Does your hometown have ancient and mysterious folklore?
I was born in Yilan County, Heilongjiang Province. It is a place that I will never forget and miss from time to time.
Yilan County covers an area of 38,000 square meters and is a provincial key cultural relic protection unit. It is bounded by the Mudanjiang River to the west, the Woken River Lahafu Mountain (commonly known as the West Mountain) and the Wokenhada Mountain (commonly known as the Dongshan) to the east. It is a barrier between the east and the west and is known as the "Gateway to the Songhua River". The city site is rectangular with a circumference of 2210 meters. The city walls are rammed and the remaining walls are 3 meters high. The Five Kingdoms City was built by the "Jurchens" who lived in the lower reaches of the Songhua River, Heilongjiang and Wusuli Rivers in the Liao Dynasty. It was composed of five tribes: Yueliji, Orilai, Ceali, Penuli and Yuelidu. It was known as the Five Tribes in history. The Ministry of State is also the famous Five Kingdoms Department in history. Yilan is Yueliji City, the first city of the Five Kingdoms. It is the city where the Five Kingdoms formed an alliance, so it is called Kunitoucheng. After the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty in 1127, Emperors Huizong and Qinzong were escorted back to the north. They arrived at Five Kingdoms City in July 1130 and were imprisoned in the city. In 1135 and 1156, the bones of the two emperors were buried here one after another, and the two emperors "sit in a well and look at the sky." "The story spread across the land of China. Let’s get to the point.
? It was one night when I was 12 years old. There was a power outage at home. At that time, push-button cell phones were popular. People did not have smart phones to kill time, so they had to gather together to chat. What I loved most at that time was listening to my grandfather telling me stories about the past. To be honest, I still like the time before there were smart phones. It was really lively and happy. To say the least..., I was bored, so I pestered my grandpa to tell me stories about the past. Grandpa also Don't mind me being annoying, he clicked his pipe and spoke slowly, and I followed the green smoke that grandpa exhaled into this world full of mystery.
? Located due east of Yilan City, next to the Woken River, there is a rolling hill. From a distance, it looks like a giant dragon lying there. The locals call it Wolong Mountain The shape of the top of the mountain is very much like a chair. The elders say this is called a chair circle, and it is a geomantic treasure. The story of the husband's grave that has been passed down for hundreds of years happened here. ↓
? A long time ago, the Japanese In a small village called Lama Hong on the west bank of the Ken River, there lived a well-known Feng Shui master named Li Mingzhong. It is said that Li Zhong once served as an eunuch in the palace when he was in his hometown in Guanli, so people used to call him He is Husband Li. Husband Li adopted an adopted son and an adopted daughter, and the three of them depended on each other. In the blink of an eye, the children grew up, and Husband Li married wives and son-in-laws for them respectively. Their wives were virtuous and their sons were filial. There was no need to worry about family matters. He would go out early and come back late, wandering around the hills on the east bank of the river. No one else knew what he was doing. Several years passed by, and husband Li's health was failing. One day, he called his son to the bedside and said with difficulty: "My son, I I couldn't survive tonight. I was buried three days after my death. I was not allowed to wear a single piece of cloth when I was buried in the coffin. I had chosen the cemetery early and was buried in a circle of chairs on the top of the mountain in the east of Hedong. Within a hundred days after my death, Don't be afraid if anything happens at home. Do as I say, absolutely." That night, husband Li passed away. His son and daughter-in-law burst into tears. According to their father's instructions, the old man was not given clothes when he was buried. Husband Li's coffin stayed at home for three days. When it was time to raise the coffin for burial, his daughter who was married out of town came crying. She knelt in front of the coffin and cried her heart out. She wanted to take a last look at her adoptive father, and people opened the coffin lid for her. .When she saw her father lying naked in the coffin, she immediately fell out with her brother and sister-in-law. No matter how her brother tried to explain it, she couldn't. Her brother couldn't get rid of her sister, so she had to let her sister put on a pair of trousers for her father. The whole family was crying. With their help, Mr. Li was buried in the field he had chosen during his lifetime. Strangely enough, after Mr. Li was buried, the big black dog that his family had raised for many years suddenly jumped up to the roof and headed in the direction of Mr. Li’s grave. It kept barking day and night and couldn't be chased away no matter how many days passed. The whole village made the Li family's black dog cause trouble. The elderly people secretly said that this was not a good thing. It was a sign that a black dog would come to the house and the family would be ruined. The words reached the ears of Mr. Li’s son. At first, he could hold on to his anger, but he couldn’t stand it anymore. The more people talked about it, the more he said it. But he couldn’t stand it any longer, so he gritted his teeth and beat the black dog to death.
Let’s talk about it in two parts. Since the death of Mr. Li, the old emperor in the capital has been frightened and has nightmares at night. At this time, the Qintian Supervisor was watching the stars at night and found a star rising in the sky in the north. The big star sometimes disappeared and appeared, but because it was covered by a dark cloud, it was impossible to determine its exact position. He hurriedly reported the message to the emperor, who was shocked when he heard it: the appearance of a new star is clearly a real dragon coming down to earth to capture the star. His kingdom was great! He urgently ordered Qin Tianjian to guard the star observatory to find out where the new stars came from. Qin Tianjian did not dare to violate the rules and kept observing every night. After a few days, he discovered a new star in the sky above the north. The dark cloud dissipated, and it was finally detected that the real dragon came from Sanxing City in the north. The emperor urgently ordered Qin Tianjian as the imperial envoy, and led 3,000 royal guards to rush to Sanxing City. The deputy commanders of Sanxing knelt down to receive him, and the imperial envoy After explaining the purpose of their visit, the three deputy governors replied: "I don't know what happened to the dragons in the area under my jurisdiction, but I heard that there is a family named Li in the east of the city. They have a new grave buried at the bend of the mountain around the chair circle. There is a black dog in their family day and night." He screamed wildly on the roof for more than a month, and was beaten to death by the owner. Could this matter be related to what you are investigating? The imperial envoy asked Mr. Li in detail about the time and place of his burial, and then he pointed. He was shocked and said, "That's the man!" He quickly led the imperial guards to Li's grave and ordered the sergeants to dig the grave and open the coffin. However, they found that the coffin was empty and there was no body. There was a big hole as thick as a bucket, extending in the direction of the Woken River. The imperial envoy ordered the imperial guards to line up and dig hard. After digging for a whole day, they finally found it more than 20 steps away from the river. They saw that husband Li's body had turned into a dragon shape, more than three feet long, and was covered with overgrowth. The golden scales were as big as the mouth of a bowl, and a pair of cyan trousers faded to the ankles, and the shape of the human body was still maintained below the calves. The imperial envoy burned Gaotian's yellow watch, and then ordered the executioner to chop off the dragon's head with the Shang Fang sword given by the emperor. The officers and soldiers rushed forward, Wan Ren cut the body into pieces and set it on fire. The imperial envoy wrapped the dragon's head in red silk and led his army back to Beijing to resume his duties. One of them was about to call the wind.
The blue dragon in the rain just died by the river.
Later generations lamented this in a poem:
A dragon vein spreads across the east of the city
It attracted Qianlong and Liu Yong
A hundred years of good stories continue to be passed down
The three surnames have gained fame from this
When will the auspiciousness reappear
Ze was revitalized early
Thousands of households and thousands of villages take off
Fang Xian’s magical power of creation
