The Legend of Yi Girls Ashima and Haig in Yunnan;

A long time ago, in Aldis, a beautiful girl was born to a poor Grumman family. My parents want her daughter to be as precious as gold, so they named her "Ashima", which means gold. Ashima has grown up and is as beautiful as a beautiful Yimei flower.

She can sing and dance, and many boys like her. She fell in love with Hei, the orphan of her childhood, unless he was not married. One torch festival, she was engaged to Ahei. Ah Zhi, the son of the rich man Bubala, also took a fancy to Ashima, so he went to a matchmaker for matchmaking, but Ashima didn't want to. Bubala's family took advantage of Ahei's herding sheep in the distance to send someone to take Ashima away and force her to marry A Zhi. Ashima refused to do anything, was whipped and put in a black prison.

Ahei heard the news and came to save Ashima day and night. He won the match with Chi. Hot Bubala became angry from embarrassment and ordered his servant to release three tigers to pounce on Ah Hei, who shot him with three arrows and rescued Ashima. The vicious hot Bubala and his son refused to give up and colluded with Cliff God. When Ashima and Ahei crossed the river, the flood swept Ashima away.

The rescue of the young girl of Yingshan Song in Twelve Cliffs turned Ashima into a stone peak and an echo god. From now on, whatever you call her, she will answer you. Her voice and her shadow remain in this world forever. The legendary story of Ashima has also been adapted into movies and large-scale musicals, which have aroused strong repercussions after being shown and performed at home and abroad, and Ashima's story has also been widely circulated.
