What are the myths of the five mountains: East, South, West, North and Central?

1. Legend has it that a long time ago, when the world came into being, there was a man named Pangu who grew between heaven and earth. The sky rose by ten feet every day, the earth became thicker by ten feet every day, and Pangu also grew taller by ten feet every day. So day after day, year after year, he lived with indomitable spirit.

after a long period of 18, years, the sky is extremely high and the ground is extremely thick, and Pangu also grows extremely high. The gasification of his breath makes the wind, and the sound of his breathing turns into thunder. His eyes blink and blue light flashes, which is lightning. When he is happy, the sky becomes sunny and sunny, and when he is angry, it becomes rainy and continuous. Later, Pangu slowly aged, and finally died suddenly.

In an instant, the giant fell to the ground, his head became Dongyue, his belly became Zhongyue, his left arm became Nanyue, his right arm became Beiyue, his feet became Xiyue, his eyes became sun and moon, his hair became vegetation, and his sweat became rivers. Because Pangu created the world, later generations respected him as the ancestor of mankind, and his head became Mount Tai. Therefore, Mount Tai is called "the first mountain in the world" and has become the first of the five mountains.

2. Mrs. Wei is young and good at Taoism. She loves reading Laozi and Zhuangzi and aspires to immortals. She often takes flax powder and Fuqin pills and breathes gas and liquid. After several years of cultivation, she finally becomes a famous female Taoist. When he was young, he was forced to marry Liu Wen of Nanyang and had two sons. After Liu Wen's death, there was another war in the Central Plains, so he took his two sons to the south to avoid chaos. The second son was established, so he meditated in Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province, and sorted out Huang Ting Jing, which made many books clear.

He died in the ninth year of Emperor Xianhe in Jincheng (334), and was 83 years old. He was honored by Taoism as the first generation master of Shangqing School. Legend has it that she traveled from Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province by Yunfei to Hengshan Mountain, turning the cloud into a stone, which still stands next to the Huangting Temple under Jixian Peak. Mrs Wei was called "Mrs Hengshan" by later generations.

3. Princess Nanyang, the daughter of Emperor Liu Shuang of the Han Dynasty, married Wang Xian. At that time, Wang Mang, the consort, was in charge of the political affairs. Seeing that the country was in danger and the situation was chaotic, the princess advised Wang Xian to stay away from the chaos. Wang Xian insisted on not doing so, so the princess left the palace alone and went to Bai Yunfeng, Huashan to practice in seclusion. After one year's practice came true, she rode a crane and left by clouds.

Wang Xian suffered a lot in the imperial court, only then did he remember the princess's advice, and he came to Huashan to look for the princess. Under the guidance of the woodcutter, he found the princess embroidered shoes on the head of Beiling of Baiyun Peak, and bent down to pick them up. The shoes turned to stone, so people called the place where the princess left her shoes Driving Crane Ridge and Baiyun Peak Princess Peak.

4. It is said that Zhang Guolao, one of the immortals with eight caves, used to ride a donkey upside down and travel around the world in Wan Li several times a day after becoming an immortal in Hengshan Mountain. When not in use, Zhang Guolao will fold the donkey as thick as paper, put it in a towel box and carry it with him, which is light and handy. When you need to ride, take it out of the towel box, spray a little water, immediately restore it to the original donkey, and ride it to travel around the world. Up to now, there are still many relics and fairy tales of Zhang Guolao around Hengshan Mountain.

5. At the southern foot of Songshan Mountain in Zhongyue, there is a knife-like mountain named Dangyang Mountain. There are three abrupt stones on the mountainside, which people call "Erlang Stone" or "Zhuguo Stone". At the foot of the mountain is a vast expanse of yellow sand, and the locals call it "Big Desert".

according to legend, when Pangu opened the heavens and the earth, there were ten suns gushing out of the ground, the crops were burnt, the river was dried, the whole world was hotter than a steamer, and the people were in danger. There is a young man named Jiro. He is not only hardworking and brave, but also honest and honest. His strength is so great that he can lift several mountains. He has a pair of flying tiger shoes, which can cross mountains and seas and travel thousands of miles every day. The common people believed him and liked him, so they elected him as the leader of everyone.

Jiro cut down a thousand-year-old tree from a nearby mountain as a shoulder pole, put 12 mountains into two big baskets, put on flying tiger shoes, held the blue sky above his head, stepped on the earth, and carried the mountains to catch up with the sun. Every time he caught up with a sun, he pinned it down with a big mountain. Erlang Daishan drove the sun to Songshan Mountain, and he pinned a sun under Dangyang Mountain. Because of the heavy burden, no matter where he stepped on it, he left two lines of deep footprints. Up to now, there is still a big footprint stepped by Erlang God next to the valley under the smoky stone, and people call it "Erlang Stone Shoes".

When Erlang God carried two mountains to the Bohai Sea, he just caught up with the last sun that escaped. He immediately aimed at the sun and left Zushan and Dushan. The clever sun rolled on the ground, and wheeled into the Bohai Sea, which made Erlang God close his eyes again. As a result, the sun didn't hold down, but Zushan and Dushan fell on the Bohai Sea. The great round hole in Zushan, which Erlang God inserted with a big pole, became a hole mountain that penetrated the sky. The myth that Erlang carries mountains to catch the sun has been passed down from generation to generation.
