The Folk Tales of the Queen Mother of the West and the Flat Peach Fairy China

There is a Wangxian Bridge near Miao Ting Temple in West Lake.

Dong Yuanxing, a Taoist priest in Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty, dug up a rare bronze medal in a nearby building, which vaguely read: "I have a flat peach, which is born once in a thousand years. Who will steal it? " You must ask Dong Shuangcheng. "

Dong Shuangcheng is the legendary flat peach fairy of the Queen Mother of China and the West, and Wang Xianqiao is the place where she achieved something, boasted about jade life and drove away the crane fairy.

Dong Shuang's cost is a stunning beauty along the Qiantang River in the west, and she is permeated with a delicate charm.

Her ancestors were historians of the Shang Dynasty, who were self-restrained, self-abased and self-restrained, and occasionally learned from the imperial court and made suggestions.

After the death of Shang Dynasty, he settled on the banks of Qiantang River, flew in to plant peaches and build houses. Whenever peach blossoms are in full bloom in early spring, they are full of purples, and living in them is tantamount to fairy life.

Such a living environment raised Dong Shuangcheng from an early age. Dong Shuangcheng, who looks like a weak willow, loves peach blossoms and is infatuated.

Look at Dong Shuangcheng's growth. His beautiful face and bright eyes are as beautiful as flowers.

One day, it occurred to me that Cao Zhi and I were picking peach blossoms in the mountains and refining Dan medicine.

At first, it can only clear phlegm and turn qi into gas, but over time, it is perfect. After repeated research, the temperature and formula were gradually improved.

The refined Dan medicine can actually treat a variety of internal diseases, far and near, and people who come to fly to Dong's home to get medicine are in an endless stream.

From collecting raw materials to guarding the furnace and refining alchemy, Dong Shuangcheng is often as busy as a bee. Blowing sheng, who entertains himself in his spare time, will sing a song "Dan Xiaofeng" when he is interested.

It is said that when she is in blowing sheng, hundreds of birds will fly in the air, and when she sings, cranes will fly to listen.

When the theory of "yellow race people" rose, it advocated the technique of fairy guidance, which greatly met the appetite of aristocratic descendants. So they chose a place with excellent scenery, built a secluded place, sent it to misty clouds, absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and refined the juice of flowers, in order not to eat fireworks on earth, and then soared in the daytime to become immortals.

Dong Shuangcheng flew to Hangzhou West Lake with his family to build a house and make an alchemist. She is not a Taoist woman. At that time, there was no such name as Taoism. It was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty that the true Taoism evolved into a religion, established Taoist temples, taught disciples and absorbed believers. Taoism and Taoism are two different concepts. Taoism is a philosophical thought and Taoism is a religion. Taoism appropriated some Taoist viewpoints and borrowed them from the founders of Taoism.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling practiced the world by magic, while in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Kou humbly gave Lao Zi as his ancestor, mainly Zhang Daoling. As a formal religion, Dong Shuangcheng was born in the Western Zhou Dynasty, with a time difference of 108,000 miles. It can only be regarded as spontaneous practice, not to mention the identity of a female Taoist.

On a beautiful spring afternoon, Dong Shuangcheng made a furnace of "Baihua Pills", which was full of fragrance and spread to Wan Li. After taking a few pills, he felt refreshed and energetic. He plays with a sheng, gathers birds and dances around them. Dong Shuangcheng's spirit became more and more bright and vigorous, and he couldn't help singing a song, which attracted cranes.

On the west side of Yaochi in Kunlun Mountain, there lived the famous Queen Mother.

Who is the heavenly queen? There are quite different accounts in various records. Some people say that she is the queen of a small country in the ancient western regions, with sharp teeth and a ferocious face. She screamed at the sky, and every time she let the beast escape.

Some people say that her surname is Yang and she lives in Kunlun Mountain. She has become an immortal, replacing the jade emperor to perform the task of the heavenly palace. She is an elegant semi-old Xu Niang.

