind of activity is usually held by two villages. The two teams formally held a Song Lusheng and Dance Competition in the square. At this time, the audience of the two villages danced with the music and enjoyed themselves.

18. Yi people: Tiaohu

During the Spring Festival, the Maidichong Yi people in Shuangbai County, Yunnan Province have a special custom of "Jumping Tiger Festival". On the eighth day of the first month, adult men in the village gathered at the site of the earth temple behind the village to kill dogs and offer sacrifices to "rice" ("rice" means earth, "rice" means master and rice means god), and then "Bimo" in the village offered sacrifices to the earth god and invited the tiger god. Eight villagers danced as tigers. "Tiger" has towering ears, thick tail and tiger stripes all over the body. They drew a Chinese character "Wang" on their foreheads and hung a big bronze bell around their necks, which was very dignified. After Bimo said a farewell ceremony and invited the Tiger God, King Tiger led all the tigers into the village. Throughout the Tiger Jumping Festival, the whole village was immersed in a happy atmosphere of welcoming tigers, sending tigers, watching tigers jump and exorcising evil spirits. The local people are convinced that only through the annual traditional jumping tiger, offering sacrifices to the tiger god and praying for the blessings of their ancestors can all the villagers have a bumper harvest every year, a prosperous population and a happier life.

Nineteen. Sani: Eat dumplings.

On New Year's Eve, Sani is called "thinking period". On New Year's Eve, it is very solemn to worship ancestors and eat New Year's Eve. In the afternoon, green branches are planted in front of every house, and a straw hat is hung on the branches. This is a silent notice: please don't enter! No talking! Even people at home are not allowed to talk loudly.

There is an interesting phenomenon in Sani language: "Tangyuan" and "Chinese New Year" are the same word, called "Kuanzima". Because we must eat glutinous rice balls during the Spring Festival. For half a month from the first day of the first month, people were immersed in joy. A bonfire party was held in the evening of the first day of junior high school, with folk songs duet and three-stringed Hu solo, which was simple and lyrical. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.

Sacrificing the mountain gods on the second day and sending Mars on the fourth day is to drive away disasters and show the strength of human beings.

On the afternoon of the second day of the Spring Festival every year, farmers take the cow out, walk around the center of the village several times, and put flowers tied with red cloth on its forehead to show respect for its one-year contribution. I also fed it rice and fat pork to show my comfort to my close friends.

Sani people have activities of offering sacrifices to their ancestors from New Year's Eve to the fifth day. From their admiration and nostalgia for their ancestors, we can find the cohesion of this nation and the beautiful things in traditional morality.

Taohuayuan is connected to Wuqiangxi and Wuling. According to legend, the ancient Qin people fled from years of war and set up a refuge for the meritorious military service. They work in this isolated place, support themselves, reproduce and become a unique feng shui. Today, the ancient folk customs here still show her past feelings as a paradise.

Taohuayuan has Qinren Cave, and there is a village called Sanhe Village in Qinren Cave. There are dozens of families in Sanhe village, most of whom are surnamed Qin, so this village is also called Qin Rencun. Are these villagers surnamed Qin descendants of ancient Qin people who went into caves to avoid chaos? No one has done any specific textual research. Anyway, the word "Qin" runs through ancient times and modern times, and their customs of food, clothing, housing and transportation are really different from those of modern society.

Clothes: In the past, people's clothes here were home-made homespun. Every family has spinning wheels and looms, producing cotton by itself, spinning and weaving, and the woven homespun is dyed blue or blue or gray or purple with plant dyes. Most clothes are made by ourselves. The dyed homespun is cut into pieces and then sewn together by hand. There is also a tailor who makes clothes, a gray bag, a few needles, a few twisted wires, and a pig iron similar to aluminum pot today, all of which are their tools. The style of clothes is men's jacket. A woman is a big dress with monochrome cloth buttons. Pants are big crotch pants, 4 feet waist, folded in front of the stomach, and then tied with a cloth belt. Nowadays, the clothes of young people in the village are similar to those of foreigners, but many old people still wear double-breasted clothes, big clothes and open-backed pants. However, the cloth of old people's clothes is no longer woven from soil, but selected from the market. Walking in the village, you can still find wooden spinning wheels and looms. Although these are idle and no longer used, they also show history. Even today, when sewing machines are widely used, there are still local tailors carrying iron and grey bags in the village.

