Donkey Trouble Volume 4: The Prodigal Son of the Capital 55, the Big Flicker Chen Tuo
There were no immortals in the world, and there were many delusional people, so immortals were created.
In order to cure Zhao Kuangyin's ichthyosis and jaundice, Zhao Hongyin spared no expense and sought medical treatment in many ways, and went to Huashan to find Taoist priest Chen Qian many times just to treat ichthyosis.
What kind of character is Chen Jun, is he really a master and a god?
"Chen Tuo, the word Tunan, Bozhou Zhenyuan people. At the age of four or five, on the side of the whirlpool, there was Tsing Yi and her breasts, and she was increasingly intelligent. And long, read the words of a hundred schools of scripture history, recited at first sight, and never forgotten, quite a poem. After the Tang Dynasty Changxingzhong, the Jin Shi was not the first, so he did not seek Lu Shi, and took the landscape as fun. He said that he had met Sun Junfang and the roe deer bark priest, and the noble people also said: "Wudang Mountain Nine Room Rock can live in seclusion. 'Dig to the perch. Because of the obedience to the valley for more than 20 years, but a few drinks a day. Moved to Huashan Yuntai Temple, and stopped at Shaohua Stone Room. Every sleeping place, more than 100 days. This is contained in the authoritative "History of the Song Dynasty".
There is another wild history record: Chen Jun, alias Fuyaozi, he couldn't speak when he was five years old, and he was called a "dumb child". One day, he was playing by the water and met a woman in Tsing Yi, who called herself a hairy girl. The hairy girl carried Chen Tuan to the mountains and fed her a few mouthfuls of milk, and Chen Tuan opened her mind and spoke from then on.
It can be seen from this that the "Tsing Yi Yuan" in the hidden biography of the "History of the Song Dynasty" refers to the "hairy girl".
"The Legend of the Immortals" recorded: "The hairy woman, the word jade ginger, in the Huayin Mountain, the hunter has seen it in the world, the body is hairy, and he said that he was a person in the palace of the First Qin Emperor, and he was exiled into the mountain for refuge, and he met the Taoist priest Gu Chun called to eat pine leaves, so he was not hungry, and his body was as light as flying." Mao Nu is an immortal who has lived for thousands of years, which is also recorded in the history books.
does not say who the surname of his parents is, but says that the fairy "hairy girl" who has lived for more than a thousand years has fed himself milk, according to this analysis, Chen Jian may have a humble background and is unwilling to expose the embarrassment of being lowly when he was young. If he was born into a wealthy family, his grandmother and his parents were big officials, and they were both rich and noble; or even the orphans of the emperor's people, it was too late for him to show off, would he still deny that he grew up eating his own mother's milk? In order to pursue fame and fortune and improve his status, he did not even dare to recognize the poor parents who gave birth to him and raised him, and this is quite similar to the parents of some poor people in later generations who came to school to give him hard-earned money, dressed in tatters, black and thin, without extravagance, and without prestige, and said that they were "neighbors" and "nannies", and showing off that they were the sons and daughters of a certain rich man!
The dog is not poor and the son is not a mother. No matter how poor the mother is, she is also pregnant in October, and she gave birth to him after all the hardships, and she is also a handful of and urine, and she fed him with bloody milk.
Chen Tuan "recited the words of a hundred schools of thought at first sight", but "did not rank in the scholars", which is also a contradiction. At that time, the imperial examination was the "Eight Strands of Literature", dead knowledge, just suitable for the book basket, both "a hundred schools of history, recited at first sight, and nothing was forgotten", and I wanted to take the exam, and there was nothing that could not be examined. I didn't study well, but I complained about the exam questions, or I was "too nervous and didn't play normally" at the time, and it was better to say less about this kind of face.
As for "quite a poetic name", it is even more fooling the world.
There are not more than ten poems of Chen Shu that have been handed down now, such as "Confused Song" and "Happy Sleep Song", etc., which are obviously the works of later generations of literati, and several other sentences that have been circulated like dot poems have been verified by scholars, and they are suspected of plagiarism or patting Ma literati Zhang Guan Li Dai.
For example, the broken sentence of "Chen Tuo" in "The Complete Song Poems, Volume 1, Volume 1" "The silkworm moon is green in mulberry leaves, and the willow flowers are white when the warbler is in the warbler", from "The Whole Tang Dynasty Poems, Volume 3, Volume 82" Liu Xiyi's "Lone Pine Chapter":
"The silkworm moon mulberry leaves are green, and the willow flowers are white when the warbler is white.
Glamorous smoke and rain, apply Fenyang Chunmo.

Liu Xiyi was born in 651 A.D. and died in 680, a famous literary scholar in the Tang Gaozong and Wuhou periods, and one of the "Four Masters" in the early Tang Dynasty; Chen Tuan was born in 871 A.D. and died in 989, at the end of the Five Dynasties and the beginning of the Song Dynasty. When Liu Xiyi died, Chen Jian had not yet been born, one after the other, there was a difference of more than 100 years, who copied whom, do you need to say?
Another example: "The Complete Song Poems, Volume 1, Volume 1" The broken sentence of "Chen Luan": "Ten thousand white clouds are alone, and there is no one with a branch of Dangui", from "All Tang Poems, Volume 24, Volume 857" Lu Yan's "Seven Words, Thirty-Five":
"Back then, the price of poetry was full of the imperial capital, and it was her husband who lost her arms and returned to the west.
