The Eight Immortals crossing the sea is one of the most popular myths and legends among the Chinese people. China story net has compiled a little. Now I’ll give you a detailed explanation. Come and have a look.
Hexiangu is one of the Eight Immortals in folklore and the only female immortal among them! According to the ancient Chinese legend, she and Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao, tie guaili, Cao Guojiu, lvdongbin, Han Xiangzi, and LAN Caihe all achieved the immortal position through virtue and virtue.
Hexiangu currently has many believers in the Chinese speaking area. There are eight immortals palace in Xi’an, and there are incense sticks in Mount Tai! There are two main theories about how hexiangu became an immortal.
The first saying is that eating peaches makes you immortal
According to the records in Luofu Zhi and the general guide to immortals of all dynasties written by Chen Zhen in the Ming Dynasty, hexiangu was a daughter of a family in Zengcheng District, Guangzhou, who made a living selling tofu during the reign of Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, her name was hexiugu.
At the age of 13, when he was picking tea in the mountain, he met a Taoist and got a peach. After eating it, he was never hungry and often helped the local people.
However, when she reached the age of marriage change, her parents hurried to find a husband’s family for her, but hexiugu refused to marry. She had no choice but to commit suicide in a well, but she was strangely revived and became a local mystery. Finally, she became an immortal in the reign of emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty.
The second way is to eat mica and become immortal
Similarly, in the second statement, hexiangu is the daughter of a family in Zengcheng District, Guangzhou, who sells tofu for a living. When she was 14 years old, she met LV Dongbin who traveled here and ate some mica given by LV Dongbin. From then on, she was able to know the misfortunes and blessings of the world.
Following the first statement, hexiangu was forced to marry when she reached the age of marriage, threw herself into a well and rose again.
After the villagers knew that she could predict the future and knew the misfortunes and blessings of others, they built a small building for her to live in and tell their fortunes. After spreading good deeds, he finally became an immortal. Disclaimer: the above content originates from the Internet, and the copyright belongs to the original author.
