The Origin of Manshan Town, a Traditional Village in Weihai

Legend of the new year

Legend has it that there was a monster named Nian in ancient China. Its head was long, sharp and fierce. I lived at the bottom of the sea for many years in. Every New Year's Eve, it crawls ashore to devour livestock and kill people. Therefore, every New Year's Eve, people in the village help the elderly and take care of the young, and flee to the mountains to avoid the injury of the year.

On New Year's Eve this year, the elephants were busy packing their bags and fled to the mountains. At this time, an old man with white hair came to the east of the village and told an old woman that he would drive Nian beast away as long as he was allowed to stay in her house for one night. People didn't believe it, but the old woman suggested that he go up the mountain to avoid it. The old man insisted on staying. When they saw that he couldn't stay long, they went up the mountain to take shelter.

When the beast was ready to break into the village and wreak havoc as usual, suddenly there was firecrackers from the white-haired old man. Nian beast trembled and never dared to move forward. Originally, Nian beast was most afraid of red, fire and explosion. At this moment, Daimon Masaru opened the door and saw an old man in a red robe laughing in the hospital. Nian beast was frightened to disgrace and fled in haste.

The next day, when people came to the village from the mountains, they found the village safe and sound. It suddenly dawned on me that the white-haired old man was a fairy who helped everyone drive away the Nian beast. At the same time, people also found three magic weapons for the white-haired old man to drive away the Nian beast. Since then, every year on New Year's Eve, every family has posted red couplets and set off firecrackers to keep the lights on. This custom has become the most popular among the people of China.

Legend of Lantern Festival

After the death of Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, Lv Hou's son Liu Ying became Emperor Hui of Han Dynasty. Hui Di was born weak and indecisive, and his power gradually fell into the hands of Lv Hou. After Hui Di's death, he monopolized state affairs and turned Liu's world into Lu's. The old courtiers and Liu's imperial clan were deeply indignant, but they were afraid of cruelty and dared not speak out.

After Lv Hou's death, Zhu Lu has been in a state of anxiety, afraid of being hurt and excluded. So, he secretly gathered in the general's home and plotted with * * * to make trouble in order to completely seize Liu's country.

This incident reached the ears of Liu Nang, the king of Qi in the Liu clan. In order to protect Liu's country, Liu Nang decided to attack Zhu Lu. Then, he contacted Zhou Bo and Chen Ping, founding fathers, and designed and promoted Lv Lu. The "Zhu-Lu Rebellion" was finally completely put down.

After the rebellion, the ministers made Liu Heng, the second son of Liu Bang, emperor and called him Emperor of Chinese. Impressed by the hard-won peace and prosperity, Emperor Wen designated the 15th day of the first month of the first month to quell the "Zhu-Lu Rebellion" as a day to have fun with the people, and every household in Beijing celebrated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Since then, the fifteenth day of the first month has become a folk festival celebrated by everyone-"Lantern Festival".

The spread of festivals in Ming and Qing dynasties

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhong Er, the son of the Jin Dynasty, went into exile to escape persecution. On the way to exile, he was tired and hungry in a deserted place and couldn't stand up anymore. I searched for it for a long time, but I couldn't find anything to eat. Everyone is anxious. I pushed the minister to a secluded place, cut a piece of meat from my thigh and cooked a bowl of broth. Zhong Er shed tears when he found that the meat was cut off by mesons.

Nineteen years later, Zhong Er became the monarch, that is, the historical Jin Wengong. After he ascended the throne, Wen Gong rewarded the heroes who accompanied him in exile at first, but forgot to push the meson. Many people complained about meson push and advised him to admire it. However, mesons despise those who strive for merit the most. He packed his bags and quietly went to Mianshan to live in seclusion.

