500        |a The Dragon and Tiger mountains are the site of a famous Daoist scenic spot located in Guixi county north-east of Jiangxi province, close to Fujian province. It is one of the places where the founder of magical or religious Daoism Zhang Daoling (35-156 AD) spent some time cultivating his Daoist alchemist principles. Zhang Daoling is credited with having perfected the pill of immortality. At the age of sixty upon swallowing it he is said to have become young again, his face being as fresh and rosy as that of a young boy. He worked as a healer to finance his expensive alchemical experiments and attracted a great number of followers. He cured the sick by reciting magical formulae and by serving them sacred water. His fee for such treatment consisted of five pecks of rice, so that the school founded by him also came to be known as Five- Pecks-of-Rice Daoism. Since the reign of emperor Taiwu (424-452 AD) his followers venerated him as a celestial master (tianshi), a title borne by his descendants to this day. The descendants established their headquarters on the Dragon and Tiger mountains, and have since been the undisputed heads of the Daoist religion, in a similar role to that of the Pope. Zhang Daoling is pictured as an old, bearded man riding a tiger. The charm is definitely supposed to protect the owner from illness and evil spirits, and to increase the hope of being able to live a long and healthy life.
