Huishan has thirteen springs in Kowloon, and Er Quan is the most famous. Huishan is a sandstone in Wu Tong. The spring water is filtered and contains many minerals. The water is transparent, sweet and delicious, and it is the treasure of brew tea. Lu Yu, a famous tea expert in Tang Dynasty, is the author of the first monograph on tea in China. He has tasted 20 kinds of springs all over the world, and thinks that the curtain water in Kang Wang Valley Cave in Lushan Mountain is the first, the new spring in Huishan Mountain in Wuxi is the second, and the water in Lanxi Stone in qi zhou is the third. Therefore, Huishan Spring is also known as Luziquan, and there is a "Luzi Temple" on the spring pavilion, which is the place where Wuxi people commemorate Lu Yu. According to Zhang's "brew tea Ji", Liu Boche, assistant minister of punishments, once said: Lingquan in the Yangtze River is the first, Hui Quan is the second, and Huqiu is the third. According to the introduction of ancient tea tasting experts Lu and Liu, Huishan Xinquan ranks second, so it is called "the second spring in the world".
Er Quan is divided into upper, middle and lower pools. The upper pool is octagonal, where the spring water is located and the water quality is the best. The middle pool is square, close to the upper pool. Both ponds are stone-bottomed bluestone fences, and the stone fences around the upper pond are very smooth, especially at the position where the feet step, and the stone fences are deeply sunk into several gaps, which is a record of people taking springs to make tea for thousands of years. The largest rectangular pond, the lower pond, was dug in the Ming Dow period of the Northern Song Dynasty. The pond is about 7m long,10m wide and 0.33m deep. It is located under Yilan Hall. On the evening of July and a half of the lunar calendar in autumn every year, a bright moon is reflected in the pond, which is a natural "two springs reflecting the moon". There is a stone beheaded by Ming Hongzhi on the wall of the pond, commonly known as the stone dragon head. It is the leader of the thirteen springs in Huishan Kowloon. Its shape is vigorous and simple, and the spring water flows into the square pond through the mouth, which is quite interesting. There is Taihu stone in front of the pool, which is called Guanyin stone in the world. On the right is the dragon lady stone with light sleeves, and on the left is the boy stone with folded hands. Under the stone tablet, there are four characters "Yan Hui" engraved. On the north wall of Fangchi, there is an inscription "The Second Spring in the World". Some people compare Lu Yu's comments on the spring, Su Shi's poems and Wang Shu's calligraphy, which are called "Er Quan's Three Musts".
There is another genre of music in the second spring of the world. Folk artist Hua (the blind)' s erhu solo "Two Springs Reflecting the Moon" can't help but make people enter the artistic conception of quiet night and clear spring in Leng Yue. After listening to the whole song, it is more like seeing that man, an upright and tenacious blind artist, telling people about his bumpy life.
Two: The second spring in the world is located in Wuxi, Jiangsu.
A melodious music "Two Springs Reflecting the Moon" takes you to the world-famous Er Quan, where you can soak a cup of Er Quan tea and drink it in your mouth, which is sweet and mellow. When you pour the tea carefully, you can also find that the tea is a few millimeters higher than the mouth of the cup without overflowing. This is because there are many minerals. Experts believe that the second spring water has the function of relieving annoyance and thirst and prolonging life. Huishan has many clear springs, which are called "Thirteen Springs in Kowloon" in history. Huishan Spring, located near Huishan Temple, was originally named Yilan Spring. According to legend, it was excavated by Lingjing City, Wuxi County in the late Tang Dynasty (AD 779). * * * There are two pools, the upper pool is round, the water is very clear, and drinks are all extracted here. Although the lower pool is connected by a vein, the water quality is not as clear as the upper pool. In the Tang Dynasty, Lu Yu sorted out 20 famous springs in the Book of Tea Classic, and Wuxi Huishan Spring ranked second. Liu, another water critic, said: "There are seven kinds of springs suitable for tea, and Huishan Spring is the second.". Since then, the name of "the second spring in the world" has been recognized by scholars and celebrities. Su Mian, a poet in Song Dynasty, visited Wuxi twice. Come and try the singing method of "Er Quan is the best in the world" to make Huishan shine in spring. Huishan Spring is well-deserved, with colorless and transparent spring water, low mineral content, excellent water quality and sweet taste. It is the best spring water.
