It was just a Chinese myth from the past. It was said that ,once upon a time,

his Taoist master and had acquired the ability to shoot down the suns. Then
he got his arrows and bow out of his bag. One by one, totally 9 suns were
shot down. The people were very excited and crowned him the King for his
contribution.
