The Origin of Jiugong Temple in Dadukou

China has always had the saying of "Nine Palaces and Eight Gossips". In fact, Jiugong Temple was not originally called Jiugong Temple, but Jiugui Temple. The origin of Jiugui Temple: According to legend, there are nine stones embedded in a local cliff, which looks like a turtle that only needs to walk, hence the name Hanggui Mountain. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the turtle in Wudian Town was repaired, so there was a drunkard temple. Because the word "turtle" contains derogatory meaning after all, it is really indecent as a place name, so Jiugui Temple was renamed Jiugong Temple in the late Qing Dynasty.
