Legend has it that there was once a family with a baby and a bad-tempered mother-in-law. Later, the woman's husband and son died unfortunately, leaving her to live with her evil mother-in-law. In the old society, feudal superstition and the resentment of the evil mother-in-law were that the daughter-in-law killed her son and grandson and always wanted to abuse her, so her daughter-in-law had a miserable life. One day, the daughter-in-law went to the grave for her husband and grandson with sacrifices. Mother-in-law suddenly ran out of the roadside wearing a Prajna mask, scaring her daughter-in-law to faint on the spot. The evil mother-in-law who achieved her goal was very satisfied. When she was ready to take off the mask, she found that she couldn't take it off and her face was burning. In a short time, the mask completely melted into the face of the evil mother-in-law. In desperation, her mother-in-law had to explain everything frankly to her daughter-in-law, and the generous daughter-in-law didn't care too much, so she took her mother-in-law to see the monk. After reading the Buddha's name, the ghost face was taken off. This story is widely circulated among Japanese Buddhists, and it is said that the masks in the story are also preserved in the Wishing Temple and Xi Nian Temple.
