Zhao Zhouqiao's classic legend

Zhao Zhouqiao, I'm sure you've all heard of it, so have you heard of the legend of Zhao Zhouqiao? The following is the classic Zhao Zhouqiao legend I compiled for you. Welcome to reading.

Zhao Zhouqiao's classic legend, ancient Zhaozhou, is now Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province. There are two stone bridges in Zhaozhou, one in the south and the other in the west. The Dashiqiao in the south of the city looks like Changhong on the river, which is magnificent.

According to folklore, this big stone bridge was built by Luban, and the small stone bridge in the west of the city looks like a little white dragon floating on the water. It is said that this small stone bridge was built by Luban's sister Lu Jiang. These two bridges are well built! There is "Little Cowherd" on the stage, and there is such a lyric: Grandpa Lu Ban built a stone bridge in Zhaozhou, and the sage left a jade railing. Zhang rode on the donkey bridge, and Chai pulled the cart to roll the ditch. ? This is the legend of Lubanxiu Zhao Zhouqiao.

It is said that Lu Ban and his sister traveled around the world and went to Zhaozhou. A white Jiaohe blocked the way. People push carts, carry burdens, sell onions, sell garlic, ride horses to catch exams, and pull donkeys to catch meetings, making a scene and vying to cross the river into the city. There are only two boats swaying from side to side in the river, and few people can cross it for a long time.

Lu Ban saw it and asked, Why not build a bridge over the river? The river is wide, the water is deep and the waves are urgent. Who dares to repair it? Even if there are lanterns, there is no such craftsman! ? When Lu Ban heard this, he reached an agreement with his sister Lu Jiang to build two bridges for pedestrians.

Lu Ban said to his sister. Let's build a big stone bridge first, and then a small one! ?

Lu Jiang said: OK! ?

Ruban said:? Repairing the bridge is a hard job, don't be afraid to suffer! ?

Lu Jiang said: Not afraid! ?

Ruban said:? Don't be afraid. Your heart is stupid and your hands are clumsy. If you are afraid of suffering, you will be in trouble. ? This sentence made Lu Jiang unhappy. She said unconvinced. Don't think I am clumsy. Now, we will fix it separately. You fix the big one, I'll fix the small one. Let's race you to see who can fix it quickly and well. ?

Ruban said:? Ok, let's have a game! When will the construction start and be completed?

Lu Jiang said: As soon as it gets dark, the stars start to work and the chickens call it a day. ? It's a deal. Brother and sister prepare separately.

Luban leisurely headed west towards the mountains. When Lu Jiang arrived in the west of the city, he hurried to do it. As she repaired it, she thought, don't be busy, I have to pull you down. Sure enough, the small stone bridge was repaired after midnight.

Then she quietly ran to the south of the city to see what her brother had done. When I came to the south of the city, there was not even a bridge on the river. Luban is not by the river either. She thinks her brother will lose this time. I can see when I turn my head, on the Taihang Mountain in the west, a man is driving a flock of sheep to jump down the mountain.

Looking closer, it turned out that her brother was driving the sheep. Where is the shepherd? The stone as white as snow and as smooth as jade has arrived. When I reached the river, I turned into a processed stone in the blink of an eye. There are square bridge foundation stones, rectangular bridge deck stones, crescent-shaped arch ring stones and beautiful railings. Beautiful sentry boxes, all used on bridges, have everything.

Lu Jiang was shocked when he saw it. How strong it would be to build a bridge with such a good stone! In contrast, the one I made is not good, and I need to find a way to remedy it quickly. It's too late to rebuild, so work hard to catch up with him in carving! She quietly returned to the west of the city and began to work. On the railing, she carved Pangu Tiankai and Dayu to control water, and also carved Cowherd and Weaver Girl and Feng Dan facing the sun. What rare birds and animals, exotic flowers and herbs, carved like real ones. Carving birds can spread their wings and fly, carving flowers and smelling incense.

She was satisfied with this exquisite sculpture and ran to the south of the city to peek at Lu Ban. At first glance, I let out a cry of surprise. How did Changhong in the sky fall on the river? Looking carefully, it turned out that my brother built the bridge, except for the last sentry on the bridge. She was afraid that her fraternity would win the bet, so she played a joke on him. She squatted behind Liu Kezi, pinching her throat and stretching her neck. Goo goo? Learn to crow. Her cry attracted chickens from nearby families. When Lu Ban heard the cock crow, he quickly put the last sentry on the bridge, and the bridge was completed.

The two bridges, one large and one small, are very beautiful. The big stone bridge in Luban is magnificent and durable; The small stone bridge built by Lu Jiang is exquisite and beautiful.

Zhaozhou built two bridges overnight, and the next day it caused a sensation in the nearby prefectures and counties. Everyone saw it, and everyone praised it. Skillful craftsmen come here to learn skills, and girls with good skills come here to draw patterns. People who come to visit every day are like running water.

