Shengshan Temple has a history of several years.

There are many beautiful legends about the Holy Mountain Goddess. Like Mazu in Tianhou Palace, she did a lot of good for our ancestors. More than 400 years ago, when the sacred mountain was still between land and sea, she lived in a cave on the mountain and made a living by men fishing and girls spinning. Her life is easy. But at night and in bad weather, she always lights a lamp on the top of the mountain to guide fishing boats and merchant ships to return safely. She is a lighthouse. She is cheerful, popular, helpful and virtuous, so she enjoys a good reputation for dozens of miles in Fiona Fang, Fiona Fang. People will ask her for help when they are in trouble. She always gives everything she wants and never gives in. She is a philanthropist. When there is a dispute between neighbors, she will solve it. She is a mediator. It's a pity that she only lived to be 7 1 year old, which is really good luck. It is said that when no one lights a lamp after her death, as long as you say "Blessed by the Empress" in your heart, a lamp will light up on the mountain to guide you home. In the future, The Holy Mountain, The Goddess of the Holy Mountain and The Magic Lamp are very popular, and everyone in Shiliba Township knows it. Soon after, in order to repay her kindness, the ancestors built a holy mountain temple to worship her. The temple is named after the mountain, and the mountain is thriving because of the temple. Shengshan is famous.

The first time I went to Shengshan Temple was one year before school. /kloc-in the autumn of 0/946, my third brother and I went to burn waste paper. Hometown people have great respect for Confucius, and think that waste paper written well (calligraphy) can't be burned casually, otherwise it is disrespectful to Confucius and you can't study hard. Third brother was carrying a basket of waste paper, and I followed closely. Shengshan Temple is two kilometers away from my home. I think it's far. The two brothers walked through several villages, along the old street at the foot of the holy mountain and across the "Victory Bridge". After a while, they wound their way to the west, and an ancient building that came into view was Shengshan Temple. We walked up the steps along a zigzag road paved with bluestones called "Hundred Steps" (whether there are a hundred steps, I didn't count). Walking to the front of the temple, I saw two Kuomintang "officers and men" still wearing shorts guarding the temple gate. At that time, children were very afraid of "officers and men", and adults often used "officers and men" to scare children: stop crying and call "officers and men" again; In this way, the child will not cry. I was a child at that time, and my third brother was only four years older than me. We didn't even dare to look at them. So, I know nothing in the temple. I leaned against my third brother, burned the waste paper in the incinerator on the east side of the temple, hurried down the mountain and left the holy mountain temple. Although I left the holy mountain temple and the "officers and men", my heart still jumped.
