The story of folklore 1

On the west bank of the river in Wuzhen, there is an ancient ginkgo tree, which is tall and big. It takes three people to hold hands to hug. It is simple and vigorous, and you can see the top of the tree ten miles away. Ancient ginkgo biloba has been passed down from the Tang Dynasty, with a history of 1000 years.

This ginkgo tree is related to a hero in the Tang Dynasty. During the Yuanhe period, there was a brave general named Wu, who was called General Wu. General Wu loves his country and his people, and is strong in martial arts and brave and good at fighting. Since the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the strength of the central government has gradually weakened, and local officials are full of domineering and have become kings.

At that time, Li Qi, the secretariat of Zhejiang Province, also wanted to seek hegemony and sent troops to revolt, which made this area in a state of chaos and people in distress. The emperor ordered General Wu Zan and Vice General Wu Qi to lead a crusader, and they pursued him until the rebels fled. When the officers and men chased Chexi River in Wuzhen, Li Qi suddenly hung up the death-free card and demanded a truce.

General Wu camped on the spot and stood by to fight again. Who knows that the rebels attacked the camp in the middle of the night, and General Wu rose to meet the enemy. Richie retreated to Chexi River and quickly escaped from a stone bridge. No sooner had General Wu got off the bridge than he was shot dead by a flurry of arrows. It turned out that a trap was set under the bridge and General Wu was assassinated. The green dragon colt under General Wu's crotch was shot by an arrow and ran back to the west east of the car, where he died!

Wu got up, killed the rebels, buried General Wu in the west of Chexi River and built a grave for him. Strange to say, on the same night, people saw General Wu on the new grave, shining a little red light and the sound of horses' hooves. The next day, a green ginkgo tree appeared on the grave, which quickly grew into a towering tree. It is strange that this ginkgo tree never bears fruit. Everyone says that this ginkgo is the embodiment of General Wu.

Because Richie's rebellion was put down, the people were saved from war. In memory of this beloved general, people built a temple of General Wu in Wuzhen, and hung a plaque in the temple, which read &; General Dashu &; Five words. From then on, General Wu became a local god and blessed the local people.

This legend is widely circulated! From the origin of Wuzhen, it is also a folk saying that Hexi is named after General Wu! Hedong named Qingzhen after the green dragon colt of General Wu!

Folklore 2

Li Shizhen bid farewell to the patient with a cold and went to see a doctor elsewhere. After a busy day at home, just sitting on the bench, the patient's son came panting and said that after eating the black fish cooked with ginger, his eyes became bigger, his face turned white, his tongue was tied and his breathing was uneven.

Hearing this, Li Shizhen thought: No, this is a matter of life and death! Fortunately, Li Shizhen's father, Li Yanwen, came back from digging medicine. When he heard this, he grabbed some herbs and rushed to the home of a cold patient with Li Shizhen.

Mr. Li Lao is also an old Chinese doctor. He asked the patient to decoct the medicine to detoxify, and then decoct the medicine to cure the cold when his condition improved. In just three days, the patient can get up and work. What the hell is going on here? Li Shizhen asked his father. Father told him that cooking snakehead with ginger would poison people. This incident dealt a great blow to Li Shizhen. He didn't sleep well for several nights in a row, and the scene of a cold patient being poisoned has been in his mind. He made up his mind that in order to cure diseases all over the world and understand the medicinal properties of all Chinese herbal medicines, he prayed everywhere and collected medicines to practice medicine. Everything comes to him who waits. He finally became a medical sage and wrote Compendium of Materia Medica.

Until now, there are still some places where ginger is not used to cook snakehead.

On New Year's Eve, every child can get lucky money.

The earliest lucky money appeared in the Han dynasty, also known as winning money. It is not circulated in the market, but cast as an ornamental in the form of coins, which has the function of avoiding evil spirits. Coins are generally cast with &; Long live &; And. Eliminate all evils &; Auspicious words of auspicious patterns such as dragons and phoenixes, tortoise snakes and Pisces.

There is a story about lucky money. Legend has it that there was a man named &; Cherish & little devil with black and white hands, he comes out to touch the forehead of a sleeping child every New Year's Eve. The child will have a high fever after being touched, talk in his sleep, and become a dementia fool after the fever is gone. People are afraid that something special will hurt their children and stay up all night. This is called &; Shouchong &; .

It is said that there is a family named Guan in Jiaxing, and the husband and wife have children in their later years and cherish them very much. On New Year's Eve, in order to prevent &; In order to harass and tease the children constantly, the children wrapped eight copper coins in red paper, then opened and opened them again. After sleeping, eight wrapped copper coins are put on the pillow.

