<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="01" data-track="2" > Magpie Annunciation Guo Pusheng Talent prodigy appears</h1>
On the morning of Guo Pu's birth, a group of magpies flew from all directions to announce the good news at the door of Guo's house. For a time, the sun was shining, squeaking and dancing, and the festive doorway. It was as if to welcome the birth of this legendary figure.
Guo Pu is the third oldest in the family, and his deeds are quite legendary. When he was five years old, his father invited Pu to a highly learned Mr. Enlightenment, and the general family private school for the education of young children is from counting, literacy, handwriting, and initial writing, from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, step by step. However, Guo Pu is not an ordinary child, and those who have been taught once do not need to repeat the teaching, never forget, and have a superb memory. However, in half a year, Mr. Private School dismissed himself by teaching all his knowledge to Pu, and even several gentlemen were embarrassed to hire him, and resigned within half a month. They all said: "Guo Pu is a prodigy, a talented wizard, and ordinary gentlemen can't teach him." "He was busy reading and writing every day, leaving school, entering a library, reading books, studying ancient books, and in his youth he became famous in the field of shock learning. The Book of Jin says that Guo Pu was "erudite and talented", "good at ancient chinese characters", and "wonderful in yin and yang, and in the calendar".

Guo Pu was proficient in feng shui and the art of divination, and was revered by later generations as the ancestor of feng shui, which has to start from an experience in his youth. Legend has it that during the Yongjia period of the Western Jin Dynasty, one day, Guo Pu's mother was ready to make two clothes, so she asked Guo Pu to go to the town market to pull a few feet of green cloth, but on the way home, there was a river embankment breach, the river water flooded into the low field, flooding the country road, Guo Pu had to return to the embankment, detoured, until the evening, still found the way home. In the midst of his sorrow, an old man suddenly appeared in front of Guo Pu, the old man with a green face and a wide hat on the top, two cylindrical tentacles at the tip of the hat, and his appearance was very strange. Guo Pu was uncertain, only to see the old man with the green face take out a roll of things from his arms, give it to Guo Pu, turn around and jump, turn into a giant green snail, the size of a bull's head, jump into the river, splash a few feet of waves, and disappear. At that time, Guo Pu vaguely heard the words of the old man: "This book is the crystallization of my hundred years of cultivation, and it is a pity to destroy it.
As the river receded, Guo Pu hurried home. When I entered the house, it turned out to be a "Book in the Green Sac". This book consists of nine volumes, containing magical arts such as the Five Elements, Astronomy, and Divination, and those who are familiar with it can realize the mysteries of eliminating disasters and understanding the underworld. Guo Pu immersed himself in research and wrote what he had learned into the "Burial Classic", which thoroughly defined the concept of feng shui, "the qi is scattered by the wind, and the boundary water is stopped", although the two sentences are short, but they are exquisite and wonderful, and have become the only classic of feng shui in later generations.
Guo Pu had a protégé Zhao Zai, seeing that Guo Pu had such a high achievement, so he had a bad thought, and quietly stole the "Book in the Green Bag" at night, but was found, Guo Pu drew a charm, read a few words, and as a result, a fire came down from the sky and burned the book, and Zhao Zai did not have time to see a word in the book.
In the last year of the Western Jin Dynasty, the Xiongnu nobleman Liu Yuan and shi le joined forces against the Jin, and the Western Jin officers and soldiers stationed in the Hedong region fled across the Yellow River. Guo Yao fled with his wife and the army. Guo Pu, who was studying literature, moved to Tangwang Mountain with his wife and children to take refuge in the chaos of the war, because the bureaucratic landlords of the Western Jin Dynasty occupied the land without a limit, and the area around Tangwangshan also belonged to the jurisdiction of the Guo Yao family. In order to support his family, in addition to researching and learning, Guo Pu also guided his family to plant crops, he got up early and went dark, opened up the wasteland to plant land, planted in spring and autumn, and used the fruits of his labor to feed the whole family. Legend has it that one day, Guo Pu went up to Tangwang Mountain to cut firewood, found that the mountainside was shining with gold, and looked closely at a large cave. He leaned his shoulders against the outside of the cave and walked through the cave into a spacious and bright compound with a large stone table next to which two old men played chess. He stood by and watched, a game of chess was not finished, and he saw with his own eyes the real situation of several peach trees in the courtyard, flowers blossoming and falling, small peaches growing, and ripe leaves falling. He felt very magical, he asked the second old, the second old smiled and did not answer, there was a book boy picked a plate of peaches, told the second old to eat, by the way handed Guo Pu a plate of peaches, Guo Pu ate sweet and delicious, as if he had walked into heaven and entered the fairyland. The second elder then said to him: "The country is in difficulty, you should not shrink back and escape at this time, and it is what you should do to come forward to save the country." "After walking out of the cave, I found that the flat shoulder was half-cut and decayed. When he returned home, his family asked, "Three years have passed, where have you gone?" After Guo Pu finished talking about what he had seen and heard, he felt that his feet were floating, and he flew into the sky in the clouds. After that, people called the big cave "Guo Pu kiln".
