One day, the sun was like a fire, and the elephant with a long nose was burnt. The long-nosed elephant can't help complaining, "Really," it seems that the world is really not a good place. I am so thirsty. If I keep baking, I'll turn into a baked salt water elephant. "He thought, walking and looking for water. Suddenly, he saw a river flowing not far away. He quickly came to the Lijiang River, lowered his long nose and took a few sips of water. The water in Lijiang River is cool to quench thirst. The trunk feels good. Drink more. After drinking the water, he stood by the river and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Guilin. Not far away, I saw mountains rising from the ground, disconnected from each other, and thousands of images; On the mountain, there are strange peaks and rocks. Not shocked, the long-nosed elephant repeatedly praised the wonders of nature and said to himself, "It seems that this world is really a good place. "
Later, the elephant with a long nose returned to heaven, but he still remembered the beautiful scenery of Guilin. One day, he sneaked into Guilin while the soldiers guarding the city gate were not paying attention. He enjoyed the beautiful scenery by the Lijiang River, thought of a boring paradise, and was tired, so he decided to settle here.
The Jade Emperor was furious when he learned that Long Nose was going to descend to earth privately, and sent Li Tianwang to arrest him. When Li Tianwang came to Guilin, he saw an elephant with a long nose fishing by the river and advised him to change his mind and go back to heaven. But the long-nosed elephant has made up his mind and refused to go back. So, Li Tianwang held the elephant trunk with a pagoda by the Lijiang River, and it became Elephant Trunk Mountain.