In the middle of the night, an evil wind blew, and the little black boy was about to touch the child's head with his bare hands. Suddenly, the child's pillow burst into a golden light and ran away screaming.

So the story spread, and everyone followed suit. I wrapped the money in red paper on New Year's Eve, and I didn't dare to harass it again.

So people call this kind of money &; Gamble with money &; , & cherish & Use &; Years old&is pronounced &, and over time, it is called &; Lucky money &; Yes

I don't know when it was. There were big black girls, two white girls and three girls who did everything.

Anyway, it's far from it. At that time, the heavenly king Lao Tzu had just separated heaven and earth, and there was nothing on the ground. Heavenly King Lao Tzu dug up three sweat stains under his arm and squeezed them into two men and one woman (three women), which were big and black. Because when pinching the third person, Tianwang accidentally pinched one of his armpit hairs, so he pinched a girl.

Big black came to the ground and saw strange stones. He waved a mountain whip and drove them away in piles like sheep. Since then, the stones have been piled up and turned into flat dams. Later, he was hungry, and before he finished driving the stones on the ground, he shouldered the whip and returned to the sky.

After Erbai came to the earth, he lifted the water bottle upside down, trying to fill it up and rearrange it. He drank water for three days and nights, and his mouth was dripping with hunger. He couldn't stand it, so he put away the water bottle and turned to the sky. The water that falls on the ground becomes the sea where it falls and gathers, and the river where it falls and cannot gather.

Let's start with big black and white. I saw three girls create everything in the sky and come to the earth to share things with them.

Folklore 6

A long time ago, there was a couple at the top of the snow-capped mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. They gave birth to three daughters. The elder sister's name is Jinsha, the second sister is Lancang, and the third sister is a girl. All three sisters are beautiful. Big sister is hardworking and kind, gentle and kind; The second sister is generous and loyal; Third sister is arrogant and irritable. The three sisters have grown up and their parents want to marry them to the East. The elder sister said that everything was arranged by her parents, but the third sister refused and decided to marry in the south. Mother persuaded: the mountains in the south are steep, so you should think more. The water spilled by the married daughter will never come back. Third sister said angrily, I have made up my mind, and no one can stop me. As a result, my sister and sister parted ways, which made Miss Lan very worried. She wants to marry the docile elder sister to the East, but she can't bear to part with the third sister who is not sensible. After thinking about Kuya for nine days, he finally said to his parents: ABBA, AMBA, let me accompany Sanmao to the south!

Three sisters got married at the same time, the sun moved away colorful silk threads, birds chirped, animals danced, trees lined up to get married, and flowers paved the way ahead. Third sister went straight south without looking back, and second sister was closely guarded by her. My sister couldn't bear to part with her two sisters and followed her for a long way to the south. Big sister still misses her parents very much, so she turned and looked into the distance. So Jinsha arrived at Shigu, Lijiang, and was blocked by Luohaishan. The river flowed from the west and suddenly turned 90 degrees to the northeast, forming the first bay of the Yangtze River. When my sister Jinsha crossed the Tiger Leaping Gorge, she was stopped by two brothers, Yulong and Baja, and asked her to stay and marry her brother Yulong. The clever elder sister danced for seven days and nights, which made the two brothers ecstatic. Then, she jumped over the Tiger Leaping Gorge and headed for the place where the sun rose in the East China Sea. The mountain here is more than 4000 meters above sea level and the river is 1, 750 meters above sea level. The mountains are long and magnificent, and the elder sister rushes to Yibin, Chongqing and the Three Gorges without looking back, and finally finds the East China Sea where the sun rises. Later, the elder sister became Jinsha River, the third sister became Nujiang River, and the second sister became Lancang River.

The story of folklore 7

Du Kang, some people say that he is a minister under the Yellow Emperor.

After the Yellow Emperor established the tribal alliance, Shennong began to cultivate land and grow grain after tasting a hundred herbs and distinguishing grains. The Yellow Emperor ordered Du Kang to manage grain production, and Du Kang was very responsible. Due to the fertile land and pleasant climate, there is a bumper harvest every year, and the grain output is increasing. At that time, because there was no warehouse and no scientific storage method, Du Kang piled the harvested grain in the cave. After a long time, due to the humidity in the cave, the food is moldy. The Yellow Emperor was very angry when he learned about it. He ordered Du Kang to be removed from his post and only let him keep the food. He also said that if the grain was moldy in the future, Du Kang would be executed.

