在很久以(yi)(yi)前,淝河(he)岸(an)畔,小孤(gu)山下(xia),有(you)位聰(cong)明美麗的(de)姑(gu)娘。她(ta)以(yi)(yi)打魚(yu)(yu)為生,人們叫她(ta)漁姑(gu)。有(you)年夏季,一日(ri)漁姑(gu)獨自架(jia)船,劃著雙漿,從西淝河(he)上(shang)順游而下(xia),準備(bei)劃到(dao)(dao)下(xia)游捕魚(yu)(yu)。魚(yu)(yu)船剛找到(dao)(dao)硤山口(kou)時(shi),天上(shang)突(tu)然烏(wu)云翻滾,雷霆轟(hong)鳴,狂風大作(zuo),瓢潑大雨(yu)似傾如注,下(xia)個不停。漁姑(gu)將船劃到(dao)(dao)河(he)邊停泊避雨(yu),雨(yu)聲嘩(hua)(hua)嘩(hua)(hua)如同催(cui)眠之曲,孤(gu)獨的(de)漁姑(gu)不由(you)雙目欲(yu)(yu)閉,睡意綿(mian)綿(mian),緩緩進(jin)入(ru)夢(meng)鄉。正(zheng)(zheng)在夢(meng)甜似蜜的(de)時(shi)候,一個赤(chi)體嬰(ying)兒(er)(er)撲進(jin)她(ta)懷里(li)。她(ta)正(zheng)(zheng)欲(yu)(yu)問是誰家的(de)寶寶,只聽一聲霹(pi)靂巨響把她(ta)從夢(meng)中驚醒,她(ta)忙張目起身,恰時(shi)一條紅尾金鱗大鯉(li)(li)魚(yu)(yu)從河(he)水(shui)中躥進(jin)魚(yu)(yu)船里(li),蹦到(dao)(dao)她(ta)面前,被(bei)漁姑(gu)捉(zhuo)住。漁姑(gu)正(zheng)(zheng)饑腸轆(lu)轆(lu),把大鯉(li)(li)魚(yu)(yu)煮吃(chi)(chi)了。漁姑(gu)自從吃(chi)(chi)了這條鯉(li)(li)魚(yu)(yu)后,肚腹漸漸脹(zhang)大,日(ri)日(ri)增高,后生下(xia)一黑膚(fu)男孩,取(qu)名(ming)龍(long)兒(er)(er)。
人們便叫(jiao)這魚為“懷胎魚”。龍(long)(long)兒長大后,成了(le)一條(tiao)黑龍(long)(long)。他在淮(huai)河里踏(ta)波(bo)逐浪,呼(hu)風(feng)(feng)喚雨。漁(yu)(yu)姑對(dui)龍(long)(long)兒說: “你是龍(long)(long),要(yao)(yao)為民(min)造福,要(yao)(yao)及時(shi)行(xing)云(yun)布(bu)雨,讓天(tian)(tian)下風(feng)(feng)調雨順,五谷(gu)豐(feng)登,讓民(min)眾(zhong)(zhong)過幸福的(de)(de)生活。千(qian)萬(wan)不(bu)可做危害民(min)眾(zhong)(zhong)的(de)(de)事!”小黑龍(long)(long)非常(chang)聽(ting)母(mu)親漁(yu)(yu)姑的(de)(de)話,只為民(min)做有(you)益的(de)(de)事,對(dui)民(min)眾(zhong)(zhong)有(you)害的(de)(de)事一件不(bu)做。所(suo)以(yi)淮(huai)河兩岸風(feng)(feng)調雨順,年(nian)年(nian)豐(feng)收,百姓豐(feng)衣足食。民(min)眾(zhong)(zhong)唱(chang)道“走千(qian)走萬(wan),不(bu)如淮(huai)河兩岸”,來贊揚家鄉(xiang)富(fu)足美(mei)好。這歌謠直(zhi)流(liu)傳至今。勤勞(lao)慈(ci)祥(xiang)的(de)(de)漁(yu)(yu)姑,教(jiao)子有(you)方,被玉皇(huang)大帝封為龍(long)(long)母(mu)娘(niang)(niang)娘(niang)(niang),后升(sheng)天(tian)(tian)成仙。黑龍(long)(long)為孝順母(mu)親,也(ye)隨母(mu)親上天(tian)(tian)宮去了(le)。
