Why is Lianshan a medical book rather than a divination book?

The content of the ancient "Lianshan Yi" can be roughly summarized into three aspects: First, with various animals as symbols and pictures and schematic symbols as the main forms of expression, the sun, moon, stars, twenty-eight nights and other astronomical phenomena and their calendar settings are recorded.

Second, based on the astronomical calendar, the laws and principles of yin and yang, conflict between cadres and branches, mutual punishment and combination are deduced in the Romance. The third is to predict and guide various activities according to these principles, including travel, business, production, hunting, marriage and so on.

The contents in Lian Shan Yi have infiltrated into the ancient medical literature, but they may also escape into the miscellaneous studies of Feng Shui. People use it to view mountains and discuss water, choose houses and graves, and gradually evolve some theories about mountains and white bones, caves in the earth, hidden wind and water, and tigers sitting in dragons and dragons.