Bright and clear, Er Quan has become a place for poets, scholars, dignitaries to taste tea, and poetry is endless. Especially in the early Ming Dynasty, when listening to the monk sea in An Sok, Huzhou bamboo workers were asked to make a round place, and a pot of dried Kun was used to form a bamboo stove, and Er Quan cooked tea to entertain guests. Wang Ji, a famous painter, painted bamboo stoves in the eighth year of Hongwugan (AD 1395). There is a poem saying: "Fire simmers mountain chestnuts, ice knocks to paint spring, tiles turn over white clouds, and bamboo smokes; A phoenix gave birth to armpits, and the Russian police became immortals! " It shows that it is dumping. In the 13th year of Zhengde in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 15 18), Wen Zhiming, a famous painter, made a picture of Huishan Tea Party with friends on February 19th in Tomb-Sweeping Day, which reappeared the scene of poets and painters brew tea and missing Mao Ting in a bamboo stove. This precious picture scroll,
Li Shen, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, liked the spring water in his hometown so much that he brought it to Beijing. After handing it over to Li Deyu, a friendly colleague and prime minister, it was sent to Chang 'an by express mail. Pi Rixiu, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty, compared Li Deyu's Love of Drinking Er Quan with Yang Guifei's Love of Litchi, and wrote an ironic poem: the Prime Minister often misses brew tea, and the county magistrate urges him to send it late; Don't laugh at Yang Fei's love of lychee, since Wuguan is three thousand miles to the country. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Huisong listed Er Quan as a tribute and entered a hundred altars every month. Su Dongpo, a famous poet, has a famous sentence: "Take the moon in the sky alone and try Er Quan on earth". Kangxi Qianlong went to Huishan Pinquan to write poems. A Bing, a blind folk musician in modern times, was displaced in Huishan and wrote a song "Two Springs Reflecting the Moon", which was widely circulated at home and abroad.
For thousands of years, the stone sill has been trampled by water carriers for more than ten centimeters. The center is the Spring Pavilion, with an upper pool and a middle pool. Above the Spring Pavilion is Jinghui Hall: under the Spring Pavilion is Yilan Hall, and in front of it is Xiachi. Upper pool, middle pool and lower pool constitute a complete water system of "the second spring in the world". The three pools are all made of exquisite bluestone railings with different shapes. The pool in the middle is square, close to the pool above, only three feet apart. The bottom of the stone is "flowing water, clear and lovely, but the water quality is better." On the pool under the pool, there is the "Er Quan Pavilion". Among them, Yuan Zhao Mengfu inscribed the Er Quan on Earth stone tablet. The lower pool is the largest, rectangular, and was excavated in the Ming Dow period of the Northern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1032- 103 1). The pool is two feet long, three feet wide and one foot deep, next to Yilan Hall. The wall of the pond was carved by Wuxi Shangong Yang in the early years of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, with a rich and simple shape. There are several Taihu stones in the pool, which are stacked into a statue of Guanyin fish, which is called "Guanyin stone" in the world. The short lake stones on the left and right, like Liangcai and Longnv, are relics of Gushan Villa in the Ming Dynasty, and moved here from Qianlong to Qianlong. On the north wall of Fangchi is the inscription "The Second Spring in the World", which was written by Wang Shu, a scholar and official of the Qing Dynasty during the Yongzheng period.
Tang Yilan is an ancient building above Fangchi in Er Quan, which was built in the Song Dynasty. Because Su Dongpo recited the sentence entitled "The dust is enough, one step at a time". The existing Yilan Hall is a wooden structure rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty, with three rooms and seven frames, resting on the top of the mountain and surrounded by cloisters. Yi Lan Tang Yier, by Fei Xinwo Zuo Bi. The couplets take Su Dongpo's poems, which were sealed by Zeng Keshu: Xueya asks me to admire; The water army should reimburse Hui Quan. There is Jinghui Hall on the Er Quan Pavilion, and there are three openings and seven stands on the top of Xieshan Mountain. The front of the hall is surrounded by corridors that stand precariously between the stone platforms. It turned out to be a deer temple to worship the tea god Lu Yu. There is a lacquer painting "Lu Yu Tea Painting" and a two-wall screen book "Huishan Temple" by Lu Yu on the hall screen door. Qian Yulin retells the book according to the old saying: Ten sages can't return, and once heard Song Feng recommend Qiu Ju; Er Quan is austere, having tasted spring tea brings fire. In front of the hall hangs a couplet written by Su Dongpo's poems: "Try Er Quan, there is a dark sinus in the Ming Pavilion; Take a small group of moons and taste Shanmingxi tea. "
On the edge of the second spring in the world, there is a moon cave gate that "accompanies spring" and "reflects the moon". Since then, there has been a long corridor called "Long Dragon Lying on the Slope", connecting a scenic spot with the north and the south. It is the Sui Chutang and Xilu Bookstore of many ministers of Nanjing Ritual Department. And Sui Chuchun. You Mao retired in his later years and returned to his hometown. He built several rafters in Qinwangwu, between Huishan and Xishan in his hometown, and named them Xilu Bookstore as a reading place. He also transformed the ancestral "Yishan Pavilion" into "Suichu Academy". The existing buildings, especially those built by later generations, are now three halls, standing on the cave doors of the "Hanging Rainbow" corridor, with cornices and carved windows, which are antique. The word "Xilu Bookstore" is engraved on the cave beam. An ancient building next to Er Quan is the Temple of Gong Jian in Juventus, and the Wanjuan Building is next to Er Quan. In his later years, You Mao took pleasure in copying books, accumulated 30,000 copies and hid them in Wanjuanlou. 1982 During the overhaul, Wan Mao's descendants were particularly interested, so they specially wrote an article "Wan Juan Lou Ji" and asked Huang Huaijue to carve a stone to stand on the wall. On both sides of the couplet, take Gu Guangxu's words: still studying at the west foot, crossing articles in the south, crossing Xiao Yang and Fan Lu on the upper side; Let Guishan Road chant, Lin Dongxian chant, and the same origin is Fujian Luoguan.
