The song "A Hundred Birds Toward the Phoenix" is divided into three paragraphs. The first paragraph says that the phoenix died and all the birds came to appear before the court to say their final farewell. This is also played in terms of funeral.
The second paragraph is a picture of the rebirth of the phoenix and the return of the king. This paragraph is generally used for the full moon of children.
The third paragraph is the phoenix flying, and all the birds come to send each other, which is a happy event celebrated by the whole world. This paragraph is generally used for such a happy event as marriage.
Legend has it that a long time ago, Phoenix was not a phoenix, but an ordinary bird, with few feathers and average appearance. Its name was Phoenix, and many birds refused to pay attention to her because it was a little ugly. But Phoenix is very hardworking. Every day, from morning till night, it is busy picking fruits, picking up the fruits that people don't want and hiding them in the hole.
Other birds laughed at Phoenix when they saw him doing this, saying that Phoenix was insatiable, and laughed at Phoenix together, and gradually they were far away from Phoenix. Not long after, it didn't rain for a long time, and there was a drought in the forest. The birds looked for food everywhere, but the fruit had withered and they couldn't find anything to eat at all.
The birds are very hungry, and many birds can't fly. Phoenix quickly opens its cave and takes out the dried fruits stored for many years to enjoy with everyone. In this way, with the help of Phoenix, all the birds got help.
In order to thank Phoenix for saving his life, all the birds took a feather from their bodies, made beautiful bird clothes for Phoenix, and made Phoenix king of Bai Niao together.
From then on, every year, all the birds will come to see Phoenix on the day when Phoenix is named king. It can be said that Bai Niao worships Phoenix or Bai Niao worships the king.
