Bu Ju (Chinese: 卜居; Pinyin: Bǔ Jū; English: Divination) is a short work anthologized in the Chu Ci (楚辭 Songs of Chu, sometimes called The Songs of the South). Although traditionally attributed to Qu Yuan, there is little likelihood that he is the author. (Hawks 2011 [1985]: 203) Rather, "Bu ju" is a biographical or pseudobiographical account of an incident in Qu Yuan's life, mostly in prose, but with a short, incidental verse ascribed to be a quote from Qu Yuan. The anecdotal story tells of how Qu Yuan visited a Great Diviner to resolve some of his moral dilemmas, by means of plastromancy or by casting yarrow stalks. However, in the end the diviner excuses himself on the grounds that in a case such as this one, divination would be of no help.

- 《卜居》是一部短篇作品,收录于《楚辞》(一称《南歌》)。虽然传统上认为是屈原所作,但他是作者的可能性很小。(Hawks 2011 [1985]: 203)《卜居》更是对屈原一生中一个事件的传记或伪传记,主要是散文,但有一段被认为是屈原的名言的简短的附带诗句。该轶事讲述了屈原如何拜访一位大占卜师以解决他的一些道德困惑,方法是通过塑形术或铸造蓍草茎。然而,最后占卜师以在这种情况下占卜无济于事为由为自己辩解。 (zh)
