Folk stories related to bridges

It is said that the pavilion was built on an ancient stone bridge. It snowed in winter, and the snow and ice on the sunny side of the bridge melted, while the silver shop on the shady side of the bridge was still made of jade. Since Geling, bridges and dikes have been broken, hence the name "Broken Snow". Another legend is that the white snake and Xu Xian met at the broken bridge, which adds romance to the scenery of the broken bridge.

2. Naihe Bridge

There are two popular sayings about Naihe Bridge. It is said that there is a river in the underworld called Naihe, and it is said that it means "helplessness" in Chinese, which just corresponds to the regret and helplessness when people are reincarnated.

Naiheqiao is a place where people are reincarnated in China Taoism and China folk mythology. There will be an elderly goddess named Meng Po, who will give each ghost a bowl of Mengpo soup to forget the memory of past lives, so as to be reborn in the next life.

3. Zhao Zhouqiao

Zhao Zhouqiao was built in Sui Dynasty, designed and built by famous craftsman Li Chun, about 1400 years ago. It is the earliest and best preserved ancient open-shouldered stone arch bridge. The most complete preserved ancient single-hole open-shouldered stone arch bridge.

According to legend, Lu Ban traveled around the world through Zhaozhou, and met the Weihe River to block the way, so with the help of God, he created it overnight. The fairy Zhang and Prince Chai of Penglai Fairy Island came to find out. They used magic to try to make the bridge collapse, but Lu Ban tried to force Zhao Zhouqiao with his bare hands.

4. Tianxian Bridge

At the junction of Dayang and Qinghua in Hexi area of Lanping County, there is a small river called "Fish Afraid of River", and there is a stone arch bridge on the river called Tianxian Bridge. There are dozens of miles of deep valleys under the bridge, and the rocks at the bridge head are rugged, which makes people feel creepy. Legend has it that a fairy rescued a pair of lovers on this bridge.

At Chibuzhai at the foot of Dayang Mountain, there is a Pumi boy named Wenbu. This man is intelligent and sincere by nature. It's a pity that Dad died early, leaving only his elderly and frail grandmother. Both mother and son live in poverty, but Wenbu is very filial to her and both mother and son are very happy.

5. Wolong Bridge

In the northwest of Banquan Town, there are six miles away, and in the southeast of Tenant Village, there are two simple red stone bridges, which are called "Wolong Bridge". In the middle of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a consort, monopolized the power, poisoned the little emperor, and helped a two-year-old boy become a prince, so he became the acting emperor himself. If you feel dissatisfied, you will abolish the prince, become a real emperor, change the country name to "Xin", and the capital is still in Chang' an.

Under the guise of retro reform, he ordered political reform, which was intensified because of political corruption, coupled with years of natural disasters and complaints, which drove the people to nowhere and led to uprisings in various places. At this time, Liu Xiu, a strongman in Chunling Township, Nanyang County, organized an uprising by using his own people, public guests and villages. He attacked the city and plundered the land everywhere under the banner of "Zhongxing Han Shi", but it was a pity that he was surrounded by Wang Mang's army.

Liu Xiu rushed out of the encirclement with twelve soldiers to move reinforcements. The headstrong soldiers followed, and the armed soldiers split into two roads, and fought and fled. The more the headstrong soldiers chase, the more the warriors fight, and the less they can't hold back. Liu Xiu was alone, beating Ma Rufei and running for several days and nights. The horse was sweating and panting, and he screamed. He tripped over a stone while running and couldn't get up again.

Liu Xiu got up quickly and continued to flee to the southeast. I don't know how long it has been running. Liu Xiu was sweating all over, and her limbs were weak. She can't move her feet anymore. When she saw a stone bridge, she just sat on it and thought? : Didn't the pursuers die in vain?

We need a place to hide. I want to get to the bottom of the bridge, but I think something is wrong. I saw a small dirt well on the south side of the west end of the bridge, with some wormwood growing on the side. This is a good place to hide. He didn't get up several times, so he climbed to the well and slipped into the ground. Fortunately, it is an abandoned well, not deep, and there is some wet soil under it. His back was against the wall of the well and his legs were spread out. He only felt weak and soon fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I think something woke him up around his neck. Liu Xiu reached out and touched him. Seeing that it was a mole, I was so angry that I tore it in half. When I finally climbed up from the well, it was already sunset. Seeing a farmer sitting on the bridge to rest and smoke, Liu Xiu hurried forward to salute: "Excuse me, grandpa, where is this?" A: "Yizhou Dongxiang Tenant Village."

Ask again? : "Can there be men in the past?" Answer again? : "It's still noon, there will be some soldiers with knives and guns, which have passed." Liu Xiu sighed? : "Thank God, the sky can't kill Liu."

Liu Xiu went back to the dirt well to see if there was anything left there. There are only two grubs, nothing else. On closer inspection, it seems that his paws are still moving, and he feels indebted. Fortunately, he was awakened by the food, otherwise he would have missed this step.

He quickly broke off a twig from a willow tree by the well and put it on the mole's head and on the mole. It became a complete mole and was thrown on the wet soil. Strangely, it soon came back to life and got into the soil.

Since then, the mole's body has become two pieces. I can't believe you ripped off the mole's head, and there were willow branches in it. The willows by the well are bitter. When the emperor broke its branches to stop it from growing, it was full of gas. These gases attack the trunk and grow into large tumors. Take a good look at those old willows now. They all have big tree tumors, and that's when they are angry.

At this time, Liu Xiu had enough sleep and spirit, and immediately moved into reinforcements to solve the danger of soldiers being trapped. After that, they won one after another, taking Chang 'an, killing Wang Mang and taking the world. This is "Prosperity for the Eastern Han Dynasty". As for Wolong Bridge, it was buried under the soil during the land preparation during the Great Leap Forward, but its beautiful legend is still widely circulated.
