The significance of the cuckoo in the 'Christmas Cuckoo Story' could be multi - faceted. It could be a symbol of the unexpected joys that Christmas often brings. Just as the cuckoo's appearance might be a surprise in nature, it could represent the unforeseen but wonderful things that happen during Christmas.

The cuckoo had many allusions. In the legends of Shu in China, there was a man named Du Yu who descended from the sky and became the King of Shu, Emperor Wang. He taught the people to farm. Later, there was a flood in Shu, and Emperor Wang ordered Bieling to control the flood. After Bieling succeeded, Emperor Wang abdicated and lived in seclusion. Later, Emperor Wang wanted to return to his original position but could not. He died of resentment. After his death, his resentful soul did not disperse and turned into a cuckoo bird. It kept crying,"It's better to go back", complaining that he wanted to return to his original position but could not. This legend was first recorded in Yang Xiong's Chronicle of the King of Shu of the Western Han Dynasty. There was also a saying that after Emperor Wang abdicated, Emperor Cong became arbitrary. Emperor Wang wanted to persuade him, but Emperor Cong misunderstood him. Emperor Wang could not enter the city. Later, he turned into a cuckoo and flew into the palace in the city, singing to convey the truth of loving the people and stabilizing the world. In addition, the cuckoo bird cried until its mouth bled, and the blood splashed on the grass. There was a saying that the cuckoo cried blood, and its cry seemed to be the sound of "it is better to go back". It was also regarded as a symbol associated with sorrow and suffering. In classical poetry, it was often used by poets to express sorrow and grief, such as "What do you hear in the morning and evening?" in Tang Bai Juyi's "Pipa Song?" The cuckoo cries, the ape cries, etc. The novel "Acanthus Flower Blossoms" is equally wonderful. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
