In the past, the snow water flowing down from the Qilian Mountains continuously merged into the Beida River, which passed through the wasteland in the middle of the Hexi Corridor, irrigating the fertile fields in that area and nurturing the people of all ethnic groups there.
One day, a shepherd boy was herding sheep in the wilderness. He met a strange old man carrying a bag of gravel and sand. He asked him how to get to the Beida River. He said, "This Beida River was originally my home, but it was robbed by a group of people."
Go, I'm going to use gravel and sand to block the Beida River this time." The shepherd boy was very angry after hearing this, and immediately contradicted him: "Don't say that you just used a bag of gravel and sand to change the course of the Beida River.
"The old man was furious when he heard this, and immediately moved the bag of gravel and sand to the left and right. Suddenly, many hills and a large mountain protruded from the wasteland. This large mountain is now Jiayu Mountain.
It turned out that this strange old man was transformed into a turtle spirit. He was chanting a spell and trying to knock down the Jiayu Mountain to block the Beida River. At this moment, there was a sudden strong wind, lightning and thunder, and the Jade Emperor sent the God of Thunder to kill the old man.
.
Immediately where he died, a hill rose up, shaped like a turtle. This is now "Guigai Mountain".
To the south of Qinglong Bridge and north of Juyongguan near the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing, there is a place called "Wuguitou", which is described as extremely dangerous. It can be said that "one man can guard the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it". It is one of the seventy-two scenic spots in Guangou.
It was originally called "Luan Bei Gou". Legend has it that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, swept north and led hundreds of thousands of troops. He was invincible along the way. However, after passing Juyong Pass, he was stopped at the "Luan Chai Gou" pass. The Ming army surrendered for a long time.
The cost was high and even after dozens of days of attacking, King Yan was very angry.
When he was at his wits' end, someone suggested: "There are five brothers of the Huo family nearby, Ren, Yi, Li, Zhi, and Xin, who were small leaders in the Yuan Dynasty and had the unique skill of firing artillery. They can be invited to help." Soon,
King Yan then hired the five brothers of the Fire clan, Taishan, to serve him with great courtesy.
A few days later, the Fire brothers brought cannons and gunpowder to the front of the battle formation. They took a good look at the terrain and aimed at the target.
The five brothers of the Fire Clan were worthy of being expert artillerymen. Cannonballs flew towards the Yuan army's position, and every shot was fired without missing a beat. In just a short time, the iron wall of defense was destroyed by the artillery one by one. The Yuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining
Abandoned the pass and fled.
King Yan led his army to pursue the victory and successfully occupied the "Lanchaigou" pass.
The five brothers of the Fire clan achieved military exploits, but they only gained short-lived glory.
Later, when King Yan became the emperor, he was uncharacteristically worried about the five brothers of the Huo family, thinking that they were really unreliable. If they changed their minds and rebelled, and aimed their cannons at me, King Yan, wouldn't the world I conquered be taken away by them?
Therefore, they decided to eradicate them, and framed them as "spies" and wanted to commit treason and other unfounded charges. They were arrested and beheaded all, and five heads were hung in Luanchaigou for public display.
This move aroused the indignation of the people, accusing King Yan of being lawless and ungrateful.
This voice of resentment soon reached the ears of the King of Yan. The King of Yan was deeply afraid of the people's rebellion, so in order to win over the people, he named the five brothers of the Fire family the "Five Ghost Gods of Wealth" and established them west of the Guangou Stone Buddha Temple.
Visit the "Five Ghosts Temple of Wealth" to enjoy the incense from generation to generation.
"Five Ghost Heads" got its name from this. Later generations thought that the word "Ghost" was unlucky, so they changed it to "Wu Guitou". Today, you can still see the carved words on the rock wall at the entrance of the old Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway Cave.
"Wuguitou" has three big characters.
Author: ~~Longying~~ Release date: 2005-3-31 After Qin Shihuang unified China, he recruited hundreds of thousands of people to connect and repair the northern city walls of Qin, Yan, and Zhao into one in 214 BC.
It is the world-famous Great Wall.
The legend that Meng Jiangnu traveled thousands of miles to find her husband and gave her cold clothes, and cried down the Great Wall for 800 miles, happened at that time.
In ancient times, Old Man Meng and Old Man Jiang were neighbors, separated only by a wall.
One spring, Old Man Meng planted a gourd seed in his yard. After careful cultivation by watering and fertilizing, the gourd seed grew tall and fat. It climbed over the wall and formed a large gourd seed in Old Man Jiang's yard.
The gourd weighs dozens of kilograms.
When the gourd was ripe, Old Man Jiang took a knife to cut it open. Suddenly he saw a white, fat, and very cute girl lying inside. Old Man Jiang looked out with joy and ran to tell others. After hearing about it, the villagers came to watch one after another.
This was new, but the two old men Meng and Jiang had conflicts because of it, and they had a heated argument.
Old Man Meng said very firmly: "I planted this gourd myself, and the fat girl should be mine."
