Tianyun Temple

Tianyun Temple

Tianyun temple is located in the east of Dama village, chonggezhuang Township, Fangshan. It is a courtyard facing south. On the lintel of the mountain gate, there is a regular script: "Tianyuan Temple". The red wall and green bamboo outside the temple are quiet and elegant. On both sides of the main hall are two-story bell and drum towers, Xieshan clear water ridge. There is no evidence to prove the age of the temple. There are one Scripture building and one stone censer of Liao Dynasty in the temple. There is a monument rebuilt in the Republic of China, which can prove the long history of the ancient temple.

According to the legend of the old man, there is a big temple in the east of Qingfeng County, in which there are many monks. One day, a little monk went to the field outside the temple to carry water. Suddenly, a naked child with a red belly pocket ran to the well and said to the little monk, "tell me to drink some water." The little monk told the child to drink water, took it and left. In this way, every day, the little monk thought, whose baby is this? Every day he goes to the well to drink my water. Later, the little monk told the old monk about it. The old monk thought to himself, whose baby can come here to drink water? It must be ginseng that has become ginseng baby. So he said to the little monk, "here's a needle and a ball of red thread. Sew the red thread on the needle and stab it on the child when he drinks water. Call me later. " The little monk said, "middle.". On this day, the child came to drink the little monk's water again. While he was drinking, the little monk secretly stabbed the needle with red thread on the child. The child finished drinking and left. The little monk said it to the old monk quickly. As soon as the old monk heard it, he led several disciples to look for it along the red line and found that they were in a piece of waste grass. They planed and planed and found a ginseng doll. The old monk is very happy about this. "We can be immortals. We can live forever. "

After returning to the temple, he cooked it in a pot and gave each of the monks a little after cooking. The rest of the ginseng soup was poured around the temple. After pouring, the temple suddenly took off and fell down at a place. This is what we call Tianyun temple. This incident is still spreading. Later, the village next to the temple was called Tianyun temple village.

It is said that a long time ago, in the northwest corner of tianyunsi village, Xianzhuang Township, Qingfeng County, there is an ancient temple with a square garden for several miles. The outside of the temple is full of weeds, and the residents of several surrounding villages have never been to the grass. It has long been said that some strange things often happen in it, so no one dares to go there. To say the origin of the name of Tianyun temple village, we have to start from the temple.

The ancient temple, which is several li away from the square garden, is the same as other ancient temples. It is surrounded by a wall more than ten meters high. The gate of the temple faces due south, and a pair of big stone lions guard the gate on both sides of the gate. When you enter the gate, you can see that the temple is covered with shade and towering trees. There are many Buddha statues in the temple. The side hall is the residence of the abbot and the young monk. The abbot lives in a secret room. He teaches the young monk martial arts every morning. For a while, he sat on the steps of the main hall and watched the little monk practice. In the afternoon, he chanted scriptures in the main hall. This goes on day after day, year after year. The abbot has set strict Temple rules. No young monk is allowed to offend. Anyone who violates the rules will be punished according to the temple rules. But when monk Huiyuan became abbot, a miracle appeared.

Huiyuan inherited the laws and regulations of the former abbot and taught the young monk to practice martial arts as usual every day. On this day, he called all the monks in the temple to form a line-up of eight people to practice martial arts in the courtyard. He watched carefully. When he saw a line-up in the middle, he suddenly stopped. He clearly remembered that he ordered eight people in the middle. How could there be a monk outside the array who was inserting into the array and shuttling back and forth from time to time? What's the matter? He was suspicious. He thought he didn't see clearly, so he went to see nine people. In the evening, the strange little monk left the temple. For several days, the little monk came to the temple at sunrise and left secretly at sunset. Huiyuan, the old monk, wanted to know where the little monk came from. After thinking for several days, he finally came up with a good way.

On this day, when the sun was about to set, Huiyuan secretly tied a long red rope to the clothes behind the little monk. The little monk didn't notice it and left the temple to walk towards the grass. Monk Huiyuan followed behind quietly along the red rope. The grass outside the temple is high and dense. The old monk slowly separated the grass and walked in. The thorny weeds damaged his clothes and broke his face, hands, arms and legs. There were bright red blood marks. These old monks didn't care. After walking about a mile, the red rope in his hand suddenly stopped. He took a few steps forward. At the end of the red rope, by the light of sunset, he saw a green grass like a villain growing on the ground, about a foot high, with the red rope of the old monk tied to it. Huiyuan, the old monk, was very happy. Isn't this a ginseng tree? It's said that eating it can make you immortal. Why don't I eat it? So he carefully dug out the ginseng, put it in his arms, and went back to the temple according to the way he came. The next day, he set up a small pot in his secret room, put the ginseng in it, covered it tightly with the lid, ignited the fire and boiled the ginseng. For a moment, the fragrance was blowing in the temple. The little monk didn't know where the fragrance came from and talked about it one after another. Most of the monks said that it was falling from the sky, some said it was coming from the ground, but they didn't know the source of the aroma.

Besides, the old monk had cooked the ginseng for eating. Just then a good friend of the old monk invited him to the banquet. He said that he had something important to discuss with him and that he must go. The old monk thought, if you don't have to annoy your friends, you'd better go back quickly. He hid the pot in a corner and left with his friend.

As soon as the abbot left, the young monks came out to find the source of the aroma. Finally, he found the Abbot's secret room and found a pot in the corner. Several young monks secretly opened the lid of the pot and saw that there was a boiled ginseng in it. No matter what they did, they ate all the ginseng and left a pot of soup. At this time, they are afraid. What should monk Huiyuan do when he comes? After discussion, they came up with a way to deal with the old monk. They poured ginseng soup around the temple. If the abbot Huiyuan came back, he said he didn't know where ginseng was going. After a while, they all felt light, and the whole temple also had a miracle. They only saw that the whole temple left the ground and slowly floated to the sky until it reached the air. After Huiyuan said goodbye to her friends and came back, the original temple had become an open space, and there was nothing left. He looked up and saw that the temple in mid air was the same as the original one. His apprentice waved to him in the air.

Huiyuan had no choice but to recruit people from neighboring villages to rebuild the temple as it was and become the abbot himself. Gather the disciples to practice martial arts as usual, chant sutras and worship Buddha. Whenever people look up in the air, they can see the big temple in the air, just like the fairyland in the myth. Later, people handed down the story. According to the fact that the temple was close to the village, the temple and the village were named Tianyun temple for the convenience of later generations. The name of the village has been used until now.
