5. When it is said that when attacking the iron plate city, Mula ordered his men to tie torches to the sheep's heads, which are animals that like to climb cliffs, and with fire on their heads, they desperately climb to a high place. Soon, the iron plate city burned fiercely, the Tubo soldiers collapsed without a fight, escaped, burned to death, and the slave army took the opportunity to occupy the iron bridge. However, the fire spread to the mountain, and fires were lit everywhere on the mountain. I had to go up the mountain again to fight the fire, and after three days and three nights, the fire was extinguished. When you go down the mountain, everyone looks at me, I look at you, gray head and black face, very funny, coupled with the open fire burned the feet, they shouted: "A self, A self, a feed A self" playing, laughing and rushing down the mountain. Later, the slave army took advantage of the battle gap to light a bonfire and recall the fire when it went down the mountain that day, and slowly formed the "A Fine Jumping Moon". Originally known as "Dancing Music", because they often gathered together to dance under the moon and had the meaning of courtship, they avoided their elders and met at night to take advantage of the moonlight or dance around the campfire in the mountains and forests outside the village.
