The legend of azaleas
Azaleas are very beautiful. The tubular flowers come in many colors, including deep red, pale red, rose, purple, and white. When azaleas bloom in spring, the whole mountain is brightly colored, like rosy clouds winding around the forest, and they are praised by people as the “Xi Shi among flowers”. The colorful azaleas arouse people's warm and beautiful feelings about life, and they also symbolize the prosperity and strength of the country and the happy life of the people. This is the true meaning of our people's love for azaleas.
According to legend, the ancient state of Shu was a peaceful and prosperous country. Its land was fertile, its products were abundant, and the people had ample food and clothing, were free from worries, and lived very happily. However, the carefree and affluent life gradually made people lazy. From morning to night, they indulged in a life of drunken dreams, visited prostitutes and gambled for pleasure, and gave themselves up to enjoyment, sometimes even forgetting the time for sowing.
The emperor of the state of Shu was named Duyu. He was a very responsible and diligent ruler, and he loved his people very much. Seeing the people enjoying themselves and forgetting their worries, he was extremely anxious. In order not to miss the farming season, every spring planting season he rushed about everywhere, urging people to sow quickly and seize the spring light. But year after year, this instead made people develop a habit: if Duyu did not come, they would not sow.
Finally, Duyu fell ill from prolonged overwork and bade farewell to his people. But he still could not forget the people. His soul turned into a small bird, and every spring it flew everywhere, uttering cry after cry: quick, sow the grain; quick, sow the grain. It cried until blood flowed from its mouth. Bright red drops of blood fell across the mountains and plains and turned into beautiful flowers one after another.
The people were moved, and they began to learn from their good ruler Duyu, becoming diligent and responsible. They called that small bird the cuckoo bird, and they called the flowers transformed from that blood azaleas. This is the origin of the idiom “zigui cries blood”. Later, “the cuckoo cries blood” was used as a metaphor for extreme sorrow. And because the cry of the cuckoo bird sounds like “better go home”, later “better go home” was mostly used as a phrase for longing to return home or urging people to return to their hometown.
