A hero named Houyi, who had great strength, sympathized with the suffering people, so he drew his magic bow, shot down more than nine suns in one breath, and ordered the last sun to rise and set on schedule to benefit the people. Houyi's wife was named Chang'e. In addition to teaching skills and hunting, Houyi spent all his time with his wife. Many aspiring young men came to learn from him, and the evil-minded Peng Meng also joined in. One day, Houyi went to Kunlun Mountain to visit friends and seek the truth, and asked the Queen Mother for a packet of elixir of immortality. It is said that after taking this medicine, one can immediately ascend to heaven and become an immortal. However, Houyi was reluctant to leave his wife, and temporarily gave the elixir of immortality to Chang'e for safekeeping. Chang'e hid the medicine in the treasure box on the dressing table. Three days later, Houyi led his disciples out hunting. Pengmeng, who had ulterior motives, pretended to be sick and did not go out. Shortly after Houyi led everyone away, Peng Meng broke into the backyard of the inner house with a sword and forced Chang'e to hand over the elixir of immortality. Chang'e knew that she was no match for Peng Meng, so in the critical moment she turned around, opened the treasure box, took out the elixir of immortality and swallowed it in one gulp. After Chang'e swallowed the medicine, her body immediately floated off the ground, rushed out of the window, and flew into the sky. Because Chang'e was worried about her husband, she flew to the moon closest to the earth and became an immortal. In the evening, Houyi returned home and the maids cried and told him what had happened during the day. Houyi was both shocked and angry, he drew his sword to kill the villain, but Pengmeng had already escaped. Houyi was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. He was heartbroken and looked up at the night sky calling for Chang'e. At this time, he found that the moon today was exceptionally bright, and there was a swaying figure that looked like Chang'e. Hou Yi missed his wife, so he sent people to Chang'e's favorite back garden, set up an incense table, and put the honey and fresh fruits that Chang'e usually liked to eat on it, to offer a remote sacrifice to Chang'e in the Moon Palace. When the people heard the news that Chang'e had ascended to the moon and become an immortal, they set up incense tables under the moon and prayed to the kind-hearted Chang'e for good fortune and peace. From then on, the custom of worshiping the moon on Mid-Autumn Festival spread among the people. Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine There is a jade rabbit beside Chang'e. It is said that when Chang'e's body became lighter and began to rise into the sky, she picked up the white rabbit she had been feeding in panic. The white rabbit went up to the moon with her. The Jade Rabbit has a pestle in the Moon Palace, and at night it pounded the elixir of immortality in a mortar. After this myth was spread to Japan, it turned into the Jade Rabbit pounding rice cakes. A person's fortune changes every ten years, so there is the saying "Ten years in the east, ten years in the west".
