Yu Jianglong Guanshan, also known as Longmen, was cut into an empty rock, which was dozens of miles deep and the darkness could not be recovered. I entered with the fire of 1. There is a wild animal like a jackal, holding a night pearl, and its light is like a candle. There is a blue dog barking ahead. Yuji can travel ten miles, fascinated by day and night. When I realized that I was gradually enlightened, I saw that I had always been a jackal and turned into a human figure, all dressed in mysterious clothes. I saw another god, a snake with a human face, who was talking in words. God is a jade bagua diagram, listed on a gold plate. Ba Shen is waiting by. Jade said, "Hua Xu gave birth to a son. Is that you?" A: "Hua Xu is the god of nine rivers, so he can live." It's a jade slip, which is one foot and two inches long, so that the number of twelve o'clock can be combined to measure heaven and earth. Yu insisted on using this bamboo slip to calm the soil and water. The body of the snake god, that is, the body of Huang Xi 3. 【 Wang Jia of the Eastern Jin Dynasty 《 Notes 》 Volume II 】

The legend of Yu chiseling Longmen was first seen in Mozi's All-Love. Longmen is the narrowest part of the Shanxi-Shaanxi Grand Canyon, and the Yellow River roared down from the hukou. On the steep cliff, two big red characters are engraved impressively: Longmen. This mountain in Hejin, to the east of the canyon, is also called Longmen Mountain. There is a beautiful legend of "Peach Blossoms Leaping into Longmen in March".
Li Daoyuan's Notes on Water Classics in the Northern Wei Dynasty recorded: "The Longmen was carved by Yu, 80 steps wide, and there are still traces among the rocks." Legend has it that Dayu dug it when he was controlling water. Later generations called it Yumen because they missed Dayu's achievements in water control, and later passed it on to later generations. Yumen is called Yumenkou because it is an ancient ferry and a transportation hub in Qin Jin Province.
When the Yellow River flows through Yumenkou, it is confined between mountains and canyons. The closer to Longmen, the wider the riverbed. The roaring Yellow River, subject to the canyon, became furious, suddenly broke out, rampaged and thunderous, but was squeezed into the riverbed by the calm mountain canyon. Near the end of the canyon, at the dragon gate, a sharp turn and wild waves suddenly hit the cliff, roaring and roaring, flying out of layers of volley snow waves, forced to turn around, rushed into the boulder on the other side, and roared angrily and rushed into piles of snow waves that hit the sky. The muddy Yellow River, however, hit the wall and retreated, and immediately encountered a huge reef standing on the riverbed, and roared again. The river went straight into the sky, and after a loud noise, it fell trembling from the sky and fell to the bottom, which was considered as jumping out of the Longmen.
The legendary Longmen
The legend of emperor Han cheng
1 1 BC, Emperor Han Chengdi once visited Longmen and lamented the sinister here. In 396 AD, Yao Xing captured Hedong in the late Qin Dynasty, and Gong Liu, the satrap of Hedong in the west, guarded the Yellow River, making it impossible for Yao Xing to cross the river. Later, Yao Xing will lead Jiang Xue into Longmen and Puban, and finally force Gong Liu to surrender. Justin, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, passed by Longmen in 479 AD and sent people to worship Dayu, where he built Longmen Town. In 6 15, when Li Yuan was appointed as the envoy of Hedong in Sui Dynasty, he broke the fifth section and the second section in Longmen. Two years later, Li Yuan rose from Taiyuan to resist Sui, conquered Jiangxian and came to Longmen. His counselor Ren (Wang Xiang) suggested crossing the Yellow River from Liangshan, south of Longmen. Tang gaozu listened to Wang Xiang's words, and after crossing the river, he pointed to Hancheng, Shaanxi. In 6 19 AD, Liu Wuzhou approached Jiangzhou and captured Longmen. Li Shimin was ordered to crusade against Liu Wuzhou and cross the Yellow River through Longmen, where he annihilated Liu Wuzhou's army.
