The story about sheep: the story of Wuyang and Guangzhou city

There is a statue of Wuyang in Yuexiu Mountain, Guangzhou, which seems to tell people the origin of "Yangcheng". The ram in the middle holds the ear of grain, which means Guangzhou is short for "ear". These five sheep hold their heads high in the south, as if telling a beautiful story to tourists.

This story is called Five Immortals Giving Valley. At the end of the Zhou dynasty, Guangzhou was a thousand miles away, and the grain was not collected. The government is like a wolf, imposing taxes. A teenager's father was put in prison. Three days later, he couldn't pay the rent and had to be fed to sharks. Desperate teenagers cry like apes crying at night, weeping bitterly. His crying alarmed five old emperors. He sent messengers from five sides to save lives by using the sheep. Oriental messengers wear blue skirts and take Qingyang; Northern emissaries wear black dresses and ride black sheep; Southern emissaries wear red skirts and ride red sheep; Western emissaries wear white skirts and ride white sheep; The central emissary wore a yellow dress and rode an antelope. They came to the world with five-colored ears of wheat in their hands.

The five messengers said to the crying boy: You are sad for your father, crying for the people, being filial to your loved ones, worrying about the country and the people, and moving with emotion. "Say that finish, put his hand in the ear grain to the young people; And told him to sow in the valley tonight, water and fertilize, and harvest the grain at dawn.

The immortal folded his hands and wished: "Southeast and northwest, all lakes and seas are the same; Sprinkle 1000 pills today and wish to live ten people! " Zhu Bi disappeared with a wisp of white smoke.

As the Five Immortals said, the teenager planted millet overnight, and sure enough, the golden crops were harvested at dawn the next day.

Saved dad when he had food. The Five Immortals came to earth again and taught his father and son to plant spring crops and harvest autumn crops. When your honor hears this, they are like wolves. Five gods jumped into the air and left the sheep on the ground because they were in a hurry. Officials went to catch sheep, and the five-square-god sheep became five-stone sheep.
