The most famous #Peach story: Dongfang Shuo secretly ate three peaches that had been offered to Emperor Wu of Han, and lived for 3,000 gapja as a result. One gapja is 60 years, so 3,000 gapja is 180,000 years - roughly the era the Paleolithic, right around when Homo sapiens first appeared in history. Anyway, that's the story.
