Historical evolution

According to historical records, Fengshan Taoist temple was first built in the Song Dynasty. It was destroyed by war in the Yuan Dynasty. The Xiyi temple was rebuilt in the 17th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1384 A.D.), and then expanded four times in the 4th year of Xuande (1429 A.D.), the 6th year of Zhengtong (1441 A.D.), the 7th year of Jingtai (1456 A.D.) and the 6th year of Chenghua (1470 A.D.), making it a Taoist temple. In the 19th year of Chenghua in Ming Dynasty, it was expanded again. Qiongyao, a fairy mountain surrounded by white clouds, was built to offer sacrifices to Chen Xiyi, the Taoist ancestor of the Song Dynasty, and his disciple sun Yunji, the Taoist priest of the Ming Dynasty. As the tablet near the hall of immortal says, sun Yunji was born in the Ming Dynasty. At the age of seven, he practiced Taoism. At the age of seventeen, he came to Fengxian Taoist temple. Chen Xiyi was determined to practice hard, refine the essence, clean out the elixir, help people and cure diseases for more than forty years. During the 30 years from the fourth year of Xuande (1429) to the sixth year of Chenghua (1470), sun Yunji once presided over the construction and maintenance of tianzhenguan four times, which made it a large scale. At that time, people thought that it was very helpful to promote the development of Taoism and the preservation of scenic spots in this prefecture, and commented that "Mr. Sun has boundless morality".

The main body of the upper court is the hall of real people, which is the place to worship the immortal sun Yunji. Two murals are painted on the walls of the hall of immortal. One shows sun Yunji being taught the five thunder scriptures by Chen Xiyi. The other shows sun Yunji leaving an old pair of shoes for his disciple Jiang Haoyuan after he became an immortal, saying that he can wear them when he wants to find him. But a few years later, when Jiang Haoyuan took out his shoes, he found that they were worn out and threw them out. In an instant, the shoes turned into cranes and flew away. Jiang Haoyuan also lost the chance to become an immortal. Jiang Haoyuan had to live in a narrow shrine on the right side of the hall of immortal, where his tomb was. The appearance of the hall is like a pavilion. In fact, entering the hall, you can see that it is a common cave in Northwest Shanxi. Sun Yunji, sun Zhenren, is sitting in the center of the cave. The statue of God is shining with golden light and surrounded by smoke. It's really a kind of immortal. There are many banners around the statues, most of which are written "respond to every request", most of which come from the urban and rural areas of lishimoto city.

The emperor said, "you are a needle (real) person! ”As soon as he heard it, he quickly gave thanks and became a real person.
