According to legend, the Dragon King of the East China Sea invited the Jade Emperor to a banquet in the Dragon Palace. The Jade Emperor returned drunk and forgot to take the gold seal with him. This is what I forgot. The Dragon King ordered the turtle to carry the seal and return it. The turtle misunderstood that it meant dragging the seal and returning it, so he dragged the seal away. The turtle was born with the ability to carry but not to drag. It was so exhausted that it forgot the way to the sky. This is the second forgetfulness.

When the Jade Emperor sobered up, he couldn't see the gold seal. He suspected that someone had stolen it, so he ordered the King of Tota to go down to the realm to search. The decree was: No matter whose hand the gold seal fell into, he would be killed and not alive. When the King of Pagoda went down to the lower realm, he saw that the immortal was pointing the way to the lost tortoise, so he sacrificed the sacred tower in his hand, and instantly turned the turtle and the immortal into solid stones. Who would have thought that in his haste, he actually forgot that the "Golden Seal" and the "Sacred Tower" were not alive, but turned into solid stones together! These are the "Three Forgets".

"Sanwangping" got its name and was passed down from generation to generation. It was passed down for several years, but later generations forgot its real name and called it "Shanwangping". There are still three ruins and landscapes left today: "The Divine Turtle Drags the Seal", "The Immortal Guiding the Road", and the "Tianwang Divine Tower" and the Gate to the Heavenly Road can be examined.