Du Kang, the minister in charge of grain production, was suddenly reduced to storing grain, and he was very sad. But he also believes that Lei Zu, Hou Feng, Cang Xie and other officials have made great contributions to inventions, but they have made no contribution and committed crimes. At this thought, all his anger disappeared, and he secretly made up his mind to keep the food well. One day, Du Kang found an open field in the forest, and several surrounding trees died, leaving only the thick trunk. The suitcase is empty. Du Kang had a brainwave. He thinks that if the grain is put in a hole in the tree, it may not go bad. So he hollowed out all the dead trees in the forest. A few days later, all the grain was put into the tree hole.

Who knows, two years later, the grain in the tree hole was slowly fermented by the wind, the sun and the rain. One day, when Du Kang went up the mountain to check the grain, he suddenly found some goats, wild boar and rabbits lying around a dead tree with grain on it. At first, he thought that all these wild animals were dead. When he approached, he found that they were still alive, and they all seemed to be sleeping. Du Kang couldn't figure out what the reason was and wondered when the wild boar woke up. As soon as it saw someone coming, it ran into the Woods. Then a goat and a rabbit woke up and ran away. Du Kang didn't bring a bow and arrow when he went up the mountain, so he didn't catch up. He was about to go back when he suddenly found two goats licking something in front of a tree hole full of food. Du Kang hurriedly hid behind a big tree to observe, only to see two goats licking for a while, and then staggered up and lying on the ground after a while. Du Kang quickly ran to tie up two goats, and then carefully checked with his tongue what the goats had just licked in the tree hole. You can take a look without looking, but Du Kang got a fright. The hole in the tree used to hold grain cracked a crack, and the water inside kept oozing out. Goats, wild boar and rabbits fell to the ground after licking the water. Du Kang sniffed it with his nose, and the seeping water was very fragrant, so he couldn't help tasting it. Although it tastes a little spicy, it is particularly mellow. The more he tasted it, the more he wanted to taste it, and finally he took a few sips. This glass of wine doesn't matter. For a moment, I just felt very dizzy. Just two steps forward, I fell to the ground and fell asleep. I don't know how long it took. When he woke up, he saw that one of the two goats had run away and the other was struggling. He turned over, feeling full of energy and energy, and accidentally trampled the struggling goat to death. He conveniently took off the pointed jar at his waist and filled half the jar with this perfume seeping from the tree hole.

When he came back, Du Kang told other food keepers what he had seen, and let everyone taste the perfume he brought back. Everyone thinks it's strange. Some people suggested that the matter should be reported to the Yellow Emperor as soon as possible, but others disagreed, on the grounds that Du Kang was demoted for spoiling food in the past, and now he has put food into a tree hole and turned it into water. If the Yellow Emperor knew about it and didn't kill his head, he would kill Du Kang. Du Kang said unhurriedly to everyone after listening:&; Now, whether it's good or bad, you can't hide it from the Yellow Emperor. & amp he spoke, he lifted the pointed-bottomed jar and walked to the Yellow Emperor.

After listening to Du Kang's report, the Yellow Emperor carefully tasted the perfume he brought, and immediately discussed the matter with his ministers. Ministers agreed that this is a living food, not poisonous water. The Yellow Emperor did not blame Du Kang, but ordered him to continue to observe carefully and ponder the truth. He also ordered Cang Xie to give this perfume a name. Cang Xie casually said:&; This water tastes sweet and mellow, and it will refresh you. & Then he built a&; Wine and words. Both the Yellow Emperor and the ministers thought it was a good name.

Since then, China ancient wine industry began to appear. In memory of Du Kang, later generations regarded him as the ancestor of brewing.

The story of folklore 8

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a rich man named Wang Erze in Dongcui Village, Shangcun Township, our county. This man has a black beard and a white beard, rich family, several hectares of land, horses and mules in groups, but he believes in ghosts and gods. Tomb-Sweeping Day burns paper and incense in the New Year, and temples of all sizes must be visited on Wednesday, Saturday and September. Go out first to see whether Hei Hu is in the way or the zodiac is auspicious.

One day, three people were detained in Dongyang, claiming that they could clean up the god of wealth and use magic to make people get more money every day. Wang Er, the rich man, was overjoyed and even more hospitable to the three men. Dongyang Guan three people secretly pleased. Now they have met an old money fan, and they are going to make a fortune.

