Is there really a Peng Zu?
Peng Zu, a legendary health care practitioner. According to ancient records, Peng Zu is the great-grandson of Zhuan Xu. According to legend, he lived more than 800 years than Tang Yu, Xia Shang and other generations. Peng Zu is good at keeping in good health. Zhuangzi had intended to regard him as a representative figure of health preserving family, and Tian Wen of Chu Ci also said that he was good at dietotherapy. However, it is obviously impossible for a person to enjoy life and live to be over 800 years old. According to Records of the Historian Chu Family, "Peng Zu's family tasted as a wave of Yin Hou, and Peng Zu's family died in the late Yin Dynasty." "Shi" was often used as the title of clan in ancient times. It can be seen that Peng Zu is actually a clan named after it, and history books also record that a clan named Peng was sealed in Dapeng and other places. Kong Guangsen, a A Qing scholar, said in Liezi Mo Lifeng that Peng Zuzhi was not above Yao and Shun, but lived for 800 years: "Peng Zu is also the father of Peng. Peng surname country: Da Peng, Qian Wei, Zhu Ji. Great summer crisis, businessmen, Wu Ding all over the world. Therefore, he said that Peng Zu was 800 years old and that Guo Peng died in 800 years. It is true that he did not die. " This situation is obvious. However, there is no objection to the legend that Peng Zu was good at keeping in good health. It can be inferred that, because Peng Zu is good at keeping in good health, and there are many people in the clan who live a long life, which is famous all over the world, the legend of Peng Zu's 800-year-old life has gradually emerged and spread to future generations. Therefore, Peng Zu, a clan, was a very representative and famous longevity family in ancient times.
