"Three mountains don't stand out, two waters don't sail", which is the geomorphological feature of Heyang summarized by Duan Shicong, the magistrate of Heyang County in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty. It is easy to understand that "water can't sail" means that the amount of Jinshui and Xu Shui in Heyang is very small, just two streams. The so-called "mountains don't stand out" means that the mountains in Heyang are all earth-rock or earth-rock mixed mountains. From a distance, they look like round big steamed buns, not as steep as the rocky mountains outside, and the peaks are inserted into the sky.
The Records of Heyang County, written by Wei Tingyi in the 2th year of Ming Jiajing in the rare books library of Beijing Library, is an old collection of Jiguge, which is an isolated book in China, and it is the earliest local history of Heyang that can be seen at present. When the book records "Ruluoshan" in the "Mountains and Rivers" section, there is such a passage: "Ruluoshan is three miles south of the county. According to legend, when a peddler crossed this mountain, he got a green egg, put it in a box, and shelled it into a snake. The domesticated animal is a little bigger, so it is placed in the place where it was, and it is called the snake "Miluo". However, after the road was cut off, it was very biting, and Fang Zuozhong looked for a peddler and banned it. The peddler put his blade to the ground and reminded him to think. The snake led its neck and died. " The peddler kills pests for the people, and its meaning is admirable; Milk Luo Zhi committed suicide, and his behavior was respectable.
The east peak of Ruluo Mountain overlooks Jinshui River with beautiful scenery. Li Guan (Xiang Ruo), one of the "Eight Scholars in Guanzhong" in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, was unwilling to cooperate with the rulers of the Qing Dynasty. He lived in seclusion here, chiseled a cliff and cultivated land, which was called "Little Peach Blossom Garden", taking Tao Yuanming, Mr. Jingjie, as an example. Li Guan's contemporary poetess Lei Jinger (Mrs. Shi), whose husband ran away from home in anger, was told about her home. She sought her husband to go to Luoshan Temple here, pulled off the hair clasp on her head, and carved a poem on the brick wall, "The bells in the temple are far away, and the mountains are barren and stormy." Luoshan Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty, and its scale is huge. It is said that it can be compared with Famen Temple in Xifu. There was a saying that there was Famen Temple in the west and Luoshan Temple in the east. Luoshan Temple was demolished in the 195s, and the school was covered with wood and bricks. The blue bricks engraved with Mrs. Shi's poems also disappeared. Now there is only one square hollow brick tower built in the late Tang Dynasty, named Luoshan Temple Tower, which is a key cultural relic protection unit in Shaanxi Province. There is an earth tower on the left and right sides of the tower, and the three towers stand side by side, shaped like a penholder. In the past, geomantic omen was emphasized. The Luoshan Temple Tower was located in a high and open location, which can be seen in the south and southeast of Heyang County. It was called Heyang Wenfeng, but it was felt that Yifeng was too lonely. Therefore, it was the initiative of Kui, who worked as a court inspector in the Ming Dynasty, to build these two earth towers in the tenth year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (AD 1653) to supplement the context of Heyang.
