Plains region, the name of the country was called “China” and the
place around it was called “the Quartet.” The ancients referred to the
majority with the “nine”. According to historical records, when Daxie
ruled water, he divided “China” into “Kyushu” to show the vastness of
the Central Plains. Sima Qian said in “Historical Records” that

Kyushu, and the prefecture of Kyushu is also.” Later, people used
“Kyushu” to refer to China. The poet of the Qing Dynasty, Gong
Zizhen, “Hei Hai Miscellaneous Poems” “Kyushu is angry with the
wind and thunder, Wan Maqi can be sorrowful.” Folk songs “Moon
children bend and bend according to Kyushu, several happy families,”

Buddha statue “Qingzhou style”
The true formation and development of “Qingzhou style” Buddhist art
should be in the Northern Dynasty. The large number of Buddhist

23. statues discovered were of this period, especially during the period
from Nanqi to the end of the Northern Qi Dynasty. A large number of
stone-carved Buddhist statues of this period were discovered on the
sites of Longxing Temple (the top ten archaeological finds in the
country in 2006), Guangfu Temple and Xingguo Temple in Qingzhou.
These images are divided into high relief statues with rounded backs
and round sculptures.
The statue with a lotus-shaped back screen, as the name suggests, is
like a lotus-backed back screen, which appears in a shop. In the
middle of the three statues, the main lord is mostly a Buddha statue,
and there is a threatening Buddha on both sides. On the lower part of
the back screen, the two sides of the main statue are decorated with
dancing dragons, mouth lotus, lotus leaves, lotus buds, holding up
two threatening Buddha. The upper part of the upper part of the back
screen is mostly a single-layer side tower. The cover on the tower is
very prominent, covering the upper brake lever and the ring phase
wheel. In some of the statues of the late Northern Wei Dynasty, the
gods of the sun and the moon appeared. If these elements that make
up the back screen are taken apart, they can be found in grottoes or
individual statues in other parts of China. For example, the single-
layer raft tower has appeared in the grottoes of Xinjiang, Shanxi,
Hebei and other places; the shape of the dragon-shaped lotus has also
appeared in the statues unearthed in Henan. But the combination of
these elements in a fixed form is only the Qingzhou statue.
The “Qingzhou style” embodied in the back-screen image is popular in
the late Northern Wei Dynasty to the Eastern Wei Dynasty. In the late
Northern Qi Dynasty, the image of this style gradually faded out of
people’s sight.
“Since the late Eastern Wei Dynasty, a Buddhist statue that is
different from the clothing of the Yiwubo belt has gradually emerged,
and Gaoqi has developed very fast.” China’s famous archaeologist and
pioneer of Buddhist archaeology, Su Bai, once worked at Qingzhou
Longxing. The thin and transparent Buddha image referred to in the
article “The Qingzhou City and the Longxing Temple” is another
aspect of the Qingzhou style. This style of Buddha statue, the meat is
slightly convex, the eyes are low, the body is slender, the body is

24. wide, the shoulders are wide and flat, the chest is slightly raised, the
abdomen is slightly protruding, the waist is thin, the dress is light
and thin, close to the body, it is “Cao Yi water” Very good
reproduction. The same is true of the Buddha statue in the posture.
The “Qingzhou style” of this performance is mainly popular in the
Northern Qi period.
