What are the legends about the Yi River?
The ancient Yi River has a long history and ancient myths are widely circulated. Perhaps the legendary Yihua girl is the ancient Yiyuan people. According to legend, Yihua of Yimeng Mountain became the maid of Guanyin. Yihua came to the South China Sea with Guanyin Bodhisattva, still missing her hometown and parents. On this day, Guanyin went to the Flat Peach Fair and asked Yihua to drive Xiangyun with her, holding a jade vase in her hand. When they came to the sky above Yimeng Mountain, Yihua secretly looked at his hometown, only to see Jiao Shan Tuling everywhere, without any green. Even the wells where villagers drink water have dried up. I don't know how my parents and villagers live. Shi Hua looked at tears, while Guanyin was not paying attention, she secretly dipped Yang Liuzhi's son in the water in the jade bottle and sprinkled it a few times below. At this moment, it rained heavily on Yimeng Mountain, and all over the mountains were full of flowers, and thousands of trees were lush ... Shi Hua was happy to see this situation. Looking up, Guanyin Bodhisattva had gone far, and Yihua hurried to catch up. Outside the worse gate, Guanyin asked for a jade bottle, and asked a flower to wait outside the worse gate to drink fairy wine and eat flat peaches at Yaochi Fairy Palace. There was a chance to release the flowers. She took advantage of guarding Nantianmen Mountain carelessly and ran back to Yimeng Mountain in Xiangyun. Guanyin Bodhisattva went to the Flat Peach Blossom Club and searched the Heavenly Palace, but no flowers were found. At this time, clairvoyance told the Jade Emperor about the rain in Yimeng Mountain area. The Jade Emperor asked who had rained, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva held her finger and counted it. It turned out that Yihua stole the heavy rain and ran back to his hometown! Bodhisattva was furious and invited the rich boy to catch Yi Hua together. Yihua returned to the world, met her parents and villagers, and was crying for the scene after her departure. Suddenly I heard that Guanyin was going to take her back to the Heavenly Palace to apologize. The villagers said, "Son, you risked your life to save this creature. Nothing I say can make you go back to heaven to suffer. Hide quickly. " The villagers hid Yihua in a cave. Lucky boy shouted in the sky, but he didn't see the explanation of flowers. Guanyin Bodhisattva said helplessly, "Listen, you people in the inferior world: If I don't hand over the Sakyamuni flower for a while, I will let the lucky boy spew out divine fire and burn Yimeng Mountain to scorched earth!" Yihua heard this in the cave and thought I couldn't implicate my fellow villagers, so she ran out. Guanyin pressed the cloud head down and pointed to a flower and said, "Good girl, you have committed a heinous crime. Come with me to take the fall in heaven! " Yi Hua said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, you can kill her at will. Yi Hua will never leave her parents and other villagers until she dies!" Guanyin urged for a long time, but Yihua just didn't move. She couldn't help but say angrily, "well, since you have such ambitions, I will be merciful and help you!" " With a wave of his hand, Shihua immediately turned into a river. Guanyin sighed and drove back to the South China Sea with her good boy. Smart and smart, the flowers were turned into a small river by the bodhisattva, and the villagers were so distressed that they burst into tears. This cry was earth-shattering, and the tears shed washed the river into a big river. This river, like Yihua's nostalgia for his hometown, flows around the mountain and flows into the sea. People look at the river and think of flowers, so they call this river "Yi River".
