[Speaking of Guangzhou] Guangzhou Legend

Guangzhou is a famous cultural city with a long history of more than 2,200 years. As early as the Zhou Dynasty in the 9th century BC, the "Baiyue" people here had contacts with Chu people in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and built a "Chu Pavilion", which was the earliest name of Guangzhou. In the thirty-third year of Qin Shihuang (2 14 BC), after the reunification of Lingnan, Nanhai County was built (the county is located in Panyu, which is today's Guangzhou). In 226 AD, Sun Quan divided Jiaozhou into Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, hence the name "Guangzhou". It was not until 192 1 that the city hall was established, especially in Guangzhou.

Guangzhou was a prosperous metropolis in the Qin and Han Dynasties, the starting port of the Maritime Silk Road since the Han and Tang Dynasties, the only port open to the outside world in China in the Qing Dynasty, and the earliest trading port in China.

Guangzhou is the birthplace of China's modern revolution. The famous Sanyuanli people's anti-British struggle, Huanghuagang Uprising and Guangzhou Uprising all took place in Guangzhou. Sun Yat-sen founded the Whampoa Military Academy in Guangzhou and established the temporary regime three times. The peasant movement workshop founded by Mao Zedong here has trained a large number of revolutionary backbone forces. Zhang, Ye Ting and Ye Jianying led the vigorous Guangzhou Uprising here and established the Guangzhou Commune, the Soviet regime in Guangzhou. Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, Yu Dafu, Peng Pai, Ma Sicong, Zou Xiaoyang and Zhong also came to Guangzhou to spread advanced culture.

1982 the State Council declared the ancient city of Guangzhou as a national historical and cultural city.

Legend of Yangcheng

Guangzhou is also called "Five Yangcheng" and "Guangzhou City". There is a beautiful story about the alias of Guangzhou. It is said that in the Zhou Dynasty, Guangzhou suffered from famine for years and the people were in dire straits. One day, there were five colorful auspicious clouds floating over the South China Sea, and five immortals rode fairy sheep with five colored ears of rice in their mouths. The immortal gave the ears of rice to people and hoped that there would never be a famine here. After the immortal left, five fairy sheep stayed because of their attachment to the world, wishing the local weather. In order to thank the five immortals, people set up a "Five Immortals View" where they stayed. There are five statues of immortals in the scenery, accompanied by five stone statues of sheep. This legend is used by the mascot of the 20 10 Guangzhou Asian Games.

There are many cultural relics in Guangzhou. At present, there are 2 19 national, provincial and municipal cultural relics protection units, including 9 national key cultural relics protection units, 4 1 provincial cultural relics protection units and 59 municipal cultural relics protection units.

Tomb)

British troops looted property.

3 British troops raped women (the recorder is the famous surname: Li Xi, the wife of villager Wei Shaoguang).

Event introduction:

Guangzhou people's spontaneous armed struggle against Britain during the Opium War. 1841May 25th (the fifth day of the first month of Daoguang on April 21st), the British army captured the northern fortress of Guangzhou and set its headquarters at Yongkang Terrain. Yongkang Terrace, also known as Sifang Terrace, is only one mile away from the city, and artillery can directly bombard the city. On May 27th, Yi Shan, commander-in-chief of the Qing army, made peace with Britain and concluded the Guangzhou Peace Treaty, in order to pay for the withdrawal of British troops from Guangzhou and other provinces, in exchange for the return of their batteries and their withdrawal from Humen. However, before the ink of the peace treaty was dried, the British army constantly harassed Sanyuanli and villages such as Mudeng, Xicun and Xiaogang in the northwest suburbs, looting and burning women. The broad masses of people were filled with indignation and all localities tried their best to resist. On the 29th, villagers in Sanyuanli repelled the invading British troops. The people in Sanyuanli expected that the British army would retaliate, so they gathered in Sanyuanli ancient temple and held a meeting with the "three-star flag" in the temple as the command flag. After the meeting, they separately contacted the people in nearby towns 103 to prepare for fighting together. The next day, White village groups in Nanhai and Panyu, armed with spears and plows, besieged Yongkang Terrace. After nearly half a day of stalemate, the British commander Walter Gu Wu (also translated as "Guo Fu") personally led the troops to attack. Unite and fight and retreat, lure the enemy to Niulangang hilly area. The rain suddenly came, and the British muskets were wet and couldn't catch fire (Indian mercenaries, the British provided them with relatively backward tunnel guns, which couldn't be used in rain). The regiment trained the people to fight back in the rain, divide and surround the British army, and fight hand to hand. During the pursuit, a company (60 people) of the 37th British Regiment was driven into a paddy field by insurgents, and thirty or forty Indian mercenaries were killed and wounded by knives. The British army sent two sailors with "detonator guns" (not afraid of rainy days) to reinforce. After being besieged for two hours, the British troops retreated to the square battery.

