According to legend, a long time ago, the Jianghuai area was a beautiful and rich place. People live and work in peace and harmony. Unexpectedly, northern nomads invaded the Jianghuai area, burning, killing and looting. The disaster never rains but it pours, and they also suffered from locusts, which led to the displacement of people everywhere, hunger and cold. At that time, the government ignored it and the people complained.
This incident alarmed the heaven, and the Jade Emperor appointed Taibai Jinxing as the plenipotentiary ambassador. Therefore, Taibai Venus launched a first-level emergency plan-that is, to build three towers in the most serious places: on the one hand, as a defense line and shelter against foreign enemies. Is to form a triangle siege, you can observe the enemy from the top of the tower and shoot the invading enemy from the commanding heights; On the other hand, sacred birds that eat locusts are kept on the floor of the tower to eliminate locusts.
The plan has been decided. One night, Taibai Venus rode a BMW and instantly came to earth. He pressed the cloud head, closed his eyes, waved and said a spell. In an instant, countless craftsmen lined up and began to build towers. When the immortals were busy, they saw that the Three Towers were about to be completed. Just then, they suddenly heard a cry-the chief engineer Taibai Jinxing immediately ordered to stop working and said, "The crow is about to break dawn. Never let mortals see the tower-building project-the secret must not be revealed! " Then I quit the team and floated away ... walking, Taibai Venus flashed in her mind and understood that someone was "cheating"! It turns out that there is a landlord like "Zhou Pipi". In order to make long-term workers get up early for work, we should learn to crow and urge them to get up early for work. At this moment, Taibai Venus was angry from her heart, read the spell, threw away the dust on her body, and the bad landlord was thrown into eighteen layers of hell, and she was never allowed to live beyond life. She said to all the immortals: "Before the catastrophe, those who were rich and heartless had bad intentions and were unforgivable!"
After a false alarm, the chief engineer Taibai Jinxing ordered the immortal to build three more towers on the spot according to the cloud head. At the same time, several magicians were assigned to quickly complete the three unfinished towers that had just been built. In this way, all the two towers and three towers built before dawn were completed. Only due to time constraints, the three towers built later are slightly smaller than the three towers built first. So, later, there was the saying of "North Three Pagodas" and "South Three Pagodas", namely, Santazhen in Taihe County (North Three Pagodas) and Santaji Town in Funan County (South Three Pagodas, now under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou District of Fuyang City).
It is said that overnight, three glittering towering pagodas stood out in the fertile fields of thousands of miles, so thousands of people were amazed, told each other goodbye, and all kinds of monsters fled on hearing the wind ... Since there were three pagodas in the cloud, foreign enemies withdrew and locusts disappeared, the original rich and peaceful scene was restored here. Later, the place where the pagoda stood slowly formed a market. People named this place "Three Pagodas" to commemorate the benefits these three magical pagodas brought to people, and also to recall and remember that difficult time. For thousands of years, the "Three Pagodas" have experienced the change of dynasties and the baptism of war, and the Three Pagodas have gradually disappeared in thousands of years of natural storms and the smoke of war. Therefore, people today can no longer see the legendary Three Pagodas thousands of years ago.
This is the origin and myth of the "Three Pagodas".
In order to live a better and happier life, or based on local entrepreneurship, or travel to the north and south of the Yangtze River, the Santas wrote a vigorous and passionate hymn of survival!
