Gu (poison)
Gu () or jincan (; lit. "gold silkworm") was a venom-based poison associated with cultures of south China, particularly Nanyue. The traditional preparation of ''gu'' poison involved sealing several venomous creatures (e.g., centipede, snake, scorpion) inside a closed container, where they devoured one another and allegedly concentrated their toxins into a single survivor. ''Gu'' was used in black magic practices such as manipulating sexual partners, creating malignant diseases, and causing death. According to Chinese folklore, a ''gu'' spirit could transform into various animals, typically a worm, caterpillar, snake, frog, dog, or pig. ==Names== Circa 14th-century BCE Shang Dynasty oracle inscriptions recorded the name ''gu'', while 7th-century CE Tang Dynasty texts first used ''jincan'' "gold silkworm".
