On the western shore of Qingshuiao on Xiyin there is a spit of land projecting into the sea that, from a distance, resembles a crouching crocodile. The local people have a legend to the effect that in olden times a crocodile followed schools of fish here and frequently ravaged the area, until finally the fishermen could stand it no longer. Fortunately, the Jade Emperor helped out by conquering the crocodile, whose spirit migrated to the western shore of Qingshuiao and gave it its present appearance.
