According to the existing steles of "rebuilding sanhuangzhaiji" by Xinsheng society in the 12th year of Kangxi (1673), the stele of "rebuilding sanhuangdianji" by the abbot in March of the 8th year of Xianfeng (1858) and the stele of "rebuilding pangudong Ji" by the abbot of Qingliang temple in June of the 7th year of the Republic of China (1918), it can be seen that the statues with gold makeup were rebuilt many times from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China.