Food: of course, it is the staple food rice, which is similar to the villagers outside the cave. The "food" here refers to the tools for processing rice. The tools used by villagers in Qincun to process rice are plates, stones and windmills. The dish is round and has two plates. The lower fan is fixed on a wooden frame with a hardwood shaft in the middle, and the upper fan rotates on the lower fan around the wooden shaft. The friction surfaces of the upper and lower fans are regularly embedded with many hardwood pieces as teeth, and the teeth are rammed with loess. The function of vegetables is to remove the rough shells from the shells. When vegetables are processed, rice husks are piled in the container of the upper fan, and the upper fan is manually driven to rotate. Through the friction of wood teeth, rice husk spills rough brown rice from the gap between the upper and lower surfaces. Brown rice is processed into cooked rice by stone chips. Most of the rice that villagers eat now is processed by machines, but there are workshops in the village that can process rice for villagers in ancient ways. In fact, some villagers use barnyard grass and stone piles to process rice in their workshops. They (especially the elderly) think it is more fragrant and softer than rice processed by machines.

Live: In the past, villagers' houses were all bamboo sheds. The huts are built on one side of the mountain. They are independent. It is indeed "chicken and dog hear each other." The room is very simple, with stones as benches, boards as beds, gourds (commonly known as lugua) cut into spoons, and bricks as bases for cooking stoves. Now huts have been replaced by wooden houses. The wooden house is full of small blue tiles and white walls, and it still has an ancient legacy. Although every household has a TV set and refrigerator, cutting the gourd ladle is in the same strain.

Ok: Although Qinren Village is close to the national highway, there are no roads in the village, and rural roads crisscross. These rural roads are not superior to cement roads and asphalt roads, but they do have their advantages. It smells of green grass and soil moisture, which makes people feel warm and comfortable when they step on it barefoot, and makes people feel the beating of the earth.

Banna dwellings

Residential architecture is an integral part of a nation's traditional culture in a certain social and historical period, and it is also the epitome of traditional culture. The residential buildings of Dai, Hani, Bulang, Jinuo and Lahu nationalities in Xishuangbanna have formed many different forms and architectural styles due to the influence of natural environment such as climate, altitude, topography, building materials and social environment such as population, economy, religion, science and technology and ideology.

Sangyamu Beitou Zhulou

In ancient times, the Dai family had no house to live in, so they had to live in caves. A man named Paya Sang Mu learned how to build a house before he taught everyone how to build a bamboo house in A Dai.

Second, it rained heavily, and Paya Sang Mu hid under a big tree for shelter. He saw that there was a big dustpan next to the taro leaf fragments to keep out the rain, and the leaves were dry below. He thought that people could also build a shed with taro leaves to shelter from the rain, so he built a shed with branches and covered it with leaves and thatch to form a flat-topped shed. He moved out of the cave and lived in a small room.

Soon, there was a heavy rain. Leaves and thatch couldn't stop the rain. The rain stopped. The house kept leaking and there was no dry place. Paya Sang Mu had to move back to the cave.

Once, Paya Sammu went hunting in the mountains with a dog. It began to rain heavily again. He hid under the tree roots to avoid the rain, while the dog sat on the ground, his front legs held high and his tail dragged on the ground. Rain ran down the sloping dog hair, but the ground on the dog's chest was dry. Paya Sang Mu thought of building a house with a sloping roof to shelter from the rain. He cut off four branches, two high and two low, planted them on the ground, and built a sloping roof with leaves and thatch, which was high in the front and low in the back, allowing rain to flow down the slope. Because the house was built by learning to observe the posture of the dog sitting on the ground, Sang Mu called the house "Dumas", which means "the dog's head is covered with a berth". Sang Mu moved out of the cave and lived in Dumas. It's raining again, and the rain is running down the sloping roof. The room is very dry. Later, it was windy and rainy, and the raindrops were blown into oblique rain by the wind and floated into the house. The rainwater that flowed to the ground also flowed into the house, and the house was filled with water again. Paya Sang Mu thinks Dumas is still not good, but she can't figure out what kind of house to build.

