Chapter 223: Alternative Folk Sayings About "Zhang San Crazy".

Last time, I talked about "Zhang Sanfeng" in another time and space, and he did not meet the "giant girl" urging his younger brother, let alone being given the "cultivation method" by the "Daigo empowerment".

Whenever people in later generations mention the real character in history, "Tai Chi Patriarch Zhang Zhenren", many people may not know about him through history textbooks, but from the famous Hong Kong martial arts novelist "Jin Yong" in the work "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" began to understand "Zhang Sanfeng".

At that time, "Zhang Sanfeng" appeared on the stage, with a long white beard, a Taoist robe, and the appearance of an elderly man with Taoist bones and fairy wind, kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

It's just that although this kind old man seems to be weak, he is actually strong and powerful, and the "Taijiquan" he created has been passed down to this day. In addition, he is the "founding patriarch" of the "Wudang faction", that is, the "head", and there are seven personal disciples under him, called the "Wudang Seven Heroes".

Although there are many interpretations and exaggerations in the novels, "Zhang Sanfeng" himself is a real "special character" in Chinese history. The first is his "mysterious age", the second is whether he has "become an immortal", and finally he is still alive?

Most historical figures, although a lot of information will be controversial because of their age, but there are few people like "Zhang Sanfeng" who are even obsessed with age.

There is a record about him in "Ming History: Fang Ling". "Sanfeng" is his name, his original name is "Zhang Quanyi", also known as "Zhang Junbao". According to some information, Zhang Junbao was born in the seventh year of Emperor Chunyou of the Song Dynasty, that is, on the 9th day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar in 1247 (May 15 of the solar calendar), which has been 777 years ago.

The records of various historical materials are not consistent, some write that Zhang Sanfeng Xian died in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and even record that he died in the Tianshun period of Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the various legends pursued by the ancient folk are like a unique halo, surrounding the head of Zhang Zhenren. In the Ming Dynasty alone, there were as many as 16 emperors who were painstakingly looking for "Zhang Sanfeng". The reason why they are so painstaking to find "Zhang Sanfeng" is actually very simple, they all want to get a longer life or an immortal body, and enjoy the unique honor of this "whole world, it is not the king's land" for a long time, especially they want to live forever.

The emperor who asked for the immortal to ask for the question has been in ancient times, and it is like a crucian carp crossing the river, and there is an endless stream. Qin Shiyingzheng Penglai asked, and did not hesitate to send Xu Fu to cross east into the sea with the boy and virgin. In the Ming Dynasty, this trend began to flourish again, and it had the potential to surpass the Qin Emperor, because the emperors of the Ming Dynasty believed in Taoism and wanted to live forever.

More than one emperor once gave "Zhang Zhenren" the title of reward. For example, Ming Chengzu named him "Pudu Tianzun", and Ming Yingzong was not to be outdone...... There are so many titles that each emperor scrambles to add beautiful words such as "flying dragon", "true immortal" and "true monarch".

From this point of view, these emperors should take the opportunity of the title to meet Zhang Zhenren, or make friends with God, as long as he teaches him the secret of longevity and immortality. However, there is no record of the Son of Heaven finding Zhang Zhenren in any history.

During the period of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court released the news that Xuanzhao Zhang Sanfeng entered the palace several times, but there was no result.

The legendary "Zhang Sanfeng" is actually an ordinary-looking person, dressed sloppily and sloppy, and wrapped in a tattered robe and a simple robe all year round to keep out the cold, which has nothing to do with the "fairy wind bones" in the eyes of later generations. Why? The end is extremely weird!

It is rumored that Zhang Sanfeng has a clear skeleton, and he has been a good seedling for martial arts since he was a child. Because he is exceptionally strong, although he is busy every day, he can still walk like a fly, even if he sleeps in the snow in winter and is exposed to the sun in summer, he has not been able to damage his body in the slightest, forming a thief stick with good physical fitness!