According to Guo Fu's report, five British soldiers were killed, 23 were injured, and another major died of fatigue (another statement said that seven people were killed and 42 were injured). 3 1 in the early morning, Guangzhou handicraft workers and nearby counties such as Ruhua County, Zengcheng County and Conghua County also arrived one after another, and the number of people around Taiwan Province increased to tens of thousands, joining the British and starving to death. Wowugu did not dare to fight again, but threatened the government to break the contract and attack the city. Yishan and others were shocked when they heard the news, so they sent Yu Baochun, the magistrate of Guangzhou, out of the city to appease the British army first, and then returned to Panyu and Nanhai counties to put pressure on the gentry in the group training. The nobles evaded one after another, but Yingyong people gradually dispersed and the platform was dissolved. They fought the British with soil cannons, soil cannons, spears, shields, hoes, sickles and shovels. It can be said that "knives, axes and plows are all weapons in hand, and the shouts of children and women also help soldiers." In the battle of Sanyuanli, the British army was defeated, and in June 1, the British army withdrew from Guangzhou.

[war stories] 623 Road and Shaji Massacre

There is only one road in Guangzhou named by numbers-623 road. It was named by the then Guangzhou Municipal Government as 1925. Originally called "623 Road", it was later referred to as "623 Road". It commemorates a day that once humiliated the Chinese nation-1June 23, 925. ?

The predecessor of 623 Road is Shaji. Shaji was built during the invasion of Guangzhou by British and French allied forces during the Second Opium War. ?

Shamian was originally a small island in the Pearl River called "Medium Quicksand". Later, because the river bank moved south, it was connected with the shallow water on the north bank of the Pearl River. 1857 65438+February, the British and French allied forces occupied Guangzhou. 1In July, 859, Huang Zonghan, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, agreed that the British and French allied forces should pay the city redemption fee stipulated in the Tianjin Treaty between China and Britain, and artificially dig Shajiyong to build the sand surface into an island surrounded by water as a British and French concession. Then, sand foundation is built along the north bank of Shajiyong, and the shallow water area north of Shajiyong is built into land. Shamian has East Bridge (now Ren Minqiao Foot) and West Bridge (now Qingping Road) connected with Shaji. ?

186 1 September, Lao sogo, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, formally signed a sand lease with Britain and France. 10 year 10 month 1 day, the British and French allied forces withdrew from Guangzhou. However, Britain and France have the right to station troops in Shamian since then, and Shamian has since become a concession. It was not until the victory of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in 1945 that China resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Shamian. ?

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, Shaji had schools, Yiguang, printing houses, rice ports and so on, which became increasingly prosperous. 190 1 After the completion of Huangsha Yuehan Railway Station, Shaji is one of the main passages connecting the station with Guangzhou. It is said that in order to lose national prestige, the municipal authorities also stressed that the houses built in Shaji should have a certain scale. 1902, Britain wanted to extend the concession to Shaji area, but it was rejected by the Qing court.

