The origin of the ancient Chinese fir king;
According to legend, a long time ago, the ancestors of the villagers lived here in order to resist the "wind evil" from the northwest canyon and protect the peace of the village, so as to establish a foothold in Kang 'an and reclaim the countryside. The villager Qi Xin Qi Xin planted this Chinese fir seedling together, which is also called "Fengshui Forest" by the people. Because the villagers live on the ground and there is a fir forest below, the rich water in the village is irrigated all the year round, year after year, and it is protected and managed from generation to generation, which greatly improves the soil conditions and makes its growth and development particularly vigorous.
In the past, there was a rich man in the county. Because he built a big house with five halls and six courtyards, he sent people everywhere to find good Chinese fir as the pillars of the house. After many twists and turns, he learned that there was a huge Chinese fir forest in Shiliao Village. If they get the treasure, the rich are willing to pay a big price and promise to buy four extra-large Chinese fir trees with a bucket of silver (1500 ocean). The ancestors of the Zheng family in the village, although poor, loved the forest as much as their lives, refused to cut down a Chinese fir tree, and flatly refused the rich man's deal.