This miracle soon reached the ears of Zhang, a fairy from Penglai Fairy Island. Zhang does not believe it, he thinks that Lu Ban has such a great skill! I asked Master Chai to come and have a look. Zhang is riding a little black donkey and Chai Wang is pushing a unicycle. When they came to Zhaozhou Dashiqiao, they happened to meet Lu Ban standing on the bridge, watching the passers-by laughing!

Zhang asked Lu Ban:? Did you build this bridge? Lu Ban said. Yes, why? Zhang pointed to the little black donkey and Chai Daguan's wheelbarrow and said? Can it stand when we cross the bridge? Lu Ban gave them a look and said: Mules are in Malaysia, and gold, cars and silver are ok. Can't you live in this old car in Xiao Lv?

Hearing this, Zhang felt that his breath was too loud, so he used magic to gather the sun and the moon together and put them in the wallet on the donkey's back. The sun was on the left and the moon was on the right. Master Chai also used magic to gather the five famous mountains and put them in the car. They laughed and pushed the donkey onto the bridge. As soon as I got on the bridge, I watched it flickering. Lu Ban quickly jumped under the bridge, raised his right hand to hold the bridge and saved it.

When they passed by, Zhang looked back at the bridge and said to Princess Chai. No weirdo praised it. The bridge built by Luban is really a Chinese odyssey. ? Chai princess nodded and said yes, pointing to Luban who had just returned to the bridge with her thumb. Ruban looked at their backs and thought, these two are not simple! ?

Now, on the bridge deck of Zhaozhou Stone Bridge, there are still footprints of riding a donkey and ditch marks rolled by Chai Wang's cart. Anyone who goes to Zhaozhou Shiqiao can see that there is a big handprint under the bridge, but now it is not clear.

Zhao Zhouqiao Brief Introduction Zhao Zhouqiao, located in Zhao County, Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, was built in 605 AD and designed and built by famous craftsman Li Chun. With a history of 1400 years, it is the earliest and most complete stone arch bridge in the world today. Zhao Zhouqiao, also known as Anji Bridge, is located on the Xiao He River in Zhao County, Hebei Province, with a length of 50.82m, a span of 37.02m and a height of 7.23m.. 196 1 was listed as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units in the State Council, and 1999 was listed as a provincial patriotic education base.

Zhao Zhouqiao was built from the 15th year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty to the first year of Daye, supervised by craftsman Li Chun, with a history of 1400 years. This bridge is strong and magnificent. The total length is 64.4 meters and the vault is 9 meters wide. The design of the bridge completely conforms to scientific principles, and the construction technology is unique. Zhang, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, said in the inscription of Dashiqiao in Zhaozhou? Do strange things, and people don't know what they are doing. .

Overall, it is a single arch bridge. The arch was 37.02 meters long and was the longest stone arch in the world at that time. Bridge opening is not an ordinary semicircle, but like a bow, with a flat and wide bridge deck. Flat arch? , both land and water transportation, convenient for the operation of horses and chariots. This stone arch consists of 28 arch rings, each of which can stand independently to form a whole, which is convenient for independent construction and maintenance. Such a long-span flat arch has great horizontal thrust on the abutment and is difficult to construct. However, the abutment is a shallow and small ordinary rectangle with a thickness of only 1.549 m, which is made of five rows of stones. Its foundation is sub-clay, and its bearing capacity is small. It is rare in the world to build such a small abutment and such a large-span stone arch bridge on such a foundation.

A three-way ticket to Zhao Zhouqiao? Less than a semicircle

China used to call the curved bridge opening, doorway and other buildings? Vouchers? . Generally, tickets for stone bridges are mostly semicircular. However, the span of Zhao Zhouqiao is very large, with 37.04 meters from one end to the other. If the coupon surface is semicircular, the height of the bridge hole is1852m. In this way, crossing the bridge is like crossing a hill, which is very laborious. Zhao Zhouqiao's certificate is an arc smaller than a semicircle, which not only reduces the height of the bridge, but also reduces the stone and labor for repairing the bridge, and the bridge body is very beautiful, much like Changhong in the sky.

? Fight? Empty and illusory

The two shoulders of a coupon are called. Fight? . Generally, the collision of stone bridges is made of stone, but the collision in Zhao Zhouqiao is not made of stone, but one or two arc-shaped coupons are built on each shoulder of coupons. In this way, four coupons were added to the bridge body, which saved about 180 cubic meters of stone and reduced the bridge weight by about 500 tons. Moreover, when the river rises, part of the water can flow downwards from the small ticket, which can not only make the water flow smooth, but also reduce the impact of flood on the bridge and ensure the safety of the bridge.
