The legend of Fengyu Bridge

When entering Dong Township, you can often see unique Fengyu Bridges. Speaking of Fengyu Bridge, there is a myth and legend.

In ancient times, before the Pingping Village was opened, the Dong family lived in a small village on the hillside with only a dozen families. There was a young man named Buka in a small village who married a wife named Peiguan. The couple is very loving and almost inseparable. When the two of them came back from work, one carried firewood, the other carried grass, the other carried the hoe, and the other took care of the cows. They always followed each other. The crown was very beautiful. When the couple crossed the bridge, the fish in the river jumped out of the water to look at them with envy.

One morning, the river suddenly surged. The Buka couple were in a hurry to go to Xishan to work, so they couldn't care less and walked together to the small wooden bridge in front of the village. Just as they walked to the center of the bridge, a strong wind suddenly blew, which made Buka unable to open his eyes. Peiguan fell into the river with an "oops". Buka opened his eyes and saw that his wife was gone. Knowing that she had been blown down the river, he jumped into the water and dived into the river. However, I searched back and forth several times but couldn't find it. When the villagers found out, they rushed to help him search. After searching for a long time, they still couldn't find Pei Guan. What is going on?

It turned out that there was a crab spirit deep in the river bend, and it swept Pei Guan into a cave at the bottom of the river. All of a sudden, the crab spirit turned into a beautiful young man and wanted Peiguan to be his wife. Peiguan refused and even slapped him. He immediately showed a fierce look and threatened Pei Guan. Pei Guan cried and cursed loudly, and the sound of crying and cursing spread from the bottom of the river to the ears of a flower dragon upstream.

At this time, it was windy and rainy, and the waves were rolling. I saw a flower dragon in the waves, raising its head and looking around. When the dragon's head looks to the left, the waves hit the left, and the landslide on the left. When the dragon's head looks to the right, the waves hit the right, and the right bank breaks. The small wooden bridge had long been swept away by the waves. Everyone was frightened. But when the dragon head came to the beach in Buka, the waves calmed down after the dragon head clicked a few times. Then, Hualong made a circle on the water and rushed to the bottom of the river. Suddenly, the sound of "GuluGuluGulu" continued to be heard from the bottom of the river, and the large whirlpools kept spinning one after another. Then, a black smoke emerged from the water, rose into the air and turned into a dark cloud. The flower dragon rushed into the air in hot pursuit, tumbling about, pushing the black cloud down until it finally revealed its original shape. It turned out to be the black crab as big as the top of the drum tower. The black crab fled in panic and climbed to a height of three feet on the cliff. The flower dragon went down into the water and turned somersaults. With a swing of its tail, it swept the crab into the water again. After several rounds of this, the crab was exhausted and waddled towards the bamboo forest, hoping to use the bamboo to block the flower dragon. But the flower dragon jumped up and sprayed water from its mouth, causing the bamboo forest to fall down one by one, and the crabs fell into the river again. After the flower dragon followed closely to the bottom of the water, the waves rolled and went down the river. At this time, the black crab could no longer be seen. Later, not far from the river bend, a crab-shaped black stone was revealed, which is where Hualong calmed the crab spirit. This stone is called crab stone by later generations.

When the river calmed down, I heard a woman’s voice calling on the opposite river beach. Buka took a look and saw that it was his wife. Buka asked a few people to swim over immediately. After landing, Peiguan said to Buka: "Thanks to Hualong for saving her!" Everyone then knew that Hualong saved her, and they were all grateful to Hualong. At this time, the flower dragon flew back upstream, nodding to people from time to time.

This incident quickly spread throughout Dong Township. Everyone transformed the small wooden bridge near the water into a large wooden bridge like an aerial promenade. They also carved patterns of flower dragons on the four central pillars of the bridge to wish that the flower dragon would always be there. After the completion of the large wooden bridge in the form of a promenade in the sky, a grand celebration ceremony was held, which was very lively. At this time, colorful clouds floated in the sky, shaped like a long dragon, and there were thousands of rays of light. When everyone took a closer look, it was the flower dragon coming back to visit everyone. Therefore, later generations called this bridge Huilong Bridge. Some places are also called Flower Bridge, and because the bridge can shelter from wind and rain, it is also called Wind and Rain Bridge.

