The spirit in the halls of clouds beast, began to persons.The jade emperor in heaven and earth, one-on-one hit the dragon, tiger, cow, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dogs, pigs, rabbits, snakes, mice twelve families the amphibious animals for the twelve animal signs.

The jade emperor was about to give them a row seating, see class black pig out.This old black, although born stupid mouth in my cheeks, but only love troubles.It played a way: "who have chosen twelve princes, little travail I would like to for you share, when a fair person, for the brothers position in turn."The jade emperor smell speech exultation, charged black pig to justice and broken, went away.

The jade emperor, twelve animal signs has started to act.

The beginning, everybody unanimously elected a gentle, generous workhorse in the first place, even the mightyThe tiger, black dragon also worship it, agreed.However, in the cornerThe mouseDrill out to protest.It said: "the theory of large number I big, do not believe I to the world than, to hear people comment."So the workhorse and mice came to downtown streets.

Cattle passed by in the crowd, people have no response.At this time, the mouse "with a swish" climbed into the back of a bull at a draught, play to stand up to, the people have the tumult in the street: "what a big mouse!"When people take out the sticks to break, mouse had run away.

Mouse back big blow, blow, all the leaders for cattle - only black pig was glad.It felt that only in this way regardless of size, good or bad thing, can the sham as the genuine, oneself also benefit.The rat it a stroke of a pen, and at the back of the old cow.

This annoyed the tiger and black dragon, both once it up, shake heaven quivered with rage.All the leaders to the dragon and tiger worship, unanimously elected tiger is the king of mountains, black dragon is the king in the sea, and over the world.The tiger and black dragon had human power, and also went after gan mice and workhorse.At this moment, and jump out of a troubled hare, it's sneer at 1, said: "hey hey!

Mice and I look alike, the theory is I bigger than mouse, I am a mountain the king's guard, should be ahead of the sea king."

Black dragon a listen to great anger, say: "you take an edgewise, defy spirit za also away."Black pig to delicious, favour say: "it's a deal, and you run the game, let pig dog to act as your referee."

The race started, black dragon walking, moment I flew to the front.Angle, however, when it ran to the bushes by the branches on a wild rattan, how also pick not down.Hare a squat eighteen long, ran to the finish.

Black pig against the princes, the rabbit in the black dragon, tiger.

Black dragon race failed, often secretly complain that chicken Angle to drag down the it, but refused to return the two horns to chicken again, from then on, the rooster lost two horns, was to come.

Only monkeys, snake, horse, sheep, pigs, the chief did not.Black pig ulterior motives to stir up again: "brother monkey is the variety of king of the land, the snake brother is in the water swim across, after you two who first who?"After some discussion, they decided to conduct a poll world, acrobatics.Green snake asked a red horse, the monkey asked the goat, make it both help costumes.

Green snake game that day, and the red horse demonstrated in front, goats, and monkeys row behind.Black pig to finish the princes row seating, simply write himself in the head, also secretly glad you can effortlessly, fame and fortune.

It came to see the jade emperor temple of spirit clouds.The jade emperor took the seating plan, a look, and said nothing, but the name of the black pig will row in the first tick off, switch to the head.Again according to the order of the earthly branch out rat, mao-tu, ox, tiger, dragon YiShe, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, pig things are twelve tables.Ease out the imperial edict to on duty GongCao to release.

Still mad about zodiac seating scheduled, the jade emperor, and pages to give black pig group of 16 words:

Useless fool, reverse black and white, sent to eat excrement, a year a slaughter.

This is an intriguing and interesting story.It not only use the fantasy explained the pork chops reasons, from the end of the twelve animal signs also tell how people rat ahead of cattle;Pig why being regarded as stupid, every year is facing the fate of the people kill.The narration of the story is full of value judgment and has distinct orientation, the pig is completely as the villain of the piece of attack irony.

In people's mind, the pig is perhaps the most honest of livestock, it is not as clever as a dog, understand the mind of the master, follow the master, before and after the best of please capabilities.And the pig long with a round, plump and honest, eat sleep, hungry eat, is honest.Pig of lazy is notoriously in animals, the pig is the fastest of all the animals are long one, less important reason is that activity.In addition to the activities in the process of eating, pig rarely do plenty of exercise, let alone worry about tired.Dirty pig also is well known, although it's not hygiene with the objective reasons, almost all but it is a lifetime in a column to eat, live, la, sa, covered in sticky shit, give a person the feeling of nausea.Because due to some of these characteristics of pigs, it tends to become stupid, lazy, greedy marry, ugly.Used in the cultural life of human beings, with profound negative.

Pigs were used in derogatory sense, however, is completely out of it is an observation on its surface.
