What are the stories about the Great Wall?

1 Legend of the Great Wall-"Yumen Pass"

In ancient times, in the west of Xiaofangcheng, Gansu Province, there was a post station called "Horse Lost Rabbit", also called "Horse Lost Rabbit". Caravans have to pass through this place to transport jade from the border to the Central Plains. The terrain here is very complicated: swamps are everywhere, ravines are criss-crossing, forests cover the sun, and weeds are everywhere. Whenever caravans carrying jade catch up with the hot weather, they always like to travel in the cool at night in order to avoid heatstroke of people and animals during the day. So whenever cavalry comes here, it is always dark and can't tell the direction. Even the old horses who often travel back and forth on this road will be confused and difficult to find their way. That's how the name "lost horse" came from.

There is a caravan selling jade and silk. It travels along this road all the year round and often gets lost in the "lost horse" Once, the caravan got lost as soon as it entered the "lost horse". People were very anxious, and suddenly a lone goose landed not far away. A young man in the caravan quietly caught the wild goose. He is kind-hearted and holds it in his arms, ready to take it out of the "lost horse" and then let it go. After a while, I saw the wild goose purring at the young man with tears: "Gollum, give me food to get lost." After listening to this, the young man suddenly realized that he had left the goose because he was too hungry to fly, so he immediately took his own dry food and water to feed it. After eating, the geese flew into the sky and circled constantly, leading the caravan out of the "horse lost road" and successfully reaching the destination Xiaofang City. After a while, the caravan got lost in the "lost horse", and the wild goose flew in the air and cried, "Gollum, the caravan is lost." Whoops, the square plate is inlaid with jade. "Call while flying, while leading the caravan out of the way. Only the young man who saved the wild goose understood what the wild goose said and told the leader's boss: "The wild goose told us to put a luminous dark green jade in the small square city, and the caravan would never get lost again when it had a goal. "Hearing this, the boss felt that a glowing dark green jade was worth several thousand two hundred pieces of silver, and he could not bear to part with it, so he did not agree.

Unexpectedly, the next time the caravan got lost in the "lost horse", it could not find water for several days. The camel was panting with thirst, and everyone was thirsty and dying. Just then, the wild goose flew up again and shouted in the air, "The caravan is lost, the square plate is inlaid with jade, don't give up jet, and never lead the way." Hearing this, the young man hurried to tell the boss. The boss panicked and asked the young man what to do. The young man said, "You should kneel down and swear to the goose:' You must be inlaid with jade and never break your word.' . "The boss immediately knelt down and swore to the wild goose as the young man said. When the geese heard this, they spun in the air for a while, which led to the caravan's "lost horse" again, and the caravan was saved. After arriving in Xiaofangcheng, the boss never dared to love money again. He immediately picked out the biggest and best glowing dark green jade and put it on the top of the building. Whenever night falls, this jade shines brightly and can be clearly seen dozens of miles away in Fiona Fang. Caravans used to have goals and won't get lost again. Since then, Xiaofangcheng has been renamed "Yumenguan". In fact, Yumenguan was built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because it was an important traffic artery leading to the western regions in ancient China. Hetian jade stone was imported from the western regions and entered the customs from then on, hence the name.

According to legend, during the reign of Qin Shihuang, the labor was heavy, and young men and women Fan Xiliang and Meng Jiangnu got married for three days. The groom was forced to start building the Great Wall, and soon died of hunger, cold and fatigue, and his bones were buried under the Great Wall. Meng Jiangnv wore a warm coat and went through a lot of hardships. Wan Li came to the Great Wall to look for her husband, but what he got was her bad news. She wept bitterly at the gate of the city for three days and nights, and the city was torn apart, revealing Fan Xiliang's body. Meng Jiangnv threw herself into the sea in despair.

Dingcheng Brick refers to a brick placed on the back eaves of the West Wengcheng gatehouse in Jiayuguan.

According to legend, during the Ming Dynasty, there was a customs repairman named Yi who was proficient in the 99 algorithm. As long as all the buildings are calculated by him, the materials used for labor are very accurate and economical. The supervisor who supervised customs clearance asked him to count the number of bricks used in Jiayuguan. After detailed calculation, Yi Zhankai said, "99,999 bricks are needed." The supervisor handed out the brick and said, "One more, one less, cut off your head and punish the craftsman for three years." After the completion, only one brick was left, which was placed on the back eaves of the West Wengcheng gatehouse. The supervisor was overjoyed when he learned that he wanted to deduct the wages of Iraq and all craftsmen. Unexpectedly, Yi said unhurriedly, "That brick was put by the gods, and it is a fixed city brick. If it is moved, the tower will collapse. " The supervisor is in charge, and dare not pursue it again. Since then, this brick has been put there, and no one has put it.

In fact, Yumenguan was built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because it was an important traffic artery leading to the western regions in ancient China. Hetian jade stone was imported from the western regions and entered the customs from then on. Therefore, the brick named Dingcheng refers to a brick placed on the back eaves of the gate of Jiayuguan West Wengcheng.

According to legend, during the Ming Dynasty, there was a customs repairman named Yi who was proficient in the 99 algorithm. As long as all the buildings are calculated by him, the materials used for labor are very accurate and economical. The supervisor who supervised customs clearance asked him to count the number of bricks used in Jiayuguan. After detailed calculation, Yi Zhankai said, "99,999 bricks are needed."

Unexpectedly, Yi said unhurriedly, "That brick was put by the gods, and it is a fixed city brick. If it is moved, the tower will collapse. " The supervisor is in charge, and dare not pursue it again. Since then, this brick has been put in place, and no one dares to move it. Now, this brick still remains on Jiayuguan Tower. .

When Jiayuguan City was first built, thousands of stone strips 2 meters long, 0.5 meters wide and 0.3 meters thick were needed. After the craftsman chisels the stone strips in Montenegro, he can't lift them and the cart can't walk. The mountain is too high and the road is too far to transport. Everyone is worried while cutting stone strips. Seeing that winter is coming, the stone strips have not been shipped out of the mountains. If the construction period is delayed, it will be small without salary, and this head will be difficult to protect. Everyone sighed for a long time. Just then, suddenly there was a muffled thunder from the top of the mountain, and a piece of brocade fell from the white clouds. All the craftsmen quickly caught it and saw several lines looming on it. After reading it, everyone suddenly realized and did it. When winter came, people built a road from the mountain to Guancheng, poured water on the road to form an ice lane, and then put stones on the ice lane to slide and transport. As a result, the stone strips were successfully transported to Jiayuguan City, which not only did not delay the construction period, but also saved a lot of construction period. In order to thank God for his protection, many craftsmen built temples near Guancheng to worship the gods, which became a must-visit place for craftsmen after they started their careers.
