If we look at the history, we will find that there really was such a health expert between Song and Ming Dynasties, and he was Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wutangmen. Maybe many people know Zhang Sanfeng through TV series and movies. In film and television works, Zhang Sanfeng is an excellent master and a centenarian. He advocates Lao Tzu's inaction and has been practicing it.
In many film and television works, Zhang Sanfeng is over one hundred years old and still hale and hearty. According to historical records, Zhang Sanfeng was born in the late Southern Song Dynasty, and Zhang Sanfeng was originally named Zhang Junbao. Because I didn't pay attention to my clothes and shoes, I got a sloppy nickname. But this doesn't affect him as Zhang Zhenren at all. He is highly respected by people.
There are inevitably exaggerated elements in film and television works. Zhang Sanfeng can't be said to be a peerless master in martial arts, but he did live for a long time in his time. Some people say that Zhang Sanfeng lived over 400 years old, while others say that he was over 700 years old. The most exaggerated statement is that he is still alive.
Of course, after the research of historians, although there is no exaggeration of being over 400 years old, the minimum age has reached 200 years old. Why did Zhang Sanfeng live so long? This has something to do with his advocacy of cultivation. He can be said to be an ancient master of health preservation. He founded the Tai Ji Chuan in Wudang to keep fit and cultivate temperament.
Zhang Sanfeng, born at the end of the Song Dynasty, was summoned by the Jin, Yuan and even Ming emperors. After all, faced with such a long-lived real person, emperors naturally want to know the secret of longevity. The story of Zhang Sanfeng was widely circulated in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang, the great ancestor of Ming Dynasty, and Judy, Ming Taizu, both sent people to look for traces of Zhang Sanfeng, in order to ask Zhang Sanfeng for advice on the secret of immortality.
In film and television works and novels, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Sanfeng are related, saying that they are sworn brothers and fight side by side. Zhang Sanfeng helped Zhu Yuanzhang achieve great things many times. Of course, these are just novelists' imaginations, but in history, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted Zhang Sanfeng, and he also wanted to live forever.
As a true story recorded in history, Zhang Sanfeng is a representative of longevity and a master of health preservation. Although he is not a fairy, he is also beyond ordinary people and others. He lived 265,438+02 years.
