It was originally a nameless giant, but because he was fighting for the throne with the Yellow Emperor, he was cut off by the Yellow Emperor, which is what he called. The meaning of this name is: the one who is heavenly, the one who is upside down, and the one who is tortured, who kills. Heaven is the Emperor of Heaven, "" means that he swears to kill the Emperor of Heaven for revenge. (Another theory holds that punishment means cutting and mowing, and heaven is the head, that is, the meaning of the head.)

When Emperor Yan was still the Emperor of Heaven who ruled the entire universe, he was a minister under Emperor Yan. He loved songs in his life, and once composed the music "Fu Li" for Emperor Yan and the poem "Harvest", the general name of which is "Bu Mou", in order to praise the happy life of the people at that time.

Later, Emperor Yan was overthrown by the Yellow Emperor and relegated to the south to become a Heavenly Emperor. When Chi You raised troops to resist the Yellow Emperor, he wanted to participate in this war, but he did not make the trip because of Emperor Yan's resolute obstruction. Chi You and the Yellow Emperor lost the battle, Chi You was killed, and he couldn't hold back his angry heart anymore, so he secretly left the Southern Heavenly Court and went straight to the Central Heavenly Court to compete with the Yellow Emperor.

Holding a rectangular shield in his left hand and a flashing axe in his right hand, he passed all the way, cut through the gates of heaven, and went straight to the palace of the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor was leading the ministers to watch the fairies singing and dancing in the palace, and suddenly saw the shield and axe killing, and immediately became furious, picked up the sword and wrestled. The two stabbed and slashed with axes, killing from inside the palace to outside the palace, from heaven to mortal, and directly to Changyang Mountain.

Changyang Mountain is the place where Emperor Yan was born, and not far to the north is Xuanyuan Kingdom, the birthplace of the Yellow Emperor. The people of Xuanyuan Kingdom all had snake faces and bodies, and their tails were wrapped around the top of their heads. Both enemies have arrived in their homeland, so the battle is particularly fierce. I think, the world originally belonged to Emperor Yan, but now that it has been stolen by you, I must take it back. The Yellow Emperor thought, now that the whole world is safe and happy, and my descendants of Xuanyuan are prosperous, how can I allow others to get involved. So everyone used all their strength, hoping to kill the other at once.

In the end, the Yellow Emperor is a veteran of the battlefield, and there is the art of war taught by the Nine Heavens Xuannu, so he has more eyes, looks at (qu) a flaw, and slashes the neck with a sword, only to hear the "click", the huge head like a hill rolls down from the neck and falls at the foot of Changyang Mountain.

As soon as he touched the head on his neck, he immediately panicked, hurriedly moved the axe to the left hand holding the shield, stretched out his right hand and scratched the ground. He wanted to find his unyielding head and put it on his neck to fight the Yellow Emperor again. He touched and touched, and the valleys and valleys around him were all touched by him, and the towering trees and protruding rocks were all broken and collapsed under the touch of his right hand, and the head was still not found. He only looked into the distance, but he didn't realize that the head was at the foot of the mountain not far from him.

The Yellow Emperor was afraid that he would really touch the head, and he would return to his original body and come against him, so he hurriedly raised the sword in his hand and slashed hard at Changyang Mountain, with the loud sound of "boom" and "bang", Changyang Mountain was split in half, and the huge skull fell into the mountain, and the two mountains merged into one, and buried the head deeply.

Hearing this strange noise, I felt the strange changes around me, and stopped groping my head. He knew that the vicious Yellow Emperor had buried his head, and that he would be in a different place forever. He stood there like a dark mountain. Imagine the triumphant appearance of the Yellow Emperor, imagining that his wish has not been achieved. He was furious. He was unwilling to be defeated by the Yellow Emperor like this. Suddenly, with a shield in one hand and a large axe in the other, he slashed and danced towards the sky, continuing to fight to the death against the invisible enemy in front of him.

What a spectacle this kind of spectacle is! The one who has lost his head, ** his upper body, seems to use his breasts as eyes, his navel as his mouth, and his body as his head. The "eyes" of the two breasts seemed to be spewing angry flames, the round umbilicus seemed to be cursing with hatred, the head of the body was as solid and steady as a mountain, and the axe and shield in both hands were wielding so powerfully.

Seeing that Headless was still wielding his shield axe angrily, the Yellow Emperor trembled in his heart and couldn't help but be afraid. He didn't dare to poison him again, and quietly slipped back to Heaven.

The severed head is still near Changyang Mountain, wielding the weapon in his hand.

Thousands of years later, Tao Yuanming, a great poet of the Jin Dynasty, wrote a poem in "Reading the Classic of Mountains and Seas" and said: "Jingwei Weimu will fill the sea." Dancing and dancing, fierce ambition is always there. There is no class of the same thing, and there is no regret when it is gone. Set in the heart of the past, the good day is waiting!", praising the spirit of fighting despite defeat. The "dry" in the poem is the shield, and the "qi" is the meaning of the axe. , symbolizing a spirit: never compromise!

In the original record of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", it is called "Xingtian", and the name of "" is believed to have been changed by Tao Yuanming, according to the "Taiping Yulan" quoted from "Tao Jingjie Collection Reading Poems of the Classic of Mountains and Seas", "" means "the body is disabled", but it may be copied incorrectly and there are two sayings of "dancing dry qi" and "forming a thousand years old".

For thousands of years, the literati have argued that Tao Yuanming used "" or "form to die", and Zeng Hong in the Northern Song Dynasty said that "form is not a thousand years old" is correct, but Zhou Bida in the Southern Song Dynasty refuted it, arguing that "form is not a thousand years old" is not logical in poetry, so "dancing and dancing" is correct. However, in the Qing Dynasty, Tao Shu was inclined to Zeng Hongzhi to say that in the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China, Lu Xun and Guo Moruo thought that "Xingyao" and "Xingtian" could not achieve this meaning, so they used "".

According to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas": "The sky and the emperor compete for the gods, the emperor cuts off his head, and buries the mountain of the sheep." It is to take the milk as the eye, the umbilicus as the mouth, and the to dance. ”

Xingtian, i.e., is a god without a head in mythology and legend. form, through the meaning of "punishment", cutting, and killing. Heaven means to be upside down, referring to the head of a person. It is to cut off the head. Therefore, this god was originally nameless, and only after he was beheaded did he have the name of God.
