In ancient times, in the Gaoyang clan, there were siblings born of the same mother who became husband and wife. The sovereign banished them to the wilds of Kongtong, where they embraced each other and died. A divine bird covered them with the herb of immortality. After seven years, a man and a woman were born sharing the same body, with two heads, four legs, and four hands. This was the Mengshuang clan. (The above two verifications are from the Soushen ji.)
