Horse chestnut flower (Horse chestnut flower)
Legend has it that a long time ago, a young man lived in the mountains, whose parents died young, had no siblings, and lived by chopping firewood. One day, while chopping firewood, a poisonous snake suddenly appeared in the grass, and before he could dodge, his calf was bitten by the snake, and after a while, he fell unconscious. But coincidentally, the seven fairies in the sky came to the mountain to bathe in the heavenly pool on the mountain, and when they saw the fainted youth, they moved their compassion and sympathy, and they took out the Luopa cover they carried around his wound. Even more coincidentally, the queen mother also came here in Xiangyun, saw the young man's wound surrounded by the daughters, and understood everything, so she casually pulled out the jasper hairpin on her head and placed it in the center of the 7 ropa. This wound received the fairy qi of Luopa and Jasper Hairpin, and the snake venom quickly disappeared. After the youth gradually woke up, but
Hearing a gust of wind on the ground, he blew Ropa and Jasper Hairpin to the ground, and immediately turned into 7 green leaves holding a golden flower of weeds, he froze at his unscarred leg, he understood that it was this beautiful weed that saved him.
