Zhenjiang makes people yearn for life, rich in exotic animal and plant mineral resources, and folk festivals in Ningbo.

Emperor Qianlong visited Jiangnan six times and stayed in Zhenjiang for a long time each time. He has had enough of Zhenjiang's mountains and rivers, and he is also tired of Zhenjiang's famous foods, such as shad, swordfish, lion's head, crystal dishes, balsamic vinegar and Baihua wine. And the minister, Zhang Yushu, (Zhang Yushu was a college student and official minister in Kangxi period, and the chief reader of Kangxi Dictionary. Zhenjiang is his hometown and lives in Nanmen Street. There are many local legends about him, but they all connect him with Emperor Qianlong. ) Originally from Zhenjiang, I am familiar with the local situation and travel around with the emperor every time. Gan Long is also tired of listening to local allusions, funny jokes and some poems he hummed for the emperor.

Probably the last time I went to Jiangnan, Emperor Qianlong lived in Jinshan Palace and suddenly had a whim: I have seen all the famous mountains and rivers here, but I have never been to the streets and alleys in the city; The officials and monks who have been serving me are very restrained. You might as well let me go on a private visit alone. Emperor Qianlong changed his costume, but he couldn't beat Zhang Tianshu. He wanted to wander around the city alone and unconsciously walked into a street near the old south gate. Qianlong was looking in all directions when he heard a creak. A family in the street opened the door and came out. A woman of about twenty years old, although often dressed up, looks very beautiful. When Emperor Qianlong saw it, he pretended to have lost something, looked around in front of the house and kept glancing at the young woman.

The young woman should stand at the door for a while, waiting for a drummer. ) Go and buy some needle and thread. People who don't want to shake their drums didn't wait, but they saw a frivolous man wandering in the street. A pair of thieves stared at themselves, their faces flushed, and their mouths whispered "Bad luck". Just about to turn around and go home, Emperor Qianlong was afraid of missing the opportunity and rushed to her side in three steps: "What's the name of this little lady?" What does your husband do? Seeing that your family is not wide, you might as well come to Beijing with me instead of worrying about daily necessities. "

The young woman saw him running. I was shocked and then listened to his remarks. I'm really scared and I hate it. It is too late to close the door. I was so anxious that I scolded with a straight face: "You, you, where are you from?" Go away, don't ask for a slap! "

If Emperor Qianlong is in the palace, which concubine and maid-in-waiting dare to disobey him? This little cloth didn't take him seriously. He immediately got angry with the house, stretched out his hand and tugged at the woman's clothes, and threatened her: "Come with me quickly, don't shout, and spare you from dying!" "

The young woman saw that he was actually touching, and she was even more anxious and angry. Gan Long's arm was separated with his left hand, and his right hand was raised, neither crooked nor oblique, giving Emperor Gan Long a crisp mouth and shouting, "Help! Help! The robber robbed someone! " In the blink of an eye, her family came out. When the neighbors next door heard someone shouting "help", they all opened the door. Emperor Qianlong saw that the limelight was wrong and didn't take his escort with him. Don't suffer immediate losses, wipe the oil off your feet and run away. Rabbit is his grandson-he can't run fast!

After Qianlong returned to the palace, he consulted with the eunuch he trusted. He didn't say that he ate the woman's mouth, only that he would take out the cloth that violated his purpose. But I don't know my daughter's name, and I haven't seen her door facing east and west. Where can I catch her? After careful consideration, Gan Long only remembered that there were seven pebbles on the ground in front of her house, which together were the shape of the Big Dipper. All right! Suppose the family with the seven-star stone in front of the door will catch the murderer!

The news was heard by Minister Zhang Yushu. Zhang Yushu is from Zhenjiang. He was afraid that the case would make a big deal. He was involved with all the officials and gentry in Zhenjiang, so he ran to the street overnight and shouted out all the men, women and children in the street. Before dawn, every door was paved with seven-star stones of the same size.

The next day, the trusted eunuch took a group of guards to the streets to arrest people. Unexpectedly, there are seven-star stones at every door, and I don't know which one to catch. I had to become dejected and despondent, go back and reply, and ask the emperor to admit it himself.

Emperor Qianlong was disappointed to see if he caught anyone, and he was reluctant to let him go down and catch him again. He is a blind man who eats wonton-he knows it himself: if it gets out, it will be a disgrace to him. I had to sigh and pretend to be generous: "Forget it, don't catch it, Wang is ignorant, forgive them!" " "

Emperor Qianlong hated Zhenjiang people from then on, and even Jinshan and Jiao Shan, who always praised them, couldn't tell. In front of the ministers, as soon as he mentioned Zhenjiang, he said, "Zhenjiang is really poor, disgusting, bitchy and unruly!" " "

The Story of White Snake and Xu Xian

There are many beautiful legends about the West Lake. For example, the broken bridge in Canxue is the place where the white snake and Xu Xian met in the famous folklore of China, The Legend of the White Snake.

