The outstanding people of Datong have left us many folk stories that have been sung through the ages, and the legend of Yulong Cave is among them.
Legend has it that a long time ago, at the foot of Qifeng Mountain, there lived a kind-hearted and good-hearted vendor. He saw an injured snake, cured it and raised it. Finally, he sent it back to the mountain and warned the white snake not to hurt pedestrians and animals.
More than ten years have passed, and pythons on the mountain eat people, and vendors also eat people. That's his white snake. He snapped, "disobedient beast, how dare you hurt people?" When the white snake saw the rescuer, she turned her head and left. When it goes to the village, it is called back to the village.
The peddler chased after him, and the python passed by a river, thirsty and drunk, and drank the river dry. This is the dry river today. The white snake finally fled to the mountain and got into a hole halfway up the mountain, which is today's Yulong Cave.
Vendors keep watch at the mouth of the cave every day to protect people's safety. Later generations molded his skeleton into a statue and dedicated it permanently. Since then, the story of Yulong Cave has been passed down from generation to generation. Later generations carved ladders along the mountain and built temples along the cave to commemorate the peddler.