1On June 23rd, 925, people from all walks of life in Guangdong held a conference in the eastern suburbs to denounce the May 30th massacre made by imperialism in Shanghai, and then held a demonstration. Chen Yannian and Zhou Enlai, the main leaders of Guangdong District Committee, attended the military parade. At 2: 00 p.m.15 p.m., the procession arrived in Shaji, turned into Cai Lan Street in an orderly way and headed for Watermelon Garden (now the former site of Guangzhou Daily). The procession dispersed in the Watermelon Garden and continued to March in Shaji and Xidi in an orderly way. At 2: 40, when the teams from Lingnan University, Wei Kun Women's Normal School, Sacred Heart College, Zhixin, Guangzhou No.2 Primary School and Whampoa Military Academy marched to Shaji, a foreigner at the Victoria Hotel (now Shengli Hotel) next to Shamian West Bridge first fired a gun at the parade. The British and French troops at the foot of Shamian West Bridge, which was already on alert, fired at Shaji, and the parade could not escape, killing and injuring many people on the spot. In order to avoid the deterioration of the situation, China soldiers and military school students who took part in the parade obeyed the discipline and did not fight back. He Xiangning, the wife of Liao, the left-wing leader of the Kuomintang, personally led the medical staff of Guanghua Hospital to the scene for rescue. According to statistics afterwards, 6 1 person died and more than 170 people were injured in this tragedy. ?

This tragedy aroused great anger among the people of China. Mr. Liao angrily wrote the inscription "Evidence of imperialist atrocities, a portrayal of the tragic situation of the sub-colonies" and the eulogy to mourn the martyrs who died in Shaji: "Dan Xin helped the Han people to be killed by the British poison plot, and the blood spilled on Shaji and Huanghuagang will last forever." ?

On the night of the tragedy, Zhou Guanming, a doctor at the Zhouguanming Clinic in Xidi South Building, first wrote a letter to the Kuomintang Central Party Department, which pursued the revolutionary policy at that time, proposing to build a monument for permanent commemoration. Later, it was approved by the Guangzhou Municipal Government. This monument was built by Zhang Yanke at that time. It is located at the foot of the bridge on the north bank of Shamian West Bridge, and it is engraved with the four characters "Don't forget today". It was completed on the first anniversary of the June 23rd massacre. But this monument is shorter. After the founding of New China, this monument was demolished at 1950, and a higher and more magnificent monument was built at the foot of Shamian East Bridge, engraved with the words "1925, the martyrs who died in the anti-imperialist struggle in Shaji are immortal". ?

After the tragedy, on June 28th, at the meeting of the special party headquarters of the Kuomintang in Guangzhou, Chen Qiyuan, a leftist of the Kuomintang, asked the municipal government to change Shaji to "623 Road", which was unanimously adopted. ?

Today, the 623 Road Monument standing at the foot of Ren Minqiao has been designated as a cultural relic protection unit and patriotic education base in Guangzhou by the Guangzhou Municipal People's Government. It inspires the people of China to forget their differences, strive for self-improvement, revitalize China and stand on their own feet among the nations of the world.

Historical allusion: six banyan trees without trees: Dongpo

There is a couplet next to the gate of Liu Rong Temple. The first couplet reads "A tower holds a medical monument", and the second couplet reads "Liu Rong remembers Dongpo without trees". Part I and Part II respectively describe the origins of two famous writers, Liu Rong Temple and Tang and Song Dynasties.

According to legend, Wang Bo, one of the four outstanding figures in the early Tang Dynasty, came to Guangzhou in 675 AD. At the invitation of Bao Temple (the predecessor of the Temple), he wrote The Story of Guangzhou Temple Tower. Unexpectedly, "since ancient times, talented people and beautiful women have been unlucky", and soon Wang Bo drowned on his way to visit relatives in the South China Sea. This inscription is actually his masterpiece. This talented poet wrote the famous Preface to Wang Teng-ting, which was famous in the world when he was a teenager, but he never met his talent. "One pagoda has a tablet to keep a doctor" is an inscription written for the stupa in memory of Wang Bo after the early years of the Republic of China.

The experience of another great writer is quite different. In the third year of Fu Yuan in the Northern Song Dynasty (110), Su Shi returned from Hainan and passed through Guangzhou. He was invited to write an inscription for Jinghui Temple (also known as Liu Rong Temple) in the name of Mu Dongpo, a monk. Su Dongpo saw six ancient banyan trees with lush foliage in the temple. He happily picked up a pen and wrote the word "six banyan trees" in regular script, elegant and elegant, gloomy and graceful. Later generations admired him as a man and loved his literary talent, so they changed Jinghui Temple to "Liu Rong Temple", hence the name Liu Rong Temple. Up to now, the word "Liu Rong" in Dongpo's calligraphy is still hanging in front of the temple.

