Once upon a time, an old farmer lived at the foot of the mountain and cultivated some wasteland. It is not difficult for him to live alone.

One day, he dug out a golden urn from under a stone. He quickly took the golden urn home and put a little millet in it. For several days, I didn't see enough rice in the jar just by eating rice. He was surprised, so he dug it out with a spoon and filled everything that could be loaded, but there was still a lot of rice in the jar, so he gave it to the poor farmers in a cloth bag, so that the poor people could eat their meals and didn't have to work for the landlord.

A few days later, the landlord learned about it and angrily came to the old farmhouse with two lackeys. He insisted that the golden urn was stolen by his family and ordered the lackeys to rob it. The old farmer grabbed the golden jar and said loudly, "If you dare to rob it, I'll break it at once." When the rich man saw that the old farmer was going to drop the golden bottle, he panicked and quickly said, "Don't grab it, don't drop it!" " "With a snort, he led the dog away.

The rich man wanted to get the golden urn when he went home, so he prepared gold and silver and went to the county government to falsely accuse the old farmer of stealing his golden urn. When the magistrate heard that it was a treasure chest, he quickly ordered his servant to take the old farmer away. Soon, the main servant came to the old farmer with a small golden jar.

When the magistrate saw the golden urn, there was a smug smile in his eyes, and he ordered the chief to pour out the rice, but more and more. At first glance, the county magistrate is really a treasure chest. He took a silver or two, put it in a jar and took it out. There was something in it, and then he took it out. He no longer cares about landlords and old peasants, but keeps taking money out. The court is too noisy.

The father of the county magistrate heard about it in the backyard and came to see it. He saw his son holding it slowly and did it himself. After a long time, he was tired, but refused to leave and plunged into the golden jar. The magistrate hurried to pull, and one after another came out, but he couldn't finish pulling. Finally, the county magistrate was very angry. He ordered the chief to smash the golden jar. At this time, the county magistrate couldn't tell which was the real dad and which was the fake dad, so he used the method of propaganda. Whoever promised was the real dad, but when everyone promised, the county magistrate died after a while.

After half a year, the pier grew taller. One day, Luban's wife brought food to the shore. After waiting for a while, she didn't see Luban, so she went to the shore to have a look. Who knows, she saw a giant standing in the river, with a boulder in one hand and a hammer in the other, and his wife exclaimed. In a panic, Lu Ban hit his leg with a hammer. The stone in hand also flew to the other side of the mountain, and the bridge was not built. Up to now, there is a very smooth stone on the general column, which seems to be printed on the back of the whole person, with the spine in the middle, which divides the stone in two, as if it was left after a long rest. Legend has it that this was left by Lu Ban when he built the bridge.

One year, the epidemic disease in Hangzhou happened to be a famine year, and the citizens were poor and sick, which was very miserable.

One day, a big ship was moored by the lake in the city, and a beautiful woman sat at the bow. She intercedes for the poor and the sick. If someone pays for her, she will live in his home, serve him and use the money to help the people.

People on the shore are scrambling to buy her, and when they can't stand each other, they throw money. Whoever throws money at her will welcome her back.

As a result, copper coins, gold and silver were thrown down one after another and piled up on the bow. None of them fell on her. Everyone was disappointed and had to give up.

The woman smiled and crossed her hands, thanking the people on the shore and giving every donation to the poor.

The news came and caused a sensation in Hangzhou. The rich man was moved by her chivalrous behavior and gave generously. In this way, the sick get medicine, the poor get money, the hungry get food, and everyone gets comfort and satisfaction.

Suddenly, the woman's boat was colorful and brightly lit, and a solemn Buddha statue crossed her hands and smiled. Everyone was very surprised.

She said, "I am avalokitesvara, and I am here to inspire and awaken everyone's kindness. Compassion and pity are the most sacred responsibilities to help others, and helping the weak is the unshirkable responsibility of people. Today, your performance is very commendable and everyone will be happy. "

Everyone was moved and happy, and they all put their hands together in unison and called themselves Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Avalokitesvara painted them. Her promise came true, and she really lived in the home of everyone who donated money for kindness.