Hearing this, Jin Wengong was ashamed and personally took someone to ask Jiexiu, but Jiexiu had left home for Mianshan. Mianshan Mountain is high and dangerous, with dense trees. It's hard to find two people. Someone offered a plan to burn Mianshan from three sides and force a meson to push out. The fire burned all over Mianshan, but there was no trace of meson push. After the fire was put out, people found that Jiezitui, who was carrying his old mother, had sat under an old willow tree and died. Jin Wengong cried. When I was buried, I found a bloody book in a tree hole, which said, "May my master always have a clear-cut stand." To commemorate meson tui, Jin Wengong ordered that this day be designated as Cold Food Festival.

The following year, Jin Wengong led the minister to climb a mountain to pay homage, and found that the old willow tree came back from the dead. He named the old willow "Qingming Willow" and told the world that the day after the Cold Food Festival was designated as Tomb-Sweeping Day.

Legend of Dragon Boat Festival

During the Warring States period, Chu and Qin fought for hegemony, and the poet Qu Yuan was highly valued by the King of Chu. However, Qu Yuan's ideas were opposed by the old school headed by the above officials, doctors and Shanxi merchants, and he constantly vilified Qu Yuan in front of Chu Huaiwang. Chu Huaiwang gradually alienated Qu Yuan, and Qu Yuan, who had great ambitions, was deeply distressed. With uncontrollable sadness and indignation, he wrote immortal poems such as Li Sao and Tianxiang.

In 229 years before Wu Gong, Qin captured eight cities in Chu, and then sent envoys to invite Chu Huaiwang to make peace with Qin. Qu yuan saw through the plot of the king of Qin and risked his life to enter the palace to state his interests. Chu Huaiwang did not listen, but expelled Qu Yuan from the capital. Chu Huaiwang attended the meeting as scheduled and was imprisoned as soon as he arrived in Qin. Chu Huaiwang was filled with remorse and died in the state of Qin three years later. Shortly after the King of Chu ascended the throne, the King of Qin sent troops to attack the State of Chu. The King of Chu retreated hastily and Qin Jun captured Ying City. On the way to exile, Qu Yuan heard the bad news of sudden death and the attack on Tancheng, but he was so desperate that he sighed and jumped into the turbulent Guluo River.

Fishermen on the river and people on the shore heard that Dr. Qu Yuan threw himself into the river and came to the river to salvage Qu Yuan's body. They brought zongzi and eggs into the river one after another, and some of them poured realgar wine into the king, so that the medicine could make the dragon and the water beast unconscious and prevent Qu Yuan from being hurt.

Since then, every year at the beginning of May-Quyuan was martyred in the river, the people of Chu all went to the river to row dragon boats and throw zongzi to commemorate this great patriotic poet, and the custom of the Dragon Boat Festival was thus handed down.

The story of seven nights

A long time ago, there was an orphan who lived with his brother and sister-in-law. He is clever and diligent, but his sister-in-law still doesn't like him. She urged him to go up the mountain to herd cattle before dawn, and everyone called him Cowherd. After the New Year, his brother and sister-in-law separated, and the cruel and heartless sister-in-law only gave him a broken house and an old cow. Since then, the cowherd has been grazing cattle and chopping wood during the day, and sleeping with the old cow in the broken house at night.

One day, the cowherd drove the cow into a strange forest, where the mountains and rivers were beautiful and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. Cowherd saw nine fairies driving Xiangyun on the grass by the river, so he took off his colorful clothes and jumped into the crystal clear river. The cowherd stared at the youngest beautiful fairy. Coe was fascinated by God when the old cow suddenly said, "She is the fabric of heaven. Just take away the colorful clothes and she will be your wife. " Cowherd quietly followed the tree and quietly took away the colorful clothes of Weaver Girl. Near noon, other fairies wore colorful clothes and drove away in Xiangyun. Only the weaver girl in colorful clothes can't be found. At this time, the Cowherd came out from behind the tree and proposed to the Weaver Girl. Seeing that Cowherd was honest, hardworking and strong, he nodded shyly.

After the cowherd and the weaver girl tied the knot, men plowed and women wove, respecting and loving each other. Two years later, Weaver Girl gave birth to a boy and a girl. However, Emperor Tiandi was furious when he heard that the Weaver Girl had married the world. On the seventh day of July, the heavenly queen ordered the heavenly soldiers to capture the weaver girl. With the help of the old cow, the grieving cowherd chased the sky with his children in a basket. Seeing that she caught up with him, the Queen Mother rowed with a golden hairpin, and a choppy Tianhe appeared at the foot of the Cowherd.

