309. Changchunzi Qiu Chuji

Therefore, the kings of the Ming Dynasty no longer believed in the Penglai Fairy Island or the Holy Mountain of Kyushu, but instead supported the Taoist priests of Wudang Mountain in refining elixirs.

The sects, Rixin sect, Penglai sect, Tanta sect, Yinxian sect, Wudang Dan sect, Yulong sect... are countless. The elixirs presented to the palace were greatly used by the emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Except for a few emperors, almost all of them were

The average life span of Chinese emperors was the shortest.

Later, when Tatar soldiers entered the country during the Qing Dynasty, Prince Regent Dorgon issued an order prohibiting folk Taoists from refining alchemy. Only then did China's emperors pursue their pursuit of alchemy for thousands of years. Most of the Taoist temples on Wudang Mountain were abandoned except for the Wudang Sect founded by Zhang Sanfeng.

According to my understanding, Wudang Mountain is known as "an unparalleled scenic spot in ancient times, the best fairy mountain in the world". The fairy origin comes from its pulse energy, and it is a geomantic treasure land that is unique in the world. I don't have a panoramic aerial photo of Wudang Mountain.

Picture, it’s dark now, and I can’t really see the movement of the entire mountain range. I only have a superficial understanding of Feng Shui, and I don’t have much ability to distinguish gold points and fix acupoints. If I were an expert, I’d probably know at a glance what the attributes of Wudang Mountain are.

What kind of lineage.

In addition, although Taoists can eat wine and meat, most of them are pure green food in the mountains. The old Taoist also invented Tai Chi to cultivate his body and mind. Think about it, the air was not polluted at that time, Wudang Mountain was noisy at noon, and he ate green food and drank all day long.

There are sweet springs in the mountains, and you can exercise all day long. Even if you don't live to 100, it will be difficult.

This topic is a bit far-fetched, so let’s get back to the topic.

The two of us headed back to the mountain along the wilderness trail we remembered last time, and naturally encountered many abandoned Taoist temples on the way. It was okay at first. The forest was quiet, the insects were chirping, and the moon was shining brightly. It was a perfect place for a couple to go on a date.

The artistic conception, we chatted happily, talking about everything from all over the world, but although she was kind to me, she rarely really discussed matters between men and women with me. The mountain road was rugged and it was difficult to walk only a few miles without a horse.

She was so tired that she was wheezing and even Meihui was yelling to rest. She was sweating all over in the cold weather and feeling so cold that she must have caught a cold.

There happened to be an abandoned Taoist temple nearby, and we wanted to pick up some firewood to drive away the moisture. However, Wudang Mountain was no better than Changbai Mountain in our hometown. The mountains were green all year round, and there was no dry firewood to be found at all. Fortunately, the two of us had just just

We were quite full after eating at the foot of the mountain.

To be honest, this feels very strange. A man and a woman spend the night in a deserted Taoist temple deep in the mountains. They don’t have any firewood but their hearts are full of excitement. It’s just that this Taoist temple makes me unable to get emotional. I can see that it’s often the same here.

The resting place for the mountain people is dilapidated but not deserted. It is indistinguishable from the Crow Temple in Changbai Mountain. There is a huge utensil in the Taoist temple. It looks like it was used by Taoist priests to make alchemy in the past. Walking further inside

It is the Jade Emperor Hall. The stone statue of the Jade Emperor is enshrined in the Jade Emperor Hall, but the incense table has long since lost the tribute and the incense.

After passing through the Jade Emperor's Hall, there is a slightly smaller hall with a plaque hanging on it, "Qiu Zu Hall." Meihui asked me what this meant. Was the former abbot of this Taoist temple named Qiu?
