De Hui Tang — Taoist Lineage & Feng Shui Heritage
Inheriting the thousand-year Zhengyi Dao lineage of Longhu Mountain and the authentic Yang Gong Feng Shui tradition
Longhu Mountain Zhengyi Dao Lineage
Tianshi Dao (Celestial Master Dao), also known as Zhengyi Dao (Way of Orthodox Unity), was founded by Zhang Daoling (34–156 AD) during the Eastern Han Dynasty at Heming Mountain in Sichuan. It is one of the two earliest schools of Daoism and the predecessor of today's Longhu Mountain Zhengyi sect.
Zhang Daoling is revered as the 'Celestial Master' (Zu Tianshi), his son Zhang Heng as the 'Successor Master' (Si Shi), and his grandson Zhang Lu as the 'Lineage Master' (Xi Shi). Together they are known as the 'Three Masters' (San Zhang), establishing the hereditary lineage of the Celestial Masters.
During the Eastern Han period, Zhang Daoling is said to have refined elixirs at Longhu Mountain (Dragon-Tiger Mountain) in present-day Yingtan, Jiangxi Province. Legend has it that 'when the elixir was completed, dragons and tigers appeared,' giving the mountain its name. His great-grandson Zhang Sheng later settled here and established the Si Han Celestial Master Mansion (Sihan Tianshi Fu), which became the hereditary seat of the Celestial Masters for generations.
The Three Masters (San Zhang)
Zhang Daoling (Celestial Master), Zhang Heng (Successor Master), and Zhang Lu (Lineage Master) — the founding trio of the Tianshi Dao tradition.
Longhu Mountain — Sacred Daoist Site
Located in Yingtan City, Jiangxi Province, China. Legend says Zhang Daoling refined elixirs here and 'dragons and tigers appeared,' naming the mountain. The Si Han Celestial Master Mansion has been the hereditary seat for over 1,800 years.
63 Generations of Celestial Masters
The Celestial Master lineage passed down through 63 generations via the Yangping Zhi Du Gong Seal and the Celestial Sword as sacred emblems of succession. The Longhu Mountain Si Han Celestial Master Mansion declared in 2009 that the hereditary title ended with the 63rd generation.
Yang Gong Feng Shui — The Form School Heritage
Yang Yunsong (834–900 AD), courtesy name Shumao, art name Yunsong, was a renowned Tang Dynasty feng shui grandmaster. He served as Imperial Master under Emperor Xizong of Tang, holding the rank of Grand Master of Splendid Happiness (Jin Zi Guang Lu Da Fu) and overseeing astronomical and geographical affairs. He is widely revered as 'Yang Jiupin' (Yang the Poverty-Reliever) for using his feng shui knowledge to help ordinary people.
During the Huang Chao Rebellion, Yang Yunsong fled the capital and traveled south with his disciples. He eventually settled in Sanliao Village, Xingguo County, Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, where he integrated into the Hakka community and established the Form School (Xing Shi Pai) of feng shui — one of the two major schools of Chinese geomancy.
Yang Yunsong's feng shui system emphasizes observing the natural landscape — mountains, water courses, and terrain forms — to determine auspicious locations for dwellings and burials. His teachings were passed down through his disciples and became the foundation of what is now known as Yang Gong Feng Shui, widely practiced across southern China and Southeast Asia.

Sanliao Village — The Birthplace of Yang Gong Feng Shui
Sanliao Village in Xingguo County, Ganzhou, Jiangxi is known as 'China's No. 1 Feng Shui Culture Village.' For over a thousand years, the descendants of Yang Yunsong's disciples have preserved and developed the Yang Gong feng shui tradition here. The saying goes: 'World feng shui looks to China, Chinese feng shui looks to Sanliao.'