Legend has it that a white snake practiced for a thousand years and finally became a beautiful and dignified white snake. Another green snake practiced for 500 years and became a young and energetic Xiaoqing girl. The two of them went to the West Lake to play together. When they came to Broken Bridge, White Snake saw a handsome white-faced scholar in the crowd, and her heart was full of love. Xiaoqing kept quiet and it rained cats and dogs. Xu Xian, a white-flour scholar, came to the lake by boat with an umbrella. He just saw the white snake and Xiaoqing being caught in the heavy rain. Xu Xian was busy giving them an umbrella to shelter from the rain, but he kept away from it, leaving it to rain. Seeing that Xu Xian is so honest and shy, White Snake likes it even more, and Xu Xian also has feelings for the beautiful White Snake. Under Xiaoqing's matchmaking, Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi became relatives and opened a pharmacy near the West Lake to save lives. The villagers all like them very much.

However, Fahai, the mage of Jinshan Temple, thinks that the white snake is a kind of devil and will hurt people. He quietly told Xu Xian that the white snake was the incarnation of the white snake and taught Xu Xian how to recognize it. Xu Xian expressed doubts about this. In a blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival arrived, and all people drank realgar wine to ward off evil spirits. Xu Xian forced the white snake to drink realgar wine according to the method of Fahai religion. White snake is pregnant at this time, and she can't refuse Xu Xian. After drinking, she immediately showed the true shape of the snake, and Xu Xian was scared to death at once. In order to save Xu Xian, White Snake came all the way to the holy mountain of Kunlun to steal Ganoderma lucidum, regardless of pregnancy. The White Snake and the guards guarding Ganoderma lucidum fought desperately. The guards were moved by the White Snake and gave her Ganoderma lucidum. After Xu Xian was saved, she knew that White Snake really loved herself, and the husband and wife were more loving.

However, Fahai still can't tolerate white snakes living on the earth. He tricked Xu Xian into Jinshan Temple and forced him to become a monk. Bai Niangzi and Xiaoqing are very angry. They led the water army to attack Jinshan Temple in an attempt to rescue Xu Xian. They kept making trouble, causing floods, and Jinshan Temple was surrounded by floods. This is the legendary "flooded golden mountain". Fahai also showed great magic. Because she was giving birth, the White Snake couldn't beat Fahai, so she had to escape under the protection of Xiaoqing. When they fled to Broken Bridge, they met Xu Xian who escaped from Jinshan Temple. After the disaster, Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi met at the first broken bridge. They had mixed feelings and couldn't help crying. Fahai was born when the white snake gave birth to his son. He ruthlessly suppressed the white snake under the Leifeng Tower near the West Lake, cursing that the white snake would never return to the world unless the West Lake dried up and the Leifeng Tower fell down.

Many years later, Xiaoqing repaired pottery and returned to the West Lake. She defeated Fahai, drained the water of the West Lake, knocked down the Leifeng Pagoda, and finally rescued the white snake. Gold Joule Yi Shan Bullet

Gold Joule Yi Shan Bullet

The story probably comes from the variation of the ancient myth "Erlang God takes mountains to drive the sun". This legendary "Erlang God" is not a "reclamation", but a display of divine power. Through the legendary "Eight Immortals" to the Flat Peach Festival, on the way, I mocked Erlang God: "Erlang God, Erlang God, your sister and mortal", which led to a legend of "God-man" fighting.

This story left a rich imagination for readers. After reading this story, they seem to have watched an ancient science fiction movie. ...

According to legend, the two mountains of Jin and Jiao were picked by an ancient man of God. Who is this man of god? It's agarwood

Chen Xiang's mother is the sister of Erlang God Yang Jian. She was beaten behind Yinshan by her ruthless brother Erlang Shen, and Aquilaria was born in Yinshan.

One year, on the birthday of the Western Heavenly Queen Mother, Erlang God went to the Flat Peach Festival with the immortals who went up to eight holes and down to eight holes. After eating the birthday wine, all the immortals dispersed. Erlang God and Eight Immortals walked out of the worse gate. Walking in front is the fairy Tie Guai Li; Followed by Lv Dongbin, he has five whiskers and a Huang Longjian on his back. Han Xiangzi was so happy today that he took out his Zijin Xiao and wanted to play a song. Ironically, Zhang was either drunk by Shoujiu or crazy, and actually rode backwards on the donkey's back and jumped up. Walking beside him is He Xiangu, who is in a good mood.

