Qu Yuan questioned Nu Wa's creation in his poems.
On the question of heaven.

Although Tian Wen is a poet's work expressing grief and indignation, its ideological content transcends grief and indignation and shows the author's spirit of pursuing truth. About the origin of the world, there was a theory that the gods created the world, but Qu Yuan asked, "Who preached it in the early ancient times?" Regarding the origin of human beings, it was said that Nu Wa created human beings at that time, and Qu Yuan would also ask "Nu Wa has a body, who created it" and question the theory of God creation. It is no exaggeration for Hu Xiaoshi to call Qu Yuan "a torchbearer in the dark that breaks through the primitive misunderstanding of mankind". In a word, the poet perfectly interweaves the fantasy myth with the realistic ancient history and creates a masterpiece.
