Zhong Kui: The Demon Queller's Tale of Bravery and Justice
In the realm of Chinese mythology, there exists a figure known as Zhong Kui, who is revered for his bravery and justice. His story has been passed down through generations, and is now included in many collections of Chinese folktales such as "China Myths: 100 Stories in English."
The legend of Zhong Kui begins during the Tang Dynasty when he was born into a poor family. Despite their financial struggles, his parents instilled in him strong moral values and encouraged him to study hard. However, fate had other plans for Zhong Kui.
As he grew older, Zhong Kui found himself unable to pass the imperial examination despite his intelligence and knowledge. This failure led to deep disappointment and frustration within him.
One day while wandering through a forest near his village, Zhong Kui encountered an old man who claimed to be an immortal being from heaven. The immortal revealed that he was sent by the gods to test Zhong Kui's character.
The immortal presented Zhong Kui with three trials: first, he must save a group of villagers from bandits; secondly, he must rescue a princess from captivity; thirdly, he must subdue ten fierce demons.
Zhong Kui accepted these challenges without hesitation. In each trial, he demonstrated incredible courage and wisdom beyond his years.
Upon completing all three trials successfully, the immortal declared that Zhong Kui was chosen by heaven to become the "Demon Queller." He gifted him with supernatural powers allowing him to vanquish evil spirits throughout China.
From then on,
