Unfortunately, both brothers missed their hometown very much, so they agreed that the elder brother would go back to his hometown to visit relatives first and then take everyone back to China. Unexpectedly, my brother never came back, so my sister-in-law stood on the mountain every day and looked forward to him until she died of old age. In order to commemorate this great love story, later generations named this mountain "Chinese Widow Mountain". The Holy Mountain has a history of 1.5 million years, and the orogeny of the earth's crust is still going on, so we can say that it is a living sandstone mountain.
