Is there really such a god in Wudang Mountain?
When it comes to Wudang Mountain, the first thing that comes to mind is Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wutangmen, whose story is included in many martial arts works.
Although the real Zhang Sanfeng is not as "divine" as in the martial arts novels, there are still many unsolved mysteries about Zhang Sanfeng in history. The first one is his longevity.
It is rumored that Zhang Sanfeng has a long life.
According to historical records, Zhang Sanfeng was born in the Song Dynasty 1247, experienced the Yuan Dynasty, and also appeared when Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang was founded in the Ming Dynasty 1368, when he was 12 1 year old. Terrible is that Zhang Sanfeng also appeared during the reign of Chu Emperor.
Zhang Sanfeng's longevity is well documented in history, so it also casts a mysterious veil on Wudang Mountain.
If what happened in Zhang Sanfeng was a long time ago, the credibility is not high enough. Today, I will give you a modern real case:
A Taoist who practiced in Wudang Mountain lived to be 1 18 years old, but in his later years, there were signs of "rejuvenation", such as black hair and new teeth. The most amazing thing is that she can predict her own time of death, and before eclosion, she said three words, which are very intriguing.
The Taoist priest's name is Li Chengyu.
Although modern, she was born in Guangxu period (1885) and lived at the foot of Wudang Mountain since childhood.
Her childhood was very unfortunate. At the age of six, she was sent to a country gentleman's house as a child bride and bullied by her wife. I finally grew up to 17 years old. I was slim and suddenly got severe tuberculosis.
At that time, the disease was called "consumption". If it could not be cured, the family left her in Wudang Mountain and left her to fend for herself. Fortunately, Li Chengyu was taken in by Zhang, a kind Wudang Taoist, and was finally cured. Li Chengyu believed that Wudang Mountain had the grace to rebuild his life, so he became a monk and worshipped Zhang as a teacher, becoming the 24th generation disciple of the Xuanmen Sect of Wudang Mountain, and devoted himself to practice every day.
In the hundred years after practicing, Li Chengyu has never been ill. The only injury was when she was 104 years old. When Wudang Mountain was covered with snow and ice, Li Chengyu slipped and hurt his hip. Zhang, her master (presumably Zhang was over 20 years old/Kloc-0, the specific situation is unknown), gave Li Chengyu a "longevity stick" and taught her the matching secret of stick technique, asking her to keep the stick well and practice it every day.
Li Chengyu followed the master's instructions and practiced every day for more than ten years.
After Li Chengyu 1 10 years old, Wudang Taoist who combs his hair every day is surprised to find that Li Chengyu's hair is all white and his roots are beginning to turn black. In the following time, it became darker and darker. And during this time, Li Chengyu's lost teeth began to grow new ones!
The signs of "rejuvenation" in Li Chengyu have attracted the attention of local medical experts. They made a physical examination of Li Chengyu and found Li Chengyu's skin, blood pressure, heartbeat and visceral function. Everyone is full of energy, which is not what he should have at his age.
The results of physical examination puzzled the experts, and they couldn't find the reason. In the end, they can only think that Li Chengyu usually pays attention to health preservation and made a documentary for her.
More amazing things are yet to come.
On February 3rd, 2003, Li Chengyu's hair was half white. Except for that lame leg, he moves freely and is full of energy, and he doesn't look old at all. On this day, she didn't go out for morning exercise as usual. After reading a passage, she suddenly asked her disciples to freshen up and then sat on the bed.
Her eyes were calm and she looked out of the window. The next morning, when the first sunshine shone on her, she slowly closed her eyes and said an intriguing sentence: "I'll go too."
Master Li Chengyu got feathered on his couch at 5am at the age of 1 18!
Her experience is like knowing when she will die. After combing, she waited quietly.
In other words, instead of dying, she went to another place. The last sentence "I will go" is the best proof.
