There are nine garden wood carvings on the wooden Fang under the bucket arch. These nine numbers are commonly known as "Nine Eight Immortals" among the people. They are the Eight Immortals and the Nine Odes. The Eight Immortals means "wisdom". Longevity is longevity. In ancient times, there was a saying that "wise men live long", and the nine "Eight Immortals" meant "wise men live long".

After the literati, the folks often say "one step to heaven". The list of Jinshi was designated by the emperor, and Jinshi was a "disciple of the son of heaven".
