It is about ten li long and has a long mountain shape. From the hillside to the foot of the mountain, it has many small arms like a centipede (commonly known as Baizu), so it is called Baizu mountain.

The origin of the name

There is a folk saying about the scenery of our city: "how long is Baizu mountain! The height of Liang Jinshan! Chop the bamboo in Magang, fish the carp in Longtang, and "suddenly drop" one, and "row down" one... "These lines outline some of our county's characteristic poems, which have been popular among people. Baizu mountain is located on the South Bank of the middle reaches of the Tanjiang River. From baizutou to baizuwei, it runs through the west of the south of the Yangtze River in Chikan town and reaches sanguima Jianglong in Baihe Town. It is about ten li long and is named Baizu mountain because of its long mountain shape. From the hillside to the foot of the mountain, it has many small arms like a centipede (commonly known as Baizu). It is said that before the Song Dynasty, there was still a vast sea around Baizu mountain. A family surnamed Wen in Jiangxi Province asked Lai Buyi, a surveyor, to look for a good cemetery. When Lai Buyi found a "dragon vein" in the mountains of Jiangxi Province, he asked the Wen family to hire a boat to carry the remains of his ancestors. He began to search for "dragon" and "acupoint" and went all the way to a low place in the middle of Baizu mountain in Kaiping City, Guangdong Province. He thought that this place was from Jiangxi Province This "cave" was chosen to bury the remains of Wen's ancestors. Before burial, it is necessary to find out whether there are "living feet" (centipedes) or "dead feet" so that they can be buried in different ways. A servant is asked to go to baizuwei and ask him to see if the mountain moves at noon. The servant thought, how can a long mountain move? But the master ordered him to go to baizuwei. Lai Buyi and the Wen family went to baizutou and said, "if I kill with an iron stick, baizuzhi knows that if I move, I will live. If I don't move, I will die.". When it was noon, raibuyi used an iron bar to kill baizutoulang. It was late, but it was fast. Baizutou was hurt by the killing and put his tail around. The servant standing at the hundred foot tail, because the hundred foot tail swayed so much that he couldn't stand firmly, turned over and fell into the water. He struggled to get ashore, his clothes soaked through. He filled his stomach with water and complained that raibuyi was deliberately playing with him. He was very angry and went back from the old road. Lai Buyi and the literati also came back from baizutou and met him in the cemetery. Because at noon, the sun was shining, and the journey was so far away, when we met, the servant's wet clothes were already dry. "What's going on?" raibuyi asked The angry servant said angrily, "I didn't move.". Later, Lai Buyi took "shengbaizu" as the burial method of "diebaizu". Since Wen buried the remains of his ancestors, the original Baishan stone in Baizu mountain has gradually turned black. From a distance, it looks like swarms of flies and ants gathering under a dead Baizu's body to sip. It is said that the burial of the bones is the ancestor of Wen Tianxiang, a national hero in the late Song Dynasty. It is said that it was "born with feet". If it was buried with "born with feet", Wen Tianxiang could defeat yuan soldiers. However, Wen Tianxiang was defeated and killed because of the burial of "living feet" as "dead feet". Later, people simply called this tomb Wen Tianxiang tomb, which still exists today. Of course, this is nonsense, but it has been handed down as a legend.

