Talk about myths and legends in Chongqing

Goddess peak is famous for three reasons: First, Song Yu invented the story of the tryst between King Xiang of Chu and the goddess in Goddess Fu; Second, it is said that Yao Ji came to earth to help Yu control water; Third, a stone really stands on the top of the mountain, shaped like a girl. In ancient China mythology, goddess peak was the incarnation of Yao Ji, the youngest daughter of the Queen Mother of the West who helped Yu Xia to open a river to remove stagnant water. After the flood was eliminated, he resolutely decided to stay in Wushan to keep the ship safe, thus winning the respect and worship of future generations. According to "Wushan County Records", "Yao Ji, the daughter of Chi Di, died because she couldn't work, and was buried in Wushan, which was a goddess." On the other side of goddess peak, there is an existing book-giving desk under Fengfei Peak, which is said to be the place where Yao Ji gave books to Yu Xia. The goddess temples on the east and west sides of the original county were later renamed Ningzhen Temple. According to legend, Yao Ji, the twenty-third daughter of the Queen Mother of the West, lived in Yaochi during the Xiazhi flood control period. She is smart and beautiful, kind-hearted, lively and cheerful, and can't bear the lonely life in the palace. So, on August 15, she invited eleven sisters around her to steal the earth and travel around. When I came to Wushan, I saw twelve dragons making waves, and Dayu, who was in charge of water control, was also surrounded by floods. Yao Ji admired Dayu very much and decided to help him build water conservancy projects. He gave Dayu a heavenly book to protect the peace and control the water. Unexpectedly, before Yao Ji could tell Dayu how to decipher this gobbledygook, he and his sisters were brought back to Yaochi by heavenly soldiers sent by the Western Queen Mother. The twelve fairies have long been tired of life in Yaochi Fairy Palace. They broke free from the chains of God and returned to earth to help Dayu dredge the gorge and relieve the flood. From then on, Yao Ji fell in love with the Three Gorges, running between the peaks of Wushan Mountain all day, killing monsters for boat people, driving tigers and leopards for woodcutter, and spreading sex for farmers ... Twelve sisters forgot to go back to Yaochi. Over time, they have become twelve wonderful and beautiful peaks standing on both sides of Wuxia, which are called "Twelve Wushan Peaks". Yao Ji is an outstanding representative of the twelve fairies. Therefore, the peak she set is the highest, and she is the first to meet the morning glow every day. Therefore, she is also known as "Wang Xiafeng".
