Feilai Feng

Now what we see this hill is called Feilai Feng,  means a hill fly from other place. According to legend, about 1600 years ago, an Indian monk called Huili came to Hangzhou, and saw this landscapes. Said by surprise:” This is our Indian Tianzhu Lingjiu mountains’ small hill,when did it fly to here? “ Then the hill called Feilai Feng.

Another legend saying: Once under this hill there is a small village. One day a famous monk call Jigong from Tiantai knew that there is a hill will fly to cover this village. People will die in dangerous. Jigong being a monk in Lingying temple,he lived there didn’t obey the discipline of the temple,and like to eat meat dog very much. He has a famous sentence: wine and meat through my belly,Buddha sit in my heart. He like the prophet knew the dangerous in future. He became to think,if he told the people that he knew there is dangerous in this village,no people will believe him. They will not move away from this village. So he need to think out a good method. Then he saw a team of dress up people playing some music and seems the bridegroom was picking up bride to their home. An idea came out to his head. He ran to the people and brought away bride,all the people running after him,some people is shouting,then people who living in the village also came out to catch Jigong. They said monk robbed the bride,it’s crazy,people ran and wanna get the bride back.

Then,all the people came out from the village running after Jigong, Jigong carry the bride and giggle. Then people from this village moved to safe place. Suddenly behind the crowd,a bout of dark clouds coming in sky,”boom”, a hill pressure on the village. From then the hill called Kllip. People afraid the hill will fly away another day to make dangerous to other village,they carved hundred of Buddha on it,means to quell the hill. From that time,the hill never fly away anymore.
