People's desires are endless. Some people want to live forever when they become emperors. Qin Shihuang is such a person, how can he be a busy "flatterer"? And that Shandong man named Xu Fu is even more itchy. He lied to Qin Shihuang that he met a big fairy at sea, and the big fairy took him to Penglai Mountain in the southeast. There is a very beautiful palace on the hill. He quickly knelt at Daxian's feet. How can Daxian and Qin Shihuang get the elixir of life? Daxian said, "As long as you can send boys and girls and craftsmen, you can get them."
Qin Shihuang was very happy to hear that. Immediately ordered the state to recruit three thousand boys and girls, three hundred craftsmen with the best skills and various seeds and farm tools, and asked Xu Fu to take them to Penglai Mountain to retrieve the elixir.
Chui fook had to crustily skin of head and disembark from Shandong. It's just that he knows where this medicine is in the world. I'm resigned to my fate. Let the boat drift in the sea. I don't know, I drifted for a few days and nights, and suddenly I saw a high mountain in the sea, which was covered with tall and big trees. This is really a rare place. He said to the people on board, "This is Penglai Mountain".
Chui fook took everyone up the mountain, built a Taoist temple and dug a well at the foot of the mountain, intending to live in seclusion here for a long time. Unexpectedly, in the second year, Qin Shihuang's southern tour, Xu Fu was scared to death. He knew that if the emperor found him hiding here, he would be killed with her. Chui fook overnight with virgins, craftsmen get off the boat to escape. It is said that he later drifted to Japan to settle down. Penglai Mountain has left Taoist temples and wells made by Xu Fujian.
Later, a Taoist named Tao Hongjing traveled all over the world, seeking immortality and alchemy. Discover Penglai Mountain and Taoist temples on the mountain, and wells under the mountain. He settled down. I took spring water from a well and went to Penglai Mountain for alchemy. He also painted his portrait on the wall in the landscape.
Xiangshan County was established in the Tang Dynasty, and the county seat is Pengmu Village at the foot of Penglai Mountain. Later, someone dug up a stone tablet on Penglai Mountain, engraved with the origin of Penglai View and Well. According to the inscription, people renamed Penglai Mountain as Danshan, built an alchemy pavilion, rebuilt the Penglai view, shaped the image of Tao Hongjing, named the well of Tao Hongjing alchemy as "Single Crystal" and named the county seat at the foot of Penglai Mountain as "Dancheng", which has been in use ever since. Sima Qian recorded the story of "Confucius asking for gifts from Laozi" in Historical Records, and this legend found physical evidence in Guoyang County, Laozi's hometown. The reporter learned from the local government department in Yang Guo that Wang Zhenchuan, a Shanghai scholar, discovered an ancient tablet of Confucius asking for gifts when he visited the county.
This stone tablet, which is considered as "Confucius asking for gifts from Laozi", was found in Xianglaojia Village, Dancheng Town, Guoyang County. The discoverer Wang Zhenchuan is a member of the Shanghai Religious Association. He devoted himself to studying Laozi 10 for many years, and came to the conclusion that "Yangguotianjing Palace is the birthplace of Laozi". According to historical records, Laozi was a native of Guxiang County in the Spring and Autumn Period. Dancheng Town is named after Laozi's alchemy, and several local cultural relics about Laozi have been unearthed.
The ancient monument is1.5m high, 0.5m wide and 0.2m thick. The upper right corner is incomplete, but the image is still clear. The front image is three layers, in which the above picture shows three people standing; The image in the middle is two hosts, one on the left is on the side, kneeling, holding his hands forward, and the other on the right is sitting in front. Below is a container with gifts: a pair of geese and carp, a pile of dried meat, etc. There is a dragon pattern on the back of the monument.
Wang Zhenchuan believes that Confucius once praised Laozi as the "Dragon of Judah", and the back of the monument happens to be this dragon. The three people on the front of the monument should be students accompanying Confucius. This scene is just in line with the ancient literature "Confucius asked Laozi about the ceremony".
According to Xiang et al. of Xiang Laojia Village in Guoyang County, this monument was excavated from the ground when the villagers built the ancestral hall in the early years, but it was abandoned at the head of the village because its significance and value were unknown. This ancient monument has been properly placed in the villagers' homes. The local government is inviting experts to conduct textual research in order to make an academic appraisal of this monument.
