Brief introduction of Qinghe jade girl

Qinghe Jade Girl, the fairy of Taishang Laojun recorded in Taoist scriptures, is good at breathing the spell of Qinghe. Ge Hong's Biography of Immortals in the Eastern Jin Dynasty was published in Zhang Daoling. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Daoling learned that Shu people were simple and enlightened, and there were many famous mountains, so he led his disciples to Shu, where he lived in seclusion. After being taught by the old gentleman, he lived in seclusion, prepared medicine and cultivated foreign elixirs according to law. Three years later, the elixir of life was refined, but Zhang Ling didn't take the bait. He said to his disciples: the elixir is refined, and I will become a real person after eating it. But if you don't make a great contribution to the world, you must do something harmful to the country, help the people with merits, and then take Dan lightly and become an immortal in the Sanqing holy land, which is worthy of monasticism. Too old gentleman soon sent a jade girl to teach Zhang Ling how to breathe calmly. After 1000 days of practice, Zhang Ling was able to see his internal organs and gather external spirits, so he did three steps and nine traces and captured the essence and evil soul according to the instructions of the gang. In a word, the spell handed down by the Jade Maiden in Qinghe made her surrender to the Shu demon, paving the way for the spread of Tao. Taoist scriptures say that there is a ghost market in Qingcheng Mountain today, a stone tablet sworn by Zhang Tianshi, and stone carvings of the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon, which can be described as the historical testimony of Zhang Ling's coming out of the Qing Dynasty and her daughter's evil spirit. It is mentioned in the scripture "The Heart of Samadhi Emperor in the Eastern Yuan Dynasty in Thailand is clearly sealed" that Thai Chi Ziwei possessed demons to make ghosts keep evil ways and gather auspicious gods. The Chi Ziwei Auspicious Mantra, a scripture of Dali Dongjing Music, tells the story of Taoist female immortals, and also mentions Qinghe Jade Maiden.
