Abstract:

It is the consensus of academic circles that Leishu originates from Huanglan, but research on the origin of Leishu has never stopped, such as Leishu originates?from the Eclectics, or Leishu originates from Er Ya, again or Leishu originates from Fu, and so on. Among these standpoints of the origin of Leishu, we found that the origin of leishu was polyphyletic not single, the appearance of Leishu resulted from interactions between historical inevitability and contingency.
