On the TV Series Lotus Lantern

1. I don't think so. Erlang God and Six Meishan Brothers became sworn brothers, so the Seven Sages of Meishan refer to Erlang God and Seven Meishan Brothers.

2. The story of Lotus Lantern evolved from Erlang God's cutting Taoshan to save his mother. At first, the story of "chopping Taoshan to save the mother" was definitely about Yang Jian, and later it was added to the story, which turned out to be the story of a lotus lantern. Laughing is well-founded, because the story of "Erlang axe chopping Taoshan to save mother" has obvious ancient myth color, while the story of Aquilaria sinensis is obviously much more fashionable and formed relatively late. But when you compare them, you will find that the two stories come down in one continuous line, including the relationship between the characters, mother and son, nephew and uncle.

Lotus lantern originated from folklore.

5. Folklore: "Liu Xiang, a scholar of the Han Dynasty, went to Beijing to take the exam, passed by Huashan Temple, and molested Shen Huayue's third wife in the poetry temple. The third wife was angry and wanted to kill her, and was told that she had a three-night marriage with Liu. The Third Virgin married Liu. After three nights, Liu sent a piece of agarwood as a farewell and told him to give birth to a son tomorrow. Three Notre Dame was pregnant, and her brother Erlang God observed that she was angry with Huashan Mountain and pressed the Three Notre Dame in the cave below. The third virgin gave birth in the cave, called "Aquilaria sinensis"; He also sent a hag to his father. When Aquilaria sinensis became an adult, she looked for her mother Huashan. When she met He Xiangu, she was endowed with the immortal power. She stole Xuanhua's axe and fought against her uncle Erlang God in Huashan.

Erlang asked the gods to help him, and Aquilaria got the cooperation of all the gods. Uncle and nephew each showed their magical powers, and the gods fought in melee, and the outcome was unpredictable. After the Jade Emperor ordered Taibai Venus to talk about an armistice, Aquilaria split Huashan with an axe, rescued the Virgin Mary, and the mother and son reunited. Today, there is a huge stone in the west of Cui Yun Palace, the Lotus Peak in Huashan Mountain, with a length of 10 meters. It is divided into three parts, such as a knife and an axe. Later people called it "axe chopping stone", which is said to be the legacy of axe chopping Huashan when Aquilaria sinensis saved his mother.
