To the west of Binchuan District, there is a narrow strip in the southwest of Jiangyi District, which is sandwiched between Kuishan Mountain and Huaichuan River, which is the only place to enter Weiyang from the west since ancient times, and it is also the place where soldiers in the past must fight.

In the twenty-fifth year of the reign of Zhou Xiansheng, in order to prevent the attack of the Chu State, the king of Yue Wuli specially built a pass in the narrow area of the south and north of the mountain, which was called Wuli Pass. Later, during the reign of Emperor Zhang of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is said that someone hunted in Kui Mountain, hunted a one-horned monster, and some scholars believed that this monster was the legendary mythical beast Qiangjiao, so Wuli Pass was renamed Qiangjiao Pass.

For a long time, the Guancheng of the Hedgehog Pass has long been abandoned, because it is located in the key area, it has formed a market and a village, and the name is called "Hedgehog Pass Town", just because the word "Hedgehog" is difficult to write and difficult to recognize, so it has been passed around and passed down as "Evil Pass Town".

In this world, there are many examples of changing common names from vassal elegance to good names, but there are really not many places where good names are changed to bad names.

For example, there used to be a "dung field alley" in Beijing, which was named after the nearby dung yard, and later it was estimated that the smell of this name was too big, so people took its homonym and changed it to "fenzhang alley".

There are many examples of such renaming of Beijing Hutongs, such as "Pig's Tail Hutong" changed to "Zhu Yibo Hutong", and "Rotten Face Hutong" changed to "Ranman Hutong". There is also a "cow blood alley", which has now been changed to a "study abroad road", at first glance I thought that the people living nearby were returnees who had drunk foreign ink, but in fact, this place was a cattle slaughterhouse earlier, and there were too many killings, and the blood flowed like a river, and it had nothing to do with foreign universities.

Another example is that there is a "Grinding Knife Creek" in Lichuan, Hubei Province, which is the throat of the Jingshu Channel, probably the word "Grinding Knife" is easy to remind people of the robbers who cut the path, and later Zhao Erfeng, the governor of Sichuan, waved his pen and changed the "Sharpening Knife" to "Moudao", and the villages near the river and Creek also participated in the grand event together, and became Moudao Town together.

So, in this way, the town of Evil Pass is really one of the few examples of changing a good place name to a bad name.

There is a Niangniang temple in Xieguan Town, the big name is called Yuanchen Palace, it is said that it originally imitated Changchun Palace, and enshrined Doumu Yuanjun and Sixty Jiazi Natal God. Later, the Japanese invaded China, and the Yuanchen Palace was also burned down.

Later, after the reform and opening up, people had money in their hands, and they had more and more spiritual needs and reliance, and the Niangniang Temple had become a ruin, so it was slowly built by some good doers.

It's just that the rebuilt Niangniang Temple has already changed its taste unconsciously.

The original name of "Yuanchen" refers to the Doumu Yuanjun, Doumu Yuanjun is a compassionate immortal, can eliminate disasters and misfortunes for people, break the darkness and eliminate evil, she is the mother of the stars, so it is called "Yuanchen".

The rebuilt Niangniang Temple has another set of sayings.

Legend has it that before everyone was reincarnated, there was a small house in the spirit world, and this house was the "Yuanchen Palace" of the individual.

In this small house, there are things related to your past life, and if you can enter this house, you can see where your life came from, and thus speculate on the blessings and fortunes of this person.

Of course, since you can enter the house, you will definitely be able to change the layout and structure of the house, so that a person can change his life and reshape his life.

However, this small house is a "forbidden place" in the spiritual world, and ordinary people or gods cannot enter it.

Therefore, the people who can enter and leave the Yuanchen Palace, whether in the human world or the divine realm, are the one of the spiritual envoys, and they are called "spiritual envoys".

