Mount sanshen

Sanshen mountain is the mountain where immortals live in the East China Sea. There are five mountains on the sea: Daiyu, Yuanqiao, fanghu, Yingzhou and Penglai.

According to the historical records of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, Xu Shi, a member of the Qi Dynasty, wrote that there are three God mountains in the sea, named Penglai, abbot and Yingzhou, where immortals live

myth

According to the ancient legend, when the fish loaded the mountains or the earth, the movement of the fish would lead to earthquakes, vicissitudes of life and changes of mountains and rivers. In the myth, there are five sacred mountains in the east of Bohai Sea under the rule of emperor Tiandi. But the roots of the five sacred mountains are not connected. They often move up and down with the tide, and they are not stable for a moment. The gods and saints hated it, so they reported it to the emperor. "Emperor" (the title has been seen in the literature as early as the Yin Dynasty) was afraid that the holy mountain would move to the "West pole" and break the existing balance of the universe. In order to make the residents of Shenshan lose their homes, Yuqiang, the God of Beihai, was sent to drive 15 giant AOS to be divided into five groups. They lived on the Shenshan for 60000 years, so that the five sacred mountains began to stabilize and no longer flow. However, there was a giant in longbozhi. After a few steps, he reached the place where the five sacred mountains were, and caught six giant AOS with one hook As a result, "Daiyu" and "Yuanqiao" lost their giant AOS and drifted to the north pole and sank into the vast ocean. From then on, there were only three sacred mountains left. In the book of songs of Chu, Tian Wen asks, "why should I be safe when I am in the mountains?". In the biography of the immortals, there is also a saying that "the Ao of the giant spirit carries the mountain of Penglai and dances in the sea".

The idea of immortality came into being on weekends and prevailed in the Warring States period. During the Warring States period, many legends about immortals and the realm of immortals have been widely spread among the people. Among them, the fairy mountain in the East China Sea and Kunlun Mountain are the most magical and widely spread, which become the origin of the two major myth systems in China.

There are five mountains on the sea: Daiyu, Yuanqiao, fanghu, Yingzhou and Penglai. According to Lie Zi Tang Wen, "the mountain is 30000 Li high and low, the top is 9000 Li flat, and the middle phase of the mountain is 70000 li away. I think it's a neighbor.". The view on the stage is all gold and jade, and the animals on it are all pure chimera. Zhu Gan's tree nodes are thick and thick, and Hua Shi has its own taste, and the food is not old and does not die. All the people who live there are the seeds of immortals and saints. There are countless people who come and go with each other day and night. The roots of the five mountains have nothing to do with them, and they often travel up and down with the tide. In the end, the two mountains drifted away, leaving only fanghu (Abbot), Yingzhou and Penglai.
