In a distant and mysterious place, there is a towering mountain surrounded by clouds and mist. This mountain seems to be covered by a layer of mysterious veil, full of unknowns and fantasies. On this mysterious mountain lives an old man with white hair but in high spirits.
The old man has been dedicated to collecting herbs all his life and is well aware of the effects of various herbs. Every morning, he will carry an old but sturdy bamboo basket on his back and hold a small hoe and step into the depths of the forest to look for those precious herbs. In the forest, all kinds of strange flowers and grasses grow competitively. With years of experience, the old man can accurately distinguish which herbs have special effects. He will carefully dig out the herbs with their roots and put them into the bamboo basket, as if treating one precious treasure after another.
Back at home, the old man will carefully select some herbs for decoction and consumption. He knows that different herbs combined together will have different effects, so he always carefully selects the types and proportions of herbs according to his own physical condition and needs. During the slow simmering process, the fragrance of herbs fills the entire room, making people feel a kind of tranquility and peace of mind.
The old man is kind-hearted and he is never stingy with his herbs. If the nearby villagers have illnesses, the old man will always share the herbs he made without hesitation. He will patiently explain the usage and effects of herbs to the villagers and guide them on how to take herbs correctly to treat diseases. With the help of the old man, the pains of many villagers have been relieved, and they are full of gratitude to the old man.
The old man's way of health preservation lies in making good use of the power of herbs to regulate the body and strengthen the physique. He believes that nature has endowed humans with rich herbal resources, and these herbs contain magical powers that can help people stay healthy. By taking herbs for a long time, he keeps his body in good condition all the time. His steps are steady, his eyes are bright, and his thinking is quick. He is completely unlike an old man.
One day, the old man was collecting herbs in the mountains as usual. The sun shines on the ground through the gaps between the leaves, forming patches of light. The old man was concentrating on looking for herbs. Suddenly, a mysterious light descended from the sky and enveloped the old man. The old man looked up in surprise and saw that the light was dazzling, as if it came from another world. Under the cover of the light, the old man felt an unprecedented tranquility and peace. Then, the light gradually disappeared, and the old man also disappeared.
When the villagers found that the old man was missing, they searched everywhere. However, they searched the entire mountain forest but still couldn't find the old man's trace. So, the villagers began to say that the old man had ascended to immortality. They believe that the old man has been kind all his life and is proficient in herbal medicine. He must have been favored by heaven and been led to the fairyland.
The old man's story has circulated among the villagers for a long, long time. He has become a legend, inspiring people to explore the mysteries of nature and make good use of the power of herbs to maintain health. And that mysterious mountain has become even more fascinating and awe-inspiring because of the old man's story.
