"Dong Han, a Jinshi in Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty, wrote in his poem" climbing the dome to visit gouqu Palace: "the mountains are so steep that it is hard to get there. Yuzhen palace has thousands of officials. At the entrance of the cave, the clouds are broken, the cranes are released in the morning, the stone roots are clear, the trees are green, and the Phoenix is perched in the evening. Jinmen Yuke dragon clay seal, night ceremony stars on the altar. "It depicts the grand occasion of the high mountain, the grand Taoist temple and the incense ceremony.

Shi Daoyuan and Shangzhen

Shi Daoyuan, also known as Liangsheng, is a Taoist of Tiezhu. Known as master Shi or master Shi Lianshi, he was born in Hengtang, Suzhou. He was born in a poor family. At the age of 13, he went to qionglong mountain as a Taoist. After that, he went down the mountain and wandered the rivers and lakes, joined Li Zicheng's subordinates and worked for the Privy Council of the Dashun regime. Because of the internal strife and fratricidal between Li Zicheng and his subordinates, he failed. So Shi Liangsheng deeply felt the coldness of the world, saw through the world, and returned to the vault mountain to live in seclusion. At that time, Taoism was in decline. One day, master Shi was reading the Jade Emperor Sutra, when he said, "the emperor of Donghua, the emperor of Dongfang, is the one who orders the emperor of Donghua to ride the immortal soldiers and horses, and has no yang to count the number of people. When he learns that the order is descending, he will protect and accept it "It happened that Prince Yu, Emperor Shunzhi's uncle of the Qing Dynasty, went to Suzhou to inspect Taicang's state money and silver and returned to Beijing. When he passed by the foot of dome mountain, he vaguely heard the sound of people boiling on the mountain and the sound of swords hissing. He felt very strange. Was it Dawang mountain? He wanted to see what happened.

He took two of his entourage to the top of the mountain. When he got to the top of the mountain, he saw several thatched cottages, in which came the sound of wooden fish and thunder, but no human figures and horses. When I entered the room, I only saw a Taoist sitting upright and reciting words. I felt that this man was extraordinary. After a long time, uncle Huang finally recognized master Shi. He had not seen him for more than ten years. They were intimate and had a conversation. Master Shi said that he had seen through the world and thought that dome mountain was an ideal place for him to practice Taoism quietly. Prince Yu said, "in that case, why not build more temples and create a great career?" master Shi said with a smile: "I don't think there is such a huge amount of money for expansion. "Prince Yu pondered for a moment and said," as long as master Shi plans the number, it will be realized. However, the Taoist temple should be built in Sanmao peak. "Master Shi nodded. Soon after, the imperial court allocated money for the construction. By the spring of the third year of Kangxi, 26 halls and thousands of auxiliary buildings had been built.
