Since the history of Chinese New Year is very long, there are many stories about it. Now I introduce two more typical legends to you, I hope you like it.
A long, long time ago, there was a monster called "Xi" every night on the last day of the year, it came to people's homes with a branch cover, plagued the people, people were miserable, after the fairy world knew about this, on the evening of the last day of the year, sent a fairy called "Empty Trembling Year" to help people defeat "Xi", and then Nian and people celebrated the victory together on the night of the banquet, and celebrated until the ugly time of the first day of the new year, "Nian" taught people several ways to scare away "Xi" when he left. "Xi" is afraid of the "crackling" sound of burning bamboo, and is afraid of red. So people use burning bamboo, sticking red paper, hanging red lanterns and other methods to scare away the "evening" on this day.
In order to commemorate the "year" and help people defeat the "eve", every day before eating Chinese New Year's Eve, they have to go to welcome the "year", which is the traditional "New Year's Eve" that is still circulating in some places, and call this night "Chinese New Year's Eve".
There is also a legend that Nian is a villain in this story. Legend has it that in ancient times, our ancestors were threatened by one of the most ferocious beasts. This beast screams"years"In winter, when there is a shortage of food in the mountains, it will break into the village and hunt people and livestock, and the people will be in fear all day.
people"years"After many years of struggle, people found that they were afraid of three things, red color, fire, and sound. So in the winter, people hung red mahogany boards on their doors, lit fires at the door, and stayed up all night, knocking and knocking. That night,"years"When I broke into the village, I saw the red and the fire in my house, and when I heard the sound of the earth-shattering, I was so frightened that I ran back to the mountains and never dared to come out again.
As the night passed, people congratulated each other, and everyone made a noise, drank and feasted, and celebrated the victory.
In order to commemorate this victory, every winter time in the future, every household will paste red paper couplets on the door, electric lanterns, gongs and drums, and set off firecrackers and fireworks; At night, an all-night vigil; The next day, they congratulated each other early in the morning. In this way, it is passed down from generation to generation, and it becomes"Chinese New Year"。
