In the creation of The Three-body Problem Problem , the famous contemporary science fiction novelist Liu Cixin not only drew on the explicit forms (symbols, metaphors) unique to myth, but also went deep into the implicit forms of myth expression (such as using myth as a method of thinking), thus getting involved in thinking about social forms and the future development of mankind, these new changes in the narrative level illustrate the infinite possibilities contained in myth itself, and literature and art are only one aspect of creating these possibilities. Therefore, this article attempts to explore the commonalities between myth and science fiction and new research perspectives through text analysis.
