Liao Yu (943-1018 AD) was born in Huangpi Village, Huangpi Town, Ningdu County, Jiangxi Province in the Tang Dynasty. The name Kechun, the word Boyu, the name Ping’an lay. He is talented and intelligent, erudite and memorable, inherited from a young family, has a good ear and eye, and is familiar with astronomy and geography. At the age of fifteen, he is proficient in the four books and five classics, and his hometown people call it the “Liao Five Classics”.
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examinations were suspended. Liao Yu had no intention of official career, so he concentrated on researching the public, went to the mountains and lived in seclusion. He lived forever in Jinjing Cave of Cuiwei Peak in Qianhua County (now Ningdu). Liao Jinjing met Yang Junsong and admired Yang Gong’s feng shui skills as a god, so he worshiped Yang Gong as his teacher and moved to Lao Xi with his teacher. Therefore, Yang Gong handed down the secret book of Qing Nai and became ancient China. The famous Fengshui scholar, the Emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty named him a national teacher. Later generations regarded him, Yang Yunsong, and Zeng Wenyuan as the three great masters of the South Jiangxi Province.
Liao Yu not only preached Yang Gong Qingnang’s Austrian language, but also interpreted Liao Gong’s nine stars based on Yang Gong’s five stars, dividing the various mountains into nine types: Sun, Lunar, Purple Qi, Golden Water, Tiancai, Tiangang, Gu Yao, Dry Fire, and Sweeping. Each kind of star has nine kinds of changes, and the star is changing a total of ninety-nine and eighty kinds of changes.
According to historical records, Liao Yu’s feng shui works include “Acupoint Method”, “Xietian Ji”, “Observing the Origin of Songs”, “Gua Li”, “A Lantern”, “Nine Stars Biography”, “Huaiyu Jing”, ” Liao Gong’s Sha Scripture, “Into the Style Song”, “Jin Jingao Ji”, “Geography Revealing the Heaven”, “New Seal of the Funeral Law”, “Eight Points Song”, “General Geography”, “Geographical Secrets” and “ Geography Questions and Answers and other works have been handed down to the world.
Liao Yu inherited Feng Shui from his ancestors, inherited from Bu Zewei, studied under Dexing Wu Jingluan, and was taught by Yang Yunsong. He has amazing Feng Shui attainments. According to the Qing Dynasty “Ganzhou Fuzhi”, he spent his entire life searching for the treasures of Fengshui as his career, and he traveled all over Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong and other places. He once selected the house for the Xu family in Raozhou and predicted that in the future, the descendants of your house will be the guardians of our state. In the fourth year of Song Jianyan (1130) after Liao Yu’s death, Sun Guoran, a descendant of the Xu family, was admitted as a Jinshi and became the prefect of Ganzhou. The descendants of the Xu family kept Liao Yu’s prophecy in mind, and made a special trip to Liao Yu’s tomb to hold a grand Cai Sacrificial ceremony and set up a monument for Liao Yu to write down the matter.
Liao Yu lost his father at the age of twelve. He studied diligently. After intensive ventilation and water treatment, his father’s bones were relocated to the humanoid place in the Great Tomb Ridge and later reburied in the Shuishi-shaped cave in Jianning, Fujian. In the second year of Song Tianxi, Liao Yu died at the age of 76 and was buried in the gold hairpin-shaped right-leg cave in Leikeng, Benli, but unfortunately there is no more tomb now.
Liao Yu taught Feng Shui to his two sons (the eldest son Chigoro and the second son Chihachiro), and both of his sons moved to Fujian. Nineteen Lang Liao Bang, the son of Liao Yu’s third brother Keqian, was endowed with extremely high innate endowment. He was deeply appreciated by Liao Yu and taught him everything. He followed Liao Yu and lived in San Lao, so Liao Bang was the San Lao Liao Feng Shui. Really passed on.
The Liao family of the three officials of Xingguo all respected Liao Yu and Yang Gong as the feng shui ancestors of the Liao clan. The Yang Gong ancestral hall built by the Liao family enshrines statues of Yang Gong and Liao Yu as a memorial.