This story spread widely in China, which increased people's belief in Guanyin.

Legend has it that Lu Ban was the cleverest and most capable craftsman in ancient China. His real name was Gong Bo, and because he was a native of Lu at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Lu Ban was honored as Gong Bo by later generations.

On one occasion, he came to Gusu City, a paradise on earth, and it really deserved his reputation. The ancient city tower, the second row, the teahouse and the restaurant are very lively. Lu Ban's travels multiplied and he was fascinated by the architectural features of Suzhou. Suddenly there was a loud noise. Lu Ban looked inside and saw a newly-built pagoda standing tall in a grassy clearing. There is a group of people in front of the tower. They are noisy and don't know what to do. He walked slowly over and pushed away the onlookers. He saw an old man wearing silk, a high crown and a sachet around his waist. He was angry, his veins stood out suddenly and violently, staring at his eyebrows, and he was full of energy to fight a bullfight. A middle-aged man squatted opposite the old man, holding his head in his hands and looking depressed. Lu Ban is so strange that he didn't know the truth until he asked.

The old man is a famous local rich man. In order to accumulate goodness, he is going to build a pagoda, which will be handed down through the ages.

The project was undertaken by that craftsman. After nearly three years of hard work, the pagoda was finally built. But somehow, although the pagoda was built, it always tilted horizontally or vertically. After measurement, the pagoda did tilt nearly ten degrees. People shook their heads and pointed at each other. The rich man thinks that building pagodas is against criticism, and he is very angry and detrimental to his integrity. Therefore, he had to settle accounts with the craftsmen himself: either tear down the pagoda and rebuild it, or straighten it, or send it to the government for severe punishment.

This puzzled the craftsmen. If they want to demolish and rebuild, they have to sell their children and women, and they can't bear the economic pressure if they lose everything. If you straighten the tower, it won't work, because although the pagoda is made of wood, it still weighs about 1 million Jin, so you can only look at the tower and sigh!

Lu Ban looked around the pagoda carefully, and then looked at the craftsmen who were at a loss. He went over to comfort and said, "Don't worry, just find me some wood and I can straighten it alone in less than a month!" "

Hearing this, the craftsman was dubious, but there was no other way. So he carried the wood and waited with a glimmer of hope. As for Luban, he didn't let anyone intervene to help him. He cut the wood he carried with him into many inclined Xiao Mu wedges and knocked them down one by one from the hypotenuse of the tower, so that the hypotenuse was slowly lifted. After a month of turbulence in the dark, the pagoda really stood up.

The craftsman gratefully asked Lu Ban, "Duke En, why can you make the pagoda stand upright in this way?"

Lu Ban replied: "Because the leaning tower is made of wood, it is a bucket structure, and the tension between the components is relatively large, which can form an organic whole, so it can be righted by wedging. The wedge is inclined, so it is easier to drive in, which has the function of' four doubles'. After driving in, it can raise the height of the inclined plane of the tower so that the tower is no longer inclined. "

A long time ago, there lived more than a dozen families at the foot of Longshan. There is an old man named Youbo who likes playing chess very much. He has two daughters and a son, named Youyun, who is not married. The family is diligent and thrifty, and they live a good life.

This summer, Uber went to the mountains to repair trees. Because the weather is hot and dry for a short time, I am sweaty, thirsty, tired and hungry. I want to have a rest on the big locust tree in the southwest. When I got under the tree, I saw two white-haired old men playing chess there, with a teapot and two bowls beside them, so I went to have a look.

Because I often play chess with others at home, I am very familiar with chess, so I can't help talking to two old people and sometimes pointing fingers. Two white-haired old people were also very enthusiastic about him and let Uber drink a bowl of tea. After Uber finished drinking a bowl of tea, he only felt a faint fragrance rising from his stomach. What is hot, tired and hungry? Don't mention the lightness of being all over. After a while, I stood in front of the stone stage where two old people were playing chess, and vaguely felt that the clouds on the hillside were black and white, thick and talking; In the field below the mountain, it turns yellow and green. When he went to sleep, the two old people had not finished playing chess. The more I read, the more I read, and finally I couldn't understand chess. Thinking that my son Youyun will go to Jining House tomorrow, I said hello to two old people and hurried down the mountain.