King Paya Ying was very moved to see Paya Sang Mu constantly building houses and decided to give him some advice. One day, it was raining, and the heavenly king Pai Yaying became a beautiful phoenix and flew to the world. It landed in front of Paya Sang Mu and said to him, "Look at my two wings, can they keep out the wind and rain?" Phoenix stands with two long feet and its wings spread slightly to both sides, forming a "middle" posture. Paya Sang Mu was taken aback when she heard that Phoenix could talk. He folded his hands and bowed to the phoenix, carefully observing how the rain flowed down his wings, neck hair and tail. The ground below Phoenix is dry. Paya Sang Mu looked at the bottom and thought, determined to build a house like a phoenix standing in the rain.

Paya Sang Mu cut many trees into columns and thatched grass into rows of straw. The house stands at the foot of the column and is divided into two floors. People live upstairs and won't get wet. The roof is like a phoenix spreading its wings, with a building on the left and a building on the right, and the front building and the back building are all inclined, which can block the rain in all directions. This tall bamboo building can shelter from the wind and rain. Sang Mu lives in it, which is very comfortable. He named the house "Hate" (Dai language: Phoenix takes off).

After Paya Sang Mu's bottom cover became "hate", Dai family came to learn from him to build a house. Since then, the Dai bamboo house has been built village by village, and people have moved into the high-legged bamboo house from caves.

After Dai lived in Zhulou, he never forgot Paya Sang Mu, the founder of Zhulou. In order to commemorate the achievements of Bayasang, the Dai people changed the name of this building from "hate" to "hate Bayasang", which has been in use ever since.

Zanha sings exorcism and congratulates the new house.

In Dai villages, no matter which new house is completed, activities to congratulate the new house will be held, among which Zanha (singer) will be invited to sing to congratulate the new house. Do you know the origin of this custom? It comes from an old legend.

In ancient times, there lived a dragon in the river. This dragon visits the Heavenly Palace once a year. The dragon climbed into the sky with a straight and tall buried Bona tree. This tree grew on a big mound on the bank of the river. Xiaolong sent a snake and a demon, Ushala, to guard the tree for him.

One summer noon, the sun was steaming the earth, and the earth hole where the Wushalabing couple were hiding was as hot as a big fire pit. The snake demon couple thought that no one would come to cut down trees on such a hot day, so they climbed out of the cave and took a bath in the river.

Just then, a man named Paya Sang Mu braved the heat and went up the mountain to cut down the pillar of a new house. He saw the tall and straight Bonner tree buried in the ground on the mound, which was really the best wood, so he cut it down and carried it back to be the pillar of the new house.

Ushalabing, the snake demon, and his wife took a long bath in the river before returning to the earth cave where they lived. They found that the climbing dragon tree on the mound had been cut off, and they were too scared to speak for a long time. After a long time, they decided to get the tree back. The male snake demon said to the female snake demon, "Look east, I will look west. Anyway, I want to get the Dragon King ladder back!" "

The male snake demon climbed about one hundred yards to the west, and the female snake demon climbed about one hundred yards to the east. They searched for three days, but they couldn't find the tree where the dragon climbed to heaven.

After the two snakes and demons met, they didn't dare to stay at home for a moment, so they quickly went to the north and south separately to find them. After climbing south for about 200 times, the female snake demon saw a village. I saw a group of noisy people in the stockade, shouting loudly that a new house was being built. Seeing that there were many people in the stockade, the female snake demon got into the grass, observed the new house being built, and carefully examined every piece of wood in the new house. She suddenly found that the pillar standing in the middle of the new house was the one she and her husband were looking for. The gorgon hurried home and told her husband what she had found. Hearing this, the male snake demon said happily, "OK, have a good rest in the afternoon. After dark, we will pull out that pillar and plant it on the mound. "

It was getting dark, and the female snake demon and the male snake demon climbed into the village together. When they found the new house, they entangled the pillar up and down, trying to pull it out and drag it away But the root end of the wooden column is buried deep in the soil hole, and there are many cross bars in the hole of the body, which is very strong. They couldn't pull out the post until dawn.

