[The finishing touch] Liukeng, Le'an County, Jiangxi Province, is a thousand-year-old village known as "the last orphan of the Chinese culture of farming and reading". In the village, row upon row of ancient buildings exudes a quaint and tranquil temperament. Walking in the streets and alleys, I don't know what year it is today.
Liukeng Village, known as "the first village of the ages", is located on the bank of the Wujiang River in the southeast of Niutian Town, Le'an County, Jiangxi Province.
Liukeng Village has an ancient and proud history and a highly developed civilization. The village was built during the Shengyuan period of the Southern Tang Dynasty of the Five Dynasties (937-943), and it belonged to Yongfeng County of Jizhou, and was annexed to Le'an County of Fuzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty. It has a history of more than 1,000 years. This village is mostly surnamed Dong, and it is a blood village where Dong's single surname lives together. The Dong family respected Dong Zhongshu, a great scholar in the Western Han Dynasty, as the first ancestor, and recognized the Tang Dynasty prime minister Dong Jin as their ancestor. According to genealogy records, Dong Qingran, the grandson of Dong Jin, moved from Anhui to Yihuang County in Fuzhou, Jiangxi during the war in the late Tang Dynasty, and his great-grandson Dong He moved to Liukeng to settle down and became the founder of Liukeng. The Song Dynasty was one of the most glorious periods in the history of Liukeng. At that time, it was known as "one school and five scholars, two dynasties, four ministers, two champions in civil and military, and scholars are like stars" and "Ou (Ouyang Xiu) Dong (Liukeng Dong) famous hometown". In the Yuan Dynasty, the village was destroyed by the soldiers. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, a man of insight in the village, Shao followed his ancestral business, started teaching and running schools, built temples, and developed bamboo and wood trade, making Liukeng Village prosperous again. From the beginning of the Song Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were 26 schools and schools in the village during the Ming and Wanli eras, and 28 during the Qing Dynasty. There were 1 scholar in the village, 1 champion in martial arts, 34 scholars, 78 people, and more than 100 people who entered the official career, ranging from political affairs, ministers, master books, and teachings. There are only 4 villages with more than 30 Jinshi in Jiangxi Province. Liukeng Village is the only ancient village with such well-preserved cultural relics, which is really rare.

Most of the ancient village dwellings in Liukeng can be tested by their age, among them, there are almost no defects or damages from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty to the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Passing by them is like reading a wire-bound book of the years. The content of the book is like a wonderful time-travel novel. Every visitor is like a character in the book - either a down-to-earth scholar, or a high school scholar, Or a wealthy businessman, or a farmer and a woodcutter... All kinds of people have read the history of the ancient village "five hundred years of farming and reading, five hundred years of farming and merchants".
In the village, there are many inscriptions and plaques of famous people of all dynasties, which are scattered on plaques, inscriptions and couplets. In history, Liukeng Dong's literary style was prosperous, and his officialdom was like clouds. The villagers do not understand the preservation and appreciation of value, but they like to collect them, just to preserve the glory of their ancestors. The collections that should have been placed in the glass case of the museum were hung on the wall and placed on the table at will. When you touch the dust on the collection, you will be surprised to find that the signature is actually the name of a famous person through the ages, which makes people suspect that it is a fake. The thirst for fame, the publicity of the way of farming and reading, and the dedication to the inheritance of poetry and books make the air of Liukeng seem to be haunted by the "yeast" that gave birth to generations of literati and celebrities. Therefore, no matter how the buildings in the village are carved, they look calm and introverted, with a delicate but not complicated, agile but not flamboyant, spectacular but not luxurious charm.
The self-sufficient farming life of Liukeng villagers seems to have never changed: there are still dingy blacksmith shops and cobbler shops with strong smell in the village. The old people like to use ancient coins as cards. Of course, cattle and sheep are also available. There is an alley in the village, which is usually indistinguishable from other alleys, but when it comes to the market day, this alley becomes the "commercial street" in the village. Eggs, grains, utensils, and cloth are all placed in the alley. For trading, all the materials are produced and manufactured by the villagers themselves - Liukeng is almost a self-sufficient small world.
When the sun is fine, it is common for some people to squat under the eaves and bask in the sun while chatting. The old people will choose a place without dark corners, put a rattan chair, and sit for most of the day. The sun changed the angle of exposure, and they moved the chairs, leaving traces of the years little by little.

Dragon Lake
Longhu Lake is located on the west side of Liukeng Village. It is composed of seven ponds that are closely connected from south to north and stretch like a dragon, hence the name Longhu. There are six cobblestone roads across the ancient lake, each of which is connected by a stone arch bridge. There is a dragon stream in the southwest of Longhu Lake. The villagers introduce the stream water into the lake. The lake keeps the water flowing for many years, the fish swim in the water, and the lotus flowers bloom on the water.

