Huang Huang Jing Chu Yin, Wuhu Tour, Zheshan Ganjiang and Mo Xie Zhujian Chu
Zheshan is located in the northwest of Wuhu City. In the Yuan Dynasty, Ouyang Yuan's "Climbing Mount Zheshan" said: "It is better to be lonely and high-colored. Qi passes through Dan point fog, and light reflects Chicheng Xia. ..... "Visible Zheshan imposing manner, beautiful scenery. Ochre rocks are different, showing deep red, and some are even as red as agate. Legend has it that during the Warring States period, the generals of the Chu people and Mo Xie made swords here. The raging fire burned the rocks red, so it was named Zheshan Mountain. "Geography of Jiangnan" said: "Zheshan Danchi, so the county name is Danyang." It can be seen that the name of Danyang county is also taken from the color of ochre stone.
Sword is a traditional weapon in our country, and it once became a symbol of status: "The ancient emperors were crowned with swords at the age of twenty, princes at the age of thirty, and doctors at the age of forty; The servant is not allowed to be crowned, and Shu Ren does not bring a sword. " It is not easy to cast swords in ancient times, so many myths and legends have been derived, and the story of Mo Xie, a senior general, is one of them. At that time, when the couple were casting swords in Zheshan Mountain, the temperature dropped and the furnace condensed. Mo Xie cut off her hair and nails and put them into the furnace before casting two swords. The general takes out the sword, hammers it, and puts it into the Shenshan small pool for quenching, which is the sword quenching pool. The Book of Drawings says, "The general will quench his sword here, and there is a sword grinding pool on it." The lieutenant cut the blue-light sword at the boulder on the opposite mountain, and the boulder immediately split in half. This stone is the sword test stone, and the mountain has the name of "breaking the mountain". According to "Wu Yue Chun Qiu", which has been published for four years, there is indeed a person in the history: "Those who do it are Wu people. Being a teacher with Ou Yezi can be a sword. " The sword cast by the general is extremely sharp. Zhao Ce San, the Warring States Policy, says: "When a husband is a general's sword, the meat test will break the ox and horse, while the gold test will cut off the plate and strike it with a thin column, it will be broken into three, and when it is struck on a qualitative stone, it will be broken into a hundred." Mr. Lu Xun's "New Story Casting Sword" is based on this. Zheshan, the steelmaking base two thousand years ago, and Maanshan, the main steel base in Anhui Province today, are both in the color of Dan Chi, and the mountains are connected in one continuous line. As early as the Song Dynasty, there was a proverb that "iron makes its own steel in Wuhu". This earliest steel-making site in China and the world is really precious.
On the south mountainside of Zheshan Mountain, there is an ancient temple, Guangji Temple, which was built during the Tang Ganning period. It was originally named Yongqing Temple, also known as Guangji Temple. It was renamed Guangji Temple during the reign of Song Dazhong Xiangfu, and was rebuilt many times. Today, the existing temple was built during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of Tongzhi of Qing Dynasty. Guangji Temple, built on the mountain, is a four-fold temple with halls connected and layers higher, extending from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain. The whole building is magnificent and unique. Guangji Temple has a very special relationship with Jiuhua Mountain, a Buddhist holy place. According to "Wuhu County Records", Guangji Temple contains the seal of Jin Qiaojue, a monk who collects gold in Jiuhua Mountain. This seal was made of placer gold in the second year of Tang Zhide (757) to commemorate the gold deposit. It weighs more than 7 kg, and the head of the seal is engraved with nine dragons' play beads, and the words "the second year of Tang Zhide" are engraved on the front, which is a treasure of Guangji Temple. In the past, pilgrims who went through Wuhu to worship at Jiuhua Mountain all went to Guangji Temple to burn incense and worship, and put a gold seal on the sachet. The Dizang Hall of Guangji Temple was also built in imitation of the style of Jiuhua Mountain, so Guangji Temple, also known as "Xiaojiuhua Scenic" and "Jiuhua Palace", is full of incense.
At the highest point of Guangji Temple, next to the Dizang Hall, there is a unique two-story attic. There is a big juniper tree in front of the original door, so it is named "Ting Xuan". Later, it was renamed as "Di Cui Xuan" after the poetic expression of "green building is covered with beautiful green buildings, and wet green buildings are dripping with paintings". It is said that when Huang Tingjian, a poet of the Song Dynasty, lived in Wuhu, he once studied in Di Cuixuan because he loved the quiet environment and beautiful scenery here.
After the "Di Cui Xuan", there are towering pagodas, which are five stories high, with cornices and arches. This is the Zheshan Pagoda, which was built in Song Zhiping in 165. Every time after the rain, the haze is misty and misty, which is one of the eight famous scenes in Wuhu in ancient times, "Zheta Qinglan". Legend has it that the top of the Zheshan Tower was blown off by the strong wind, and it dripped when it rained. One day, a "cauldron" flew in, just covering the top of the tower. Huang Yue, a poet in Qing Dynasty, wrote this story in the poem "Zhuzhi Ci on the Lake": "The flying pot will cover the spire, and the wind will be silent for years." This thing is still on the top of the tower.
Zheshan Mountain, with its "right control of the river, rolling clouds and overlooking the city wall, is a picturesque place". Scholars and celebrities of all ages have left many poems praising Zheshan Mountain here. Huang Tingjian praised Zheshan as "the jade peak condenses everything, and the green calyx surrounds the snails".
