How is Linyi called "Turtle City"? What are the historical stories and legends?

Today's editorial brings you the legend of turtle city in Linyi. I hope this helps you.

Speaking of Linyi, it is still very famous. I have always heard about this place, but it is not a modern big city, so it must be a famous historical city. Linyi is said to be called "Turtle Back City". Then why do you call it that? What's the story behind this? Let's analyze it together! Let's see if this is a story or something else.

Linyi Guibei City is just a legend!

It is said that the tortoise is protecting Linyi. Li Siguang predicted that Linyi is one of the four major earthquake-stricken areas in China. The other three places have a sense of shock, only Linyi is safe and sound. It is said that the tortoise is protecting Linyi!

The four earthquakes predicted by Li Siguang in that year were:

Hebei Province

Sichuan Province

Xingtai

Linyi

three-fourths

Hebei Province

Sichuan Province

Xingtai

There was an earthquake.

Xingtai earthquake:15: 29 on March 8, 1966,15: 29 on March 8, 1966, a strong earthquake of magnitude 6.8 occurred in the east of Longyao County, Xingtai District, Hebei Province, with a focal depth of 10 km and an epicentre intensity of nine degrees. After the earthquake, earthquakes of magnitude 6.7 and 7.2 occurred in the southeast of Ningjin County on March 22, and an earthquake of magnitude 6.2 occurred in Shulunan in the north of the old earthquake zone on March 26. On March 29th, an earthquake of magnitude 6 occurred in Julubei, east of the old seismic belt. Within 2 1 day from March 8 to 29, five earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above occurred continuously in Xingtai area, the largest of which was an earthquake of magnitude 7.2+06. 19 in the southeast of Ningjin County on March 22. The epicentre depth of this earthquake is 9 kilometers, and the epicentre intensity is 10 degrees. This earthquake group is collectively called Xingtai earthquake.

Tangshan earthquake:1976 July 28th at 3: 42pm, 7: 06pm and 7: 00pm again. In the afternoon 18: 45, an earthquake of magnitude 1 occurred in Luanxian. In June165438+1October 65438+May of the same year, an earthquake of magnitude 6.5 occurred in Ninghe. The magnitude 9 earthquake and aftershocks after the main earthquake further aggravated the earthquake disaster. Tangshan earthquake has no obvious foreshock, the aftershock lasts for a long time, and the attenuation process fluctuates greatly. The aftershocks have not subsided for more than 20 years, and there are still earthquakes of magnitude 4 or so.

Most buildings in Tangshan were basically razed to the ground or seriously damaged. A strong earthquake interrupted traffic, paralyzed communication, cut off water and electricity in the city, twisted into a snake-shaped railway track, and caused a large area of cracks, splash, sand and collapse on the surface, accompanied by light before the earthquake. More than 242,000 people died and 6,543,800 people were injured. Neighboring Tianjin has also been damaged to varying degrees. The affected area covers Chongqing and other 14 provinces and cities with a radius of 250km.

Sichuan Earthquake: 12 At 2: 28 pm on May 28th, a strong earthquake of magnitude 8.0 occurred in Sichuan Province, with its epicenter in Wenchuan County, Aba Prefecture. The earthquake caused heavy casualties, more than 30,000 people died and countless houses collapsed.

The following is the specific content of this legend.

It is said that a turtle, Jia Gui, appeared in the Tianhe River in Linyi a long time ago. This magical turtle is very big, with a head like a hill and eyes like lightning.

Electricity, walking in the clouds and driving in the fog, is very powerful. He can push down the hill with a wave of his hand. He blinked and the earth began to turn. One day, it ate a kind of fairy grass called "drunken grass" in Tianhe and suddenly felt groggy. It ran from Tianhe to all parts of the world, running around, crashing into hundreds of high-rise buildings, destroying a large area of fertile land, and making many people homeless and displaced. However, the tortoise is very happy. It has never seen such a vast land, because large aquatic animals are not allowed to land in heaven. He ran and ran on the grassland, looking around like a curious child from time to time. However, at this time, the palace of hell is suffering. Ghosts are everywhere, and Yan can't help but gather together in the sky. When the Jade Emperor knew this, Long Yan was very angry and wanted to kill the tortoise, but he thought for a while: "Why not punish it?" ? Isn't this more intimate? Thinking of this, he waved his hand and wrote, "As a spirit beast, the lower world has committed a crime. Capital crime can be avoided, but living crime cannot escape. "He also punished the sacred turtle because it built a city in the underworld and never turned over. In this way, the tortoise was caught, and there was "Ji 'an".

A day has passed, a year has passed, and century after century has passed. The tortoise was on its back and never dared to move again. A long history can be traced back to16th century. On the last day, it was hot and dry, and it hadn't rained for several days. After all, the tortoise is also a water beast! He also wants to drink water. He had no choice but to risk rushing over. He shook his head tentatively to see if there was any movement. He took a few steps carefully. He became bold when he was sure there was no problem. He used his own skills to walk in the clouds, drive in the fog and run like a wild horse, completely forgetting that there was a city behind him. This will hurt the people of Linyi city. They just felt dizzy, the sky was shaking and they didn't even let out a scream. The city is in ruins. The Yi River burst, engulfing vast fields and villages.

The tortoise ran to the East China Sea and drained it. When he was happy, he suddenly thought of the man on his back and shouted "No". He knew he was in trouble. He wanted to visit Linyi, so he suddenly became an old woman in rags. Outside the city, he saw an old man sitting on a fallen tree, staring blankly at the ruins of his house, as if thinking. The tortoise asked tentatively, "Hey, brother, I haven't eaten for three days." Can I have something to eat? Hearing this, the old man bit his lip, took out a shriveled and shapeless steamed bread from his pocket and said, "I have nothing to eat." "The rest were destroyed by the earthquake. Come on, let's share it! " After that, he tore the steamed bread in half and gave the big one to the tortoise. The tortoise is a little flattered, because it has lived for thousands of years and now knows what love is. "What a kind Linyi people! But what did I give them? It is hunger and cold, displacement, divorce and endless disasters. Damn me. " It regrets it very much and is determined to make up for its mistakes. It will never do anything wrong to Linyi people again. It swears, "even if the sky falls, I will hold it with my head." Even if the ground sinks, I will support it with my legs. Even if the flood comes, I will block it with my body and never let Linyi suffer any harm. " Since then, he has defended his position and occupied Linyi City. When fighting there, Linyi was in good weather, with a bumper harvest every year and nothing happened. Some authoritative sources predict that Linyi is one of the four major earthquake-stricken areas in China, and the other three have a sense of shock, only Linyi is safe and sound.
