"The Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing his abilities", "Zhang Guolao rode a donkey upside down", "It is said that there are immortals in the world, don't envy the immortals", especially on the Chinese Valentine's Day, everyone wants to "envy only the mandarin ducks" "Don't envy the immortals." The story of the Eight Immortals is widely circulated in China. They punish evil and promote good. There are stories in different stages of the world. For example, Zhang Guolao is the most legendary, and "A dog bites Lu Dongbin and does not recognize a good heart." People also like to talk about, "There are legends about why dogs raise their legs to pee", "The story of mud and sand catching their legs", etc. In fact, as soon as it starts, it will lead to countless topics, especially the legend of the Eight Immortals being influenced by the Queen Mother. When I was invited to attend the Peach Fair, I passed by Penglai in today's Shandong Province. It is said to be the passage to the fairyland. Some people believed it since the time of Qin Shihuang, and even sent a expedition headed by Xu Fu to find the elixir of immortality.

In fact, the process of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea is an opportunity to show off their magic weapons. They have boats made of gourds, sailing boats powered by wind, and power made of allegro. All the wisdom in navigation technology is revealed, making full use of nature and external forces to let them serve us. There are several very classic ones here:

We know that Tieguai Li is regarded as the eldest brother among the Eight Immortals. A super person, his magic weapon is a treasure gourd, which can not only be used as a boat to sail on the sea, but also rivals our submarines today, and also has a jet power source. Isn't it quite imaginative?

Han Zhongli’s fan reminds us of the technology of sailing using natural wind. Although it is ancient, it is full of wisdom. In different seasons, traveling with the monsoon is so pleasant. As for tourism, it requires more understanding of nature than today's budget travel. It is truly green tourism, without any pollution caused by power.

Lu Dongbin’s Chunyang Sword is as effective as today’s athletes surfing on the sea. What’s more, the power of this sword is that it can take a person’s head thousands of miles away, as long as the right spell is recited. , many children have this dream to own it when they are young.

Han Xiangzi’s flute has a magic sound, which can make the fish in the sea come over and form a floating bridge, just like the magpie bridge, for Lan Caihe to stroll on it. Is it today’s floating bridge on the water? Different approaches but similar results.

He Xiangu’s lotus flowers on the sea remind us of Guanyin’s lotus throne, which will not sink in the sea and is a sharp weapon for crossing the sea.

Lan Caihe's flower basket also has its own magical uses, Cao Guojiu's jade board, Zhang Guolao's donkey (also said to be a fish drum) are all sharp weapons when passing through the sea, as long as you can unfold them Imagine it, they can achieve it.

The story of the Eight Immortals is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is also a promotion of punishing evil and promoting good. People hope that such immortals will exist to wipe away all the injustices in the world, encourage people to do more good deeds, and serve as a warning to people " Warning quotes such as "If you do unrighteousness, you will be killed", "God is watching what you do", or "It's not that you don't report when the time has not come", although they may not really have such an effect, the starting point is very good.
