Ancient Chinese Texts Indicate Alien Sightings Four Thousand Years Ago

Strange stories of aliens visiting Earth are found not only in science fiction, but newspapers and magazines as well. But alien sightings are not merely a modern phenomenon—these accounts can also be found in ancient Chinese texts. These historical records provide evidence and clues for modern research on aliens.
According to a report on China Economic Net, a story in the book entitled "In Search of the Supernatural" [1] by Gan Bao of the East Jin Dynasty (317 AD - 420 AD) tells of contact with Martians.
In the Wu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms Period [2] (222 AD - 280 AD), the ancients wrote of child possessing a strange appearance appearing among a group of playing children. He was 1.3 meters tall, dressed in blue and had shining eyes.
The other children had never seen this newcomer before, so they surrounded him to ask questions. "I am not from the earth, but from the Mars," said the child dressed in blue, "I saw that you are playing so happily so I came down to see you."
"The state of having three kingdoms standing will not last long," the child continued. "In the future, the world will belong to the Sima family." The Earth children were scared by this news, and one quickly ran to fetch the adults. When the adults rushed over, the Martian child bid the goodbye and immediately shrank his body and jumped into the air.
When people raised their heads to watch him, they could only see a white silk cloth dragging a long belt, flying rapidly towards the sky. Nobody dared to spread the bizarre event at the time.
Four years later, the Shu Kingdom perished. Another 17 years later, the Wu Kingdom also perished. When the tangled warfare among the three kingdoms was over, the Sima family united China, just as the Martian child had predicted. Regardless of whether the above record is true, it points to the possibility of ancient with aliens.
According to "Researching Lost Records" written by Wang Jia during the East Jin Dynasty , during the time of Emperor Yao [3] four thousand years ago, a huge boat-shaped UFO floated in the air above the West Sea [4]. The UFO drifted slowly and had many lights. People aboard the UFO were seen wearing hats, and had white feathers growing all over their bodies. They had no wings but could fly. "Annals on the Five-Elements" written of the Qing Dynasty, recorded another incident involving hunting an alien. The incident took place in March of the 12th year of Emperor Kangxi [5]. Some people saw a black-faced man flying fast through the air. His body was flashing red lights, as if setting fire in the sky. When local officials heard the news and rushed over, the man suddenly disappeared.
"The Chronicle of Disasters and Unusual Phenomena, Draft History of the Qing Dynasty" recorded an incident very similar to modern reports of alien abduction. On July of the third Year of Emperor Yongzheng [6] during the Qing Dynasty, a group of villagers went into the mountains to cut bamboo in Liaojiatang of Wudu in Lingchuan. The group witnessed one villager suddenly disappear. More than 140 days later, he reappeared in his home. Fellow villagers reported that upon his return, the abducted villager was completely incoherent.
Documents and historical records involving aliens not only reflect the magnificence of Chinese history and culture, but also add mystical color to the long-unsolved mystery of alien beings.
Notes:
[1] "In Search of the Supernatural" was written by Gan Bao during the East Jin Dynasty (317 AD – 420 AD). It is a compilation largely based on legends and hearsay.
[2] The Three Kingdoms Period refers to a time period in Chinese history. The three kingdoms were Wei, Shu and Wu. [3] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yao_%28ruler%29
