Emperor Gan Tian and Lord Fu DeEmperor Gantian's original name was Boyi Gong, and it was more common in Chaozhou's folk customs to worship gods. Boyi was good at animal husbandry and hunting. He was appointed by Shun as Yu and was in charge of the mountains and swamps. He helped Yu control the water and was put in an important position by Yu. However, he later competed with Qi for the throne (one said that he declined) and finally failed to become the emperor. Later generations worshipped him as the Mountain God Uncle because he was in charge of the mountains and swamps and had meritorious achievements in controlling the water. They respected him as the Great Emperor of Heaven. In the mountain villages or mountains, the villagers would build small temples in specific places to worship him. Some mountain villages or plain villages would also build temples to worship his golden body. His image was mostly sitting on a throne or riding on a tiger, holding a sword. It was said that the tiger in the mountains was under his control.
Lord Fude was popular in the north and south. It was developed from the ancient god of society. It was also called the earth grandfather and many other names. It was the god who managed the land. In the Han people, it was called the "Fude God". In Chaoshan area, they were called Lord Fu De or "Uncle" or "Old Uncle". There were many legends about him. Some said that his surname was Zhang Fu De and that he was an honest official. Others said that he was a servant of a scholar-bureaucrat in the Zhou Dynasty. His image was almost always white beard, white hair, smiling, dressed as a local official, holding a gold ingot in one hand and a ruyi or crutch in the other.
In the folk worship of gods, some people would confuse the two. Sometimes, they would mistake the Great Emperor of Heaven, Boyi Gong, as the martial earth god who was in charge of mountains and swamps, and the God of Virtue, Boye Gong, as the civil earth god who was in charge of plains. However, in fact, the two had different functions. They were the mountain god and the earth god.
