    Because Peng Zu belongs to the representative of the Taoist tradition, Taoism pays attention to the theory of inaction and immortality, and Peng Zu practices Taoist qigong and spitting method, so people describe him as a long-lived person.

    Peng Zu had a great influence in history. Confucius held him in high esteem; Pre-Qin thinkers such as Zhuangzi, Xunzi, and Lü Buwei all had remarks about Peng Zu. "Zhuangzi Deliberately" once regarded him as a representative figure of guiding and cultivating form.

    Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci Tianwen" also recorded that "Peng Keng poured the pheasant emperor for what feast, and how did Shouyong Duofu ask for longevity?" It means that he is good at food therapy, so he has a long life. Wang Yi's note and Hong Xingzu's supplement both mentioned that he could cook a good dish, and the cooked chicken soup was delicious, and Emperor Yao appreciated it very much after tasting it, so he gave him Pengcheng.

    Historical records and other historical books also have records about him; Taoism also regarded Peng Zu as one of the pioneers and founders, and many Taoist classics preserve Peng Zu's health legacy. Jin Dynasty physician Ge Hong wrote the "Legend of the Immortals" also for Peng Zuli, the king at that time sent someone to ask him for advice, he only said: "I was born in the womb, lost my mother at the age of three, was rebelled by the dogs, and was exiled from the Western Regions for more than 100 years."

    With less withering, he lost forty-nine wives, lost fifty-four sons, suffered several sorrows, was wounded by harmony, and his glory and defense were scorched, and he was afraid that he would not survive. What is heard is shallow and not enough publicity. ”

    It's true. According to the ancient calculation, Peng Zu did live for more than 800 years.

    Reasons: 1. Peng Zu does have his own person: the earliest documentary record in China is the "Book of Shang".

    Shangshu said that Peng was in the northwest of Dongshu, which was now Pengshan County in Meishan, and later Liu Xiang of the Western Han Dynasty recorded it in more detail in his "Biography of the Immortals": Peng Zu, at the end of the summer, was more than 800 years old.

    Yes, when Shun was shi, he learned the truth from Yin Shouzi, and then lived in seclusion in Wuyi Mountain. By the end of the Shang Dynasty, he was 767 years old (some say more than 800 years old), and despite his age, he still did not show aging. He likes to be quiet since he was a child, does not pursue fame, does not learn from the world, does not deliberately dress himself, and spends his days in health and self-cultivation.

    The king of Shang asked him to be a doctor, but he couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree, but he often didn't go to the court to listen to the government on the grounds of illness. He is proficient in the art of tonic guidance; Often take water cinnamon, mica powder, elk horn powder. is usually silent, never boasting that he has a way, and never doing something deceitful and changing ghosts in order to gain fame.

    Not really, just legends.

    According to "Historical Records of the Chu Family": "Peng Zu's family, Yin's time tasted as Hou Bo, and Yin's last days destroyed Peng Zu's family." ”

    Translation: The clan of Peng Zu, who was given a title in the early Shang Dynasty, existed until the fall of the Shang Dynasty, because the Shang Dynasty existed for 800 years, so the clan also existed for 800 years.

    Note: "clan" was often used as a title for clans in ancient times. Pengzu is actually a clan named after him.

    The Qing dynasty Kong Guangsen clearly explained this situation in his note "Liezi Liming Chapter". The so-called Peng Zu is eight hundred years old, which is actually the number of years of existence of the Great Peng Clan.

    During the Yaoshun period when Peng Zu was born, the calendar of Xiaojia years was followed, and the ancients called 60 days a year. According to the conversion of the calendar of the ancients, Peng Zu's so-called more than 800 years old is equivalent to more than 130 years old now, which is not different from Zhang Sanfeng's life of more than 120 years, which is still in line with scientific principles.

    However, there is no objection to the various legends of Peng Zu who are good at health preservation in the past dynasties, and it can be inferred that because Peng Zu is a clan that is good at health preservation, there are many long-lived people in the clan, and they are famous all over the world, so they gradually produce legends such as Peng Zu's longevity of 800 and spread them to future generations.

    Among the legendary birthday stars in my country, Peng Zu lived to be 800 years old, and he was the longest-lived old man. Did you really live to be 800 years old? It's hard to verify, and it's hard to believe.

    However, according to the records of the "Chinese" and "Shiji", Peng Zu was indeed a person and was known for his longevity. The "Biography of the Immortals" written by the Jin Dynasty physician Ge Hong also has a special biography of Peng Zuli. In the book, it is said that Peng Zu had lived to be 700 years old at the end of Yin, and King Yin specially asked him to introduce the way of longevity.

    Peng Zu's longevity regimen has the following four aspects.