There is a pavilion in the temple called "Burong", because the six ancient banyan trees in Liu Rong Temple have long since disappeared, and "Six banyan trees have no memory of Dongpo". In order to commemorate the origin of Su Shi and Liu Rong Temple, people built this Burong Pavilion. There is a white jade statue of Su Dongpo in the hall. Dongpo Yi Piao stands on a stone base with the word "six banyan" engraved on one side, and the back of the stone base is engraved with "Ding Feng" in bronzing font.

At that time, Su Dongpo was criticized by a small group of people in an imaginary Wutai poetry prison. In desperation, he was demoted to Huangzhou, and even his relatives and friends did not associate with him. At first, he was lonely and sad, and his spiritual loneliness was unimaginable. One of his "divination operators" described this experience with a very beautiful artistic conception:

The curved hook moon hangs on the sparse buttonwood; In the dead of night, the water from the water clock has been dripping. Who saw you alone? Fuzzy and lonely. At night, it suddenly becomes afraid, suddenly flies and comes back frequently, but no one always understands its infinite inner feelings. It kept wandering among the cold branches, but refused to perch on any tree, and finally landed alone on the cold shoal.

However, as Yu said, Su Dongpo did not sink into it after he was relegated to Huangzhou, which showed the personality charm of a generation of writers. In his loneliness, he reflected on himself and the past, experienced a whole transformation and breakthrough, and his artistic talent was sublimated and sublimated. Su Dongpo was lucky, but through hardships, he achieved it unintentionally and made a magnificent chapter in the history of China literature. The magnificent Niannujiao Red Cliff Nostalgia and Red Cliff Fu were both born in the exile of Huangzhou, which played the heroic melody in Tang and Song poetry:

The surging river flows eastward, and those heroes of the past are gone forever. To the west of the old camp, people say it's the War of the Three Kingdoms, Battle of Red Cliffs. The steep rock wall, like thunder waves lapping against the river bank, waves like rolling up thousands of snow. The majestic rivers and mountains are picturesque, and many heroes emerge at once.

Su Dongpo matured in hardships and in the regeneration after a breakthrough. However, as his enemy, the political villain still refused to let him go, and was demoted again and again, and finally was demoted to Hainan Island, which was called "isolated from the sea and polluted by water, soil and gas" at that time. Dongpo at this time is no longer the solitary minister who was demoted to Huangzhou. He still enjoys himself in a hard life, and even lives happily, excavating the beauty of Hainan Island's scenery and human feelings.

Half-awake and half-drunk, Zhu Li was fascinated step by step.

But looking for the cow found the way home, which is in the west of the cowshed.

Li Jiasan's two children, Jiangjunjiao, blow onions and leaves to welcome Weng.

Don't be one in a million, the stream has its own feng yun.

A good sentence "Don't be Wan Li, there is Feng Yun by the stream"! Su Dongpo's feelings at this time are no longer generally open-minded After all kinds of ups and downs in life, facing the world and smiling at the situation, he matured into an enlightened magnanimous person. Therefore, when he was pardoned and returned to the north, he happily left the word "six banyan trees", which made the ancient temples and literary giants shine each other and spread through the ages. Dongpo's mood at this time has been exhausted by the word "braving the wind and waves":

Don't pay attention to the beating rain in the forest. Mei sings a long whistle and walks leisurely. Bamboo poles and sandals are more dexterous than riding horses. What's to be afraid of? A raincoat and hemp fiber, despite the wind and rain, still live my life. The coolness of spring breeze awakens my wine, and the cold begins to be cold, and the peak of the sun is the sun, but it is satisfied in time. Looking back at the place where I met the wind and rain, going back, for me, there is no wind and rain, but it is still sunny.

Later generations engraved this word in Liu Rong Temple, and together with the silent banyan tree in the ancient temple, watched Dongpo's floating figure cross the Millennium wind and rain.

[Historical Allusions] Guangzhou Tribute Litchi

Litchi has been planted in Guangzhou for more than 2000 years. According to records, Zhao Tuo, the king of South Vietnam who ruled Lingnan in the early Han Dynasty, used litchi as a tribute and transported it to Chang 'an (now Xi 'an) in Kyoto. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, more than 100 litchi trees were taken from South Vietnam and transported to Chang 'an to build the "Fuli Palace" for planting.

