Wudang Mountain’s “deadly” incense burner and Zhenshan peach wood sword

Many people have traveled to Wudang Mountain. I wonder if you have ever been to Nanyang Palace Cliff? There is a famous scenic spot "Dragon Head Incense" here. Many people have come here to offer incense for hundreds of years. Because the incense burner of this dragon head incense is located on a dragon-carved stone beam, the stone beam extends 2.9 meters in the air and is about 30 centimeters wide. In ancient times, people were required to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to offer incense. The person offering incense slowly climbed out on his knees along the narrow body of the dragon. After offering incense, he kneeled back and returned. The stone beams were carved with patterns of auspicious clouds, which were not flat. , and there is an abyss underneath. Over the years, many devout incense burners have died here, so this is also called the "life-killing" incense burner.

Until the twelfth year of Kangxi, Governor Cai Yurong ordered the erection of a monument "No Burning of Faucet Incense" and banned the burning of faucet incense, which saved many people's lives.

Another famous attraction in Wudang Mountain, the "Zhenshan Peachwood Sword" is next to the dragon head incense and hanging on the cliff of Nanyang Palace. It is said that this sword is 700 years old and is still intact. Who put this up? According to legend, this was hung by Lu Dongbin when he came here to play chess. The side of the sword was covered with circles, which were chess pieces.
