Section 2 Longtan Bay - connecting the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea

[Narrator] Chang'e, the new deputy director of the General Office of the Standing Committee of the Heavenly Court and the 'special assistant' of the Queen Mother, according to the will of the Queen Mother, took the opportunity of her honeymoon vacation to the Xihai Dragon Palace to prepare for the XQ 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference jointly organized by the Heavenly Court and the Buddha Realm, and came to the office of the Buddha in the Leiyin Treasure Temple of Tianzhu Lingshan. If the Buddha arranged for Guanyin Bodhisattva to go to the Dragon Palace of the West Sea to prepare for the XQ 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference jointly held by Heaven and the Buddha World! The Queen Mother and the Buddha discussed and decided that the theme of this year's 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference was "eugenics". The Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva will give lectures on "eugenics". The theme of the next "Elite on Buddhist Sutras" conference is "Environment and Survival", and the Queen Mother, Marshal Yulong, Chang'e Meishen and other keynote speeches! When the Buddha met with Chang'e, the deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Heavenly Court and the special assistant to the Queen Mother, he gave (arranged) the work to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and wanted to tell his proud disciples and the "proud protΓ©gΓ©s" of the Queen Mother in advance about the theme of the speech at the "Elite on Buddhist Sutras" conference. Therefore, in the office, the Buddha asked Chang'e and Guanyin Bodhisattva to use Chang'e's newlywed husband - Yulong's parents "free love, distant relatives marriage, eugenics" to create a "unique in the world, both civil and military, physical, and outstanding" outstanding young man - Yulong's typical god (human) character, expounding on the ancestors of the dragon clan to implement the guiding ideology of "eugenics" and reform the bad habit of "close relatives marriage". Promote "tribal (international) marriages." Implement a series of "eugenics" policies such as "planning and planning for childbirth". It has accelerated the evolution of the "dragon race" to the "high-intelligence race" (advanced animals - humans)!

"Since the first 'Moon Appreciation Sutra' conference, the Bodhisattva has participated in and organized the X session of the 'Elite Sutra' conference. This year's 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference held in Xihai, China, the Buddhist world is still organized by you! The Queen Mother and I have spoken through the words, and this year the Heavenly Court will send Chang'e to participate in the preparations for this conference! Chang'e's current public position is 'Deputy Director of the Office of the Heavenly Court Commander', and her part-time position is the "special assistant" of the Queen Mother! The two of you should work together well and strive to make this 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference better than the previous ones! "The Buddha said with a 'solemn face'!

"Buddha, what is the theme of this year's 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference?" Chang'e still made a sweet mezzo-soprano.

"The theme of this year's 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference is: eugenics!" The Buddha said with a 'solemn face'!

"Buddha, you once said. My marriage is also destined! This time, I went down to earth for my honeymoon vacation, and I became a mortal from a god, and the time was legally within 30 days! During the period when Jade Dragon and I were transformed into mortals, could we live a 'kind of feeling' married life like mortals? "Chang'e is still a sweet mezzo-soprano.

"Whether it's Buddha's fate, or divine fate, or marriage, Buddhism pays attention to 'casual fate'! Change with fate, be born with fate, and transcend with fate. Your husband Yulong is a practitioner of the perfect combination of 'variables' and 'fixed numbers'! The Jade Dragon has experienced many cycles of life and death! These bodhisattvas know best! When you and the Bodhisattva are preparing for the 'Elite Sutra on Buddhist Sutras' meeting between the Buddha Realm and the Heavenly Court, you have time to ask her for advice! "The Buddha said with kindness and a smile.

"Thank you Buddha for enlightening." Chang'e still made a sweet mezzo-soprano.

"'Envoy of the Beauty God', your husband Jun Yulong's parents were the most handsome guys and beautiful girls in the dragon clan when they were young. It is because of the union of the two of them. Only then did he give birth to a new generation of dragons, and his outstanding figure and wisdom are unparalleled in the world - Jade Dragon! This is the most successful example of eugenics and eugenics in the world! For the fate of Yulong's parents and parents, the Buddha knew more auspiciously. The Buddha is happy today. You can tell your disciples about the fate of Yulong's biological parents! Avalokiteshvara said with a smile on his face.

