Zhang rode a donkey backwards across the bridge.

Longjishan Natural Scenic Area is located in Xincai Town, northeast of Suixi County, north of Wangzhuang Town of Xincai Town. There are three hills strewn at random, and the folk song "Three mountains and one mountain make an emperor immortal". Zhang was born here. Zhang, whose real name was born in the late Northern and Southern Dynasties, died in the Kaiyuan period of Tang Dynasty recorded in the Book of Tang Dynasty. When I was young, my family was poor and I went to Suixi to learn wine making. In the process of learning brewing, he became a monk at Dafang Temple in Longjishan after a serious illness. He stole the immortal ginseng from the old monk in the temple, and the donkey became a "god donkey" after drinking the ginseng soup. Zhang was afraid of being caught up by the old monk, so he simply rode on a donkey and looked back and fled. Since then, he has traveled all over the world and become a member of the Eight Immortals. In Longjishan Natural Scenic Area, there is a stone carving of "Zhang Riding an Donkey Inverted" established by the local government in 2002. Dafang Temple in Longjishan was built in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It is a Buddhist temple similar to a bungalow. According to legend, this temple was built when Buddhism was introduced into China.

Why does Zhang ride a donkey backwards?

In ancient times, there was a skillful craftsman named Lu Ban. He spent one night building a big stone bridge on the river in the southern suburbs of Zhaozhou City. This exciting news was quickly spread in all directions by the local people, and it spread farther and farther, reaching the sky. Fairy Zhang heard about it. Curious Zhang didn't believe that Lu Ban had such a great skill, so he rode a donkey straight to the river on the outskirts of Zhaozhou, hoping to find out. On the way, Zhang met Wang Chai's car and his car again and invited them to Zhaozhou.

The three men came to the river on the outskirts of Zhaozhou, and when they took a closer look, they could not help secretly marveling. You see, Zhaozhou is like a black dragon flying, the crescent moon is like a cloud, and it is like a Changhong drinking stream, and Yuhuan is half heavy. That's great. The three men praised: "Luban really deserves his reputation for building a bridge. It' s really a wonderful thing in the world! "

Just then, Zhang, who was actively calculating, patted Prince Chai on the shoulder and said calmly, "We don't want to come in vain, we should test Lu Ban and don't make him proud."

After listening to this, Master Chai and he agreed with each other very much, and repeatedly said, "Good idea, good attention!" While speaking, the first three immortals of Lu Ban came face to face and immediately greeted them: "Welcome three distinguished guests! Give me a lot of advice! "

Zhang asked, "Mr. Luban, I heard that the bridge you built is very good and famous all over the world. Can I ride a donkey? "

Lu Ban listened and said casually; "Since the bridge was built, thousands of troops and horses have been able to pass, you little donkey."

Zhang went on to say, "If I can ride a donkey safely, where will I come from?"

After that, ride the donkey backwards. "Besides," if the bridge you build can't stand my trip, please fly away. Don't show off here and call yourself a world craftsman. "

Lu Ban said with a wry smile, "All right, I'll agree to your terms." . "So, Yang Yang hand to cross the bridge.

At this time, Princess Chai and Zhao Kuangyin also patted their chests and asked, "What do you think of us?"

Lu Ban glanced at the two of them with his eyes and casually said, "The carts and cars have crossed the bridge from morning till night. With your broken unicycle, you can still crush the bridge?" That's ridiculous! "So I let you two cross the bridge again.

Sanxian was very unhappy to see Lu Ban so arrogant. They thought to themselves, "You are a good Luban, so arrogant. Today, you got it right in the test. You must taste the three of us. "

In the blink of an eye, three people stepped onto the bridge. Zhang turned around and cast a spell to gather the stars, the sun and the moon, and then conveniently put them in his wallet. Master Chai and the five mountains were gathered together by magic and gently put on the cart. Due to the sudden increase in load, the donkey was squashed and the car was squashed. Before the three of them reached the top of the bridge, the bridge couldn't stand it and began to shake. When Lu Ban saw it, the situation was not good! Hurriedly jumped into the river, raised one hand and tried his best to hold the bridge, which turned a corner.

The three of them walked safely through Zhao Zhouqiao. After crossing the bridge, Zhang gave it to Lu Ban face to face and rode the donkey backwards from then on.