As soon as Uber arrived at the foot of the mountain, he felt that the road was getting worse and worse, which was different from the original. He doesn't know anyone from other places, and nobody knows him. According to my own impression, I found my own village, but the village is much bigger and more crowded than yesterday. The village is looking for its home from south to north and from west to east, but it can't be found. At this moment, an old man with a white beard came along. He greeted the old man and asked his name, age and why he lived here. The old man told him that his surname is You and he has lived in this village for generations. Today, he is 93 years old. Uber asked the old man again: Where did your cloud go? The old man told him that Youyun was his master. The old man was surprised and asked Uber, "How do you know my master?" Uber didn't answer, so he went up the hill. He wanted to ask two old chess players what was going on.

Uber came to the mountain and searched the whole mountain, but he couldn't find the two old people playing chess and the big locust tree. The more he thought about it, the sadder he felt: his wife left, his son left, no one in the world was close to him, and no one he knew. He couldn't help crying where he used to play chess. He cried from darkness to dawn, and from dawn to darkness. I don't know how many days he cried. The falling tears pierced the rock at the foot and formed a cave. When Uber was tired of crying, he fell asleep. When he was asleep, he heard an old man patting him on the shoulder and saying, "Don't cry, disciple. If your tears hadn't flowed to the East China Sea, the East China Sea would have become the sea of Wang Yang. When watching chess, there are many clouds, black rain, white snow, thick clouds and strong winds. The fields are yellow and green, which change all the year round. This is your knife. Go down the mountain and do something good for the world! " He suddenly woke up with nothing. Looking around, I found his knife. Although it is original, it shines with golden light and is extremely sharp.

Uber followed the old man's orders and went down the mountain. He lived in Longshan for many years, did many good deeds, got rid of hegemony and got peace. Later, the Jade Emperor recalled him to heaven. In memory of him, people call this tearful cave "Old Friend Cave".

Everyone was knocked down by the big waves in the depths of the sea, only the lucky waves did not die. He lay on a rotten board and fainted. The sea was pushed around like a ball, and finally he drifted to a place called Shangchuan Island, where the waves lived alone.

One day, he came out for a walk, saved a small grouper on the shore and set it free. It turns out that the little grouper is the daughter of Hailong. The little grouper decided to become a human being and live with Brother Waves. As the wind blows day by day, the little grouper becomes a smart and beautiful girl.

The small slate came to the door of Brother Waves. The waves came out, looked at them and said, "Girl, who are you and how did you float to this isolated island?" Little grouper: "Do you remember that you saved a little grouper at the seaside?" "Yes," said the waves. "That's me. I am the daughter of the sea dragon king. You saved my life. I want to thank you. " "The daughter of the sea dragon king." The waves said in surprise.

Then, they slowly reconciled and finally became husband and wife. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a chubby doll named Mi Long, which is very cute.

However, a happy life won't last long. Hailong came back from the door and couldn't find his daughter anywhere. When he heard that he lived with a man named Hai Lang, he flew into a rage. Then he turned into an old man with white hair and came to the house of the waves to scold him. He also said, "Daughter, if you don't come with me, I'll call the waves dead. I'll give you three days to think about it. "

Three days later, the sea dragon king stayed at the wave house, and the wave and the slate refused to separate. The sea dragon king ordered Xia Bing crab to take the waves away, and the small slate took Fan Long out of the gate and climbed a high mountain, watching the waves go away and shed tears. Finally, the slate and the dragon turned into stones, and everyone called it "Wang Mi Stone".

There is a swaying figure resembling Chang 'e. He chased the moon desperately, but he chased it three times, the moon retreated three times, he retreated three times, and the moon advanced three times. He couldn't catch up anyway.