"Alright! Yulong is now the marshal of the Heavenly Court Sailor and Chang'e's wishful husband, he is really a model of 'eugenics' in the world! This is also the main reason why the Queen Mother and I decided on the theme of this year's 'Elite on Buddhist Sutras' conference. "The Buddha was kind and smiling, and told Guanyin Bodhisattva and Chang'e about the fate of Yulong's parents when they were young、、、、、、

[Narrator] In the long, long era when Pangu opened the world, the sea area of China was divided into four seas: southeast, south, northwest, and northwest, which are now the East China Sea, the South China Sea, the West (Bo) Sea, and the North (Yellow) Sea. Among the four seas, only the West (Bohai) Sea is China's inland sea. That is to say, the West (Bohai) Sea is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one of the waterfronts is adjacent to the North (Yellow) Sea. When you stand on the old iron mountain head of Lushunkou in Dalian, facing the direction of Penglai in Shandong Province, the boundary between the sea water of the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea is distinct, they repel each other, forming a zigzag wavy line, just step under your feet, quickly stretch into the distance! It gives you the feeling that your left foot has stepped into the North (Yellow) Sea; The right foot stepped into the West (Bohai) Sea. It is the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea, which is a clear boundary between the sea and the water, in the closed era ruled by which tribe, it has become an "iron wall" for young men and women of the Dragon tribe to love each other but cannot get married. Yulong's parents were the sons and princesses of the Dragon King who ruled the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea when they were young. Yulong's father is the eldest son of Ao Kuo, the old dragon prince of the West (Bohai) Sea, whose name is Ao Yan; Jade Dragon's mother is the princess of Ao Ba, the old dragon prince who governs the Northern (Yellow) Sea, and her name is Lulu. With the help of the two immortals, they found an underground hidden waterway connecting the two seas from the land, thus breaking through the bright surface blocking the two seas and blocking the passage of the two sea tribes, which was called the 'copper wall and iron wall of separation by the young men and women of the dragon clan'! They overcame many obstacles and eventually became husband and wife. It is the perfect combination of Ao Run, the eldest son of Ao Kuo, the old dragon prince of the West (Bohai) Sea, and Lulu, the princess of Ao Ba, the old dragon king of the North (Yellow) Sea, that has created a precedent of "distant relatives marrying and eugenics"!

There is a poem as proof:

Straddling the Northwest Sea with two feet

Rotate the sun and moon with both hands

A water wall seals the fish shuttle

Several mountains are separated by dragons

Xianyou people carved Longtan Bay

Brother sings sister and fairy lake

The intention is to truly transform the golden stone

Thousands of difficulties and dangers to get married

With the passage of the era of tribal rule, the dragon kings who later ruled the four seas were: Ao Guang, the dragon king of the East China Sea; Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South China Sea; Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West (Bo) Sea; Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the Northern (Yellow) Sea. In the era when the father of the Dragon King of the Four Seas reigned, it was a tribal ruling system at that time. There was only war and plunder between tribes and tribes. There can be no intermarriage between tribes and tribes. It is even less likely that there will be examples of young men and women in foreign lands falling in love freely. Yulong's father, Ao Yan, is the son of the old dragon king of the West (Bohai) Sea; Jade Dragon's mother, Lulu, was the daughter of the old dragon king of the Northern (Yellow) Sea. The West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea belong to two tribes. Equivalent to two modern countries. It is difficult for princes and princesses of two countries to marry in modern times, let alone in an era of absolute seclusion between tribes. Therefore, the fate of Yulong's parents is really due to time, geography, man (god) and harmony.

The West (Bohai) Sea is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one side of the waterfront is adjacent to the North (Yellow) Sea. In the era of tribal rule and tribal rule, the water wall between the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea was the military demarcation line between modern countries. As long as it's not a war, anyone in the two tribes (countries). None of them can cross this 'border' line that is heavily guarded by both tribes! At that time, the creatures of the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea tribes all called this water wall (line) the 'line of life and death'.

[Narrator] In the era of tribal rule and the total closure of tribal rule, the marriage laws of young men and women were limited to their own tribe. Under the misdirection of the marriage idea of 'fertile water does not flow into other people's fields', the beauties of this tribe are absolutely forbidden to marry other tribes. Due to their inbreeding, dragons have experienced a very serious deterioration of IQ: dementia in infants is prevalent; shortened lifespan; The unnatural mortality rate of unknown etiology increases dramatically.

