On the north side of the temple garden, there is a well preserved stone tower, called "longevity tower"; on the south side of the temple garden, there was originally a "four sages Temple". According to records, Zhao Ding, the famous Prime Minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, and fan Chong, the great scholar of the Southern Song Dynasty, came to Changshan with Gaozong in 1127 because of the Jin soldiers' escaping from the chaos and lived in Yongnian Temple of Huanggang mountain.

According to local villagers, Zen master zuluohan Guichen, the first generation of Song Dynasty abbot of Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, came from Wanshou temple. It is recorded in the old history that the Buddhist master Guichen of Luohan, Li's son of Changshan, was born in Wanshou Temple of Changshan. Later, he inherited xuansha's master and taught his disciples cool culture, which played an important role in the history of Chinese Zen. The predecessor of today's Wanshou temple is called Wanshou temple. According to the temple of Changshan county annals written by Guangxu of Qing Dynasty, "Wanshou temple is located in Huanggang mountain, 35 miles north of the county. It's been a long time. During the reign of Longqing in the Ming Dynasty, monks raised money for construction. In the 45th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Seng Liru and Tianzhi were rebuilt. In the 11th year of Xianfeng, it was destroyed. In the sixth year of Tongzhi reign, monk zhuoran led Zhiqin to raise money and donate it. "

In 1990, "Changshan county annals, cultural relics and temples" recorded: "Wanshou temple is located in Huanggang mountain, his hometown. It is an ancient temple in the Southern Song Dynasty. It's been a long time. It was rebuilt in the Longqing period of Ming Dynasty. It was rebuilt in 1706. Because the Mei family of Shexian County in Anhui province became a nun here, it is called Wanshou nunnery. In 1766, Qianlong rebuilt the main hall. At the same time, Dabei Pavilion and Sixian temple were built. Guanyin hall was built behind the main hall, which is still called Wanshou temple. In the sixth year of tongzhi (1867), monk zhuoran raised money to rebuild. Since then, it has been in disrepair for a long time and has been damaged by the cultural revolution. Since 1987, Huanggang village has raised funds to build some houses, with more than 100 square meters of the side hall and the remains of the main hall. "

Before he married the girl, he worked as a teacher. Unexpectedly, he died in a foreign land. After hearing the news, the girl was so sad that she came to the village to cry. She cried to the gods and ghosts. The girl said clearly that she would die for her love. When her family heard about it, they tried to dissuade her in many ways. The girl responded, "a woman of chastity and martyrdom is one and the same. I swear not to serve her husband!"

The girl was determined to die for love. On a misty morning, when her family didn't pay attention, she came to the marsh Lake in the village and went to the Qingchi lake. Unfortunately, a wisp of fragrant soul died. After the girl threw herself into the pond, her family didn't see her whereabouts overnight. She was worried and thought of the marsh Lake in the village. The girl's mother knelt down by the lake and cried, "girl, if you are dying for love and want to become a Buddha, let the water in the lake stink for three days, smell for three days, and then come out of the lake."

Sure enough, it worked. The lake began to smell for three days from the next day, and then for another three days, during which the smell could be heard everywhere in the village. After that, the girl's body really floated up from the lake. When the family brought it up, they found that her face was fresh and her body was fragrant. Everyone was so surprised that they thought it was a miracle. So, with a water tank, the girl was put up and buried in the low house beside the marsh Lake (now he's Niangniang Temple).

Later, the girl's story was known by the lecherous magistrate. One day, the county magistrate and his party came to the hut on horseback. They saw the girl in the VAT, her skin was ruddy and glossy, just like a living person. For a moment, they put out their hand to the girl's arm. Suddenly, the girl's arm exuded red blood. The magistrate was surprised and didn't take it for granted. Unexpectedly, he died in a sedan chair on an arch bridge less than 500 meters away from Huiya! This matter quickly spread, everyone said that this is a young girl to punish lust. At that time, the miracle of the girl spread in all the townships. People began to call the girl "He Jia Niangniang" and raised money to build "He Jia Niangniang Temple". Because the girl was born on the second day of February, this day of the year is designated as "February 2nd temple fair", also known as "he Niangniang Temple Fair".
