An allusion to eating radish in early spring
According to legend, in ancient times, people began to engage in agriculture when they were hunting. At that time, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors all listed grain production as the basis of all things. The local people, even more, use grain as their duty. Therefore, regardless of the three emperors and five emperors, or the people of the township people, the spring of the first year of age is even more important. At that time, people arrived in the beginning of the spring and they celebrated in various ways and ceremonies.
One year before the beginning of the spring, when people packed up the field farms and prepared to meet the beginning of the spring, unexpectedly, the plague had caused all of them to spread an unspeakable disease. This kind of disease is strange. Everyone is short-minded, desperate and desolate. There is not a little spirit. It looks like drunkenness. All of them are top-heavy, and they have no strength to raise their hands.
One day before the beginning of spring, a well-dressed person came to a village. He saw that the village quietly couldn't hear the crows and dogs, but no one was moving. It was a bit weird. He came to a family on the edge of the village and knocked at the door. No one answered. The door was hidden, he thought for a moment and said, "Is anyone in the house?" Pushing the door into the house. There were five people lying on the coffins in the room. All the faces were dark, dim and sleepy. They were full of dust, and it seemed that some days no one had been cleaned. The Taoist shouted a few words. No one answered him. He rushed to a middle-aged man and asked him what he had done. The middle-aged man lifted his eyelids and co-authors with a faint voice and said intermittently: “All the people in the village had a kind of I'm sick like this." The Taoist has been stumbling over several times. The situation is the same. Taoist people are inexplicable.
So he came under an old tree in the east head of the village. He sat in an abundance in the south, provoked a single palm, sat in an awkward position, and read in his mouth. It turned out that he prayed to the Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea for a way to heal the plague. After touching about three hours, the Taoist squatted and suddenly stood up. He quickly ran back to the hospital and he went to plan. He plucked a bag of radishes and quickly ran to the village. At this time, it was early the next morning. The Taoist found a big rooster from a family in the village, pulled down a few chicken feathers, and tied it to the ground. The Taoist answered with an eye to his eyes, and a dialogue with the Goddess of Bodhisattvas took place in his mind: Goddess of Mercy told him that when the land was open, let the people of the township eat a few radishes each, and the plague would be automatically unlocked. After a kung fu with about a bag of cigarettes, the feathers on the ground suddenly moved. The Taoist was pleasantly surprised. He shouted: “The air has passed and the air has passed.†Every family that ran toward the village, let People eat radish.
As a result, it was really efficacious. After people had eaten radish, they were all well. People squatted to the Taoist people and thanked him for his help. The Taoist said: "Everybody invites me. Don't thank me. I should thank Guanyin Bodhisattva. However, everyone should go and save others now. There are still many radishes in my courtyard. Everyone comes to the neighboring village to save people!" After listening, he rushed to the village of Shiliba with radish. The plague solved, and people lived a peaceful and happy life.
Since then, people have radishes in the beginning of the spring for peace.
