Muke Village

The scenic spot is located on the terrace near the top of the waterfall valley. According to relevant records, there are mountains more than 100 miles southeast of Wutai mountain called Heishan, and villages in the mountains called Muke village, which is also here.

It is said that the father of general Mu Guiying of the Song Dynasty, general mu, is both civil and military. He has made great achievements in war. Later, he was killed by treacherous officials and wanted to be slaughtered. General Mu led his family to flee to Jielu and live here overnight, named Muke village.

Yang Zongbao broke through the Tianmen array to find the Dragon subduing wood. He entered the Muke village by mistake and got married to Mu Guiying privately. The stone roller in front of the gate was used at that time.

Follow the winding path to the front door of the village. Entering the village is a relatively open martial arts field. Facing the martial arts field is the recruiting room, followed by the inner courtyard of the village. On both sides are the gathering Hall of the village and Mu Guiying's boudoir.
