Guilin Folk Myths and Legends _ Guangxi Guilin Folk Myths and Legends

There are many myths and legends in Guilin, many of which are talked about by people. The following are the folk myths and legends of Guilin that I compiled for you, hoping to help you!

Guilin folk myths and legends: Guilin Lijiang River 99 Bay takes a boat from Guilin to Yangshuo. What is the most beautiful scenic spot in Guilin? There are many beaches around the Lijiang River. This has something to do with the Dragon King and Princess Sancui. At first, Yincui gorge wanted to help the builder of the Great Wall in Wan Li. She came from the South China Sea to get stones and wood. When passing through Guilin, an old man revealed that the stone that turned into birds and animals turned back into a stone mountain, blocking the Lijiang River.

As the saying goes, there are clear springs in the mountains and fertile fields by the river. According to legend, Yangshuo in Guilin used to be a large flat land. There is a big river with a width of 6636 feet in the middle. Since the arrival of Yincui gorge, the stone has turned into a mountain and filled the river. It is as difficult to cultivate farmland in this area as to plant flowers on a slate. One year, after 7749 days of drought, the water in the mountain pond dried up, and the cracks in the ground could be put into the soil bowl, and the corn sorghum planted in the ground was so dry that it was squeezed into powder. People sigh, but there is nothing they can do.

One day, everyone was sitting under a big banyan tree and chatting. A white-haired old man said: Sincerely, heaven and earth move. Let's use cedar as incense tomorrow and sincerely pray for rain. ? But where can I find cedar? The white-haired master picked up an axe, walked 72 mountains in a row, climbed 8 1 cliff, and cut back a cedar as thick as a teacup on a cliff. Burn it when you come back. It's delicious.

At this time, a fragrance curled into the jade emperor's thirty-three heavenly palaces. He immediately asked Taibai Zhenjun to visit the worse gate. Taibai Zhenjun went to the worse gate and came back immediately, telling the cause and effect. When the Jade Emperor heard that the river was blocked by the Rocky Mountain, he sent a scarab general and gave him an arrow, saying: Go to the mortal world and tear open the river blocked by the Rocky Mountain to make it wider! ?

General Scarab hurried to the Lijiang River blocked by the Rocky Mountains, waved its four big feet, one left and one right, and pulled it up hard. Who knows that this general scarab doesn't work hard and is a little deaf and blind. The jade emperor originally told him to widen the river, but he mistakenly thought that he had told him to bend it. So it tore the Lijiang River into seven twists and turns, and the 160 Li waterway from Guilin to Yangshuo was pulled out of 99 bays and 64 beaches.

As soon as the river opened and the water circulated, the drought eased. General Scarab happily returned to heaven to hand in the imperial edict. The Jade Emperor learned that General Scarab had violated the imperial edict and ordered him to be beheaded. Taibai Zhenjun quickly began to play:? Although General Scarab bent the river, it was quickly torn open in the end, which relieved the people's suffering and made up for their mistakes. ? The Jade Emperor saved the general from the death penalty and sent him down to earth to climb the mountain as a tortoise.

Now, let's take a boat to Lijiang and a boat to Jilong Store. On the left bank, we can see that there seems to be a stone turtle climbing the mountain, that is, the general who misread the imperial edict of the Jade Emperor.

Guilin folk myths and legends: The old gentleman poked the hole spring, and there was a hidden mountain at the end of Lijun Road in Guilin. The mountain is small and exquisite, just like a finely carved treasure. This mountain is connected up and down, and the levels are scattered, forming a wonderful six-hole hidden mountain. There are many green springs connected by pools under the cave. Deep in the clear spring, the mountainside is clear and lovely; The bottom of the cave at the lower part of Longchi is clear and transparent; Jinguitan, Hidden Spring, Longchi, Cave Road and Mountain Spring are interconnected, which has become a unique landscape of Guilin Cave. According to the old man, the wonderful scenery and spring water were made by the immortal family.

According to legend, a long time ago, this hidden mountain was a hill made of mud and stones. There are barren hills all around, and there are no springs everywhere. If it doesn't rain for three days, it will become a place where grass dries up and rocks rot. People who live here are like planting flowers in a pot, and they have to draw water and water the flowers in taohuajiang every day. At that time, the water in taohuajiang was so angry and poisonous that it was impossible to cook and drink. People who live on the edge of the hidden mountain have to cross the western mountain and run to the foot of the monkey to get edible mountain spring water. In this way, people who live here worry about water every day. The water used for eating is as valuable as the oil used for cooking. So although this place is flat, only two couples with nowhere to live live live here.

One day, there was a beggar with white hair and rags like a mop, leaning on a bamboo cane one head taller than himself? With tears on his face, he staggered and panted to the house and begged the woman for water.

