"Since then, people have spread falsehoods, and the real story has completely lost its true meaning, the reason why Qianlong built in Guangyue Tower, the purpose is to guard this well, looking forward to seeing the red fish again!"

"But since then, the red fish has never appeared again, and another reason why Qianlong must come to the water city every time he goes to the south of the Yangtze River is because this place was called the Phoenix Ancient City in ancient times, and Kangxi also came here to look for the Phoenix footprints!"

"Presumably, before you came here just now, you saw a stone tablet opposite Guangyue Tower, with the words Phoenix Terrace written on it, right?"

Bai Xiaolong suddenly changed the topic, looked at everyone and asked!

"Huh?"

"Is there one?"

"I don't think I saw it just now?"

Li Bo tilted his head and thought about what he saw on the road when he came just now, and said!

"You're just chatting with Miss Lan, where do you pay attention to other things?"

Zhang Ying looked at Li Bo with a smile and said!

"Why are you looking at me, shadow, if you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that I hammer you?"

Lan Yingying glanced at Zhang Ying and said!

"Yes, I can't afford to mess with it!"

"Say no more!"

After speaking, Zhang Ying looked at Bai Xiaolong and said:

"Brother Bai is talking about the stone tablet erected opposite the Guangyue Tower?"

"Yes, that's it!"

Bai Xiaolong said!

Then he said:

"It seems that Brother Zhang is still observant!"

"No, it's just that the stone tablet is very old, and I occasionally glance at it!"

Zhang Ying said modestly!

In fact, he glanced at it, when he saw the stele for the first time, Zhang Ying felt his difference, the old stele exudes a sense of vicissitudes of the times, although it has gone through thousands of years, but you can still feel its former majesty!

And what is even more terrifying is that the aura emanating from under the base of that stone tablet carries an endless sense of oppression, and the coercion exuded by this oppression from cultivation from time to time is an ancient aura of its own existence!

This kind of aura is daunting, just a few people just passed by, but the accidental glance made Zhang Ying have a feeling of wanting to go over to worship, this feeling is as if there is a strong man standing there, which is as fearful!

Suddenly, when he heard Bai Xiaolong talk about the stone tablet, Zhang Ying became interested, looked at Bai Xiaolong and said:

"Brother Bai, you are knowledgeable, why don't you tell me and listen to it?"

"Yes, yes, Xiaolong, come and hear about it?"

Lan Yingying looked at Bai Xiaolong like a nymphomaniac and said!

I have to say that this Bai Xiaolong is handsome, fair-skinned, thin, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, just like a beautiful man, no wonder Lan Yingying's appearance association will not be a nymphomaniac!

Looking at everyone, Bai Xiaolong smiled slightly and said:

"Okay, it's just that I've heard about it, and I've only heard it, so don't you laugh at me?"

"Well, no one will laugh at you, and they may not know if you do?"

Lan Yingying didn't wait for everyone to speak, she looked at everyone and said!

"Well, in fact, there is a legend about the origin of this Phoenix Terrace, as for whether it is a legend or not, it is not clear now, because this place has disappeared for a long time?"

"It is said that thousands of years ago, this area of the water city is an endless plane forest, in the middle of the woods on an open ground, there is a large earth platform several zhang high, standing on the platform can overlook a radius of 100 miles, this earth platform is called the Phoenix Terrace, speaking of the origin of the Phoenix Terrace, there is really an amazing story!"

"In the autumn of a very long time ago, it rained heavily for 7749 days in a row, and the Yellow River burst, and the water rushed towards this sycamore forest.

"I have been rushing for ninety-nine eighty-one days, I don't know how much soil has been swept away by the Yellow River, just knowing that the woods are surrounded by water, unfathomable, and there is a big snake living in this water that I don't know when, as thick as a clay pot, several zhang long, not only making waves in the water, but also sticking its head out of the water to spray clouds and mist!"

"The big snake often devours the birds in this sycamore forest, all the birds that pass by on the water, none of them are spared, the people of this side of Li have also been hurt a lot by it, as long as it is convenient to walk people are helpless to move to other places, when the merchants from all over the world pass here, they are scared to take a detour!"

The phoenix, the king of birds living in the sycamore forest, was determined to get rid of this scourge, and saw a female phoenix flying out of the phoenix platform to find a big snake to fight, known as the "male phoenix and female phoenix", and the two took the phoenix as more brave!"

"This female phoenix and the big snake have been fighting fiercely for three days and three nights, no winner or loser, was knocked down by the snake's tail, the ground is three feet thick, and the snakeskin and snake flesh that was injured and cut by the phoenix's wings are also more than three feet high on the ground!"

"Later, a male phoenix flew from the phoenix platform, the female phoenix led the snake out of the hole in front, the male phoenix stood by in the back, suddenly fell from the sky, roared, and the big snake fought in one place, the big snake raised its head more than a foot high, a big mouth, revealing the sharp teeth like a sword, stretched out a fiery poisonous tongue, and made a cloud of stinky smoke!"

"The phoenix was difficult to approach for a while, so it fell to the phoenix platform to rest for a while, and then, the male phoenix fought with the snake first, and fought for more than an hour, the male phoenix deliberately failed, retracted its wings and returned, wanting to lead the big snake to the side of the phoenix platform, in order to facilitate the decisive battle!"

"The big snake saw that the male phoenix was defeated and wanted to flee, so he sucked back desperately, at this moment, the female phoenix spread her wings like lightning and struck, only one wing, immediately cut the snake into two, the phoenix both flew back to this phoenix platform, observed the movement for a few days, and saw that the big snake was indeed dead, only to spread its wings and fly high to recall the lost birds!"

"After a few months, the water receded, and as the sycamore forests began to disappear, at first the fog filled the entire sycamore forest, but then the fog faded, but there was no longer a shadow of the sycamore forest, and the birds were gone!"

"It seems that there has never been such a sycamore forest in the whole water city, but the platform left in the middle of the original forest is still there, lying so lonely in the place where it was originally a rich sycamore forest!"

"The serpent is dead, the phoenix is gone, the sycamore forest is gone, and as the water recedes, it seems that everything has returned to the original point, and the people who remain in the city have begun to write letters to recall their relatives, reclaim the farmland, and return to their hometown!"

Since then, the people in this area have gradually returned to their hometowns and lived in peace and contentment, but it was always the Phoenix that saved these people, and they did not forget the merits of the Phoenix for the sake of the people, and spontaneously organized skilled craftsmen to cut down trees and burn bricks...... After years of brickwork!"

"On the phoenix platform, a majestic and magnificent four-fold eaves mountain cross back with a phoenix wooden structure pavilion was built, people called the phoenix building, and the descendants changed it to the Dongchang ancient building so far!"
