Jiulongsong is located in Wudaoying Township, northwest of Fengning County 15km. According to experts' research, this tree was planted in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty and has a history of more than 980 years since the Six Dynasties. Kowloon pine is 9. 1m high, 2.8m in circumference and 13m in trunk. From the outside, it has nine thick branches, which are intertwined. Nine branches are like dragons, the trees are curved like dragons, the bark is like a dragon forest, and nine branches are like dragons, so the locals call it Kowloon Pine. So, why does it have the reputation of being the first strange pine in the world? Because of its strangeness, it can also be called unique and unparalleled in the world.

Seen from a distance, this tree is like a big bonsai, and its appearance varies greatly from different angles. For example, from north to south, the outline and growth of this tree are completely consistent with the outline trend of Fuma Mountain in front. What's even more peculiar is that this tree has a distinct hierarchy and is divided into four layers, and its corresponding Fuma Mountain is also divided into four layers. The mountains and trees in the distance echo each other.

Second odd number

This branch grows strangely. Thousands of years later, the tree did not grow tall, but stretched everywhere, and all the branches were hovering, bending and turning. Its growth has the following four characteristics:

First of all, the tree is not tall and covers a large area. Its tree is more than 9 meters high, its trunk is 3.5 meters high, and it is surrounded by three people, covering an area of 525 square meters and covering an area of 8 points. Secondly, the trunk is winding and has the image of a dragon. And some branches seem to have the consciousness of artificial carving. Also, the growth of the trunk is on and off, on and off.

Third odd number

Thousands of years later, this pine tree still grows outward every year and bears pine cones every year. Pine nuts are white and full when they are immature, and there is only one layer of skin inside when they are mature. After years of experiments, the Forestry Department of Hebei Province, even with the most advanced technology and means, can't produce the second generation pine and cypress, which is the best in the world.

Fourth odd number

Experts have determined that there is a strong mixed energy field around the tree. If you close your eyes, what can you feel? Your ears are close to the trunk, and you can hear abnormal echoes. Moreover, this pine tree has become a forest, and a breeze can make it loose.

Doubt and doubt

In addition, it is worth mentioning that this tree has no crown, but it can still grow for nearly 1000 years. So far, it is impossible to find an accurate explanation.

With these four wonders, Kowloon Pine is well-deserved as the first strange pine in the world, even if it is the pine of Huangshan Mountain and the cypress of Confucius. Therefore, in the first chapter of China Forestry Chronicle in Hebei Province, this magical Kowloon Pine has been called "the king of northern forests in China".

How did this tree come from? Folklore comes from Baiyun Canyon (Baiyun Ancient Cave), 45km south of Fengning. A crane stopped here, with a pine nut in its mouth, and grew up blown by the wind, so there is a couplet to describe it like this:

The first part is: the crane holds the seed of god and takes root to see all the clouds and rains in the Six Dynasties.

The bottom line is: fairy grass and strange trees cover the sky and bring happiness to a generation.

There is a poem praising Kowloon Pine: "Cui Yun is ten feet and one column, and old cadres are soaring in Kowloon. The rare pine trees in the Millennium surprise tourists, and it is best to wait until the snow begins to stop. " Because in the middle of winter, after a heavy snow, the vigorous Jiulongsong slope is covered with snow, and nine branches are flying like nine jade dragons, which is even more magical.

The discoverer of Jiulong pine is said to be Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. According to legend, when Kangxi toured the Great Wall and hunted Mulan paddock, he heard that there was a strange pine by the water in Baoqiu, outside Gubeikou, and went there gladly. Later, when I saw the strange growth of this tree, I was surprised. I wrote the word "Kowloon Pine" and asked local craftsmen to carve a plaque and hang it on the temple, leaving 500 guards to protect this pine tree. After generations of reproduction and intermarriage with the local people, the 500 imperial guards gradually settled down, and so far five villages adjacent to Kowloon Pine have been formed. The following three villages are Toudaoying, Erdaoying and Sandaoying respectively, while the above two villages are Sidaoying and Wudaoying respectively. I don't know since when, there is such a mantra circulating among local people: "When you arrive in Fengning City, you must go to Sidaoying; Look at Kowloon Pine, everything goes well; The scenery is so beautiful that I don't regret it; I don't know if I didn't see it, but it was amazing at first sight; Take pictures under the tree, and the cranes are scattered; Walking under a tree can live ninety-nine; Touch the dragon pine, the younger you live.
