Guiguzi was the most famous hermit in ancient China during the Spring and Autumn Period, and it was said that Guiguzi might be a disciple of Laozi. Why is there such an inference? That's because they are all hermits.
The most famous hermits in history are Laozi and Guiguzi. It is said that Guiguzi is a disciple of Laozi. In fact, the book Tao Te Ching may be a little later than Guiguzi.
Guiguzi and Laozi
The only thing that can be found in this eternal mystery is that they are all hermits. We all know that Guiguzi is actually a hermit, yes, a hermit in Guiguzi. Ghost Valley is not like Confucius. Mencius was named after a person's surname. Zi was a respectful name for people in ancient times, and Ghost Valley was a place name.
Someone asked me the day before yesterday, where is the ghost valley? I thought for a long time and said that it might be in Henan or not. Guiguzi already knows that there are many places for farming in his own territory. After all, Guiguzi is a symbol of wisdom in traditional culture. However, things have changed, just like my hometown. It is said that Laozi once practiced in Bochishan.
After thousands of years, even the mountains have been razed, and we can only catch pictures in one or two ancient books and legends. Modern historians have confirmed a new view that Lao Zi was actually later than Zhuangzi.
The concept of yin-yang infinite fish, which we often talk about, was actually not until the Song Dynasty or even later. If there is evidence to support it, what modern historians say is not unreasonable.
Guiguzi, as a hermit, their true identity can no longer be verified. For example, Guiguzi's real name is Wang. Their historical faces have been gradually submerged in the dust of history, and there is also a possibility that they are intentional because they are hermits.