After listening to Erxian's words, Guo Pu began to move south. Crossing the Yellow River and crossing the Yangtze River in Pinglu County, Xuancheng Taishou Yinyou led Guo Pu to join the army, and Danyang Taishou Wang guided Guo Pu as his staff. The Eastern Jin Dynasty was established, Sima Rui called him emperor of Jinyuan, and Guo Pu was made a writer, and in 322 AD, he was promoted to Shangshulang. Guo Pu had a straight personality, was patriotic and loyal to the king, and was not accustomed to the corrupt behavior of feudal rule blindly seeking pleasure and plundering the people's wealth; he was worried about the country and the people, repeatedly advised him, called on emperor Jin Yuan to put state affairs first, was considerate of the people, proposed to reform the government, demanded "amnesty for the world" to recover lost land, and relieved the people of suffering.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" data-track="12" > Wang Dun plotted against Guo Pu and refused To magpies to report guo pu's worries</h1>
On the fourteenth day of the ninth lunar month of the second year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Emperor Taining (324 AD), Wang Dun, who had long been rebellious, seized military power and stationed in Jingzhou, and happened to meet Guo Pu traveling here and trying to win Guo Pu over. However, Guo Pu was a loyal minister, and he bitterly advised Wang Dun: "To protect the country, the general must put the interests of the country first, and the internal contradictions are even greater than the people's suffering." Guo Pu asked Wang Dun to change from evil to righteousness, but Wang Dun did not think so, ostensibly calling Guo Pu a brother and a brother, and also asked Guo Pu to be a fierce man for him. Guo Puyizheng said: "You will definitely not succeed in doing this." When Wang Dun heard Guo Pu report the evil gua, he asked, "If you make another prediction, see what my life expectancy is?" Guo Pu replied, "If you raise an army, you will die soon, and if you strike back to Wuchang, your life expectancy will be immeasurable." Wang Dun was furious when he heard this: "Do you know how long your life span is?" Guo Pu knew that he was doomed, so he replied, "I'm going to die at noon today." Wang Dun was ashamed and angry, and immediately arrested Guo Pu and prepared to execute him in Nangang, Jingzhou. On the way to the execution site, Guo Pu said to the escorts, "I will die between two cypress trees." When we got there, there were two cypress trees side by side, and the gap between the cypress trees was just one person wide, and Guo Pu said, "There is a magpie nest on every cypress tree." The executioner looked up but didn't see it, so someone climbed up the tree and sure enough, he found a magpie nest among the leaves. Wang Dun was surprised, and the incident was also coincidental, the group of magpies was full of trees, quiet and silent, tears like rain, and sorrow. At noon, the sun star watched. The knife and axe hand had just raised the butcher's knife, and suddenly the dark clouds fell down, covering the eyes and seeing nothing, and after the clouds cleared, they found that Guo Pu and the magpies on the trees were gone. The officers and men and the knife and axemen on the execution ground were in a panic for a moment, and when they found guo pu outside the city, They saw Guo Pu standing on the dark clouds at the top of the street center, and an old man wearing a zodiac robe shouted loudly: "Guo Pu"! So he and Guo Pu climbed up the clouds side by side, and the magpies rose up to the clouds and drove the fog to heaven. Guo Pu was 49 years old.
Went to heaven. Guo Pu was 49 years old.
