Anxi folk tales and legends?
Article 1
According to legend, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the 2nd1grandchild of Zhan Dunren, the ancestor of Zhan clan in Anxi, and his wife Yang * * * hereinafter referred to as "Grandma Yang" * * moved to Yuantan Village, Xiping Town with their three children from Duoqing, Xianghua Township, Anxi County. Unfortunately, shortly after moving here, Zong Gonghui died of illness, leaving three young children and his wife. The youngest child is only a few months old and just needs nursing. The family suffered a change, and the heavy family burden fell on Yang's grandparents alone.
In order to support the family, Yang's grandparents wrapped in little feet came to Chishui village, a neighboring village 8 kilometers away, to do short-term work for a large family named Huang. Yang's grandparents are hardworking, kind, ingenious and proficient in everything. After working for a period of time, they have won the trust of their owners. Once, a large family named Huang held a grand birthday party, and especially hired a lot of helpers. After a busy day, it was already dark, and the helpers scrambled to eat. Yang's grandparents didn't eat dinner either, so they had to go home in the dark. The host is afraid of affecting the heavy housework tomorrow morning and wants her to stay and not let her go back. When asked what happened, the big family surnamed Huang knew that her master had passed away, and there was a baby to feed at home, and the child was waiting for her to cook dinner at home. Huang's family expressed deep sympathy and watched her go home.
Early the next morning, Yang's grandparents arrived at Huang's home early for work. Huang sympathized with her difficult situation and needed her long-term help, so she vacated a room for her family to live in. Yang's grandparents feel that reactive power is not rewarded. Besides, as a woman, how can she just live in someone else's house? She flatly refused. Huang couldn't help it, pointing to a clearing next to CuO, and asked her to build a shed to settle down. Yang's grandparents built a simple hut and settled down with their three children. Since then, she has helped the Huang family for a long time. More than 20 years have passed, and three sons of Yang's grandparents, Zhan Huaiyang, Zhan Huaishuo and Zhan Huaide, have all grown up. With the gradual improvement of the economic situation, this kind of Ma Shi hut has also been replaced by adobe tile houses. In a few hundred years, Zhan's population has gradually flourished. Today, there are more than 1000 people in the village, and this house has become the ancestral hall of Zhan. It turns out that the thatched cottage built by Yang's grandparents is a rare treasure trove of geomantic omen. Mr. Feng Shui, who was passing by at that time, asserted that the place occupied by this house would be a treasure trove of Feng Shui.
Time flies, after seven or eight generations. One day, a member of the Zhan family went to the field opposite the mountain to mow grass and looked up at Zuyu. He saw his ancestral temple shining like Jinbaotang, and the golden treasures in Zuyu's vestibule flew around the ancestral temple and into the Woods behind Shan Lun. He ran to the ancestral temple at a fast speed and waved a knife for a long time, only to see two silver dollars fall. When he waved again, the cleaver met a silver dollar, which bounced back, just hurting his leg and bleeding, so he had to watch the glittering gold ingot leave him. He limped home with a kitchen knife, told his family about today's situation and asked a doctor to treat him. Two silver dollars is just enough for him. When sleeping at night, in a dream, a white-haired old man said to him, "You don't deserve these silver dollars today." He quickly asked, "Then who can get this silver dollar?" The old man said: "It is to let the descendants of the ancestral hall remember the kindness of their ancestors." He said excitedly: "I am a person who remembers the kindness of my ancestors. Pay homage to your ancestors every spring and never miss it. My heart is especially sincere. " The old man said, "He is very lucky. His cylindrical figure is as tall as a roasting cage and as big as a roasting cage. This sage has not yet been born. When he comes, he shoulders the important mission of completing the reconstruction of the ancestral temple and revitalizing the ancestral style. " After waking up, he told his family his dream, and the story spread slowly, from generation to generation.
In a blink of an eye, 1990, with the thawing of tension between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, Zhan Jide, the 33rd generation descendant of Deng Rengong and the architectural giant of Taiwan Province Province, returned to his hometown to seek roots to worship his ancestors, learned about the great achievements of his ancestors, and was deeply impressed by the great achievements of Zhan Dunren Gong, the ancestor of Anxi Zhan. When he saw the continental genealogy with the names of his ancestors, he was extremely grateful if he got the treasure. From then on, he fell in love with the hot land of his hometown, and traveled across the Taiwan Strait in his later years, making suggestions and making painstaking efforts to complete the important mission of rebuilding the ancestral temple and reviving the clan style. Since 2000, he has donated 4.6 million yuan to Anxi Zhan Dunren Memorial Hall. Together with children * * * donated 6 million yuan * * *, Hui Ling Temple with fragrant flowers and green flowers in Anxi County donated more than 9 million yuan * * *, Feng Ming Zuyu and Shangcuo Zuyu donated * * * 1 10,000 yuan * *, and Ma Shizhuyu of Chishui Village in Xiping Town * * 65438+.
Zhan Jide, graceful, tall and cylindrical, is as tall and big as a roasting cage. He is a saint who remembers the kindness of his ancestors.

Hokuto Konishi Hok Township is located in the northeast of Anxi County, 39 kilometers away from the county seat. In ancient times, it belonged to the tiger head. Hutouxi passes through the territory. Today, on the Hokuto Konishi Hok Bridge, only the banks are towering and green, and the rocks in the streams are rugged. If water rushes, streams collide with boulders, white waves splash and the sound of waves is deafening. This is the famous "Hokuto Konishi Hok Creek Sound", one of the eight scenic spots at the head of the ancient lake, hence the name Hokuto Konishi Hok Township.
