Abstract
Influenced by the social trend of thought of "metaphysics" in Wei and Jin dynasties, Guo Pu likes to explore the philosophical implication behind things. Under the influence of this mode of thinking, Guo Pu also used the thought of mythological philosophy in the process of interpreting the Book of Shan Hai Jing. Through the comparative analysis of the notes and the original text, it can be found that Guo Pu mainly explained the composition and development of God, Man and God from the philosophical perspective of "viewing things by Tao" and the thought of "Gasification"
