Is the locust tree in Hongdong related to the blessing of ancestors?

"Fu" culture has a profound historical background in Huaishu Scenic Area. As early as the Ming Dynasty, during the immigration period, immigrants broke the branches of Sophora japonica and collected the seeds of Sophora japonica to comfort their homesickness and protect the long road away from the township. After arriving at the immigrant land, the immigrants planted the seeds of Sophora japonica, and the new Sophora japonica bears the blessings of their hometown, wishing the descendants of immigrants peace, prosperity and touching from generation to generation. During the Revolution of 1911, Yuan Shikai rebelled and ordered Lu Yongxiang, the company commander of the three towns, to attack the Shaanxi Revolutionary Army. Lu Jun went south and drove straight into Pingyang (now Linfen). Wherever he went, he plundered and did everything he could, except to dismount and worship under the big locust tree in Hong Tong. Soldiers spread rumors to each other and returned to their hometown, because most of them were recruited from the Central Plains, descendants of immigrants under the big locust tree. When they arrived in Hongdong, they didn't rob, but sacrificed the money they robbed elsewhere under the big locust tree. With this big pagoda tree, the people of Hong Tong have avoided a disaster. As a result, the locust tree in Hongtong has not only become the ancestor tree of the descendants of immigrants, but also become the "blessed land" of auspicious tree. In the national intangible cultural heritage with a long history-the custom of worshipping ancestors in the Sophora japonica, the word "fu" represents the memory of ancestors and the yearning for a better life of immigrant descendants, attracting more than 600,000 tourists to visit the scenic spot of Sophora japonica every year.
