Do you know why the cuttlefish is called a black squid? Let me tell you a little secret: all those ancient myths and legends were real. The Moon Boat, Nüwa creating humanity, the Battle of Banquan, the Battle of Zhuolu, Kui's hide drum and the Thunder God's hammer, Kuafu chasing the sun, Gonggong crashing into Mount Buzhou in a fit of rage, Xingtian dancing with shield and axe, Nüwa mending the sky, Houyi shooting down nine of the ten suns, Heng'e flying to the moon (that's right, not Chang'e. Chang'e was a name altered by that rascal Liu Heng of the Western Han), and the Cowherd and Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge... And they are all connected to the tale of Chasing the Moon Through the Rainbow Clouds. Believe it or not, I believe it.