On the way to the Western Expedition in the 16th year, Zhou Muwang passed through Kunlun Mountain. It is said that he was entertained by the Queen Mother of the West and spent many days drinking and writing poems in Yaochi. On the way back, he wanted to see it again, but he saw deep mountains and dense forests, and there was no trace to be found.

It's difficult to explore the immortal's affairs, especially in the theocratic era, human thoughts and behaviors are mostly restrained and dominated by the immortal, and the existence of the gods in the first three feet makes all living beings refrain from doing anything, which is a great force to maintain the stability of human society. It is unknown whether the Queen Mother of the West represents the Jade Emperor in the mission of the Heavenly Palace, but she lives by the Yaochi Lake in Kunlun Mountain, which is not only traceable, but also recorded in history.

The crane carrying Dong Shuangcheng flew farther and farther and came to Kunlun Mountain. Dong Shuang became the queen mother's "communication", much like today's confidential secretary. Dong Shuangcheng is responsible for communicating with the immortals of all walks of life, and is essentially the attendant of the Queen Mother. To be more specific, he seems to belong to the personal maid of the Queen Mother of the West.

West * * * Queen Mother has four personal maids, besides Dong Shuangcheng, there are three others, Wang Zideng, Guo and Ji. Dong Shuangcheng's position, among the four ladies-in-waiting, is probably the identity of the foreman, which can be confirmed from the previous situation of the Queen Mother of the West.

In addition, from the fact that Dong Shuangcheng was ordered to guard Flat Peach, we can see that she was trusted and valued in Fairy Palace.

Flat peach is a heterogeneous peach tree with flat branches. Only once in 3000 years, it is the best fruit in the fairy palace. From the usual planting protection to the picking and distribution of fruits, Dong Shuangcheng is fully responsible. Every Yaochi Festival, the flat peaches given to Qi Xian by the Queen Mother of the West pass through Dong Shuangcheng's pseudo-delicate hands.

In addition to the above-mentioned Zhou Muwang, there is another person on the earth who has eaten cricket peaches, that is, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

According to the Biography of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in April of the sixth year of Yuanfeng, Emperor Wu welcomed the Queen Mother of the West to the front of the Hua Dian, but when she saw the Queen Mother of the West descending from the sky surrounded by fairy tales, she walked slowly with a sword around her waist, wearing flowers, a morning baby crown and shoes of Yuan Orange and Phoenix, depending on the year.

The Queen Mother of the West was helped to Chenghua Hall by a fairy with a good face. This fairy is Dong Shuangcheng.

When talking with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Queen Mother of the West took out the true image of the Five Mountains in her sleeve and gave it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and ordered Dong Shuangcheng to give it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ate it, he only felt that the perfect Shu Tai was full of teeth, so he carefully put away the peach stones and prepared to plant them.

The Queen Mother of the West said with a smile, "This peach bears fruit once every 3,000 years, and the land in midsummer is too thin to plant."

After eating a flat peach, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became fascinated by this rare fairy fruit. Its delicacy, especially its peculiar effect in the body after eating, made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty salivate.

At that time, there was a very interesting man named Dong Fangshuo. In China, a country that emphasizes modesty, he seeks official positions through articles.

He even praised himself strongly, and wrote in the article: "Less bereavement of parents, raising brothers and sisters-in-law, studying for twelve years and three winters, and using literature and history adequately;" Fifteen learned fencing, sixteen learned poetry, and recited 220,000 words. Nineteen learned Sun Wu's art of war, the concept of war, and the teaching of drums, and also recited 220,000 words. Now, there are twenty-two. They are nine feet three inches long, their eyes are hanging like beads, their teeth are like shells, their courage is like Meng Ben, their agility is like Qing Ji, their honesty is like Bao Shu, and their faith is like a tail. If only it could be the minister of Tianzi! Is to risk your life and worship again. "

At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought he was a poor writer and boasted. At first, he was only asked to wait for the bus, but he soon won the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and was promoted to a doctor.