From then on, regardless of other chores, Wang Erze's family burned incense at the intersection outside the village every night, from the intersection to the home. Statues offering sacrifices to pigs, sheep and the god of wealth are at the mercy of three swindlers. Besides, Lan Zhi, the youngest daughter of the wealthy Wang Man Zell family, is smart. Whenever she knelt down, she always looked at how to satisfy the god of wealth. The three swindlers were afraid of revealing clues, so they said she was insincere, so the god of wealth could not accept it. The rich man Wang Er was impatient and sent her to grandma's house. When the time was right, the three swindlers moved to a water tank to pour water, and then put the fake Yuan Bao in. They said to Wang Erze,&; Before burning incense, put an ingot in the water tank and you will get a pair. If you put one pair, you can get two pairs. & The rich man Wang Er put it into the experiment, and it really worked, and he was deeply impressed by the deception of three swindlers.

When the three swindlers met Wang Erze, they couldn't tell the truth from Yuan Bao, but they kowtowed three times and nine times, trusting them sincerely. He said to Wang Erze:&; The god of wealth has been recovered. As long as you can put more ingots, you can get more, multiply and ensure that you make a fortune. & Wang Er took out all the gold ingots at home and put them in the jar, bowed their heads and closed their eyes, waiting to send them. Seeing Wang Erze's obstinacy, the three swindlers quietly took Yuan Bao out of the jar, laid bricks, took out three mules and horses from the stable, carried Yuan Bao, and roared off from Zhao Yuntai, heading straight for Dongyang Pass.

Wang Erze knelt down and couldn't help it. When he opened his eyes, he saw that three people who had seen the god of wealth in the room were not sitting in front of the statue of the god of wealth. Look at the water tank again, it's all bricks, and you know it's a big move. I went to the stable to get the horses, and three horses were missing. I urgently asked the long-term workers to catch up. Where can I catch them? After a while, the long-term worker came back and said, boss, the god of wealth ran too fast and didn't stop him. & After hearing this, the old rich man sat on the porch and just sighed.

The story of folklore 9

Beautiful legend: the bright moon is like a mirror, and the sky is full of stars. On the quiet night of August 15, our family ate sweet moon cakes and enjoyed the bright moon.

While eating moon cakes, I sang Su Dongpo's Water Tune:&; When will there be a bright moon? Ask about Sky Wine. I want to know &; At this time, the whole family laughed. People often say&; Please think twice about your relatives during the festival. I think so, too. Looking at the bright moon, I can't help thinking of my brother in Shanghai.

Dad looked at the bright moon and told me a legend about the Mid-Autumn Festival: A long time ago, there was a hero named Hou Yi. There were ten suns there at that time, and he was determined to put the other nine suns in. So he came to the top of the mountain, pulled up his bow with all his strength, and shot down nine suns. Many people respect him and worship him as a teacher. Only one person named Pang Meng is not a real teacher.

Hou Yi's wife Chang 'e is very beautiful and kind. The Queen Mother of the West gave Hou Yi a fairy medicine, which can ascend to heaven and become immortal. Hou Yi refused to leave Chang 'e or eat. When Pang Meng knew about it, on August 15th, while Hou Yi was away, he forced Chang 'e to hand over the fairy medicine with his sword. Chang 'e didn't want to give it to such a person, so she swallowed it in a fit of pique. She suddenly floated into the sky and landed on the moon. The villagers miss the kind Chang 'e, and August 15 every year becomes the Mid-Autumn Festival that people look forward to reunion. After listening to this story, I finally understand the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival. This beautiful story has made me linger in it for a long time.

The story of folklore 10

According to legend, one year in ancient China, ten suns appeared in the sky, which made the earth smoke and the sea dry up, and ordinary people could no longer live.

This incident alarmed a hero named Hou Yi. He climbed to the top of Kunlun Mountain, drew his bow and shot down nine redundant suns in one breath. Hou Yi has made great achievements in the world and is respected and loved by the people. Many people with lofty ideals come here to study and be teachers. Cunning and unscrupulous _ Meng Peng also mixed in.

Soon, Hou Yi married a beautiful and kind wife named Chang 'e. Besides hunting, Hou Yi spends all his time with his wife, and people envy this beautiful and loving couple.

Three days later, Hou Yi led his entourage out hunting, while Meng Peng with ulterior motives pretended to be ill. Shortly after Hou Yi led the crowd to leave, Meng Peng broke into the backyard of the back room with a sword in his hand, threatening Chang 'e to hand over the elixir. Chang 'e knew that she was no match for Meng Peng. In times of crisis, she made a decisive decision, turned around and opened the treasure chest, took out the elixir and swallowed it in one gulp.

Chang 'e swallowed the medicine and immediately floated off the ground, rushed out of the window and flew into the sky. Because Chang 'e was worried about her husband, she flew to the nearest moon and became a fairy.