Legend of Baizu mountain

There are various legends about Baizu mountain, which are quite interesting. One, ear stick hillside ground, can hear Lily south bank "pound rice" sound. Baizu mountain is long and high with Tanjiang River in the north. The Tanjiang River is like a belt, and Chikan town is like a pearl beside the river. The scenery is very attractive, which attracts many tourists, especially the Double Ninth Festival. The red men and green women, young and old, and the mountaineers are like ants. Climbers only need to lie on their sides. When you listen to the mountain, you can hear the sounds of "Dong Dong" and "pounding rice" from Sangui and majianlong farmers several miles away. The sound is clear and crisp, so it is a strange talk. However, this may be the geographical reason for the sound transmission of the rocks in the mountains. 2. The tomb of Wen Tianxiang. It is said that there is a tomb of Wen Tianxiang in Baizu mountain. In a low place in the middle of Baizu mountain, there is a mound of earth, overgrown with weeds, which is not eye-catching. In front of the mound, there is a stone slab engraved with the word "Wenshan worship table". It is said that it is "Wen Tianxiang's tomb", and it is also said that it is "Wen Tianxiang's tomb". This kind of legend has a long history. There was a scholar in Chikan, Kaiping, who invited two or three scholars to visit Qixingyan in Zhaoqing. They were attracted by the beautiful scenery of Qixingyan, and they never forget to go back. When they were enjoying the tour, they met a scholar in Zhaoqing. After they had said hello, they talked about the scenery here. Zhaoqing scholar said that he had a couplet of the second couplet, others and himself can not think of the first couplet, the second couplet is: "Seven Star Rock mouth stone for teeth", hope Kaiping scholar Yucheng. At that time, Kaiping scholar and Shizi were not satisfied with either the part of speech or the tone. It was almost dusk when Kaiping scholar said goodbye with shame on his face. When he returned to the hostel, he thought hard and couldn't get a good sentence. So he didn't close his eyes all night and went to "Java" during the day. At dawn, they all returned to Chikan. When the scholar returned home, he was unhappy. His wife thought he was ill, but he said no. his mother was tired of him, and he said no. For several days, however, his mother thought he was evil and asked the wizard to rescue him. He just said, "don't worry about anything! On the morning of the fourth day, the scholar leaned against the door and gazed at the blue sky. Suddenly, he cheered: "yes! There it is Frightened, his mother and wife rushed out of the room, thinking that something was happening to him. However, the scholar was overjoyed and said, "hundred foot mountain cloud as a hat, hundred foot mountain cloud as a hat, right, right.". It turned out that the scholar's family was facing Baizu mountain across the river. It rained heavily in the evening. In the morning, it cleared up after the rain. The mountain water and air rose and gathered into white clouds, covering the top of Baizu mountain, just like a big white hat on the top of Baizu mountain. The scholar caught this rare moment and was inspired. So he became a popular couplet: the Seven Star Rock mouth stone is the fourth tooth on the top of Baizu mountain, and there is a "lock Niang room" (the bride is called "lock Niang" by the local people). "Suonangfang" is located at the foot of a mountain to the east of the middle part of Baizu mountain. Although it has never been "on the top of the mountain", it can also be regarded as a higher place. The mountain peak is high and there are many huge stones. Among them, there are several extra large and relatively smooth stones. The natural barrier has become a stone chamber. There is a stone bed in the chamber, and there is a big stone block outside the door, which is like a curtain. People with its appearance "boudoir" deep, elegant smooth, just like a bridal chamber, therefore, baizushan has a "lock Niang room" spread. Those who visit Baizu mountain enjoy seeing the wonderful scenery in Suo Niang room. In the history of the 1920s, "Suo Niang Fang" once had a brilliant page in the activities of local Party organizations in Kaiping county. At that time, there was a party branch among the workers and one among the young teachers and students in our county. In October 1928, the higher authorities instructed all the party members to hold a general meeting. The provincial Party committee sent Comrade Wu Bingtai, Secretary of the Provincial Youth League Committee, to convey the instructions of the provincial Party committee, thoroughly criticized Right opportunism and "left" blind activism, purified the party's team, absorbed new forces, and "unified the leading body, established the Central Committee" Kaiping special branch. After several discussions, we finally chose the natural stone chamber of baizushan - "Suo Niang room". On the same day, the participants dressed up as tourists and climbed the mountain from different directions to cover the eyes and ears of the enemy. This period of history is the glory of our county's party and people, and also the pride of baizushan's "suonangfang".
