Legend of Jinjiyan: On the road more than 800 meters away from Dongbian Village, Chixi Town, Ningde City, there is a rock wall with a height of more than six or seven feet and a carved friction rock on it. Because of the age, moss and onions are covered on it, and the handwriting is vague, so it is difficult to see what it is. According to legend, its stone carving lasted for a long time, about the Yuanfeng period of the Northern Song Dynasty. It is precisely because no one can really identify its origin for a long time that it adds a sense of mystery. Legend has it that the Chixi area was still very developed in the Song Dynasty, and the mountains were covered with dense forests. One spring, a strong young man came to the mountain road in Dongcun. He saw green leaves all over the mountain, beautiful birds and flowers, beautiful scenery, and never left. Suddenly, he found a wall carved on the roadside rock, and a hole was recessed under the wall, on which sat a stone Buddha-Maitreya Buddha. Because he is quite familiar with writing and ink, he sits down to study his handwriting from time to time. When I read the last line, the rock crack suddenly broke. With a "giggle", a golden hen and a group of golden cocks jumped out, shining golden in the sun. The sight in front of him lured him away and made him never want to study stone carving again. He stood up to catch the golden hen, but the golden hen got into a crack with a cough. See not caught, and busy catching chickens, but these chickens are also top elves, jumping around, and then got into the cracks. Only a little golden rooster was trapped next to the stone Buddha. He never gave up and tried his best to move the stone Buddha down. Sure enough, he caught the golden rooster under the Buddha's seat. At this time, he was very happy and savored the surprise. He gradually realized that this carved rock is a vault, so this stone carving is to reveal the secret of the vault. He regretted not reading the print in one breath. So he decided to read it again from the beginning, but strangely, he was dazzled by the pain without reading a few words. It was getting late at this time, and he thought that if he couldn't find a place to live, he would give it to the wolf. It was getting dark and he was walking in a daze. Unexpectedly, he knocked down an old man and was about to apologize to him. The old man smiled and said, "Young man, how can you walk without looking forward?" That's easy to go astray! "He hurriedly explained," old man, I didn't mean to, but I'm still trying to solve a mystery and offend you. "The old man smiled again and said," Yes, you are thinking about that stone carving! "How difficult is this mystery? You know, diligence is worth a thousand dollars. I don't know what Jinshan vault is doing! Don't rely on self-reliance! " The strong man listened to the old man's words, chewed carefully, and suddenly realized the truth that "diligence can turn stone into gold" Later, he stayed in the old man's thatched cottage for one night. The next day, he resolutely turned back and went back to his hometown. I don't know how many years passed, until the early Qing Dynasty, this area was initially developed and villages were established. One year, a young man with a southern dialect came to this village (now East Village), and while opening a cemetery, he told people that his ancestors had developed gold here, and the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and their ancestors buried their bones here according to their wishes. After a few words, for this reason, the story of the word rock storage quickly spread. Soon, the villagers also thought that this was indeed the gathering place of Feng Shui in their hometown, so they built a 16 column octagonal pavilion in front of Yanzi for people to enjoy the scenery and have a rest. 1922 (1 1), a flash flood broke out in Chixi, which washed down the octagonal pavilion and destroyed the stone Buddha. But this stone still exists today.

Huang Shuo v. salt form: Huang Shuozi Ting Bin, whose real name is Huating, was born in Shuxiang Family, Lutian Village, Dushi County in 24 years. He was gifted and outstanding since he was a child, and was admired by the students in the county. After ten years of Qianlong, he was awarded the title of "Sui Gong" in Yongding County, Fujian Province, where he was instructed and instructed (see Ningde County Records). After four years in office, he was honest and upright, and was deeply loved by the people. After eight years of success, Huang Shuo is 58 years old. Due to poor health, he resigned and came back to live in the house. During this period, Zhou Liang, an official salt dealer in Ningde, mixed salt and sand and sold them to the whole county. Scholars, farmers, businessmen and even beggars gnash their teeth and hate it. After the joint petition to the magistrate of a county was invalid, some people stepped forward and presented them to the province one after another, all of whom were detained and put into dungeons. Later, I learned that the profiteer was the adopted son of the governor. Obviously, the people who showed up were undoubtedly thrown into the jaws of death, and the relatives of the victims were furious. They invited urban and rural gentry and sages to gather in the city and recommended resourceful people to rescue the victims. It was suggested that Gutian resign, and immediately invited Huang Shuo to the county seat to discuss. When Huang Shuo knew that the salt merchant had a hard backer, he thanked her politely from the beginning. However, it was difficult for the nobles to draw lots, so Huang Shuo decided to draw lots first. Knowing that there was fraud, Huang Shuo had to accept the order, bid farewell to the gentry and went to the provincial capital. He first found out whether the prisoners in the dungeon were real or not, and then went to the museum to wait. One day, I heard that an imperial envoy named Zhuo came. In order to rescue the fellow villagers in the dungeon, he had a plan in mind, and ordered his family to invite a papermaker to tie up three blind lions. Each lion had steel money in his mouth and put it on a table: "The three lions (the homonym of Sanlian) look real, but they have money in their mouths. You have to make it clear that you just want the watch to be impartial. " Someone was ordered to take it to the street for people to watch. When Zhuo Qin sent messengers to see some strange things, he traced who did it and ordered an interview. When Huang Shuo visited an imperial adult, he first took out a packet of salt and poured it into a bowl of water on the table. After dissolving, a pinch of fine sand was left at the bottom of the bowl. Xiang Zhuo made it clear that Ningde salt officials, salt merchants and the governor of this province are close relatives of father and son, mixing salt with sand, endangering good people, bribing me in three provinces, and being killed when resenting. When Zhuo Qin heard this, he flew into a rage and said sharply, "If we don't handle this case, we will owe the people." Subsequently, Zhou Liang, a salt merchant, was arrested, the trial was true, and he was sentenced to death by beheading. On the day of execution, scholars and businessmen in the walls of various provinces applauded along the way, and some even posted couplets on the execution ground, saying, "Huang Shuogong is immortal, and Zhou Liang is immortal."

Bao: Once upon a time, there was a righteous man named Fu in Chixi Township. Fu has been practicing martial arts since childhood and is good at robbing the rich and helping the poor. Later, she was arrested by the government and sentenced to death. The 120 kg treasure knife he used before his death was also buried in the depths of the children's stall. After a long time, a monk came to Chixi. He told everyone that only a complete family of ten brothers can get this treasure knife. It happened that a family in the village had already given birth to nine sons. The master is anxious and wants to do it before the tenth son is born, but what if he lacks a son? I had to secretly find my wife and nephew to make up the numbers. One day, the family gathered at the top of the mountain and waited for a long time. Sure enough, a treasure knife flashed out from the deep mountain. At this time, Laojiu happily reached out to catch it, but unfortunately he failed to catch it. He shouted, "Cousin, come and give me a hand." . This call doesn't matter, the original nod was quickly wiped out without a trace.