The fate of Yulong's parents when they were young first benefited from the unique geographical environment between the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea! Between the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea, there is also a deep underground waterway that is hidden beyond the knowledge of the immortals (dragons). On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar every month, when the sea of the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea rises and the tide rises, the confluence point of the sea water of the two seas is Longtan Bay under Longtan Mountain in Delisi Town, Wafangdian City, Fuzhou Bay, Liaodong Peninsula. Longtan Bay is located in Delisi Town, Wafangdian City, Dalian. It is about 20 kilometers away from the downtown area of Wafangdian and about 60 kilometers away from the seaside of Dalian Golden Pebble Beach. It is about 120 kilometers away from Dalian downtown. The water surface of Longtan Bay is not large, only more than one acre. The surrounding banks are made of boulders. The water is pale yellow and bottomless. The underground waterway of Longtan Bay leads to the big cave pool at the mouth of the West Sea (now Bohai Sea); It also leads to the Fairy Lake of Guanglu Island in the North (Yellow) Sea.

Longtan Mountain is located in Delisi Town, Wafangdian City, Dalian City. There are two peaks in Longtan Mountain - Big Tooth Peak and Erya Peak. Legend has it that the Big Tooth Peak was changed by the incarnation of Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West (Bo) Sea. The big tooth peak is like a giant tooth, the cangyan is rugged, the momentum is majestic, dangerous and grandiose. The main peak is 340 meters above sea level, and the flat ground is uprooted, and there is really the potential of the tiger and the dragon. From afar, it's daunting! The tall Big Tooth Mountain, full of sharp mountains, black stones everywhere are dangerous peaks.

Erya Peak was transformed by the incarnation of Lulu, the sister of Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the Northern (Yellow) Sea. Erya Peak Tingting Yuli, the wolf tooth boulder at the top, just like a female leader, looks amorous and tender like water; It also shows her unique charm of hard work and daring to compete with males.

Longtan Mountain is not only a dangerous terrain, but also beautiful and picturesque. Longtan Mountain is composed of cyan rocks as a whole. The whole mountain and ravine, flowers and wild flowers, green vines and green kudzu can be seen everywhere. The dense woods are lush and upright; Mountain springs rush down the canyon. The water hits the bluestone and makes a pleasant sound.

Climb to the top of the mountain and look into the distance, the mountains are undulating and the scenery is quiet. Bohai Bay in the west, sailing waves; Looking at the Shahe River on the east side closely, the water system resembles a jade belt with silver waves; Overlooking the Yellow Sea, there are many islands and reefs, boats shuttling, and waves are stringed; Looking down at the mountains, the countryside is lush, the earth is like brocade, and the flowers and fruits in the forest are like peach orchards.

[Narrator] Longtan Mountain has been a dangerous pass since ancient times. There is an ancient city of the Tang Dynasty in the mountains, and the city wall is still about 4 kilometers long. The mountain castle is made of huge rocks on three sides, and one side is naturally composed of rocky cliffs. The walls are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and they are very strong. The average height is about 3 meters; Up to 6 to 7 meters in height. Although eroded by wind and rain for hundreds of years, the mountain city is still basically good. Legend. In the Yuan Dynasty, two Jiang brothers occupied this mountain as kings. Expand the cottage. Large-scale construction and construction of Longtan Bay. Climb the peak and walk into the stone city, a bend of the waterhole comes into view, this is the Longtan Bay located in the middle of the peak of Longtan Mountain. The water surface of Longtan Bay is not wide, only more than one acre. The surrounding banks are made of boulders. The water is pale yellow and bottomless. Legend has it that this pond was built and there was no water for a long time. Later, he pointed out to the gods and opened the dragon's mouth. Since then, the water has been flowing continuously, and it has become this pool. Someone lost his flat burden in the pool, and half a month later, the flat burden actually came out of the big hole pool leading to the mouth of the West Sea (now Bohai Sea). At that time, Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West (Bohai) Sea, was through this underground waterway, from the West Sea (now Bohai) to Longtan Bay, and played with Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North (Yellow) Sea, and his sister Lulu.

