This Star is a bit Salty

Li Han thought this way, and then suddenly heard a bear kid calling "Brother Han".

Looking back, I saw a group of bear kids in the village running over from a distance carrying school bags.

It seems that the bear children are back from school. Seeing Li Han, the bear children were all very happy.

After the bear children ran up, a bear child named Dong Zi said, "Now Brother Han is here. We can just ask Brother Han the question just now."

Another bear child named Liangzi said: "Okay, I say you are wrong, but you still don't believe it."

"Huh?" Li Han questioned: "What is the problem? Are you two arguing about something just now?"

Dongzi nodded and said, "Brother Han, do you say there is a sheep in the Chinese zodiac?"

"Zodiac signs?" Li Han understood, and smiled: "You are arguing about whether there is a sheep in the zodiac signs?"

Dongzi said, "Yes, Brother Han. I said there is no sheep in the Chinese zodiac, but Liangzi said that there is a sheep."

Liangzi said at this time: "It was originally there. I have an aunt who belongs to the sheep."

Dongzi said, "That must be your memory."

Liangzi said: "Nothing."

The two little guys quarreled again. Li Han smiled a little, a child is a child, and he can fight for any problem.

However, it is not surprising that the two little guys will have a dispute because of this.

Because it is normal for someone to make a mistake.

Everyone knows the Chinese Zodiac, and everyone feels that they know the Chinese Zodiac very well.

But if you really want to say the twelve kinds of animals completely, without checking the information, it really may not be possible for many people to be completely correct.

Everyone feels familiar, but in fact it may not be the case.

For example, I suddenly ask you, is there a sheep in the Chinese zodiac?

There will definitely be many people who are not sure and say, "There should be."

Or just as uncertain as to say, "It doesn't seem to be there."

This is true for adults, let alone two little guys.

Li Han thought about it for a while before he said, "Dongzi, you are wrong with this question. There is indeed a sheep in the Chinese zodiac."

"Yeah!" Ryoko cheered, "I'll just say yes. How about it? Know that you are wrong, right?"

Dongzi said: "Brother Han, there are really sheep? Why don't I have any impression!"

Li Han smiled and said, "Of course it is true. Behind the horse is the sheep."

Dongzi muttered: "Okay."

Next, Liangzi was proud, and Dongzi was depressed. The two little guys' completely different expressions made Li Han look a little funny.

However, when it comes to the Chinese zodiac, it is really interesting.

Looking at the bear children, Li Han said: "We just said that there are sheep in the Chinese zodiac. Now I will ask you one more question."

Hearing what Li Han said, the children all looked at Li Han in an instant, with an expression of great interest.

Liangzi was no longer proud, and Dongzi was no longer depressed.

Li Han said, "Do you guys say there are cats in the Chinese zodiac?"

Cat?

All the bear kids looked positively thinking. After a while, Dongzi said, "There shouldn't be. Right? Brother Han."

Ryoko said, "It seems to have, but it doesn't seem to be. I don't know about this."

Some of the other bear kids said yes, some said no, and some said he didn't know.

After the bear children chatted for a while, Li Han said, “This time it’s Dongzi, Xiaotong, and Xiaowei who are right. There are no cats in the Chinese zodiac.”

"Yeah!" This time Dongzi, Xiaotong, and Xiaodong cheered.

Li Han smiled and continued to ask, "So, do you know why there are no cats?"

why?

At this moment, all the bear children had nothing but staring eyes in a daze.

Where do they know why? Never thought about this problem at all.

Of course, they don't know why it is normal.

Because, it's not just them. In fact, all people don’t know why? I don't know if Li Han has been packaged.

Because the formation of the Chinese zodiac has been very long ago. It has been a long time since it has been able to verify when did it begin to originate?

It can only be traced back to the pre-Qin period when a relatively complete zodiac system existed.

Then in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were already records of zodiac documents that were exactly the same as the current zodiac signs.

So long ago, who knows why there are no cats?

It can only be a more scientific guess. It should be because when the Chinese zodiac was formed, there was no such animal as a domestic cat.

Because the introduction of domestic cats to China is relatively late, it must be later than the formation of the Chinese zodiac.

So, this may explain why there are no cats in the Chinese zodiac?

However, this can only explain why there are no cats? In addition, the animals that do not have it can't be explained.

It can only be speculated that the origin of the Zodiac is related to the worship of animals by people in that period.

These twelve animals are the twelve animals that people worship, and thus gradually formed the twelve zodiac signs.

Of course, why are the zodiac signs of these twelve animals? Although it cannot be explained scientifically.

However, it can be explained by something called "myths and legends".

Why are there no cats? No one knows the reason, but in the world of myths and legends, or in the cultural world of the Chinese zodiac, it has a reason.

Those reasons are often very interesting and have formed various cultures about the Chinese zodiac.

In previous lives, there are very rich records about the culture and legends of the Chinese zodiac.

It contains various records in historical documents, as well as a lot of legends circulating among the people.

Since the formation of these legends, after continuous processing by people in different periods, they have been passed down to this day, and the resources can be said to be quite abundant.

However, this is in a previous life.

This is not the case in this world.

I don't know why, the legends and culture of the Chinese zodiac in this world are rarely passed down to this day.

Li Han suspected that at a certain period in history, due to some special reasons, there was a gap in the cultural inheritance of the legend of the Chinese zodiac.

In other words, there was an interruption in the process of spreading.

Just like Zhuo Wenjun's "Bai Tou Yin" and the story of Liang Zhu have not been passed down.

Why are there no cats in the Chinese zodiac? In the past life, there is a widely circulated legend ~www.ltnovel.com~ which perfectly explains this problem.

However, there does not seem to be that legend in this world.

Maybe it never happened, or it was interrupted at a certain period in history.

This is undoubtedly a very regrettable thing.

Li Han had learned about such a situation accidentally before, but didn't think too much at the time, and then gradually forgot.

Now, listening to the bear children arguing about the Chinese zodiac, Li Han suddenly remembered.

This is why he asks why there are no cats in the Chinese zodiac?

Now that I remembered, tell the children about the legendary story.

Think of it as telling an interesting story to the children.
