An orphaned cowherd, left nothing but an old ox, is told by the beast that the youngest daughter of the Queen Mother of the West comes down to bathe in a heavenly river. He takes her robe, wins her, and they live in perfect love — until the Queen Mother draws the Silver River across the sky and parts them forever, save for one night a year, when the magpies build a bridge. The Qixi legend.
