The origin of Shi Gui
"Shi Gui" refers to Li He, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, with auspicious words. He is the pioneer and romantic poet of Changji's poems in the middle Tang Dynasty.
It is called "Shi Gui" because Li He's poems are imaginative, and he often uses myths and legends to tell stories from ancient times to modern times. Therefore, later generations often call him "a genius" and "Shi Gui", and his poems are called "the words of a ghost fairy", with the saying that "the genius is too white and the genius is too long".
