What are the myths and legends of Jizu Mountain in Dali?

According to the elders, there was a black dragon in Erhai Lake in ancient times, which came to Jishan Mountain. Cruel in nature, dominating a Longtan, coming out at two ends every three days to harm creatures. Later, Guanyin's mother built a temple in Longtan where she lived and found a small pond for her to live in. The black dragon, on the other hand, has no intention of repentance, and often turns into a human body to do some unnatural things.

One day, the little black dragon turned into a young monk in Xietan Temple. On the way up the mountain, he stopped pilgrims from flirting with good women, and happened to be seen by the monk who went to the rotten warehouse for alms. Fa Neng couldn't restrain his anger and slapped the little black dragon. The little black dragon hurriedly turned into a breeze and fled back to the pond. The more he thought about it, the more uneconomical he felt, so he worked in the pond. At that time, the wind was blowing hard, the landslide was cut off, and even the walls of the temple were blown down. Pilgrims facing the mountain passed by the pond, were blown down by the strong wind and drowned alive.

On this day, it is the session of Jishan Hidden Light Meeting, and Guanyin is driven by Lotus. Seeing that the little black dragon hasn't changed his bad habits, she thinks she must teach him a lesson, so she jumps out of Mu Cha Walker with one hand on the left and Lucky Boy with the other on the right. The two disciples folded their hands and said, "I'm here to take orders!" " Guanyin was full of anger: "You two bring me the little black dragon at once!"

The monkey and the lucky boy in Mu Cha got the decree, stepped on the petals and walked to the pond with the dragon soul card in their hands. The little black dragon is in a bad mood, and the wind is blowing harder and harder. Suddenly, I felt a thousand silver lights flashed and the sky thundered. Suddenly my soul left my body, my body gradually became smaller, and finally I shrank into a small water snake. The rich boy picked up the little black dragon and went to see Guanyin bodhisattva. Guanyin said, "Beast, what should you do if you don't mend your ways, insult good people, hurt Buddhist pilgrims, damage my disciple's reputation and destroy my famous mountains and incense?" The black dragon trembled with fear, repeatedly begged for mercy and vowed to repent. Bodhisattva is afraid that she will flirt with women again, say a spell and point at her, so that she can only become a female body.

From then on, a beautiful black girl appeared by the pond. She guides pilgrims up the mountain and helps the elderly and infirm to carry their carrots. When people are thirsty, they will also drink the cold water she sent, which is very popular among mountain people.

This story goes around, and it is well known that there is a kind and beautiful black girl on the mountain. Those rich and dissolute sons suddenly took up evil intentions, took advantage of the hidden light meeting, invited seven or eight people and broke into the black girl's cabin. When they see black girls as beautiful as flowers, they can't stop itching. Some of them pulled her clothes, others pulled her hair. The black girl struggled out of the hut and jumped into Longtan. A string of blisters appeared on the water. The prodigal son looked at him and shouted, "What a pity! Unfortunately! " His voice did not fall, there was a loud crash, and the waves were overwhelming, and several people were all involved in the pool.

After that, the pilgrims facing the mountain rarely saw the black girl, and only when she got lost in the forest would she come out to lead the way. When the news that the black girl appeared again came out, an escaped prisoner pretended to be a pilgrim and got lost. He wandered in the depths of the forest, trying to lure the black girl out, but he groped around for a day and a night and finally came back disappointed. He didn't see the shadow of the black girl. It turns out that the black girl often goes to listen to the monk's sermon and can recognize the good and evil of the human heart. Only when a good man was killed did she come out to help.
