El primer día creó pollos. El segundo día creó perros. El tercer día creó ovejas. El cuarto día creó cerdos. El quinto día creó vacas. El sexto día creó caballos. El séptimo día comenzó a crear hombres de arcilla amarilla. En la dinastía Han, se la describe en la literatura junto con su esposo Fuxi como los "padres de la humanidad".
