Sinking city myth (Chinese)
The Sinking City Myth is one of some great flood themes in Chinese folklore. This theme have these specific characteristics: one or two survivors, blood crying statue, and the whole city along with its citizens were sinking. The survivor(s) was being saved by the gods because of his/her benevolent acts; may be an old lady or a devoted son. The blood crying statue was often a stone lion statue, or sometimes tortoise statue. This theme is often confused with another flood theme which greatly increase the sunken area from a city into the whole world.
==Records of Searching for Spirits==
''Records of Searching for Spirits'' () is a collection of stories from 4th CE which was compiled by Gan Bao from East Jin Dynasty. This literature contains two versions of the legend of the sunken city, each in Chapter 13 and 20. The story from Chapter 20 narrates an old benevolent woman whose being told that her city would be sank after the eyes of the tortoise statue in her city turned red. Everyday she checked its eyes until one day a naughty kid colored the eyes into red. The old woman, with the help of a dragon, escaped the city just before the city sank beneath the water and become a lake.〔
