南京先生

北竿島塘岐村玉封【蕭王府】廟二樓右側神龕供奉的一尊神,信徒都尊稱『南京先生』。在西元1919年間,當時【蕭王府】尚未建廟,來自福建惠安的周府有一女眷身染重病,家人用盡各式藥理偏方都未見效;於是家人《起乩》問神請示『蕭王爺』,『蕭王爺』示喻:「女眷之病,須遠至南京,請一位名醫,若此名醫願意來,此女方得有救」。於是『蕭王爺』親自遠赴南京,化做一位書生模樣,到先生開立的醫館拜會,不巧遇到先生出外看診未歸,只留夫人在醫館內看顧。於是『蕭王爺』便向夫人說明來意,自懷中取出一錠元寶及一只信籤,交與夫人並交代說:「待先生歸來,有勞夫人將此物交與先生,先生看後便知曉」。數日後,先生自外診返家,夫人便將此事,告知與先生,說:「元寶與信籤都放在案上抽屜裡」。先生打開抽屜,見一信籤而元寶已成一疊銀紙。先生暗知來醫館者非庶人也。於是將醫館事務一一囑咐給夫人,自己便沐浴更衣,換上一身素衣,赴『蕭王爺』之邀約。隨即指示上山採藥與調配方法,數日後周府女眷病癒,事傳地方鄉里,民眾們莫不嘖嘖稱奇。自此凡是有人生病,都來祈求先生醫治,都很靈驗。眾信徒感念不已,希望雕塑金身奉祀,請『先生』示與名諱,『先生』推脫不肯告知,於是信徒們感念『先生』恩澤,便以『南京先生』尊稱至今。現今,在廟內還留有一塊寫滿中醫藥材的布帖,以往當信徒們問診看病時,『南京先生』開立藥方除了以鑾轎寫出藥材名稱外,偶而也會用此布帖,點出藥名使用。
