They set fire to their barn, and Shun escaped by jumping from the edge of the barn with two bucket sticks; They filled the well and buried it, and Shun dug a tunnel underground to escape. Afterwards, Shun did not feel jealousy, but still obeyed his father and stepmother, cared for his younger brother, and was humble and courteous to the clansmen, respecting the old and loving the young, which deeply touched everyone. Emperor Yao felt his filial piety and secretly helped Shun, making Shun an enlightened holy king and famous in history.