The grieving Weaver Girl and Cowherd, one in Hedong and the other in Hexi, touched the magpies in the distance. In an instant, countless magpies flew to Tianhe and built a magpie bridge. Cowherd and Weaver Girl finally met on the Magpie Bridge. The Queen Mother had no choice but to allow the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet on the bridge once a year on the seventh day of July.

Legend of Mid-Autumn Festival

According to legend, there were ten suns in the ancient sky, which made the earth smoke and the sea dried up, and ordinary people could not live any longer. This incident alarmed a hero named Hou Yi. He climbed to the top of Kunlun Mountain, walked with divine power, drew the bow, detonated nine redundant suns in one breath, and saved the people in from the mire. Soon, Hou Yi married a beautiful wife named Chang 'e.

One day, Hou Yi went to Kunlun Mountain to visit friends and seek truth. He happened to meet the Queen Mother passing by and asked her for a pack of elixir. It is said that after taking this medicine, he can ascend to heaven immediately. However, Hou Yi was reluctant to leave his wife, so he had to hand over the elixir to Chang 'e for collection.

Unexpectedly, it was seen by Meng Peng, the doorman of Hou Yi. When Meng Peng and other Hou Yi went out, they threatened Chang 'e to hand over the elixir. Knowing that Chang 'e was no match for Meng Peng, he decided to take out the elixir of life and swallow it in one gulp. After Chang 'e swallowed the medicine, her body immediately flew off the ground and into the sky. Because Chang 'e was worried about her husband, she flew to the nearest moon and became a fairy.

When Hou Yi came back, the maids cried about everything. In grief, she looked up at the night sky and called his wife's name. At this time, she was surprised to find that the moon was particularly bright tonight, and there was a swaying figure resembling Chang 'e. Hou Yi ordered people to put a table of incense, put on Chang 'e's favorite honey and fresh fruit, and sacrificed Chang 'e in the moon palace. When people heard that the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon flew to the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon as a fairy child, they would put an incense table on the edge of the moon and pray for kind the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon. Since then, the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival in Yue Bai has spread among the people.

Spread of Double Ninth Festival

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a plague demon in Ruhe. As soon as it appeared, people got sick and died every day, and the people in this area suffered from the plague.

A plague killed Heng Jing's parents, and he almost died himself. After recovering from his illness, Hengjing bid farewell to his wife and villagers and decided to visit immortals to learn art, so as to eliminate the epidemic for the people. Hengjing visited the famous mountains and highlands, and finally found a magical fairy on the oldest mountain in the East. Under the guidance of the crane, the immortal finally took in Heng Jing, and gave him a demon-reducing sword in addition to teaching him. Hengjing forgot to eat and sleep and practiced hard, and finally became a martial arts.

On this day, the immortal called Heng Jing to his side and said, "Tomorrow, on the ninth day of September, the plague god will come out to do evil again. As you know, it's time to go back and kill the people." The immortal sent a bag of dogwood leaves and a cup of chrysanthemum wine to Hengjing, and secretly taught him how to ward off evil spirits and let Hengjing ride a crane home.

Hengjing returned to his hometown. On the morning of the ninth day of the next hundred days, he led the villagers to a nearby mountain according to the instructions of the fairy, and then distributed a dogwood leaf and a cup of chrysanthemum wine to everyone. At noon, with a few strange cries, Yaowen rushed out of Ruhe River, and just as Yaowen rushed to the foot of the mountain, suddenly there were bursts of strange fragrance of Cornus officinalis and mellow fragrance of chrysanthemum. Mo Wen stopped suddenly and his face suddenly changed. Heng Jing chased down the mountain with a demon-reducing sword, and soon stabbed Mo Wen to death by the sword. Since then, the custom of climbing mountains on the ninth day of September to avoid epidemics has been handed down year after year.

