The animal story of the snake, the story of the zodiac of the snake

<> "The snake belongs to one of the twelve zodiac signs, and there are various versions of its zodiac story, and here are a few of them:1Legend has it that in ancient times, there were 12 animals vying for the position of the zodiac, they are the rat, the ox, the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the horse, the sheep, the monkey, the rooster, the dog, and the pig.

Everyone decides to compete to see who comes to the Heavenly Palace first, so as to determine the order of the zodiac. The snake behaved very differently, it hid in the race and waited for the last moment, and when the other animals had already reached the heavenly palace, it suddenly jumped out and completed the last position in the game, successfully obtaining the zodiac. 2.

Another legend says that the snake was originally a god, but because of its greed for a long lifespan, it was descended to the mortal world by the gods, leaving only an ordinary snake body. However, the snake still has the spirit of a fairy, and it glides through the mountains and forests, rescuing many injured animals. Eventually, it was blessed by the heavens and became one of the zodiac signs.

3.There is also a legend about the nature of the snake. Snakes are said to compress their meridians when they stand upright all day, so they are relatively calm and calm.

Due to the snake's excellent crawling skills in the jungle, the magic and resourcefulness of the snake are manifested in the ability to perceive the process of things and deal with sudden events, which has a deterrent effect on the Tanyou. These legends all show the brave and unique qualities of the snake, and can also convey positive beliefs in life to people.

A long, long time ago, snakes and frogs were friends, but snakes had four legs at that time, but frogs had no legs, and crawled on their stomachs, but snakes were too lazy to eat, and frogs were very diligent and not only caught insects for snakes to eat, but also helped people catch pests. So, of course, humans hate snakes and love frogs. Snake:

9-11 a.m. (i.e. "mid-hour"). It is said that at this time, the snake does not hurt people, nor does it wander on the road where people walk, but hides in the grass, so that it belongs to the snake at that time.

When the serpent found that the people hated him, he began to hate people, and he bit people when he saw them, and ate animals when he saw them, and he made the world very uneasy. Seeing this, the land god sued the Heavenly Palace. The Jade Emperor sent the snake to the heavenly palace and persuaded him to change his evil and follow good, but the snake spoke wildly and had no intention of repenting.

The Jade Emperor was furious, and ordered the divine soldiers to cut off the four legs of the snake, so as not to harm people, and since then, the snake has lost its four legs, and the Jade Emperor saw that the frog has merit, and gave the four legs of the snake to the frog.

After the frog has legs, it becomes more diligent. The snake knew his mistakes and was determined to reinvent himself, and also began to eat pests and drag his long body, silently doing good deeds for humans, and the snake also followed the dragon to learn to cure water, and after the snake died, he also dedicated his body to humans, as a medicine to treat many patients. The Jade Emperor saw that the snake knew that it could be changed, and worked hard to make progress, and when he sealed the zodiac, he let it rank behind the dragon and become the zodiac of mankind.

After the snake becomes the zodiac, of course, it does not take the initiative to hurt people, once the evil thoughts germinate, they will turn the evil thoughts into a layer of skin and shed off to show that they are new people. Despite this, it still holds a grudge against the frog for having its four legs, so to this day, snakes bite frogs when they see them. The frog knew that he had taken advantage of the snake, so when he saw the snake, he shivered with fright and hurried away.

Obviously, the snake became the zodiac sign by its own efforts.
