How did the old place names and Monk Bridge in changge city come from?

There is a bridge at the entrance of Wuzhou Village in Yiting Town, which is called "Monk Bridge". It is said that this bridge is also called "Crossing the Monk Bridge". Long ago, there was no bridge on this river. There is a temple in the north of the river and a small village in the south of the river. There is a wealthy family in the village. One year, the male owner (member) of this family suddenly fell ill and died suddenly. The young hostess was in pain, but she couldn't come back to life. She had to ask her servant to invite some monks from the temple on the north bank of Hebei to cross over the dead.

Forty-nine days later, the husband was buried and the monks returned to the temple. But I didn't expect that one of the immortal monks was particularly handsome and won the favor of the hostess. A few days later, the young monk visited late at night and was well received by the hostess. In this way, the young monk often comes and goes, and water comes every time. As the weather turns cold, the young monk is shivering with cold every time he wades to her house, and the hostess keeps him warm with her warm body every time. Her son is only a teenager. Seeing his mother do such a thing, he hates and grieves for her. He wisely spent money to build a bridge over the river to facilitate monks to come and go, instead of wading across the river. A few years later, my son became a court official in high school. After returning home, he arrested and killed the monk. Afterwards, someone asked: since you hate this monk, why do you want to build a bridge across the river for him? He said: build a bridge for the mother, kill the monk and avenge the father. Since then, this bridge has been named "Monk Bridge".
