What is the mysterious identity of Lu Ban? Is it as simple as a carpenter?

People who have studied architecture or interior design must know who Lu Ban is, but everyone only knows that Lu Ban is a carpenter. I don't know that Lu Ban actually has another mysterious identity, that is, Feng Shui master.

Lu Ban is a very famous craftsman in China. He was born in the Spring and Autumn Period, a craftsman family. Therefore, he studied civil engineering with his family since childhood, and practice makes perfect, and gradually mastered the production skills of civil architecture. With enough practical experience, Lu Ban invented hand tools for carpenters, such as drills, saws, shovels, tape measures, and Mo Dou for marking. The appearance of these tools has improved the working efficiency of carpenters and made woodworking technology develop better. Lu Ban's invention was not limited to woodworking tools. He also invented weapon hooks and ladders, which became common weapons in the Spring and Autumn Period. There are also farm tools, and Lu Ban is also quite successful. He invented tools such as graphite and roller to promote agricultural development.

As can be seen from the above, Lubang was a great craftsman, which promoted the development of China to a certain extent. However, Lu Ban is not only a craftsman, but also has a very mysterious identity. Lu Ban wrote a book, which revealed the mysterious identity of Lu Ban. This book is called "Lu Ban Shu", which is a book of Feng Shui and a wonderful book of civil architecture. The first half of this book is about civil construction technology and the architectural pattern of houses, but the second half is a bit mysterious, mainly about Yin and Yang gossip and Taoist magic, which is called Feng Shui in modern times. This shows that Lu Ban is not only a carpenter, but also a feng shui master.

Luban's influence on China's architecture is far-reaching. Later generations built a building in Longquan Square, Tengzhou, Shandong Province in memory of Luban. Luban Memorial Hall? For everyone to visit and worship.
