Gun Steals Xirang

from The Mythographist Hosted by Jaer Christie

Imagine the worst rain you've ever seen, and imagine that lasting for weeks, months, even years. Cultures around the world tell stories like this — flood myths, we call them, and we've looked at a few from China already. This week and next week, though, we'll cover another one, possibly the most important: the story of a flood, a supernatural heist, and incredible dedication to the people and the nation. Join me, Jaer Christie, as I explore the hidden legends that shape the world on The Mythographist: Myths of Mainland China. _______________________________ Written, narrated, and produced by Jaer Christie Research by Jaer Christie & Elena Tung Music: "Dancing Abroad" & "The Night" by Shaoqing Luna Li - https://filmmusic.io/u/sqluna/music License CC BY 4.0 - https://filmmusic.io/standard-license "River Water," "Flowing Water," and "Yangguan Pass" from the collection The Essence of Famous Chinese Folk Music, used under CC fair use.
