Go to Luting Dongbin Spring Text | Wang Xiangjun In the first month of the year, teacher Xie Xiaolong from Wangxi Middle School sent a message: Do you have time to go to Luting Dongbin Spring for a walk?
It's a rare moment of leisure, so just go.
Regarding Dongbin Spring, check the "Tongcheng County Chronicles" written in the 7th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty. It is recorded in the county chronicles: Lu Quan is located in Lu Pavilion, fifteen miles east of the county. It irrigates more than a thousand acres of farmland. It is said that Lu Dongbin inserted his sword out of it.
It turns out that the person who dug the spring was Lu Dongbin, one of the eight immortals. The immortal was an immortal, and he opened the spring with a sword.
There is a Lutiao platform in Tongcheng, and the legend is also related to Lu Dongbin.
Dongbin Spring was called Luquan in ancient times.
Tongcheng local writers have written many exquisite words about Dongbinquan.
It's a pity that I came late.
The distance from Tongcheng to Luting is not far, so there is no need to drive. I can just ride a battery car and ride there slowly. Nothing will happen anyway.
On the road, the flow of cars and people began to gradually decrease, and the wind flying in the early spring was particularly gentle.
In the past, Pingtan was a trading center for used cars. If there were any parts missing from the cars, they would come here to buy them.
Of course, the market has long since exited, and peace has returned to peace.
The water in the King Lu River divided into several forces on the wide river bed, and they fled with their heads in their hands.
The fluffy water plants are filled with intoxicating greenery.
After crossing Lushi Bridge, go right and enter Luting Old Street.
Teacher Xie Xiaolong first took me to see the old site of Chunyang Tower. Chunyang is Lu Dongbin.
Flying swords come out, springs gush, and people laugh. The locals will definitely build a tower to commemorate Lu Chunyang's achievements.
There is no record of when the tower was built or when it was destroyed.
Except for a vegetable patch and a well, there is nothing else on the old site. Perhaps the huge tower base is buried underground.
Passing through the railway culvert and entering the village on the right hand side, you can see two ancient trees in the distance. Teacher Xie said that under the trees is Dongbin Spring.
There are several women washing vegetables, beating clothes and chatting by the spring.
The spring pool is in the shape of a longevity peach, with grass embankments on the southeast sides, vegetable gardens on the north, stone base on the west bank, and a square garden of half an acre. The water is several meters deep and the water is clear.
There are two sacred trees, Gu Maple and Lao Liu, guarding the side.
Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty recorded this myth in "Tongcheng County Chronicles": During the Xiantong period of the Tang Dynasty, Lu Dongbin passed by Luting during his travels. It was a time when there was no rain for a long time, and it was difficult for people and animals to drink water. A woman in a village had a sick mother-in-law, and her husband went out again.
, It was very difficult to carry water for drinking from the river several miles away. Lu Dongbin said pitifully: "The sky has no way to stop people, and there is a sweet spring here. Filial piety moves the heaven and the earth, and the bitter water also becomes sweet." Then he pulled out his sword and inserted it into the ground, and instantly a sweet spring came out.
It gushes out from here, clear and sweet, and people build stone pools to enjoy it.
When you look up, you can see the sky, which is blue and clear; when you look down, you can see the water, and the spring water is clear; when you listen carefully, you can hear the story of thousands of years.
There is also a Earth Temple beside the spring, where people pray for good weather.
To this day, the spring water is still flowing tirelessly day and night, nourishing the water and soil here.