Two looked at Zhang and He Xiangu and leaned her head against * * * whispering, turned and looked at him, smiling while covering her mouth, very unhappy. He took a few steps, pricked up his ears, and recognized that He Xiangu and Zhang were talking about his sister's "defection to mortals". His face suddenly turned red to his ears.

Erlang Shen listened, his eyes rolled around, and one eye in the middle blinked, shaking like a hammer of a small bronze bell, and he was so angry that he could not speak.

Erlang Shen went home to check, and it really happened. How can a fairy family and a mortal get married! Sister broke the dogma, it doesn't matter In a rage, he beat his sister to the foot of Yinshan Mountain and never let her out again.

His sister gave birth to agarwood in Yinshan Mountain. Aquilaria wants to save her mother when she grows up, but Jiro can't stand it. Without saying a word, the two men fought. Erlang's skill is very high. Aquilaria sinensis has been taught by different people since childhood and has learned many spells. They fought for three days. It was a close call.

The two were fighting when suddenly a red wind blew, and Erlang turned into a tiger shaking his head and pounced on agarwood.

Aquilaria sinensis rolled on the spot, wearing armor and becoming a sharpshooter Li Guang. He pulled the bow and arrow, and only one arrow hit the tiger's left eye. When he drew the second arrow from the tiger's skin, Erlang became a weird boa constrictor. A snake has nine heads, each with a mouth with teeth, and the letters it sticks out are always several feet long. When agarwood saw it, it was unhurried and took the wind vertically into the air, becoming a strange bird with nine heads. Feathers are white and bright, and nine long mouths are the same as those of cranes. They are thin and sharp, as sharp as nine sharp knives. They aimed at the boa constrictor and stabbed it seven inches. If you tear it hard, it is nine cuts. Blood dripped from the air like a thunderstorm.

Jiro panicked and finally became a big ship, stopping in the middle of the river, which was several miles long. The bow of this ship is as big as the stern, and both are short, just like two big rafts. The hull is long and narrow, not conspicuous at all, so it is not easy to find among many ships!

I didn't know agarwood had a heart. He turned into a waterfowl, spread his wings in mid-air, looked around and soon found a flaw. It turns out that there are people on every boat in the river, and the boat changed by Erlang God is empty and there is no ghost.

Jiro took a deep breath and was secretly pleased. Suddenly he heard the whistling wind and a great god came from the sky. He picked two mountains on his right shoulder, one is Jinshan and the other is Jiao Shan. This god will throw two mountains into the boat from mid-air, one at the bow and the other at the stern. When they land on the boat, the boat will slowly sink into the river.

Therefore, the two mountains, Jin and Jiao, were in the middle of the river in ancient times. The hole poked out by the agarwood pole head was later called the Spiritual Cave in Jinshan and Jiaogong Cave in Jiao Shan, which was quite deep. How to pick it up if you don't poke deeply?

& lt the origin of the three mountains >

This is a story that combines myth and legend.

From the history of the three mountains, we can see the "trace" of the myth of "Jingwei filling the sea" in the ancient book Shan Hai Jing. Guo Pu wrote a cloud in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, "Those who rest on the soil say that the soil lasts forever, so they can stop the flood."

King Xiaoqin is the creative hero of Yaoshan Reclamation. He created a beautiful world-Jinshan, Jiao Shan and Beigushan in the struggle with the Dragon King and the Princess of the Dragon King. Although the story is short, it makes people feel beautiful because it shows the creative spirit of human beings. ...

Legend has it that when the Monkey King made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, the golden cudgel suddenly became bigger, soared into the sky and smashed into the sky in the northwest corner. Down to the ground, the land in the southeast corner was poked into the sea. Xiao Qin Wang said: "There are many mountains and no food; If there is more water and no food, it is better to fill the sea in the mountains! " As the saying goes, the mountain is high and the road is far. Once upon a time, the mountains were always in the northwest and the sea was in the southeast. King Xiao Qin has a magic whip called Yaoshan Whip. This is a treasure. All he has to do is lift this mountain whip and pull it hard, only to hear a "beep". Mountains, hills, high mountains and low mountains ... all people fall, crawl and run away in fear.

Xiao Qin Wang fills the sea along Yaoshan Mountain in the Yangtze River, and drives Qingshan Mountain to the East China Sea every day to fill a piece for him.

