Guiguzi is a fairy? Or mortal? Does he really exist in history?

There is such a strange man in the history of China. No one knows his name, his life and death, his coming and going. He is even more mysterious than Lao Zi. Everything about him is a mystery. For more than 2,000 years, military strategists respected him as a saint, strategists respected him as an ancestor, fortune tellers respected him as a granddaddy, strategists respected him as a saint, scientists respected him as a mentor, and legalists respected him as a master and a famous scholar.

But here's the problem. There are only two references to Guiguzi in historical records, and then it disappeared. Everything about Guiguzi comes from some folklore and fairy tales. There are two legends about Guiguzi's life. It is said that a long time ago, there was a family named Zhao and a family named Zhou. They are neighbors, the Zhao family is a businessman and the Zhou family is a farmer. The two families are very close. Later, Zhao's business went bankrupt, and the Zhou family gave generously. To show his gratitude, Zhao promised to betroth his daughter to the Zhou family. Soon after, Zhou's parents died one after another, and his family's fortune fell. As a businessman, the Zhao family broke the marriage and contract.

These two different versions of folklore speculate on Guiguzi's life experience, which shows that Guiguzi has an extraordinary position in the hearts of ordinary people. The legend of Guiguzi is not only his life story, but also his life story. It is said that the Warring States at that time was just a game of chess played by him. In order to unify the world, Guiguzi taught several disciples to go down the mountain one after another. These disciples of his were nobody before they entered the mountain, and they all shone brilliantly after they came out. Outstanding figures of military strategists such as Sun Bin and Pang Juan, and outstanding figures of military strategists such as Su Qin and Zhang Yi, were all at one time.

Pang Juan played for Wei, which became a military power, and Sun Bin played for Qi, which regained hegemony. The six countries of the Soviet Union had close relations and joined hands to fight against Qin, which made Qin afraid to leave Hangu Pass for more than ten years. Zhang Yi's golden tongue lobbied all countries and served as the prime minister of Qin twice. Su Qin and Zhang Yi, Taishi Gong Sima Qian, once solemnly wrote in Historical Records: "These two people are really dangerous." Anger makes princes fear, and peace makes the world rest.

In addition to the above four people, there is one of the most legendary, that is Xu Fu. Qin Shihuang sent Xu Fu to the sea to look for the elixir of life, and Guiguzi told him. Legend has it that Qin Shihuang asked Guiguzi for fairy grass: "There is fairy grass on China, like a seedling. When people die, this grass will live. " During the reign of Qin Shihuang, many people died in the big garden in vain. A bird bit the grass and fell to the ground to cover it. The dead man sat up. The first emperor asked Mr. Guigu, the northern country, that the fairy grass grows in Yu Yingzhou, and the cloud in the East China Sea gives birth to Qiongtian. "

Qin Shihuang listened to Mr. Guigu's words and sent Xu Fu to beg for jade, vegetables and gold plates, as well as an inch of arrowhead. Later, Xu Fudong crossed the sea to Japan. It is said that he became the first emperor of Japan-Emperor Jimmu. Nowadays, Japanese people worship in temples all over the country, and many Japanese even publicly claim that they are descendants of Xu Fu, leaving the genealogy of the Xu family as evidence.

Su Qin, with his golden words, united the six countries, matched each other, and led the six countries against Qin. With her strategy and lobbying skills, Zhang Yi disintegrated the six countries and made immortal contributions to the State of Qin. The so-called "wisdom is unknown to people, but can be used by people." The essence of Guiguzi is that invisibility is better than indisputable white.

Guiguzi is a summary of strategists' lobbying experience, and its value is self-evident. There is a saying in Sui Shu: "Anyone who is a strategist or strategist should argue clearly and speak well in order to get through." Although there was prejudice and discrimination against the study of vertical and horizontal in past dynasties, it cannot be denied its value. Even those ostensibly banned and destroyed are sometimes wise in private and can't put it down.
