The most ingenious in history, he said: today at noon, it is my death, and the result is shocking.

Now, if someone says that he is unpredictable and can even predict the future and destiny of others, he will definitely be regarded as a mental derangement or a big fool. There were many psychic calculations in ancient China, such as Zhuge Liang and Yuan Tiangang, whose deeds have been worshipped so far. Generally speaking, ancient divination can only tell others' fortune, but it may not be accurate for one's own destiny, which is the same as the truth that "the imperial doctor can't cure himself."

However, there are always exceptions. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was an ox man who was proficient in astronomy, the Book of Changes and Feng Shui, and was good at predicting prophets and many strange magic tricks. Every time I show feng shui to others and predict the future, I have never made any mistakes, which makes people quite awe of him. Not only that, he also used his extraordinary ability to accurately calculate his own date of death. Who is this man?

Guo Pu, from Hedong (present-day Shanxi), is a well-known person with a good literary background, and his ci is the highest in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. But because he is more famous for divination, his literary achievements are not so conspicuous. At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, even if Guo Pu left his hometown, there would be war, so he went to other places to avoid chaos. Guo Pu is a dutiful son, but after his mother died, he did something that was spurned by his relatives and friends.

After Guo Pu's mother died, others thought that he was proficient in Feng Shui and would find a treasure for his mother. Guo Pu ignored the opposition and buried his mother by the river. It is generally known that once the river rises, the cemetery will be flooded or even washed away by the river, and the river is not suitable for burial at all. When relatives and friends heard that Guo Pu buried his mother by the river, they all called him unfilial and even refused to associate with Guo Pu.

Faced with this situation, Guo Pu explained to his relatives: "Although it is a river now, according to my calculation, this place will definitely be a fertile field in the future. And according to the terrain here, my mother's cemetery will be surrounded by a treasure trove of feng shui. " Even so, others still can't forgive him, thinking that he is excusing himself from being unfilial.

A few years later, due to the diversion of the river, Okawa really became fertile land at that time, especially where Guo Pu's mother's grave was located. Anyone who knows a little about Feng Shui can see that this is a land with excellent Feng Shui. From then on, Guo Pu became more famous, and many court officials looked for him to see Feng Shui and calculate his future.

As the saying goes, "One tree attracts the wind", with the increase of Guo Pu's fame, it has also brought a lot of troubles to himself. At that time, Wang Dun, the general of Jingzhou, was already up to no good, recruiting soldiers everywhere and preparing to arise and rebel. I heard that Guo Pu was unpredictable, so I sent someone to "invite" him to the mansion and let Shanhaijing summarized choose a "good day" suitable for rebellion. Guo Pu fingers a calculate, and then directly to Wang Dun said "nothing" two words. In other words, no matter when Wang Dun rebelled, it would not succeed.

Wang Dun, who was eager to rebel, was angry at Guo Pu's words, but he suppressed his inner anger and asked Guo Pu with a smile: "If I have to do it, how long can I live?" Guo Pu replied, "If anything happens in Gong Ming, it will be a disaster. If you live in Wuchang, your life is unpredictable. " Wang Dun thought Guo Pu was bluffing, so he said to him, "Since you are so good at calculating, can you work out when you will die?" Guo Pu laughed loudly and said, "I'm going to die at noon today."

Wang Dun almost went crazy, and immediately had Guo Pu pulled out and beheaded. Guo Pu, a generation of wizards, was only 48 years old when he was killed. Although Guo Pu has been dead for nearly two thousand years, he is known as the "originator of geomantic omen", leaving many far-reaching works, such as "Buried Classics". In addition, he also annotated Zhouyi, Shan Hai Jing, Mu Chuan, Dialect and Chu Ci.
