Legend has it that a long time ago, the southwest of Shajiao, Guangdong Province was the haunt of the Dragon King of the South China Sea. One day, Yaniang, the youngest daughter of the Dragon King, ran to the mainland beach to play alone and swam westward to Lianhua Mountain. Who knows that there is a tiger spirit living on this mountain. It is pregnant and looking for food everywhere. I swooped down as soon as I saw Yaniang. Yaniang was scared out of her wits and ran back. The dragon king was frightened, and immediately ran out of the Dragon Palace with the shrimp, soldiers and crabs, and saw that Yaniang's life was at stake. Shrimp, soldier and crab will pound the tiger with magic wand. When the tiger was injured, it gave birth to a stillbirth. However, the Dragon King was still worried, fearing that it would come back from the dead, so he locked the tiger and stillbirth in the river with a golden lock and became two mountain islands lying across the Pearl River. Later people called it Dahushan. Tiger Mountain and Tiger Mountain are like two gatekeepers, hence the name Humen.