2. The legend of Huixian Bridge

Huixian Bridge is on Minzu Road in Yuzhong District, right in the center of the square in front of Huixian Tower today. Huixian Bridge disappeared long ago. The author's uncle came to Chongqing to work in the early 1920s and never saw the bridge. However, the place name of Huixianqiao existed until the 1980s.

In ancient times, there were not many people in Chongqing, and the area around Daliangzi (now Xinhua Road) was still a forest. A small stream flows down from Daliangzi, approximately along the current Zhengyang Street, through Dayanggou, to Hongyadong, and flows into the Jialing River. Huixian Bridge is a bridge on this creek, probably less than 10 meters long. The reason why it is called Huixianqiao is that it is said that someone met an immortal here. However, there are many versions of the legend.

One theory is: There was an old man who opened a cold tavern at the end of the bridge, and a Taoist priest from Laojun Cave on the south bank often came to drink in his tavern. The Taoist leader invited the old man to play in Laojun Cave. The old man went, and the Taoist priest treated him to some bean curd. He brought out a bowl of bean curd, and the two of them couldn't finish it. In the afternoon, the old man returned to the tavern. The old woman was so surprised and said, "You haven't come back for so many years?" The old man said, "You are unconscious. I have only been playing for a long time." But when he looked in the mirror, he actually had snow-white hair. long beard. Only then did the old man realize that the Taoist priest he met was a god. The story spread from person to person, so people called the bridge in front of the tavern Huixian Bridge.

Another theory is that there was a girl living under Hongyadong who often went to the Jialing River to wash clothes. Once, her laundry was washed away by the river. A single fisherman saw it on the riverside and rowed his fishing boat to pick it up for her. As a result, the two became familiar with each other. One day, the girl's mother fell ill and died. The girl had no money to bury her, so she jumped into the river in a hurry. The fisherman rescued her and said to her: "I caught a golden carp in my net and sold it immediately. After I sold it, I went to buy a shroud and a coffin." Unexpectedly, he carried the fish into the city and just now When we walked to the bridge, all the lively golden-armored carp were dead. How could they be sold for any money? The fisherman was so anxious that he jumped up on the bridge and cried. At this time, he heard a voice coming from the Tutu Temple: "Make way quickly, the Eight-hole Immortal is coming!" He looked up and saw eight beggars coming, but he didn't care, knelt down and Ask the gods for help. The leader was a lame old man holding an iron crutch. He said, "We are all beggars. We have nothing to eat. How can we help you?" The beggar, who was carrying a sword, picked up a stone and threw it into the fishermen. The fisherman said, "All your fish are alive. Why don't you take them and sell them quickly?" The fisherman took a look and was determined. Throw the stone into another basket and the fish will live. When I looked again, all the beggars were gone. So the fisherman sold the fish for a good price, buried the girl's mother, married the girl, and settled down at this bridge. This bridge was also named Huixian Bridge.

3. The legend of Zhaozhou Bridge

Zhaozhou in ancient times is now Zhao County in Hebei Province. There are two stone bridges in Zhaozhou, one in the south of the city and one in the west of the city. The big stone bridge in the south of the city looks like a rainbow stretching over the river, magnificent and majestic. According to folklore, this big stone bridge was built by Lu Ban; the small stone bridge in the west of the city looks like a small white dragon floating on the water, vivid. Legend has it that this small stone bridge was built by Lu Ban's sister Lu Jiang. These two bridges are well repaired! "Little Cowherd" was performed on the stage, and there were also lyrics like this: "Grandpa Lu Ban built the stone bridge in Zhaozhou, the jade railings were left by the saint, Zhang Guolao rode a donkey on the bridge, and Lord Chai's cart rolled over a ditch." It is sung here. The legend of Lu Ban repairing the Zhaozhou Bridge.

According to legend, Lu Ban and his sister traveled around the world and when they reached Zhaozhou, they were blocked by a vast white Mihe River. On the riverside, people pushing carts, carrying burdens, selling onions and garlic, riding horses to take exams, and pulling donkeys to meet, were noisy, vying to cross the river into the city. There were only two small boats swinging back and forth in the river, and they couldn't pass a few people in half a day. Lu Ban saw it and asked: "Why don't you build a bridge across the river?" People said: "The river is wide, deep, and the waves are strong. Who dares to build it? Even with a lantern, you can't find such a bridge." Skilled craftsman!" Lu Ban was moved after hearing this, and he discussed with his sister Lu Jiang to build two bridges for pedestrians.

