I had a great opportunity to visit Zhuxi Temple 竹溪寺 in Fuqing 福清 on Nov. 24, 2019. Legend says that the great Song Neo-Confucian scholar Lin Xiyi 林希逸 used to study here. One of Lin Xiyi's descendants in the Ming dynasty became a monk and acquired the dharma name of Jifei Ruyi 即非如一under Yinyuan Longqi 隱元隆琦. He died in Japan.
