For thousands of years, the monks and nuns in Wangyun mountain temple are really well versed in Buddhism, and the most famous monk is Lu Gong. His surname is Lu Minghui. He was born in the LiZong Dynasty of the Southern Song Dynasty. According to the records of Baoqing Fu Zhi and local records of Shaoyang County by Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty, Lu Huiqi really lived here during the JINGDING period of LiZong of the Song Dynasty. There is a beautiful folk legend about this: Lu Gong is Lu Sheng who happened to meet Taoist Lu Weng in Handan hotel. While the owner Xiaomi is cooking, Lu Sheng sleeps soundly on Lu Weng's pillow. He has been the prime minister in his dream for 12 years, enjoying the splendor and wealth. But when he wakes up, Xiaomi's rice is not ripe. He really woke up and realized. So he no longer lamented poverty, and looked on the glory and wealth as a dream floating clouds, resolutely gave up the pursuit of fame and wealth, went south to central Hunan, lived in seclusion in Shouwang mountain (today's dragon looks back at Yunshan mountain), and finally achieved good results.

historical event

Zou daifan, the governor of Baoqing during the revolution of 1911, once wrote a couplet for Lu Gongdian: "if it wasn't for Menggu, it would be a dream awakened man in Handan." Given a place for the legend, the gate of the middle hall said: "Xiuzhen temple is also ancient in Song Dynasty, and the cloud mountain is looking at the heaven and Qi." It left a strong proof of the fact that Lu Hui Xiuzhen was in this mountain in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Another legend about Lu Gong is the most popular. Lu Sheng, a Yan man, has been living in seclusion in Jieshi mountain, devoting himself to practice.

He has two friends, one is Xianmen, the other is Gaoshi. Both of them are famous alchemists of Yan state in the Warring States period. They know astronomy and geography, and are respected as sages. Later, they don't know what to do. The people who respect them think that they have already realized the truth and will become Buddhists and immortals, so they build temples and offer incense and candles, but they also ask for help. They knock and then they are spiritually prosperous The faithful men and women came and went, but they said that they had got the elixir of immortality and could live forever in the world.

The news of two immortals who had taken the elixir of immortality came to the ears of Li Si, the Prime Minister of the first emperor of Qin. Li Si hurriedly went to report to the first emperor of Qin, yearning for the immortality of the first emperor of Qin. After hearing the great joy, he ordered Li Si to drive to Jieshi mountain to seek the elixir of immortality.

When Qin Shihuang arrived at Jieshi mountain, he saw Jieshi mountain towering into the sky and the vast sea in front of the mountain. He asked everyone who knew there were Xianmen and Gaoshi, but no one knew where the two immortals had gone. The first emperor ordered people to inquire about the people who knew the two immortals. I don't know who said Lu Sheng knew the two immortals and had contacts with them. Qin Shihuang ordered Li Si to find Lu Sheng and force him to come Take Lu Sheng to find the two immortals for him.

Seeing the first emperor's immortality and cruelty, Lu Sheng didn't want to seek the elixir of immortality for him. He practiced for a long time and could see into the past and the future, but he didn't dare to disobey the emperor's orders. So he had to lie that immortality was on Penglai Island. Penglai island was deep in the sea, so he needed to build a big ship and asked 1000 boys and girls to go with him .

Lu Sheng wanted to take the opportunity to delay time and slip away. Unexpectedly, Qin Shihuang's men were very strict with him. Lu Sheng had no choice but to play the ritual of seeking immortals to fool the first emperor. He wrote a book on which he predicted "Hu ye, the one who died in Qin Dynasty", claiming that he was entrusted by the gods.

The biggest worry of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty was the "Hu people", who were the Huns at that time (he never thought it would be his son Hu Hai who died). The Huns were eyeing the northern border of the Qin Dynasty, which was the biggest threat of the Qin Dynasty. After reading this book, the first emperor of Qin was busy patrolling the north and building the city walls.

Lu Sheng took the opportunity to escape from Xianyang, but he did not dare to return to Yandi. After several turns, he found Shouwang mountain (now Wangyun mountain, longhui County, Hunan Province). It was a place where dragon Qi gathered. He lived in Jielu, burning pills and refining medicine. Qin Shihuang was very angry because Lu Sheng secretly left his hometown, so he ordered to examine and interrogate all the alchemists in Xianyang city. In order to find out Lu Sheng's whereabouts, he got nothing. In the end, Qin Shihuang killed all the more than 460 alchemists and Confucians arrested in Lishan valley. This is the famous incident of pitching Confucians in history.

Later, Lu Sheng finally found the elixir of immortality in Wangyun mountain. It is commonly known as wormhole rattan. It is a kind of rattan plant, which is refined into elixir. In order to prevent people from taking it indiscriminately, and even the congestion of heaven, he presented a mantra to this plant before he ascended to heaven: the sage ate the elixir, and the mortal ate the heartbreak. This plant is also known as heartbreak grass. Many people died because they mistakenly took this plant It is extremely poisonous and can be found everywhere. Wormhole vine has also become the first choice for people who commit suicide around Wangyun mountain. Lu Sheng's verse has killed many people.

After Lu's death, the local people built Tianmen temple on the original site of his thatched cottage, carved the statue of Duke Lu, and made a confession in the morning and evening,

Lu Sheng, the alchemist who seeks the elixir of immortality, is known and worshipped by more and more people.
