Lang-Baw-Baw

In fairy mountains, fate decides my stay, By nature's flow, I turn to stone each day. Seeking truth with purpose, unaware of the length, With steadfast heart, I carve my path, my strength. Long ago, there was a Daoist who dedicated his life to capturing yaoguais. During one encounter with a frog guai, he traveled far and wide, seeking their traces. Along the way, he gained many opportunities and became a highly skilled Daoist. He also came to understand that all beings had their own ways of survival and were no longer obsessed over capturing yaoguais. Instead, he grew curious about their lives. One day, as he passed by Mount Huaguo, he was captivated by the beautiful scenery and decided to release the tadpole that had accompanied him on his journey back into the mountain stream. Unexpectedly, as soon as he let the little frog guai go, several bolts of lightning struck down, revealing a group of armored celestial soldiers. The Daoist thought he had caused some trouble and was about to apologize when the celestial soldiers attacked him without a word. He quickly drew his sword to defend himself but was gradually overwhelmed by their numbers. Just as he was about to be seriously injured, a large stone frog leaped from the riverbank. Unafraid of the flashing blades, and even the lightning summoned by the soldiers, the stone frog helped the Daoist fend off his opponents. The Daoist approached the riverbank and realized that the little frog guai he had released had brought the stone frog to rescue him. He was deeply grateful. From that day on, the Daoist no longer aspired to become immortal. Instead, he frequently visited the frog guais, asking them for tadpoles to release into various beautiful mountains and rivers. People began to call him the Frog Immortal.
