Liumiyan

Liumiyan

On the south side of the highway around the reservoir of Zeya reservoir, there is a mountain called "Nanshanling", which is the only way for the villagers around Zeya to go to Zeya. On both sides of the mountain, there are lush trees, terraced fields and a huge stone lying in the field. A story of "liumiyan" spread among the people of Zeya takes place here.

There is a big rock in Xiaoling of nanyandang mountain. There is a small hole on the wall of the rock. There are six protruding words "Amitabha Buddha in the South" carved on the hole. This is liumiyan.

brief introduction

It is said that there is Liumi rock in Yuhong cave for mountain monks to eat. Later, the little monk thought the flow was thin, so he connected it with a stick, and the flow of rice was cut off.

Mountain springs flow rice but not water, but make mountain monks not worry about food.

After passing the baton, there is no white rice spring.

Zeya

On the south side of the road around the reservoir, there is a mountain called "Nanshanling", which is the only way for the villagers around Zeya to get to Zeya. On both sides of the mountain, there are lush trees, terraced fields, terraced fields, and a huge stone lying in the field. The story of "liumiyan" spread among the people of Zeya takes place here

legend

It is said that a long time ago, there was a thatched Temple beside this huge stone in Nanshanling. There lived two monks, an old and a young. One of them was quiet and seldom went out. He planted some rice and vegetables in the fields beside the temple all the year round. The other one was opposite to the old monk in character. He was fond of leisure and loath and had nothing to do all day I don't know how to do good. In this way, the two monks grow and eat one by one, and give a little more to the poor nearby, barely making ends meet.

One year, there was a severe drought in Zeya mountain area. There was no rain for four months, and the crops did not yield. Like the two monks, the villagers in the vicinity of Nanshanling had no rice to cook for a long time, so they had to dig wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. This morning, just after dawn, the old monk took the bag and was ready to dig wild vegetables. After passing the rock beside the temple, the old monk suddenly thought, "if only rice could flow out of this rock, so that everyone would have enough to eat!" thinking and thinking, suddenly, he heard the sound of "Chi Chi". The old monk listened carefully: the sound came from the rock! I can't help looking at it! I saw a small opening on the edge of the rock, and the white rice really flowed out from it! The old monk was so happy that he quickly asked the neighboring villagers to pick up the bags. Seeing the villagers carrying away bags of white rice, the old monk was very happy

Day after day, month after month, people find it strange that the rice flowing out of the rock is only enough for everyone to eat, and there is no surplus. At this time, the little monk, who is good at cooking, has a "crooked" array: why don't you take a chisel to make the hole of flowing rice on the stone bigger, so that it can flow more rice, and then it can't eat, so that it can't sell some more money? So, this day, without telling the old monk, he took a chisel and secretly chiseled the mouth of Liumi on the rock. Chisel, chisel, the more the mouth of flowing rice is chiseled, the bigger and the deeper it is chiseled. However, the more the rice flows, the less and the less it flows. In the end, there is no rice left, only a deep hole in the rock.

Today, if you walk up the "Nanshanling" in the south of huanku highway for more than 300 meters, you can really see the "Liumi rock" of that year. On the bare rock, you can still discern the hole that was chiseled by the young monk.
