Later, after a young Taoist boy accidentally broke the “Stone Rooster” that crowed by the field, the magical crops that grew early and were harvested late no longer grew in Guigutian.
Guigutian sits at an altitude of 2,008 meters. Nourished by the water from the Huanglong Cave well by its side, the field is perpetually shrouded in swaying green mist. It kisses the blue sky and breathes in the clouds, giving it an air of profound mystery. In later times, the field was mainly planted with vegetables. Wisps of mist envelop the vegetable plots. Amid the fog, the fields occasionally reveal colorful blossoms or lush green, leafy vegetables, proudly showcasing their vibrant and abundant harvests.