Ghosts'Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival on July 15th is called Ghost Festival.

In fact, from the first day of the seventh lunar month to the 30th of July, the gate of hell is wide open. According to folklore, there will be many ghosts wandering among the undead during this period.

Mid-Autumn Festival is a day that China people attach great importance to. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, there are many grand ceremonies to worship Purdue.

This Ghost Festival is also the largest and most expensive festival among many festivals in China.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is also the "Magnolia Festival" of Buddhism. The story about Yulan Festival has been circulated among the people. In other words, Liu Qingjie, Manglietia's mother, was sent to hell.

Mulian used her magical powers to see his mother fall into evil ways, with a big stomach and a small throat, unable to eat and very hungry. Seeing this, he took the rice to feed his mother, but as soon as it was imported, it burned to ashes.

Mu Lian was very sad. She asked Sakyamuni for help. Sakyamuni told him that his mother's sin was too deep, and all kinds of tastes should be listed in the pot and offered to all monks to relieve his mother's suffering.

Finally, he helped his mother get rid of the pain of hanging upside down. Therefore, future generations should remember that on July 15 every year, a pot of Buddha and monk should be used to repay the kindness of their parents.

China society will begin to worship this month, and some places will hold Purdue Bye-bye. Besides the Lunar New Year, Magnolia Festival is the second largest festival in China.

Different regions have different ways of worship. Private worship is a personal worship at home. Pu Jie is a day of personality cult. Shipu is a big dupu with the market as the main body.

On July 30, the gate of hell closed, and the one-month Central Plains ended like this.

Tibetan bathing festival

Every night in late summer and early autumn, a very bright star appears in the southeast of Lhasa. At this time, the Tibetan people began the annual bathing festival. Legend has it that this star only appears in seven nights. Why do people designate seven nights when stars appear as bathing festivals? A long time ago, there was a famous doctor on the grassland. His name is Yuto Yun Dan Gombo. His medical skill is brilliant, and he can cure any intractable diseases. Therefore, King Chisong Dêzain of Tibet asked him to be a doctor to treat Tibetan kings and concubines. However, after Yuto entered the palace, he still couldn't forget the people on the grassland. He often uses the time when he goes out to collect medicines to treat people. One year, a terrible plague prevailed, and many herders were bedridden, and some were killed. At this time, the Jade Rabbit ran on the vast grassland to treat the sick herdsmen. He collected all kinds of drugs from the old forest of the snow-capped mountains, and whoever ate them would be cured. I wonder how many dying patients have recovered. Dr Yuto's name can be seen everywhere on the grassland, and people call him the King of Medicine. Unfortunately, Dr. Yuto passed away. After his death, a terrible plague occurred on the grassland, which was more serious than the previous one, and many people died. The dying herdsmen had to kneel on the ground and pray to heaven, hoping that God would bless them. Coincidentally, one day, a woman tortured by illness had a dream. In the dream, Dr. Yuto said to her, "Tomorrow night, when a bright star appears in the southeast sky, you can take a bath in Jiqu River. Just take a bath. " Sure enough, after the woman bathed in Jiqu River, her illness was immediately eliminated. A yellow and thin patient turned into a healthy person with a red face after taking a shower. After the news spread, all the patients came to take a bath in the river. All the patients who took a bath eliminated their diseases and recovered their health. People say that this strange star was changed by Dr. Yuto. In heaven, Dr. Yuto saw that the grassland people were attacked by the plague again, and he could not come to earth to treat the people, so he turned himself into a star, turned the river into a potion by starlight, and let people bathe in the river to drive away the disease. Because God only gave Uto seven days, this star only appeared for seven days. Since then, the Tibetan people have designated these seven days as a bathing festival. At this time of the year, herders all over the country bathe in the nearby rivers. It is said that after bathing, people will be healthy and happy and will not get sick.