Hou Yi had no choice but to miss his wife, so he had to send someone to Chang 'e's favorite back garden, put on a table sweetmeats, put on her favorite honey and fresh fruit, and offer a sacrifice to Chang 'e who was attached to him at the Moon Palace. After hearing the news that the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon became an immortal, people set up an incense table under the moon and prayed for good luck and peace to the kind Chang 'e. Since then, the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival in Yue Bai has spread among the people.

Sun Simiao was born in Jingzhao Huayuan (now Yaoxian County, Shaanxi Province) in the Tang Dynasty. I went to school at the age of seven and can recite thousands of words every day. When I grow up, I am good at talking about Laozi, Zhuangzi and a hundred schools of thought. When Xuan Di proclaimed himself emperor in the late Zhou Dynasty, he lived in seclusion in Taibai Mountain because of political turmoil, learned the Tao and refined his spirit, and cultivated himself and sought immortality. He is familiar with the astronomical calendar and the art of observing the sky, especially in treating diseases and using drugs. He is kind and works to accumulate virtue. On the one hand, he concentrated on repairing his roots, and on the other hand, he took saving people and things as merits. One day, he happened to go out and saw someone trying to kill a little green snake on the road. The snake is hurt and bleeding. Sun Simiao begged pedestrians to stop and immediately stripped off their clothes to redeem the snake, drugged it and put it back in the grass.

More than a month passed, and when Sun Simiao went out again, he met a boy in white with many attendants and horses. The boy dismounted and thanked Sun Simiao, saying, "My brother was saved by the Taoist priest, and my parents want to meet you." Sun Simiao saved many people, and he didn't take it to heart, so he didn't take it seriously when he heard this. The young man thanked the invitation sincerely again, and Simiao had to ride his prepared horse and walk side by side with him. That Ma Rufei,-later arrived at a manor. The flowers and trees there are all showing spring scenery, the scenery is peaceful and beautiful, the gate is brand-new and gorgeous, and there are many people coming and going, which looks like a royal residence.

When the boy invited the Muse in, he saw a man with dignified manners, a white hat and a crimson robe, and many followers behind him. Seeing Simiao, I stepped forward to meet him happily and thanked him: "I miss Taoist very much, so I sent my children to see him." Not long ago, the child accidentally went out and was suddenly hurt by a fool. It's up to you to strip and save your life. There are many relatives here, and we are all grateful for Mr. Wang's rebirth. I am lucky to meet the Taoist priest today! "For a while, please enter the inner hall with the muse. It seems to be the inner residence of a palace. Seeing a middle-aged woman wearing Tsing Yi leading a child out, I thanked her again and again and said, "This child is a fool and injured. Only after the rescue of the Taoist priest did he avoid death. "Simiao remembered that he had saved a little green snake, and he couldn't help wondering: What is this place? Seeing that the attendants are all eunuchs and handmaids, the attendants call those who wear white hats "kings" and middle-aged women "concubines". They are very surprised and quietly ask the people around them, "What is this place?" Answer: "This is Jingyang Shuifu. "It turns out that this' king' is the dragon king of Jingyang. The Dragon King invited guests to accompany him, arranged banquets and played music to entertain Sun Simiao. Muse refused, saying that he was persuaded by the valley and could only drink a few glasses of wine.

After staying in Shuifu for three days, the Dragon King asked Sun Simiao what he wanted as a thank-you gift. Sun Simiao replied, "I live in Shan Ye, and I only like practicing Buddhism. I meditate and exercise my mind. Although I see all kinds of things in my eyes, I have no desire in my heart. " The Dragon King gave him beautiful tulle, precious beads and gold, but politely refused to accept it. "Taoist priests don't take them seriously," said the Dragon King. How can I repay you? " So he ordered his son to take 30 prescriptions hidden in the Dragon Palace to the Muse and said, "You are really a wise man. You can save the world and save people with them. " So he prepared servants and horses and sent Simiao back to the mountain where he lived.

Simiao was surprised at what happened to him. He tried to treat the disease with those 30 prescriptions, and the effect was wonderful. Later, he wrote 30 volumes of Qian Jin Fang and included Long Gong Fang in the book.

