The Li Miaocheng 李妙成
Paul PengShare
Li Miaocheng was a native of Shaanxi during the Song Dynasty.
He built Jingming Nunnery by himself and practiced Taoism there. Every dawn and dusk, white cranes would hover around the nunnery. Even in his old age, his face retained the youthful glow of a child and showed no signs of aging. People thus called the place where he lived "Wuxian Zhuang" (Village of Enlightened Immortality).
