The Luo Wenyou 罗文佑
Paul PengShare
Luo Wenyou was a native of Yuzhang (present-day Nanchang) during the Western Jin Dynasty.
During the Taikang period (280-289), Wenyou collected medicinal herbs and practiced alchemy on Huangshan Mountain. Later, he successfully refined the elixir and attained immortality, ascending to heaven.

Records of She County states that the elixir formulas were engraved on the Baisha Stele, and the local people revered him as "Chenkan Tianzun" (the Heavenly Venerable of Chenkan).