At dawn, the Paya Sangmu family moved their luggage out of the old house and wanted to move to a new home. When they entered the new house, they found two big snakes wrapped around the post. The two big snakes were not afraid at all when they saw people coming, but they were still tightly wrapped around the wooden post. Paya Sang Mu picked up a bamboo pole to hit the two snakes. The two snakes did not escape, but climbed up along the post, wrapped around the top of the wooden post and never came down.

Just as Baya Sang Mu was at a loss, the villagers came together with two Zanha to congratulate the completion of the new house. Zanha walked onto the bamboo building and sang several songs of blessing, which made the villagers jump for joy. Cheers shook the earth, and two snakes wrapped around the top of the pillar fell to the ground, climbed out of the house and hid in the grass. The Paya Sammu family moved into a new house.

From then on, whenever the new house of the Dai people is completed, the host will hold a banquet to invite the villagers to congratulate the completion of the new house, and must invite Zanha to sing, drive away the evil spirits in the house with songs, and let the new house owner be safe and happy.

Animals help Paya Sang Mu build a bamboo building.

On the shelf of Dai bamboo house, there are many parts of animal limbs, such as "dog's back", "egret's wings", "elephant's tongue" and "cat's chin" ... To ask the origin of these names, we have to listen to this ancient legend.

Paya Sang Mu used to hunt for a living. She likes dogs, cats, birds and animals very much. Later, he raised all the birds and animals he caught. Near his home, there are nests of birds and beasts everywhere.

One year, it rained heavily for several months in Bahners, and the flat became Wang Yang, and the bamboo house at the bottom of Paya Sang Mu was flooded. He quickly tied a bamboo raft, propped up a bamboo pole and escaped in the flood. Many animals struggled desperately in the flood, and birds in the sky were knocked down by heavy rain. Paya Sang Mu took pity on these animals and birds, rescued them from the flood with bamboo rafts, and transported them to the high slopes where the flood could not reach and released them.

I don't know how many days and nights passed, the wind stopped, the rain stopped, the flood receded and the earth reappeared. Paya Sang Mu returned to her original place of residence, and the bamboo building was washed away by the flood. Because he wanted to build a new house, he began to chop wood, split pillars and cut thatch. Knowing that the rescuer was building a new house, the animals rescued by Paya Sang Mu came from all directions to help him. After discussing with each other, the animals are willing to take something from themselves and put it on the bottom roof of Sangmu's house to help him build a new house quickly in return for saving his life. The little monkey gave his neck and head to the bottom of Sang Mu to make a "ring pile" (wooden hammer), the elephant gave his tongue to make a "peace palm" (bamboo building piece), the leech gave his body to the bottom of Sang Mu to make a grass raft, the tortoise was willing to lie at the foot of the stairs to make a "ding bu" (bamboo building piece), the old dragon was willing to make stairs, and the tuanyu gave his turtle shell to the bottom of Paya Sang Mu to make a fence. Swallows and sparrows flew to the mountain to build a thatched roof for Paya Sang Mu ... All the animals gave part of their bodies to the Hsinchu Building in Sang Mu, Paya, and made contributions to him. Thanks to the full help of the animals, Paya Sang Mu soon built a bamboo building.

From then on, Paya Sang Mu wrote all the contributions of animals on the design of bamboo buildings and passed them on to future generations. As a result, names such as "dog's back", "cat's chin", "elephant tongue" and "egret's wings" appeared on the roof truss of the bamboo building. People often carve faucets on the stairs of the bamboo building to commemorate the dedication of the old dragon. Honestly, I posted it from somewhere else! But I think there should be something you want in it!
