Legend of Baishi Worship in "Beiyue Temple"

In ancient times, there was a brave Naxi hunter named Abu Gaoding, who was extremely strong. Once he was hunting on the Yulong Mountain and chased a white deer. The white deer ran behind a white stone and disappeared. The hunter was very surprised, so he carried the white stone home on his back. When he arrived at the present Beiyue Temple, he couldn't carry it anymore. People believed that this was the holy spirit of the Jade Dragon Mountain God, so they set up a statue and built a temple here to worship it. The god was named "Sanduo", which was nicknamed "Enpu Sanduo" in Naxi dialect, which means Sanduo ancestor, namely Lijiang Dam Protection God.

It is said that from then on, people often see a god riding a horse, wearing white armor, and holding a white spear appearing and appearing to protect the lives of the Naxi people. Over time, the "Sanduo" became the embodiment and god of the Yulong Snow Mountain, and became the national hero and greatest patron saint of the Naxi people.
