The life of the sage Guiguzi, the originator of military strategists.

Just yesterday, a TV series "Seeking Fairy Guiguzi", which was created after ten years' efforts, started in Xiangshan Film and Television City. I am a little excited about this, and I have searched a lot of information about Guiguzi on the Internet. Being alone is better than being happy with others. I'm here to dedicate the carefully arranged materials to you, so that you can have an understanding of this history before watching TV series.

Before digging out this history, I thought Guiguzi was just an ordinary teacher of Sun Bin, the founder of Sun Bin Sun Tzu's Art of War. Today, it has been proved that Guiguzi is still a mysterious legend in history. Guiguzi, whose real name is Wang Xu, also known as Wang Chan, was a patriot in the Warring States Period. He often goes to Yunmeng Mountain to collect herbs and cultivate monasteries. Because of his seclusion in Qingxi Ghost Valley, people call Wang Xu Mr. Ghost Valley. Although Guiguzi is a famous old man, he is actually a famous thinker, strategist, strategist, educator and the originator of military strategists. He is known as a strange man through the ages. He is good at keeping a healthy body, thinking psychologically, grasping the trend of combining rigidity with softness, knowing the technique of vertical and horizontal coitus and having unique wisdom. Guiguzi's disciples are strategists Sun Bin and Pang Juan, strategists Su Qin and Yi Cheung.

You deserve to say so many compliments. Among them, strategists are mentioned. Let me briefly introduce: Strategists and strategists, History of Han Literature and Art is listed as one of the "Nine Streams". Later, people who engage in political activities through argument were called "strategists". During the Warring States period, a group of political advisers lobbied the monarchs of various countries to advocate "union" and "Lian Heng" by examining the current situation and stating their interests, which had a certain influence on the situation at that time. Their representatives are Su Qin and Zhang Yi. Su Qin advocated uniting Lian Heng and uniting the six eastern countries to resist Qin. Zhang Yi advocated Lian Heng, saying that the six countries should take things as Qin. At that time, counselors generally belonged to Zonghe Lian Heng School.

Besides, Guiguzi is called the originator of military strategists for a reason. During the Warring States period, there were two outstanding disciples, Su Qin and Zhang Yi (see The Warring States Policy). In addition, Sun Bin and Pang Juan are also disciples (see The Romance of Sun Pang). Guiguzi is not only a politician's six tricks and three strategies, but also a diplomat's vertical and horizontal skills. He also has the ancestral mantle of yin and yang, and the quack of the prophet. Therefore, the world calls Guiguzi a wizard and a generalist. His works, including Guiguzi, also known as "The Strategy of Integration" and "Yin Fu Qi Fa", describe the methods of practicing qi and nourishing the mind.

Taoism believes that Mr. Guiguzi is a "true fairy in ancient times", who lived in the world for more than 100 years and then disappeared into the vast sea of people. However, it is not expensive. His book Guiguzi is completely preserved in Taoist classic Daozang. There is also a folk legend that Guiguzi is the ancestor of numerologists. In Taoism, Guiguzi is honored as Du Xuanxian Factory. Therefore, it is called Grandfather, which is based on the divination of Guiguzi, including wandering soul divination and resurrection divination, and both of them are devoted to communicating with ghosts to verify whether things will develop correctly in the future.

Let's take a look at the relevant historical records of Guiguzi first.

It is said that there is a piece of land in Zhouzhi Yangcheng called Ghost Valley. The mountains are deep and dense, unpredictable, and seem to be inhabited by non-people, so it is the Valley of Clouds and Ghosts. One of them is a hermit, but his name is Guiguzi. According to legend, his surname is Wang, a native. In Yunmeng Mountain, he collected herbs and built temples with Mo Zhai, a poet of the Song Dynasty ... He is knowledgeable, but no one can compare with him. Those studies: first, mathematics, the latitude of the sun and stars, in its palm, occupy the past, look at it, everything is true; Second, military science, six towers and three strategies, endless changes, deployment and soldiers, ghosts and gods unpredictable; Third, learn from the text, remember and listen more, judge the situation rationally, and argue with words, and do everything possible; On the fourth day, I was born, cultivated my true temperament, delayed my illness, ate differently, and soared. -History of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty

Monk believes in Confucianism, Zhuang Zhou talks about soaring, teaches frugality and preciseness, teaches the name as a symbol, the wild old man runs the country well, the son helps the government in astronomy, Shen Shang talks with a knife and saw, the ghost valley kisses instead of kisses, the stone corner is always good at miscellaneous techniques, and the Qing history music is composed in the market. Researcher Meng Xun said that he was well-founded and gentle; Management is the article, and practice is the core; Lieyukou's books are full of great anger and novelty; Zou Zizhi said that his heart is extravagant and his words are strong; Mo Zhai follows the nest, with obvious meaning and language quality; Shi Jiao is dazzling, capable and spontaneous; The crown is constant, and it is urgent to make deep words; The ghost valley is vast, and every link has meaning. Wen Zi is good at this; Yin Wenxin kept his promise and got what he wanted. -"Wen Xin Diao Long Zhuzi"

Compared with Guiguzi's records, it is not quite right, but his influence is still relatively deep. Guiguzi's main works are Guiguzi and Yin Fu Qi Jue. Guiguzi focuses on the tactics and skills of talking and debating, while Yin Fu Qi Jue in Benjing focuses on nourishing the heart and keeping the spirit to cultivate one's morality.

