Zheng Anqi Road is soaring, who is the Taoist friend now?

Zheng Xian, formerly known as Zheng Anqi, also known as An Qisheng, is a true man in the Arctic and a chitose immortal.

1, a native of Langya, Shandong Province, was a representative figure of alchemist activities of Yan Qi in Qin and Han Dynasties, and the successor of Huang Lao's philosophy and Fang Xiandao culture.

2. At the end of Qin Dynasty, alchemist Zheng An traveled through Baiyun Mountain in South Guangdong and lived in seclusion here. One year, a plague prevailed. In order to save the people, he fell off the cliff while picking grass and calamus on the mountain, and drove the crane to become immortal.

3. In order to commemorate him, later generations built the "Zheng Xian Temple" in the place where he ascended the immortal (today's Yunyan), and designated the day of riding a crane to ascend the immortal as "Zheng Xian's birthday", climbing mountains to worship, collecting calamus at the same time, bathing in streams, and praying for good health and strong body, which became a traditional folk festival in Guangzhou.
