Chapter 12 Chapter 10 Legends of Tang Dynasty and Miscellaneous Books

Chapter 10 Legends of Tang Dynasty and Miscellaneous Books There were a lot of legend-making essays gathered into one collection in the Tang Dynasty, and none was more impressive than Niu Sengru's "Xuanguailu".Sengru's style name is Si'an, originally from Di Taoist in Longxi, who lived in Wanyejian. At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he took the virtuous founder as the first countermeasure. He pointed out that he was out of power, and he did not evade the prime minister when he criticized him. All the examiners were transferred, and Sengru was transferred to Yi Quewei. Mu Zong ascended the throne, and gradually became Yushi Zhongcheng. Later, as the servant of the household department, he worked with Zhongshumen to make peace. At the age of sixty-nine (780-848), his posthumous posthumous name was Wen Jian, which was passed down in two "Books of Tang".Sengru was reclusive by nature, but rather addicted to ghosts. He wrote ten volumes of "Xuanguailu", which have been lost today.Although his writings are not very different from his legends, they always show people that they are pretentious, and they don't seek to be trusted. Li Gongzuo and Li Chaowei's generation are only showing off the skill of their writing, so they still refuse to say that the facts are false. The illusion of conception is self-evident, and for some reason it shows the traces of its deception. "Yuan Wuyou" is an example:

In Baoying, there are yuan and nothing, and they often go alone in the countryside at the end of mid-spring.On the night of the duty, the wind and rain were heavy. After the soldiers were famine, many households fled, so they entered the empty village by the road. After a while, the slanting moon came out, and no one was sitting by the north window. Suddenly, I heard the sound of pedestrians in the west corridor. Not long after, I saw four people in the middle of the moon, all dressed in different clothes. It's like autumn, if the wind and the moon are like this, how can we not say a word in order to expand our life?"...The chanting is so clear that no one can understand it.One of the long-clothed man first chanted, "Qi Dan Lu is like frost and snow, and I send it with a bright and loud voice." The second poem by a short-clothed man said, "When the guests are good at the night, I can see the bright lights and candles." Hold." The third reason is that people in yellow clothes are also short and ugly. The poem says, "The cool spring waits for the morning to draw, and the mulberry and scorpion often come in and out." I will do my work to feed him." Wuyou does not treat four people as different, and the four people do not worry that Wuyou is in the hall, and they praise each other and watch their conceit. Even if Ruan Sizong's "Yong Huai" cannot be added carry on.The four of them returned to their old places late in the day;

If there is no one, look for it. In the hall, there is only the old pestle, lampstand, and broken bucket: I know that the four people did it. ("Guangji" three hundred and sixty-nine) Niu Sengru was in the court, and Li Deyu and Li Deyu set up separate sects, fighting for the party, [1] because he was good at writing novels, Li Zhimen guest Wei Guan asked Sengru to write "Zhou Qin Xingji" [2] to frame it.It is recorded that he thought that he would return to Wanye when he was promoted as a Jinshi, and passed by the foot of Yique Minggao Mountain. Because he lost his way at dusk, he stopped in the temple of Empress Dowager Bo and drank with concubines of the Han and Tang Dynasties.The queen mother asked who is today's son?Then he said to each other, "'The eldest son of the first emperor of today.' Taizhen smiled and said, 'Shen Po'er is also the son of heaven. It's amazing! For details, see "Guang Ji" 489).Because of Deyu's theory, he said that the surname of monks and children should be prophesied, and "Xuanguailu" made many hidden words, intending to confuse the people. As far as Xi Dezong is the Shen Po'er, and Daizong Empress is the Shen Po, it is very rude to the king!" If the rebellion is not contemporary, it must be in the descendants, so "it must be placed in the 'too prison' young elders Law, then the penalty will be moderate and the country will be safe" (see "Li Weigong Wai Ji" IV for details). 〔3〕 It is the strangest thing to use fake novels to trap people, and Gu said at the time that it would not work.But Sengru is famous for his talent and high position, and his works are widely spread in the world.And there are not many imitators. Li Fuyan has ten volumes of "Xuxuanguailu", which "divides the two sects of immortal art and induction", Xue Yusi [4] has three volumes of "Hedong Ji", "also records weird things, and the preface is continued. The Book of Niu Sengru" (see Song Chao Gongwu's "Junzhai Shushuzhi" thirteen); there is also a ten-volume "Xuanshizhi" (5) to record the supernatural deeds of immortals and ghosts, called Zhang Duzi Shengpeng , the descendant of Zhang Jue and the grandson of Niu Sengru (see "Book of Tang" and "Zhang Jianzhuan"), and later suspected that it was "rare but common, so follow its trend" (Qing "Siku Abstract" Zibu Novelist Class III )cloud.

He is like Su E, a martial artist, who wrote "Du Yang Miscellaneous Edition" [6], which records the stories of the Tang Dynasty, and praises the treasures of distant places. It is also said that seeing dreams of ascending to immortality is legendary, but it has changed a little.As for Kang Pian's "Ju Tan Lu" [8], which gradually included more affairs of the world, Sun Chi's "Beili Zhi" [9] devoted to the narration of narrow evil, and Fan Ting's "Yunxi Youyi" [10] focused on singing, although if Closer to human feelings, farther than spirits and monsters, but the selection of things is novel, the writing is meandering, and it is still based on legends.Pei Jia wrote a book, Jing said, [11] it is full of strange things about gods and immortals, and it is decorated with more decorations to confuse the viewers.Cui was engaged by Gao Pian, the deputy ambassador of Huainan Jiedu. Pian later lost his ambition, especially a god, and died because of rebellion.Nie Yinniang Sheng Miaoshou Kong Konger published this book (see "Guangji" 194 for the article), and Ming people took it into a forged Duancheng style "Swordsman Biography", which spread widely and is still written by so-called literati.

Although it may have originated from Zhang Hua's "Natural History", it was still an original creation in the Tang Dynasty.Each chapter has its own title, which is also very remote. For example, those who record Taoism are called "Pot History", those who write and explain codes are called "Bei Bian", those who describe funerals are called "Zi Yi", and those who write about strange things are called "Nuo Gao Ji". And the narrative of choice is also more ancient, colorful and different, which is enough for its purpose.

Xia Qi is the Duke of Dongming, King Wen is the Duke of Ximing, Duke Shao is the Duke of Nanming, Ji Zha is the Duke of Beiming, and the four seasons are the masters of the four directions.The most loyal and filial people will end up being the masters of the underground. For one hundred and forty years, they will teach the immortals and teach them the way.Those who have the virtue of the Supreme Sage, who are destined to receive the letter of the three officials, and become the master of the underground, will be transferred to the five emperors of the three officials for one thousand years, and after another one thousand and four hundred years, they will be able to parade in the Taiqing and become the immortal of the Nine Palaces.

Tian Weng's surname is Zhang, his first name is Jian, and his character is thirsty.Chang Zhangluo got a white sparrow, loved it and raised it, dreamed that Liu Tianweng was angry, and every time he wanted to kill it, the white sparrow would always repay him, and insisted that all parties should treat it, and in the end it would not be able to harm it.Then Tianweng looked down, Jiansheng set up the guests and hosts, and stole Tianweng's chariot, rode on a white dragon, and lifted his horse to the sky.After Jian went to Xuan Palace, Yibaiguan, Du Saibeimen, granted Baique the title of Marquis of Shangqing, and changed the Yin of Baique not to be produced in Xiatu.Liu Weng was out of order, and wandered around the five mountains to cause disasters.
