Yakushi Nyorai 薬師如来 and legends from Shiga 滋賀県

In Shigaraki town there is a 不動寺 Fudo Temple. Once a man went missing there and people got out with drums and bells to look for him. They found him dead leaning on a tree on the Ise Road near the Ishi Yakushi stone 石薬師伊勢道.
This was the wrongdoing of a 天狗 Tengu for sure.

Yakushi Nyorai 薬師如来 and legends from Shizuoka 静岡県
.......................................................................
富士吉田市 Fujiyoshida

Yakushi no tatari 薬師のたたり the curse of Yakushi
Once upon a time, a member of the 加賀美イツケ Kagami clan had an eye disease. In a dream he was told that he should go to lake 明見湖 Asumiko (in nearby Yamanashi) and look for a statue of Yakushi Nyoarai to venerate. He did so and his eyes were healed.
But later through a curse of the Yakushi he was forced to bring it to the temple 常在寺 Jozai-Ji in 小立村 Kodachi-mura.

庵原郡 Ibara district 両河内村 Ryogochi-mura

Once Tokugawa Ieyasu came to 大平の薬師様 Yakushi Sama in Ohira village and prayed, and soon his eyes were healed.
This Yakushi once wanted to be venerated by many more people and came all the way to 吉原 Yoshiwara Town in Eastern Shizuoka. But there he could not move on any more.
So it seems Yakushi did not want to go to Ohira after all.
Ohira is a small village near Numazu - 静岡県沼津市大平.
