<h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" > pengzu's story</h1>
Legend has it that Pengzu was a native of Huaxian County, Shaanxi. The eighth grandson of the Yellow Emperor, six brothers, the third in line. People of the ancient times are recorded in "Zhuangzi, Getaway".
Legend has it that Peng Zu is very long-lived, the ancestor of China's longevity, living for 880 years.
Why did Peng Zu live 880 years? It is said that the world is divided into three realms, heaven, earth, and earth. The heavens are the Immortal Family, the Immortal Family is immortal, and the status of the Three Realms is the highest. The first-class gods and second-rate Buddhas of the Upper Nine Streams, the third-rate emperors and the fourth-rate officials. The human world is our ordinary mortals, who are born and die, and each has its own life span because of the cause and effect of our accumulation of virtue and good deeds. And the King of Yama, who is in charge of the longevity of mortals, has a total of ten yama kings in the prefecture.
The Ten Heavenly Kings of Yan are 1.King Guang of Qin, King of Chujiang, 3, Emperor of Song, 4, King of Qiguan, 5, King of Yanluo... 10, The Wheel King. The Fifth Temple, Yama, is the King of Yama, in charge of human life and death, and is responsible for black and white impermanence. People's lives and deaths are recorded in their "Book of Life and Death", and the time has come to ask for people according to the book. In "Journey to the West", Sun Monkey made trouble in the mansion. Sun Monkey tore off one page of himself, and later the monkey became a Buddha and an immortal after taking the scriptures, which was not managed by Yan Luo, and was not supplemented later. The Fighting Buddha is higher than Yan Luo, not subject to jurisdiction, and Yan Luo is the Seven Pins of the Prefecture, a very low position in heaven and earth.
One night, Yama And black and white impermanence sorted out the "Book of Life and Death", accidentally overturned the illuminated oil lamp, and dragged the wick out and couldn't find it, that is, the lamp blanch, the black and white impermanence tore a corner on the "Book of Life and Death", rubbed a wick into the oil lamp, who knew that just to tear off the name of "Peng Zu", there was no name of Peng Zu in the Book of Life and Death, and then he could not find Peng Zu, Yan Luo, the black and white impermanence mana was very shallow, because it was the bottom of the Heavenly Court and the Earth Palace, so they let them do these work that was despised by the Three Realms, and the mana was shallow Unable to restore the original appearance of the Book of Life and Death, Peng Zu was left out for more than 800 years and lived until he was 880 years old.
The Heavenly Court Jade Emperor went to court with the gods and immortals one day, and the Antarctic Immortal Weng said that there was a mortal who was about to become a god in the mortal world, and it was 120 days, (heaven and earth for a year) asked the Jade Emperor to arrange a post, and the Jade Emperor said that there was no recent arrangement in the plan for someone to become an immortal, and there was no post, so the Jade Emperor arranged for the bullfighting ersu to shine on the human world, and the "bullfighting" Ersu reported that there was a problem in the Yan Luo Hall, and they left out "Peng Zu". The Jade Emperor then issued a holy decree for Yan Luo to go to the heavenly court for a meeting, so he sent the "Minister of Chincha" Taibai Venus to the underground mansion to read the holy will
Taibai Venus went to the Di Mansion to read out the Holy Will: "The Jade Emperor who holds the Three Realms of Life and Death Honor and Humiliation, the DiFu Yan Luo's life and death control dereliction of duty, resulting in mortals not allowing or becoming immortals, the Heavenly Court is angry, Ling Er waits to go to the Heavenly Court to be punished, and admire this!" ”
Receiving the holy will, Yan Luo asked Taibai, since the Heavenly Court knows, how can we remedy the mistakes we have made, and Taibai Venus did not say it explicitly, thinking that the heavenly opportunity cannot be leaked, but said that you let the black and white impermanence go to the mortal world to wash black charcoal to show punishment for dereliction of duty, Yan Luo said it was okay.
Taibai returned to his life, and Yan Luo sent black and white impermanence to the river to wash black charcoal.
Peng Zu passed by the river, saw two children made the river water is very dark, asked you what are you doing, do not throw stains on the river, two little devils said we wash black charcoal, Peng Zu said, I Peng Zu lived 880 years old and have not heard of washing black charcoal, there are such strange things?! The two little ghosts immediately disappeared and returned to the mansion to report, and Peng Zu realized that he had slipped his mouth. Only then did the King of Yan know that Peng Zu had been missed, and immediately sent the black and white impermanent lock to take Peng Zu back to the yin, and Peng Zu was fixed at the age of 880.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-center-line" > 120 years old is the day year</h1>
Peng Zu lived for 880 years and died. At that time, the heavens stipulated that people live to be 1,000 years old, return to the immortals, as long as they do not make mistakes, enjoy immortality, and commit the heavenly rule, they will be punished in the netherworld, Peng Zu lived for 880 years, did not become a god, and then Yan Luo was punished by heaven, and then the Jade Emperor and Yan Luo jointly discussed, in order to show fairness to the human world, Peng Zu's life expectancy, as the "bottom life" of the human world, means which person is born to enjoy the 880 years of mortal treatment, and then live 120 Yang Shou years plus 880 bottom life years 1000 years can become immortals. It is the heavenly court becoming an immortal.
So the 120-year-old is set as the "heavenly year", the human world said that the person is old, retire home, raise the heavenly year, is to go home to survive the immortal, so 120 years old become the heavenly year.
Tell a folk tale, don't take it seriously, there are those who live to be 120 years old.
