Story:
In ancient times, in a narrow section of the Yellow River's Sanmenxia Gorge, a mountain stood firmly in the swift currents, obstructing the river's flow.
During Yu the Great's flood control efforts, he carved out wider channels on both sides of the river. As a result, this Dizhu Mountain stood like a solitary pillar amidst the raging torrents.
The Sanmenxia Gorge is divided into three gates: Renmen (Human Gate), Shenmen (God Gate), and Guimen (Ghost Gate), with Guimen being the most perilous. Yet, Dizhu Mountain remained majestically upright in the midst of the rapid currents.