The woman's man went up the mountain to cut wood. She was busy making pig's trotters at home and saw the old beggar standing at the gate, looking skinny and pathetic, no matter how dirty he was, he looked like a man jumping out of coal ash. The woman immediately ran out of the door, helped the old beggar into the door, conveniently moved an armchair to let him sit down, and then hurriedly took a big bowl from the cupboard and scooped water from the tank, hoping to give the old beggar enough water to cook for him. I didn't know there wasn't a drop of water in the water tank. She quickly brought a flower melon (flower melon: crispy, sweet and refreshing melon with patterns on the surface, so it is called flower melon) for men to go up the mountain to quench their thirst, handed it to the old beggar and said, Grandpa, eat this melon to quench your thirst first. Wait patiently at home. I'll get the water, and then I'll pick up the bucket and go.

The old beggar waited at home for a long time, only to see the woman sweating like a pig, carrying a load of water and entering the door.

The beggar asked, Sister-in-law, what took you so long to fetch water? The woman put down the water, wiped her sweat, and answered:? Grandpa, don't take it amiss, because there is no drinking fountain near here, and there is water at the foot of the mountain ten miles away. You came back late and made your old man thirsty for a long time. ? Then he scooped up a bowl of water and handed it to the old beggar. The old beggar took the water, drank it in one breath, and said to the woman, it's so difficult to carry water. Let me dig a well for you! ? Grandpa, you don't know, we have dug countless places in this place, but there is no water. You don't have to work hard, because you are weak! ? Never mind, let me try! ?

The old beggar stood up, walked out on crutches, and became energetic and powerful. The woman followed him to the hillside, only to see him waving crutches, poking holes, prying holes, knocking a mountain up and down in one go, and there were stones and holes everywhere. There is water in the hole, which is cool and clean. When a woman sees the clear spring water, she is as happy as soaking in a honey pot. She was so sweet that she just drank the sweet and cool spring water and stopped looking at the old beggar. When she drank enough spring water and woke up, she wanted the old beggar to thank her, but she looked around and didn't see it She immediately ran around the hole to find it. Where is the shadow of the old beggar? Only then did she realize that the old beggar turned out to be a fairy.

In the evening, when the man came back, the woman poked the old beggar out of the hole, ejected him from the spring and told him what he looked like. When the man ran up the cave, he saw a big stone standing on the cliff, just like the old gentleman mentioned by our ancestors. So, he decided that Laojun came to earth to open this strange cave and mountain spring, so he named this cave Laojun Cave.

Because this spring water is made by the immortal family, it is better to make bean sprouts with this water than with other water. Bean sprouts not only grow fast, but also are tender and fat. The bean sprouts in Yinshan Mountain are the best to sell and are very famous. Until now, everyone knows them!

Guilin folk myths and legends: There is a flying Phoenix Mountain near the old man in Guilin. It's like drawing silk in a spider's stomach to explain why this mountain has such a beautiful name. This is a rather long story.

According to legend, there lived a family at the foot of a mountain, and the husband and wife made a living by going up the mountain to get firewood. Coptis chinensis has been mixed with gall for eighteen years, and both of them have thick lines on their smooth bamboo shoots. This woman gave birth to a daughter at the age of forty-two. She is bright and lovely, just like the fifteenth moon. The two couples are as happy as picking the stars in the sky and as happy as finding the treasure of the Dragon Palace. They thought for three days and nights and named their daughter Jinfeng.

Jinfeng had just turned five when her father was arrested and killed by officers and men. How many times did my mother cry and want to hang herself with a rope? Seeing Jinfeng crying with her legs in her arms, she wanted to die with her mother. Mother's heart softened and her hands became numb. The rope she picked up fell down again, and she cried with her daughter in her arms, and she couldn't bear to hang herself any more.

Jinfeng follows her mother up the mountain to cut wild vegetables every day. When I got home, I helped my mother scrape the hemp skin and pulled the straw (straw: refers to the heart of the rice ear). Mother and daughter make a living by playing straw sandals and selling rattan baskets. Year after year, mother's head grew white hair, and Jinfeng's head grew long black hair until her feet were bent. Mother is old, so is Jinfeng. Jinfeng is more beautiful than phoenix and more charming than peony. The goose egg has a pair of symmetrical eyebrows and phoenix eyes on its face, and the cherry mouth speaks like an oriole in spring. Jinfeng not only has a beautiful appearance like a hibiscus, but also has a set of exquisite handicrafts that can be woven and embroidered. She knitted a fish and threw it into the river to swim. She weaves a dragon and can spin on the ground. She embroidered a flower and bees danced and played on it. She embroidered a bird on the brocade, and birds often fly on the brocade. Girls from all directions came to ask for the dowry of Jinfeng embroidery.

