Shan Hai Jing said: Shao Hao's country is in a big valley outside the East China Sea.
Zuo Zhuan recorded it in more detail: According to legend, when People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded in Shao Hao, there happened to be a phoenix flying, representing good luck, so Shao Hao took birds as a totem and claimed to be the king of birds.
Shao Hao named all civil and military officials after birds, such as Xuanniao as Sima, who was in charge of military power, Zhu Jiushan as Stuart, who was in charge of civil affairs, and so on.
There are different opinions about the five emperors in ancient times. One view is that it is one of the five emperors, also known as Jin and Qingyang.
According to Notes, Shao Hao's mother, Huang E, weaves in the palace at night and plays on the water during the day. Once, she met Bai Di's son by the water. Bai Di's son was considered a child prodigy at that time, but in fact he was transformed by Taibai's essence. They fell in love at first sight. Bai Di's son and oriole played drums and sang together. They gave birth to Shao Hao in poor mulberry.
Poor mulberry is on the west coast, where a mulberry tree goes straight into the sky. It takes 10 thousand years to bear a fruit, and eating it will last forever. So it is also called poor mulberry.
There are many myths about Shao Hao, but there are also many contradictions. For example, Shao Hao's bird country is in the East, and some books say that he is the god in charge of the West. Many people think that Shao Hao is the leader of Dongyi nationality, and the Hundred Birds Country he founded is actually the fusion of Dongyi tribes. People think that he can inherit the virtues of Tai Hao Fuxi and call him Shao Hao.
However, in Shan Hai Jing, it is said that Shao Hao was a white emperor who lived in Changliu Mountain in the west, representing autumn and in charge of the land in the west. There are many famous people in Shao Hao's descendants, such as the inventor of the bow and arrow, and Qiong Qi, who has the same name as the legendary beast.
Summary: Now there is a famous tomb of Shao Hao in the east of Qufu. The whole mausoleum looks like a pyramid, so it is called the "Chinese pyramid", which is the symbol and witness of ancient Dongyi culture.
