In the 1930s, China's most cattle old man died, which was reported by the New York Times and Time magazine, li Qingyuan, who was born in the fifteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, in 1677, and finally in 1933, at the age of 256.
Conclusion An expert community was in an uproar, what? Is this against the sky? Is this a violation of natural ethics and contrary to the common sense of human society? Who can live more than 100 years old is rare, 200 up to think about it, it is impossible. ‘
If Li Qingyuan is really a miracle in human history, counting from the year he was born, he may have survived kangxi to the ninth emperor of Xuantong, he experienced Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi, Guangxu, Xuantong, Xiong zhao, so that these self-proclaimed "long live" nine-five-year-old gods, in the eyes of this longevity immortal, is simply funny, he single-handedly made the Qing Dynasty a joke, and finally succeeded in killing the Qing Dynasty, and after the Republic of China, he lived for an extra twenty years.
What is even more enviable is that Li Qingyuan married 24 wives and raised more than 180 offspring, which is not his heart, it is really his young wife, and none of them can survive him.
Because things are too surprising, so many experts are not convinced, they cite various examples to show that Li Qingyuan is bragging, their conclusion is that the records of Li Qingyuan's age are derived from local chronicles and folklore, the actual age can not be examined, and then say that 100 years old and 150 years old, 200 years old are a ghost look, from now medical point of view, there is no way to accurately judge the age with the folds of the skin, he is not a tree stump, with his own rings, it can be seen that he lived for more than 200 years The credibility of this matter is very low... So, they decided to ignore the villagers who had met Li Qingyuan and said that they had given him a 150th birthday, and that the Qing government had once issued him a small pennant when he was 100 years old to reward him for his special contributions to traditional Chinese medicine.
It can be seen that Li Qingyuan is a doctor, and is a Chinese medicine doctor, aside from whether he has lived to be 256 years old, the profession of Chinese medicine is the profession of longevity, learning to seek medical advice, giving yourself a pulse to see a doctor, it is indeed a prolonged life.
However, in order to prove that his theory is correct, experts even consulted the list of thousands of feasts in the Qianlong period and found that Li Qingyuan was far from it, if he was born in the fifteenth year of Kangxi, the thousand feasts held in Qianlong should be 108 years old, why is there no him on the list?
However, some people say that when he was 200 years old, the Qing government also held a birthday banquet for him, and Li Qingyuan also had a photo left, which was during the Republic of China period, someone paid for Li Qingyuan to advertise a tobacco company, when he was 250 years old, his head was put on a cigarette box, what does it mean? Can smoking live longer?
In fact, we don't need to worry about how big he lives, now in terms of technology, almost people who will maintain health can break through the 100 mark, we only need to learn the health of longevity people is enough.
Li Qingyuan has been in particularly good health since he was a child, and he said that the reason why he will live a long life is because he pays great attention to diet, not only eats vegetarian for a long time, but also pays attention to the health secrets of "not enough to eat, too full to hurt the stomach, not to sleep too long, too long to dissipate the essence" These health secrets.
Second, drink more tea, use chinese herbs such as lotus leaves, cassia seeds, monk fruit, goji berries and other Chinese herbs as tea to drink water, which can prolong life.
Third, it is a long-term use of black beans, purslane, celery, honeysuckle, hawthorn, green tea, seaweed, chrysanthemum, etc., which is named "Hundred Herbs Immortal Formula" to maintain the three links of the human body, blood, urine and stool"This is the secret guide left by Li Qingyuan to the longevity of future generations.
Fourth, he always believed that maintaining a calm and tranquil mind and "three links" were necessary for a long life. Maintain a calm state of mind, sit like a turtle, walk like a bird, sleep like a dog" This is the secret guide that Li Qingyuan left for future generations to live longer. His diet was dominated by rice and a small amount of wine.
Li Qingyuan believes that people's life expectancy is long and short, which is dominated by Yuan Qi. Yuan Qi, also known as original qi, is nurtured by nature and nurtured by the heavens. He figuratively compares loving and not loving Yuan Qi to the location where candles are stored. If the lit candle is placed in the cage, it will burn for a long time; if it is placed in the wind and rain, the time will be short or extinguished. The same is true of health.