The Origin of Dai Water-splashing Festival

Once upon a time, there was an evil demon king. He has magic. He can't float in the water. He can't burn in water, his knife can't be broken, his spear can't penetrate, and his bow and arrow can't be shot. He is arrogant, arrogant, bullying and evil all day. At that time, there were sixteen floors in the sky, and he became the overlord of one of them. He oppresses the people, plunders them, and does all kinds of evil. He already has six beautiful wives, but if any family has beautiful daughters, he will keep them for himself. Once, he saw a princess named Qing Zongbu, who was more beautiful than his six wives, and took her away and became his seventh wife. One June, it was the China New Year on Earth. The demon king greeted the New Year with zongzi, and invited the magic ministers and generals to the palace for drinking and having fun. After three rounds of wine, the host and guest are drunk. Wan Zongbu took the opportunity to praise the devil and said, "My noble king, you are boundless in magic and noble in virtue. With your prestige, you can be the conquest of heaven, hell and earth, and you should be the master of the three worlds. " The demon king listened proudly, thought for a moment, turned to his beloved wife and said, "I can really conquer the Three Realms, and no one knows my weakness." Wan Zongbu then asked, "Your Majesty has such great power, how can he have weaknesses?" The devil replied in a low voice, "I'm afraid someone will pull out my hair, strangle me and split my head." You must watch it often. " Wan Zongbu pretended to be surprised and asked, "How can a king who can conquer the Three Realms be afraid of Mao?" The demon king whispered again, "Although my hair is small, I can't live with my neck broken." After listening to Zongbu, she secretly made up her mind. So, she continued to pour wine for the devil until the banquet was over, and she helped the devil to sleep. At this time, she carefully pulled out a hair of the devil and tied it around his neck before the devil woke up. The devil's head immediately fell to the ground, and every drop of blood on his head turned into a fire, burning and spreading to the whole world quickly. At this time, Wan Zongbu quickly picked up the devil's head, and the flame on the ground went out, but as soon as the head was put down, the fire burned again. So the king's six wives came, and they took turns holding the devil's head to keep the fire from burning. Later, Wan Zongbu returned to earth, but she was still covered in blood. People threw water on her in order to wash away her blood. The blood was finally washed away, and Zongzi lived happily on earth. After Zongbu's death, in order to commemorate her, people splash water on each other every Spring Festival to wash away the dirt with clean water and usher in an auspicious New Year.

Legend of Torch Festival of Shilin Yi Nationality

June 24th of the lunar calendar is a traditional festival of the Yi people-Torch Festival.

Whenever night falls, countless torches reflect the night sky and people's smiling faces, from Shilin to Dieshui, from Guishan to Changhu. Enthusiastic singing and majestic lyre sound are intertwined, and the hut is immersed in the joy of the festival ...

There is such a magical and touching legend about the Torch Festival.

In ancient times, there was a castle on a high mountain. There lived a scholar in the castle. He has a pair of mouse eyes, broom eyebrows, a silver carp mouth and a pointed chin. His thin face was covered with black pockmarks. People nicknamed him "Black Devil". This black devil is evil, and his men have raised a large group of servants and thugs to brutally rule and oppress the Yi people. He invented all kinds of excuses, exorbitant taxes and levies, paying per capita tax for giving birth to children, paying high mountain rent for hunting in the mountains, and collecting taxes for fishing in the rivers ... All kinds of exorbitant taxes and levies really made the people breathless. In order to resist the cruel rule of the evil god, he held many uprisings, but it was difficult to capture the strong castle of Tusi, and many people were arrested and starved to death.

There was a clever and capable shepherd, his name was Zaka, and he came up with a way to outwit the toast castle. He secretly contacted the poor in Jiujiuzhai and decided to put all the sheep in the stable from June 17, and only fed water every day, without forage, and starved for seven days and seven nights. In the evening, the insurgents rushed to make shuttle marks, cut down bamboo sticks, ground machetes and axes, and tied torches to the horns of each goat. Everyone agreed to rebel on the evening of June 24th. That night, the moon had not yet appeared, and the breeze was blowing gently in the mountains. Only one horn sounded, and the first "Mother Torch" was named. At this time, all the insurgents immediately opened the door of the sheepfold, lit thousands of torches tied to the horns, and drove the sheep to attack the castle of Tusi.

