Legend of dragon and Phoenix Valley in Wuyishan

Monoclonius

There is another folk legend in Longfeng Valley: Once upon a time, there lived a one Horned Dragon in wolongtan, Jiuqu River, Wuyishan. It was very fierce and cruel. It often turned into a beautiful man and broke into a house in the middle of the night. This one Horned Dragon turned out to be the youngest son of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. He was very ugly, but he especially liked to look for flowers and willows. Some beautiful fish girls and shrimp girls of the Shui nationality were scared to death when they saw him. Later, he felt that there was no girl he liked among the Shui people. Every day, I went to several villages near the upper reaches of Jiuqu River and became a white faced scholar, teasing girls everywhere. One day, when he passed by the place called shibazhai, he saw a steamed bun shop. He thought it was a good place, so he went into the shop to have a rest and bought some buns to fill his stomach. This steamed bun shop is run by a widow surnamed Li. Widow Li is in her thirties. She has no parents in law and no children. She lives by selling steamed buns. Seeing that she was very beautiful, the one Horned Dragon found a cave in the west of Shiba village. During the day, he went to the cave and had a good sleep. In the evening, he came to the shop to buy steamed buns. While eating steamed buns, he talked to widow Li. In the face of the threat of the unicorn, widow Li dare to be angry and dare not speak. Later, as widow Li grew older and weaker, the unicorn began to ignore her and look for new lovers everywhere.

Peacock girl

Once, a girl named peacock passed by eighteen villages. This girl has learned a lot of martial arts. She wanders around the world, and she is expert in chivalrous affairs. After walking all day, she was tired and hungry, so she went into the shop to buy steamed buns to satisfy her hunger. It happened that the unicorn was also in the store. The one Horned Dragon saw that the peacock was young and beautiful, and its saliva was three feet long. As the second mock exam, he changed into a kind of merciful shop assistant, and sent a reeky steamed buns to the widow, secretly putting a packet of sweat pills into the stuffed buns. The peacock is so hungry that it just eats. In the blink of an eye, it eats all the steamed buns, but it also sleeps. The one Horned Dragon was very happy, picked up the peacock and left. Not far from the stockade, the one Horned Dragon showed his true colors, beamed a cool breeze at the peacock, and cried: "girl, wake up, girl!" the peacock yawned, opened his eyes and looked around. There was a black monster standing in front of him. Knowing that he had suffered a loss, he asked harshly, "what are you? How dare you make fun of me Seeing that the girl woke up, the one Horned Dragon came forward and said, "don't be afraid, girl. I'm the seventh Prince of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. You and I are better than each other in this life. When you enter my cave, you will enjoy endless splendor and wealth Peacock, after all, is a female Xia who has been through the world. After hearing this monster's words, she is scared in her heart, but calm on the surface.

She thought that since she was in the devil's hands, it was impossible to get away at once. Although I have learned martial arts, I have a gold dart from my ancestor. However, the monster was covered with iron scales and armor, and it was hard for the gold dart to break its flesh. Now we have to wait for the opportunity to subdue the dragon. So he said to the one Horned Dragon: "Dragon Lord, Dragon Lord, you are a dragon fairy, I am a mortal, how can I get married? If the old dragon king knows that you have violated the rules of the Dragon Palace, won't it hurt you? " On hearing this, the one Horned Dragon said angrily, "the seven fairies in the sky are not afraid to violate the rules of heaven and dare to marry mortal Dong Yong. Can't the seventh Prince of dragon marry a mortal woman?" Peacock said: "Dragon Lord, Dragon Lord, it's a pity that he's wearing iron scales and armor all over his body. He doesn't have any skin. It's hard to get married." Hearing this, the unicorn danced happily and said, "what's the difficulty? As long as I take off the three dragon scales under my throat, I can become a beautiful man with ordinary body. I sent you steamed buns in the steamed buns shop just now. Haven't you seen them? " "Oh, did you change the waiter who sent the steamed stuffed buns just now? It's pretty handsome. " Then the peacock said in a sweet voice, "Lord dragon! Do you really have that ability? I still don't believe it: there's no evidence for words, there's no evidence for seeing. You've got real skills. Let me see what you've got! " The one Horned Dragon raised its claws and took off the three scales at the bottom of its throat. The peacock saw that the unicorn was not wary of himself. When he stretched his head and neck to remove the dragon's scales, the peacock flew out a gold dart and hit the seven inch throat of the unicorn. When the unicorn roars, the peacock pulls out its sword and cuts off the unicorn's head. After all, the dragon is a God. It's not so easy to die. Although the dragon's head is different, it still can't die. As long as the body and head can be connected in 7749 days, it can be revived. Although the one Horned Dragon has no head and can't see, it can also call the wind and rain and cast its magic. All of a sudden, the sand is flying away, the sky is dim and the earth is shaking. After all, the peacock is a mortal, where can withstand such a toss, after death into a curtain of water, that is, now the peacock waterfall, is still so beautiful and smart. This incident also shocked the heaven. The jade emperor called the God in charge of mountain, sea, lake, forest and stone to Wuyi Mountain.

Turn the body of the unicorn Dragon into the opposite Qinglong mountain. In order to prevent the unicorn from grabbing the dragon's head. The God of heaven also ordered the Phoenix to stay here, which is now the Danfeng waterfall. Once the unicorn appears, the Phoenix will be reborn to prevent the dragon from grabbing the dragon's head. And the God dipped ink in the inkstone pool downstream of the waterfall. With a wave of magic pen, he wrote quickly on the cliff opposite Danfeng waterfall. then
