beautiful legend
Shucheng County, Anhui Province, is located at the tip of the Dabie Mountains. It produces small orchids with excellent quality and scent of orchids. It also has a touching story about its origins.
According to legend, a long time ago, there was a large manor at the foot of Qiyun Mountain in the Dabie Mountains. The owner was called Li Zhanshan. Li Zhanshan wanted to take advantage of the female orchids. Orchids would rather die than die. They escaped with the help of their sisters, climbed the mountains and came to the bat cave. There is a tea tree growing in the gap stone cave outside the Bat Cave. There is bat manure all the year round as a fertilizer, which looks particularly luxuriant and leaves a bud. In the Ching Ming period, new shoots were extracted. The little orchids took off buds and leaves and brought them to the house of an old lady under the mountain, fried it in the pot and sold it to the street. A poor man saw the tea well, gave the orchid five hundred bucks, bought the tea, came to the teahouse, drank the tea and drank it, he felt that it was a good tea, and the tea shoppers had to buy it. The poor man gave the tea to everyone. .
When the news came out, some people said that Qi Yunshan’s bat fairy was showing up, and selling tea was a bat fairy. After Li Zhanshan learned of the news, he dispatched Ding to investigate. After a few days, orchids fired a bag of tea and sold them on the street. However, they were seen by Li Zhanshan's stewards. According to reports, Li Zhanshan said that selling tea is an orchid. The bat cave's tea tree was finally discovered, and the orchid girl was pushed down by the peddler. As a result, the tea tree was occupied by Li Zhanshan, and the tea was fried and given to the county official. The county official gave it to the prefect. The prefect had offered the emperor. After the emperor's tea tasting, Longyan Da Yue and the Yubi pro book, Qishan Yunwu had four characters. Li Zhanshan contributed tea and made a name for Qi Yunshan's Qipin Tea Supervisor. But in the spring of the following year, the tea tree died, and Li Zhanshan had no tea tribute. He could only fake the truth, and he was guilty of bullying the king and was killed. Later, in the stone cracks of the orchid drop rock, a forest of tea grows. The local people pick up the tea leaves. The quality is still the same after refining and processing. In order to commemorate the orchid girl, the name of this tea is named orchid tea.