Countless sheep were so hungry that they rushed to the mountain to eat leaves and grass by the fire. Zaka led the uprising people to fight bravely. As we approached the castle, drums and shouts shook the earth. The dark Lord hurried to the castle and saw the mountains and plains turned into a sea of fire. People surrounding the castle from all directions have begun to attack the city gate. The dark Lord ordered his servants and thugs to guard the gate, but he crept into the cave and prepared to escape. At this time, all the uprising troops have breached the castle and swarmed in. I looked everywhere, but I didn't see any toast. Later, Zaka arrested the housekeeper for questioning. Fearing death, the big housekeeper knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and immediately led Zaka and them to the hole where the toast was hiding.

Zaka told the butler to go down to the cave first and told the dark one to come out and surrender. This big housekeeper, usually Smith, was scared out of her wits, but she was afraid to go down to the cave. Suddenly he collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up. Everyone was looking around. Suddenly, a dagger flew out of the hole and a cold light shot it to the ground. It turns out that Zaka was prepared. He predicted that the dark Lord would not surrender easily and that he would die. So when the dagger in the local cave flew out, Zaka was agile and shot it down with a machete!

When Zaka and others saw that the Dark Lord could not die, they decided to burn him with torches. So at one command, thousands of torches immediately piled up into a hill around the mouth of the cave, only to see the raging fire burning more and more brightly. In a short time, the earth was also burned red, and the evil toast, the black devil, was buried in the torches. To commemorate the victory in the struggle against tyranny, June 24th was designated as "Torch Festival".

Wangdonglin Festival

Many areas in our country celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival on May 5th, and eat zongzi to commemorate the ancient patriotic poet Qu Yuan. However, there are exceptions. Dong families in Zhaimu, Jinping County, Guizhou Province ate zongzi in June to commemorate Lin Wang, the leader of the local Dong peasant uprising. The Jaimu Festival includes not only zongba of general size, but also a large-scale bus as thick as a big bowl and more than two feet long. Legend has it that when Lin Wang led troops to fight, he often used Zongba as dry food, so he wrapped it long and big.

Lin Wang's name is Lin Kuan, and he was born in the village where his mother lived. His ancestral home is Liping, and his father Lin Qiong participated in the Wang Mian Uprising. After the failure, he was persecuted by officers and men. He moved from Hongzhou, Liping to Langdong, Guzhou, crossed Qingshan boundary and Bashou River, and moved to his present residence. At that time, there was no one around, and later they moved to many Dong people's homes. Because this stockade was built the earliest, it was called stockade mother by the surrounding stockades.

Lin Wang was born after his father died. His family is poor. He worked for the rich man since he was a child, chopping wood and mowing grass, feeding cattle and horses, raising fish and watching the fields and water, and doing everything. He is tall and burly, with outstanding personality, great strength, smart and capable, and he loves to help others. The villagers all like him.

Legend has it that King Lin gave the fish in the mountain pond to the rich man. The rich man told him to mow the grass to feed the fish, so he drove the fish to the slope to eat grass, and when he was full, he rushed back to the pond to put it. So the fish he feeds is fat and big. He likes horses very much. During the day, he let his horse eat grass, rode horses and practiced martial arts, slept beside the stable at night, fed the horse tall and strong, and later became his war horse. At present, there is still a stone horse pen he built behind the village mother. Both sides collapsed, leaving two sides. There are still horseshoe prints and his sandal prints on the bluestone board. Once, King Lin gave the cow to a rich man on the mountain. Seeing that many poor people had no food, he couldn't bear to knock a cow to death and cook it for everyone. Others worry that he can't tell the difference between the two. He had a brainwave and thought of a way to ask someone to put the oxtail in a crack in the rock and wait in a cave. He immediately ran to call the rich man and said that a cow was stuck in a crack in the rock and could not get out. The rich man hurried to catch up with the mountain, and when he saw it, only the cow's tail was exposed outside the crack in the rock. The rich pull the cow's tail, and the people in the cave learn Niu Jiao. The more they pull the cow, the more they bark. As a result, the cow's tail was broken, and the cow could not come out, so it had to go back helplessly.