Lu Ban said to his sister: "Let's build the big stone bridge first and then the small stone bridge!"

Lu Jiang said: "Okay!"

Lu Ban said; "Building a bridge is hard work, don't be afraid of hardship!"

Lu Jiang said: "Don't be afraid!"

Lu Ban said: "Just don't be afraid. You are stupid. My hands are clumsy, and I will be in trouble if I am afraid of hardship." This sentence made Lu Jiang unhappy.

Anyone who goes to the Zhaozhou Stone Bridge can see that there used to be a big handprint of Lu Ban holding the bridge under the bridge, but now it cannot be seen clearly.

(Note: According to historical records, Zhaozhou Bridge was designed and built by Li Chun, a craftsman of the Sui Dynasty.)

4. The legend of Wuli Bridge

"Wuli Bridge" is a stone arch bridge between Zhuchang Village and Wuli Village in Zhuchang Town, Wudang District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province. The local Buyi people have this legend about the origin of the bridge.

A long time ago, there was a wide and deep river in Zhuchang. There was a village on both sides of the river. In order to facilitate communication with each other, one day, people from the two villages organized dozens of strong laborers to work together. A wooden bridge more than ten feet long and three feet wide was erected on the river. However, the wooden bridge disappeared the next day. Everyone thought that the bridge was not repaired firmly and was washed away by the water, so they re-selected the strongest wood and invited skilled craftsmen to build a second bridge.

That night, something strange happened. On a night when the bright moon was in the sky, suddenly strong winds arose, dark clouds rolled in, lightning flashed and thunder fell, and heavy rain fell from the sky. The waves on the river were rolling, as if they were going to break down the cliffs on both sides. After a black wave dissipated, a monster appeared on the river. He said viciously: "Build a bridge and you want to walk over me. Huh, I'll watch you build it! After you build one, I'll destroy another. I want you to have a taste of my old dragon." It's so powerful." After saying that, it shook its body and turned into a green dragon with fangs and claws. It dived into the water and stirred up waves several feet high. With a "crash" sound, the wooden bridge suddenly became countless. The clear pieces of wood drifted downstream along the waves.

Early the next morning, people from the two villages came to the river and found that the wooden bridge was missing again. Everyone was talking about it. Some said: "Which person with bad conscience caused the bridge to collapse?" Some said: "I'm afraid it was washed away by the flood!" Others said: "Maybe it was blown down by the wind. "Everyone kept talking, but no one was sure why the bridge collapsed, so we had to let the matter of repairing the bridge go.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have suffered greatly from taking the long detour. After many discussions, they decided to replace wood with stone and build a tall stone bridge.

After five months of hard work, a tall and large stone arch bridge was finally built. The bridge has a simple shape, with a pair of angry-eyed lions on both ends. Looking from a distance, it looks like a beautiful rainbow. Because the village to the north of the bridge is five miles away from the village to the southeast, people called the bridge "Wuli Bridge".

One night not long after the stone bridge was repaired, the monster——the old dragon spirit came to the river again. When it set off a vicious wave and was about to collapse the stone bridge, suddenly circles were released from under the bridge. There was a golden light, and at the same time there was a thunderous roar from the bridge. The old dragon spirit was startled. Just as it was about to dive into the water, a golden circle suddenly flew over and trapped its head in one move. Then, another big iron chain flew over and tied its body tightly. The old dragon spirit was so painful that he rolled around on the water. At this time, an old man standing in the middle of the bridge held a gleaming sword in his hand, pointed at the old dragon spirit and shouted loudly: "Evil dragon, do you still dare to do evil?" The old dragon spirit was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy. .

It turns out that an immortal saw the old dragon spirit overturning a wooden bridge and killing people. He went to report it to the Jade Emperor, who ordered him to subdue the old dragon spirit. Seeing that the old dragon spirit had already admitted his crime, but he was afraid that other water monsters would cause trouble again, he pointed with his sword and made a pair of golden ducks fly into the bridge pier with a golden pole in their mouths. Then, the immortal took the old dragon spirit back to heaven to repeat the decree. For hundreds of years, this pair of golden ducks and this golden pole have been guarding this stone bridge, so that the stone bridge still spans both sides of the river intact.
