History

Hou Yi, the godly archer, is an illustrious role of the Beijing Opera, which is known as great expression of Chinese culture: In Chinese mythology he lived at a time when there were still ten suns in the sky. These suns ought to shine one after another, but for unknown reason, all ten of them shone at once, making the earth almost inhabitable for humanity. People asked Hou Yi for help and he shot down nine of them, leaving the one we still see shining in the sky today.
