It is said in the Guanyin Sutra of the High King that this Bodhisattva can save all sufferings. If you recite this sutra 1000 times in an emergency, you can turn death into life. According to "Eighteen Years of Kaiyuan Buddhism", Sun Jingde, a scholar in Dingzhou, made a statue of Guanyin during Tian Ping's reign in the Northern Wei Dynasty (534 ~ 537), which was often worshipped and later led by thieves. The night before his execution, he dreamed that a monk came to teach him to recite this sutra, but when he woke up, he recited it a thousand times.

According to legend, this Guanyin blessed Tang Sanzang to learn from the West.

According to Buddha's records, during Tang Xianzong's reign, Shaanxi people were good at riding and shooting, and had never heard of the name of the Three Treasures. Guanyin Bodhisattva immediately became Ma Lang's wife to educate local residents, so it was called "Ma Lang House".
After Guanyin Bodhisattva gained the Tao, Guanyin once learned that there were many foreigners living in Jinshatan, Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province, who didn't know manners and education, so she changed to be a fisherman and came to a small town. It happened that the market in the town was very busy, so I was carrying a bamboo basket with two fish tails in it, swinging among the fish sellers. They suddenly saw a beautiful fisherman selling fish, so they hurried to buy fish. But the fisherman asked them, "What do you buy fish for?" Everyone said, "Of course, I went back to cook and eat." The fisherman smiled and said, "I can't sell this fish to you for cooking, I can only sell it to you for release." Hearing this, everyone refused, and no one was willing to spend money to buy a fish and then let it go. As a result, the fisherman stood for a day and didn't buy either fish. The next morning, the fishermen came again and still insisted on selling them and releasing them. As a result, no one wants to buy it. It's just that a man named Ma Lang began to pay attention to fishermen. He found that the fisherman sold the same two fish yesterday, but the fish was still alive and kicking after two days out of water. It's really incredible, but I really can't see anything.
Soon, the fishermen on the Golden Beach, especially the bachelors, saw that the fisherman's wife was really beautiful and came to propose marriage and tried to marry her. The fisherman smiled and said, "With so many people, who should I marry?" ? Tell you what, I'll teach you to chant, and I'll marry someone who learned it in a day. "Everyone thought it was feasible and agreed. The fisherman taught them to recite "Pumenpin", and a day later, half of them recited it. The fisherman added, "Still no, Pumenpin is just a beginner, and he can't tell the winner from the loser. I'll teach you to read the Diamond Sutra again, and I'll marry whoever reads it overnight. " A dozen people agreed. So the fisherman taught them to recite the Diamond Sutra. The next day, only three or four people could recite it completely. The others had to leave gloomily. "The fisherman said to the others.
Don't worry, the final outcome has not been decided yet. I have a Mahayana treasure "Hokkekyo" here. I will marry whoever can recite it in three days. "As a result, after three days, Ma Lang was the only one who knew it by heart. So the fisherman promised to marry Ma Lang. But on the wedding day, the bride died for no reason, and the body quickly rotted. Malang was sad, but there was nothing he could do. Strange as it is, I still have to bury the body. Since then, whenever Ma Lang is free, he often recites the three classics taught by fishermen, and he has learned a lot.
After Guanyin Bodhisattva got away, after a period of observation, she found that Ma Lang had begun to realize the Tao, so she became an old monk again, to enlighten Ma Lang, and to talk with him about classics and give directions. Later, I told him that the fisherman he married was changed by Guanyin Bodhisattva. If you don't believe me, you can dig out the tomb curtain and have a look. Ma Lang was dubious and really went to dig a grave. There is really no body in it, only a pair of gold collarbones. The old monk said, "Believe it now. Bodhisattva incarnates as a fisherman to enlighten you. Since she has taught you three classics, you should preach Buddhism and never let the Bodhisattva down. " Ma Lang nodded repeatedly, and suddenly the monk disappeared. Ma Lang knew that the Bodhisattva must have touched him again. When he went back, he changed his three thatched cottages into an hall and made a statue of Bodhisattva as a sacrifice. He still looked like a fisherman's daughter-in-law, so people called it "fish basket Guanyin".
Guanyin in Fish Basket is one of the portraits of thirty-three guanyin. She is carrying a bamboo basket on her back and a fish in her hand, and she is still a folk young woman carrying a fish basket. Because she is Ma Lang's wife, she is called Guanyin. Malang Guanfu Drink is another name for fish basket Guanyin. He often rides a white lion and poses as a fire. His four arms are divided into moji fish, white lucky bird, crested and elegant. Worship by Tantric Sect, showing the meaning of fearlessness. Or the body of Vishnu in Table 33. The wonderful lotus sutra says: "If there is a living thing in the country, it should be said that the Buddha Guanyin is now the body of the Samana in Kunming." This bodhisattva incarnates the power of Guanyin, making all beings fearless.
