Description
This book mainly introduces the origin of the Yi ethnic group's Torch Festival. It tells the story of a Yi youth Heitilaba fighting a decisive battle with the son of a god for his sweetheart. In the duel, the son of the god Sireabi was defeated and died. In order to punish the world, the god threw locusts on the world to eat crops. In order to save the crops, Heitilaba led the people to burn the locusts with torches, and finally fell to the ground and turned into a big mountain. In order to commemorate him, June 24th, when he turned into a mountain, was designated as the Torch Festival.
