Mount Wutai originally had a harsh climate, with extremely cold winters and unbearable heat in summers, making it impossible to grow crops. When Manjushri passed by, he saw people living in poverty, so he went to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea to borrow the Cooling Stone. From now on, it will be cool and comfortable in Mount Wutai in the summer, but this cool stone was originally used by the Dragon King's son to rest after returning to the Dragon Palace. The son of the Dragon King, who couldn't find the stone, came to Mount Wutai and flattened the original five peaks in a rage. A platform was formed on the top of the mountain. Later, Manjushri Bodhisattva subdued the Dragon King's sons and asked them to spread rainwater on the platform to benefit the local people.
