"Thousand Petals Lotus" is a beautiful legend and is widely circulated in Xishuangbanna area.

This scripture tells the story of a boy named Jidi who lost his father since he was a child and had to rely on his mother for life. While playing, Gidi collided with the local king. The king asked him to find the thousand-petaled lotus in his dream, otherwise he would be executed. With the help of King Shi Tian, Emperor Ji used his treasure to destroy the tiger spirit and assist the monkey king , and successively married the daughters of the two demon kings and obtained two immortal sticks. Afterwards, he said goodbye to his wife and continued to search for Qianyou Lotus. Later, with the guidance and help of the Great Buddha, Emperor Ji finally found the Thousand Petal Lotus. It turned out that this lotus is the Seventh Princess of Mengwu Dongban. As soon as she opened her mouth, a fragrant lotus would float out of her mouth. The sincere and brave Ji Emperor not only won the thousand-petal lotus, but also won the princess's love. Jidi and his wives returned to Mengbalanasi together. The brutal king coveted Princess Xianglian's beauty and had evil thoughts, and finally fell down and died on his back. Gideon was elected as the new king and reunited with his mother. From then on, the people also lived a peaceful and prosperous life.
