Legend of roses
In Greek legend, the rose was created by cross, the Greek god of flowers. At first the rose was just a lifeless seed of a fairy in the forest. One day, cross, the God of flowers, happened to find it in a clearing in the forest. Cross asked Aphrodite, the God of love, to give it a beautiful appearance; Dionysus, the God of wine, poured wine on it to give it a fragrant smell. The three goddesses of beauty and grace gave it charm, intelligence and joy. Then the west wind blew away the clouds, and Apollo, the sun god, was able to shine on it and make it blossom. Thus the rose was born, and was immediately crowned Queen of flowers.
Legend of roses II
It is said that roses only grow green branches and leaves, and do not bloom. Why did the flowers bloom again? There is a touching story in the land of roses!
A long time ago, there was a mountain peak, and there was a general spring on the top of the peak. People called this spring "Golden Spring", and this mountain was called "water mountain".
There is a village at the foot of the water mountain. There is a couple of lonely young men and women in the village. The man's name is Liu lang. his parents died early, leaving him only a wood knife and a shoulder pole to make a living by collecting firewood. The female's name is Cuiping. When her parents died, she only left her a spade and a basket to collect herbs. In the evening, she came back with both firewood and herbs. The common fate, common, so that the two people respect and love each other, help each other, and form a friendship higher than Shuishan and longer than Jinquan. Soon, the two of them secretly set a life.
One day, Liu Lang was cutting firewood in the East Mountain and Cuiping was gathering herbs in the west mountain. Liu langjue was a little sleepy, so he fell asleep with the bundle of firewood. In his sleep, he faintly smelled the fragrance of the old flowers. Liu Lang got up all his life and walked with the fragrance of the flowers. He saw a crescent shaped cave door in front of him, with the words "water mountain Royal Garden" written on it. Liu Lang thought: since I was a child, I cut firewood in this water mountain, and I have traveled all over the mountain. However, I don't know that there is such a place. I might as well go in and see what the scenery is. Push the door and have a look! The flowers and plants in full bloom all over the garden, and the wind blowing in the face is fragrant. Liu Lang didn't know that this was a garden in heaven. Every May, when the flowers are in full bloom, the queen mother brings many fairies to visit and enjoy the flowers. As Liu Lang watched and praised, he came to the middle of the garden and saw a flower bed made of crystal bricks. The flower tree in the middle of the flower bed was particularly popular. The red puffed and fluffy flower group looked like the smiling face of sister Cuiping. It's a pity that only this beautiful flower has opened. Liu Lang looked at the flower again and again, and suddenly thought, isn't this a rose? There are roses all over the water mountain, but they never bloom. How can the roses here bloom? They are so beautiful. By the way, I'll take this rose back and put it on sister Cuiping's head. She will be happy. Liu Lang picked off the flowers and just wanted to turn around and leave. Two soldiers in armor and holding long Yu in their hands yelled loudly and blocked their way: "bold ordinary men, how dare you pick fairy flowers here.". After saying this, he tied Liu Lang's knot firmly and took it away.
Besides, Cuiping, who came back from picking herbs in the west mountain, lost Liu Lang and called out: "Liu Lang --- Liu Lang --". Go to the top of the mountain. Suddenly from the cliff in front of Liu Lang's voice: "Cui Ping sister, I'm here.". Cuiping looked up and saw Liu Lang's hands tied and standing on the cliff. Behind him stood two heavenly soldiers with vertical eyebrows and horizontal eyes. Cuiping ran to Liu Lang with tears and shouts. He broke into the imperial garden of the queen mother, and he dared to pick the only rose in the world. He committed a heinous crime. I was ordered to take him to do hard labor for life. On hearing this, Cuiping cried out: "you can't take him away. Return my Liu Lang Tianbing laughed: "your Liu Lang, unless the roses of Shuishan are blooming." With that, the spear in his hand pointed to the bottom of the cliff. He only heard a thunder and flashed a dazzling fire. Cuiping suddenly fainted on the cliff.
I don't know how long after that, Cuiping slowly woke up, looked at the empty cliff top, called Liu Lang, and began to cry sadly. Cuiping is a girl with love and ambition. In order to let the roses on the mountain bloom and let her beloved Liu Lang return to her side. When it was still full of stars, she would go up the mountain to pick up the golden spring water and water the roses on the mountain. Until the moonlight was full of water, she came back slowly. The stones on the mountain road had worn her feet, the thorns on the slope had cut her clothes. Her bright sweat and red blood were dripping all over the mountains and stone weirs. It's like this, until the tenth spring. On this day, Cuiping girl will go to the mountain to water again. Open the door and have a look! See the mountains and fields are full of bright flowers, like a string of red agate, like a ball of fire. The roses are in bloom! Cuiping girl was so surprised that she picked a bunch of roses in a hurry and cried: "brother Liu Lang, the roses are blooming --!". I ran to the cliff of Dongshanling. Just before I ran to the cliff, I heard the sound of thunder, and then a dazzling light flashed. In the flash, a figure floated down from the cliff. Cuiping fixed her eyes on it, and it was Liu Lang who had been longing for so long that he came back. Cuiping threw herself into Liu Lang's arms. Liu Lang stroked the scars on Cuiping's body and looked at the blooming roses in the mountains. His tears were like broken pearls dripping on Cuiping's cheek and on the fresh and tender roses.
Since then, the rose of Shuishan will bloom bright flowers every spring. Later, in order to remember this pair of young people who worked hard for the rose blossom, they called Shuishan as Cuiping mountain and the golden spring on the mountain as liulangquan. He also built a pagoda on the cliff for them. It is said that after their death, both Liu Lang and Cuiping became immortals and became the gods of flowers in the sky, and they were in charge of thousands of grass and flowers on earth. Every year when the roses are blooming, the couple will come back to watch them. In the dead of night, standing among the rose bushes under the pagoda, they can still hear them whispering their confidants!
