God fish

There is a strange fish in the lake. The head of the fish is like a frog, the body is like a crocodile, the tail is like a tadpole, the back is dark brown, and the belly is covered with red stripes. It is said that the emperor song fled and passed by here, and his hands and feet were too hungry. The fish in the Tianchi Lake swayed in the water. If he wanted to catch without tools, he had to look at the fish and sigh: "if only the fish could go ashore automatically."

The emperor of Song Dynasty was so happy that he gave the fish "four legged fish", so the Phoenix people always regarded it as a god fish.

Prince cave

At that time, the emperor of song fled to this place under the protection of the ministers. Later, Yuan soldiers chased him. A minister found a cave, and they immediately surrounded him. In a twinkling of an eye, Yuan soldiers caught up with him, but no one was seen. It turned out that Spiderman pitied the little emperor. As soon as they got into the cave, they quickly spun silk to make a net and sealed the cave. Only in this way did they save the lives of the little emperor and others. At that time, the Song Emperor was only seven or eight years old. He had just been an emperor for a few days, but the common people didn't know it. They thought he was still the prince, so this cave was called "Prince cave". Later generations carved two large stones in this cave with the words "heaven will not die in Song Dynasty" and "Ru Ren will save the Lord". There is also a stone chair in the cave, facing south from north. It is said that this is the "Prince's chair" that the prince once sat on.

Finally, the rising fireworks burst through the clouds, the sky was full of gold, and the red sun slowly floated out of the mountain sea.

Taiping Temple

In Wudong mountainside, several peaks stand in front of the temple, commonly known as "seven stars accompany the moon". The temple was founded by Wu Liuqi in 1655, who ordered the chief military officer to be stationed at Rao Ping Ping'an office, and now has three inscriptions, plaques and couplets.

At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty (around 1644 AD), the last Prince of Ming Dynasty fled to the south for refuge. After many hardships, he finally fled to Wudong Tianchi mountain. Wu Liuqi, the accompanying official, hid the prince in a cave beside Tianchi. Wu was caught alive by the Qing soldiers because of his pursuit. Forced by the situation, Wu finally gave up the prince's hiding place and offered him to the Qing court. The emperor of the Qing Dynasty said that he had contributed to the crown prince, but did not kill him. He ordered Wu to be the chief soldier officer of Rao Ping'an office. Up to now, there is a widespread saying among the people in Fenghuang mountain that Wu Liuqi collected the crown prince and offered the crown prince.

After Wu Liuqi was granted the title, his official addiction had not yet been satisfied. In his jurisdiction, he recruited talents and chose places to set up another family. When Prince Wu Zang was in Tianchi mountain, he found that there was a small flat ground at the foot of the mountain on one side of Tianchi Lake. There were three platforms towering behind, seven stars in front, Tianmen and Dihu. The top of Zhongfeng mountain was Tianchi district. It was connected with Yunhan mountain. It had a vast view. It was surrounded by strange peaks on the left and right. It had natural barriers, wind and gas accumulation, and unique caves. So it was considered to be an excellent place for geomantic omen And decided to build here and gradually realize its purpose.

Wu Liuqi then used his power to collect funds, prepare materials and transport them to the construction site one after another. Unexpectedly, the news was leaked and spread to the imperial court. The Qing emperor immediately ordered the Imperial Envoys to inspect the truth and falsehood. If there was such a thing, he would certainly play a trick and ask questions about it, which would involve the nine nationalities. Wu Liuqi was fearless in the face of danger. Before the imperial envoy arrived, he immediately killed all the construction workers invited from Quanzhou to prevent leakage of secrets. On the one hand, he sent people to expand the original "Yonglian nunnery", and buried all the silver and salt raised from the three water tanks, as well as the huge stone materials planned for construction, temporarily covering up the original plan, in order to make a comeback. Wu huanling changed the name of "yonglianhuo" to "Taiping Temple", which threatened to praise the establishment of the imperial court and the prosperous world. Chin
