簡介
“九龍(long)泉涌,高山(shan)流(liu)水琴聲(sheng)妙;樓臺疊(die)翠, 明(ming)月清風笛(di)韻(yun)幽。”這(zhe)是(shi)前(qian)人贊(zan)九龍(long)池(chi)(chi)的(de)(de)一(yi)副對聯。位于玉溪市(shi)州城西北10公里奇(qi)黎山(shan)下的(de)(de)九龍(long)池(chi)(chi),又名奇(qi)黎溪, 是(shi)當地著名的(de)(de)佳景勝地之一(yi)。
歷史
據《重修(xiu)九龍池碑記》載,寺廟初(chu)創于清朝之前(qian), 幾經擴建,到雍正七年(公元1729年),又“新(xin)作石橋,長虹臥波,幾于騰(teng)空直(zhi)上。繼修(xiu)大寺閣(ge),燃(ran)然一新(xin),儼若(ruo)普(pu)陀”。可見, 200多年前(qian),九龍池廟宇(yu)已(yi)頗具規(gui)模。
九龍(long)池風光,最吸(xi)引(yin)人的地(di)方,首先是那潭十分清(qing)澈明凈的池水。乾隆《新興州志》描(miao)寫(xie)其水,從“巖石間(jian)潺潺流(liu)出,聚為一泓,清(qing)可鑒發”。不論(lun)春(chun)夏秋冬(dong),無(wu)數游魚(yu)(yu),搖尾(wei)相戲。晴日,池旁斑駁的樹影清(qing)晰(xi)如畫地(di)印在池中;微風吹來(lai),則(ze)漣漪輕(qing)蕩,樹影碎(sui)散,魚(yu)(yu)群晃動,別有(you)佳(jia)趣。
有(you)池(chi)子(zi)四周,設(she)有(you)欄桿。 池(chi)上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang),一(yi)(yi)橋(qiao)飛跨(kua)正中,橋(qiao)洞門頭上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang),刻有(you)“九(jiu)龍(long)(long)池(chi)”三字。龍(long)(long)潭的(de)出水(shui)(shui)量,比本地其他泉(quan)池(chi),都要(yao)大(da)得多,歷來是(shi)灌溉玉溪(xi)壩子(zi)“四十二屯”萬畝良田的(de)重要(yao)水(shui)(shui)源之一(yi)(yi)。故前人有(you)詩(shi)吟道:“山(shan)滿青(qing)光水(shui)(shui)滿池(chi),滔滔利澤本無(wu)私。未知百里臨民侯,可(ke)似九(jiu)龍(long)(long)作雨時(shi)。”九(jiu)龍(long)(long)池(chi)的(de)山(shan)巖峭壁聳峙, 層(ceng)巒(luan)疊嶂(zhang)。 沿著池(chi)畔臺階拾級而上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang),在(zai)險(xian)峻的(de)林壑之巔,建有(you)樓(lou)(lou)臺亭閣(ge)(ge)(ge),雕梁畫棟,金(jin)碧輝煌。大(da)觀(guan)樓(lou)(lou)、聽泉(quan)樓(lou)(lou)、三圣閣(ge)(ge)(ge)、大(da)士閣(ge)(ge)(ge)、文星閣(ge)(ge)(ge)等,均有(you)詩(shi)詞對聯可(ke)以觀(guan)賞。“欲(yu)窮千里目,更上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang)一(yi)(yi)層(ceng)樓(lou)(lou)”。文星閣(ge)(ge)(ge)位置最(zui)高,巍峨矗(chu)立,直插云(yun)霄。只要(yao)登樓(lou)(lou)遠眺,眾山(shan)皆(jie)小,翡翠(cui)般(ban)的(de)玉溪(xi)壩子(zi),可(ke)盡收眼底。遠處山(shan)川,連(lian)綿不(bu)絕,此起彼伏; 星羅棋(qi)布的(de)村舍,縷(lv)縷(lv)炊煙,裊裊升(sheng)起;縱橫交錯的(de)林蔭(yin)大(da)道,車水(shui)(shui)馬龍(long)(long),往返(fan)不(bu)息。視近處,龍(long)(long)池(chi)周圍,古木參天(tian),郁郁蔥(cong)(cong)蔥(cong)(cong),鳥語花(hua)香,林濤陣陣。池(chi)子(zi)東邊的(de)平場上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang),有(you)古戲臺一(yi)(yi)座,至今尚(shang)存(cun)。歷史上(shang)(shang)(shang)(shang),每(mei)年春節在(zai)此大(da)鬧花(hua)燈(deng)是(shi)個傳(chuan)統。四面(mian)八方(fang)來游玩的(de)人,真是(shi)人山(shan)人海。
除池(chi)(chi)、 亭(ting)、 山、水(shui)之外,九(jiu)(jiu)龍池(chi)(chi)還有上中下松園(yuan)(yuan),三園(yuan)(yuan)相(xiang)近(jin)(jin)。園(yuan)(yuan)內的云南(nan)巨松,拔地(di)(di)而起,蒼勁挺(ting)拔,高達十數丈,相(xiang)傳為明代(dai)寺(si)內老僧所值。坐(zuo)落(luo)在龍池(chi)(chi)下面(mian)的飛(fei)井海(水(shui)庫),水(shui)面(mian)寬闊(kuo),碧波如玉。西岸的農村(cun),坡坡桃林(lin),處處綠蔭。山道彎彎,阡陌相(xiang)連。當盛產飛(fei)井桃,其味甜(tian)美,遠近(jin)(jin)聞名。近(jin)(jin)年(nian)來,當地(di)(di)人民政(zheng)府撥款進(jin)行修復,建立了專門管理(li)林(lin)園(yuan)(yuan)機構,使(shi)古老的九(jiu)(jiu)龍池(chi)(chi)恢(hui)復了青春。
園內有(you)寺廟數(shu)座,規模有(you)大有(you)小。香火(huo)旺,菩薩(sa)很靈的。
傳說
傳(chuan)說有(you)一(yi)天張三(san)(san)豐(feng)(feng)(feng)游至九龍池,一(yi)口(kou)氣在(zai)小(xiao)攤(tan)上(shang)吃了(le)九碗涼粉,因(yin)為沒錢(qian)付就(jiu)把(ba)竹簍里的(de)(de)(de)鱔(shan)魚(張三(san)(san)豐(feng)(feng)(feng)捉的(de)(de)(de)孽龍)拿了(le)九條給攤(tan)主(zhu),讓攤(tan)主(zhu)用小(xiao)鐵鍋蓋(gai)住,不能(neng)見到光,等第(di)二天在(zai)鍋上(shang)敲個(ge)小(xiao)孔,孔里就(jiu)會冒水(shui)。誰知道,張三(san)(san)豐(feng)(feng)(feng)剛離(li)開小(xiao)攤(tan),攤(tan)主(zhu)一(yi)不小(xiao)心就(jiu)把(ba)放鱔(shan)魚的(de)(de)(de)盆給踢翻了(le),九條鱔(shan)魚遇光化龍,頓時間天上(shang)烏云密(mi)布。幸(xing)運張三(san)(san)豐(feng)(feng)(feng)還在(zai)化了(le)一(yi)座山鎮(zhen)壓(ya)(ya)住了(le)九條龍。九條龍被壓(ya)(ya)在(zai)山下吐(tu)水(shui),便(bian)匯成了(le)一(yi)個(ge)池子。壓(ya)(ya)住九條龍的(de)(de)(de)山叫做奇黎山。
