The Li Guoyou 李国有
Paul PengShare
Li Guoyou was a native of Dengzhou (now part of Shandong Province) during the Yuan Dynasty.
He was well-versed in Taoist doctrines and practices, and could observe the "qi" (a vital energy in traditional Chinese thought) to divine good or ill fortune.

He resided in Hangzhou and made a living by practicing physiognomy (the art of judging character or predicting fate from facial features). Every prediction he made came true, so people regarded him as extraordinary.
He claimed to be able to see through the human body and observe the five internal organs. His ability to treat illnesses was also said to be miraculous, earning him the title of "Immortal" among the people of Hangzhou.
