Guifang, a mysterious enemy who has been harassing our country for nearly a thousand years, appears frequently in pre-Qin literature. What kind of tribe is this Guifang that is constantly at war with the Chinese people? Where did he come from? Why did it disappear mysteriously in the end?

Regarding the Guifang clan, it can be traced back to the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. According to records in the "Dadaili Lineage" and "Shiben Emperor Lineage", Zhu Rong's Wu Hui's son Lu Zhong married Guifang's daughter, and their sixth son Ji Lian was the ancestor of the Chu people. According to the records of the Book of Changes, Gaozong defeated the ghosts in three years. This roughly means that in the 13th century BC, the Shang King Wu Ding launched a war against the ghosts and won after three years of bloody fighting. At this time, the ghost side should have divided into two forces, one of which belonged to the Shang Dynasty and became a vassal state of the Shang Dynasty . The Guihou mentioned many times in historical documents should refer to the Guifang clan that was recovered by King Shang. During the reign of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty, Guihou ranked among the three nobles together with Xibohou and Ehou. Another ghost force continued to wander around the periphery of the Shang Dynasty, intruding on the Chinese nation. According to the " Bamboo Book Chronicles", in the thirty-fifth year of Wu Yi, King Zhou Ji attacked the west and fell to the ghosts and conquered the twelve kings of Zhai. And here, Zhou Wangji is the father of Zhou Wenwang Ji Chang. Judging from various documentary records, the Guifang clan can be said to be the enemy of the Shang Dynasty, and they would fight each other from time to time. By the time of and Zhou Dynasty , wars between the ghosts and China were still frequent. According to the inscription on the "Little Fish Cauldron", King Kang of Zhou once attacked Guifang and scored two blows. However, after the Spring and Autumn , this mysterious tribe that once killed everyone disappeared, and there was no record of the ghost party. As for where this historically noisy tribe lived and what race it was, there has been no conclusion in the academic world for thousands of years. A group of scholars believe that Guifang should be an Indo-European Caucasian. This statement has been quite popular since the Republic of China. Some scholars have pointed out that the original meaning of ghosts is humans and beasts, that is, beastmen. But real beastmen do not exist, so the Guifang clan may be very different from Zhongyuan in appearance, and they are all tall and burly people. There is a word for ghost in the word Kui, so the word "gui" is the same as when we call Europeans and Americans "foreign devils". More importantly, skulls of Indo-Europeans were also found in the sacrificial pits of the Yin Ruins. These Indo-Europeans may have been prisoners of ghosts who frequently fought with merchants. However, in the late Qing Dynasty, scholar Wang Guowei proposed that the ghosts might be Huns, and these ideas were supported by many scholars in the industry. He pointed out that Guifang refers to a foreigner who is different from the Chinese people. At the same time, he also means fear, and ghost and fear have the same origin, and fear also means distant, so Guifang should be a minority tribe in the far northwest. Until the New Year's Eve of the 20th century, people were still arguing about Guifang's movie. It was not until the emergence of the Yin Ruins oracle bones that they understood this public case. According to oracle bone inscriptions, Guifang is a nomadic tribe in northern my country, and its sphere of influence includes today's Shaanxi, northern Shanxi, and western Inner Mongolia.

Moreover, in 1983, historians discovered an ancient city in Qingjian, Shaanxi. It was probably in the Shang Dynasty and was called the Lijiaya site. The connotation of the Lijiaya City Site is obviously different from that of the Central Plains culture, but it is also deeply influenced by the Yin and Shang culture. A large number of bronzes and pottery were unearthed in the city, and archaeologists also discovered a three-legged man with ghost written on it, and the character for ghost is roughly the same as the character for ghost in oracle bone inscriptions. From this, experts combined with historical records to suggest that this should be the location of the city of the Onikata clan. Archaeologists conducted DNA tests on the bones in the tombs and found that the tomb owners were all native East Asians and not Indo-European whites at all. Therefore, Guifang should be the Beidi and other tribes later recorded in the Spring and Autumn history books. They became princes after being conquered by the Zhou people. The surnames Wei and Chidi that appeared during the Zhou Dynasty should be the descendants of Guifang.In other words, the reason why the Guifang people disappeared was because they integrated with the Chinese people, while the Guifang people who were not conquered migrated to southern Siberia and Lake Baikal.