The three waves of Longmen, a thousand-year wonder of the Yellow River, have aroused the poetic sentiment of many literati in ancient and modern times.
Myth and legend of Longmen carp yue longmen
Long, long ago, before the Longmen was cut, Yishui was blocked by Longmen Mountain, and a big lake was piled up to the south of the mountain.
Carps living in the Yellow River have heard that Longmen is beautiful and all want to go sightseeing. They set out from the Yellow River in Jin Meng, crossed the Luohe River, and followed the Yi River to the splashing place of Longmen, but there was no waterway on Longmen Mountain, so they had to gather at the foot of the North Longmen Mountain. "I have an idea. How about we skip this Longmen Mountain? " A red carp said to everyone. "How can you jump so high?" "If you don't jump well, you will fall to your death!" The partners are confused and can't make up their minds. The big line carp volunteered and said, "I'll try it first." I saw it exhausted all its strength from half a mile away, like an arrow that left the string, jumping into the clouds for a long time, driving the clouds and rain in the air forward. A mass of skyfire came from behind and burned its tail. It endured the pain, continued to leap forward, and finally crossed Longmen Mountain and fell into the lake in the south of Shannan. In a blink of an eye, it became a dragon. Seeing this, the carp in the north of the mountain are scared to shrink together and dare not take any more risks. Just then, I suddenly saw a dragon descending from the sky and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm your partner Red Carp, because I jumped over the Longmen and became a dragon." You have to jump bravely! " "Hearing these words, the carp was encouraged and began to jump off the Longmen Mountain one by one. But except for a few who jumped into dragons, most of them couldn't get through. Anyone who can't jump over and fall from the air will have a black scar on his forehead. To this day, this black scar still grows on the head of the Yellow River carp.
Later, Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem specifically for this matter: "The Yellow River three-foot carp originally lived in Jin Meng, but it didn't last long, and all the fish returned."
Originally located in the southeast corner of Pingyuan County. It was built in 1573 (the first year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty) and was demolished during the Cultural Revolution. Up to now, only the stone tablet engraved with the word "Longmen" on the lintel of the cave (a provincial-level protected cultural relic) is left in Pingyuan County Library.
Longmen mountain is in Hedong, and Yu chiseled the mountain to break the door, and the width (width) is supplemented by the Ming manuscript. ) More than a mile, the Yellow River flows downstream. Cross-strait traffic is blocked. Every spring, the yellow carp goes upstream, and the winner turns into a dragon. Under the forest and Longmen, yellow carp haunt every year. They come from the sea and rivers. He who comes to the door at the age of one is only 72. When I first boarded the Longmen, clouds and rain followed, and skyfire burned its tail from behind and turned it into a dragon. (From "Three Ji Qin")
Translation:
Longmen is in Hedong. Dayu leveled Longmen Mountain and opened it for more than a mile. The Yellow River flows down from the middle, and the two sides cannot be opened to traffic. Every late spring, yellow carp go upstream, and those who cross the dragon gate become dragons. On another occasion, Linden said that under the Longmen, every year at the end of spring, yellow carp from the sea and rivers compete to come to Longmen. Within one year, there are no more than 72 carp on Longmen River. As soon as I boarded the Longmen, clouds and rain followed it. The fire in the sky burned its tail from behind, and it became a dragon.

Longmen memorial archway
It turned out to be the third filial piety memorial archway, located in Cangputang Village, Xizhen Town, Dachaoshan County (formerly Dashi Township). It was built by the emperor in the 17th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (18 12) to praise the virtues of Yang's filial piety. The memorial archway was magnificent in shape, fluent in calligraphy and realistic in design, and was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. 1989, the Party Committee and government of Dashi Township allocated funds to restore this historical relic and historic site 200 meters away from the original archway, and changed the memorial archway of the Third filial piety into the Longmen archway. The specifications and styles of the rebuilt archway are similar to those of the original one, but the text is slightly different.
