Hou Yi Shoots the SunsLong long ago, there were ten suns in the sky. They took turns to shine on the earth, but one day, all ten suns appeared at the same time. The heat was so intense that the earth became extremely dry, the rivers dried up, and plants withered. People and animals were suffering a lot.There was a brave and excellent archer named Hou Yi. Seeing people's miserable situation, he decided to help them. He took his magic bow and a bag of arrows.Hou Yi aimed at the suns one by one and shot the arrows. With each shot, a sun fell from the sky. One after another, nine suns were shot down. Only one sun was left in the sky.The earth became cool again. The rivers began to flow, and plants started to grow. People could live a normal life again. They were very grateful to Hou Yi for his great deed. From then on, the single sun has been shining on the earth, bringing warmth and light to all living things.
