APPENDIX 1.     The supernatural crossbow The Âu Lạc dynasty followed the Van Lang dynasty of the Hùng Kings An Dương Vương was the king of the Âu Lạc dynasty He was a good king who cared for his country Thus, the Golden Turtle God gifted the king his turtle claw to make a magic crossbow An arrow shot from this crossbow could kill one thousand enemies and if he shot the bow one hundred times, it would always hit the target a hundred times At that time, the Nam Việt, a mighty country in the north, often attacked Âu Lạc but always failed due to the magic crossbow Triệu Đà, the king of Nam Viet, made another plan to invade Âu Lạc He heard that An Dương Vương had a beautiful princess named Mỵ Châu The king used the excuse of reconciliation to propose marriage between Mỵ Châu and his son, Trọng Thủy, who would later be a spy With the consent of An Dương Vương, the wedding ceremony was organized sumptuously According to custom, the bridegroom had to stay at his wife’s house for a while Day after day, the love between Trọng Thủy and Mỵ Châu became stronger One day, Trọng Thủy asked Mỵ Châu why Âu Lạc was a small country but could defeat a mighty country like Nam Việt Because Mỵ Châu loved and trusted her husband as much as possible, she revealed the secret of the magic crossbow to him She also disregarded her father and took her husband to see the magic crossbow in the forbidden tower Later, Trọng Thủy stole the magic crossbow and exchanged it for a fake one Then, he lied to the king and told him that he missed his home and wanted to visit his family for a while When he said goodbye to his wife, Trọng Thủy worriedly asked how he could find her if there was any conflict between the two countries Mỵ Châu said that she had a goose feather coat She would pluck the feather, so he could follow this sign and find her When Trọng Thủy gave the magic crossbow to his father, Triệu Đà declared another war with Âu Lạc An Dương Vương wasn’t worried and continued using the crossbow But the fake bow was not magic, and the army of Nam Viet almost captured the citadel An Dương Vương hurriedly jumped on a horse, Mỵ Châu behind him, and escaped from the citadel to the south After many days on the horse, they arrived at a mountain near the sea Unexpectedly, the enemy chased them to the mountain With nowhere to go, An Dương Vương called for the Golden Turtle God to save him The god appeared and told him that the enemy was sitting behind him He took out his sword to kill Mỵ Châu, then jumped into the sea to commit suicide Trọng Thủy followed the goose feather to find Mỵ Châu, then found her corpse near the coast Having loved his wife and regretting what he did, Trọng Thủy jumped into a well to commit suicide It is said that Mỵ Châu’s blood flowed into the seawater The oysters drank her blood and turned into pearls These pearls, which were washed by the water in the well where Trọng Thủy died, would be extremely luminescent 2.     God Gióng – Thánh Gióng Under the reign of the sixth Hung King, a 60-year-old woman lived in Phu Dong village or Bắc Ninh province today One day, she found a huge footprint in the field Her curiosity got the better of her and she set foot in this footprint She became pregnant on her way home She gave birth to a son and named him Gióng Gióng was an interesting child Even at three years old, he could not speak At that time, the northern country wanted to occupy Vietnam The Hung King ordered a messenger to travel across the country to find a talented general Gióng suddenly asked his mother to invite the messenger into their home Gióng told the messenger to cast an iron horse and an iron sword, then he would fight against the armed aggressor After the messenger left, Gióng stretched his shoulders and turned into an adult No matter how much rice and meat he ate, he never got full No matter how big his clothes became, they were always tight on him After the messenger told the king of Gióng, he brought the iron horse and sword to Gióng’s house Gióng rode the iron horse to battle and used the iron sword to kill the aggressor When the sword broke, Gióng pulled up the bamboo bushes on the road and threw the bushes at the enemy He killed the enemy and suffered a heavy defeat After defeating the aggressor, Gióng rode the iron horse straight to the sky The lakes and ponds today have traces of iron horse footprints The forest burnt by the iron horse was named Chay village, meaning “burnt” village The local people built a temple worshipping Gióng and called him God Gióng, or Thánh Gióng in Vietnamese The Legend of Hoàn Kiếm Lakes During the time when the Minh aggressors set the yoke of domination in the South, they treated our people like garbage, did many tyrannical things, and people hated them to the bone At that time in Lam Son area, the insurgents rebelled against them, but in the beginning, the forces were still weak, so many times the insurgent army was defeated Seeing this, Lord Long Quan decided to lend the insurgents a magic sword to kill the enemy A year after expelling the Ming invaders, one day Le Loi - now a king - rode a dragon boat around Ta Vong lake in front of the citadel On that occasion, Long Quan sent a golden turtle to claim the magic sword When the dragon boat came to the middle of the lake, suddenly a large turtle popped its head and shell out of the water At the king's command, the boat slowed down Standing at the side of the boat, the king saw that the magic sword he was wearing moved spontaneously The golden tortoise, not afraid of people, raised its head high and headed towards the king's boat It floated on the water and said: "Please return the sword to Long Quan!" The king drew his sword and threw it at the golden turtle Quick as a cut, the turtle opened its mouth to grab the sword and dive into the water Sword and turtle have sunk to the bottom of the water, people can still see something glimmering under the blue lake REFERENCES Viet Fun Travel (2019) Giới Thiệu Về Đền Ngọc Sơn Ở Hà Nội Rachel Tran (2019) Co Loa Festival - Hanoi Hafoodtour (2019) Hanoi's Name During History Worldtravelguide (2018) Hanoi History Hoangthanhthanglong (2019) Văn Miếu - Quốc Tử Giám Sở du lịch Hà Nội Di Tích Lịch Sử Văn Hố Hà Nội Thầy Pagoda Festivals Mytour.vn (2014) Hoalo.vn Giới Thiệu Nhà Tù Hỏa Lò (2015) Hoangthanhthanglong.vn Vietnamdiscovery.vn Vietnamtourism.vn whc.unesco.org bestprice.vn ...
