Ancient hermits all lived in Zhong Nanshan. What's the story?

First of all, most ancient hermits and immortals realized Tao in the Yellow River valley. Finding a nearby mountain to settle down and study is the lowest cost way. Walking from Chang 'an to Kunlun Mountain is not something that ordinary people can do, and Zhongnanshan has become the first choice. Moreover, the Qinling Mountains stretch for thousands of miles naturally, and are rich in materials. There is no shortage of water and food, and winter and summer are distinct, which is suitable for life. The trees planted in the field are long enough to eat for a year, and the hermit living here has no problem. For example, Wang Wei, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, lived in Lantian Mountain and "sat and watched Yun Qi".

The most important thing is that Zhong Nanshan is close to the capitals of Zhou Dynasty, Qin Dynasty, Han Dynasty, Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, and you can always go to Chang 'an and Luoyang to be an official and farmland. Most hermits are "born for better entry into the WTO", not to say that living in the mountains can make them immortal. Most people still hope that their wisdom can be recognized by society, and even if they are old, they can guide young people to success. Guiguzi is this type.

Also, the ancient Mount Zhongnan and the present Mount Zhongnan do not refer to the same mountain. The mythical Mount Zhongnan extends all the way to Kunlun Mountain in Central Asia, which seems to be the only way to become an immortal, with good reasons; Now that Zhong Nanshan is so close to Chang 'an, most hermits are just feeling.

Since ancient times, hermits have never hidden themselves. Superpowers and wisdom have always been used to benefit society. The highest realm of hermits is "online celebrity hermits". Everyone wants to see them, but no one can find them, such as Laozi, Guiguzi and Wang Zhongyang. And there are so many people who just live in the mountains that they can only say that they are city people who come to experience life, not hermits.
