After Cang Jie became a historian, he used different types of shells and knots of different sizes and horizontal and vertical dimensions as marks to record events. However, as Cangjie was in charge of more and more affairs, the old method was far from meeting the needs, and Cangjie was very worried. One day, Cangjie went out hunting with an old hunter. When they came to a fork in the road, the old man pointed to the traces of various wild animals left on the ground and told him where the animals had gone. "A footprint can represent a beast," Cangjie thought, "Can I use a symbol to represent an event?" After returning home, Cangjie packed his luggage and went out to investigate. Along the way, he traveled through mountains and rivers, asked questions without hesitation, and described all the things he saw according to their characteristics. It took him a year, and he finally returned with a full load. It is said that after Cangjie returned home, he closed the door and did not go out for three years. He drew all the figures he collected along the way with tree branches in the yard. To this end, he used up all the dry branches around Yangwugou. Cangjie's success in creating characters greatly promoted social development and brought light to human progress. This event moved the Jade Emperor so much that, as famine was happening at the time and many families could not make ends meet, he ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals to open the granary in the Heavenly Palace and let it rain millet. People were finally saved... After Cangjie died, people buried him in the north of Shiguan Town, Baishui County, facing the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum on Qiaoshan Mountain. There was an antithetical couplet engraved on the tomb door: "The rain of millet moved the Emperor of Heaven in those days, and the same writing will forever accompany the Qiaoling Mausoleum". People set the day for worshiping Cangjie as the day of Grain Rain, which is now the Grain Rain Festival. Since then, every year during the Grain Rain Festival, the Cangjie Temple holds a traditional temple fair, which lasts for seven to ten days. Year after year, thousands of people come here from all directions to hold grand and solemn ceremonies to welcome Cang Sheng into the temple and to remember and worship Cang Jie, the ancestor of Chinese characters. People dance the yangge, run on bamboo horses, perform folk performances, show martial arts, beat drums and gongs, put on operas, sing and dance to express their respect and remembrance for Cang Sheng. Opera troupes and businesses also came to join in the fun, making the event extremely lively. The Cangjie Temple Fair has become a grand festival in the local area. Even the local customs of going to school to seek a teacher, respecting and cherishing words, loving to drink red bean porridge, living in cave dwellings, begging for rain, begging for children, praying for blessings and warding off disasters are all related to Cangjie.Summary: The above content is about [Will it rain during the Grain Rain solar term?
