By Tai Lake stands the Temple of Broken Tiles, not a large one; within sit more than twenty stone men, their heads all chopped off and lying on the ground, some still clutched in their hands.
Tradition says: when Zhang Shicheng was besieged, by night a stone general led his troops and fought with great valour. After the city fell, the heads of the stone men in the temple all dropped to the ground.
Another account says: in the late Ming, the stone men haunted the villagers by night, and so the villagers struck off their heads with iron hoes.
