Mnemonic


[cu-] Cupid is in [1] front of the [-(e)i] beach house by the bay where he is working with a 隹 turkey, named 崔 Cui to build a 山 mountain of sand. He flies back and forth, piling the sand onto the 山 mountain that will take the image of 崔 Cui. That is to say, it will be a sandy 山 mountain shaped just like a 隹 turkey. Why does Cupid help? Because he and 崔 Cui have been friends for a long time. He often uses 崔 Cui's 隹 turkey feathers to make his love arrows, in fact.
