Historical legends
There is a storyteller in Sandaoyingzi Village, Baitazi Township. His name is Jinrong Suo. Among the 127 stories he can tell, there are three stories about Sun God, which are more legendary and interesting than the stories of Hou Yi Shooting Sun of the Han nationality. She describes the world Cinderella type of "Beautiful Dancing Girl", the world handless girl type of "Broken Arm Girl" and "Girl Who Can Play the Piano" all depict learning to sing and dance with birds, birds lead them to happy love. What is more primitive is the Ta Girl in the Forest, which describes the life of the primitive forest people in ancient times. It has the imprint of the supremacy of motherhood as well as the image of free marriage. In addition, there is "Golden Eagle". This legend not only implies the war, peace, tribal alliance life of the ancient Mongolian people, the heroism of the Mongolian people, but also more directly reflects the worship of Eagle Bird Totem by the Mongolian people in ancient times.

Inheritance value
In the early period, the more famous folk tales in Kazuo County were spread in Mongolian inhabited areas. With the marriage between Mongolia and Han, stories gradually spread to the mixed areas of Mongolia and Han, so there are not only Mongolian narrators, but also Han narrators and storytellers. They are passed down from generation to generation through the form of rap and singing, and together enrich and prosper the folk stories of East Mongolia in Kazuo.
These oral narratives are of great reference value to the study of the history and culture of the Mongolian people in Eastern Mongolia, such as Karaqin and Tummet, and to the study of the changes of Mongolian culture.
However, because the Eastern Mongolian folk literature mostly spreads orally, with the passage of time, the older generations of Karaqin left-wing Mongolian folk literature successively left, the genealogy of inheritance has been difficult to continue, and the Eastern Mongolian folk literature with important oral history value is fading out of people's memory. Particularly worrying is that the recording materials collected by the local cultural departments in the past 20 years have begun to appear demagnetization and distortion. The grass-roots cultural departments in poor areas have no way to do anything. The Dongmeng folk literature is really in a serious endangered situation, which urgently needs protection and rescue.
