Bowuzhi / 《博物志》
[[Bowuzhi|《博物志》]] is the strange-knowledge text associated with [[ZhangHua|张华]] in 87.过年最适合聊玄学!探讨神仙方术发展史(接上集). The episode presents it as a source of unusual stories, omens, transformations, and object lore rather than as a narrowly modern encyclopedia.
Its role in the wiki is archival. Like [[SouShenJi|《搜神记》]] and [[YouyangZazu|《酉阳杂俎》]], it stores odd reports that can reveal how people connected natural signs, artifacts, politics, and supernatural explanation.
