Lingling Lumingtang Village is located in Shuzipu Township, Lingling District. It is an ancient village where fairy deer and fairy geese mingle, auspicious phoenixes appear, and Qier Peak listens to the roar of deer. Two small rivers, Baishui and Ganshui, wind in front of the village, with Daxing Mountain at its back. There is a poem that says: "The two dragons gather together in front of the door, and the sky is in great bloom behind the house. The golden rooster sings early on the left, and the three more on the right wish birthdays." The village is located in the fields, shaped like a fairy goose hatching an egg. The entire village has a reasonable layout, exquisite construction craftsmanship, and is closely integrated with the surrounding natural environment. The mountains, water, and pastoral scenery complement each other. It is a typical ancient village in Lingling Village.
? The original ancestor of Lumingtang Village, Fengwu Gong, was named "Rensilang", with the courtesy name Fengwu and his nickname Cigu. He was originally from Egongjing, Jiangxi Province. During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, he was an official in eastern Guangdong. When traveling, the road passes through Yuxi River forever, Bu lives in Xintangjiao, and then moves to Lumingtang." It is said that when Feng Wugong was playing along the stream, he discovered that the peaks near Daxing Mountain were very similar to his hometown of Bijiashan Mountain, and decided that this place was an extremely difficult-to-find Feng Shui treasure. So his family moved here and settled next to Hejia Village at the foot of the mountain. He was the founder of this place. The genealogy of the Chiang clan in Lumingtang records that the ancestor, Rentian Lang's grandfather, was appointed by the court to guard thousands of households and was ordered to conquer Jiangxi. After a great victory, he was awarded by the court and given an official and land in Jiangxi, so he settled in Jiangxi. In order to commemorate his hometown, Renshiro, who had a gathering, discussion and banquet in Fujian, Jiangxi Province, named it Luming Hall, and named the well in front of the house Luming Well. Since then, the history of more than 600 years of farming culture, inheritance and reproduction of the Chiang family has been written.
? In his later years, Feng Wugong lived in the fields and raised several sika deers. He herded them at sunrise and called them at sunset. They were kept in captivity in the hall. Because of the scenery and business, he named the Deer Ming Hall, and outsiders could hear it from afar when they entered the village. The sound of deer crowing, and the village is also named after deer.
Good mountains and good waters produce talents, and the Jiang family has produced capable people in large numbers over the past 600 years. The Lumingtang Jiang family genealogy "Jin Shen Lu" is full of several pages. From generation to generation, many people have been officials and scholars. There were once erected horse-hanging stakes beside the ancient Xianggui Road at the entrance of the village for civil and military officials to tie their horses. Now they are scattered across the small river in front of the village and serve as stone bridges. In the early years, there was also a general sword in the village, which weighed more than 120 kilograms. Generations of men in the village were proud to be able to dance with this sword in the village hall.
? The existing dwellings and ancient city walls of the original Lumingtang Natural Village were built in the early Qing Dynasty and have a history of more than 300 years. They are in the architectural style of ancient dwellings in southern Hunan, with the ancestral hall as the center point, and several rows on the left and right side by side. Built according to the terrain. They all have hard tops and gables built with blue bricks. Each row of houses is compact and has its own courtyard. A 2-meter-wide alley is paved with stone slabs between adjacent courtyards. The entire courtyard is surrounded by stone walls from the north to the south. There are four gates on the east and west sides to prevent bandits and theft.
? The ancestor of the Jiang family, Jiakaigong (also known as Bingzheng), stood up and entered the house in two rows and three, and put up the beams at the same time. On the auspicious day of Liang Liang, many squires and officials from far and near sent plaques and congratulatory gifts. Jiang Fangzheng, the supervisor of the Yellow River Embankment in the Qing Dynasty, personally came to deliver plaques and congratulations. Duke Jiakai once left a will: the descendants must have one hundred people to divide their families. Following this instruction, the descendants of the Jiang family have lived in the dining hall for several generations, living in harmony and unity, and prospering from generation to generation.