Lin Wang is very enthusiastic, and everyone does good deeds. There is a cave on the roadside of Dongpo. There is a clear spring in the cave, but it can't flow out. Passers-by are thirsty and can't drink. After Lin Wang knew it, he bit a hole with his mouth, opened the rock plate with his hands, and a clear spring flowed out, so that pedestrians had water to drink. You can check it out if you don't believe me. Now there are finger prints and two knee prints of King Lin on the slate beside the spring.

There are two opposite slopes in Houlongshan of Zhaimu, separated by a deep valley. It is not convenient for people to farm on the opposite slope. Lin Wang pulled out long stones from the opposite slope and made a stone bridge. His mother said, "You look dizzy in the Gao Qiao. Don't hurt others to fall." Wang Yi Lin broke the bridge with his fist, and there were still a few feet of broken rock beams on both sides of the slope.

There are many people and few people around Dongpo, so Lin Wang wants to cut off Bashou River and divert water from Dongpo to reclaim land. Early in the morning, he came to the river with a big whip and three slopes. An old woman just saw him. She shouted, "Look, Sanpo can walk." As a result, all three slopes stopped in the middle of Zhaimutian Dam. They are called Yuanyang Slope, Dingbian Slope and Gongdu Slope, which are not connected with other slopes. Now it has been terraced.

When King Lin grew up, he saw more and more people fleeing from other places, and the whole cave was full. There was not enough food, so officers and men came to grab food and people. People can't help it. Dong Jia can't live any longer. Therefore, the village elders (village elders) and Laban (youth) of 48 Dong villages, such as Dongpo, Shangdong and Youdong, gathered at the village mother's office to discuss. The elders in the village said, "Our Dong family has been bullied for generations. Can't we live a quiet life? " It was decided that each of the 48 villages should choose one person to attend the rally to elect the king. Choose the king according to the way of Wang Mian Uprising, and each person will plant a maple tree, and the first one to survive is the king. Mother in the village chose Lin Kuan. Since the election of the king, 48 people have planted a tree upside down in their mother village, and the tree planted by Lin Kuan has lived the fastest. Everyone elected him king at one fell swoop, hence the name Lin Wang. Now there is a maple tree in Zhaimuzhai, with branches facing down. Unlike other trees, it is said that it was planted by Lin Wang.

King Lin United the poor everywhere and ordered the villages to make swords and arrows. The next year, he gathered more than 100,000 poor people to prepare for the uprising.

Lin Wang also stopped his marriage for the uprising. Legend has it that the girl he dated was Elvis Presley and lived in Muwangzhai. She has been chopping wood, mowing grass and singing folk songs with Lin Wang since she was a child. When they grow up, the two old people plan to get married. However, these two young people are very ambitious. They said, "The world is so chaotic and the people are so miserable. We won't get married until we solve their pain. " The old man couldn't figure it out, so he made an appointment: Lin Wang in Kuli 'ao and Elvis Presley in Wangmu Village smashed a stone from two places at the same time to see if the two stones could meet. If they touch each other, they will get married immediately, otherwise, they will postpone marriage. As a result, Lin Wang's stone just hit Jie Ao, and Elvis Presley's strength was even weaker, and he couldn't hit Jie Ao at all. The two stones didn't touch each other, so they didn't rush to get married. Later, they both took part in the uprising.

Lin Wang was very brave in the uprising. Under his command, Longli City was breached early in the morning, and everyone returned to Zhaimudong for breakfast. Then they captured Xinhua Hospital and Pingcha Hospital, and planned to attack Changsha and Nanjing to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. It is also said that he made three arrows and almost shot the king of Chu to death. Last night, he asked his mother to wake him up when the rooster crowed. When he woke up, he attacked the king of Chu with his army. He shot three arrows at the camp of the king of Chu, and these three arrows hit the throne of the king of Chu. However, he did it a little early. If the king of Chu in Wu Geng was in power, he would have shot him. Later, King Lin was surrounded by 300,000 troops of the King of Chu. Finally, he ran out of ammunition, and the rebels could not break through everywhere. King Lin was very angry and put his sword on the rock. As a result, King Lin was arrested. He was beheaded, but Lin Wang didn't believe him. Holding his head in his hands, he went home and asked his mother to install it for him, and fought with the officers and men. Later, he was beheaded twice and faked twice. It was not until the third time that his head couldn't hold any more, and his body fell down.

