Why did Jiuzishan change its name to Jiuhuashan? What is the Bodhisattva Dojo?

Jiuhuashan, formerly known as Jiuzishan, the origin of Jiuhuashan has to start with Li Bai, a poet saint in the Tang Dynasty. Li Bai, a "good man who is sacred in all the five mountains and has never thought far, and has visited famous mountains all his life", has traveled all over the world and all over the country.

One early spring, Jiuzi Mountain was still covered with snow. Li Bai went straight to Qingyang from Qiupu via Wuxi. He was invited by his good friend Wei Zhongkan to visit Jiuzi Mountain.

Wei Zhongkan was very surprised to learn that Li Bai was coming, and repeatedly told the chief executive, "Hurry up! Come on! Come with me to meet Chen Xian! "

Early spring in southern Anhui. The weather was cold, and Zhong Wei climbed Qingquanling in one breath. He took a breath and went down to Wuxi to arrange delicacies and wine.

At this moment, I suddenly saw Li Bai dancing with a sword and singing and dancing. Wei Zhongkan was ecstatic and rushed forward and said, "Welcome Chen Xian, welcome Chen Xian!"

When Li Bai saw his old friend Wei Zhongkan, he thanked him again and again: "Stone, why is this between you and me?"

Wei Zhongkan said, "You are not far from Wan Li. You have come to this remote mountain to win glory for Jiuzi Mountain and Wei Zhongkan. You should come to see me in person. "

Li Bai said, "Look at you, the more you talk, the more you treat me as an outsider."

When they were seated in Wuxi Pavilion, Wei Zhongkan quickly ordered a banquet to welcome Li Bai. Li Baixian had a drink and even praised good wine and good wine. Wei Zhongkan said, "Even the ministers and ministers of state in the DPRK will never taste my fragrant wine. This is specially brewed for you! "

"You are a man of heart! All right, meet old friends and have a good drink! Come, I propose a toast, Shi! " Li Bai swallowed again.

Li drank too much white wine and talked too much, saying this and that: Shi, where is this?

"There are five streams flowing down Jiuzi Mountain, which become a stream flowing into the Yangtze River here, so this place is called Wuxi. This is Wuxi Pavilion, where pedestrians drink tea and overlook Jiuzi. Oh, what famous mountains have you fallen into recently? "

Li Bai said: "I wandered around Lushan some time ago and recently stayed in Qiupu Temple for a few days. Now Jiuzi is here, having a good time. Stone, do you know the origin of Jiuzi Mountain? "

"If it weren't for Xian Xian's asking, I almost forgot to introduce it." Wei Zhongkan told Li Bai about "The Legend of Nine Children Fighting Demons".

Li Bai said with great interest: "Dou County ordered the fishing of dragons to become immortals a long time ago, and Ge Hong in the Eastern Jin Dynasty practiced alchemy here. Now, which monks are practicing? "

Wei Zhongkan said, "Recently, a Silla king lived in Jin Qiaojue and came here to practice. Live in a cave, eat Polygonatum, believe in Bodhisattva, and set up the Dojo of the King of Earth and Tibet. "

After listening, Li Bai asked, "Can you go up the mountain and meet this monk?"

"This monk is Shi Fo. He once asked me to invite fallen immortals to get together in the mountains. "

"It seems that this monk is sincere, so we will go up the mountain to see him."

Wei Zhongkan quickly stopped him, saying that the road was blocked by heavy snow on the mountain, and he would accompany him to see the monk after Qingming. Wei Zhong was afraid that Li Bai would be disappointed after drinking too many cups. He was busy introducing the mountains in Wuxi and the magical Six Springs (the place name of Qingyang County) to Li Bai, saying, "The mountains in Wuxi are changing every day, please watch carefully." Li Bai opened his eyes and looked forward. He was very surprised. He saw mountains and peaks, beautiful mountains, faint smoke and misty fog. Busy asked: "What mountain is opposite?"

Wei Zhongkan said, "Opposite is Jiuzi Shuangfeng, and here is the Little Lotus Peak and the Big Lotus Peak. You can see it at a glance when you enter Liu Quan. "

Li Bai said: "The mountain is handsome and beautiful! Go to Liu Quan! "

Two people along the Wuxi river, into the six springs. Along the way, there are many strange rocks and mountains reflecting water. Li Bai couldn't help admiring: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Wei Chushi, it seems that Wuxi is the first scene of Jiuzi Mountain. "

Bai was very happy with his enthusiasm and said, "This is just the beginning, and the good days are yet to come." Said, and pointed out the six springs to Li Bai. Sure enough, six springs emerged from the ground, and the water rose higher and higher, like six flowers flying, very beautiful. Wei Zhongkan jokingly said, "Look at that! Six-water girl welcomes the immortal! "

Li Bai laughed: "Shi is really joking."

Wei Zhongkan said, "Chen Xian, look at the clouds and fog."

