水土一方 (Water and Mud)

爷爷的爷爷的爷爷说：从前的从前的从前，世上原本就无人烟。狼奔豕突，虎豹结伴，野兽横行，豺狼当道。一日，女娲巡天，忽觉本该五彩斑斓的美好世界，却无一主宰。尽收眼底的是弱肉强食，茹毛饮血，暴殄天物，尸骨遍野。所望之处，弥漫着无所不在的血腥之气。如此乾坤，不寒而栗。不由心生一念，用泥捏人，并由其来主宰世界，定会姹紫嫣红、光彩夺目。于是，女娲信手拈来水土，背着天神，给了人与动物截然不同的四肢和躯体，又点化了大脑和心灵，使其有思想，会思维。从此，世界上便有了人，人与水土生死攸关的联系也由此而形成。(The grandfather of grandfather of grandfather once said: once upon once upon once upon a time, there was no human. The wolves ran with the boars, the tigers companied with leopards, the beasts were everywhere and the jackals were in charge. One day, Nuwa patrolled above the sky and realized that rather than a beautiful and colorful p world, it was disordered. She saw the law of jungle, a place where animals ate each other's flesh and blood, the treasures were ruined and skeletons were all over the fields. Bloodiness had spread into the air, the view made her shudder, then there was a thought appeared to her: what if she makes people out of mud, and let them take over the world, that would be a colorful and shining place. Therefore Nuwa picked up some water and mud, gave human limbs and bodies distinctly different from animals behind the gods' back, and enlightened their minds and hearts, so they have the mind to think. Form that day on, human appeared on earth, and the vital connection between human and water and mud was formed.)
