较早有关重阳节的传说,见于梁朝吴均的《续齐谐记》:汝南桓景随费长房游学累年,长房谓曰:“九月九日,汝家中当有灾。宜急去,令家人各作绛囊,盛茱萸,以系臂,登高饮菊花酒,此祸可除。”景如言,齐家登山。夕还,见鸡犬牛羊一时暴死。长房闻之曰:“此可代也。”今世人九日登高饮酒,妇人带茱萸囊,盖始于此。
后来在民间大致发展成若干版本的传说,其中一种是这样的:
相传在东汉时期,汝河有个瘟魔,只要它一出现,家家就有人病倒,天天有人丧命,这一带的百姓受尽了瘟魔的蹂躏。一场瘟疫夺走了青年桓景的父母,他自己也因病差点儿丧了命。病愈之后,他辞别了心爱的妻子和父老乡亲,决心出去访仙学艺,为民除掉瘟魔。桓景四处访师寻道,访遍各地的名山高士,终于打听到在东方有一座最古老的山,山上有一个法力无边的仙长,桓景不畏艰险和路途的遥远,在仙鹤指引下,终于找到了那座高山,找到了那个有着神奇法力的仙长,仙长为他的精神所感动,终于收留了桓景,并且教给他降妖剑术,还赠他一把降妖宝剑。桓景废寝忘食苦练,终于练出了一身非凡的武艺。
这一天仙长把桓景叫到跟前说:“明天是九月初九,瘟魔又要出来作恶,你本领已经学成,应该回去为民除害了”。仙长送给他一包茱萸叶,一盅菊花酒,并且密授辟邪用法,让他骑着仙鹤赶回家去。
桓景回到家乡,在九月初九的早晨,按仙长的叮嘱把乡亲们领到了附近的一座山上,发给每人一片茱萸叶,一盅菊花酒,做好了降魔的准备。中午时分,随着几声怪叫,瘟魔冲出汝河,但是瘟魔刚扑到山下,突然闻到阵阵茱萸奇香和菊花酒气,便戛然止步,脸色突变,这时桓景手持降妖宝剑追下山来,几个回合就把温魔刺死剑下,从此九月初九登高避疫的风俗年复一年地流传下来。
后来人们就把重阳节登高的风俗看作是免灾避祸的活动。另外,在中原人的传统观念中,双九还是生命长久、健康长寿的意思,所以后来到1989年重阳节被立为老人节。Earlier the festival legends in the Wu Liang Dynasty, "Qi continued resonance in mind: Ru'nan Huan Jing with the travel expenses of leinian, Fei Wei said:" in September 9th, when a disaster you home. Be anxious to go, so the family of the Jiang Sheng capsule, dogwood, to climb the arm, drink chrysanthemum wine, in addition to this disaster." As king, Qijia mountain. We also see a dead chicken dog, cattle and sheep. Fei Wen said: "this generation can also." The world nine high alcohol consumption, the woman with cystic Zhuyu, covered at this.
later in the general development of folk into some versions of the legend, one of them is this:
down in the Eastern Han Dynasty, a Ruhe devil, as long as it appeared, every family will have people sick, every day someone died, people in this area suffered the ravages of the devil. A plague killed the young Huan Jing's parents, his illness has almost lost his life. He recovered, he said goodbye to his beloved wife and his people, determined to visit Xian conservatory out, the people get rid of the devil. Huan Jing four division seeking visit, visit the mountains around, finally heard an old mountain in the East, there is a study on the mountain boundless supernatural power, Huan Jing Buweijianxian and distant journey, under the guidance of the crane, finally found that mountain, which have found a the magical powers of the immortals long, long cents for his spirit, finally took a king, and he taught spirit swordplay, he also donated a spirit sword. Huan Jing and hard, and finally out of an extraordinary Wu Yi.
this day to study Huan Jing call and said: "tomorrow is the beginning of September nine, the devil and evil will come out, you have ability to learn, should go back for the people". H gave him a packet of dogwood leaves, a cup of chrysanthemum wine, and evil secret delegated usage, let him ride the crane back home.
Huan Jing returned home, nine in the morning at the beginning of September, according to the study told the villagers to a nearby hill, to each a piece of dogwood leaves, a cup of chrysanthemum wine, well overcome preparation. At noon, with some weird sound, blast out Ruhe devil, but the devil just PuDao hill, suddenly smell Zhuyu strange sweet and chrysanthemum wine, will face sudden screeching halt, at this time, Huan Jing holding lock sword down to recover, several rounds of the temperature magic sword stabbing to death, from this September at the beginning of nine climbing and epidemics of Customs handed down year after year.
then people put the Double Ninth Festival Customs disaster is seen as a refuge activities. In addition, in the Central Plains of traditional values, two or nine lives a long, healthy longevity mean, so later to 1989 festival will be established as a festival for the elderly.
