The origin of the zodiac monkey

The monkey ranks ninth in the Chinese zodiac , and the twelve dominates belong to "Shen", 3-5 pm (ie "Shen Shi"). At this time, monkeys like to cry the most, with the longest and loudest voice, so Shen Shi is a monkey . Therefore, the "Shen Shi" at twelve o'clock in a day-from 3 o'clock in the afternoon to punctuality is also called "Monkey Time"

Monkeys belong to the order of the primates of mammals, including wild monkeys, spider monkeys, proboscis monkeys, golden monkeys and so on. Legend has it that the tiger became the king of Zeng with the reputation of Zhenshan beast-making at the beginning. At that time, all the beasts in the mountains evaded the tiger immediately. Of course, the tiger was both proud and lonely. At that time, the monkey and the tiger were neighbors, and the two were called brothers and sisters. When the tiger king went out, the monkey took the order of the town. The beasts were awed by the power of the tiger king, and they had to listen to the call of the lion. This is the origin of "there is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is the king".

One day, the Tiger King unfortunately fell into the hunter's net and was struggling desperately to get out of it. The monkey happened to come and the Tiger King shouted for help. When the monkey saw him, he quickly climbed up the tree, untied the hunter's net rope, and rescued the tiger king.

After the Tiger King escaped, although he couldn't help thanking the monkey brother, he was thinking: I am the king of beasts, and I was caught by the hunter's trap, or the little monkey rescued it. If the monkey's publicity came out, wouldn't it be extinguished? My Tiger King’s might as well, it’s better to kill the monkey, but after another thought, I am now a lonely man, and if I kill the monkey, I won’t even have a friend in the future. If there is any more danger, who will help me? Besides, the monkey is afraid of me and will never tell what happened today.

Therefore, the tiger told the monkey that today's life-saving grace will be repaid in the future. If the monkey has any embarrassment in the future, he will do his best to repay it. Of course, the monkey also kept silent about the Tiger King’s distress and saved the Tiger King’s face. After this, the relationship between the two was even more extraordinary.

Many years later, the Jade Emperor began to choose the zodiac. As the king of beasts, the tiger naturally became the zodiac. When the monkey saw it, he wanted to be the Chinese zodiac. However, the Jade Emperor has a principle in choosing the zodiac, that is, to be useful to mankind. Monkeys do nothing to humans, so naturally they cannot be chosen. So the monkey asked the Tiger King to intercede with the Jade Emperor and let him be the zodiac sign. Because the tiger king owed the monkey’s love, he had to do his best to help the monkey intercede. He told the Jade Emperor that the Monkey Alliance was witty and was the first among the beasts. He also said that the monkey also had the merits of protecting the mountain when he was absent, so the Jade Emperor made an order. , The monkey is also included in the zodiac.

The monkey became the zodiac, and the tiger king also returned the favor of the monkey. Of course, the Tiger King was still unhappy. The monkey who had no abilities was listed as the Chinese zodiac with him, and the two of them broke off their friendship ever since. Today, Beasts are not afraid of monkeys anymore. Of course, the big truth of "there is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is king" has become a satire today.

When monkeys do not directly participate in certain activities, they do not care much about those engaged in these activities. The monkeys did not deliberately be enemies with others, but were a little ill-conceived and thought less about others. People even belittle the monkeys in the "Bible", saying that monkeys are like prodigal sons and prodigal sons. Monkeys only seek their own enjoyment. Even if they are decent, they are accustomed to not considering others. I don’t think that the monkeys should always be condemned, and the faults of the monkeys should not be judged by the merits of others. If we recall the story about the monkey in the Bible, we can also see that the monkey people are not willing to fall. (Chinese Zodiac http:///shengxiao/)

One of the multiple qualities of the monkeys is firmness. Although some of the monkeys seem to be so shy and blushing, the monkeys have unshakable thoughts in their hearts. The monkey people show their clever and brave self-appreciation. The monkey people do not conceal the joy and pride after self-appreciation, nor do they put on any whitewashing of proud words and deeds. The monkey people believe in others sincerely. Not as good as monkey people. If others really understand the monkey, they don’t have to bother to complain about the monkey’s narcissism of the "joy of life". This is the reason why the monkey is a monkey. However, it is not accurate to say that all people born in the Year of the Monkey are selfish and jealous.
