The Stone Slab of Gui She of Ming Dynasty (明朝龟蛇石碑)





In here, you all will be seeing 2 different type of Slabs dedicating to Xuan Tian Shang Di (玄天上帝) or Zhen Wu Da Di (真武大帝) in Tang (唐朝) & Ming Dynasty (明朝).

Both were found in China but the one founded in Shaanxi Province, Yao Zhou Area, Yao Wang Mountain (中國陝西耀縣藥王山) was much more rare & precious Slab which weight about 1 ton.

The one carved in Tang Dynasty was by High Priest Wu Dao Zi (唐朝高道吳道子), which the drawing was in the Real-form of a Tortise & Snake, whereas the one drawn in Ming Dynasty was in Chinese Calligraphy-form.

Due to misunderstanding & misconception, people tend to mistaken that the one in Ming Dynasty was drawn in Tang Dynasty and by Lv Dong Bin (唐朝呂巖).
