As a result, celebrities choose to drink, play the piano, recite poems and take drugs ... as long as they feel comfortable. One is to avoid disaster, and the other is to cultivate immortality-after all, the world is not worth it, and maybe it will be comfortable after becoming an immortal!
As we all know, the wildest among them is the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest", who, while thinking about where to avoid disasters and live in seclusion, can't get used to the world. So they found a treasure trove of geomantic omen at the junction of Jiaozuo and Xinxiang, where mountains and rivers are beautiful and bamboo forests are densely covered. It is better to settle here.
However, just playing the piano and drinking in the band every day seems a bit boring and addictive, so they choose "taking drugs"-Samurai III.
It is said that this kind of "Five Stone Powder" was necessary for celebrities to cultivate immortality at that time: it was composed of five minerals: stalactite, purple Yingshi, Bai Shiying, red Yingshi and sulfur. Mix together and make into powder for administration. After eating it, people feel hot all over, their skin is red and white, and they are insane. Over time, these seven people began to get used to wide robes and big sleeves, and they were drunk all day. Liu Ling is more free and easy to wear clothes-"Heaven and earth are buildings, and rooms are pants." As the saying goes, a dose of Wushi powder after drinking will make you happy all your life.
However, this medicine has side effects. If you don't move after eating, the toxicity will attack. Symptoms are chest tightness, shortness of breath, numbness in limbs, dizziness ... In order to relieve symptoms, you must always "take two steps", which is called "dispersion". Taking two steps is to release the medicine gas, and the symptoms will be alleviated, so you have to take two steps if you are not sick.
With more walking, the process of releasing medicine gas seems to be immortal. As a result, these seven immortals are light and healthy, and they are more and more comfortable in the bamboo forest. Drinking, taking drugs, playing the piano and taking a walk probably means immortality, right?
Years later, Ruan Ji was drunk for sixty days and always cried. Ji Kang wrote "Breaking Up with Shan Juyuan", played a song "Guangling San" and went to prison calmly; After the "Change of Gao Pingling", Dan Tao lived in seclusion again; Liu Ling heard the envoy call him an official, so she tried her best to get drunk ... Taking medicine was just an illusion, but it could not relieve her depression. The once elegant land of Yangshan is as sad as the story of Han and Wei Dynasties: Xian Di, who was named Duke of Yang Shan, was lost in the deserted ancient road; After the Seven Sages, the Six Dynasties became relaxed and desolate. Five stones scattered into Taoist legends, and the noisy "making it clear" was gradually despised by the world.
Since then, although no one has taken Wushisan to cultivate immortality, they have left a word for health preservation-walking.
Although people nowadays don't eat any Dan medicine or walk to disperse it, there is something more turbid than medicine. Therefore, walking helps digestion, strengthens the body and calms the nerves, and it should also be regarded as a solution to the turbid gas in the heart.
From "taking medicine" to "taking a walk after dinner", although the forms are different, they probably think the same thing, right?
