Seeking Immortal Seal, all the way to surprise gift.
on September 13th, 22, I invited my friends to go to Yidu, Fuqing to find the legendary immortal seal.
Fairy seal, recorded in the Records of Yongtai County: "Fairy seal, in the rock of Yidu Luohan Temple, has a seal cross, and the situation is so strange that people can't recognize it. Ouyang Yongshu got it, and he was glad that it was not engraved, such as referring to painting in writing, and he wanted to translate it in gold calligraphy. Cai Junmo defended the Three Mountains, which was translated by Taoist books. He said, "Being original and keeping the truth, there is immortality in it."
Ming? Wang Wan has the poem "Stone Chamber Immortal Seal" as evidence:
The mountain spirit can be remembered, when is the great book special? Drunk and dripping with ink. I want to ask about the strange wine, and the literary talent is now resting. Laughing at the sky, who is the wrist force? Clouds and smoke fall on the paper, and ghosts go away, but the smell makes the pen like the wind. The army directly crushed 12 cities, and the athletes stayed at night for 3 camps. Yan Miao neither learns from beauty, grandeur nor flags. Hoo hoo! It's hard to find out for thousands of years why the prime minister of Shangcai has no right to paint a picture. (
Qing? Jiang Chen also wrote a poem with the same title "Stone Chamber Immortal Seal": "The grass is like a product next to Luohan Temple, and the moss is sealed as cold blue. In the middle, the strange characters split the sky, and the ghosts and gods care for the precious hands. Who is good at seal script in ancient times? Before Reese, after Bing Yang. No matter how many buckets you fill with ink, why are you so thin and hard to understand the gods? The anger and anger are fighting against the thunder, and it is erratic and steep. Stubborn ten thousand cattle return to their wrists, galloping thousands of horses and hearing the sound of the wind. I didn't see the stone for a long time, and I called the monk to laugh and clap his hands several times. Teaching is really a mystery, and it is too good to say that it is immortal! "
Qing? Lin Buxian also has the poem "Luohan Temple": "When Fei Xi lived in the cave, Jia Ming dates back to the Tang Dynasty. Don't talk about Buddhism until the dust is over, and the fun is the same as learning Zen. There are signs that the hue is solemn, and the nymphs have provided for it. I want to visit the cliff carving, and my eyes are broken. "
from this point of view, the immortal seal script is both mysterious and hard to find. Apart from arousing the great interest of Ouyang Xiu and Cai Xiang, two famous artists in the Song Dynasty, it is difficult for people after the Ming Dynasty to find traces. Although I went with the same interest today, the result can be imagined. Thanks to the enthusiastic assistance of Mr. Chen Lingfeng, a donkey friend, I soon found the Lohan Temple in Lohan. This Luohanli is now a capital town in Fuqing, and it was under the jurisdiction of Fuqing County in Yongtai County in 1958. Luohan Temple is about 5 kilometers away from Yidu Town. There is a cement road leading to the front of the temple. The temple is surrounded by mountains and is being repaired. Four old pillars stand in the left front of the temple, which makes the temple more historical. The temple is small in scale, with a single single floor and two entrances, and a wing next to it. On the wall of the hall, there is a stone tablet that was rebuilt and donated light years ago. There are no rock cliffs nearby, and there are two rooms next to it. Because of the reconstruction, no monuments can be seen. I asked the villagers specially, but the villagers didn't know, saying that the villagers had never seen ancient handwriting, but many years before I told them, some people explored it carefully. Are there any big rocks nearby? It is said that there was a big stone beside the temple, which was later chopped into material, and there was no trace. We can only return with regret.
I went back to Yidu Town to visit Huangding's former residence, so the location is especially good. There are many heritages: the stone gate is not big, and it is almost in the same place. The stone slab remains of the gate, front hall and patio witness the long flow of history. The main seat was later turned over, less than a hundred years ago, there was a big lotus pond in front, with a wide view in the distance. There were two peaks in front, a writing pen and an official hat, which were very similar. Environment makes people, and nature implies people. This is not superstition, but science, but people can't understand it. There is a brief introduction near the old house: Huang Ding, the third champion of Yongfu. I still respect history.
On the way back, Mr. Chen talked about the inscription of Ouyang Xiu in Dongshan Village not far away, "You can go in and have a look", which excited me. Is there an inscription of Ouyang's adult here? It's hard to believe!
Ouyang Xiu's inscription is located on two fangs-like rock walls in Shitoukeng, Dongshan Village, Yidu Town. The distance between the two rocks is about ten meters, and one of them faces north. The inscription of the seal script "Sansheng Stone" is clear and clear, about .2×.3 meters, with red paint and easy identification, and the small letters "Yongshu" on the side are blurred. In one place, to the west, the wall is engraved with "the photo platform", which is also a seal script, each word is .3x.5 meters, and the inscription "Ouyang Yongshu" is a regular script, which is still recognizable. Seal cutting is a rare cliff inscription with vigorous fonts and smooth strokes. It is difficult to judge whether Ouyang Xiu is an original, but Ouyang Xiu has been to Luohan Temple to enjoy the immortal seal, and it is also impossible to leave an inscription here. Otherwise, why should future generations borrow Ouyang Yongshu to get a fake inscription? If so, what is the intention? On the contrary, the Fuqing people of Niu B were not confident, and the inscription signed by such a big figure was only published as a county-level cultural relics protection unit in 1987, and there was no protection at all? It really makes people doubt that Fuqing, the largest county in Fuzhou, should pay due attention to culture!
However, it is said that there is a story behind the "Sanshengshi" and "the photo platform": Ouyang Xiu and Huang Dingyuan, the champion of Longyu, belong to the same family in the South Tang Dynasty!
Two years back in the Song Dynasty, namely in 15 AD, 44-year-old Ouyang Xiu (17~172) went to Yidu Longyu in Yongfu County to meet his 5-year-old brother Huang Xiang (1~178, the first ancestor of Huang's family in Yidu Longyu), and Ouyang Xiu opened a genealogy of Chu Shi presented by Huang Xi at Huang Jia's home. So Ouyang Xiu and his elder brother Huang Xiang saw a piece inscribed with three big characters "posthumous photo desk" on the roadside. In an instant, he was full of thoughts, as if he felt that this was past lives's agreement, so he carved three characters of "Sanshengshi" on another rock, which combined Buddhist words: previous life, this life and the next life.
Attachment: In 21, in Diaoyuan Village, Xingqiao Town, Jizhou District, Ji 'an City, Jiangxi Province, Ouyang Xiu's "Preface of Wenzhong's Public Spectrum" was discovered, which revealed that he was the great-grandson of Renying Huang, a scholar in the late Tang Dynasty and a bachelor in charge of the cabinet of Duanming Hall, and that Huang Yan, the son of Renying Huang, was unable to attack books because of his poor family, so he adopted Ouyang Bin, his uncle, who lived in Panhu, Jinjiang, southern Fujian Province, and changed his name to Ouyang Yan This Renying Huang and Huang Ding, the top scholar of Yidu, are descendants of Huang Ai of Chu Shi in the late Tang Dynasty.
