That must have been a misunderstanding by certain people.
That weapon in Chinese is usually called a shaozigun (flail staff). The weapon made by Zhao Kuangyin is called liangjiegun (two-section staff). Here is a picture of the weapon from the Encyclopedia. It's two equal halves, as if it had been broken right down the middle during an overhead block or something.
Nope, neither the 4 volume set nor the newer 2 volume set show either of these. Wish they did. Would love to see what they have to say about their history!
I'll send the pages to you...
Edit: If you google search Boox Viewer there are several Chinese websites where you can download it, if you haven't already.

In return for your kindness, I sent you what i have on Yuan Hou Quan and Lao Hong Quan. I don't read Chinese, but I am sure it just showes how to work out the set.
There is also a two man set based on general Qi Jiguangs postures.

Just to add PanLongGun is a common staff form in the village shaolin styles along with MeiQi (sometimes Qimei) gun.
I don't know if the form PanLongGun is a ZKY form or is simply refrencing the name. It is a name used in forms all over China.
What does LingLongquan translate into? Am I correct in thinking it is Exquisite Dragon Boxing?
To comment more, if LinLongQuan was only taught as loose techniques, then it stands to reason that Lao Hong Quan was probably loose techniques too. The form was created by the monks then.

I guess its a better presentation of the style

Not exactly. The characters have a different radical on the side, so it's not 'dragon'. 玲珑
Here's what they mean together: Linglong 玲珑
The encyclopedia says it was Abbot Fuju who arranged Zhao's Linglongquan into a set called Linglongquan. So... I assume that means Zhao's "Linglongquan" was not the name of a set, but just a group of loose techniques.

Hey Team,

This is close to the GuanDongQUan of RuanCunPai that I mentioned above. NanYuan.
Very different to the Xiyuan version done by Wushu Guan Above.
Now THAT was interesting!!! Do you know anything about this set? I see some similarities with Da Hong Quan, and a couple other things that remind me of Lao Hong Quan (tripple punch). This is the closest thing I have seen to date, to a stylist fit with the rest of the ZKY stuff.

Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

Here is the Guandongquan from the Ruan village Shaolin Nanyuan sect.

Honestly no one knows how old the style is.
However it was not made up by Zhang Dongshu and his Father. Wudang Da Hong Quan is only one 4 very closely related branches of Da Hong Quan practiced in the Peixian area. Each one of those branches comes from a totally different source, yet all of them have similar versions of the same core forms.
Here's all the video on Youtube I could find of the Quanxi Jia and Quandong Jia sets (most posted by our friends here):