Hokuto Konishi Hok Town has been developed by human beings for a long time. During the archaeological discoveries in 1950s and 1980s, a Neolithic site was discovered in Linxi Mountain, Changji Village, where there were traces of human activities as early as 10000-4000 years ago. According to local genealogy records, people lived here in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and most of them migrated from other places to settle down in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Compared with other places, Hokuto Konishi Hok Township has three different characteristics:
First, there are many ancient tombs. The cliffs here are not conducive to reproduction. In ancient times, it belonged to Hutou Administrative Region. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were many scholars in Hutou. Now many hutou Li tombs have been found in the countryside, mostly in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and some other tombs have been found, which may be earlier, such as the tomb of assistant minister of the Ministry of War, the tomb of the son of heaven and the tomb of the elderly. According to legend, in the summer night, the villagers in Changji Village stood in Feng Fei Village and heard the sound of gongs and drums, just like a guard of honor in white clothes and trousers crossing the hill.
Second, there are many ancient villages. There are many villages in Hokuto Konishi Hok Township, almost all of which are in the mountains. Such as Qian Dian Village, Neidi Village and An Wei Village in the towns below, Ludi Village and Dingzai Village in Sushange, etc. Shanzhai is mainly a burglar bandit, or it may be a stronghold set by bandits to seize the hill and control the intersection in order to plunder the property of passers-by.
Third, there are many ancient temples. There are many ancient temple ruins in Hokuto Konishi Hok town, and the gods they worship are different from those in other places. For example, Fuxingyan worships King Kuxi, the god who manages warehouses, and the remains of the martial arts field where horses gallop and bows and arrows shoot at the ground. There are many temples here, such as Jiu Feng Rock, Shitouyan, Qiulu Temple and Caiban Temple.
In Changji village, a family with white hair and flushed face was also found, which is similar to atavism, and may be an ancient Fujian and Vietnamese. In Xiazhen Village, which was called Xiazhen in ancient times, more than 50 years ago, when a villager surnamed Zhou was building a house in Xiazhen, he dug a stone at the bottom of the stream and found a granite stone tablet engraved with the word "Xia Yuan", which is similar to the "Yuan Xian" tablet and may have been inscribed by Zhu. Now it is stored in Xiazhen Village.
Hokuto Konishi Hok Township is located at the junction of Anxi and Yongchun, with high mountains and dense forests and a special geographical position. Although it has been developed by human beings for a long time, it is a barren land with few historical records, showing many differences from other towns and villages in Anxi.

At the entrance of Shangge Village, halfway up the mountain in Hokuto Konishi Hok Township, Anxi County, there is a sacred stone, brick and wood structure, with three bays and a rest at the top of the mountain. Built in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, there is a touching legend of rock building in the local area.
Shangge Village is located behind Maowang Mountain, across the river from Hu Jian Highway, 307 Provincial Highway. Xiazhenxi, which originated in Yudou, Yongchun, and Jiandou Creek, which comes from the upper reaches of Xixi, meet here. There are steep peaks on both sides, fast-flowing water and very dangerous terrain. Standing in front of Lingsheng Rock, the peaks in the distance overlap and meander. The peak lying in front of you is like a turtle, leaning down to absorb water, and the scenery is excellent.
The two waters in Shangge Village meet, connecting with Zhang Ting, and issuing the lake head, which is surrounded by mountains and waters. In ancient times, there were ferries to collect and release bamboo rafts. According to legend, the ancestors of Shangge Village built a temple in a place called Gongzaiping in the village to worship Buddha. For some unknown reason, the Buddha statues are often eroded by termites, and the villagers are very upset. They want to rebuild the stone temple in a selected place.
Rebuild the rock temple, no money, no rock land One night, a Su family named Gong in the village seaside had a dream. In the dream, the Buddha claimed to be the founder of Taihu Lake and said that you wanted to build a rock temple. "You need money to find it by the stream with a big lion's head." As he spoke, his father disappeared and Su Gong woke up. He was surprised, but he knew it clearly. Could it be that his father helped him and asked him for a dream?
The next day, Su Gong hurriedly called his children and grandchildren together and told them what his father said last night, so that they could have a look at the stream. However, * * *, the scorching sun is in the sky, and there is no view from the stream. They waited all day and found nothing. On the third day, with a grain of salt, they went to the stream and waited. The sun is still shining. Just as they were retreating, a lot of bamboo rafts suddenly flowed down the stream, and some of them were tied with Chinese fir. They hurriedly fished them up one by one. It turned out that there was a heavy rain in the upper reaches, and the owner of the bamboo raft ran away a lot of bamboo rafts. Because they helped salvage, the owner of the bamboo raft gave a lot of money. Another day, it rained heavily in the direction of the town stream, and many bamboo rafts were pulled off, and they were also salvaged one by one, and they also took some wages. For three days in a row, they waited by the stream for two days and got 720 pieces of silver. The villagers were amazed, and the words of their ancestors came true. All the money was used to build a stone temple.
On the east side of Shangge Village, there is a huge stone, which stands by the stream and looks like a human figure. It's called stone, and there is a huge stone in front of it. It's a cool lion. There is a legend that stones drive lions. There is just an open flat land under the boulder shaped like a big lion, which just confirms the sentence in the dream of the founder of Taihu Lake, "Lift a big lion's head", so the villagers built a rock temple here. Yansi is located at the entrance to the village. The villagers pass by here every day. I feel that the ancestors of Taihu Lake held a dream that the spirit of Buddha is sacred, and they named the rock temple "Lingsheng Rock".
The villagers in Shangge Village are dominated by Su surname, which belongs to the same clan as Su surname in Changkeng Hengyang. After the completion of Lingsheng Yan Temple, they went to Hengyang and Changkeng to cut fire and worship the ancestor of Taihu Lake, Zhongjun and Wugu Emperor. The existing rock temple was rebuilt on 1945 and rebuilt in 2005.
