At present, the average life expectancy of modern Chinese people is 70 years
In that ancient era, when medical conditions were limited, was it true or false to live to the age of 433?
Chen Jun (881 AD - 1324 AD), a legendary figure who experienced the three dynasties of Tang, Song and Yuan, a native of Yongtai County, Fujian Province, died at the age of 443, was the longest-lived Chinese in historical records, and was known as "Little Pengzu".
In the early years, Chen Jun practiced medicine in Yongtai and saw Tangquan Village (now known as Tangcheng Village, Wutong Township, Yongtai County), with beautiful mountains and clear water, good mountains and good water, and hot springs, so he stayed, Chen Jun was enthusiastic and helpful, upright, and respected by the townspeople.
Later, in his later years, Chen Jun's age continued to increase, his muscles became atrophied, no different from children, his children and grandchildren had passed away, all relying on the township people to take turns to provide for him, and when he lived to be more than four hundred years old, Chen Jun weighed less than ten pounds and could not move normally, so the neighbors in the township used hemp bamboo to weave a very large vegetable basket to hold the old man, and the provider took turns to carry him in and out of the house, so the neighbors called him "vegetable basket gong".
Tangquan villagers see Chen Jun so long-lived, they all treat him as a treasure in the world to provide for, and even as a god possessed to treat, weekdays villagers to the field to work, afraid of the old man's loneliness, they like to take him to the field, while working while chatting with the old man, the relationship with each other is very close.
Xiaobian believes that some exaggerations, 433 years old is simply impossible, life and old age, illness and death, life is normal, how many times does this have to go through ghost doors? Do you think it's true or not?