The History of the Later Han Dynasty said: "Longan and litchi were presented in the old (present-day Guangzhou). Ten miles away (referring to the post station), five miles away; Pentium is insidious, and the dead follow the road. " Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, once satirized the present in Sick Orange and criticized Tang Xuanzong: "Recalling the past in the South China Sea, competing to offer lychees. Hundreds of horses died in the valley, and they have been sad ever since. "

Litchi was once abundant in Liwan area, west of Guangzhou. Since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there has been a piece of litchi island here, and in the Tang Dynasty, there was a "Liyuan" famous for litchi. In the Ming Dynasty, "Litchi Yuming" was listed as one of the eight scenic spots in Yangcheng. "Litchi Thousand Characters" in Qing Dynasty. Zengcheng Guaqing is a treasure in litchi. Yang Wanli of Song Dynasty said: "Wuyang litchi, the top is hung (that is, hung green)." Yang Guifei also thinks that "Litchi in the South China Sea is better than Shu", and now there is "Feizixiao" among litchi varieties. Su Shi, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, praised lychees: "Three hundred lychees a day, and I am from Lingnan without hesitation."

[Historical allusions] Taotaoju moon cakes

The indissoluble bond between Kang Youwei of Nanhai and Taotaoju of Guangzhou made Taotaoju famous. For a long time, the best place to enjoy the moon in Guangzhou was the pavilion on the roof of Taotaoju.

Taotaoju was founded in the 6th year of Guangxu (1880) and 19th year of Guangxu (1893). Tao Taoju was originally a college of a large family. By the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, this academy had changed into the signboard of "Grape House", specializing in Suzhou-style dining tables and tea noodles. Later, the grape house changed hands and was run by a boss named Chen. He changed the name of the teahouse to Taotaoju, which means he also came here to drink tea and listen to music.

Taotaoju is the earliest luxury restaurant in Guangzhou, and many literati are eager for it. When Kang Youwei gave lectures in Guangzhou, he often went to Taotaoju for tea. At the request of his boss, he improvised the word "Taotaoju". Now Tao Taoju's signboard is Kang Youwei's Mo Bao. For decades, Taotao Jusu has been a gathering place for celebrities and elegant people, because it has a strong food culture. Famous painters and calligraphers often show their new works here. In the 1990s, the Frost Garden on the third floor also held painting and calligraphy exhibitions continuously. Ancient stone lovers set up the "Tao Tao Stone Pavilion" in the Frost Garden on the third floor, and provided ancient stones for guests to watch for free. A "Xiguan Ancient Altar" was set up in the banquet hall, and a famous storyteller from Guangzhou was invited to give a free lecture on ancient times. There is also the service of performing Cantonese opera and acrobatics for guests, so that guests can enjoy both delicious food and audio-visual entertainment in Taotaoju, which is really enjoyable for Tao Tao.

A century-old shop, antique inside and outside. The pillars along the road are engraved with exquisite couplets written by Esheng Qin, a contemporary calligrapher in the Republic of China, and there are vivid reliefs to show the elegance of the old shop. Taotaoju has many famous dishes, such as pig brain fish soup, colorful fresh shrimp, fried meat crab with ginger and onion, West Lake chrysanthemum fish, hand-torn brine chicken, sliced duck hanging in the oven, cloud legs refreshing, and treasures hidden in the snow. Chen Dahui, known as the "moon cake master", Cui Qiang, Liao Bai and Liao Guoxi, nicknamed "Baihuaqiang". Wuren bacon moon cakes and Wuren white silk crisp moon cakes are very popular snacks in Taotaoju.

The century-old moon cake Taotaoju, a famous brand, inherits the essence of the moon cake handed down from the ancestors for a hundred years. The moon cakes with egg yolk lotus paste, egg yolk white lotus paste, double yellow lotus paste and double yellow lotus paste made by Seiko are all made of 100% high-quality lotus seeds, with thin skin and beautiful stuffing. With the reputation of "Four Heavenly Kings" of Cantonese mooncakes, the Big Seven-Star Moon is absolutely valuable and deeply loved by Chinese and foreign people.

Tao Taoju continued to carry forward the bold and innovative production style, and launched moon cakes with different themes, such as Tao Tao Guyun moon cakes and hometown Chayun moon cakes, which have unique Lingnan food culture connotation and contributed to the inheritance and development of moon cakes in China.

