Tongtian cave

The natural Grottoes lead to the nine heavenly caves

From the bottom of the meditation Valley to the middle of the Qinglong mountain, there are three natural caves. The left and right caves are all dead caves. The right cave often has springs seeping out. In summer, it can become a stream. The middle hole is like a shaft, which leads to the top of the mountain. Local people say that only wild sheep can be found there.

It is said that Li Yan, Prince Yingwang of Tang Dynasty, was afraid that his younger brother Li Chen, King Guangwang, would usurp the throne. Many murders failed. The Empress Dowager sent a eunuch to secretly cut Li Chen's hair to become a monk in Xiangyan temple. After Li Yan became emperor, he sent troops to Xiangyan temple to kill Li Chen twice. Zhixian Zen master of Xiangyan Temple helped Li Chen to escape from the Wall twice and escape into the meditation valley. He was able to escape from Tongtian cave. After Li Yan's death, Li Chen returned to the court and succeeded to the throne, which was Emperor Xuanzong. Every time he thought about this cave, he was very emotional: "this cave is a hole to heaven." Thanks for saving his life and accomplishing his great cause.

Tongtian cave is often haunted by wild snakes and rats as big as rabbits. The road is very dangerous. People often need to use torches and grasp chains to climb to the top of the cave. There are still several places in the cave that need to be turned to pass through. Visitors call this place the transfer platform, and leave two poems: "the natural Grottoes pass through nine days, and the whole life transports through the cave.

Longwangquan

According to experts' research, this spring is the largest Yongquan in the Central Plains, and it contains more than 20 kinds of trace elements such as zinc and iron. Drinking it can keep fit, washing it can remove itching and whiten skin.

The mystery of science remains to be further studied by experts. However, there is a magic story here, which seems to explain this strange phenomenon of "wealth inequality" in groundwater. According to legend, in ancient times, the Jade Emperor sent the Dragon King to distribute water in the world, and the Dragon King assigned the turtle king to carry water to Xiangyan temple, and asked the leopard king to escort it. The two kings worked very hard to transport water. As soon as they arrived at Xiangyan temple, they dozed off in the meditation valley. The Dragon King spring was formed by overturning all the water it carried and dumping it on the ground. The land master of Xiangyan Temple sued the Dragon King for not delivering enough water. The Dragon King was very angry. He demoted the turtle king as a stone turtle and the leopard king as a stone leopard. He put pressure on the stone turtle and guarded the Yongquan forever.
