According to legend, a long time ago, a rain of stars and rocks fell here, causing mountains to roar and tsunamis to form, and ravines and islands were formed immediately. A lonely young man named Da Chang. He was handsome, kind, hardworking and brave. He came here to open up wasteland, farm, fish and hunt, and lived a hard life. The beautiful fairy Qiaoyan and her sisters came here to play. When they saw the robe, they fell in love at first sight, so they came to the mortal world and got married to her. Husband and wife love each other, men farm and women weave, and they enjoy family happiness. One day, the Queen Mother discovered that the fairy Qiaoyan was missing, so she came to the human world and took her away. Looking at her beloved wife disappearing from the horizon, she was so sad that she jumped off a cliff and committed suicide. The moment he entered the sea, he turned into a black swallow with golden threads. Since then, thousands of black swallows have come here to live and breed every spring and autumn. Later generations named this place "Yanwo Ridge".
There are many opinions about the origin of the name Laohutan. Some people say that it was a desolate place in the past, and there were tigers on the mountain. Others say that the cave in the sea is called Tiger Cave. Every time the tide rises in the middle of the night, the waves come in and make an echo like the roar of a tiger.
There is also a folk legend that is widely circulated, saying that a fierce tiger often comes down from the mountain to hurt people and animals. One day, the Dragon King's daughter was picking flowers on the hillside and was snatched away by the evil tiger. There was a young man named Shicao. Hearing the cry for help, he chased with his sword, forcing the evil tiger to abandon the dragon girl and run away. In order to repay Shicao for saving his life, Longnu married him. Shi Cao thought that if the evil tiger was not eliminated, the people would not be able to live in peace for a day, so he went to the mountain to eliminate the tiger on the first day after his marriage. The dragon girl told him that this evil tiger was the black tiger star in the sky and came down to earth. Only the sword in the dragon palace could subdue it. The Dragon Girl returned to the palace to borrow the sword. Unexpectedly, on the day Dragon Girl left, the evil tiger came down the mountain again to hurt people. Shicao couldn't wait for the sword, so he fought with the evil tiger, swung his sword to cut off the flying tiger's teeth, and fell into the sea, becoming the tiger tooth reef; he also grabbed the tiger's tail, It was thrown to Lushun Harbor and became the tiger's tail; finally, half of the tiger's head was cut off and it became half of the mountain; the tiger's body was paralyzed on the seashore and became the tiger beach. The stone trough died from injuries and turned into a rock. The dragon girl came back from cherishing her sword and saw that her husband was dead. She was so sad that she didn't want to live. She lay down next to her husband and turned into a beauty reef
There is also a legend about the beautiful Tiger Beach. It is said that a long time ago, there was a small fishing village in Laohutan. There was a young man in the village who made a living by fishing. He grew up and fell in love with a long-haired childhood sweetheart from the same village. Happiness was waiting for them. But then misfortune struck: one day, a nearby bully came across this beautiful girl. He suddenly felt evil thoughts and sent a tiger he raised to snatch the girl away. A young fisherman who returned from fishing found that his long-haired girl was missing. He couldn't help but become anxious. Under the guidance of the villagers, he took an ax and went straight to the bully's house overnight, determined to rescue his beloved girl. On the beach in front of the bully's door, he encountered the tiger's obstruction. The young man fought the tiger for three hundred rounds, and finally killed the tiger in the shallow sea and rescued the long-haired girl. From then on, the young man and the long-haired girl lived in that fishing village lovingly.
But the dead tiger turned into rocks, and the nearby villagers called it "Tiger Beach"
Laotieshan in the southwest corner of Lushun is the largest mountain in Lushun. Connected to the mountain peak, it looks very majestic.
There is an automatically rotating lighthouse at the southernmost end of Laotieshan Mountain. At night, the light on the lighthouse illuminates the sea surface with a golden light, and even the flowers, plants and trees on Laotieshan Mountain are shining. You can see them all. Every summer, the mountain peaks are shrouded in fog, appearing and disappearing. It is also a famous wonder of Lushun - Laotieshan wearing a hat.