[Distant view, close view plus close-up] The periphery of Longtan Bay is made of stone, there is a wall in the middle, and the water is divided into two. Since the stone wall in the middle is below the water surface, a dark wall is formed. It increases the mystery of Longtan Bay. Those who know the auspicious situation can wade through the pool; You can also ride a horse and dive through the dark wall to cross the pool. And those who don't know the details. Although it is a few steps away, it is very easy to stray into the pool. Because of this, in ancient times, the soldiers guarding the mountain often led the enemy who attacked the mountain to climb the mountain to chase after them, and then strayed into the water of Longtan and were mostly captured and killed. Longtan Mountain is therefore said to be a dangerous pool. It is rumored that this pond leads to the West Sea (now Bohai Sea), and there are dragons who have lived here. Longtan Bay got its name from this. Later, someone built the Dragon King Temple on the side of Longtan Bay, the Taoist Longhua Palace stands majestically beside Longtan Bay, the Laojun Palace, the Divine Doctor Palace, the Guanyin Hall also show their style, and the mortals worship all the year round. The morning and evening drums, the incense lasts for a long time. In the mortal world, where there are traces of dragons, there is a temple (hall, pavilion) of Guanyin. It can be seen that Guanyin Bodhisattva has a deep and friendly relationship with the dragon family. Longtan Mountain in the middle of winter, the mountain breeze is slightly cold, the artemisia grass is sparse, the majestic 'Longtan Mountain' boulders are superimposed, by the mountains and rivers, the long wall is like a huge mountain ring, making Longtan Mountain more unfathomable. The mysterious Longtan Bay is covered with thin ice, and in the crystal ice flowers, the silver style of the jade tree is revealed, and the simple texture is shrouded in a pool of thousand-year-old mystery. Only the tall green pine on the top of the mountain shows the solidity of life and the solemnity of the years in the cold wind. The halls on the edge of Longtan Bay, with blue bricks and tiles, and the windows of the Zhumen Mullions, occasionally reveal the dragon king, Guan Laoye, Taishang Laojun and many other gods and statues of Taidou and majestic eyes.

The sacred and vague Longtan Bay, the sister of Ao Yan, the dragon king of the West Sea (now Bohai), and the sister of Ao Shun, the dragon king of the North (Yellow) Sea, was a tryst place for love, which made the water of Longtan clean and not polluted. If you throw its filth, its water will immediately surge. The autumn wind blows the fallen leaves and floats in them, and they are immediately pushed to the shore by the waves. In winter, it freezes, and the ice surface becomes the texture of plants and flowers, which is very beautiful. For many years, whether it is spring and summer, or autumn and winter, many celebrities, scholars, eunuchs, and ordinary people often come here for sightseeing and enjoying the scenery. Longtan Bay, the elegant and quiet Garden of Eden opened by the ancestors of the dragon family. The author's impression of Fu Shiyun:

Shiya Peak surrounds a pool of water

Yutan Yuan hides several dragons

Wind carved stone barriers

Axe wall adds danger

The wind blows the autumn leaves and prints the ice flowers

The surging holy liquid purifies the filth

Aquariums thrive habitats

The gods love the source of anecdotes

[Distant view, close view plus close-up] The water surface of Longtan Bay is not large, only more than one acre. The surrounding banks are made of boulders. The water is pale yellow and bottomless. The underground waterway of Longtan Bay leads to the big cave pool at the mouth of the West Sea (now Bohai Sea); It also leads to the Fairy Lake of Guanglu Island in the North (Yellow) Sea.

Narrator: Located in the western part of Changshan Island in the northern part of the Yellow Sea, Guanglu Island is a national island forest park and one of the scenic spots in Liaoning Province. Hiroshima Island is composed of 23 large and small islands, rocks and reefs, with a sea area of 1,000 square kilometers and a coastline of 74 kilometers. Guanglu Island is blessed with a unique geographical environment, it is adjacent to Dalian Golden Pebble Beach National Tourism Resort in the west, and faces each other across the sea from Pikou, Dengsha River and other important towns in southern Liaoning in the north, and is the nearest island in Dalian in the Changshan Islands, known as the "gateway of Dalian". Hiroshima Island is the largest island in the Changshan Islands in terms of land area, with fertile soil and abundant fresh water resources, making it the island with the richest freshwater resources among the many islands in Changhai County. Hiroshima Island has a vast sea area and abundant specialties, including ginseng, shrimp, shellfish, and algae. In particular, the island's specialty, the Ezo scallop, is the best among the scallops.

