Historical legend

Huanv spring has many fascinating legends, among which the most famous one is the auspicious flower girl. She incarnates in Xu Jia, and Laozi points a stick to help the spring and Princess Yuzhen jellyfish. These wonderful legends and stories add a lot of magic color to huanuquan.

Try Xu Jia

It is said that Lao Tzu once served as a minor official in the Zhou Dynasty. Later, he devoted himself to learning Taoism, resigned and returned to his hometown Shangqiu. On his way home, he saw a pile of white bones beside the road. When he looked at them, he seemed to have a wandering soul. He felt compassion, so he practiced Taoism and used the "shape gathering sign" to turn the white bones into human beings. This is Xu Jia, a young and handsome man who leads a cow for Laozi. When Hanguguan Lingyin welcomed Laozi to give lectures at Louguantai, he had been herding cattle for Laozi for 200 years. Lao Tzu had promised him that he would pay him gold as wages when preaching to the West.

Lao Tzu went to Louguantai and preached all day. He was so busy that he didn't mention the salary. Xu Jia was very unhappy. On the one hand, he felt the hardships of herding green cattle and sleeping in the open all day long. On the other hand, he felt the hardships of learning Taoism. So I plan to ask for my salary and live a comfortable life.

One day, he was holding a cow in the place of Hua Nu Quan, and his heart began to pull. For a moment, he couldn't think of a good plan. Suddenly, a beautiful manor appeared. In the garden, the flowers are blooming, the birds are chirping, there are hundreds of hectares of fertile land, and there are many mules and horses. An old member, leaning on a crutch, is looking at him with a smile. Beside him is a pretty girl. The old man asked, "young man, who do you herd cattle for?" Xu Jia's face was not happy, and he said in a voice, "give it to Laozi." The old man asked again, "do you pay me?" Xu Jia said discontentedly, "it's said that it's three strings of money in January, but so far I haven't even seen a penny!" After hearing this, the old man sighed and said, "young man, life is a lifetime, and plants are a fall. Why do you want to become an immortal and suffer from those hardships! You see, I have such a big manor, and I only have such a daughter under my knee. Although she has no natural beauty, she can't find it even with a lantern. If you don't dislike it, you can ask me for my salary and be my son-in-law. You two will enjoy endless wealth. What do you think? " Xu Jia listened, full of joy, can not help but secretly look at the girl, the girl is also secretly looking at him. Infatuated, he said impatiently, "great! I'm going to ask for my wages now! " He was just about to leave. Strangely enough, the manor, the old man and the girl suddenly disappeared. Xu Jia was shocked. I didn't know when I was standing in front of him.

It turned out that Lao Tzu wanted to pass on the Taoist Scriptures to Xu Jia, but he found that Xu Jia was often sulky and refused to bear hardships, so he turned into a Zhuangyuan to test his heart. He changed the girl with "auspicious grass", and he became the old clerk himself. Seeing that Xu Jia's heart was not strong and his lust was too much, he burst into a rage and showed his real body. He was so angry that he couldn't speak. He took a shovel in his hand and stabbed the place where the beautiful woman stood, so a clear spring suddenly appeared underground. This is today's "Hua Nu Quan".

When Xu Jia saw that his privacy had been discovered by Laozi, his face turned red and angry. He told Yin Xi that Laozi depended on him for his wages. Yin Xi thought over and over again that Shifu was not the one who broke his debts. There must be something strange in this. So he asked me, what's the matter. Lao Tzu sneered and said, "please call Xu Jia to me." Xu Jia came bitterly. Laozi asked, "do you know your origin?" Xu Jia is at a loss. Laozi said, "open your mouth." Xu Jia was puzzled and opened his mouth. Lao Tzu took back the "Juxing Fu" immediately, and Xu Jia instantly recovered to a pile of white bones. When Yin Xi saw this, he fell on his knees and begged, "master, although Xu Jia deserves what he has done, I'd better forgive him this time when I remember his two hundred years of love with you. Let him repent and be a new man!" In Yin Xi's plea, Lao Tzu pointed with his hand, and Bai Gu became Xu Jia again. Xu Jia was full of shame.

Lao Tzu told the whole story of him and sighed: "originally, I promised to pay you with gold when I was at rest, because I wanted to give you the golden elixir, so that you would be too mysterious and free forever. Who knows you --" then Lao Tzu became excited again, "greedy for money and lust, fond of leisure and evil work. It seems that my mind is not strong. How can it be successful in the future? Yin Xi, pay him 720 yuan for 200 years. Let him go

After listening to Lao Tzu's words, Xu Jia realized that he had failed to live up to his master's painstaking efforts. He beat his chest and felt remorseful. He cried bitterly and begged Laozi to leave him.

In order to make Xu Jia remember this lesson, Lao Tzu insisted that he go. Xu Jia refused to go even if he died. After Lao Tzu's anger subsided a little, he said, "when you really change your mind in the future, you can come back again. Remember, as long as you really learn Taoism, we will meet again." Xu Jia understood that it was Lao Tzu who wanted to continue to test himself, so he had to leave in tears. After that, Xu Jia engraved the story of "Hua Nu Quan" in his heart, removed all selfish thoughts, studied it carefully, and finally became an immortal. This is the "white bone immortal" in Taoism.

Stick for spring

When Lao Tzu tried Xu Jia, he saw that Xu Jia was moved by everyone's heart. Lao Tzu burst into a rage and pulled out his crutch to vent his anger. At the crutch point, a clear spring suddenly appeared. Huanuquan got its name.

Jellyfish for the people

After Empress Wu Zetian, Princess Yuzhen, the daughter of emperor Ruizong of Tang Dynasty, lived in seclusion a hundred miles away from the palace to celebrate the Tang Dynasty. Later, he wrote to Emperor Xuanzong that he would voluntarily give up the princess's name and all the family property. Please extend his life for ten years. The emperor followed. In Jingyun period of Yizong of Tang Dynasty, the temple was granted the name of "Yansheng Temple". The princess lived in the temple for 50 years. During this period, Li Bai, Wang Wei, Lu Lun and other scholars often came to visit.

According to the stele of "rebuilding the lower courtyard of the ancient Louguan Zongsheng Palace" in the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, the princess was kind-hearted and opened a spring in Guandong to save people's suffering and benefit from drought and flood. Princess Daocheng soars in the East Valley of the spring. In memory of the princess, the local people regarded her as a "jellyfish" and called the spring opened by the princess "Hua Nu spring". It means the spring of turning emperors and daughters into immortals.

Tea culture

Tea is the essence of all things, the beauty of all products, clear but not floating, quiet but not stagnant, light but not thin. China is the hometown and origin of tea. When talking about Chinese tea, it has a lot to do with the native Taoism since it came into being. Chinese tea culture is permeated with Taoism spirit and Taoism thought everywhere. Tea and Taoism are inextricably linked.
