Memory of Huaxi Park Inscription
In Guiyang, everyone knows the beautiful Huaxi; In West China, almost everyone has climbed or looked up, and has been close to the forest. Although Guiyang people are not familiar with the stone tablet at the foot of the forest mountain and the "gathering class" on the rock wall, it has become the essence of Huaxi.
Mottled forest mountain: lion turns into unicorn
Huaxi Park is surrounded by green water and trees, and tourists come and go, which is lively and peaceful. People who often come to the park know about the forest mountain, but few people know that it used to be called the forest mountain. Because it looks like a lion, it is named Lion Mountain. Lion Mountain has become a forest mountain, which is an interesting history.
There is a stone tablet at the foot of the mountain, covered with moss, and the handwriting is so dense and mottled that it is difficult to distinguish it completely. Only the top position says "The Story of Linshan". from
The information provided by Mr. Zhou Shiruo, a history research enthusiast in Guiyang, and the full text of "Lin Shan Ji" explain the past life of this mountain and the reason for its name change.
"My ancestral home is baiyang village, and there is a mountain in the east half of the village, like a lion. The old legend is Lion Mountain. Gu Yu read "Ten Kingdoms", with sharp claws, huge teeth, bronze head and iron forehead. Yu Shinan gave it to the lion, and the angle doesn't matter. After reading the poem, it means sparse. Moose is oxtail and horse's feet are round. Erya is interpreted as Lin, which means having horns. The argument between the lion and the forest is only the tip of the argument. We are at the top of reach for the sky, which is hundreds of miles away ... Lin! Lin! What doubts does the husband have? "
After reading this article, the author thinks that although the shape of the forest mountain looks like a lion, it was called the Lion Mountain in ancient times. However, because many literary classics think that the difference between a lion and a unicorn lies in the horn on the head, and because of this horn, Linshan should be renamed Linshan. A forest mountain also left the legend that Kirin lingered on the beautiful scenery of Huaxi and gave birth to "Kirin Zen" (a mountain next to Huaxi Primary School).
Renamer Zhou Kui didn't just change his name.
Zhou Kui, the author of The Story of the Forest, turned the lion into a unicorn. This renaming person not only renamed Lion Mountain as Linshan, but also endowed the name with spirituality. The beautiful face of Huaxi today is largely attributed to this person.
Who is Zhou Kui? According to Zhou Shiruo, Zhou Kui is a very important figure in the history of Guiyang.
Zhou Kui lived between 174 1 and 1822 during the Qing Dynasty. This family entered the DPRK as an official during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and moved from Bijie to Baiyang (Yang) village in West China, which is now Jilin village in West China. When Zhou Kui was a child, his father died and his family was very poor. In order to survive, he took his brothers and sisters to work in the fields. But this man likes reading, and he often reads between ridges. His mother encouraged him to study many times, and poverty forced Zhou Kui to continue studying. Later, Zhou Kui became a successful man, leaving many famous works: Li Ming, Li Ming, Lin Shan Ji, Xian Dong Ji and Family Instructions. Under the strict family instruction of Zhou Kui, several generations of Zhou family not only produced two juren and three Jinshi, but also the Qing government specially set up memorial archways. (It was reported in this newspaper's memory edition "Old Buildings, Old Times")
Zhou Kui's family once lived in Huaxi and liked the beauty there, so they successively built buildings in Linshan, pavilions in Guishan, cypresses and double pavilions in Sheshan, and piled stones in the river as dams, storing water as ponds, digging shallow islands as continents and repairing gaps as islands. Under the artificial design and construction, the beauty of Huaxi landscape has gradually formed today.
The cliff of the forest mountain is engraved with "the lessons and accumulation of life"
In the story of Lin Shan, besides Zhou Kui's renaming, there is also a cliff that remembers history. Not far from the stone tablet of Lin Shan Ji, you can see a relatively flat cliff with four big characters engraved on it: the lesson of life and gathering. The four characters are arranged up and down, and the scarlet color fills the notch, which is very clear. Small print is engraved on the left and right, recording the sculptor and the carving time. The inscription is "Gong Liu, the county magistrate, thinks about the sword soul". "This is the most political cliff stone carving in Guiyang." Zhou Shiruo said that the carving time was during the Republic of China (1936). China at that time, at home and abroad. After the September 18th Incident, northeast China entered the era of Japanese colonial rule. In this context, Liu Jianxun, then the county magistrate of Zhu Gui, wrote a "program of birth", expressing the hope that the people and army of China would unite as one, gather strength and work hard to wash away the shame.
Liu Jianxun's national identity, the historical background of lettering, and the * * * knowledge of ordinary people in China at that time all made this cliff meaningful.
Zhou Shiruo believes that in Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Ding was used as an inscription to record important events. Later, it became a memorial culture in ancient China. Although many years have passed since Lin Shan's "Outline of Birth", the determination of the whole nation to resist aggression still needs to be remembered.
Liu Ming "Huaxi" Qingshan pays for leisure.
In addition to permanently inscribing "Lessons and Convergence of Life" in West China, Jianshui Liu's contribution to West China is not limited to this.
According to the information provided by Zhou Shiruo, in 24 years of the Republic of China, Liu Jianxun was appointed as the county magistrate of Guiyang County. In 25 years of the Republic of China, he instigated the local construction committee to open Huaxi Scenic Area, personally planned the inspection, raised funds, built roads and pavilions, and planted trees and flowers. It was suggested that Hua Gelao (formerly known as Hua Gelao because of the concentration of Gelao people in Huaxi) be renamed as "Huaxi", and the word "Huaxi" was inscribed at the northern end of Huaxi Bridge. From 1938 to 1939, Liu Jianxun, the county magistrate of Zhu Gui, turned this section of Fangzhou into a scenic spot.
For the love between Huaxi and Linshan, Liu Jianxun left behind not only the Huaxi Park he planned today, but also many words. Among them, he wrote about Linshan: the building is between ten Chung Shan Man in central Guizhou, and the birds at the fence return to the clouds. Lin delayed, making countless thoughts, and the curtain rolled up the Mid-Autumn Festival. Nine branches are flourishing, and a stone of moss is gorgeous. I laughed at Wang for thinking that I was young, so the green hills are there, and I am not afraid of burning without firewood.
Nowadays, even though tourists rarely linger on the story of Lin Shan, the lessons of life and party, and don't know the souls of Zhou Kui and Liu Jian, when they visit Kambayashiyama and look at Huaxi at the top of the mountain, they can still feel the "so green hills are so leisurely" written by Gong Liu.
