STORY The dream of reaching
immortality was almost universal, especially in Asia. In ancient time,
supposedly there were two ways to realize this: the chemical process, we now
label it as alchemy, and the natural process which was what we nowadays might
call as a magical “green” way. The famous emperor Qin Shi-Huang/ Tan
Thuy-hoang (3rd Century BCE), the one who had ordered the
construction of the Great Wall at the cost of millions souls, followed a
chemical process by administering every day to himself a very small dose of
arsenic. After a few years, as a result, he really reached immortality. Not
on earth but under the earth, in an immense tomb kept secret for twenty two
centuries! Regarding the magical green
way, people believed in some place elsewhere it existed a specific one
thousand year old peach tree which took one hundred years to produce a unique
peach called Dao-bat-tu/The immortal peach. Who eats it will become
immortal. And legend has it. Once, many centuries ago, a man came to a royal
court offering a pretended Immortal Peach to the king. While the king has not yet
looked at the precious fruit, one of his ministers had swiftly grasped the
Immortal Peach and rapidly ate it. The king became furious and ordered to
execute the minister. Going in the knees he implores
the king to have mercy: Majesty! I am innocent. This
man pretended his peach was an immortal peach; I just ate it and now my life
is in trouble. So yours too, Majesty, had you eaten this peach. We should
punish those who preach untrue believes to our society and reward those who
dare risking their life for discovering the truth. The good king listened,
nodded and laughed nicely.
