    We often hope that our elders will live a long life, which also represents our most sincere wish for the older generation. Although the level of modern life and medical care has been very perfect, only a very small number of people can live to be more than 100 years old, but it is recorded in the documents of the Qing Dynasty that such a god man lived for more than 400 years. So who is this longest-lived old man?

    Today, Lao Wei will take you to see the truth or falsehood of this China's longest life record.

    Chen Jun (881-1324) was a native of Yongtai County, Fujian. In the county annals of Yongtai County, it is described that Chen Jun's body was severely curled in his later years, and the villagers could only carefully enshrine him in the vegetable basket in the ancestral hall as a god.

    After the founding of the People's Republic of China, according to the relevant departments from the Yongtai old county chronicles, it was learned that Chen Jun, the word Keming, was born in Tangquan Village, Yongjia Mountain District, Fujian Province (now Tangcheng Village, Wutong Township, Yongtai County), was born in the Tang Dynasty and Xin Chou year (AD 881), died in the Yuan Dynasty Taiding Jiazi year (AD 1324), at the age of 443.

    Because Chen Jun was helpful when he was young and had a good relationship with his neighbors, he was very respected by the villagers. In his later years, he was unable to support himself because of the severe decline of his physical functions, so the villagers took turns to provide for him. Later, as the old man grew older, his body gradually shrank, and his body became smaller and smaller, "like a child", and he could no longer move on the ground.

    So the neighbors made a large vegetable basket with hemp bamboo to hold the old man, and the person who supported him personally carried him into the hospital, so the neighbors called him "the vegetable basket man". After Chen Jun's death, the neighbors put his bones in the Chenghuang Temple as a memorial, and he was known as Little Pengzu.

    After Chen Jun's death, the villagers recorded his life on a stone tablet, which was preserved from the Yuan Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. It is already shocking that there are usually old people who live to be 100 years old, and if Chen Jun really lives to be 443 years old, then this will definitely be a miracle for mankind.

    However, Chen Jun lived to be 443 years old, which is only a record in the old county chronicles, and there is no one or other information to prove his age. If this issue is viewed from a scientific perspective, then Chen Jun's age is likely to be just a mistake in the county chronicle or someone deliberately wrote it to attract the attention of future generations. But whether Chen Jun's longevity is true or not, it gives us hope for the realization of human longevity, and in the future, human beings may only need to change their genes to easily live to 500 years old.

    Therefore, Chen Jun must be a real person, and he is also very long-lived, but he did not live to be 443 years old, it is just a "white lie" told by everyone's yearning for longevity and affirmation of Chen Jun's character.

    When it comes to who is the longest-lived person, many people will first think of Peng Zu, because the ancients said that he lived in the era of Emperor Yao, died at the end of the Shang Dynasty, and lived for more than 800 years. Of course, this is obviously impossible, and archaeologists have also explained accordingly, according to calculations, Peng Zu lived to be 130 years old.

    History, abbreviated as "history", refers to the systematic recording, research and interpretation of past events and activities in human society, as well as the behavior of these events. History exists objectively, no matter how the scholars write history, history exists in its own way and cannot be changed.
