There is no black dog beside Weici's hiding place. I don't know why. Why is there such a group of exquisite stone statues preserved in dengmiao village? It is understood that more than 40 years ago, there were 29 stone sculptures and clay figurines in dengmiao village.
There are five Wudang Temple steles rebuilt in Wanli, Chongzhen, Kangxi, Tongzhi and 1915. There is also a large iron clock with the word "Wanli year rebuilt".
The buildings include Wudang temple and Sanhuang hall, which are hard mountain buildings with five rooms wide and three rooms deep.
The 29 stone statues and clay sculptures are dedicated to the two halls.
The front hall is the Sanhuang hall, with 20 statues of Sanhuang, eryaowang and ten famous doctors. The back hall is Wudang temple, with 9 statues of Wudang God, Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang and stone heart sculptures. The hall of the three emperors was destroyed before the founding of the people's Republic of China
In 1917, to prevent the Yellow River from bursting, it was transported to the dam. From then on, the stone statues began to be destroyed. In addition to the parts transported to the river embankment, some of them were smashed and some of them were buried in the ground. The big iron clock was destroyed in the iron and steel smelting in the old 58 years. Wudang temple, Sanhuang hall and stone statues are no longer available.
The founding date is unknown, but judging from the existing stone pillar bases and the carving techniques and shape style of stone statues in the main hall. It seems to be a relic of the Yuan Dynasty.
In the spring and Autumn period, in the land of Lu, Zuo Zhuan recorded that in the 10th year of Yin Gong, the Duke of Qi met Zheng Bo in Zhongqiu and allied himself with Deng. At that time, it was relatively prosperous. In the Han Dynasty, it became the political and economic center of the region.
Beautiful legend
Wudang Temple according to investigation, Wudang temple in dengmiao village was famous for its Wudang God. There are two adjacent halls in the temple: Wudang hall and Sanhuang hall, both of which are hard mountain buildings with five rooms wide and three rooms deep.
There are 29 stone statues and 29 clay statues with stone core, which are respectively worshipped in the two halls.

Before the founding of the people's Republic of China, the hall of the three emperors was destroyed. Five inscriptions and some stone statues were built to prevent the breach of the Yellow River in 1947.
It was unearthed again in the summer of 1980. The iron bell was destroyed in 1958 when the iron and steel was being refined. As a result, Wudang Temple (including some existing stone statues) has no literature to draw lessons from, and its founding date is unknown.
Wudang God
Among the existing stone statues in Wudang temple, Wudang stone statues (commonly known as "Wudang master" or "Wudang master") are rarely seen in the world.
The statue is a high relief cross legged sitting statue, with thin eyebrows and big eyes, dark hair and childlike face. It has a bun on its head and a large sleeve robe. It has six hands, three of them holding Taiji picture, two holding books and one holding beads. The top of the head is a light relief cloud pattern backlight, and the back is a light relief pine tree.
With a total height of 192 cm and a width of 94 cm, it is a typical example of the integration of Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism.
This is the concentration and embodiment of Chinese traditional culture, and also the display of wisdom and strength of ancient working people.
As for the origin of the name "Wudang", there are few historical materials. Ask the local people and tell them that "Wudang first followed by Jade Emperor" or "Wudang first followed by heaven" is like a God who created heaven and earth. Therefore, some people wrote a couplet for Wudang Temple: "stepping on the blue waves to open the world, holding Taiji to fix the universe.".
The stone statues of Wudang have been preliminarily identified as relics of song and Yuan Dynasties by experts of stone carvings in Shandong Province.
temple fair
Wudang Temple Fair has a long history. According to the newly discovered stele of rebuilding Jiao in 1926, it is recorded as follows:
The name of the sacrificial ceremony is to set up an altar for praying, so it is to worship the gods. However, don't be the first, though the beauty is not obvious; don't be the second, though the biography of Buddhism is abundant. Therefore, I am the holy emperor of the temple and the ten famous doctors of the three emperors. Zhushengjun is very powerful. All the neighboring villages in this village are protected by him. Therefore, there was an Ping'an society. It has been built for many years, and there are inscriptions on it. Good men believed in women, prayed for the silent blessing of the gods, restored the happiness of the society, and attached to the completion of the three-year Jianjiao ceremony. I'm afraid it's a long time ago. Although it can be continued, it should be opened up. Fortunately, the undertakers are kind and tireless. They want to show the power of God, but not without the kindness of God. The former social surname has been listed as Zhenmin, and the later social surname should be immortal. The Lords of all societies ask for Yu as an article. I read little and know little about it.
From this we can see the scale of the prosperity of Wudang temple fair in the past.
After the founding of new China, temple fair was regarded as a feudal legacy and was banned.
In 1995, with the support and help of the local government and cultural management departments, in order to excavate the historical heritage and carry forward the traditional culture, the local villagers initiated a donation conference of "maintaining temples and protecting historic sites" at the time of the old temple fair. During the conference, the people of the four townships gathered, and their feelings were enthusiastic and generous. So far, the temple fair of Deng temple and Wudang temple was held as scheduled from the sixth to the eleventh day of the third month of the lunar calendar, mainly in the form of donations for the maintenance of cultural relics. During the temple fair, in addition to donation, incense and other activities, there are also performing village opera, speaking fast books, blowing suona, kneading dough figurines, frying Mahua and other artistic performances. The folk customs are still as lively as ever.
