East Sea

  • Prince of the Sea

    On Guji Island in the East Sea, there grew a flower called the naidonghua ( or the flower that fears not winter). Its blossoms came in all colors and they never faded, whatever the season. No one lived on that island and few outsiders ever went there.

  • The two monks from Shu

    In the Emei Mountain in Shu (Sichuan Province) there were many monasteries. The monks in the big monasteries were rich, while those in the smaller ones were poor.
