The Yang Xiangong 杨仙公

Paul Peng
Yang Xiangong was a Taoist priest who lived in the Ziqi area (now part of Shandong Province) during the Five Dynasties period.
As recorded in Xu Wenxian Tongkao (Continuation of the Comprehensive Examination of Literature and History), Yang Xiangong possessed extraordinary abilities; there was a legend that he could play with tigers and leopards.

In the Changxing era of the Later Tang Dynasty (930-933), he retreated to live in seclusion on Mount Emei.
