The design of ___X___ is derived from a legend: As the legend goes, a long time ago, the farm lands in ___Y____ ran dry, food could not be grown and the people experienced a famine. They could do nothing but pray to the heavens for luck. Moved by their piety, Five Immortals descended from the sky, riding on __Z__ with coats of different colors, each holding rice ears in its mouth. The Immortals gave the rice ears to the people and declared that the land would be free from famine.Afterwards, they disappeared into the sky. The five __Z__ that were left behind turn into stone. From that time on, __Y__ reaped a bumper harvest of grain every year and became a prosperous city.
The Statue of the __Z__ in __Y__'s Yue Xiu Park is a reminder of this legend and has, over the years, become the symbol of the city and one of its most well known landmarks.