    First, pay attention to physical exercise. Get up in the early hours of the morning, sit upright, rub your eyes, massage, rub your lips and throat, keep your dantian, and inhale dozens of times; Then get up, bear the path of the bird stretch, luck Gong, etc., he is the earliest founder of Qigong, this set of fitness methods, was written by later generations as "Peng Zu Guidance Method".

    Second, it is ideological cultivation, he never cares about fame and fortune, does not pursue material enjoyment, and is emotionally quiet and contemplative. King Yin gave him 10,000 gold, which he used to help the poor, leaving nothing for himself. Not burdened by "prudence and reputation", and always maintain a good mental state.

    Third, it is the habit of life, he insists on following nature, does not harm the body, pays attention to keeping warm in winter, often enjoys the cool in summer, conforms to the four solar terms, makes the body comfortable and healthy, attaches importance to the combination of work and rest, uses the brain to avoid excessive, dresses for the right and not fashionable, and reasonably adjusts the life and diet of men and women, and said: "All such things, such as water, are harmful if they are used too much." ”

    Peng Zu Peng Zu, the legend of the surname Jian (Jian) name Keng, is the grandson of Wu Hui of the Zhurong clan, the third son of Lu Zhong's family, according to the "Legend of the Immortals", this Keng "is less good and quiet, not caring for world affairs, not fame, not decorating car clothes, but from the health of the body." He was a doctor, but he often complained of illness and lived idle, did not participate in political affairs, and often traveled alone, without riding chariots and horses, "for hundreds or tens of days, without food." Because he has a deep understanding of the cultivation of nature, he is "two hundred and seventy years old, and he regards it as such."

    Fifty or sixty years old. It is said that this Xun Keng lived to the end of Yin "to be 767 years old and not to grow old." This Xun Keng is said to be a pheasant and five flavors, created a pheasant soup, dedicated to Emperor Yao, praised by Yao, Yao therefore named him the princes of Pengdi, Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci Tianxiang", so there is a sentence of "Peng Keng poured the pheasant emperor He Fang, suffered a long life, and the husband was long".

    The descendants of this son reproduced and became the ancestor of the Da Peng clan, so he was called "Peng Zu". Therefore, Pengcheng is in Xuzhou, Jiangsu, "Xuzhou Mansion Chronicles": "Tang Yao sealed the country of the Great Peng, and its city is at the foot of the Great Peng Mountain, thirty miles away from the present city.

    There is a poem in the old Pengcheng: "Yongwu is good at the ancestor Peng Keng, and the three squares seek to learn from the ancient Pengcheng." The princes of the Nine Societies served as the secretary, and the princes of the Eight Plates and Five Gui feasts. ”

    Not really.

    This is a misunderstanding, and the reason for this misunderstanding is that there was no unified standard for the calculation of years in ancient China.

    Peng Zu was born in Pengshan, Sichuan, grew up in Pengshan, and died in Pengshan in his later years. In the countryside around Pengshan, there is still a popular way of counting the year of "Xiaojiazi", that is, 60 days for a year.

    Liu Jixing's research and discovery from the bamboo slips unearthed from the tomb of Confucius found that the ancient year did have a saying that 60 days was 1 year old. According to today's chronological standards, Peng Zu only lived to be more than 130 years old.

    Historians also believe that the so-called Peng Zu is 800 years old, which is actually the number of years of existence of the Great Peng State.

    The longest life expectancy of human beings is about 120 years old, and the reason why ordinary people do not live to this age is because we violate the natural laws of human life many times in our daily life.

    At present, the pollution of the human living environment, the safety of diet, the state of hygiene, etc., and some of the bad habits of human beings themselves are also inseparable. Therefore, if you want to live a long life, you also need to develop good lifestyle habits and get rid of your bad habits. Maintain an optimistic attitude towards life and mental state.

    One hundred and forty years old.

The age of life expectancy is more than 880 (the Shang period adopted the method of calculating the year of 60 days for one life, which is equivalent to more than 140 years old now). According to research, he is not only the longest-lived old man in ancient China, the founder of Chinese health culture, but also the ancestor of Chinese cooking, the originator of Chinese martial arts culture and the earliest master of sexuality in Chinese history.

    Will you watch it? If it was really 60 days a year at that time, then the problem came, the people of that dynasty only lived a few dozen years, if they were calculated according to 60 days a year, their dozens of years are equivalent to their current teens, isn't this nonsense? died in his teens and couldn't even get married, and then how many children did Peng Zu have in his life?

    You must know that it is impossible for a person to give birth to a child in dozens of days when she is pregnant, and the history I studied has not mentioned that there is a record that the dynasty is 60 days a year, this is pure expert nonsense, and the expert professor stinks Lao Jiu's sentence is really true.
