It is said that originally, the rose was only green with its leaves and did not bloom. But then, why did it come to bear such bright and beautiful flowers? There is a touching story behind this in the land of the rose!

Long, long ago, there was a mountain peak with a spring of pure water at the top. People called this spring the 'Golden Spring' and the mountain the 'Water Mountain.'

There is a village at the foot of the Shuishan, where there are two young people, a man named Liu Lang and a woman named Cui Ping. Liu Lang lost his parents early in life, leaving him only a wooden knife and a pole, and made a living by chopping wood. Cui Ping, on the other hand, inherited a medicine digging shovel and a medicine basket from her parents when they passed away, and made a living by collecting medicine. Every evening, they both returned home with wood and medicine. Their common fate and life made them respect and love each other, help each other, and formed a friendship that was higher than the Shuishan and longer than the Jinquan. Soon, the two of them secretly decided to spend their lives together.

One day, Liu Lang was chopping wood on the east mountain, and Cui Ping was collecting medicine on the west mountain. Liu Lang felt a little tired, so he fell asleep by the wood pile. In his dream, he vaguely smelled a scent of flowers. Liu Lang sat up with a jerk and followed the scent of flowers. As he walked, he saw a crescent moon door ahead, with the words "Shui Shan Imperial Garden" written on it. Liu Lang thought to himself: I have been chopping wood in this Shui Shan since I was a child, and I have run through the seven caves and eight beams, 24 slopes, but I didn't know there was such a place. Why not go in and have a look at what scenery there is. When he pushed the door, he found that it was a garden full of blooming flowers and plants, and the wind blowing was fragrant. Liu Lang had no idea that this was a garden on earth of the Queen Mother of the West. Every May, when the flowers bloom, the Queen Mother brings all the fairies to play and enjoy the flowers. Liu Lang admired and praised as he enjoyed the garden, and he didn't realize that he had reached the center of the garden. He saw a flower bed made of crystal bricks, and the flower tree in the center of the bed was especially lovely. The red and powdery flowers were so much like Cui Ping's smiling face. Unfortunately, such a beautiful flower only bloomed once. Liu Lang looked at the flower again and again, and suddenly remembered that this was not a rose.The mountains are covered with roses, but they never bloom. How can these roses bloom so beautifully? By the way, I'll take this rose back and put it on Cui Ping's head. It will look beautiful, and she will definitely be happy. As Liu Lang was about to turn around and leave, two celestial soldiers, wearing armor and holding long spears, shouted and blocked his way: "Dare to pick the celestial flowers here!" Without saying a word, they tied up Liu Lang firmly and were about to take him away.

Moreover, upon returning from collecting herbs in the West Mountain, Cui Ping, who had lost sight of Liu Lang, began her search, calling out: "Liu Lang -- Liu Lang --" as she made her way to the summit. Suddenly, a voice from the cliff in front of her said: "Cui Ping sister, I'm here." Cui Ping looked up and saw Liu Lang, his hands bound, standing on the cliff, with two stern celestial soldiers standing behind him. Cui Ping ran towards Liu Lang, crying and calling out. The celestial soldiers shouted loudly, saying: "He trespassed into the Imperial Garden of the Queen Mother of the West and dared to pluck the only rose in the world, committing a heinous crime. I am here to take him for a life sentence of hard labor." Hearing this, Cui Ping cried desperately: "You can't take him away, give me back my Liu Lang." The soldiers chuckled: "Your Liu Lang, unless all the roses in the mountains bloom." With that, he pointed to the cliff with his lance, and a thunderous roar and a dazzling flash of light passed by. Cui Ping fainted on the cliff.

I don't know how long it took, but Cui Ping slowly came to her senses, looking at the empty cliff top, she called out "Liu Lang," and then began to cry sadly. Cui Ping was a girl with a sense of justice and determination. In order to make all the roses on the mountain bloom, and to have her beloved Liu Lang return to her side, she would go up the mountain every night to carry golden spring water in a bucket, watering the roses until the moonlight covered the mountain. She would return late, with the stones on the mountain road wearing away her feet, and the thorns on the slope tearing her clothes. Her shining sweat and bright red blood had dripped all over the mountains and stone walls. She watered and watered until the tenth spring. One day, Cui Ping was about to go up the mountain to water, and when she opened the door, she saw that all over the mountain were bright flowers, like strings of red agate, like clusters of fire. The roses had bloomed, and Cui Ping was thrilled. She hurriedly picked a bunch of roses, shouting, "Liu Lang brother, the roses are blooming!"Rdquo. Run towards the cliff of the East Mountain Ridge, just ran to the cliff, when I heard a loud thunderous sound, followed by a dazzling light, in the flash, a shadow floated down from the cliff, Cui Ping looked carefully, it was the long-lost Liu Lang back. Cui Ping immediately rushed into Liu Lang's arms. Liu Lang stroked the scars on Cui Ping's body, looking at the roses blooming in the mountains, tears like broken beads, dripped on Cui Ping's cheeks, dripped on the tender rose flowers.

From then on, the roses on Mount Shuihan bloomed brightly every spring. Later, to remember the young couple who had toiled hard for the blooming of the roses, Mount Shuihan was named Cuiping Mountain, and the golden spring on the mountain was called Liu Lang Spring. A pagoda was also built on the cliff face in their honor. It is said that Liu Lang and Cui Ping both became immortals after their deaths, becoming the flower gods in the heavens, in charge of all the flowers on earth. Every year when the roses bloom, the couple returns to admire them. At night, when the silence is deep, one can still hear them whispering to each other among the rose bushes below the pagoda.
