There is a stone on the side of Shibapan Road that looks like a carp, with its head on the ground and its body half buried underground. It is said that the ancient emperor was afraid that the country would be unstable, so he sent many yin and yang gentlemen to various places to investigate and destroy the dragon veins. One day, one of them came to Yuntai Mountain and discovered the carp stone. He also saw that there was the first gate of heaven on this mountain. He knew that as long as the carp jumped over the Tianmen, it would turn into a dragon, be born in the mountain owner's house, and when it grows up, it would steal the emperor's empire. Mr. Yin Yang found the mountain owner and told him the truth. The mountain owner was very happy and asked how to make the carp jump over the Tianmen. Mr. Yin and Yang told him that as long as he built eighteen plates next to the carp stone, he would be able to fly to the gate of heaven. So the owner of the mountain hired people to work day and night and built eighteen pans, and Mr. Yin Yang left with peace of mind. It turns out that a carp must jump over the Heavenly Gate to become a dragon. If it lands on eighteen plates, it can only be a dish in the human world, and Feng Shui is thus broken.
