I remember a book I loaned away a long time back about Yi Jin Ching and Shi Choi Ching Chi Gung - roughly translated to Deep Bone and Brain Cleansing Chi Gung. It had a photograph of a master in the 1930's who was 250 or so years old. He died shortly thereafter. (Funny thing is the guy looked every day of it.) The master who wrote the premise for the book was a Chinese general who befriended the backwoods treasure of a fellow, and his arts. He spent some time in the archives and interviewing around the older villages where this guy claimed to have lived through childhood experiences and confirmed that enough of his accounting was correct to publish.
There were some recipes in the back, herbal concoctions that a Chinese herbalist here would fill for me from her apothacary. I never bothered to get a translation and now I have lost the book, I do not know how to get more.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

(The guy doesn't look
that bad for being 250 years old.}
