寶石

The mountains in the south of Yunnan teemed with precious stones.

Since the mountains were high and steep. People could not climb up directly. In order to get the precious stones, the native people kept shooting at the monkeys, which were at the top of the mountains, with catapult.

Having been enraged, the monkeys, who were irascible and vengeful, threw stones at the foot of the mountain in groups. The stones thrown down were different in size, which people took home. After they threw off the common stones, what remained were the superior precious stones.
