★ The comic story at the beginning isparticularly captivating, just like a key that unlocks the door to thefantastical world of "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

★ The content of the book is classified bycountry, monster, plant and deity, making it easier for readers to understandwhat is in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

★ For example, monsters are classified bytheir abilities: some can resist fire, some can heal, some can relieve hunger,and some can cause floods or droughts, etc. Another example is that residentsare classified by their features: there are those with long arms, those withholes in their chests, those without intestines, those with only one arm, thosecovered in hair all over, and those with black teeth, etc. There are also someinteresting stories, such as that Yu was actually the second generation ofwater control heroes, Gonggong's stinginess caused the collapse of the Pillarof Heaven, and Xingtian could still be a war god even without a head.

★ The book also connects the modern worldwith the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". For instance, thehuman-faced bird described in the book might be the owl we see today; the ZhuYan, symbolizing a super war with red claws and a white head, is very likelythe white-cheeked leaf monkey.

You may have heard the legends of Nuwa mending the sky and creating humans, but did you know that after Nuwa's death, her intestines transformed into ten immortals?

You might also know the legend of Yu controlling the floods, and perhaps even the story of passing by his own door many times without entering— but did you know that during the flood control, Yu would transform into a giant bear, which accidentally scared his wife to death when she came to bring him food... Isn't that just tragic!

In many hearts, the Queen of Heaven is a beautiful and dignified fairy. But did you know that in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", she has a leopard's tail and when she roars, she reveals sharp tiger teeth! Could this be the earliest "a tiger-like wife"?
