When he passed through Jingxian mountain, he saw that there was a king's spirit. He ordered 3000 Zheyi disciples to cut off the Dragon veins to defeat the king's spirit, so he changed his name to Dantu County.

There is a magnificent Beigu mountain in the northwest of Jingxian mountain. At that time, its back peak stretched into the river. The back peak, middle peak and front peak of Beigu mountain fluctuated continuously, and the front peak encircled the open Gaoping block. The ancients called the area around the front peak Beijing, which means "qiujuegao says Beijing" in Erya, and the mouth refers to the Jiangkou at the foot of Beigu mountain.