After the failure of the uprising, the imperial court was afraid that the local Dong Shi family would rebel again, so it sent Zheng Zilong to dig the ancestral graves. Now the Longshan deep ditch criss-crossing behind the village mother was dug that year. Although Long Mai was cut off, the peasant uprising continued. Sixteen years later, in the eleventh year of Yongle, farmers in Dongpo and other places revolted again. In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, Liping and Qiaoqiao farmers revolted, killed state officials, gathered 300,000 people and besieged Tongguwei.

King Lin worked for everyone's welfare and people will always remember him. Although framed as "bandits" by history books, he is a hero in Dong Jia's eyes. Every year on the day of June in the lunar calendar, Zhai mother will have a holiday. Other miscellaneous surnames should also be celebrated. This day is the biggest festival of the year except the Spring Festival. It is said that every birthday festival was originally built for the mother to commemorate the ancestors of the Lins. After leaving Lin Wang, Lin Wang was the main one. In order to respect the fact that the village mother is the village mother, and both are surnamed Lin, and they are born to the village mother, the Dong family around them postponed this matter for one day.

On the first day of the festival, the village mother killed pigs and cows, and every family put fields to catch fish. Grind bean curd to make jiaozi, make cakes, and send the children to the stockade next door to invite guests. On the festival day, before eating, every household puts on wine, meat, jiaozi and cakes to burn incense to worship their ancestors. When guests enter the village, they should first worship under the ancient maple tree. Some old people had to peel off some bark from the old maple tree, wrap it in paper and take it back to pray for the children. After noon, I began to eat. The banquet was rich, and we sang and blessed each other while eating. After dinner, the host invited the guests, and the children sang "Old Songs of Lin Wang" under the ancient maple tree. After singing, the old people told the children the story of Lin Wang, and stayed up all night, which was very lively.

Yi flower arranging festival

The eighth day of February every year is the Yi Flower Arrangement Festival, also called Ma Yinghua Festival. How did it come from?

A long time ago, the whole world was flooded and the land was flooded. There are only two brothers and sisters left in the world. They hid in a big gourd, whose mouth was sealed with wax. This gourd has been drifting in the flood for many days, and I don't know where it has gone. One day, the flood began to recede, revealing hills and treetops. The gourd landed on the branch of a big tree. The eagle is flying on the mountain. It heard the voice in the gourd. It's the game inside! The eagle caught the gourd and put it on the top of the mountain. Now the gourd has a thin waist, and it was caught by the eagle that year. The mouse came out of the ground and he heard the voice in the gourd. This is the game. The mouse chewed the wax thoroughly, and light appeared in the gourd. Brother and sister climbed out along the light. They are the only people left in this desolate world.

The old man came to his brother and sister and said, "For the sake of species inheritance, only you are married." My brother and sister replied, "How can parents get married?" The old man said, "There are only two of you. You must get married." Brother and sister are very embarrassed. My brother thought for a moment and said, "We each light a wick and ask God, if cigarettes are lit and get together, we can get married." As a result, the smoke rose and we were really together, but my sister insisted on not getting married, and my brother said, "We are both grinding on the mountain. If the two plates are ground together, we can get married. " They did it again, and as a result, the two disks were folded evenly together. Even my sister still refuses to get married. My sister said, "We were rolling a dustpan once. If the two dustpans are not crooked, we can get married face to face. " As a result, the two dustpans really merged into one. The old man said, "What can you say? Just get married. " No matter how hard my sister tries, it is useless. She added, "How can we get married without parents' orders and the media as evidence?
