The record of Pangu's creation of the sky was first seen in the Three Kingdoms Wu Kingdom Xu Zheng's " Sanwu Calendar ": "The heaven and earth are as chaotic as chickens, Pangu are born in it. For thousands of years, the heaven and earth are opened up, the yang is clear and the yin is turbid. Pangu is in it, and nine changes a day, the gods are in the sky, and the holy is in the earth. The sky is one zhang high, the earth is one zhang thick, and the Pangu is one zhang long, so eight thousand years. The number of heaven is extremely high, the number of earth is extremely deep, and Pangu is extremely long. Later there are three emperors."
Before the heaven and earth are opened, the universe is like a big egg and a chaotic ball. There are no creatures inside, no wind or rain, and no sunshine or moonlight.
I don’t know how long it took, a creature was born in the center of the “egg”, named Pangu. He shrank in a small ball, absorbing nutrients and growing alone in this chaotic universe.
I can’t feel the passage of time in the chaos, and when Pangu struggled to open his eyes, his limbs also grew.
He lives alone in this chaos. As time goes by, his growing body feels the narrowness of this universe.
He could touch the sky with his hand raised. He had enough of such days, and he opened his huge palm and slashed towards the sky.
A "click" sound was heard, and a "big egg" cracked a crack, and a glimmer of light came in.
Pangu saw hope and raised his arm even harder, but no matter how hard he tried, he could no longer shake the "eggshell".
Pangu collapsed to the ground, staring at the ray of light in his eyes. The strong desire to go out made him give birth to a trick.
Pangu picked up the axe casually and slashed at the dark chaos in front of him. He saw the huge rock cracking and the "big egg" was broken. The chaotic darkness of millions of years was stirred up, and the light and clear things slowly rose and gradually dispersed, turning into a blue sky; while those thick and turbid things slowly fell down and turned into the land under their feet.
After the heaven and earth were separated, Pangu stood on the sky and his feet, standing in the sky and earth. Although the heaven and earth were separated, the distance was not too far, and he slowly approached with a magnetic field.
Pangu was afraid that the world would close again and become what it was, so he supported the sky with his hands and stepped on the earth with his feet to make his body grow one meter taller every day. As his body grows, the sky will rise one meter high every day and the earth will thicken one meter every day. After another 18,000 years, the sky is getting taller and thicker, and Pangu's body is growing as long as 90,000 miles. It is like a long pillar, standing between the sky and the earth, not letting them close again
Tens of millions of years have passed, the sky no longer rises, the earth no longer thickens, and Pangu is also exhausted. He knew that the world would never close again, so he fell down with a smile on his face.
When he was dying, his body turned into all things: the breath exhaled from his mouth turned into wind and clouds, the sound turned into thunder, the left eye turned into the sun, the right eye turned into the moon, the hair and beard turned into stars in the night sky, the body turned into the east, west, south, and north poles and the majestic mountains and five mountains, the flowing blood turned into rushing rivers, the tendons and veins turned into crisscrossing avenues, the teeth, bones and bone marrow turned into underground minerals; the skin and hair turned into plants and trees on the earth, and sweat turned into rain and dew. The muscles turned into farmland, and even the sweat flowed out became rain and dew that nourishes all things
In this way, Pangu used his divine power and body to open up the world and transform all things in the world. Pangu's elf soul also became human after his death.
Then the Three Emperors appeared, and then they embarked on their brilliant journey.