According to the family tree of Liukeng Dong in the tenth year of Wanli (1582), Longhu Lake was redesigned and planned by the twenty-second Sun Dong Sui of Liukeng Dong family on the basis of the old Wuhu (Five Ponds). Dong Sui was the only high-ranking official from Liukeng Village in the late Ming Dynasty. He successively served as magistrate of Zhijiang County in Hubei Province, Tongzhi of Jianyang Prefecture in Fujian Province, and Minister of Punishment in Nanjing. He was clean and honest in politics and did not hold power. He had the reputation of being a capable official and was well appreciated by the people of the time. At the age of sixty-one, he was excluded by others and returned to his hometown. Dong Sui was both a capable official and a famous scholar of Neo-Confucianism. In the more than 20 years after he returned to his hometown, he joined Dong Ji (Gunan), who was the magistrate of Dazu County, Sichuan Province, and Dong Yu, who was the magistrate of Dongguan County and the provincial censor of Shandong Province. The rectification and improvement of family organizations and community undertakings have vigorously done three major things. These three events have had a profound impact on the history of Liukeng Village. First, in the 41st year of Jiajing (1562), the ancestral hall was rebuilt on the original site of the ancestral hall burned down by the rogues in Fujian and Guangxi. The second is to actively organize the compilation and publication of new genealogies. The third is to re-plan and construct the main part of Liukeng Village, including the renovation of Longhu Lake, and to protect Longhu Lake: "Never disturb the soil lightly", "Never block by force", "Perpetrators are not allowed to block" Clan rules such as "combining ethnic groups and attacking them" require the clan people to strictly abide by them.

Dong's Ancestral Hall Ruins
"Dong's Ancestral Hall" was built for Dong He, the founding ancestor of the Liukeng Dong family. In the twenty-fifth year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1155), Dong He, the eighth-generation grandson, the champion Dong Deyuan, was appointed to the political affairs office, and he made a special decree to posthumously as a great Situ on behalf of the emperor. The full name of the temple is "Song Dynasty. Donate to the Great Ancestral Hall of the Great Situ Donggong".
The Great Ancestral Hall was built in the second year of Hongwu in the early Ming Dynasty (1369) and is located in the Xinglin Ruins (the exact location is missing). In the third year of Jiajing (1524), the Dong family agreed that the land should be rebuilt on the open and quiet Molan Island in the north of the village. After completion, it was stipulated that the eldest grandson of Dong He would be the eldest son and preside over his sacrifices. In the eleventh year of Jiajing's reign, Ouyang De from Jiangxi Taihe, who was at the time of Nanjing's State Child Supervisory Division, wrote "The Record of the Son of the Lizong of the Dong Family". In the 40th year of Jiajing, the ancestral hall was burned down by the peasant army of Zhonglingxiu in Fujian and Guangxi. In the 42nd year of Jiajing, the 61-year-old Nanjing Xingbu Langzhong Dong Sui soon resigned from office and returned to his hometown. Together with Dong Ji and other officials, he advocated the gathering of clansmen and rebuilt the great ancestral hall on the original site, which was even larger and covered an area of 7,000 square meters. . Its composition is clearly drawn in the "Genealogy of Dong Clan in Liukeng" in the tenth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1582).
The Great Ancestral Hall was built by the Dong family in Liukeng. From the site and composition, it can be seen that the scene is broad, the structure is grand, and it is elegant and spectacular. The genealogy describes the great ancestral hall as follows: "Biaofang and Tandao, heavy gates and wings, secluded rooms and lofty halls, stacked storehouses, Suzhaijinglu, around the walls and rope lanes, all of which are incomparable." It can be said that Liukeng ancient The most built is enough to reflect the glory of the Dong family in the past. The ancestral hall, which stood for more than 360 years, was unfortunately destroyed in the 16th year of the Republic of China (1927), when it was burned down by Xing Yutang soldiers, the remnants of Sun Chuanfang, a Beiyang warlord. Its main building is now only a fragment of ruins. Five granite pillars with a diameter of 0.7 meters and a height of 8 meters are left on the "Dun Mutang". The giant red stone lion still stands on the ruins, and the prime minister looks at it. The majesty still exists. On the east and west sides of the courtyard, the "Liu Mingxian" square and the "Sance Liuxin" square remain, still showing their former demeanor to people today.
Standing on the ruins of the Great Ancestral Hall gives people a desolate, ancient and deep feeling. The mottled walls, standing stone pillars, and majestic stone lions induce people to admire the prosperity of the Liukeng Dong family and the grand ancestral hall in the past. It is a pity that later generations called the ruins of the Great Ancestral Hall the "Yuanmingyuan" of Liukeng.
