When he came back, the queen mother took someone to see him off. As they passed by, they saw the beautiful scenery in the cloud gap, so they pressed down the cloud head and looked around. However, the ox fell down, sprained his right hoof and couldn't walk, so he stayed on the mountain all night. That night, the queen mother ordered the accompanying boy to raise a fire to prepare for cooking and entertain Lao Jun. Don't want that boy greedy to see the beauty of the world, forget himself, made a meal, the jar of oil and salt fell on the mountain, into a stone pit. The next day, when he left, he left his kitchen knife in Shangdong and turned it into today's bodaoling. Where qingniu looked up, a nipple turned into a milk stone, and a clear spring continuously flowed from the nipple. Now there is a small well beside the stone! The place where the queen mother raises a fire for cooking is still called Shenxian village. later, people built a Dongfeng temple in bodaoling to commemorate the old king and the queen mother and ask for God's blessing. The monks in the temple took water from the milk spring. In the oil and salt pot pit, there is a pile of white salt and fragrant oil. Although there is not much, it is only enough for monks in the temple to eat for one day, but it is inexhaustible. The first day they ate it, and the next day they produced salt for the day. Monks rely on the oil, salt and water to cook. Later, a greedy little monk wanted to get more oil and salt to sell for money, so he secretly carried an iron chisel to chisel the mouth of the pot without telling his master and elder martial brother.

Later, the oil and salt tank became the name of the mountain.
