It is said that "Kuafu" was originally the name of a giant. From the bloodline point of view, Kuafu people were originally descendants of the Great God and lived on a mountain named "Chengdu Zai Tian" in the far north. They are tall and mighty giants, with two yellow snakes hanging from their ears and two yellow snakes in their hands. It looks terrible, but in fact, they are all gentle and kind, and they are all trying to create a better life.

The weather in the north is cold, the winter is long, and the summer is warm but short. Every day the sun rises in the east, and the snow on the top of the mountain falls in a hurry from the west before it melts. People in Kuafu believe that if the sun can be recycled, it will always be suspended above Chengdu, providing light and heat to the earth. So they chose a hero from their tribe to chase after the sun. His name is Kuafu.

Kuafu was elected, and he was very happy. He is determined to live up to the hopes of the whole family, race against the sun and get it back, so that the cold north can be as warm as Jiangnan. So he strode west, and suddenly, there were thousands of Wan Li. He chased him all the way to the valley, where the sun set and a big red fireball appeared in front of him. He is so excited and excited that he wants to stretch out his huge arms at once and bring the sun back. But he had been running all day, and the burning sun made him thirsty, so he bent down to drink the water from the Yellow River and the Weihe River. The water in the two rivers dried up in an instant, but he still didn't quench his thirst. He ran to the north again to drink the water from the osawa in the north, but he died of thirst before reaching his destination.

Although Kuafu failed, his spirit and perseverance have been praised by people, inspiring many people with lofty ideals to keep forging ahead.

Can Kuafu really achieve the goal of chasing the sun? The answer is no, because he violated the objective law. As we all know, the earth is the only living planet in the solar system, and it cannot emit light by itself. It must be nourished by the light and heat of the sun. The hemisphere of the earth illuminated by the sun is daytime, and the side away from the sun is night. In addition, the earth rotates from west to east, which makes the day and night alternate constantly, so you will see that the sun always rises in the east and sets in the west. The westward movement of the sun seen by Kuafu is actually the result of the earth's rotation.

In addition, the earth revolves around the sun while rotating, and there is an included angle of 66.5 between the earth axis and the orbit. The North Pole always points to Polaris, so that the direct point of the sun only moves between 23.5 south latitude and 23.5 north latitude. In this way, the height of the sun on the earth's surface and the length of day and night are different. So on the surface of the earth, the higher the latitude, the lower the temperature, which means that the north is colder than the south. Therefore, no matter how fast Kuafu runs and how hard he tries, it won't change this fact.

The story of Houyi shooting at the sun:

There are many myths and legends about Hou Yi. According to legend, Hou Yi was a natural archery genius. When he grew up, his arm strength was amazing and his archery was superior. There are 10 suns in the sky. Strong sunlight scorched the earth, crops died, even stones melted, and the sea boiled like boiling water. People can hardly breathe in the scorching sun, and vicious poisonous snakes and beasts take the opportunity to come out and harm human beings. You are very sympathetic to the people in pain and suffering, and you are determined to risk your life to eliminate pesticides for the people. This hero, who is good at archery, chose a highland, bent his bow and took an arrow and shot an arrow at the sky. He only heard a loud noise and a sun was shot out. Hou Yi shot nine arrows in a row, and nine suns set one by one. When he wanted to shoot again, it suddenly occurred to him that without the sun, the earth would be dark and it would be difficult for human beings to survive, so he left the last sun for the benefit of human beings.