One spring, Jinfeng's mother fell ill. She wants to embroider more dowry for others and take some money to treat her mother. One day, she embroidered from morning till midnight and fell asleep in a daze. Suddenly I saw the golden light. A girl wearing a green embroidered skirt with sleeves came over and said to her affectionately, I am a fairy bird. I'm so tired to see you embroider a dowry for others every day. I'm here to embroider a needle for you, so that you can embroider birds like a shuttle. ? Say and walk away with a smile. Then I saw a red light. A girl in red came over and said to her gently. I am a fairy flower. I wonder if you are willing to help others embroider their dowry and exchange money to treat their mothers. I'm here to carry the embroidery needle, so that you can embroider the blooming flowers. ? Then he nodded slightly and left.

At this moment, Jinfeng suddenly saw a room full of flowers and birds singing together. She woke up from her dream, rubbed her eyes and looked around, but no one was there. Look at the console table. There are really two embroidery needles and two circles of colorful brocade on it. Jin Feng was surprised and happy. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times in a row, thanking the nun for her help. Get up, pick up the needle, put on the thread and embroider it. A needle in the hand is faster than flying. A picture of flowers will be embroidered in two days. Jinfeng put this flower on the bamboo pole in the hall and went into the fire room to cook porridge. I don't know if the porridge is not cooked yet, but a piece of bees and butterflies is flying all over the house, and the fragrance is everywhere. Jinfeng walked out of the kitchen and saw the flowers on the bamboo pole suddenly spread out. The embroidered flowers are tender and wet, and the leaves and stamens seem to be sprinkled with shiny dew. Butterflies fly on dragons and bees rise and fall on flowers. Jinfeng happily ran to help her mother look at it. The old man smelled the flowers, watched the bees flying butterflies, and laughed, but he got better.

Jinfeng embroidered a picture of a hundred flowers, so that bees could not drive away and butterflies could not drive away and spread. Come to see strange people, such as ants pulling strings. A few days later, it arrived at the government. The government sent two officials to investigate with a grain of salt. Hearing this, the officers are all true. I went back to the mansion and told it everything I saw.

Hearing this, the government and Taiwan Province rushed to the jinfenggu with their troops. When they saw the picture of flowers, it was really chinese odyssey, and when they saw the gorgeous appearance of Jinfeng, they felt bad. He pretended to smile and said, girl! You are smart and capable, and you can embroider such a good brocade. As long as you come to Beijing with embroidered brocade and pay tribute to the emperor, your mother and daughter will be prosperous and enjoy it. ?

Jinfeng found out, and the court wanted to use her to please the emperor, so she said bitterly, I was born in a peasant family, and I don't want to be greedy for wealth, so I don't need adults to take me to Beijing! ?

Seeing that Jinfeng didn't listen to the instructions, the government forced Jinfeng's mother to bring flowers to Beijing and tell the emperor face to face. Jinfeng had a brainwave and said, My Lord, this painting is embroidered with only a hundred flowers, but there are still many birds flying towards the phoenix. After I embroider the whole painting, I will personally take it with you to Beijing and present it to the king in three days. ? Hearing this, the government headquarters left with the troops.

After the government left, the poor people in the four townships advised Jin Feng and her mother to run away quickly. Jinfeng said that the world is full of officials, and it is the same wherever you flee. Mother cried in her arms. Jinfeng said to her neighbor with tears in her eyes. As long as my uncles are willing to help me take my mother away, I have my own way to deal with the government. ?

As soon as the villagers took Jinfeng's mother away, the government sent people around the mountain. Jinfeng is not afraid: embroidering birds on a hundred flowers picture day and night. After three days and three nights, the birds are embroidering in Phoenix. The fourth day early in the morning, the government really brought a group of officers and carried an eight-person sedan chair to pick up Jinfeng.

As soon as Jinfeng heard the sound of knocking, she knew that the mansion was coming, picked up the flower and bird map and ran to the mountain behind the house. As soon as I saw the mansion, I jumped out of the sedan chair and chased it with the officers. Jinfeng was chased to the top of the mountain, and then the cliff. At this time, the government station caught up with the panting Jinfeng and reached for her. Jinfeng quickly put a picture of flowers and birds on her body, and the flowers immediately grew branches and opened flowers. The flower branch pierced Futai's hand, and the pollen splashed into Futai's eyes, and he couldn't move a step. When the officers saw the bow and arrow, they wanted to shoot Jinfeng. The birds on the bird map flapped their wings and flew past, pecking a group of followers into blind people and standing on the rocky mountain one by one, unable to move. At this time, I suddenly heard a bang, the sky shook and the mountain collapsed, and the government and officers were crushed under the rock. In the rock explosion, a golden phoenix flew out of the mountain and walked with her golden phoenix for 33 days. According to legend, Jinfeng has since become an embroiderer of the fairy in the Temple of Heaven.

Later, people released evil dog officials and rode the phoenix to become fairy mountain, known as Fengfei Mountain.
