In the northernmost part of Yangtan in southeastern Anhui Province, there are three villages with the name "Mo", called Lao mo village, Hou Mo village and Mo village. All three villages are largely located along the Tongwei River. Old Mo Village is in Hexi, Mo Village and Hou Mo Village are in Hedong. The three villages are of different sizes, not far apart, and are in harmony with each other.
In fact, the three villages were not originally called Mo Village. Well, there are still a bit of long twists and turns.
It is said that gan will forge swords at the behest of King Wu, and his wife Mo Xie will fan her husband on the side, wipe sweat, and ease the fatigue of the general. Three months have passed, and the gold and iron essence collected from the five mountains and six rivers in the furnace has not melted. If the iron is not transformed, the sword cannot be forged. If the construction period is delayed, King Wu will be angry. Therefore, the general stopped Mo Xie's fan and wiped the sweat, let the sweat fall into the furnace, and asked Mo Xie to cut his hair and nails into the furnace, and let three hundred virgin boys and girls drum and put charcoal, and the iron stone began to melt. Three years later the sword was forged. The swords forged are two yin and yang, the yang sword is the dry general, and the yin sword is Mo evil. When presenting the sword, Gan General had a premonition that something was wrong, and he cut off a little of his hair and nails and handed it to Mo Xie, telling her to take it out in a critical moment; Cheng Jian also only sent the female sword----- because the construction period has been delayed, after the two swords are presented, the husband and wife may be in danger.
King Wu was overjoyed to see the sword, and danced a few times, only to feel that the wind was habitual and the cold was compelling. The high-ranking people around King Wu saw that this sword should be male and female, and said that Gan would hide the male sword privately. King Wu was furious and killed the general, leaving Mo Xie to track down the whereabouts of the sword.
Grief-stricken, Mo Xie absconded overnight with his sword and widowed daughter. After more than three months of trekking through the mountains and waters, he finally escaped to settle down near the confluence of the Tong River and the Shuishui River. Half a year later, Mo Xie gave birth to a widowed daughter, named Jasmine.
When Jasmine first learned to walk, Mo Xie taught her the basic kung fu of sword dance. Before Jasmine's tenth birthday was over, Mo Xie took out his sword and let Jasmine practice her sword. I don't know if it was because she was too young or because the sword was too strong, Jasmine's sword training was always not very good, and her sword skills did not grow much. By the time Jasmine reached the age of fifteen, the Sword Technique was still not essential. After failing to practice his sword and hopeless for revenge, coupled with the fact that he heard that King Wu had been severely injured and killed by Yue Dafu Linggu fu in the battle with Yue Guo's Que Li, Mo Xie gradually dispelled the idea of cultivating his daughter to avenge his father.
Just when Mo Xie's mother and daughter decided to live a dull life here, the rumors of Jasmine's beauty and the news of the appearance of the sword of Gan General went hand in hand, which attracted the covetousness of various characters.
Among the coveters, the Tong River King and the Water Lord are the most famous. Their goals were highly aligned: one for Jasmine and two for the sword. The King of Tonghe took the lead and built a village on the west side of the Tonghe River, taking the village of Supermo model to show that the mountains are high and densely forested, and the people of the domain are orderly. Not to be outdone, the owner of the water was not to be outdone, and built a house and a village on the east side of the water, named Desert Village to show that the waters were wide and well-educated. The two mangfu were preoccupied with building a nest and leading the phoenix, and they didn't even figure out which Mo word mo xie and jasmine's names were. They took turns to offer courtesy and trickery to Jasmine's mother and daughter, and the mother and daughter were not moved or afraid. Over the years, the two gods could not succeed, and Jasmine's mother and daughter could not live in peace. Jasmine told them privately, you duel, whoever wins, I will move to which village, who will have everything. The King of the Tong River and the Lord of the Water Pond thought, Yes, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and one water is difficult to absorb two dragons. After Mo Xie knew Jasmine's bad idea, it was too late to stop it.
