Legend of Nian

In the dark blue sea was Nian. Nian is a legendary beast. Nian likes to come out of the sea when it is Chinese new year. He will come to eat whatever he  finds. Nian does not like colour red, music and fireworks. One New Year the Chinese put up red lanterns, paint red and play lots of music and light up fireworks and from now on Nian the legendary beast does not come back ever again.