The first three chapters of Yin Fu's seven techniques in this classic explain how to enrich the will and cultivate the spirit. The last four chapters discuss how to apply the inner spirit to the external world and how to deal with external things with the inner mind. Gui Guzi is the originator of strategists, and Su Qin and Zhang Yi are his two most outstanding disciples (see The Warring States Policy). In addition, Sun Bin and Pang Juan are also disciples (see The Romance of Sun Pang). What strategists advocate is the skill of tactics and argument, and its guiding ideology is quite different from the benevolence and morality advocated by Confucianism. So for a long time, scholars have little praise for Guiguzi, but scoffed at it. In fact, the benefits of diplomatic tactics are related to the rise and fall of national security; Whether the strategy of business negotiation and competition is appropriate or not is related to the success or failure of the economy. Even in daily life, speaking skills are related to whether a person is decent or not. At that time, Su Qin, with his brilliant words, united the six countries, matched each other and led them 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. Sun Tzu's art of war focuses on overall strategy, while Guiguzi focuses on specific skills. The two can be said to complement each other.

Isn't it a bit boring just to look at historical materials? Don't worry, let's take a look at the myths and legends of Guiguzi.

Son of dragon girl

Legend has it that Guiguzi is the son of village people Qinglong and Donghai Dragon Girl. Although Qinglong and Longnv were crushed to death by the Dragon King of the East China Sea in Yunmeng Mountain and turned into mountains and Longquan, their souls did not leave, but continued to exist as mortal bodies for the benefit of future generations.

Cave fairy

Legend has it that Guiguzi is a true fairy in Taoist cave, ranking thirteenth on the left side of the fourth floor. Be honored as a mysterious real person, also known as a mysterious child.

The abode of fairies and immortals is a cave, also known as Xanadu. Legend has it that there are ten holes, thirty-six holes and seventy-two blessed places. There is a book in Taoist Scriptures that is devoted to Elysium, called Reading the Famous Mountains in Elysium. Dong Xiao Palace in Yuhang County, Zhejiang Province is one of the 72 blessed places in the 36 small caves, and it is called "Dida Cave". In Yuan Dynasty, Deng Mu owned six volumes of Cave Cloud Record, which recorded the scenic spots of the palace.

A true fairy is also called a real person, and it can only be called a real person after becoming a fairy. Zhuangzi called Laojun "Guang Zhenren"; Tang Xuanzong called Zhuangzi "South China Reality", Wen Zi "Xuan Tong Reality", Liezi "Xu Chong Reality" and Sang Zi "Xu Dong Reality". Zhang Borui, a Taoist priest in the Song Dynasty, was called "a real person"; Yuan Taizu named Qiu Chuji "Changchun Real Person".

Xuanwei's real Guiguzi lived in Guiguzi's cave, and went to the cave for the sake of flowers. And Su, Zhang, Sun, Pang and other disciples are all unfinished. Guiguzi had to pay attention to his disciples in the dark and help the good and suppress the evil from time to time.

According to legend, Guiguzi has the method of invisible hiding and mixing heaven and earth; Will be reborn, beyond life and death; Sow beans for soldiers and mow grass for horses; Love and affection, vertical and horizontal.

The origin of "Ghost Valley Well"

Guiguzi lived in seclusion in Yunmeng Mountain in his later years, one gathering disciples to give lectures, and the other honoring his mother. One day, Wang Xiarui called Guiguzi to her side and said earnestly, "My mother has suffered a lot for you. Now my temples are gray and I am dying. My mother wants nothing more. After I die, I only ask you to bury me in Kowloon. " If you miss your mother, just dig a well next to my grave, from which you can see her figure. "I just finished and died.

Guiguzi was heartbroken and buried her mother in the venue in Kowloon with tears in her eyes. In order to see my dear mother as soon as possible, he led his disciples to dig a well beside her grave. It took 998 1 day to dig this well. Sure enough, his mother's face was reflected in the well water. See my mother in the morning and evening, my mother's temples are like frost. From then on, Guiguzi ran to the well day and night to pay tribute to his mother's body. After a long time, Guiguzi discovered another mystery of this well. According to the fluctuation of water level in the well, we can gain insight into the change of weather. It is rainy when the well water rises, and it will be sunny when the well water falls, so this well is also called "hole in the well".

This well was dug by Guiguzi in memory of his mother, so it is called Guiguzi well.

Night knowledge and wordless gobbledygook

Legend has it that when Guiguzi's master ascended to heaven and became immortal, he left a roll of bamboo slips with the word "heavenly book" written on it. When I opened it, there was not a word from beginning to end, and Guiguzi was puzzled for a moment. I have lived alone with Master for nine years, and my feelings are getting deeper and deeper. Today, Master suddenly left, feeling that he had nothing to lose, and his heart was empty, so he got into his cave and fell asleep. But how can I sleep, tossing and turning, always thinking about the bamboo slip without words, until dark, the bamboo slip is still rolled, rolled, rolled, and inexplicable. He simply climbed up, lit the torch of Song Ming, and jumped up by the light. Bamboo slips are shining with golden light, and tadpoles' lines are shining. Guiguzi sighed: "Is this the' golden book' passed down from generation to generation?"

The information compiled is not perfect, so let's stop here today. I believe everyone has a certain understanding of guiguzi. When the TV series starts, you can introduce the legendary Guiguzi to your friends and show off your profound knowledge.