In fact, Laotieshan was not called Laoshan. Tieshan is called Ma Shishan. So, how did the name Laotieshan come from? This has to start with Panlong Mountain. This Panlong Mountain is at the northwest corner of Laotieshan. Every April 18th, there is a temple fair here. Temple fair It was a lively day. There was a theater tent set up on the top of the mountain. There were cultural and martial arts dramas inside, and there were a huge number of people watching the theater. At the bottom of the mountain, there were stalls doing small business, selling delicacies, needles, threads, brains, and everything you wanted. One year, a man from the south knew how to watch. A master of Feng Shui came to the temple fair. In the crowd, he found a golden pony jumping around. The master hurriedly took out a red rope from his waist, tied a buckle, and was about to tie it around the horse's neck. The golden colt raised its head to the ground, raised its tail, and flew up into the air with its four hooves, flying towards a mountain in the southeast. When the old Taoist saw it, he gave chase.
The old Taoist gave chase. I rushed to the mountain and took a look around. It turned out that this was a treasure land. The mountains were golden mountains, the rivers were the Milky Way, dragons were flying in the sky, phoenixes were dancing on the ground, and the mountains were full of gold and silver treasures. The old Taoist thought: If the golden pony is led to the south, , all these treasures have to be moved, wouldn’t I be richer? So he looked east and west, looking around for the golden pony. But he searched for a long time and couldn’t find it. It was dark, and the old road went down the mountain. So he lived in a carved shack. The old Taoist woke up the next day. As soon as he came out of the shack, he suddenly saw the golden pony grazing behind a house. He walked up quietly and was about to catch it with his hands. , who would have thought that the golden horse seemed to have eyes all over its body, and flew towards the top of the mountain with a "swish" sound. The old man chased after it and arrived at the top of the mountain. He looked around and looked here and there, but there was no trace of the golden horse! Suddenly, he saw a golden horse stone on the top of the mountain. This stone was exactly the same as the golden horse, except that it could not move. This was what the golden horse had become.
The old Taoist refused to give up. We went down the mountain and found the house where the golden horse was eating grass. There was only one old man in this house. He asked the old man: "What kind of grass is growing behind your house?" The old man said, "It's golden needles!" The old man understood, it turned out to be golden horse. The horse specializes in eating golden needle leaves. He asked the old man again: "Isn't anyone touching your grass?" The old man said: "I don't care, anyway, the grass grows in spring and will be gone in autumn." The old man said to the old man: " Next year you count from the Dragon Boat Festival, and after a hundred days, you cut the grass, dry it and stack it up. I will give you how much money you want!" The old man said: "Okay!"
The second year, the weather was good, the grass grew green and the flowers bloomed yellow, but no one was around. In autumn, the old man had nothing to do, so he went to the back of the house to take a look. He looked at it several times in a row God, the grass is losing one piece every day. When the old man saw that it was not good, he cut the grass, dried it and piled it up. After living there for a few days, the old man came and asked the old man: "How much do you want this grass?" The old man said "You can tell me how much a pile of grass is worth!" The old man said, "How about I give you fifty taels of silver?" When the old man heard this, he was startled and thought, how could a pile of grass be worth so much? Without waiting for the old man to reply, Qian Laodao took out fifty taels of silver from his money bag and handed it to the old man. The old Taoist took out a handful of grass from the haystack and climbed to the top of the mountain. He held the grass in his hand and kept holding it. The ground shook and shook. At this time, I saw that the golden horse stone came to life. It jumped up and flew to the old road. He smelled the grass with his nose and immediately turned around and flew towards the sky. It turned out that the old man had The grass was cut early, and the Golden Pony didn't recognize it anymore. Because there was no golden needle grass, the Golden Pony no longer wanted to stay on this mountain. After it flew away, the gold and silver treasures all over the mountain also went with it. Once the treasure was gone, Feng Shui If the feng shui of a treasure land is leaked, it will suffer a catastrophe. Soon, a fire broke out in Mashi Mountain. The fire burned for three days and three nights, and even the sky was lit red. All the birds, animals, flowers, plants and trees on the mountain were destroyed. Burned out. After the fire was extinguished, Mashishan was dark, like a big black iron pot with a sharp bottom.
The iron pot was buckled there. From then on, Mashishan was called Laotieshan