[Myth] The historical legends and allusions of Wong Tai Sin

The angry stone turned into a sheep: since Huang Chu was in Huang Gan village, he had a younger brother named Huang Chuping. When Chuping 15 years old, he herded sheep to Nanshan (Jinhua Shan Zhinan) to graze, and never came home again. His family, relatives and friends all looked for him, but there was no trace. Year after year, forty years have passed and there is still no news. Although Huang Chuchao is now full of white hair, he always remembers to hang up his younger brother who was lost when he was young.

On this day, Huang Chu heard that there was a Taoist priest in Lanxi market who asked for divination. He was very clever. So he went to the market and asked a Taoist priest to divine for his younger brother Huang Chuping. The Taoist priest listened to his memory and said, "I once met your brother Huang Chuping in Jin Huashan. Is your brother Huang Chuping? " Hearing this, he was so happy that his heart almost jumped into his throat and repeatedly said, "This is called Huang Chuping." Hurriedly kowtowed and bowed down, begging the Taoist priest to take him to see his brother.

Road flyover Huang Chu got up and went to the stone house in the mountain. Sure enough, he saw Huang Chuping, and the two brothers hugged each other, tears streaming down their faces with joy, chatting.

The elder brother looked at the younger brother he met again and said curiously, "Brother, 40 years later, your skin is still so white and tender, your hair is still so black, and your teeth are still so neat, just like when you were 14 or 15 years old. Forty years later, my face is still the same as yesterday. So is your sheep still there? "

"Of course I am." Brother Huang Chuping answered with confidence.

"Where is it?" Huang Chu brothers asked in surprise.

My brother immediately ran to the east mountain and saw Bai Lei. There are no sheep. He came back and said to his brother, "You are really joking. There are no sheep there! " The younger brother said, "No, you didn't see it."

So my brother took his younger brother to the east of the mountain, only to hear his younger brother loudly reprimand: "Get up!" " "At the same time, the fairy broom waved a few times. With ChuPing's reprimand, the white stone in Lei Lei at first turned into live sheep: some ate grass, some jumped, some fought ... There were thousands of sheep on the dock.

At the beginning, I understood that ChuPing had been refined into a spell and cultivated into an immortal, so I asked my brother to teach me how to practice. After 30 years of hard work, I have achieved great success in Taoism. I can disappear into the sky and become a fairy.

Brother Erxian returned to his hometown, Huang Gan Village, and found all his relatives and friends dead. They have done a lot of good for the villagers. Later, when people learned the truth, everyone called Xian Chengxian's younger brother Huang Chuping "Wong Tai Sin" and "Wong Tai Sin's teacher".

folklore

Wong Tai Sin is actually a golden turtle in front of the Jade Emperor's Temple. After years of practice, he has acquired the aura of the universe and his magic is also very high. One day, the scarab saw a large area of land on the earth, and there was no water in the river. The rice fields are as dry as hay, and people are so thirsty that their tongues are dry and their lips are burnt. Scarab was very kind, so it secretly sprayed the water from Tianhe to the lower bound, and it rained heavily. The people danced with joy, and the water god who visited Tianhe told the Jade Emperor about the scarab stealing rain from the world. The Jade Emperor was furious and rebuked the Scarab for using Tianhe without authorization and committing a "dogma", so he sent him down to earth as a human being and assigned the celestial guards to be reincarnated as turtles. The heavenly guards sympathized with the Scarab's punishment and wanted to choose a noble family to reincarnate the Scarab. In the evening, they called several city gods and land to ask, but one family decided that after several generations of efforts, his wife was going to give birth. At this time, the maternal household is full of golden light and red light, and the maternal feels that there is a turn for the better and the baby is born. It was the Jin Dynasty, and it was three years (AD 328).

