通樑古榕 香花樹數百年歷史 神話流傳

  (記者宋國正報導)白沙旅遊勝地通樑村,廟前古榕已屆三百多年而七美人塜上已屆四百多年歷史的香花樹,不僅被人化,當作人一般尊敬,甚至被神話,當成神明一般膜拜,不僅如此,還流傳著各種不同的傳說。

  本縣目前被列入保護的百年珍貴老樹不少,多數均有著讓當地人津津樂道的神話故事,代代流傳著,其中以「通梁古榕」及七美塚「香花樹」更具神奇色彩,且受人膜拜。

  白沙鄉通村保安宮前大榕樹,考其由來,有兩種說法,有謂係三百多年前,由貿易商船載來之盆植而移栽長成者,或謂漂來自海上,為村民鄭興所拾而由林瑤琴所栽種。依澎湖誌載:此樹原在神廟前東偏,初僅一株,既而氣根下垂及地,逐形成兩株,以枝根互生漸繁,枝椏岐出,經過悠久歲月,乃蔚成今日,日據時期日人將其列入日本十大奇木之一。目前兩列垂根九十一,蔭蔽地面大半畝,其上枝葉茂密,薈麗平舖,望之儼若華蓋。由於古榕位於通村民宗教中心保安宮前,一到觀光盛季,不僅吸引來自各地送客觀賞外,亦被當成神明般焚香膜拜。

  七美人塚位於七美鄉南港村,建於明代洪武二十年,洪武年間,倭寇(日本浪人)橫行海上,襲擊大嶼,燒殺掠奪,凌辱婦女,島上有七女子因不願受辱,投井而死,以全貞節,居民乃掩井葬,後於井上生長常青樹七株日本人稱(一葉秋)學名(葉底珠)至今四百多年,依然葉翠枝嫩,春夏之交盛開白花,清香四溢,當地人稱為「香花樹」。

  後人感念七女之貞烈,立「七美人塚」石碑,並建圍牆,以為紀念。民國三十九年,何志浩將軍前往憑弔,吟歌以頌貞烈,歌日:七美人兮白璧姿,抱負拒賊兮死隨之;英魂永寄孤芳樹碑,「七美人歌」。七美原名大嶼,民國三十八年,為永傳七女子之貞烈事蹟於後世,大嶼乃易名為七美。

  坊間對百年老樹有著高度的崇敬心理,澎湖縣政府近年來對百年老樹則採取保護措施,並有各種作為,讓民眾對百年老樹有更多的認識。
