(3)  Fuxi: Creator and Emperor
After Pangu opened the universe, and Gun-Yu (鯀禹) channeled the flood into the sea, the earth became a suitable habitat for the ancient Chinese. Gods and human beings intermingled in heaven and earth in all kinds of activities, sometimes in harmony, sometimes in conflict. Events in the universe were not as defined as we know them today.
Legends were described in many classic books, like Lie Zi 《列子》and Boshu 《帛書》, a piece of cloth unearthed from an ancient tomb.
Fuxi (伏羲) was one important legendary god-man figure. His birth was an unusual event, and his life a signal contribution to Chinese civilization.
