It was very popular as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and was valued by immortals and physicians at that time. Later, Taoism inherited it as one of the cultivation methods, and made it more precise, so that the "true qi" circulated in a certain way and order.

1972- 1974 Silk paintings unearthed from Mawangdui Han Tomb in Changsha (the graveyard of princes' families in the early Western Han Dynasty). This is the earliest guide map in the world. The original silk painting is about 100 cm long, which is connected with the 40 cm silk book in the front section. This picture is 40 centimeters high. The upper and lower floors have drawn 44 guide maps of various characters, and each floor has drawn 1 1 picture. The average height of each pattern is 9- 12 cm. Each design is a portrait of a man, male, female, old, young, dressed or bare-backed, all drawn with meticulous brushwork. Except for a few people who exercise with equipment, its operation is mostly unarmed. There is a surgical name next to the picture, and some words can be distinguished. The animals involved are birds, harriers, cranes, tremors, apes, monkeys, dragons and bears, which are similar to the Five-Animal Play but lack the deer play and tiger play (indicating that hua tuo wuqinxi evolved from the guide map). Originally, there was no atlas name, but now the name is determined by the silk collation group of Mawangdui Han Tomb.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Hua Tuo summarized the guiding method into five methods, which were called "five-bird play", namely, tiger play, deer play, bear play, ape play and bird play, which comprehensively summarized the characteristics of guiding therapy, was simple and easy, and played a role in promoting medical care in later generations.