What's even more exaggerated is that it is said that "Zhang Sloppy" can eat all the Shengdou with one meal, or he can go without food for several months, just in terms of physical fitness, he is already a legendary existence. If this is the case, then he has at least cultivated to the realm of the "Bigu Period", which is equivalent to the strength of the "Great Perfection of Qi Refining".

In addition, Zhang Sanfeng is also erudite and memorized, and he never forgets what he has learned. There is even a legend that he has the magic skill to go thousands of miles away in one day!

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di is probably one of the "movement" of the biggest trouble, after many years of hard work to no avail, he did not hesitate to mobilize as many as 300,000 people to repair the Wudang Mountain Golden Palace, which was later called the "Jade Void Zixiao Palace" magnificent building. Due to its huge size, it took seven years to complete.

In the "Zixiao Palace" is enshrined is the statue of Zhang Sanfeng, and respected as "Pudu Tianzun", Zhu Di's admiration and respect for Zhang Sanfeng can also be seen. In addition to building a palace, Zhu Di's enthusiasm for finding Zhang Sanfeng also continued to rise, and he did not hesitate to use many people to go to the north and south of the river, just to find out the specific whereabouts of Zhang Sanfeng, in order to obtain the method of immortality, but the result can be imagined, just empty joy, after all, "immortals are different".

Unable to find the "Zhang Zhenren" that the emperor had in mind, the ministers had no choice but to make up a reason that could not be confirmed but could not be falsified, and said that "Zhang Zhenren" had been invited by the "Taishang Laojun" in heaven and went to the "Heavenly Court" for a banquet. And the sky is "one day on the ground, one year on the earth", probably because "Zhang Zhenren" has found other errands in the heavenly palace, so he can't come to the world alone, that's all. Whoever deceives himself can just speak freely and comfort himself.

Although this reason seems funny now, Zhu Di believed it at the beginning, and personally repaired three letters, and invited "Zhang Zhenren" to the capital with a religious attitude. The messenger in the middle "relayed" it to "Zhang Zhenren", and also brought back the reply of "Zhang Zhenren".

In addition to some prevarication, there are nothing more than some words of affirmation and wishes, and some health preservation methods are also talked about, so that the emperor can prolong his life.

In this regard, Zhu Dilong's heart is happy. Among the many legends and stories about "Zhang Sanfeng", there are things about him being able to "come back from the dead", which is particularly amazing.

In a record of "Taiyuan County Chronicles", he once lived in a valley, during which he only relied on the aura of heaven and earth to breathe, without eating or drinking, but he could still energetically help the local people to cultivate crops.

But one day, he died without warning, and the people were so sad that they had to bury him in the valley nearby. But the miraculous thing is that a few months later, a villager who went out met him again in Xi'an, thousands of miles away, and the two talked and talked, he was no different from ordinary people, and the end was extremely weird.

After analysis, many historians believe that the so-called "Zhang Sanfeng" may not be accurate in the records of various places, nor may it be the same person, and some news may have been disseminated for various political purposes or religious reasons. After all, under the living conditions of ancient times, it is extremely rare for an elderly person to live to be 200 years old, let alone live to be 100 years old.

Therefore, according to various historical records, it is said that "Zhang Sanfeng" has a life of 218 years, and the short one is 170 years old! This age is not accepted by the public today, when science and technology are changing with each passing day, because the oldest person in the world today is only 145 years old.

I really can't imagine that in ancient China more than 700 years ago, based on the very backward medical and material conditions at that time, such a long-lived person could be produced? Unless this person is a legendary "cultivator", only "cultivating immortals", "becoming a Buddha", "sealing gods", "entering demons", "refining demons", and "becoming ghosts" will be like this.

History is still written by man, let alone wild history that can't even be called the official history? Therefore, the "Zhang Sanfeng" in many historical materials may be just a special combination, just like "Zhang Sanfeng" has traveled through time and space, and has been chiseled and attached in various documents and word of mouth.

Seventy years of life are rare! If a mortal wants to become a "fairy old man" who has a lifespan of several hundred years, he is of course pinned on the hope of "immortality". However, mortals are ignorant and ignorant, they don't know the subtleties of the Dharma, and they don't know the true meaning of the Dharma.