[Distant view, close-up view plus close-up] The most charming scenery on Hiroka Island is Fairy Lake. The fairy lake is beautiful and graceful. A pool of quiet fresh water, visitors stand next to the ancestral temple of Lima, can see the water layer more than ten meters deep underwater, a group of large carp weighing hundreds of pounds like fat pigs, leisurely and proudly swim in the water. Beautiful and charming Fairy Lake, she is the most perfect combination of mountains and water, the most intimate 'party' between the sea and the island! The Fairy Lake is surrounded by rugged mountains and rocks, the lake water is slightly rippling, the waves lap the shore reef, the clouds and smoke are curling, the underground waterway of Longtan Bay leads to the big cave pool of the West Sea (now Bohai Sea), and communicates with the Fairy Lake of Guanglu Island in the North (Yellow) Sea. Longtan Bay is a 'transit station' connecting the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea, an underground waterway that people (gods) do not know about the immortals (dragons), and later became a "magpie bridge" for young men and women of the two tribes of the West (Bohai) Sea and the North (Yellow) Sea to fall in love and marry freely. It is precisely because of this hidden underground waterway that the "distant (international) marriage" between Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West (Bo) Sea, and Ao Shun, the sister of Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North (Yellow) Sea, has been achieved!

The first to discover this deeply hidden underground waterway is: Ao Yan and Ao Shun, the sons of the two dragon lords, who are full of adventure, curiosity, courage to forge ahead, and dare to be the first! Ao Yan, the eldest son of Ao Kuo, the dragon king of the West (Bo) Sea, was very active when he was young, and he began to swim alone in the West (Bo) Sea when he was born, and was familiar with the geographical environment of the West (Bo) Sea. At a very young age, he figured out that the main rivers flowing into the West (Bohai) Sea were the Ji Canal, the Haihe River, the Liao River and other water systems. On the day of his 10th birthday, he wandered to the Great Cave Pond when he suddenly sensed a stream of fresh water "as fragrant as sweet wine" overflowing from the pool. This insignificant "sweet wine-like-fragrant" fresh water, the entire West (Bohai) Sea tribe's creatures, has not sensed for hundreds of millions of years, but the young Ao Yan has a magical allure to this "sweet wine-like-fragrant" fresh water.

Where does this "sweet wine-like" fresh water come from? Ao Yan, who has the courage to break through, is determined to follow its waterway to find out! The young Ao Yan has been roaming the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and has cultivated a dexterous kung fu of "taking into account both soft and hard, and stretching freely"! He took advantage of today's sea tide to follow this "sweet wine-like" freshwater source, through countless crevices and narrow gaps, jumping countless shoals and deep pits, going through thousands of difficulties and dangers, tired and exhausted, and finally came to Longtan Bay.

In all fairness! When Ao Yan, the son of Ao Kuo, the Dragon King of the West (Bo) Sea, came to Longtan Bay, Ao Shun, the son of Ao Ba, the Dragon King of the North (Yellow) Sea, and his sister Lulu, who was 2 years younger than him, also came to Longtan Bay after a lot of hardships! Ao Shun, the son of Ao Ba, the Dragon King of the Northern (Yellow) Sea, has liked his sister Lulu, who is 2 years younger than him, since he was a child. Among the many siblings in the tribe, Ao Shunte likes Lulu, a sister who is 2 years younger than him. When he had something to eat, he always left it for Lulu to eat; With fun stuff, he always leaves it for Lulu to play! Every time he goes out to wander, he always takes Lu Zhen all the way! . This ten-year-old dragon girl, under the leadership of her brother, has the character and courage that a boy is given to take risks and dare to brave the rivers and lakes! There is also the perseverance and spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice and hard work.

[Distant view, close-up view plus close-up] The most charming fairy lake on Guanglu Island in the North (Yellow) Sea is a pool of clear fresh water, beautiful and soft, graceful and colorful, in the young hearts of Ao Shun and Lulu, there is always a temptation like a mystery. Ao Shun and Lulu have been dreaming of exploring the Fairy Lake for years. It is both a coincidence and a fate. On the day when Ao Yan, the son of Ao Kuo, the king of the West (Bo) Sea, explored from Dadongtan to Longtan Bay, Ao Shun and Lulu took the opportunity of the rising tide to enter the Fairy Lake at the same time when the sea water overflowed the Fairy Lake embankment, and they both wanted to explore the Fairy Lake. The refreshing fresh water of Fairy Lake brings infinite joy to Ao Shun and Lulu! Ao Shun and Lulu, a pair of energetic dragon teenagers who are in the transition period of their teenagers, and their sense of adventure (potential) that is not afraid of death is quickly activated.

Where does the freshwater source of Fairy Lake come from?

PS: As the saying goes: Both dragons and phoenixes are born in the womb of the mother. When the Buddha told Chang'e and Guanyin about the experience of the Jade Dragon's multiple reincarnations, the first thing he told was the legendary marriage of the Jade Dragon's biological parents、、、、、、
