As autumn arrived, so did the rains.

All the rivers rose and flowed to the Yellow River, which expanded so widely that the cows and the horses on one bank of the Yellow River couldonot be seen from the other side.

Hebo, a god in charge of the Yellow River, was excited. He thought that all the waters in the world flowed into his river, and his place had become the most splendid of all.

Hebo flowed eastward until he reached the North Sea where he looked further east and couldnot see the end of the sea. His complacent expression disappeared.

Looking up, he sighed and emotionally said to the god in charge of the North Sea, "As the old saying goes,' those who konw all the hows and whys often consider themselves much better than others.
