The legend of Malshan

I was born in a remote mountain village. There are mountains right outside my door, but it is also close to the sea, so it can be considered a good place with mountains, sea and outstanding people.

There is a stone tablet at the entrance of the village with the words "Dongjiagou Village" written on it. There is only a small road into the village. After entering the village, heading south is the highest mountain in southeastern Shandong, "Ma'er Mountain". The scenery of Ma'er Mountain is also very beautiful, with lush trees and rich products. The villagers protect the mountain, and the mountain also gives back to the villagers. There are many legends circulating about Malshan Village, which are full of legendary color.

This was originally a plain. Later, a general passed by here after the war. He was seriously injured because the war had just ended. After lying on the horse's back all the way, the general finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell down. Soon he closed his eyes forever. However, his horse stayed beside his body and refused to leave, so its head turned into the Horse Mountain. The two boulders on the top of the mountain stand like two ears of a horse. Later, the ancestors surnamed Dong came here to build a village and named it Dongjiagou Village.

There is a cave in the middle of the boulders on the left ear of Ma'er Mountain. People in the village call it the "Fairy Cave". The cave is very deep and very dark inside, and no one knows where it leads. The elders in the village say that this hole leads to the East China Sea. The amazing thing is that the entrance of the cave is very narrow, but the inside is very wide. What's even more amazing is that the cave is full of oxygen and is not in a state of lack of oxygen.

There is a mountain spring halfway up the mountain. The spring water flows out from the middle of the rocks. A small stream of water flows continuously. The spring water is cold and sweet. No matter how dry the weather is, this spring will never dry up. People say that this spring water can cure diseases. Drinking the mountain spring water regularly can also make you healthy and live longer. Many people come here to drink the spring water.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the Red Army suffered serious casualties and retreated all the way to the village to confront the Japanese army head-on. In the end, in order to protect the villagers, they had to lead the villagers all the way to the mountains to evacuate. The mountain roads were complicated, and the Red Army was led by villagers, so they easily climbed all the way to the top of the mountain and hid in the fairy cave. But the Japanese army was lost in the mountains and forests. After a long search, everyone's hearts tightened as they saw the enemy getting closer and closer to the Immortal Cave. Because there is only one entrance to the Immortal Cave, once it is found, it is inevitable to have to fight.

At this most critical moment, the originally sunny weather suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and the dark clouds pressed on the top of the mountain, making it even harder to see the road ahead. The already chaotic mountain forest became even more confusing. Shortly after the dark clouds came, stone-like hail followed, smashing the Japanese troops to pieces and forcing them to retreat. This place is not a rainy and hail-prone area, not to mention this is not the hail season. In such a short period of time, the sun was shining brightly, and hail suddenly fell. People said that this was the immortal from the Immortal Cave protecting the villagers. Woolen cloth.

As a result, people are more in awe of Ma'er Mountain and Fairy Cave, because some coincidences are always magical.