Li Bai looked up and saw the lotus peak standing in the clouds. The clouds fluttered and covered half of the peak, and soon it was swallowed up and turned into a vast expanse. After a while, the dark clouds cleared and the mountains appeared again. The scenery changes rapidly, and Li Bai is fascinated by it He said happily, "How do you know that Jiuzi Mountain is gorgeous if you don't go and see it yourself?" This Jiuzi Mountain is more beautiful than flowers and paintings. Look, it looks like a hibiscus! "

Wei Zhongkan quickly said: "Chen Xian's opinion is very similar, very similar."

Li Bai said, "Hibiscus is a flower. I want to change its name. What about the stone? "

Zhong Wei, eager to get it, quickly bowed down and said, "Just what I want, please give Jiuzi a name!"

Li Bai said, "How about changing its name to Jiuhuashan?"

Wei Zhongkan said, "Jiuhuashan, good, great!"

Since then, Jiuzi Mountain has been renamed Jiuhua Mountain.

Another one in Jiuhua Mountain is very legendary. Let me tell you something about it. Legend has it that in ancient times, it was an endless wasteland, where only one family named Min lived, an old couple and nine arrogant sons. Min's son takes his nine sons out in the dew every day, goes home with the stars and works hard to make this wasteland a treasure land with trees and fragrant rice.

One day, the old man Min was working in the field, when suddenly the wind blew hard, flying sand and stones, and a water column appeared in the middle of the field, and a green water demon stood in the water column. It bared its teeth and shouted at the old man Min: "Old man Min, this is my land, get out of here!"

Hearing this, the old man Min is really unreasonable. He retorted without fear: "This land belongs to my family, and the seedlings are planted by my family. How can it be yours? "

"Hey, where I want it, mine is there." As he spoke, the water demon spit out a fierce evil water and threw the old man to the ground. At this time, Jiuzi rushed over, you took the shovel and I took the sickle, and went forward to cut the water demon. When the water demon saw that the nine sons were as brave as tigers, he retreated to the ground. However, due to old age and infirmity, and the bad water in his stomach, old man Min fell to the ground and couldn't get up. When he died, he told his nine sons, "You must twist into a rope, kill the water demon and save our treasure!" " "Say that finish, just closed his eyes. Sad and angry, the nine sons buried their father's body in the middle of this treasure, determined to catch the water demon and avenge their father.

A few days later, the water demon stood on the rising water column again, shook his head and said, "Get out, nine boys!" " "

The nine brothers were furious when they saw the water demon. They gathered around the water demon together, trying to capture it alive. The water demon quickly spit out a stream of evil water and rolled towards them. Without blinking, the nine brothers approached the water demon step by step. The water demon used magic again, and suddenly there was a storm, but the nine brothers did not waver in the storm, and the Vietnam War became stronger. Seeing that the water demon was cunning, they were afraid that it would be difficult to catch it, so they pulled out a sickle and cut it. When the water demon saw it, he dodged and fled from the hole to the ground.

Later, the two brothers fought with the water demon several times, but the water demon escaped every time. Treasure land was washed away by water again and again and was destroyed. Nine brothers are very upset. They want to block the hole where the water flows. They are practicing swimming and archery skills.

One day, a strong wind blew over and made the sky dark. The water demon stood on the water column and screamed, "If you don't leave here soon, I will turn this place into an ocean!" " "In spite of the rushing water, the nine brothers rushed forward together and quickly blocked the hole with big stones. When the water demon saw him blocking the way, he made waves and rampaged, causing floods and mud flying all over the sky. Due to the poor water quality, all nine brothers were weak and out of breath. But they refused to give up, regardless of the bad water, chasing after them, throwing knives and arrows until the water demon was in a hurry. After playing for three hours, the water demon saw that he couldn't win, so he made a last move. It turns out that the water demon carries a magic water bottle with him. The bottle contains endless water. Once the bottle is broken, it will become the sea of Wang Yang. Seeing that all the returning holes were blocked, the water demon threw the magic water bottle at the big stone. At that moment, I saw a flash of lightning in the sky, which led the magic water bottle into the distance, and then a thunderbolt shattered the water demon. It was also at this time that this treasure land unexpectedly rose, rose, rose in Ran Ran until it rose into mid-air and became large and small mountains. It is listed in Jiu Feng, like a lotus. It turned out that the Big Dipper in the sky found the evil water demon on the ground, which not only used its divine power to get rid of the water demon, but also raised the terrain so that this land would no longer suffer from floods.

Except the water demon, the nine brothers work harder. Planting bamboo, wood and flowers on the hillside. Later, the nine brothers lived on the nine highest mountains to protect their forests, and later generations called this mountain Jiuzi Mountain. During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai, a great poet, visited Qiupu (now Guichi) and looked at the mountains from the river. Jiu Feng is as beautiful as a lotus flower out of water, so he invited some friends to visit Jiuzi Mountain, wrote down the poems of "Wonderful minutes, nine flowers bloom in Lingshan" and "Tianhe hangs green water, showing nine hibiscus flowers", and changed the name of the mountain to Jiuhua Mountain.

Finally, it is said that Jiuhua Mountain is the Dojo of the Tibetan King and Bodhisattva.