The sea dragon king watched and couldn't help but see that the sea was about to be filled up. How will our caviar shrimp grandson live in the future? I'm afraid I can't even live in the Crystal Palace if I keep filling it up like this. He urgently called yincui gorge to discuss countermeasures.

On this day, the king of Qin once again held the whip of Yaoshan and captured Jinshan, Jiao Shan and Beigushan ... from Kunlun Mountain, he shouted all the way to Zhenjiang.

At this time, it was already dark. After a day's hiking, Xiao Qin Wang was sweating and exhausted. He put the mountain whip in his arms and saw Jiao Shan parked in the middle of the river, Beigushan leaning against the river, and Jinshan squatting at the end, and none of them left.

King Xiao Qin looked up and saw a house by the river. The door was ajar, and he wanted to knock for the night. I just raised my hand and haven't knocked yet. I only heard a creak and the door opened automatically. A beautiful young woman came out of the room, smiling like a flower. She said, "Hakka, please come and sit in the house." Xiao Qin Wang was very polite when he saw this young woman. Since he was an inn, he entered the room generously. The young woman pointed to Xiao Qin's wet clothes and said, "Oh dear! What are you doing? You are too tired. How difficult it is! Take a break! " Said hurriedly draw water and pass tea, very diligent.

Xiao Qin Wang didn't feel tired at first, but after listening to her words, he really felt that he needed a rest. How sweet the young woman speaks, and he can't help feeling good. That night, the two chatted very speculatively, and the more they talked, the more emotional they became. Both of them had an admiring heart. Xiao Qin Wang also forgot the great event of Yaoshan's reclamation. They knelt down to the moon and vowed to each other. It turned out that they were lovers who fell in love at first sight.

The sun rose the next day. When Qin Xiaowang touched his hand, there seemed to be dew on his face. When he opened his eyes, he didn't sleep in the house, but lay in the open air by the river. Looking left and right, the handsome young woman is long gone. It turns out that he and his wife have been "dew husband and wife" all night (as the saying goes, "dew husband and wife" didn't take long. It is said that this is how it was handed down. Xiao Qin Wang knew that he had been cheated. At this time, my mind is much clearer, and there is another big thing to fill the sea in Yaoshan. He touched his side again, but fortunately Yaoshan whip was still there. He quickly raised his magic whip to fill the sea. Strange, when the whip was whipped, there was only a beep. No matter what mountains, hills, high mountains and low mountains are, they are scared to run straight. Not now. He smoked seventeen or eighteen times, and his hands were sore and swollen, but Jiao Shan, Beigushan and Jinshan still did not move. But the fish and shrimp in the river jump high one by one. Shrimp bends forward, fish wags its tail and rushes forward.

It turned out that this handsome young woman was none other than the Dragon King and Yincui gorge. The sea dragon king asked her to steal Qin Xiaowang's magic whip. Before dawn, the couple exchanged the whip of the big fish for the whip of the big mountain. So when the whip sounded, the mountain stopped moving and the fish and shrimp went straight ahead. Because Xiao Qin lost his whip, the mountain didn't go. Up to now, it is still the same as the beginning of Yaoshan: Jiao Shan is in front, Jinshan is behind, and it stops in the middle of the river, with Beigushan in the middle, next to the river. Later generations dressed these three mountains as beautiful scenic spots and became famous "Three Mountains" tourist attractions.

The legend of Jinshan pagoda

Jinshan Pagoda, named Cishou Pagoda, stands at the northwest peak of Jinshan, and was built in Qi Liang period 1400 years ago. The present tower was built in the 26th year of Guangxu in the late Qing Dynasty, with eight sides and seven levels. It is a brick-wood structure, which runs through from top to bottom and is surrounded by railings. It is a famous scenic spot in Jinshan.

The legend of Jinshan Pagoda seems incredible, but it contains profound scientific truth. Ancient Zhenjiang is located in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, near the sea, with a wide river surface and slow water flow. With the help of the buoyancy of the river tide, Jinshan Pagoda was erected. This story fully shows the wisdom and bold imagination of the ancient working people in China.

1962 Zhenjiang jianbi power plant refitted unit, there used to be a 100 large unit weighing more than tons and tens of meters high. In order to support a certain place in the northwest, it is necessary to transport the ship by land to destroy the highway, so it is transported by water, but the ship cannot level the dock. The transport workers just took advantage of the high tide for half an hour to raise the hull, level the dock and get through successfully.

Folklore is an encyclopedia created by the people, which not only has the value of literature appreciation, but also has the research value of natural science.

