Li Chengyu was born at the foot of Wudang Mountain in Guangxu 10 (1885). Her specific birthday is March 3, the same day as the ancestor Zhenwu, the main god enshrined in Wudang Mountain. This is a wonderful coincidence, which unconsciously influenced the fate of Li Chengyu's life. Of course, when she was born, she knew nothing, nothing.
Li Chengyu's family has been doing business for generations. It was a big family in her grandfather's generation, but by the time her father took over, it was on the verge of bankruptcy because of poor management. So that when Li Chengyu was 6 years old, she was forced to be betrothed by her father to a local squire's house as a concubine child bride, and the squire's house also had a big house.
The status of a child bride is extremely low, let alone a second wife. After Li Chengyu went to Taigong's home, his life was very hard and he was bullied. However, Li Chengyu is optimistic by nature, and occasionally he can go to the Taoist temple to play with incense. After knowing her birthday, the Taoist priest in the Taoist temple repeatedly marveled: "You little wretched, your birthday is the same as that of Zhenwu's father!"! It seems that I have something to do with my ancestors. "
Therefore, Li Chengyu decided that she had a wonderful fate with Taoism. At this point, she has a heart for Taoism. But as a child bride, she doesn't have much personal freedom and can only go back to her in-laws to live. When Li Chengyu 17 years old, she was slim and graceful, officially married her husband, and her life was still harmonious.
However, not long after marriage, Li Chengyu suffered from "consumption", which is called tuberculosis in modern medicine. Even if she wants to be completely cured today, she needs to go through a series of complicated processes. In ancient times, it was almost terminal. After a period of treatment, Li Chengyu's condition still didn't improve, so she had to wait for death, and her husband's family basically gave up on her.
At this time, Li Chengyu remembered that when she was a child, the Taoist told her that she was "predestined friends with her ancestors", so she went to Wudang Mountain to ask for the blessing of Zhenwu's ancestors, and was seen by Wudang Mountain Taoist Zhang. Zhang is proficient in medical skills. After careful treatment, Li Chengyu miraculously improved. At this time, she was disheartened by her husband's family and insisted on becoming a monk in Wudang Mountain.
At this time, Li Chengyu no longer had too many worldly thoughts, but just read Taoist scriptures on the mountain all day and lived a dull life. I don't know the years in the mountains, but it's been a hundred years. Li Chengyu Jian Jian Kang lived to 1 18 years old and passed away safely in 2003. Before he died, he only said three words "I will go" lightly.
Nathan Scott Lee's longevity has attracted a lot of people's attention. A reporter went to ask her disciples to find out what Nathan Scott Lee's usual secret of keeping in good health is. Li Chengyu's disciples found a mahogany comb while sorting out relics, remembering that she combed her hair carefully every day, and told everyone that this might be the secret of Li Chengyu's longevity.
