Since ancient times Zhongnanshan many hermits.
Datang During the reign of Emperor Taizong, two practitioners lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain. These two practitioners are one of Buddhist monk Xuanlu, and the other is Sun Simiao, who became a legendary legend in later generations. People in the world only know Sun Simiao's achievements in medicine, but they don't know that Sun Simiao is also a practitioner of Taoist , called Miaoying Zhenren . The monk Xuanlu and Sun Simiao lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountains. They exchanged their experiences in practicing with each other, leisurely and comfortable.
On the same day and night, Monk Xuanlu finished his homework that day and was preparing to rest. Suddenly, there was a burst of rapid knocks outside the door. Monk Xuanlu couldn't help but wonder that Zhongnan Mountain is rarely visited on weekdays, so he went around and visited Mr. Sun (Sun Simiao). Why are there still visitors late at night? Moreover, this person knocked on the door urgently, which was obviously an extremely important matter.
Monk Xuanlu silently recited the Buddha's name in his heart, stood up and went out to welcome guests. With the light of stars and moon, Monk Xuanlu saw Hou Li, an old man with a slightly yellow hair and purple face outside the door, with a purple face, looking very anxious.
Monk Xuanlu saw the old man in front of him, and he was slightly stunned at first, thinking to himself why he came to me? Immediately he recited the Buddha's name and said, "The donor is a guest who stirs up the storm, why are you here?"
It turned out that Monk Xuanlu had already seen that the person in front of him was not an ordinary person. To be precise, the old man in front of him was not a human.
The old man knew that the monk in front of him was a practitioner, and he was very anxious about what he wanted, so there was no need to hide his identity. He said to Monk Xuanlu urgently: "I dare not deceive the master, my disciple is the Dragon King of Kunming Pool. It was because of the long drought. The day before yesterday, the Hu monk met the emperor and said to the emperor that he would pray to the heaven with his own magic power, so the emperor approved the report. Now, the Hu monk has set up an altar in my Kunming Pool . In the past seven days, my Kunming Pool has shrunk by several feet."
Speaking of this, the old man showed anger on his face and continued to say to Monk Xuanlu: "However, there is no rain on a drought, so I really cannot let my disciples take charge, but I have to obey the orders of the Heavenly Court. So my disciple sent someone to negotiate with the Hu monk. How could the Hu monk pray for rain for the emperor? Instead, I have to wait for the water of my Kunming pool to dry up and capture my disciples, and take the disciples Longnao as medicine. Seeing that the Kunming pool had shrunk by seven feet, my disciple's life is still in full swing, so I will ask the master for his magic to rescue him."
Monk Xuanlu heard what the old man said, and hesitated in his heart: The Western Regions practitioners used the people's hardships and droughts to bully others for a long time, and wanted to murder the Dragon King from it, without a trace of the compassionate heart of monks. Besides, the Dragon King of Kunming Pond had no evil deeds, so he begged to his door late at night, but wanted to save him. But the Hu monk from the Western Regions went out to the Shu family with me. When I went to resolve this dispute, I would inevitably hurt my fellow disciples.
Monk Xuanlu's plan was right, so he said to the Dragon King of Kunming Chi: "The Dragon King is really saying it. It's just that I am just a monk who keeps the law and has not penetrated into the practice of practice. However, here is Mr. Sun here. He practices both medicine and Taoism, and the Dragon King can ask Mr. Sun for help."
After saying that, Xuanlu guides the Dragon King to come to the stone chamber where Sun Simiao practices. He saw a Taoist priest with a child-faced and crane-haired appearance from the stone chamber. He was energetic and his divine light was restrained in his eyes. He was Sun Simiao, who practiced both medicine and Taoism. After hearing what the Dragon King of Kunming Chi said, Sun Simiao did not shirk it, but said bluntly to the Dragon King: "It is not difficult for the Dragon King to save you, but I also have something to ask for. I know that there are three thousand medical immortal prescriptions hidden in the Dragon Palace of Kunming Chi. If the Dragon King can pass this immortal prescription to me, I will save you."
This is Sun Simiao who wants to take this opportunity to obtain the immortal prescription so that he can benefit the people of Dawn in the future.
When the Dragon King heard that Mr. Sun had offered a condition. In normal times, the Dragon King would never give up the immortals treasured in the Dragon Palace, but he was in danger now and could not care about anything else. Immediately said to Sun Simiao: "The immortal land hidden in my Dragon Palace is not allowed to spread it in absurd way. However, now my Dragon Palace is in danger. I only ask for help from Master Sun, and I will definitely offer it to Master Sun. Master Sun is not allowed to take care of me, so I will come when I go."
After saying that, the Dragon King of Kunming Pool turned back to the Dragon Palace to get the immortal ground. In less than a moment, the Dragon King had already taken the immortal ground. Sun Simiao smiled and said to the Dragon King: "If you want to go back in this way, the Dragon King is not worried about the Hu monk in the Western Regions. "
When the Dragon King returned to the Kunming Dragon Palace, the water in Kunming suddenly rose, and after a few days it overflowed onto the river bank. This was naturally caused by Sun Simiao's use of his supernatural powers. When the Hu monk in the Western Region saw the water in Kunming Lake surge, how could he still covet the Kunming Dragon Palace? Only then did he realize that other practitioners had taken action in the past few days. His own ministry Taoism was insignificant in the eyes of great practitioners. So he died of shame and anger.
And after Sun Simiao obtained the 3,000 medical immortal prescriptions of Kunming Dragon Palace, he also studied it day and night, only seeking to save the lives and health of the world. When Sun Simiao went to the future, he would practice " Qianjin Prescriptions " for three thousand volumes However, Sun Simiao quietly put a copy of the immortal prescription circulated in the Kunming Dragon Palace in each volume. In this way, the three thousand volumes of "Qianjin Prescription" happened to be included in the three thousand immortal prescriptions of the Kunming Dragon Palace. It turned out that the immortal prescription that the Emperor of Heaven did not allow was passed down quietly and benefited the world.
and Sun Simiao was also respected as the King of Medicine by the world. There are many legends about Sun Simiao curing diseases and saving people. Even after Sun Simiao's death, it was said that someone in the world still saw Sun Simiao continue to walk in this world to save illnesses and pain. People in the world always don't want to believe that the King of Medicine who protects health passed away. The legend about the King of Medicine Sun Simiao will continue.
