bowelless gentleman -- nickname of the crab

Wuchanggongzi, whose pinyin is w ú ch á NGG ō ngz ǐ, comes from baopuzi dengshe written by Ge Hong of Jin Dynasty, is another name for crab in ancient times.

The ancients gave crabs four names: "crabs are named for their horizontal movements; Guo Suo is named for their moving sounds; Jie Shi is named for their external bones; and Wuchang is named for their internal emptiness." Therefore, crab has the titles of "Wanxing Jieshi" and "heartless childe". In the book baopuzi written by Ge Hong of Jin Dynasty, it is said that "a man without intestines is a crab." Feng Zhi of Tang Dynasty also said in the miscellaneous notes of Yunxian: "crab is called childe without intestines." Tang Yanqian wrote a poem "crab" in Tang Dynasty, which said: "the childe without intestines is beautiful, and the Buddhist envoys are not allowed to walk in the road."
