==Legend == According to myth, he invented the luo, a net for catching birds. Goumang is the descendant of Shaohao (), the god who reigns over the western region, but he assists Fuxi，also known as Taihao to reign over the eastern region and the spring season. However, in some versions, Goumang is a title for the officer of wood, instead of being a special deity. He is said to be the offspring of the god Shaohao (), and his name is Zhong/Chong (different from the god Zhong who separated the heaven from the earth). He assists Fuxi, who takes wood as the emblem of his reign, to rule the eastern region and the season of spring. According to legend, the kingdom of Fuxi and Goumang is in the most east of the world, where the sun rises. Here is an endless green forest with the huge sacred tree, Fusang, growing. The circumference of the kingdom ruled by Taihao and Goumang is 12,000 li (about 6,000 kilometers).
