Dragon king giant tail scanning balance
Looking at the lake platform at the top of Tianping Mountain, it is as flat as a knife, hence the name Tian Ping. Legend has it that the daughter of the Dragon King of the East China Sea married the Little Dragon of Jinghe, and she was very honored. One day, she happened to meet Liu Yi, the top scholar in Suzhou, and asked him to send a book to her father. After receiving the letter, the Dragon King of the East China Sea angrily fought the Jinghe Dragon in Tianping Mountain. The dragon king swung his huge tail and swept Tian Pingfeng, where Xiaolong occupied Jinghe River, and swept his head away with Tian Pingfeng, so the top of the mountain became flat. In Wengxiang Village, northeast of dongshan town, Wuxian County, there is a well-known "Liu Yijing", which has been passed down to this day as the remains of the fairy tale "Biography of Liu Yi". There are also Dragon Lady Temple and Baimadi Temple nearby. It is said that Liu Yi was once a white horse here when he handed books. There is a stone tablet beside the well, which was inscribed by Wang Hao, a great scholar in the fifth year of Ming Dynasty (15 10). The well circle is covered with moss and the spring water is sweet and clear. In ancient times, it was said that "drought and flood have no surplus and drought, and the wind is not turbid", which is one of the famous springs in Dongshan. It is said that Liu Yijing in Jiangsu and Hunan are connected, and the Dragon Palace is underground.
Because the top of Tianping Mountain is high above, surrounded by white clouds. The whole process of mountaineering is divided into "three white clouds" up, middle and down, and there is a saying that "climbing a mountain is like climbing a bridge and stepping on white clouds", so it is also called Baiyun Mountain. There are Fan Zhongyan's ancestral tomb and Fan Zhongyan's remains in Beiwu, Shandong Province, so it is also called "Fan Fenshan". Tang Yin, a painter in the Ming Dynasty, wrote in the poem Tianping Mountain: "How high Tianping Mountain is, the rocks are abrupt; The wind returns to the pine valley, the smoke is green, and the flying spring washes over the flat bridge. Thousand peaks and ten thousand peaks are like a grip, standing side by side; The sunset glow in front of Gong Fan Temple is reflected, and Cui Yun is dark and wet. "
Three wonders of balance
Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, Tianping Mountain has been famous for its maple, spring and stone.
You must, Feng. Maple trees in the mountains become forests, and the blue sea becomes shadows. The ancient maple was collected from Fujian by Fan Yunlin, the 17th grandson of Fan Zhongyan in Wanli period of Ming Shenzong, and there were 380 original plants. For hundreds of years, new maples have been everywhere, the biggest one is 10 feet high, and the branches need to be folded by two people, such as the dragon reaching the sky; The little guys are strange and graceful. After autumn, the sun frosts, and the maple leaves turn from green to yellow, from yellow to orange, from orange to red, from red to purple. From a distance, they look like floating colorful auspicious clouds, hence the name "Five-color Maple". LAM Raymond and Qingfeng set each other off, like sunset and brocade, and have the reputation of "rosy clouds"
Two miracles, spring. Baiyun Spring, known as the "first-line spring", is located in the first half of the mountain, like an overflowing line, trickling into a swamp and suffering from drought. In ancient times, monks in temples used bamboo pipes to pour spring water into stone bowls. Spring water is as white as milk, also called "bowl spring". The rock beside the spring is engraved with the image of Bai Juyi, named "Xiantu". Bai Juyi once wrote the word "Baiyun Spring" and improvised a poem: "Baiyun Spring is on Baiyun Mountain, and the spring has no intention of being idle; Why rush down the mountain and add waves to the world? " Lu Yu tasted this spring and called it "the first spring in Wuzhong". In Song Dynasty, Chen wrote "Commending Baiyun Spring", saying that this spring "can intoxicate Lu Yu's heart and stimulate Lu Tong's thinking", although "the beauty of Huishan is not enough for Kanggu".
Three wonders, stone. The wonder of the stone pillars in the mountains is "like a stick, like lying down, like standing, if fighting, if biting, it can't be said." It is determined that the rock group is granite and consists of natural vertical joints and horizontal joints. There are many stone scenes. Facing the deep valley, Feilai Peak is 2.6 feet high and weighs about 50 tons. Legend has it that a monk traveled here from Sichuan and Sichuan and claimed to have seen this stone in Emei Mountain. It fell from the sky and was called "Feilaifeng". Bizhuofeng is the highest place in Yunshan. It is several feet high and looks like a pen. It goes straight into the sky, hence its name.
The strangest stone in the mountain is the "Wan Tian" in front of Fan Zu's grave. Legend has it that Fan Zhongyan resigned in his later years and went back to Suzhou to climb Tianping Mountain. He saw Tian Ping like an arrow through the heart, like a tiger pouncing on a sheep, while Shi Gen stood upright and plunged into the ground. I also heard Mr. Feng Shui call him a Jedi. Whoever buys and dies is ruined by future generations. Fan Zhongyan knew well the disadvantages of court politics and vowed that future generations would never enter the official career, so he bought this Jedi specially. After his death, people buried him here with tears in their eyes, when the clouds were low and the rain was crazy. After a night of wind and rain, the sun is full of rocks, and the rocks suddenly turn upright, such as facing the sky, forming this spectacle.
In addition, there is a place to learn Buddhism-Mantua Bowl Temple, next to Sanskrit Terrace in the north of the main entrance of Tianping Mountain. According to the biography of Buddhism in the Book of Jin, "the name is called Cheng, and he tries his best to use wisdom. Cheng took a bowl full of water and burned incense. After a while, Udo was born in the bowl, shining brightly and believing it. " This buddhist nun was named Curse Bowl buddhist nun. Fan Zhongyan was poor when he was a child. He studied hard in buddhist nun, and cooked a pot of gruel every day, frozen and frozen, divided into pieces, and served with coarse salt and pickles to satisfy his hunger. This is the famous story of "broken porridge". Later, he remarried his mother Xie to Changshan (now Zouping, Shandong Province) and studied hard in the monk's room of Liquan Temple in Changshan; I went to Du Nan (now Shangqiu) to study. At the same time, he refused to eat the rice kindly given by his son who stayed in Du Nan. Xie said: "After eating this dish, I hate pickles porridge and live a hard life." Later, he couldn't even eat two meals of porridge a day, but he still studied hard and worked hard, and finally achieved something great.