Once upon a time, Jinshan was in the middle of the river, so I had to go to Jinshan by boat. There is white water around Jinshan, and there is a steep cliff on one side of the mountain. There is a magnificent seven-story pagoda on the cliff, which can be seen hundreds of miles away and is very famous.

It is said that the Jinshan Pagoda just fell into the river when it was built. As the saying goes, it is called "abdominal belt". I turned from the front of the mountain to the back of the mountain, and I couldn't think of a good way to prove it. Under this pagoda is a cliff, and under the cliff is Bailong Cave. Once upon a time, Bailong Cave was completely submerged in water.

If you hit it, the cliff is high and deep, and there is no such long wood; Even with such a long piece of wood, there is a white river below. Where can it take root? As the saying goes, "fishermen have no nets-there is nowhere to start." Thousands of craftsmen on the construction site, on this day, the drums of Taiping drummed on the river, and a large number of rafts were placed in the upper reaches of the river, just like a long dragon, parked next to Jinshan. This person's mind is empty, and he wants to stay and is listless. He sat on the raft and looked at the Jinshan Pagoda in a daze. The sun tilted the shadow of the pagoda in the river. The more I look at it, the more I get bored, the more I think about it, the more depressed I am: Is this project difficult because I am such a masterpiece? It is better to jump into the river and die ... Thinking of this, he stood up involuntarily, looked at the pagoda shadow in the river and sighed deeply. His hand fell down and he was about to jump into the river when he suddenly felt the back of his clothes pulled. When he turned around again, he saw an old man with a white beard and smiled at him, looking like a craftsman. Before he could speak, the old white tiger opened his mouth and asked, "What do you do?"

"Wayimu!"

"Look at you listless. What's wrong with you? "

"Alas-!" The colonel sighed deeply and said, "Grandpa, tell you the truth! I had a problem building this pagoda. " When he said this, he shook his head, pointed to the pagoda on the cliff of Jinshan and said, "Look, this pagoda is inclined to the center of the river, and there is no way to straighten it. Well, I've been thinking about it for days, but I just can't figure out a way. How do you say to work? "

The old man with white beard laughed, stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Oh, what are you worried about? Isn't it difficult to hit it right? " "

The first time I heard this, I thought to myself, you old man have no burden on his shoulders, how light you speak, and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue. Then he said, "I know how to fight. Look at the cliff under this pagoda. There is a big river under the cliff. As the saying goes, rivers are bottomless. Where did you get such a long piece of wood? " "

"If you don't have a long one, use a short one."

"It's too short to reach the bottom of the river!"

"If you can't reach the bottom of the river, hit the raft." The old white tiger pointed to the raft at his feet.

As the first person to see the raft, I think this is also true. At this time, a strong wind blew on the river and the raft shook. He felt wrong again and said, "This raft can be moved."

"Oh, you really go the hard way. It doesn't matter whether you are active or not. Wouldn't it be great if you took root? No matter what you do, you must be careful. "

He smiled at first, but was confused by Tang Baihu's words. Like drinking honey, My Sweetie stood up, bowed respectfully to the old man, said thank you, and turned to the craftsman.

When the leader found the craftsmen, he immediately instructed them to lift the wood, pull the rope and proofread the pulp. They were busy for three hours. The work was finished, it was late, and the workers were scattered. I'm really happy as a boss. I haven't slept well for so many days, and I haven't even touched my teeth these two days. Now I am ready, as if the burden on my shoulders is heavy, and I am at ease. I ran home to fry two side dishes, drank four or two glasses of wine, fell on the bed, covered my head with a quilt and fell asleep. He slept till dawn, opened his eyes and ran into a raft. Today is the eighteenth. As the saying goes: "The third day tide, Shibashui Scenic Spot scenic spot." Today, the flood season has arrived, and the raft has risen with the tide, so the tower has fallen. The more I think about it, the more I get scared. I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat. No matter before dawn, I stood up and ran to Jinshan.

Before Zuo Tou ran to Jinshan, old Roy looked at the pagoda and froze. Overnight, with the help of the high tide, the pagoda tilted down and was pushed up again, no more or less, just to straighten it. The tide is out at this time. Everyone hung high, and the craftsmen who were working were carrying shovels in groups of three or five. When I arrived at Jinshan, I looked up and said, "No, hurry up and shout. Which one is loose?" "Look carefully again, this pagoda will be a problem. What's going on here? Ask the boss, the boss told the story of meeting the old white tiger. Everyone said that it must be Master Lu Ban's guidance, and with the help of the tide, the tower top was righted. He is telling us that no matter what we do, we must make more efforts to do it well.

Everyone is happy. ...
