The one from Hua Tuo’s hometown?

Bozhou is famous everywhere because it is the hometown of Hua Tuo. According to research, Hua Tuo's birthplace was Xiaohuazhuang, Huatuo Town, Qiaocheng District today. Huazu'an in the urban area was Hua Tuo's residence at that time. So, why did Hua Tuo move out of Xiaohuazhuang? Go north along National Highway 105, from an intersection in Huatuo Town, Qiaocheng District, and walk about two miles east to Xiaohuazhuang. The rainy weather for days has made the path leading to the village a little muddy. When the reporter walked across a dilapidated small bridge made of blue bricks, he happened to meet several residents of Xiaohuazhuang who were about to go out. "Is this Xiaohuazhuang, Hua Tuo's birthplace?" the reporter asked. "Yes, it is right here. The small bridge behind you is the bridge built by the residents at the north end of the village to facilitate Hua Tuo's passing. It is called Pingxin Bridge, which means that Hua Tuo has good medical ethics, and he relies on it to treat patients. Conscientious and meticulous! The ditch under the bridge is called Pingxin Ditch. Following the gestures of the villagers, the reporter looked at the small arch bridge again, and it seemed that Hua Tuo was walking on the muddy path with a medicine box on his back. The scene of crossing a small bridge. "Wu Qin Xi was created by Hua Tuo. It is said that there were ruins of the Wu Qin Xi stage in the village before, right?" Farewell to the villagers, the reporter walked into the village and searched around the village but found no stage ruins. The reporter found an old man named Hua in the village. consult. The old man said that there used to be a good stage here, but it has disappeared as time goes by. So, where is the old house where Hua Tuo was born? According to this villager, there is a place at the north end of the village that the locals commonly call "Huazu Temple". It is said that this is the homestead where Hua Tuo was born. Is "Huazu Temple" a temple? When was it built? Who built it? With doubts, the reporter inquired all the way and finally found the "Huazu Temple" close to the roadside at the northernmost end of the village. "Huazu Temple" is Hua Tuo Temple. Walking across a small bridge across the ditch on the roadside, you will see what people call "Huazu Temple" in front of you. There is a rectangular bluestone on the east side of the temple entrance, with the words "Hua Tuo's Old House" written in black characters on it. There are three characters "Hua Tuo Temple" written directly above the temple door. It turns out that "Hua Tuo Temple" as people call it is Hua Tuo Temple. Pushing open the red door and walking in, he walked into the main hall along a straight road paved with blue bricks. In the middle of the hall is a white statue of Hua Tuo. On the east wall hangs a portrait of Hua Tuo holding a candle and reading at night, called "Portrait of Hua Tuo". On both sides are the words "A generation of miraculous doctors have made great contributions and have a good appearance, and their love for thousands of years has been preserved in their hometown." ” words. The west wall of the main hall is covered with red banners. The words "Compassion helps the world, and the merits will last for thousands of years" reveal people's respect and love for the Chinese ancestors. Quan Shunlian, an old man who has been guarding the temple for 17 years, pointed to the doors and windows that were repainted with red paint and told reporters that this place was once badly damaged, and after several repairs, it became what it is today. "Is the location where this temple is located the birthplace of Hua Tuo?" "Yes, this is verified by experts. Hua Tuo was born here back then. Now there are more than 200 people with the surname Hua in Xiaohuazhuang, and they are all Hua Tuo. A descendant of Tuo. I am a native of this village," the old man told reporters proudly. Quan Shunlian is 66 years old this year. She has lived with her grandmother in Xiaohuazhuang since she was a child (her grandfather’s surname is Hua). Perhaps she has the blood of a miracle doctor. She and her lover (who has passed away) are both doctors. Not only that, Xiaohuazhuang Many villagers are very interested in medicine, and the villagers here have planted most of their crop fields with platycodon, white peony and other Chinese medicinal materials. "Then do you know when Hua Tuo moved out from here? Did he move to Huazu Nunnery in the current urban area?" When the reporter asked the old man these questions, the old man shook his head and said she didn't know. However, the old man pointed out to the reporter that Mr. Yan Yu, a painter in our city, is very particular about this period of history. Mr. Yan Yu planned and built the Huatuo Temple. "In what year was Huatuo Temple built? What did its original site look like?" After meeting Mr. Yan, the reporter asked curiously. According to Mr. Yan, Hua Tuo’s birthplace had been battered by wind and rain for many years, and by 1983, only traces of a courtyard wall remained on the ground. In order to prepare for the National Hua Tuo Academic Symposium held in Bozhou the following year, the The original Bo County Party Committee, County Government and local government jointly funded the construction of the Hua Tuo Temple that is now in front of people. So, are the remaining courtyard wall ruins Hua Tuo's main residence? How did people verify that Hua Tuo was born here? It is said that the current Huazu Temple in the city is where Hua Tuo grew herbal medicine and lived. So, why did Hua Tuo move out from his hometown? Regarding these questions, Yan Lao, who is a librarian of the Anhui Provincial Literature and History Research Center and has been engaged in Hua Tuo research for more than 20 years, explained them to reporters one by one. Mr. Yan said that according to historical records, Hua Tuo's ancestors were officials of the Song State (in Shangqiu, Henan Province) during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Later, Hua Tuo's ancestors were sealed in "Hua" land, that is, Xiaohua Village (about one or two thousand years ago). In the past, this place belonged to Shangqiu, Henan Province), as evidenced by historical data (food was collected in China). According to research, the original site of Hua Tuo Temple was the birthplace of Hua Tuo, and the surname Hua appeared in the history books from then on. Descendants of Shennong, who was named the ancestor of medicine, set up a tomb in today's Bozhou during the Western Zhou Dynasty. Shennong's spirit of trying hundreds of medicines a day and even getting poisoned in order to study Chinese herbal medicine deeply moved the young Hua Tuo. Later, Hua Tuo, who determined to become the successor of Shennong, moved his family to Bozhou and devoted himself to studying traditional Chinese medicine, and finally became a miracle doctor. His residence is now Hua Zu'an. "I heard that Huazu Nunnery was built in the Tang and Song Dynasties, why not the Han Dynasty?" the reporter asked.

"Hua Tuo wanted to perform a craniotomy on Cao Cao, who had a headache that had not healed for a long time. Cao Cao suspected that he wanted to kill himself, and killed Hua Tuo in Xuchang, Henan (Hua Tuo's grave is also here). After Hua Tuo's death, he was forced by Cao Cao's rule "Although people respected Hua Tuo, they did not dare to build a temple to commemorate him. It was not until the Tang and Song Dynasties that people built Huazu Nunnery here," said Mr. Yan. "Why is it called a 'nunnery' and not a temple or an ancestral hall?" the reporter asked curiously. "Hua Tuo has been a doctor all his life and does not want to be an official. To be precise, his identity is a commoner and he has no official position. After the temple was built, a nun came to preside over the temple, and Hua Zu'an got its name from this ." Mr. Yan introduced.
