Guanyin delivers dream
Around the year of 1720, a farmer called Wei Yin of Songyan village in Anxi Yaoyang, was very diligent in planting tea. What's more, he was a devout Buddhist. Every morning and night, he would put a cup of tea before the statue of guanyin (a buddism godness) to worship. One night, he dreamed that he found a tea tree which was opulent and fragrant in the crevice between stones. The next day, he followed the road and direction in the dream and he really found the tea tree with oval lush green leaves and tender purple buds. Wei Yin dag out the tea tree and planted it in his house. He named it "Tie Kwan-yin".
