The narratives of Chinese mythical ceremony has experienced three development stages,from witchcraft ritual narrative to sacrificial narrative and folk ritual narrative,which is the result of the increasing degree of rationalization of Chinese society.The narrative of Chinese mythical witchcraft ceremony has had a profound influence on Chinese culture.It opened the precedent of Chinese romantic literature,promoted the formation and development of the art form of Chinese song,music and dance,and directly gave birth to the formation of Taoism.The narrative of the Chinese mythical ceremony rituals ran through the entire feudal era,which played a foundation for the formation of the Chinese etiquette system.With the continuous integration of official etiquette into folk life,the ritual narrative of myth has gradually evolved into a folk ritual narrative that can fit with modern life,and the people have become the main body of the mythical folk ritual narrative,which has a profound impact on the formation and development of Chinese festival folk customs.
