When Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was a monk in Baizhang Temple, he went to the back mountain to dig stones and draw water, where he found the source and wrote the word "true source", Longpan Stone, located in the back mountain of Baizhang Temple. It is said that the Zen master Huaihai often meditates on this stone, because the Zen master has a real practitioner called the Dragon Elephant Talent, and Tang Xuanzong, who is called the Dragon Panshi, often meditates here.