Just like the later history of the Fahai monk Shui Man Jinshan Temple, the King of Tonghe fought a water war with the main water lord. For a time, fertile land was destroyed, houses collapsed, villagers died and were injured, and they were displaced. Faced with this situation, Jasmine regretted it and yelled: If you fight like this again, I will kill myself. In order to get both the sword and the beauty, the two gods temporarily stopped fighting. For a while, the wind and waves were calm.
Mo Xie knew that this kind of calm would only be short-lived if there was no absolutely effective way to maintain it. She suddenly remembered that the dry hair and nails that would be given to her might work. So she cut her fingers and took three drops of blood, mixed the blood with those hairs and nails and burned them into ashes, put them into a large vat, and used the water of this large vat to dry the sword. When she first began to grind, she felt that the sword was quite heavy. Seven days passed, the sword was much lighter, and half a month later, she was able to lift nothing. She knew that this was the result of the couple's sperm and blood coupling, and the dry hair and nails enhanced her skills, and it was for this reason that her daughter Jasmine could never practice the dry sword. Her heart was solid.
The immortal King of the Tong River and the Lord of the Water Retreat retreated this time, and they came to the door together to get the sword or jasmine, and they only asked for one person or one thing. Mo Xie looked at them coldly. After a few cold rounds, they thought that the mother and daughter duo were lonely and widowed. The water lord moved his hands and feet on Jasmine. Mo Xie took out his sword and shook it for a moment, and the King of TongHe and the Water Lord simultaneously struck a cold gag. After half a day, seeing that Mo Xie had no other action, the two guys were eager to move again, and they clamped Jasmine's mother and daughter one after the other. Mo Evil was furious, and the first sword stabbed at the Water Lord, and the last sword stabbed at the King of Tonghe. Looking at the two demon heads who were dying, Mo Xie said, As the king of one water, you do not think of saving the people and benefiting one side, but you do not know the high and low, and your desire is boundless. Let you wait for the rampage, heaven forbid. You will be given justice as soon as possible, and you will be able to do justice to heaven and earth early. With that, kick the two corpses into the river.
In order to prevent the newborn River King River Lord from causing another disaster, Mo Xie slashed the ground with his sword, and forcibly connected the Tong River, which was not connected, with the ShuiShui, and called the lower reaches of the two rivers and the Tong River. Mo Evil thought that the two demon heads fighting method caused the flood to cause the people's families to be destroyed because of their mother and daughter, and the house built by the two demon heads should be given to the damaged villagers to live. In order to minimize the traces left by the two demon kings, Jasmine dug east to dig out the three points of water of the mocun "mo" character built by the main water lord, and Mo Xie went west and cut off the wooden character of the "mo" character of the mo village built by the Tonghe Wang. The place where the mother and daughter live originally did not have a name, and it was also named Mo Village because of the names of the mother and daughter. The three places are called Mo Village, and naturally they have nothing to do with the Tonghe King and the Water Lord. After doing this, Jasmine's mother and daughter went to invite the villagers whose homes had been destroyed nearby to live in the villages. Over time, the population multiplied, and three villages were formed.
It is inconvenient for three villages to be called one name too close together. Later, people called the village built by The King of Tonghe Old Mo Village, the village built by the main water source called Hou Mo Village, and the place where Mo Evil Jasmine lived was called Mo Village.
I don't know whether it is joy or regret, with the launch of the Phoenix Mountain Reservoir Project, these three villages will exist at the bottom of the reservoir in a few years. At that time, the enmity and hatred of the King of Tonghe and the Lord of The Water Will also go with the waves and be lost to future generations.
Note: The site of the Ganjiang Mo Evil Cast Sword is located in the scenic area of Wuhu Shenshan Park and is an important part of the "Red Cast Qingfeng", one of the Eight Scenic Spots of Wuhu.