The spirit envoy can take people into the Yuanchen Palace, observe the layout and furnishings in the room, and can also help people "redecorate" and change their appearance. Some people even say that the spirit envoy can make a person disappear completely by changing the Yuanchen Palace, and then become another person......

And the current owner of Niangniang Temple is a legendary spirit envoy, and everyone calls her "Xiao Envoy Jun".

This Xiao Yuanjun is a weirdo, and few people have seen her true face. It is said that she suddenly appeared in the atrium of the temple on a night when the gate of the Niangniang Temple was locked.

At that time, the temple was still very small, just a courtyard, there were no Taoist priests, and there were no monks, and the people who watched the temple were a cripple in Xieguan Town, and everyone called him Huang Cripple.

Huang Cripple later told people that Xiao Yuanjun was a god, and he looked at the empty courtyard a second ago, and when he looked up again, Xiao Yuanjun appeared in the temple.

What's even more strange is that Xiao Yuanjun was originally a thin and weak old lady, but the shadow in the moonlight wore a crown and a gown, just like the emperor in the play.

Claiming to be an orthodox descendant of Xiao Liang of the Southern Dynasty, she claimed that the reason why she was able to become a "spirit envoy" was due to a scroll handed down by her ancestors - "Linglu", and this book was handed down to her by her ancestor Xiao Yi himself.

Xiao Yuanjun also said that she is Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi is herself, and she was possessed by her knowledgeable ancestors. She also said that her ancestors hated the burning of books in Gangneung back then, so they wanted to reorganize some lost ancient scrolls through possession and continue to pass them on.

Because of the possession of his ancestors, Xiao Yuanjun had the ability to enter and exit the Yuanchen Palace.

It's a well-thought-out statement, and it's particularly realistic. Therefore, before describing the later case, let's introduce the ins and outs of Xiao Yuanjun's rhetoric for the time being.

Xiao Yuanjun's self-proclaimed Xiao Liang royal family refers to Xiao Liang during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. The history she mentioned was later crucial to the development of the case, so it is necessary to explain it to you.

The ruler of Xiao Liang was the Lanling Xiao clan, one of the four great scholar clans of the Southern Dynasty. This family successively established two dynasties, Xiao Qi and Xiao Liang, and produced 21 sons of heaven and 33 prime ministers.

The Xiao Liang Orthodox Dynasty ruled the south for fifty-five years, going through four emperors, and was later replaced by the Chen dynasty.

However, the Chen Dynasty did not completely destroy Xiao Liang, and the remaining Xiao clan remained in Jiangling, and established the "Western Liang" small dynasty with the support of the Western Wei Dynasty, which lasted thirty-three years and changed three emperors.

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, although the Xiao family was no longer the emperor, they were still prominent, and what queens and prime ministers were still emerging. During the reign of Tang Xizong, the Xiao family produced an upright person named Xiao Yu, who also worshipped the phase. At that time, the warlords were in turmoil, the emperor was relocated, the government was unconscious, and Xiao Yu was framed and killed by traitors.

Soon after Xiao Yu's death, his second son Xiao Zhen took the whole family south to take refuge, in order to avoid being chased and killed by traitors and warlords, he referred to Jiang as his surname when crossing the river, and changed his surname to Jiang. More than a thousand years later, this prosperous family of culture and education has produced another versatile old man who likes to sing poetry, and that is the good story that follows.

Let's go back to the era of Xiao Liang. As you know, the capital of the Southern Dynasties was in Jiankang, which is now Nanjing. But why Jiangling has become a place of dependence of the Xiao Liang royal family, this has to start with Emperor Xiao Yi of Liang Yuan.

Xiao Yi is a strange person, he became an emperor and a sinner, that is what Xiao Zhijun said about "Jiangling Book Burning".

Everyone may know that Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism, which was one of the catastrophes in the history of Chinese culture. However, the Jiangling book burning in the last years of Xiao Liang was comparable in consequences and impact to the first emperor's book burning.