Fang is a famous doctor who has benefited the world countless times. Because of his success as a monk, superb medical skills and numerous rescues, Sun Simiao was honored as the King of Medicine by the people. In his hometown Yao County, people built a temple in memory of him. The mountain where the temple is located is called Wang Yaoshan, and the story of the intersection of Wang Yao and Wang Long is still circulating among the people around him.

A long time ago, there was a wide valley at the exit of Tieguan Gorge, covered with a fat coat. Dozens of villagers work hard here and live a stable life without worrying about eating and drinking.

In the cave on the east bank of the canyon, there is a Huanglong which has been cultivated for more than 300 years. It gets along well with the villagers nearby, and helps them when they are in trouble and is ready to help others. The local people worship him very much. Whenever there is drought, people go to caves in droves to beg for rain. In order to meet the needs of the villagers, Huanglong spit out thick purple fog from the cave and rose to the sky, which soon condensed into a dark cloud. At the moment, thunder rumbled and heavy rain poured down, which made the crops in the canyon harvest. In order to appreciate the kindness of Huanglong, the villagers set up a temple in front of Huanglong Cave to offer sacrifices.

I don't know how many years later, an oolong lived in a cave on the west bank. After more than a hundred years of training, it began to have some Taoist teachings. It saw that the incense in front of Huanglong Cave was very strong and there were many sacrifices, so it couldn't help but get greedy. I thought to myself: Hum! How capable Huanglong is, you respect me so much and don't take me seriously. Well, let me show you my magic, and then you will come to beg me. As a result, Oolong began to bully people. At this time, it happened to encounter a drought, and it took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and spit out flames, causing cracks in the fields, yellow crops and many people and animals to get sick due to heat. When Huanglong learned of this incident, he was busy distributing rain to clear the way, which made the plot of Oolong, Yinyi and Yinyi unsuccessful. In this way, after repeated contests, Huanglong saved the day. Oolong was very angry when he saw Huanglong's opposition everywhere.

One day, Oolong came outside Huanglong Cave and threatened Huanglong, saying, "You should leave the cave house quickly, or you will be buried in the cave, and you will regret it!" Faced with the unreasonable threat of oolong, Huanglong helped the other side with a kind word:' cultivating immortals' is our original creation, and it is wrong for you to do evil and harm people like this. The arrogant and unreasonable oolong roared: "Cut the crap and let you see my power today!" As soon as the words stopped, Oolong emitted a red light. With a loud noise, the temple collapsed and even the whole abode of fairies and immortals shook. The angered Huanglong rushed out of the hole and fought with Oolong. Two dragons are in the air, stretching their paws at each other. You grab me and bite me, and each performs unique skills. It was a wonderful battle, but it was dark. After 99-8 1 round, Oolong gradually became tired because his training skills were not as good as that of Huanglong. After the war, he retreated and fish scales were beaten all over the canyon. Up to now, people have seen colored stones in Ninghe River, which are said to be scales dropped by two dragons in a fight.

Just like Oolong's defeat and capture, he repeatedly called for help and begged for mercy. Master Guanyin swam here, inquired about the original solid, reprimanded Oolong, and dissuaded Huanglong from going easy on him, demanding that the two dragons be reunited and live in the same cave, so that fellow initiates could refine the way of becoming immortal to kill the people.

The villagers saw that Huanglong was bent on sending sex to the people and that Wulong had turned over a new leaf. They also raised funds to rebuild the temple and named it "Shuanglong Temple", where two dragons rained during the drought. In case of accumulated water, please clean it up. The villagers planted the valley green, the crops grew gratifying, and life improved day by day.

Yang Shen, a writer in the Ming Dynasty, passed by the Three Gorges, and when he heard the villagers praising Shuanglong's achievements in benefiting the people, he happily left four characters: "Protecting the Gorge and Helping the People". People made these four words into gold plaques and hung them in Shuanglong Temple in recognition of Erlong. To this end, this canyon is also called "Shuanglong Gorge".