There are thousands of white clouds alone, and there is no one with a branch of osmanthus.
Idle looking for Weiqu fisherman, drunk on the Lianfeng Taoist help.
He met with Jun Zhong every day, and the Zhuxi hut called each other at night. β
Lv Yan, the word Dongbin, Tang Xiantong year (AD 860) Jinshi. When Lu Yan became famous, Chen Yan was only eleven years old, and Lu Yan was a complete poem, and Chen Yan was just a sentence, and the right and wrong were self-evident.
It is included in "Compilation of Anecdotes of the Song People, Volume I, Taizu": "At the beginning of the war, the mother of Taizu picked Taizu and Taizong in the basket to avoid chaos. Chen Kuan's encounter with it, that is, he said: 'Mo Dao has no Son of Heaven today, and he will take the Son of Heaven on the shoulder'", but after Zhao Kuangyin seized the throne, in order to promote himself as the "true dragon son of heaven", he used the name of Chen Kuangyin to fool the people of the world.
If he fails to seek office, he studies qigong, fabricates legendary lies, chases hermit brands, and uses fame and fortune to see that he has dealings with several emperors of the Later Tang Dynasty, Later Zhou, and the Great Song Dynasty.
Chen Kuan has made some achievements in the study of health qigong, this is certain, as for "convincing the qi and opening the valley for more than 20 years", "every bed, more than 100 days", etc., it should be all nonsense that he made up to fool the world and those sycophant literati for the sake of his friendship with Emperor Zhao. This kind of "master" who can "open the valley", "pass through the wall", "carry thousands of miles", and "cure diseases for thousands of miles" will be as many as cattle hair in later generations, but how many people really have that magical power?
At the time, it was touted that expiration was a joke.
Lao Tzu, the patriarch of Taoism, regarded the "Tao" as the ontology of the universe and the law of all things, and a mysterious existence that transcends time and space; used the "Tao" to explore the relationship between nature, society, and life; advocated the Tao of nature, ruled by doing nothing, and lived in harmony with nature; paid attention to cultivation and health preservation, and put forward the cultivation methods of being quiet and inactive, seeing the plain and embracing simplicity, and sitting and forgetting to abide by the first. These ideological methods all have dialectical elements and atheistic tendencies, and their representative figures Pangu, Yellow Emperor, Zhuangzi, Mencius, Liezi, Guiguzi, Ge Hong, Sun Simiao, LΓΌ Dongbin, Wang Chongyang, Zhang Sanfeng and many other elites have research inheritance. However, Chen Tuan focused on Dan Dao spells, convincing Qi and clearing the valley, pursuing immortality and becoming immortals; except for inheriting the part of Lao Tzu, his ideological theory was lackluster. Moreover, many emperors in later generations built palaces and canonized immortals, and the popularity of folk cultivation of spells, Zhai Jiao rituals, fortune-telling and feng shui cannot be said to have nothing to do with his bias from Taoism.
Chen Tuan practiced health qigong, conducted easy study and research, and delved into the inner and outer Dan methods, like many Taoist masters, each has his own achievements and has a certain contribution to mankind, and it is nothing more than that from a high position. He dealt with the emperor many times, and pointed out that it was his vulgar performance that could not bear the loneliness of Qing cultivation and longing for Hongchen, showing off excessively, and even forcibly enforcing his "full affirmation", "high praise" and "outstanding contributions" to the Zhao and Song dynasties, which precisely damaged his reputation as a hermit and was completely a "high-level black" for him. I think he would be unhappy if he really jumped out of the Three Realms and was not a great god in the Five Elements.
Chen Tuan is good at packaging himself (or may be packaged and used by others) - promoting the breastfeeding of the goddess and getting the help of God; he boasts that he never forgets and has strange abilities; he is talented and not an official, and he is elegant; he does not eat in Bigu, and he is profound; he sleeps for more than 100 days, and he is half immortal; and he rides a donkey upside down when he goes out, pretending to be different, and his reputation is of course getting bigger and bigger.
When Zhao Kuangyin was born, Chen Kuangyin was already among the elite celebrities of the Later Tang Dynasty and cultivated in Huashan. Zhao Hongyin heard that he was a big name in the Dao realm, easy to learn and fight, a half-immortal body, and a vast supernatural power, so he took the child to find him.
Although he involves medicine, he does not have a deep understanding of harmony, and he knows very little about skin diseases. Its level will not be much better than that of the later generations of Jianghu doctors who treated various skin diseases on telephone poles and toilet walls.
God is not true, but some people believe in the spirit, and the doctor is not high, as long as he can fool. Chen Kuan's medical skills in treating diseases are not high, but he has been practicing for many years and has a lot of experience.
He has gossip donkeys in the Taoist temple, red gourds hanging on the walls, green smoke in the room, sandalwood incense in the nose, and a fairyland atmosphere everywhere, and he is the most proficient at holding a big wrist shelf. He asked Xiao Daotong to be a nursery, and someone came to look for him, and Xiao Daotong obeyed his instructions, and saw that he was poor, so he said that the master had slept for several months, and did not know where he was sleeping, so let him come back another day;
Zhao Hongyin was dressed in official clothes, with dozens of guards, seven or eight girls, three cars, dozens of war horses, people shouted horses along the way, just arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Xiaodao Tong had already noticed, knew that it was either a big official or a rich man, and ran into the alchemy room to report Chen Quan.
