Are there really eight immortals in history?

As the head of the Eight Immortals, Lv Dongbin has always been an extraordinary figure, but his real prototype is just a prisoner named Lv Yan. When Lv Yan was in his twenties, he was in the spring breeze. He is a top student in high school, and getting married and having children is the second of the three great blessings in life. However, while enjoying the happiness of life, he accidentally offended the villain, and finally ended up with his property confiscated and his wife separated. Lv Yan was sent to Samoa, a bitter and cold place for exiled prisoners.

According to Ma Mo Chuan in Song Dynasty, the owner of Shaman Island in Song Shenzong era was Li Qing, who took pleasure in killing prisoners. This man only worked as a warden on Salmonella Island for two years, but he killed more than 700 prisoners, all because the resources on Salmonella Island only allowed 300 prisoners to live on the island.

Faced with such a survival rate, Yan Lu had to plan to "escape from prison", but Salmonella Island is surrounded by the sea, so it is impossible to escape from the island alone. After a long period of observation, he finally selected six accomplices who escaped from prison.

Prison break partner

Han Zhongli, prototype: once a general, was sent because of the failure of the crusade against Liao.

Cao Guojiu, the brother-in-law of the prototype Cao:, was involved in prison because of the fall of Queen Cao.

Lan Caihe, prototype Xu Jian: Singing Zaju in Goulan, was assigned to Salmon Island because of performance mistakes.

Zhang: He is crazy. He claimed to have been born in the era of Dayu. He doesn't know his name and age. Later, he was arrested by the government

Han Xiangzi: The descendant of Han Yu, a great writer, was also assigned to Salmon Island for offending people.

It is said that there is a gathering fairy cave on Shaman Island, where the Eight Immortals hold a meeting to discuss, and Lv Yan and others hide here to discuss plans to escape from prison. He Xiangu, the Eight Immortals, stumbled upon their secret and offered to join them.

Prison break together

So, one night, these prisoners began to escape across the ocean, only 20 miles from Salmonella Island to Mount Ya Dan in Penglai. According to their level, they began to cross the sea with floating objects such as wooden pots, gourds and wood when it was calm. This is a far cry from the legendary Eight Immortals who are laughing and calm. When they reached the foot of Ya Dan Mountain exhausted, they were all hideous and embarrassed.
