Since Golden Dizang became the first non-corrosive body, perhaps guided by the spirit of Jizang, 8 statues such as Wuxian, Longshan, Changen, Falong, Dinghui appeared one after another during the Ming, Qing and the Republic of China. Non-corrosive body; more than 20 years after the reform and opening up, there have been five non-corrosive bodies, namely Daxing, Ciming, Renyi (Bikkhuni), Mingjing and Puwen. There are 14 pieces in total. These 14 " bodhisattva " all have similar characteristics, that is, penance, foresight and longevity.

According to legend, Ming Dynasty no-time monks "don't eat fireworks", and use polygonatum to produce Buddhism and wild fruit for more than 20 years; Monk Ciming kept ringing the bell throughout his life. He said that every time the world strikes a bell, the souls of hell will suffer less pain; Monk Mingjing once stood and sat in Chantanlin for three years, and stayed in retreat for three years, regardless of the cold winter and summer. Su Dan Zhai, rescue the wounded... Their average age is 89 years old, the highest age is 126 years old, and the time can be predicted before passing away.

The magical "body bodhisattva" attracts groups of believers to come and pay their respects. However, although there are 14 "Bodhisattvas in the Flesh" of Jiuhua, there are only 5 available for admiration. Regarding the flesh bodhisattva in the Hundredsui Palace, there is such a magical story in Mount Jiuhua.

According to legend, in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, Baisui Palace caught fire many times, and the most serious one was that the fire collapsed the entire temple.At this time, the "hundred-year-old Bodhisattva" suddenly raised his hands, changing from a posture of meditation to a posture of covering the fire, and a heavy rain immediately fell from the sky. The fire was extinguished and the monastery was kept, but since then, the arm of the flesh bodhisattva has not been put down, and he has always maintained the posture of covering the fire.

On the top of Jiuhua Mountain at an altitude of more than 1,600 meters, there is a temple with a history of more than 600 years called the "Hundred Years Palace". The stone monument records the life of a 126-year-old monk in the Ming Dynasty: The flawless monk, also known as haiyu, was a monk at the age of 24. Because he admired the Ksitigarbha’s willingness to "the hell is not empty, and I vowed to become a Buddha", he vowed to revitalize the Ksitigarbha dojo. He lived in a small cave at night, and during the day he gathered monks on the top of the mountain to give lectures.

The innocent monk is a vegetarian all year round. Because there are few people in the mountains and there is nowhere to make alms, he only uses wild fruits, yellow essence and spring water to sustain his life. He made a vow: to copy a Buddhist scripture with his own blood. This is the "Dafang Guangfo Huayan Sutra" copied by the monks of Jiuhua Mountain as a treasure of the previous dynasties-the "Dafang Guangfo Huayan Sutra" written by the innocent monk piercing his tongue and blood and mixing it with gold powder. It has 81 volumes and a total of 420,000 words.

In order to copy this Buddhist scripture, he pricked his tongue every 20 days for 28 years. During the period several times due to excessive blood loss, physical exhaustion, fainting passed. People can’t help but sigh, what great perseverance, what a pious belief that supported this monk to accomplish such a feat!

Resume, finishing the eighty-one blood meridians, put it next to him. Then, he wrote a verse: "The old man has more than a hundred corpses,The phantom body is thin and fat body. The bank’s demon is a matter of fact, and Dongkou's words are exceptional. The stars in the sky are high and pluckable, and the people in the world are far apart. The guest came to ask me where I was going, and when La Jinchun returned, I saw the sea again. "After holding up the scriptures, he left. Three years later, the body sat down and did not rot, and entrusted the dream to the emperor Chongzhen of the dynasty. The Jiuhua Mountain is a hundred miles around and towering trees. Lord Wang has searched for many peaks and steep ridges, but he is not there. He is planning to return to the capital the next day. At night, he suddenly sees the top of the East Cliff and the Shenguang Ridge. They reflected each other. Lord Wang thought to himself, how did this old forest in the deep mountains let out the light? I felt strange, and decided to find out the next day. The next day, he led the troops to search, and this was in the stone cave at Dongya Peak. Here, I found Haiyu. I saw him sitting in the cave, thinking that he was chanting and meditating. He couldn’t help but he didn’t breathe when he heard it closely. When he looked at his side, there was a biography and eighty-one volumes of "Dafang Guangfo". "Huayan Sutra" blood meridian, only then did I know that the old monk sitting in front of his face is a native of Wanruping County, Beijing, who has been sitting for three years. Seeing that there is the Shenguang Ridge covered by the Jin Dizang flesh body. Wang Shangshu seems to have realized that this is the second appearance of the Jiuhua of the Dizang Bodhisattva, so he was extremely happy, and immediately sent his horse back to the capital to report to the Emperor Chongzhen, after the Emperor Chongzhen heard it. Great rejoicing. In the third year of Chongzhen (1630), the impeccable monk was awarded as ", the Bodhisattva", and he gave "the most joyful for kindness". In the same year, the impeccable apprentice Hui Guang presided over the completion of the hall. The Xingan Temple is the Wannian Temple.

According to "The Deeds of the Bodhisattva in the Hundred Years Palace of the Great Jiuhua Mountain in China", Emperor Kangxi sent someone to build the stone road on the mountain and gave a Tripitaka to enshrine it. Hundredsui Palace. One night in August 1966, several masters hid the body of the Buddha Bodhisattva in a pit outside the temple.The bottom of the pit was padded with bricks, two treasure seals were placed on the legs of the bodhisattva of the flesh, two iron rods were placed on the top of the pit, stone slabs were laid, and soil was applied. The two plaques, the blood scriptures copied by the Bodhisattva Yingshen, and the autobiography are all hidden in the tile ditch on the ceiling.

This took 11 years. In October 1977, the body of the body Bodhisattva was invited out of the soil. The bricks and iron rods were rusted to pieces, and the body Bodhisattva was intact. The body of the Bodhisattva has been 375 years old. The Jiuhuashan Management Office was rebuilt in 1982, and the Buddha statue was reshaped in 1983. The body of the flawless monk was repainted and was gilded . "