The family name is Huang. Three years ago, they had their eldest son, and they took the "seventh grade", which means they hope to get rid of poverty from their son's generation. Now when the second son is born, there is golden light and red light. I don't know what's strange. He hoped that his second son would grow up safely, so he named it Chuping. Huang Chuping herded sheep at home when he was eight years old. He is pure and wise, filial to the young, diligent and studious, and his elders in the countryside praise him as a saint. When Huang Chuping was fifteen, one day he was herding sheep at the foot of Jinhua Mountain, and a lamb slipped and got hurt. He cured the lamb carefully and took care of it. The lamb nestled on his knee and was very moved. Huang Chuping felt sad and thought that when the lamb grew up, it would be slaughtered, which helped him to endure. He was worried and didn't know what to do. At this moment, a Taoist priest passed by and asked ChuPing why he was in such a hurry. ChuPing explained the reason. The Taoist asked Huang Chuping what he thought of the lamb. Chuping said, I hope the sheep will live forever. The Taoist priest said it was easy, so he used his magic to turn the sheep into white stones in the mountains. ChuPing looked surprised and felt very mysterious. At the same time, he became a monk again, begging the Taoist priest to take him in for Chuping. He replied: "I believe, work hard and have no attachments, but I want to succeed in learning Taoism." The Taoist priest smiled and said, "You have the wisdom to practice, and you have many fairy tales. Only by practicing diligently and achieving positive results will you be so persistent and the old road will agree with you. " Taoist introduced Huang Chuping to the Jinhua Ancient Cave in Song Chi, realized the mystery of monasticism and carved the Tao.

When Chuping returned to his hometown, his parents had died, so he had to go to see his brother Huang Chu, so Chuping told his brother about his forty years' experience. My brother asked ChuPing where the goat went. Chuping said they were still in the mountains, but his brother didn't believe him. So Chu Ping took his brother to see them in the mountains. I see a group of white stones. Where is the goat? I saw Chu Ping chanting a spell, waving the dust in his hand at the mountain and saying, "Get up, sheep." The white stone on the mountain immediately jumped up and became a thousand sheep. His brother suddenly realized the mystery of Taoism, so he studied Taoism with his younger brother. After 500 years of practice, Wong Tai Sin rode a crane and his brother rode a deer to Xianfu, and the result was the same as that of Xianban. This is the life of Wong Tai Sin and the story of "turning stones into sheep".

After the first peace became a fairy, the people sent doctors and medicines, and the police and evil were eliminated, which won the hearts of the people. People call him Wong Tai Sin or Akamatsu Sin.

Many believers built temples and shrines for him in Guangzhou, Xiqiao Mountain, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and even the United States. The legend of Wong Tai Sin dates back to ancient times, and the people praised him for punishing evil and promoting good, exorcising demons and catching monsters, practicing medicine to save people, persuading good and doing good, and planting deeds of caring for the sufferings of the people. According to the Records of Jinhua County, during the Jiading period of the Song Dynasty, there was a man named Tang Ji, whose left eye often shed tears, and he couldn't be cured after seeing many famous doctors. One day, he went up the hill and passed a big stone. Suddenly, someone was calling his name. This moment I saw it, it turned out to be a Taoist sitting on a stone. Tao Weng said that Tang Ji is a kind person and should not suffer such suffering. So Daoweng drained the herb juice and applied it to his left eye. As a result, his eye disease was cured. Later, Tang Ji learned that this Taoist Weng was Wong Tai Sin. In order to thank him for his illness, he offered a statue of Wong Tai Sin at home. At night, incense burned us, and that stone was called Wong Tai Sin Stone.

In the year of Song San (A.D. 1087), there was a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, the rivers dried up, and the straw was as dry as hay. People are thirsty. The government went to the Korean Pine Palace in Jin Huashan to ask for rain, and it really came true. Near noon in Jinhua, dew moistened and the drought was eliminated. Huang Da-nei's immortal deeds of "saving lives", "praying for rain and sunshine" and "expressing affection with affection" were awarded by the emperors in the 16th year of Song Dynasty (1 189) and the 3rd year of Li Ding (1262).

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a plague in Xiqiao, Nanhai. Fortunately, Wong Tai Sin passed through here and relieved the people's pain. However, because too many people are sick, there is not enough fairy medicine in the gourd. Wong Tai Sin told everyone not to worry, saying: It doesn't matter if there is no medicine. Just touching his medicine gourd can eliminate the disease, so all the sick people ran to touch Wong Tai Sin's medicine gourd and the plague was eliminated. Later, in order to commemorate this merit of Wong Tai Sin, people carved Wong Tai Sin's medicine gourd in the Wong Tai Sin Holy Garden in Xiqiao Mountain.
