What is the specific content of the story? Come and find out with the editor! Feng Shui stories have been circulating among the people. They are a symbol of folk wisdom. Let’s take a look at the following Feng Shui legend.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was born in Xuyi, Jiangsu Province. His family had been farmers for generations and was very poor. Due to famine, they moved to Fengyang, Anhui Province. Therefore, people all believed that Zhu Yuanzhang was from Fengyang. Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather was familiar with water and often dived into deep pools to catch fish. He could float and sink freely and had superhuman skills, so people called him "the one who can go into the sea".

Once, when he went down to the sea to fish from the bottom of a pond, he met Master Liu who was looking for Feng Shui dragon veins at the edge of the pond. He saw a straight dragon cave at the bottom of the pond, but because he did not know the nature of water, he could not go down to the pond to form a dragon cave, so he sat by the pond in deep thought. Suddenly, a man was seen floating up from the pool. He was immediately called ashore and asked his name. When you get into the sea, tell them your nickname. Immortal Master Liu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he discussed with Xia Dehai, and they agreed that one day they would each bring the remains of their ancestors here and bury the remains together in the dragon's cave in the deep pool. On that auspicious day, the two men brought the bones to the edge of the pond. Master Liu told them that there was a certain spot at the bottom of the pond that was the shape of a rhinoceros diving into the sea. At a certain time, the rhinoceros would open its mouth. When the time came, they could put the bones into the mouth of the rhinoceros, and the mouth would then close. Xia Dehai had nothing to wrap up the ancestral remains he was carrying, so before leaving he saw some green vegetables in the fields. He wrapped the remains in vegetable leaves and carried them to the pond. Sure enough, he saw a huge rock at the bottom of the pond, facing east and west, like a stone cow with its mouth open and lips sticking out. Xia Dehai then put Master Liu and his own bones into the cow's mouth. Since cows like to eat grass and vegetables, when they suddenly see the vegetable leaves, they will rush to eat them. So the bones of the ancestors who went into the sea were swallowed by the stone cow, and the stone cow's mouth closed immediately. After going down to the sea, he was unable to put the bones of Master Liu's ancestors into the ox's mouth, so he went ashore and told Master Liu. Master Liu knew about this, but was helpless, so he asked him to divide the bones into two bags and hang them on the horns of the stone ox respectively. He went down to the sea and into the bottom of the pool, where he hung the bones on the horns of the ox. After coming ashore, he told Master Liu. Immortal Master Liu congratulated him and said, "The left horn is the minister, the right horn is the minister, and a monk comes from the cow's mouth." When Xia Dehai heard the words "a monk comes from the cow's mouth", he was very angry. Seeing this, Immortal Master Liu had no choice but to change his name and said, "The left horn is the left minister, the right horn is the right minister, the Zhu family emperor and the Liu family prime minister, the dynasty changes but the prime minister does not." Xia Dehai calmed down when he heard "the Zhu family emperor", bowed to thank him and went back.

After that, Jiangsu suffered a famine, and Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and villagers wandered in Fengyang, Anhui, where they both died of illness soon after. Zhu Yuanzhang became lonely and miserable from then on. He had no choice but to shave his head and become a monk. He entered a temple to study under a master, chanted scriptures, worshipped Buddha, and lived the life of a monk. Later, he felt that being a monk was too negative and had no future, so he went down the mountain and joined the army in Haozhou. Due to years of famine and the extreme corruption of the Yuan Dynasty government, the country was in chaos. Guo Zixing, Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng and others all rebelled one after another, each ruling a different area, killing each other. The Yuan government was unable to quell the rebellion and was in danger of extinction. Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity to plan to conquer the world with heroes such as Liu Bowen, Xu Da, and Chang Yuchun. Later he overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, unified the world, and was enthroned as emperor, while Liu Bowen was appointed prime minister, fulfilling the prophecy of "the Zhu family rules the world and the Liu family is prime minister".
