Jingwei and the Spirit of Resistance

Jingwei was the daughter of Shennong, the Emperor of the Yellow Emperor, who drowned in the East China Sea. Jingwei transformed into a bird and filled the sea with stones day after day, showing a spirit of unyielding and resistance.

The story not only reflects mankind's reverence for the sea and the smallness and fragility of mankind in the face of nature, but also expresses the ancient people's desire to fight against the sea and dream of conquering and transforming nature.
