Yuji's Tomb, a provincial key cultural relics protection unit, is located 7.5 kilometers east of the county seat, and is the tomb of Xiang Yu's Aiji. According to Historical Records, in 202 BC, Xiang Yu was trapped by the Han army. In the evening, he heard that the Han army was under siege and expected that the great event had gone, so he had a generous lament at night, and the concubine and the "Han soldier" were slightly stunned and besieged. Your majesty is exhausted and can't live with his concubine. "Bayin committed suicide and was buried here by his Ministry. The cemetery covers an area of 3,942 square meters, and the tombs and tombstones have been repaired. Gatehouses and fences are built outside the cemetery, and exhibition halls, lawns and stone tablets are built inside for people to visit, inhabit or splash ink.

Lingbi Stone, also known as Qingshi (Bayin Stone), is produced in Pingchou, the northern foot of Qingshi Mountain, Yugou Town, this county. Wan Du, a poet in Song Dynasty, collected 1 16 kinds of stone products in Yunlin Stone Spectrum, among which Lingbi stone ranked first. "Lingbi stone is wonderful in the world, and its sound is like bronze jade", which is the heartfelt admiration of Yan Fang, a poet in the Song Dynasty. The development of Lingbi Stone has a history of 3000 to 4000 years, and Gong Yuzai, a senior minister, "floats on the shore"; During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, there was a record of a court musical instrument made of Lingbi stone carvings-a tiger-patterned stone chime; In the Book of Jin, the emperor ordered Xie Shang, the general of Zhenxi, to come to Lingbi to choose stones for the left side of the great river ... Lingbi stone has more exotic ornamental stones besides stones, and its origin is not limited to Qingshishan, mainly distributed in the northern part of the county, such as Lingjue Mountain, chao yang shan, baimashan, Ermao Mountain, Shaoshan Mountain and Jiuding Mountain. Judging from the produced Lingbi stone, its real charm lies not only in its inherent aura and magical shape, but also in its quality, shape, color and grain, which has high artistic appreciation value, so Emperor Qianlong once praised it as "the first stone in the world".

Zhong Kui painted the well-known story of Zhong Kui playing the ghost. It is more appropriate to represent Zhong Kui as Lingbi, and Zhong Kui painted by Lingbi is the portrait of his original image, and there is a saying that a "living Zhong Kui" is produced every year. This statement has also been verified in ancient books. Jin Zhi, a famous scholar in the early Qing Dynasty, once recorded in his book "Essential Belt": "... Zhong (Ben) is a wise man, and his descendants are still in the world, mostly painting their ancestors with vermilion and feeding on goods. There is a county sign, and Youling should be a cloud. " Zhong Kui, shown in Ling Bi's paintings by Zhong Kui, is brave and ferocious, and has a kind of boldness of vision that he dare not be an enemy. On the basis of continuing the tradition, Lingbi Zhong Kui's paintings have gradually formed a "sword-shaped eyebrows and tiger eyes", with a broad campus, rough and powerful, forceful and compelling, with no lack of charm in coarseness and elegant and unrestrained in heroism. With the passage of time, the theme of creation has become more colorful. On the eve of liberation, the folk painter Han Bengui's Hundred Paintings was published in Shanghai Shenbao, and the modern painter Zhao's new Hundred Paintings Long Scroll was once again presented to the world. Their similarity lies in their strange images, innocence or lines.
