Historical evolution of Xiaohuangshan Scenic Area

It is said that in the early days, there were many mountain people with the four surnames of Lei, Lan, Zhong and Pan living on Fenghuang Mountain in Chaozhou, Guangdong. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and transportation and information were increasingly developed. There is a saying in central China that there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below, and it gradually spread to Fenghuang Mountain in Guangdong.

In the 31st year of Qianlong's reign, the three mountain residents of Lei, Lan and Zhong on Phoenix Mountain wanted to move their families to Suzhou and Hangzhou. In the autumn of that year, the three families brought enough food and daily necessities, picked an auspicious day, worshiped the Sanyuan God, and then set off from Shantou northward, passing through Fujian to Wenzhou, and then took a small boat to Lishui, intending to transfer to Xuanping. Then go north by land.

Because we were sailing against the current, it was already winter when we approached Xuanping County. The river froze overnight, and the boats of the three families were frozen. It snowed heavily, and the mountains on both sides were soon covered in heavy snow and turned white. This was a strange phenomenon for the three families who had lived in Guangdong for a long time. I don't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. Mountain residents from three families hurriedly burned incense and asked the Three Yuan True God to appear and bless them. Strange to say, that night everyone dreamed that the Three Yuan True God said to them: This place has four distinct seasons, no external disturbances, no natural disasters, and it is a geomantic treasure.

The next day, the three families disembarked from the boat and climbed to the top of the mountain. Everyone was stunned by the scenery in front of them: the terrain here resembled a lotus leaf, a lotus, and a bud, and the strange pines welcomed the guests. , strange rocks standing tall, waterfalls in the sea of ​​clouds, it is simply a beautiful picture. The three families named this place Heye Mountain and decided to settle here. Because there was not much food left, it was winter again, the cold wind was biting, and it was impossible to build a house. The three families lived in thatched huts built by local farmers in the fields, making this their home and making a living by hunting... Because of differences in language, clothing, beliefs, and living customs, the three families could not communicate with the locals, and the government ignored them and allowed them to reproduce on their own.

After that, the three families worked diligently and slowly developed from three to several, dozens, hundreds... and finally spread to the entire uninhabited mountainous area of ​​Xuanping County, but They have maintained their own customs.

In the early Jiaqing years of the Qing Dynasty, the Grand Master of Xuanping County saw that the number of mountain people from Fenghuang Mountain in Guangdong had reached a large scale, so he began to care for and control them, and personally went to the mountain to observe the people's sentiments. The county magistrate found that all the customs of these mountain people were completely different from those of the Han people. After returning, he reported the people's conditions to the court. The imperial court named them She according to the shape of the thatched cottage where they lived, and this is how the She people came into being.

To this day, this ancient village still completely preserves and continues the rich customs of the She people. The unique folk songs of the She people, weddings, funerals, etc., and the customs and characteristics of traditional festivals, such as clothing, beliefs, language, and living habits, still show the ancient traditions...
